| 00:36 | bruceleex | anybody here use a 64gb micro sd android on their cubox |
| 00:42 | bruceleex | helllo? |
| 00:58 | test1_ | Anybody know how to get HDMI audio working on the i4 pro? |
| 00:58 | bruceleex | mine works fine |
| 00:59 | Guest4914 | I'm running Debian using the Igor Pecovnik image... |
| 00:59 | Guest4914 | and it doesn't seem happy. |
| 01:00 | bruceleex | i'm using the android build, trying to get full use of the 64gb microsd |
| 01:00 | bruceleex | but the instructions are kind of shitty, the image file sets it up for a 4gb microsd |
| 01:02 | Guest4914 | Yeah, Cubox is very much a dev toy, unlike the Pi which arrives almost idiot-proof |
| 01:03 | Guest4914 | Interesting...when I try to play audio, the SPDIF port lights up, even though the HDMI cable is plugged in... |
| 01:03 | Guest4914 | ..might be a simple config file switch |
| 01:10 | bruceleex | hrmm |
| 01:23 | bruceleex | wierd |
| 01:23 | bruceleex | i am not sure which partition to extend the data one for android? |
| 01:51 | _unreal_ | I have an original cubox 800mhz etc... I'm trying to find the source for images to convert it from ubuntu to xbmc? |
| 01:52 | _unreal_ | it was given to me but I dont have the password so the current ubuntu install is useless to me. |
| 02:45 | bruceleex | do people actually talk in this channel |
| 03:10 | mk01_ | bruceleex: in different TZ mostly ;) |
| 07:17 | Humpelstilzchen | Exaga: don't tell me you don't know big buck bunny |
| 17:46 | Bishop92 | Anyone figured out how to get wifi working on the i4p? |
| 17:49 | deniska | copy firmware file to /lib/firmware/something-I-dont-remember |
| 17:51 | Bishop92 | I tried ifconfig and it doesn't see the wifi though. Just eth1 and lo |
| 17:51 | Bishop92 | also...linux noob here |
| 17:51 | wrexem | Hi. I might be able to help with this. |
| 17:51 | wrexem | What kind of wireless card is it? |
| 17:52 | wrexem | Builtin, USB, pci-e |
| 17:52 | Bishop92 | umm...let me look, I have a bunch of forums open and someone said they were using 2 different chipsets |
| 17:52 | wrexem | Who is "they"? |
| 17:53 | wrexem | And, what image do you have deployed on your board? |
| 17:53 | Bishop92 | Solid-Run, makers of the CuBox and bane of my existence right now |
| 17:53 | Bishop92 | Ubuntu 12.04 |
| 17:53 | wrexem | Which board? |
| 17:53 | wrexem | And what are you using it for? |
| 17:53 | Bishop92 | I'm using it for digital signage with video |
| 17:54 | Bishop92 | I think this is the chipset, Marvell Armada 510 (88AP510) ARMv6/ARMv7 SoC in a 55nm BGA process package |
| 17:55 | wrexem | So it's connected how? |
| 17:56 | wrexem | or PCI-E |
| 17:56 | Bishop92 | i'm not sure, here's their wiki hardware specs link |
| 17:56 | Bishop92 | http://www.solid-run.com/archive/mw/CuBox_hardware_specification |
| 17:58 | Bishop92 | I think the wi-fi chipset is a bcm4329 |
| 18:00 | wrexem | OK; can you paste me the output of "lsusb" and "lspci" |
| 18:00 | wrexem | the packages those are installed by may be missing from your ubuntu build |
| 18:00 | wrexem | respectively, pciutils and usbutils I think |
| 18:00 | Bishop92 | ok give me a sec....I'm on a different computer |
| 18:01 | Bishop92 | i'm gonna jump off and jump back in on the cubox |
| 18:02 | Bishop92_ | ok, i'm back |
| 18:02 | Bishop92_ | results of lsusb |
| 18:02 | Bishop92_ | Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 007: ID 17ef:6019 Lenovo Bus 001 Device 004: ID 04b3:3025 IBM Corp |
| 18:03 | Bishop92_ | pcilib: Cannot open /proc/bus/pci lspci: Cannot find any working access method. |
| 18:04 | wrexem | Okay. I suspect the issue is within your linux image. |
| 18:04 | Bishop92_ | ok... |
| 18:04 | wrexem | Would it be possible for you to switch distros? |
| 18:05 | wrexem | I can recommend Igor's build as usable on wifi |
| 18:05 | wrexem | It's based on ubuntu 14 I think |
| 18:05 | Bishop92_ | i know there's a workaround to get linux 14 working on cubox.... |
| 18:05 | wrexem | Rather, it's debian Wheezy |
| 18:05 | Bishop92_ | I haven't tried. I literally figured out how to flash the OS last week... |
| 18:06 | wrexem | Oops, there he went, lol |
| 18:06 | Bishop92 | stupid thing....lost connection |
| 18:07 | Bishop92 | I can try Igor's build. I'm a bit new to this so, just google it? |
| 18:10 | wrexem | http://www.igorpecovnik.com/2014/08/19/cubox-i-hummingboard-debian-sd-image/ |
| 18:14 | wrexem | (afk, food) |
| 18:37 | obinou | wrexem: Oh nice website ! I did use this image (and even changed the build script to fit my usage) , i'm glad someone took the time to do it. |
| 18:40 | wrexem | obinou, Igor is the man. |
| 18:40 | wrexem | I recommend donating to him if you have spare funds. |
| 18:41 | wrexem | This is, I think, the most complete build available for humbo/cbi |
| 18:42 | obinou | agreed |
| 18:44 | obinou | damn , he does take only paypal - I do have spare bitcoins (even if , this days, it's not the best value), but cash... I don't have too much |
| 18:47 | wrexem | I think malte knows him. Perhaps he could be persuaded to make a bitcoin address known. |
| 18:48 | Exaga | Humpelstilzchen: then i won't |
| 18:49 | Humpelstilzchen | Exaga? |
| 18:49 | Exaga | 07:17 < Humpelstilzchen> Exaga: don't tell me you don't know big buck bunny |
| 18:49 | Exaga | Humpelstilzchen: ? |
| 18:49 | Humpelstilzchen | Exaga: google it |
| 18:49 | Exaga | why ? |
| 18:49 | Humpelstilzchen | why not |
| 18:49 | Exaga | because it's wasting my time |
| 18:49 | Humpelstilzchen | if you think so.. |
| 18:49 | Exaga | and I never answer a question with a question |
| 18:50 | Exaga | i suggest you do the same :> |
| 18:50 | Humpelstilzchen | Exaga: don't care |
| 18:50 | Exaga | Humpelstilzchen: as i said, it's wasting my time |
| 19:02 | wrexem | Exaga, bbb is widely acknowledged as THE test video. |
| 19:02 | Exaga | thanks wrexem |
| 19:02 | wrexem | Because it's completely free. |
| 19:03 | malte | igor yes,shall i ask him if he takes bitcoins? |
| 19:03 | wrexem | That would be great malte |
| 19:04 | wrexem | idk if he'll get many, but what can it hurt? :) |
| 19:04 | wrexem | I already paypalled him some |
| 19:05 | Exaga | malte: o7 |
| 19:05 | malte | will ask |
| 19:18 | mdeslaur | anyone able to properly play 720p@60fps videos with openelec on the CuBox-i? |
| 19:20 | mdeslaur | if it says iMX-h264 while playing back, does that necessarily mean it's using hardware acceleration, or should I be checking something else? |
| 19:22 | wrexem | It looks like there's a pretty big #openelec channel |
| 19:23 | wrexem | I'm sure someone here could help, but you might try asking there too |
| 19:23 | wrexem | idk anything about it. |
| 19:24 | mdeslaur | ah, thanks wrexem |
| 20:10 | malte | @ wrexem & Exaga : its on his website now |
| 20:10 | Exaga | :> |
| 20:19 | wrexem | obinou, did you hear malte? :) |
| 20:20 | wrexem | 17vT6hV83EQ6rizbWeasfy1tWEzFpzYqEE |
| 20:20 | wrexem | There now it's in the channel as wel |
| 20:20 | wrexem | (he should label it though, malte) |
| 20:20 | wrexem | e.g.: 17vT6hV83EQ6rizbWeasfy1tWEzFpzYqEE (bitcoin) |
| 20:21 | malte | ok |
| 22:51 | topi` | finally got my Hummingboard with the quad core microSOM! |
| 22:52 | topi` | intent is to run the mainline linux kernel on it. how good is the support, or do I really need some Freescale BSP kernel on it? |
| 22:54 | Exaga | nice one topi` |
| 22:54 | Exaga | i have the i2eX |
| 22:58 | topi` | do SDXC (extended capacity) microSD cards work with Hummingboard? Or do I need to get a card with 32GB or less capacity? |
| 22:59 | topi` | I see the SPL needs to be written to offset 1k on the SD, and the u-boot goes to the first FAT partition |
| 22:59 | Exaga | yes |
| 22:59 | Exaga | not sure about microsd cards |
| 22:59 | Exaga | i use samsung evo 32GB |
| 22:59 | Exaga | they seem to work perfectly |
| 23:00 | topi` | Hummingboard has also an eSATA connector, can it boot off of an eSATA drive? |
| 23:01 | Exaga | no... it always needs to boot from the microsd card |
| 23:01 | Exaga | but you can just use it for /boot |
| 23:01 | Exaga | and the SSD can take over |
| 23:01 | topi` | ok |
| 23:01 | topi` | I got a Raspberry PI translucent case for the board, but it didn't completely fit... I think the eSATA connector in the bottom is too thick |
| 23:02 | Exaga | yes that's my problem too |
| 23:02 | topi` | it doens't let the case close completely |
| 23:02 | Exaga | i have been crying about it too lol |
| 23:02 | topi` | also I think the HDMI connector is like 1mm misplaced (from the point of view of the raspberry case) |
| 23:02 | topi` | maybe 1.5 millimeters :) |
| 23:02 | Exaga | i guess it depends which case you use |
| 23:02 | Exaga | i use cyntech cases maninly |
| 23:03 | topi` | maybe there's a case with slightly larger dimensions somewhere |
| 23:03 | Exaga | the i1 and i2 fit the raspi cases perfectly |
| 23:03 | topi` | I just need to find it! |
| 23:03 | topi` | ok |
| 23:03 | Exaga | they do not have the mSATA port underneath |
| 23:04 | topi` | I also want a mPCIe 3G modem in the box, but the modem unfortunately is full-size and the mPCIe slot next to the microSOM is half size only |
| 23:05 | topi` | so I was wondering if the USB data signals are actually coming over to the mSATA slot as well... |
| 23:07 | Exaga | not sure |
| 23:07 | Exaga | but you can get a convertor board ? |
| 23:09 | topi` | what kind of convertor? |
| 23:09 | Exaga | half-size to full-size |
| 23:10 | topi` | right |
| 23:12 | obinou | malte: wrexem : Got you for the bitcoin addr of igor, thanks |
