| 03:11 | _dab_ | when using iperf on my i4pro, is there any special parameters to use or just take the defaults |
| 03:18 | _dab_ | With defaults I get 380/130 MBits/sec |
| 04:24 | _dab_ | so we seem have overruns. anyone know anything about this? |
| 05:39 | Juggie | _dab_, i dont belive true gbit is possible |
| 05:40 | _dab_ | Juggie: I know that. It is the overruns I want to stop |
| 08:06 | dtroy | Hi guys, I just wanted to know if anyone had an experience steaming widevine content on these boxes ? |
| 08:13 | jnettlet | dtroy, there is an Freescale distributed binary libwidevine.so for android around. I am not sure if anyone has tested it. |
| 08:14 | dtroy | The only thing I could find was this post: https://community.freescale.com/thread/318115 |
| 08:14 | jnettlet | it was my understanding from looking at other widevine implementations for Android that you need to have secure-boot with authorized keys installed on your platform. |
| 08:15 | jnettlet | I know that when I dev unlocked my Transformer Prime it cleaned out the cryptokeys and my widevine apps like HBO nordic stopped working. |
| 08:16 | jnettlet | dtroy, well Google owns widevine now. There is a libwidvine plugin that comes with Google Chrome on linux. |
| 08:16 | dtroy | * BTWI am widevine certified |
| 08:16 | jnettlet | however, there are two versions. The old API and the new API. most content still uses the old API which is not compatible with the Linux plugin in google chrome |
| 08:17 | jnettlet | oh then you know all of this. |
| 08:17 | dtroy | So... rooting your android doesn't necessarily mean you can't play widevine content. But the provider can block it as a policy |
| 08:18 | dtroy | widevine provides Soc manufacturer keybox which are loaded on to the device at manufacturing time. Which I believe Marvel does |
| 08:18 | jnettlet | with widevine version 1, pre google buyout, rooting you android does not necessarily destroy the keys. it depends what you need to do to root it |
| 08:18 | jnettlet | yes but they will only provide those if the hardware is bootlocked |
| 08:19 | jnettlet | and when it is unlocked they keybox is destroyed. |
| 08:19 | jnettlet | With version 2, the new api I don't think this is necessary any longer. That is what is supported on Chromebooks etc. |
| 08:19 | dtroy | With android 4+ (or maybe 4.1) widevine drm became part of the OS. So theoretically, it's supposed to work out of the box |
| 08:19 | jnettlet | yes |
| 08:20 | jnettlet | that is how I understand it as well |
| 08:20 | dtroy | The other question is: Is there a way to play widevine content without android |
| 08:20 | jnettlet | but I believe that is only protocol 2 |
| 08:20 | jnettlet | let me find the page about it. |
| 08:22 | dtroy | Thanks @jnettlet |
| 08:25 | jnettlet | dtroy, can't dig up the link right now. I think it was on an mplayer/ffmpeg or xbmc list that there was a long discussion about it. |
| 08:27 | dtroy | oh I read the xmbc and ffmpeg thread |
| 08:27 | dtroy | but there was nothing there to suggest it's possible |
| 08:29 | jnettlet | are you interested in widevine on android or linux? |
| 09:02 | purch_ | is it possible to do ubuntu trusty for cubox-i with debootstrap on intel machine? |
| 09:03 | rabeeh | purch_: yes |
| 09:04 | rabeeh | getting the user space installed is doable |
| 09:04 | rabeeh | you need static qemu-system-arm and chroot to it and install things |
| 09:17 | jnettlet | purch_, if you plan on using accelerated Xorg you will need to install an older version than ships with trusty, as the Vivante libs provide an older Mesa abi. |
| 09:21 | purch_ | jnettlet: just headless server |
| 09:26 | rabeeh | i suggest you start with the minimal rootfs, install on it qemu-system-arm and chroot to it |
| 09:30 | purch_ | have to test that |
| 09:30 | purch_ | never used debootstrap before |
| 09:42 | rabeeh | purch_: you don't need to debootstrap |
| 09:43 | rabeeh | http://imx.solid-run.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=769&p=5383 |
| 09:47 | purch_ | aaa, untar only |
| 09:48 | purch_ | nice |
| 11:03 | purch_ | rabeeh: cubox-i is missing @ http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists/trusty/main/installer-armhf/current/images/generic/netboot/ |
| 11:42 | coinsen | can i do a "make menuconfig" after make imx6_cubox-i_hummingboard_defconfig - or will that overwrite some important defaults? |
| 11:57 | rabeeh | coinsen: you can |
| 11:57 | rabeeh | actually the defconfig is a very basic one that doesn't cover lots of configurations required |
| 11:58 | rabeeh | i think the xbmc distros might need to change and beef the config up to support lots of mouses, keyboards, usb dvb devices etc... |
| 11:58 | coinsen | rabeeh: i see, thank you. basically, i'm using the default arch linux kernel right now, but it misses support for lirc and lvm |
| 11:58 | rabeeh | purch_: cubox-i is not there |
| 11:58 | coinsen | so thats all i want to add |
| 12:00 | coinsen | rabeeh: btw, one thing i dont understand is, under network drivers, there is only a driver selected in the 10/100 MBits adapters area. however, the cubox has gigabit ethernet? |
| 12:00 | coinsen | but there is no driver selected under 1000 MBits |
| 12:01 | rabeeh | consen: look at CONFIG_FEC which defines the gig mac inside the i.mx6 |
| 14:19 | _dab_ | rabeeh: I sent you more mail. |
| 14:19 | rabeeh | _dab_: you changed your nick? |
| 14:19 | _dab_ | yes |
| 14:20 | _dab_ | patch had zero effect |
| 14:22 | rabeeh | http://pastebin.com/c7gc8prY |
| 14:22 | rabeeh | _dab_ this should improve RX performance (rmk patch) |
| 14:23 | rabeeh | _dab_: and please turn off DMA API debug - |
| 14:23 | rabeeh | CONFIG_HAVE_DMA_API_DEBUG=y |
| 14:23 | rabeeh | that can be quite costly |
| 14:24 | _dab_ | will do, 10 minutes and I will report back |
| 14:25 | rabeeh | great. |
| 14:25 | _dab_ | should I undo the prior patch? |
| 14:25 | rabeeh | yes. |
| 14:37 | _dab_ | rabeeh: Sorry no (signifcant change) change |
| 14:37 | _dab_ | suprised because ring size usually fixes overruns |
| 14:38 | rabeeh | which switch is that? |
| 14:41 | _dab_ | same FVS318N |
| 14:41 | _dab_ | I only have one switch |
| 14:42 | _dab_ | I recall using ethtool to expand ring size to fix overruns on intel ethernet |
| 14:43 | _dab_ | https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Performance_Tuning_Guide/s-network-common-queue-issues.html |
| 14:44 | _dab_ | I can try a new device wight, if you give me a number to try |
| 14:45 | _dab_ | weight |
| 18:03 | MarcusVinter | Does anyone know how I might get bluetooth working. Ive tried using the rampatch to write the firmware onto the chip, but it wont load hci. Do I have to do something to the kernel to get hci working? |
| 18:09 | davorin | what does "dmesg | grep power" tell you? |
| 18:09 | davorin | http://imx.solid-run.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=461 |
| 18:15 | MarcusVinter | dmesg | grep power returns nothing :( |
| 18:17 | davorin | then you need another kernel..see the thread above |
| 18:17 | davorin | bt is pwoered off then |
| 18:21 | MarcusVinter | :'( |
| 20:08 | purch_ | pfft, cp -R rootfs mnt, lost setuid bits :/ |
| 20:08 | Wizzup | -a |
| 20:09 | Wizzup | better yet, usr rsync or tar |
| 20:09 | Wizzup | (tar with -p) |
| 20:09 | purch_ | I know, but cp should warn if it finds files with +s |
| 20:09 | Wizzup | no it should not |
| 20:09 | Wizzup | :P |
| 20:10 | purch_ | so rarely I do this anymore |
| 20:10 | purch_ | it was the archlinx days many years ago |
