03:08 Coburn seems rmk isn't here
04:18 aplund I've been asking this in the forums, but I thought I'd have a go here: I found the diagrams showing the upper and lower board schematics for the cubox-i, but I cannot tell how things are connected to the microsom. Is there a schematic for this? My particular issue is how do you find out that the USB_OTG_ID is connected to the GPIO1 pin?
04:22 aplund My only guess is that this is by some kind of elimination of possibilities. The only other pin that the iomux would let you put this on is ENET_RX_ER, but presumably that's already taken up by the Ethernet port (but there is nothing documenting this).
05:56 aplund What's the best time to ask questions here?
06:41 pahartik aplund: Any time is appropriate... If one wants to gather activity statistics, "FreeNode CuBox channel log" is available, seems to have UTC+0100 timestamps
08:44 SYS64738 hi
11:06 rabeeh apund: hi
11:07 rabeeh i saw you previous messages
11:26 jnettlet any one that speaks italian here?
12:31 rabeeh no italians i guess
12:35 SYS64738 I am
12:36 SYS64738 Je suis
12:44 aplund rabeeh: Oh cool!! Do you have any info for me?
13:16 aplund still on the hunt for why uboot thinks that the first usb port is in OTG device mode when I have nothing plugged in
13:17 aplund the results suggest that whatever is going on in GPIO1, it is making the PHY think that it should be in device mode
13:19 SIMOJFJ Hi
13:19 meph1s|work Hi SIMOJFJ
13:19 SIMOJFJ I buy a Cubox-I4 and i dont see nothing in the screen
13:20 meph1s|work which image did you've flashed on the card?
13:20 SIMOJFJ i read all instructions to install the operative system and never run
13:21 SIMOJFJ i try whith Archlinux and Android
13:22 SIMOJFJ when i turn on the Cubox (no sd in the sloot) no see nothing in the screen, are this correct
13:22 meph1s|work yes
13:22 meph1s|work that's correct
13:24 SIMOJFJ ok and now, My computer have Archlinux and Windows 8 - What I have to do to install the operating system
13:24 SIMOJFJ i try the script in linux to create the sd and this fault
13:26 SIMOJFJ sorry meph1s|work are you here?
13:43 meph1s|work ehm.. yes..
14:03 aplund rabeeh: Definitely my bedtime. Let me know on the forums. Thanks.
14:18 rjc hi all
14:18 rjc I was looking on the web pages, including the wiki, but couldn't find the information
14:19 rjc what's the top spect SD card that's supporte?
14:19 rjc i.e. SDHC, SDXC, and what size
14:19 rjc any info and/or links greatly appreciated
14:33 rjc on a similar note - can anyone recommend a *good quality* and *small* power supply for the 4-core cubox-i?
14:33 rjc I live in the UK so it has to have the appropriate plug
14:34 rjc the cheeper the better but not to the extend of sacrificing on quality
14:35 rjc thanks in advance
14:35 rabeeh rjc: SDHC and SDXC up to 64GB are supported and tested
14:35 rabeeh UHS-1 is also supported but only works on the lower speed modes.
14:36 rabeeh i.e. normal speeds mode
14:36 rjc rabeeh: thanks for a quick reply
14:36 rabeeh notice that yesterday Sandisk announced first 128GB SDXC micro SD
14:36 rabeeh i can't wait to get my hands on such a card :)
14:36 rjc rabeeh: aha, that's basicaly what I was after, as I'm about to get a UHS-1 and was wondering if it's worth spending more
14:37 rjc I did see that announcement too
14:37 rjc :)
14:37 rjc 64GB is enough for my needs though - everything else lives on a NAS
14:37 rjc :)
14:55 rjc OK, in that case, could you let me know if there's any point in buying SanDisk Extreme Pro, based on the details found on the manufacturer's website http://www.sandisk.co.uk/products/memory-cards/microsd/ ?
14:56 rjc unless there's no gain whatsoever and Extreme Plus or Extreme would suffice?
14:57 rjc basically, will I get 95MB/s, 80MB/s or 45MB/s read speed from CuBox?
18:23 jmontleon jnettlet, where do you get the binary gpu driver you are using with your kernel? I see this stuff here, but don't know if it applies, and it one applies better than the others... http://repository.timesys.com/buildsources/g/gpu-viv-bin-mx6q
18:24 jmontleon building a 3.10 kernel and hoping to see it in action
18:24 jnettlet jmontleon, nah that is all outdated. You really need to dig through yocto stuff. let me put a tarball in my dropbox
18:26 jnettlet https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/736509/i4pro/gpu-viv-bin-mx6q-3.10.17-1.0.0-beta-hfp.bin
18:28 jmontleon nice. thank you!
18:35 jmontleo 18:35 * jmontleon reads the wonderful lawyer speak and guess he won't be creating an rpm package for that
18:35 jnettlet jmontleon, actually you can if you would like.
18:36 jmontleon I would. I couldn't figure out if that was or wasn't aloud though :)
18:36 jnettlet The beginning is very scary, but if you look the Vivante code it falls under different rules
18:37 jnettlet and it says basically you can use the binaries on any system with Vivante hardware :-)
18:38 jnettle 18:38 * jnettlet notates that he is not, has never been, nor never intends to practice law
18:39 jmontleon :)
18:42 jmontleon if this works I think I'll set up a 'stable' repo somewhere with 3.10, the brcmfmac bluetooth stuff, and the gpu binary driver and a devel one with the 3.14r-rc4 and better stuff
18:42 jmontleon until someday everything is in the upstream kernel and nobody needs it anymore
18:43 jnettlet that is why I based it on Linaro's 3.10 LTS kernel. 2 years of critical updates, so it can just work for a while
18:43 jmontleon makes sense
18:45 jmontleon I might have even started with the 3.10 one first if I had known about it prior to going crazy with 3.13. But I figured, one at a time and not make myself _too_ crazy all at once
19:18 jmontleon jnettlet, any idea what might be the problem here: http://paste.fedoraproject.org/81010/52504513/
19:19 jnettlet jmontleon, looks like I missed a patch. I am still working on KMS
19:19 jnettlet let me take a quick looks I have them all broken out.
19:34 jnettlet jmontleon, can you test this? https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/736509/0001-drm-BrokeIt-include-defines-that-got-clipped-in-prev.patch
19:34 jnettlet my auto-backporting script ran into a problem and clipped that directory. Stupid programmer
19:35 jmontleon trying it now
19:36 jmontleon yes, looks like it's proceeding with that :)
19:46 jnettlet jmontleon, you may also want to enable f2fs and zswap support in your kernels
19:47 jmontleon good to know. I will do that
19:50 jmontleon jnettlet, do I need to remove -Werror=implicit-function-declaration ? http://paste.fedoraproject.org/81021/39352700/
19:51 jnettlet looks like another patch let me look
19:57 jnettlet jmontleon, https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/736509/0001-include-i2c.h-Forgot-my-notes-on-the-i2c-fixup.patch
19:57 jnettlet two screw ups out of 1700 patches isn't too bad :-)
19:57 jmontleon nope :)
19:58 jmontleon giving it another try
19:58 jnettle 19:58 * jnettlet was planning on tackling KMS testing this weekend.
19:59 jas-hacks jnettlet: did you apply all/most of the fsl patches on your 3.10 kernel ?
19:59 jnettlet jmontleon, oh you may need to tweak the device-tree file as well. That is something I know I have to look into for KMS/fbdev to co-exist
20:00 jnettlet jas-hacks, a lot of. I applied 1054 of 17xx patches
20:00 jnettlet If stuff had been upstreamed I favoured that patch
20:00 jas-hacks jnettlet: that must of been fun ;)
20:32 jmontleon jnettlet, have another it looks like: http://paste.fedoraproject.org/81037/35294771/
20:44 jnettlet jmontleon, that error doesn't make any sense.
20:46 jnettlet jmontleon, you can try adding a #include to the top
20:47 jnettlet don't know why that would be missing though
20:49 jmontleon yes, that did it
20:49 jmontleon but now: http://paste.fedoraproject.org/81045/93530478/
21:08 jnettlet jmontleon, at this point I think you should probably let the KMS driver go until I go through it this weekend
21:08 jnettlet the merge obviously didn't come over clean.
21:09 jmontleon no problem. I agree one or two is not a big deal, but with such a large number to potentially be a problem this could get old fast
21:09 jmontleon thanks for your help though
21:09 jnettlet jmontleon, there is a cubox specific config in my repo that I recommend everyone use.
21:10 jmontleon I'll take a look
21:10 jnettlet that kernel and the vivante-imx Xorg driver is the combo that will give proper 3d acceleration under X for now.
22:52 heap_ hi, which deb is the most up to date for cuboxpro 1?
22:56 heap_ 1000 versions of varius OSes for cubox .. but no core distro with packages like xbmc, mpd ah ...
23:00 heap_ so buy 10 cuboxes.. install each with specific embeded OS and at total its same like one pc with consumption etc..
23:34 heap_ :: Starting full system upgrade...
23:34 heap_ :: Replace libusbx with core/libusb? [Y/n]
23:34 heap_ do you have any idea which one to use for arch?
23:40 heap_ y
23:58 dot_ rabeeh: hi - I found your post in forum and want to ask if theres a drop in package with 5Ghz variant of BCM4329 (http://imx.solid-run.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=37#p226)
