| 14:42 | ths1 | hello ! Is there some news about DVI patch kernel ? |
| 14:43 | ths1 | jnettlet: Success ? |
| 16:06 | ths1 | hello ! no news ? |
| 16:16 | davorin | ah my capacitive display samples arrived... |
| 17:18 | ths1 | rabeeh: hello, do you know if jnettlet posted a patch for DVI screen this last Week-end ? |
| 17:33 | nikitis_ | < jnettlet> nikitis, are you using the latest u-boot binaries? We just pushed some fixes last night. |
| 17:34 | nikitis_ | She said she pushed some this weekend, not sure if it's DVI related or not |
| 17:48 | ths1 | nikitis: sorry i don't understand |
| 17:50 | ths1 | jnettlet said to me : "I am working on DVI patches right now. Hang in there. If nothing explodes I will be releasing a new kernel by the end of the weekend that should have support fo rit" |
| 17:51 | ths1 | from http://server.vijge.net/static/cubox/irclog/201404/cubox-20140404.html |
| 17:52 | nikitis | I just posted a snippet from what she told me two days ago |
| 17:52 | ths1 | where can i find latest u-boot binaries |
| 17:52 | nikitis | no clue |
| 18:01 | alpha_one_x86 | Hello, can you confirm that's: the debug cable for cubox-i 4 pro is just usb cable (passive)? |
| 18:04 | deniska | random micro usb worked for me |
| 18:18 | alpha_one_x86 | http://www.erenumerique.fr/articles/6962/USB2-0-Micro-USB-Cable.jpg |
| 18:18 | alpha_one_x86 | ? |
| 18:27 | deniska | yes |
| 18:32 | alpha_one_x86 | thanks |
| 18:33 | alpha_one_x86 | the wiki for boot instruction is correct? (SPL, uboot, ...?) |
| 18:34 | deniska | seems to be mostly correct |
| 18:35 | deniska | I have arch linux up and running with this instruction http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv7/freescale/cubox-i |
| 18:35 | deniska | Too bad I can't figure out how to use gpu acceleration (but it seems nobody really can) |
| 18:39 | alpha_one_x86 | In my case, I need compil my self the kernel |
| 18:41 | dv_ | whats so difficult about GPU accel? |
| 18:41 | dv_ | and acceleration where? for desktop effects? |
| 18:41 | dv_ | note that you need to use a compositor that uses opengl ES for this purpose |
| 18:41 | dv_ | the vivante GL layer is not that fast, and regular GL on an embedded platform is not a good idea anyway |
| 18:43 | deniska | It'd be cool to run Quake3 on that device... |
| 18:43 | deniska | But well, even moving windows around is sloppy |
| 18:44 | dv_ | what desktop environment are you using? |
| 18:44 | deniska | openbox |
| 18:44 | dv_ | with compositing? |
| 18:44 | deniska | no |
| 18:44 | dv_ | moving windows works very fast for me |
| 18:45 | dv_ | and q3a definitely runs fine on the vivante chip |
| 18:45 | dv_ | however, I am not familiar with the archlinux support for the cbi (I use yocto) |
| 18:46 | dv_ | brb in ~40 minutes |
| 20:19 | deniska | hm... |
| 20:19 | deniska | Interesting, will linaro oneiric image be horribly broken after upgrade? |
| 23:53 | cbxbiker61 | i just received my four cubox-i's, this is one nice piece of kit, just the right weight, runs cool |
| 23:55 | deniska | cbxbiker61: i4? |
| 23:55 | cbxbiker61 | yep |
| 23:56 | cbxbiker61 | my first goal is to swap out one of my r-pi's with cubox-i/GeeXBoX |
| 23:57 | cbxbiker61 | i tested the hummingboard 3 months ago, and it worked very well with GeeXBoX |
| 23:58 | DHowett | I replaced my dead cubox with a mini-itx board, and its temperatures and audible fans make me sad. |
