02:38 CovertOps well got my hummingboard ordered =)
02:38 CovertOps i have kind of a stupid question after the fact. is communicating with the hummingboard gpio the same as on the rasperry pi?
02:50 CovertOps jnettlet, can you tell me how the hummingboard communicates with the gpio?
02:58 CovertOps hello
03:27 mk01 CoverOps: looks like not. CurlyMo can't make it work https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/issues/568
07:34 Z0l hello
15:01 max1211 Hi Is it right place to ask about hummingboard ??
15:02 max1211 I wondering if there is some community around hummingboard
15:02 Artox a few plants breaking the ground
15:02 max1211 How hummingboard is compatible with raspberry pi?
15:03 Artox well, HB is capable of all the RPi can do
15:03 Artox but chances are nobnody has tried xyz yet
15:03 Artox and, adaptations to software may well be necessary
15:05 max1211 Thank You. Does "2 Lane CSI-2" mean that Hummingboard supports 2 cameras?
15:06 Artox I have no idea. Someone else will have to answer that
15:11 kgp That's a major demand :) 2 Raspberry cameras on one card. Hope rabeeh will do something for us.
15:39 max1211 Seems like there is 1 camera. 2 lane means that camera is connected with 2 wires or something similar.
15:41 max1211 I do not wish to start with old raspberry. I wish to play with OpenCV. So faster CPU is better for me.
15:42 kgp You have a data channel and an i2c (control) channel
15:42 kgp If I'm right
15:42 kgp Yes definitely :)
15:43 kgp Plate recognition? Face recogn?
16:10 joost_dtn Any one where have any succes pairing an Apple Wireless Keyboard with a Cubox-i2ultra using the onboard bluetooth?
16:11 joost_dtn (and Geexbox)
17:59 balrog hi all
17:59 balrog just ordered an i4Pro to hopefully replace my aging sheevaplug
18:01 CovertOps just ordered my hummingboard with i4pro som too =)
18:54 balrog hmm, maybe I should have ordered one of those instead?
18:59 balrog CovertOps: ^
19:02 balrog just emailed them to change my order...
20:43 zhando hello all.. still wondering why I can't mirror two hard disks with linux raid (md) off the cubox esata port. At least with the 3.10 kernels I've tried to this point.. Can anyone point me to kernels that will work?
21:09 _505 how do you create a good compressed img file? Regular files are compresses (tar.xz) to 330MB. I also have the img file made with dd. This is 2GB. If I compress it using 'xz -z -9 -e' the result is 560MB.
21:09 _505 but if I look at the Android images, both the tar.xz and img.xz are around the same size
21:09 _505 how is this done?
21:24 TrojanHorse _505, I usually do xz -2 image.raw
21:57 _505 that gives me an even larges file, 610MB
