09:04 vpeter jnettlet: if someone wrote that he has 'Cubox-i4 Pro rev 1.2' - which som is inside?
09:34 jnettlet vpeter, that is the the som with with the broadcom wireless
09:49 vpeter Yes, as I expected. But seems u-boot is loading imx6q-cubox-i-som-v15.dtb for it. At least what user is saying.
09:59 jnettlet vpeter, hmmm it is possible that they have the old BCM4329 chip maybe? Perhaps that is not behaving the same as the 4330 regarding pulling down the GPIOs we use for detection
09:59 jnettlet I had definitely tested it, but not specifically inside a Cubox
09:59 vpeter How can he see identify this?
10:18 jnettlet vpeter, you would need to break boot into the u-boot shell and then check the gpio values by hand.
10:19 vpeter Will check this first myself and then ask user to do the same. And compare the result.
11:02 seb_ Hi
12:52 seb_ Hi
12:52 seb_ what type of usb cables I need to make the special cable to fuses the hummingboard pro please ?
13:09 seb_ can I use this cable to make the efuses ?
13:09 seb_ http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Documents/DataSheets/Cables/DS_USBNMC.pdf
13:09 seb_ Hi malte_
13:10 Artox seb_: I used a standard usb extension cord with two male plugs
13:10 Artox there is no need for any ftdi circuitry
13:12 Artox ofc you got to cut it in halves and add the recommended resistor
13:13 seb_ HI Artox
13:13 seb_ Artox: that usb data cable or just standard low price cable ?
13:15 seb_ Artox: 2 usb extension cables then ?
13:15 Artox isn't any low-price usb cable a data cable?
13:15 Artox either yes, a regualr extension cable
13:16 seb_ Artox: thank you :) I will do this
13:19 seb_ Artox: have a good day
13:23 topi` I don't understand how can I load up initrd from UBOOT cmdline? I can load and boot zImage via "bootz 0x10800000 ..." when I've first loaded the zImage to ram, but it rejects any initrd I try to load
13:23 topi` (initrd is the second parameter to bootz)
13:25 vpeter Same as zImage but on different location?
13:26 Artox topi`:
13:26 Artox surely ubtoo has a complaint
13:26 Artox something like raw image not supported?
13:30 topi` yeah, it did not support the initrd format
13:31 topi` which I do not understand, since if I let UBOOT boot automatically, it will actually use that initrd I provided
13:31 topi` initrd is a symlink to my.initrd
13:31 Artox uhm
13:31 Artox you know you cna pass a size argument along
13:31 Artox if the initrd is not mkimage'd, the size argumetn is mandatory
13:31 topi` ah, then probably it is not mkimage'd
13:31 Artox 0xINITRD:0xSIZE
13:31 topi` I think it is not, since I just used cpio to create it
13:31 Artox where size comes from
13:32 Artox ${filesize} directly after ext4load
13:32 topi` what kind of headers does mkimage provide?
13:32 Artox I load the initrd last, and then pass ${ramdiskaddr}:0x${filesize} to bootz
13:33 Artox afaik mkimage provides a checksum, type field, size
13:33 topi` OK
14:30 vpeter Is it required to have suspend enabled in kernel for imx6? If resume is not possible.
19:51 mhilt jnettlet -- I managed to get the parallel ov5640 working, though I do not know what change fixed the issue at this point
19:53 mhilt I had removed the subdev module from the build, renamed all ov5640_int references to just ov5640, and changed the entry in the device tree to ov564x instead of ov5640, as I noticed Freescale has in their tree's
