15:00 flips Hm, I no longer seem to get connect with my Apple BT keyboard (CuBox i4Pro), but I guess that would be most relevant in #OpenELEC (which I'm running ATM)
15:10 bencoh prolly yeah
15:23 jnettlet flips, is that with the most recent release?
15:24 jnettlet I don't think they are using the Android bcm4330 firmware that tends to be a bit better behaved with wireless and bluetooth both running.
15:27 bencoh jnettlet: is it in linux-firmware? (and if not, why?)
15:27 jnettlet bencoh, nope I pulled it from Google's android tree
15:28 bencoh is there any license issue regarding redistribution/inclusion,
15:28 bencoh ?
15:28 jnettlet bencoh, no idea. probably need to talk with Broadcom about that. We have merged it into our images because it gives a lot more consistent wireless throughput and much much better AP performance
15:29 jnettlet nope, same licensing...just a different release
15:30 bencoh then it should go in linux-firmware :)
15:31 jnettlet there must be some reason that they included a different one
15:31 jnettlet after all the problems this chipset had, I was just happy to find something that worked reasonably well
15:44 flips jnettlet it's 6.0.3, latest stable, I believe
15:45 flips It used to be a bit lagging after reboot before it started working, but now it's not working at all ... I'll head back into the openelec channel later on :)
15:46 jnettlet flips, okay. I will try and do a build this weekend that has our preferred firmware and will post it. I have been doing builds all along but haven't had time to do any testing to release themm.
15:46 flips Cool. :)
15:52 jnettlet Finally getting caught up on my side projects... Sorry for the neglect
16:02 flip 16:02 * flips is trying to catch up on his projects ... hopefully will do that by next week :)
16:04 vpeter jnettlet: Yes, would be nice if such changes would get in :)
17:33 jnettlet vpeter, oh you are still around... Yes I know my backlog is horrible
19:08 vpeter jnettlet: still :) Just not doing much for obvious reasons.
