17:54 Exaga malte: dank o/
17:55 malte np
18:36 rabeeh hi Exaga
18:36 rabeeh back from work?
18:53 Exaga yessssssssss
18:53 Exaga hey rabeeh how's it going?
18:53 rabeeh good
18:53 Exaga i'm trying to fix the "s0 respawning too fast"
18:54 rabeeh moving Ignition to buildroot
18:54 Exaga nice!
18:54 Exaga hey rabeeh i am right in thinking the HummingBoard i1 comes with a complimentary heatsink
18:54 rabeeh yes
18:55 rabeeh now it comes
18:55 Exaga ok... thanks for the info
18:55 Exaga i've emailled the suppliers because mine didn;t come with one fitted
18:56 rabeeh so initially it didn't; now we ship all with the red heatsink
18:56 Exaga ah
18:56 Exaga so then maybe i got one that was the first batch
18:57 rabeeh yeah
18:57 rabeeh the i1 might heat up a bit under xbmc (heavily using the gpu)
18:57 Exaga right so i might just buy a heatsink
18:57 Exaga yes it does
18:57 Exaga because when i compile i am not gentle >:)
18:58 rabeeh how ungentle are you?
18:58 Exaga gzip -9 not_gentle
18:58 Exaga hahaha :D
18:58 rabeeh i doubt that you can reach high temps when running the processors
18:59 rabeeh even only running the quad processor it's tough to reach high temps
18:59 rabeeh only jmontleon reached high temps sense he has an SSD beneath that is heating everything up
19:01 Exaga well the i2ex sure heats up
19:02 Exaga without that lovely red heatsink on top it would fry i guess
19:02 rabeeh so it's impossible to fry it
19:02 rabeeh i.e. making any phyiscal damage; it would restart before that
19:03 Exaga rabeeh: that's great to know
19:03 rabeeh jnettlet will be adding more fine tuning when to lower down the processor frequency in order to even preventing it from heating up
19:05 rabeeh once that support is adding it will be really really hard to even reach high temperatures
19:08 Exaga sorry rabeeh i am having 5 conversations at the same time on and off the interent lol
19:17 Exaga rabeeh: how do i deal with overscan please?
19:18 rabeeh framebuffer?
19:18 rabeeh i don't know how to do that;
19:18 rabeeh on Android and others with GPU we simply resize the target window rendering
19:18 rabeeh what resolution are you running at?
19:28 Exaga 1920x1080
19:46 rabeeh anyone wants to check a pwm patch for hummingboard?
19:48 rabeeh curlymo is not around
19:48 cbxbiker61 i would do it, but when i boot my image on hummingboard, the hummingboard goes through the boot process and then resets, i have to figure that out at somepoint
19:49 cbxbiker61 rabeeh, have any ideas why an image that works on cubox-i would do that on hummingboard?
19:49 rabeeh latest u-boot?
19:49 rabeeh using right fdt?
19:50 cbxbiker61 u-boot from maybe a month or two ago
19:50 cbxbiker61 fdt?
19:50 rabeeh right device tree
19:50 cbxbiker61 all of the dtb
19:51 rabeeh typically i run 'run autodetectfdt' in u-boot and it will set 'fdt_file' env variable to load (that's the autodetect of device tree)
19:51 rabeeh besides that power issues; that's the only thing i can think of
19:51 cbxbiker61 isn't that automatically set by default?
19:51 rabeeh pepedog had issues with a usb to micro usb cable that is not thick enough
19:51 rabeeh cbxbiker61: it's not
19:52 rabeeh but maybe we should; jnettlet - what do you think?
19:52 cbxbiker61 that's probably it then, great
19:53 jnettlet rabeeh, I do fdt autodetection in SPL, along with dtb memory fixups
19:55 rabeeh oh; i missed that then
19:55 rabeeh i'll try in few minutes
19:57 rabeeh jnettlet: if you are around; just added pwm -
19:57 rabeeh http://pastebin.com/B380A1pZ
19:58 rabeeh afterwards 'devmem 0x020e0224 32 0x4' will change GPIO pin number 7 to be pwm2
19:58 rabeeh afterwards 'echo 0 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip1/export' creates a pwm structure that can be controlled from user space
19:59 jnettlet okay
19:59 rabeeh i'v just created a 1khz with 10% duty cycle
19:59 jnettlet we should probably have curlymo add that to his library
19:59 rabeeh will be testing the other pwm and will send a patch
19:59 jnettlet okay
23:21 cbxbiker61 rabeeh, jnettlet : yeah from looking at mx6_cubox-i.h it looks as if loadbootscript is set (which it is by default) it would not autorun autodetectfdt, so it looks like that has to be set added to uEnv.txt
23:42 Exaga cbxbiker61: that's how i do it :>
