14:50 | [LMZ] | Catwich, Yes I am using Debian with xfce. When is the 2d and 3d going to get better? |
15:00 | MarcusVinter | NPX is buying Freescale :/ |
15:01 | MarcusVinter | NXP* |
15:24 | Artox | [LMZ], speaking of opensuse, there it will get better with the next kernel and gpu driver updates |
15:24 | Artox | debian, well on wjeezy you should already get a good experience |
15:24 | Artox | jessie on the other hand waits for the updates too |
15:32 | topi` | there goes freescale, well, there are other almost as good options, like the Tegras |
15:33 | topi` | I was sincerely expecting to see a 64-bit i.MX series chip this year, but it probably won't happen |
15:33 | topi` | well, of course it doesn't stop my Hummingboard running :) |
15:56 | [LMZ] | Artox: Do you have an ETA for the driver update? |
16:11 | Artox | [LMZ] eta: end of february 2015 :) |
16:11 | Artox | so |
16:11 | Artox | bope |
16:11 | Artox | itone day we will wake up, and there it is |
16:11 | Artox | one* |
16:11 | Artox | now, I'll go to bed and hope its soon(TM) |
17:50 | S_Hennig | Tried two different images (ignition and Debian) on two different SD-cards and two different power supplies. Am I understanding correctly that both images are images of a SD-card, not of a partition? I currently don't have a Linux box available to check the partition data on the SD-cards... |
17:56 | [LMZ] | S_Hennig: Do you have VM installed, which you can install Linux and then GParted to check. |
17:57 | S_Hennig | LMZ: currently downloading VM. Will give it a try. |
17:57 | [LMZ] | <-- I don't have a HummingBoard FYI |
17:58 | S_Hennig | I have just got mine an I thought I'd first try to download a pre-made image. But now I am not sure if I am missing something important here. |
17:58 | [LMZ] | If you have a Windows Box, I use the Win32 Disk Imager to apply the IMG file on ym SD Cards. |
17:58 | S_Hennig | Ok, that's what I did, too. |
17:59 | S_Hennig | I am just a bit unsure if the images are images of the whole card, containing partition data, boot-loader image, kernel image, etc., or if they are only images of the system-partition. |
18:00 | [LMZ] | Well, take a look in gpart, hopefully that will help you |
18:00 | S_Hennig | Yep, will do so. Thanks. |
18:05 | [LMZ] | Sorry I am not that much of help.... Im a n00b to this mini stuff but not for linux. |
18:29 | jnettlet | S_Hennig, the images are of the entire card. This is important because the bootloader sectors are copied before the first partition and needed to bootstrap the SOC |
20:47 | Girhes | is anybody watching 3d content on a cubox running openelec helix? |
