02:25 _dab_ What is the status of the ethernet drivers and UDP?
20:08 paulk-collins greetings
20:09 paulk-collins did anyone try the cubox pro (quad) without any proprietary blobs for graphics?
20:14 paulk-collins also, overall, what non-free software is required for the cubox pro?
20:43 suihkulo1ki paulk-collins: 3d and video acceleration need propiertary code, everything else works with free software
20:43 paulk-collins suihkulo1ki, so VPU decoding can work with free software?
20:44 paulk-collins is there a firmware involved?
20:44 paulk-collins I know there is also a firmware for wifi/bluetooth, but are there others?
20:44 suihkulo1ki paulk-collins: video acceleration = vpu
20:44 paulk-collins ah ok
20:44 paulk-collins so firmware or binary userspace blob?
20:45 suihkulo1ki i think a propiertary lib is needed
20:45 paulk-collins ouch
20:45 paulk-collins is it still usable without it?
20:45 paulk-collins how is cpu-only decoding
20:46 suihkulokki for cpu only decoding, go for cubox i series
20:46 suihkulokki they have NEON
20:46 paulk-collins yeah I'm thinking CuBox-i4Pro
