| 06:42 | jnettlet | agraf, the initial run was done earlier in the month and it has been in the lab testing and doing bringup on the board...etc. |
| 08:11 | agraf | jnettlet: ah, cool, let me know once you have something for remote access (and reasonable upstream enablement) - we can then try and push code into our repos to have something for people to put on there :) |
| 08:11 | agraf | jnettlet: just poke afaerber or me :) |
| 08:33 | topi` | rabeeh: good luck with the board, I'll be patiently waiting for mine :) |
| 08:47 | jnettlet | topi`, shouldn't be much longer. Plus Marvell is still working on upstreaming patches so not 100% there yet. |
| 09:46 | topi` | jnettlet: which subsystems are already working? |
| 09:46 | topi` | I just need ethernet and SATA ;) |
| 09:49 | jnettlet | those do work...as long as you don't need 10Gbps copper |
| 09:49 | rabeeh | yeah |
| 09:49 | rabeeh | 10Gbps is already working too (copper); but still requires testing |
| 09:49 | rabeeh | the power dissipation was a bit over what we expected; so more heatsinks to the copper phys |
| 09:50 | rabeeh | tbh - i'm thinking to talk to Marvell to offer a board that does not have the on-board 10g copper but leave it as SFP+ that people can use external copper / optics or direct cable attach |
| 09:53 | jnettlet | sounds like a good trade-off |
| 09:53 | jnettlet | especially since 10Gbps fiber sfp+ modules can be had for pretty cheap now. |
| 09:54 | bencoh | 10g/sfp+ on solidrun boards? sounds cool :) |
