| 01:16 | Sparkler | thinking of getting one of these, just wondering if it has the performance needed for what I plan for it. Does it have enough cpu to run weechat on it as a bouncer/client? |
| 01:29 | pahartik | Sparkler: How many IRC users do you plan to serve? |
| 01:29 | Sparkler | just myself, weechat is an irc client |
| 01:29 | Sparkler | currently it is running on a P4 |
| 01:30 | Sparkler | (.05 load average, just about the onyl thing on the box) |
| 01:32 | pahartik | Sparkler: Performance would be no issue at all |
| 01:33 | Sparkler | awesome, thanks :) |
| 02:38 | cbxbiker61 | i see the cubox-i is now being sold on new-egg, kudos rabeeh! i think solid-run is hitting a homerun with the cobox-i's. |
| 02:59 | cbxbiker61 | i submitted a review of the i4-pro on newegg with links to the jupiter broadcasting video review. |
| 05:54 | Juggie | not on newegg.ca sadly. |
| 05:56 | jnettlet | there is a newegg.ca now? When did that open? |
| 05:57 | Juggie | 3-4 years ago |
| 05:59 | jnettlet | wow it opened when I was in Vancouver and I missed it? damn would have been much nicer for getting dev parts |
| 06:03 | Juggie | http://www.newegg.ca/Info/NewsroomDetail.aspx?ID=467&Type=3 |
| 06:03 | Juggie | 2008 |
| 06:03 | Juggie | 6 years ago |
| 06:04 | jnettlet | you would of thought that going to newegg.com would give you a popup asking you if you want to redirect to newegg.ca |
| 06:04 | jnettlet | horrible marketing |
| 06:06 | Juggie | it does |
| 06:07 | jnettlet | it does now. I am pretty sure if it did when I was in Vancouver I would have known it. I was constantly angered by not being able to get the parts I wanted from NewEgg |
| 06:08 | jnettlet | or it is a real popup and chrome's popup blocker was kicking in. |
| 06:09 | Juggie | it does://ca.pcpartpicker.com |
| 06:09 | Juggie | http://ca.pcpartpicker.com rather. |
| 06:09 | Juggie | will change your life :) |
| 06:09 | jnettlet | too late. CA revoked my VISA 2 years ago. |
| 06:10 | jnettlet | :-( too bad. My wife and I were real happy there. Thanks to Harper's new immigration plan. |
| 06:12 | Juggie | ic |
| 06:12 | Juggie | weird. |
| 06:12 | Juggie | well just pcpartpicker.com for usa version then |
| 06:12 | Juggie | either country its handy |
| 06:12 | Juggie | eg http://pcpartpicker.com/part/western-digital-internal-hard-drive-wd40ezrx |
| 06:12 | jnettle | 06:12 * jnettlet is in Denmark now. |
| 06:19 | jnettlet | oh just saw the WD Black 2 drive. That looks like a perfect Cubox-i companion |
| 08:47 | MikeSeth | jnettlet: your uboot images don't solve the card problem, and show EHCI timeout and READ_CAP error |
| 08:47 | jnettlet | MikeSeth, in u-boot or the kernel? |
| 09:24 | MikeSeth | jnettlet: u-boot |
| 09:24 | jnettlet | MikeSeth, so it just happens with that single card? |
| 09:24 | MikeSeth | jnettlet: no, with all cards of that specific type |
| 09:25 | jnettlet | and the previous behaviour was there was no ehci timeout and the partition table was returned invalid? |
| 09:25 | MikeSeth | jnettlet: yes, though it is still returned invalid |
| 09:26 | MikeSeth | jnettlet: in pre-SPL u-boot the problem doesn't exist, it was introduced by switchover to SPL |
| 09:27 | MikeSeth | I surmise, something is different with SPL hardware initialization codepath |
| 09:29 | MikeSeth | rabeeh: I was thinking, wrt yesterday's gpumem/vpumem hang issue.. is it possible that the hang is caused by allocated memory for both overlapping? |
| 09:31 | jnettlet | Nope, the hardware is initialized the same there may just be some timing differences |
| 09:37 | MikeSeth | strangely rabeeh seems to be unable to reproduce this phenomenon on this specific type of card, though I got mine from the same lot |
| 09:37 | MikeSeth | however it has been also reported elsewhere on i4pro (mine is i1) with a different vendor and card size |
| 09:41 | jnettlet | MikeSeth, do you have time to try a u-boot with a lot more debug output? |
| 09:45 | MikeSeth | jnettlet: gladly, but not for another 3 hours or so, I am in the office, I will do so when I go home for lunch |
| 09:45 | MikeSeth | also note I have no way to capture it other than by making phone snapshots, no serial on i1 |
| 09:52 | jnettlet | MikeSeth, https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/736509/u-boot/uboot_debug.tgz |
| 09:52 | jnettlet | MikeSeth, that is fine. |
| 09:54 | MikeSeth | thanks! |
| 11:53 | mk01 | hello everybody |
| 11:54 | mk01 | any special steps / command to get file from tftp ? ipaddr is set, serverip is set, bootfile is set . works from other machines. issuing "tftpboot" command just failing on "retry count exceeded" |
| 11:57 | jnettlet | mk01, do you have the latest u-boot? There was a patch that was needed to fix some problems with the ethernet phy on the CBi's |
| 12:03 | mk01 | I can try to fetch from git but compiled 3-4 days ago |
| 12:05 | mk01 | On branch imx6. Already up-to-date |
| 12:05 | mk01 | and this is last commit "fecmxc_initialize_multi change from phy id to phy mask" |
| 12:06 | mk01 | from rabeeh |
| 12:06 | mk01 | 3248e6381bdc0ba561e20ee999eabf99 SPL |
| 12:06 | mk01 | 061ba86eee21200ace385f32f74b8bd2 u-boot.img |
| 12:07 | mk01 | can you confirm or not by any chance ? |
| 12:12 | mk01 | also "saveenv" throwing error MMC write protected after soft reboot (reset cmd from u-boot, reboot from host os). hard reset is (unplugging power) ok. |
| 12:14 | mk01 | (U Boot is reporting 2013.10-rc4-gdccc1b0 |
| 12:16 | _rmk_ | if that's based on commit dccc1b0, then it's quite old |
| 12:16 | _rmk_ | and predates the work to support SPL on these platforms |
| 12:16 | _rmk_ | where are you pulling it from? |
| 12:19 | mk01 | url = https://github.com/rabeeh/u-boot-imx6.git |
| 12:19 | mk01 | fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/* |
| 12:19 | mk01 | merge = refs/heads/imx6 |
| 12:19 | mk01 | as it is on the wiki |
| 12:20 | _rmk_ | $ git ls-remote https://github.com/rabeeh/u-boot-imx6.git |
| 12:20 | _rmk_ | efc4835294122212052a8b8b2a23d14fa2b72177 HEAD |
| 12:20 | _rmk_ | efc4835294122212052a8b8b2a23d14fa2b72177 refs/heads/imx6 |
| 12:20 | mk01 | yes |
| 12:20 | mk01 | From https://github.com/rabeeh/u-boot-imx6.git efc4835294122212052a8b8b2a23d14fa2b72177 HEAD efc4835294122212052a8b8b2a23d14fa2b72177 refs/heads/imx6 |
| 12:22 | _rmk_ | well, it should be reporting a version of 2013.10-rc4-gefc4835 then |
| 12:22 | jnettlet | mk01, can you try the u-boot I posted for MikeSeth https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/736509/u-boot/uboot_debug.tgz It has additional debug info |
| 12:22 | _rmk_ | just check that git rev-parse HEAD reports the same hash |
| 12:23 | _rmk_ | jnettlet: I don't think mk01 is running the uboot version he built |
| 12:23 | mk01 | \rev-parse is the same indeed |
| 12:23 | jnettlet | and your dd commands you used? |
| 12:23 | _rmk_ | ok, now check what include/generated/version_autogenerated.h says |
| 12:23 | mk01 | from wiki |
| 12:23 | mk01 | copy paste |
| 12:24 | mk01 | will find cmd history, wait |
| 12:24 | jnettlet | mk01, use those same commands to dd the u-boot images in the tar archive I just linked to. There will be no doubt which version you are running with those :-) |
| 12:27 | _rmk_ | mk01: you can also do: strings -a SPL u-boot.img | grep 2013.10-rc4 which will positively identify the version string in your built objects. |
| 12:27 | _rmk_ | mk01: if that shows 2013.10-rc4-gdccc1b0, then it's a build problem. if it shows the expeted version, it's a problem in how it was copied to the card. |
| 12:30 | mk01 | U-Boot 2013.10-rc4-gefc4835 is compiled image indeed |
| 12:30 | jnettlet | you sure you used the proper device for your sdhc card? |
| 12:31 | mk01 | yes, I'm |
| 12:31 | jnettle | 12:31 * jnettlet is worried you did something bad to another disk |
| 12:31 | mk01 | but the action I remember was from preparing XBian image (.img file) |
| 12:31 | mk01 | so I obviously updated everyone but not my own sd card |
| 12:32 | jnettlet | makes sense |
| 12:33 | mk01 | ok, so I will flash first 2048 sectors from the image to my card and will confirm that bootp is fine. |
| 12:34 | mk01 | quick question to saved parameters to mmc card. if I re-copy this first 2048 sectors to another card, will there be altered environment ? or is there a particular location I should copy ? |
| 12:37 | jnettlet | mk01, the env is 8KB stored at 384KB |
| 12:37 | jnettlet | let me make sure that is the same for disk as memory |
| 12:38 | jnettlet | yes that is correct |
| 12:38 | mk01 | report: version is now reporting as it should |
| 12:39 | mk01 | and BOOTP done in 2s |
| 12:39 | mk01 | thanks |
| 12:41 | mk01 | Och, what a comfortable life suddenly |
| 12:58 | mk01 | jnettlet: please to confirm the settings, for dd that means "skip=384 bs=1K count=8" ? |
| 12:58 | mk01 | settings = saved env |
| 13:00 | jnettlet | to store them? yes that should be correct |
| 13:06 | mk01 | yes, "seek" is the other part ... thanks ! |
| 13:07 | jnettlet | oh yes, you need to get there first :-) |
| 14:09 | MikeSeth | hey mk01 |
| 14:09 | MikeSeth | I need to talk to you about the debian packaging |
| 14:18 | mk01 | whenever you wants. I'm here. |
| 15:37 | xraxor | the android beta 2 is that oficial _505 ? like from SolidRun |
| 16:31 | xraxor | anyone know anything about this http://cubox-i.com/important-update-re-shipping-eco-post-upgrade/ |
| 16:31 | xraxor | ECO post, never heard off :/ |
| 18:06 | _rmk | 18:06 * _rmk_ now has a UHS-1 card |
| 18:09 | hste | _rmk_: how is the speed? |
| 18:11 | _rmk_ | we will see |
| 18:15 | _rmk_ | http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/memory-cards-hdd-odd/memory-cards-accessories/micro-sdhc-pro/MB-MG8GB/EU-spec |
| 18:19 | _rmk_ | I'll give it a go later this evening |
| 18:21 | davorin | i'm very impressed even by the i1 |
| 18:22 | davorin | flawless bluray playback... |
| 18:22 | davori | 18:22 * davorin watching quantum of solace rip.... |
| 18:22 | davorin | will there be a 4k cubox sometime? |
| 18:22 | davorin | though not that many 4k movies besides pr0n (o; |
| 18:25 | davorin | if all pr0n sites were running ipv6, the whole world would be migrated already to ipv6 (o; |
| 18:40 | rabeeh | davorin: which bitrate? |
| 18:40 | davorin | media info shows a total of 35mbits/sec |
| 18:40 | rabeeh | that's the ves |
| 18:40 | davorin | currently at 47% cpu load with 5.1 dts |
| 18:41 | rabeeh | the limitation is typically ddr |
| 18:41 | davori | 18:41 * davorin is still looking for the highest bitrate bluray (o; |
| 18:41 | rabeeh | xbmc uses vpu and gpu so it eats lots of ddr bandwidth |
| 18:41 | davorin | can't find my vc-1 rip....hmm... |
| 18:41 | rabeeh | if you do a gst command line you would see you can fast forwar 2x smooth playback on bluray |
| 18:42 | rabeeh | this means decoding is done 2x times while presenting odd or even frames |
| 18:42 | davorin | ah got it... |
| 18:42 | davorin | iron man is vc-1 |
| 18:42 | davorin | hitch is mpeg-2 |
| 18:44 | davorin | hmm...vc-1 is a problem on the i1 |
| 18:44 | davorin | cpu 56% but no playback.. |
| 18:46 | rabeeh | which distro? |
| 18:46 | rabeeh | GB? |
| 18:46 | davorin | yepp..20140116 |
| 18:47 | davorin | mpeg-2 is playable.. |
| 18:48 | davorin | hmm..which movie was also mpeg-2...paul? |
| 18:48 | davorin | i extra bought 3 blurays for testing (o; |
| 18:49 | davorin | okay..cpu much lower....35%, but only due to that mpeg-2 has ac3 audio tracks only |
| 18:52 | davorin | hmm...hot fuzz is playable nicely |
| 18:52 | davorin | also vc-1 rip |
| 18:52 | davorin | higher cpu load though... |
| 18:55 | jnettlet | _rmk_, excellent |
| 18:59 | MikeSeth | I'm going to hook up a cubox-i to a big ass projector tomorrow |
| 18:59 | MikeSeth | see what happens |
| 19:00 | davorin | is just the projector big or also the picture it throws? (o; |
| 19:02 | davorin | hmm...i4p visited 2.55 as much as rpi... |
| 19:46 | davorin | hmm..after watching vc-1 then playing h.264 crashes xbmc... |
| 20:58 | paharti | 20:58 * pahartik can play SD MPEG-2 video but not HD H.264 video with "Totem" on "SolidRun CuBox Pro" |
| 21:01 | paharti | 21:01 * pahartik gets HD video started fine but after few seconds it slows down, loses audio and displays occasional single frames, CPU at ~45% |
| 21:31 | dv_ | otavio: \o/ |
| 21:32 | otavio | dv_: :) |
| 21:32 | otavio | dv_: doc is updated too |
| 21:32 | dv_ | yeah |
| 21:32 | dv_ | rabeeh: cubox-i is now fully integrated into meta-fsl-arm (and -extra) |
| 21:32 | otavio | http://freescale.github.io/doc/release-notes/current/ |
