| 16:06.13 | arokux_h | mnemoc, ah, thanks a lot. I've just looked mele has 4 pins in uart, those ones you have shown have 5 pins, is this ok? |
| 16:06.17 | mnemoc | arokux_h: that is only if you want access to the OTG port and you don't have an old DELL mouse to take apart |
| 16:06.53 | arokux_h | mnemoc, ah! i've accessed this OTG port already. with an old logitech mouse. |
| 16:06.54 | mnemoc | arokux_h: you only connect Tx, Rx and Gnd... and leave VCC (3.3V and 5V) out |
| 16:07.18 | mnemoc | arokux_h: good, then you don't need that nor the usb port |
| 16:07.32 | hno | the 4-pin connector can be found on some old CD-audio cables. |

| 16:39.14 | hno | arokux, the CD-audio cable I have have 3 connectors. Two 2.5mm connetors and one 2.0mm connector. |
| 16:42.19 | ManoftheSea | ok, that's what I did. |
| 16:44.12 | mnemoc | ManoftheSea: in this particular mailing list another top-posted mail or thread-breaker will pass unnoticed :< |
| 16:44.16 | arokux_h | mnemoc, I also start to like jumper wires. So last question before I order. is this combination ok? http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-00mm-2-54mm-40pcs-1-Row-Dupont-Lines-Wire-Cable-2P-1P-Pin-Head-20cm-/270972576245?_trksid=p4340.m185&_trkparms=algo%3DSIC.NPJS%26its%3DI%26itu%3DUA%26otn%3D5%26pmod%3D280839459714%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D8367300543370007180 + http://www.ebay.com/itm/270930411222#ht_6359wt_1274 |
| 16:45.29 | mnemoc | arokux_h: you asked "< arokux_h> mnemoc, maybe you can just tell where have you bought yours and jumper wires?" ... and yes, that was my answer :p |
| 16:46.13 | mnemoc | that is what I use. others use different cables or different ttl/usb converters |
| 16:47.38 | hno | mnemoc, I have both now. |
| 16:48.15 | arokux_h | mnemoc, thanks! hopefully no more connectors/cables anymore. btw, last time the status of eoma was that some connectors should be measured. where are we now? |
| 16:48.51 | mnemoc | hno: doh |
| 16:49.13 | mnemoc | arokux_h: no idea... the answer is "it will be done when it's done" |

| 17:03.20 | hno | mnemoc, responded. |
| 17:04.04 | arokux_h | any recommendations for a SD-Card? |
| 17:12.24 | hno | arokux_h, mine is an old almost broken 64MByte card I got with a camera some eons ago. |
| 17:12.46 | hno | err, it's a whopping 256MByte. |
| 17:13.16 | arokux_h | :) it should be slow to write the kernel image to it now and then |
| 17:19.36 | mnemoc | arokux_h: 3.6M arch/arm/boot/uImage |
| 17:20.08 | mnemoc | you take more transplanting the card than actually writing on it |
| 17:20.09 | hno | don't notice. |
| 17:20.33 | arokux_h | mnemoc, ah, ok. |
| 17:22.21 | mnemoc | having an ssh-capable user space helps a lot too, so you can rsync uImage and .ko's without removing the card and keep the log flowing out the serial port... still the bottleneck is not the speed of the card |

| 18:35.40 | mnemoc | want to reverse it? |
| 18:37.02 | zenitraM | i'll try |
| 18:40.31 | hno | I don't think phoenix cards have much magics on them. |
| 18:41.30 | zenitraM | that's where a tool that turns unimg .dumps into phoenix cards would be useful |
| 18:49.27 | hno | or at least one that turns unimg dumps into bootable cards that reflashes the NAND. |
| 18:51.12 | zenitraM | that's what i meant :) |
| 18:56.38 | mnemoc | I have the "checksum" fileaddsum.exe calculates decompiled, unimg.exe is awfully protected :< |

| 19:22.09 | mikey_w | Hello I managed to install 1.6 firmware on my mele. But I still can't boot an ubuntu sd card. I get unsupported format? |
| 19:22.40 | zenitraM | unsupported format? where? |
| 19:22.59 | mikey_w | in the hdmi output. |
| 19:23.42 | zenitraM | i think that's because it's outputting at a resolution your monitor doesn't support |
| 19:24.15 | hno | zenitraM, thanks! |
| 19:24.23 | zenitraM | uhhhh |
| 19:25.01 | mikey_w | My monitor supports the message? |
| 19:25.21 | zenitraM | nope, that message is *shown* by your monitor |
| 19:26.01 | zenitraM | uhh.. I see mali sources |
| 19:26.16 | mikey_w | I am using a tv set and the base android runs fine. |
| 19:26.41 | hno | zenitraM, a fairly large part of mali is open source so you should. |
| 19:27.00 | mikey_w | I ma using a TV and the base android runs fine. |
| 19:27.08 | mikey_w | am |

| 19:30.42 | mikey_w | zenitraM: I am using a 19" TV that supports 720 DPI? |
| 19:31.15 | hno | mikey_w, then you very likely need to select a different resolution. |
| 19:31.39 | mikey_w | On the T? |
| 19:31.43 | mikey_w | TV? |
| 19:32.01 | hno | do I see a git repository in lichee4.03.tar.bz2? |

| 19:35.11 | mnemoc | scratches his head |
| 19:36.19 | hno | Hmm.. seems download speed got capped. Time rising. |
| 19:36.31 | zenitraM | there is also a unix "pack" tool |
| 19:37.25 | hno | there has always been. |
| 19:37.25 | zenitraM | http://pastie.org/3901495 |
| 19:38.01 | mnemoc | meh, I better download it directly to the server |
| 19:38.31 | mnemoc | eta:7m :D |
| 19:38.53 | zenitraM | there's a build_sun5i.sh |
| 19:39.10 | mnemoc | at home I have eta:46m |
| 19:39.29 | mnemoc | zenitraM: and you say there is a .git ? |
| 19:40.02 | zenitraM | yup. git log shows commits in the kernel |
| 19:40.09 | mnemoc | amazing |
| 19:41.33 | zenitraM | brb dinner |
| 19:41.47 | mnemoc | meh, download to server felt to 2M/s and at home to 400KB :( |
| 19:42.17 | hno | mine started at 6M/s, but have now fallen down to 800K. |
| 19:43.03 | mnemoc | the whole world is downloading it :p |
| 19:43.16 | mikey_w | The demo of ubuntu on the mele is running on a 720 DPI monitor? |
| 19:44.44 | hno | mikey_w, it's most likely running on an full-HD HDMI display. |
| 19:44.56 | hno | but I don't know. |
| 19:45.22 | mikey_w | This is driving me crazy. |
| 19:46.52 | mikey_w | I created the sd card several times by every method shown and the result is always the same, it halts with the unsupported format message. |
| 19:47.38 | hno | mikey_w, there is no such message. |
| 19:48.09 | hno | but it's very likely your monitor shows a message like that if getting fed a signal that it can not display. |
| 19:48.19 | mikey_w | Using the native android the Chinese stream video channels play fine. |
| 19:48.36 | mnemoc | eta:94s |
| 19:48.43 | mikey_w | With sound and sub-titles. |
| 19:48.45 | hno | mikey_w, the two are completely different beasts. |
| 19:48.49 | mnemoc | damn.... I feel like a chil |
| 19:48.51 | mnemoc | d |
| 19:49.16 | mikey_w | Different beasts? |
| 19:49.19 | hno | It's a bit odd considering they claim there is no BSP for A13... |
| 19:49.38 | hno | mikey_w, running Android built for TV output and running Ubuntu. |
| 19:50.11 | hno | 40 s |
| 19:51.32 | mnemoc | extracting :) |
| 19:52.29 | hno | realized he do not have sufficient space to extract on the server. |
| 19:53.36 | mikey_w | Has anyone else seen the format not supported message? |
| 19:54.30 | hno | mikey_w, as zenitraM said that message is a message from your monitor saying that it can not display the signal fed to it. It's not an message from the Mele. |
| 19:54.59 | mnemoc | I was downloading to a tmpfs and when 99% lftpget started ranting it ran out of space... fortunatelly it seems it did the rest on a buffer because when I resized the mounted tmpfs it finished successfully |
| 19:55.27 | hno | mikey_w, unless I am completely mistaken on what message you are seeing and where. |
| 19:55.41 | mnemoc | .repo ... |
| 19:55.54 | mnemoc | has buildroot, linux and u-boot... |

| 20:11.20 | mnemoc | while build_a13.sh refers to arch/arm/mach-sun5i |
| 20:12.01 | penguin42 | mnemoc: Has it got the git tree so you can see the commit for it? |

| 20:18.08 | mnemoc | omg omg omg |

| 20:25.58 | mnemoc | buy a decent tv :p |
| 20:26.30 | mikey_w | Arghhh! |
| 20:26.56 | mikey_w | But how can I predict what T will work? |
| 20:26.58 | zenitraM | or use VGA + the program to enable vga output |
| 20:28.21 | mikey_w | Program where? |
| 20:29.01 | mnemoc | a little toy doing ioctl's to /dev/display |
| 20:29.04 | mnemoc | a little toy doing ioctl's to /dev/disp |
| 20:31.36 | mikey_w | The problem seems to be to get the ubuntu sd card to use VGA. |
| 20:31.58 | mnemoc | it's to turn on the output |
| 20:38.40 | zenitraM | there are .fex configs for "tvdevb" at /tools/pack/chips/sun4i/configs/crane/ |
| 20:39.37 | zenitraM | ...and also two sets of .fexes, one named "crane" and other named "linux" |
| 20:40.22 | hno | u-boot has a12 & a13 in the history. |

| 20:48.57 | hno | doubs they have implemented it. |
| 20:49.07 | mnemoc | the first commit says they did |
| 20:49.24 | hno | UART or ARM debug via JTAG? |
| 20:49.36 | mnemoc | good point :) |
| 20:50.32 | hno | The arm debug "always" works no matter what stathe the hardware is in. Should get that one going. |
| 21:06.51 | t0dbld|work | mnemoc you got any ideas on why its only finding the hdmi in ubuntu |
| 21:07.19 | mnemoc | t0dbld|work: using the ioctl trick to enable the vga |
| 21:07.21 | t0dbld|work | in a gentoo build i got working so far i can see in dmsg it finds a "5 inch screen" |
| 21:07.28 | mnemoc | s/using/use/ |
| 21:07.46 | t0dbld|work | no i want it to work for built in screen |
| 21:07.51 | t0dbld|work | im on a tablet Btw |
| 21:08.13 | mnemoc | no idea, I've never ever touched that image |
| 21:08.24 | t0dbld|work | im using your guys img :-P |
| 21:08.27 | hno | t0dbld|work, have you given it your tablets system.bin? |
| 21:08.36 | t0dbld|work | as a starting point as ther is no source for 3.08 yet |
| 21:08.43 | hno | t0dbld|work, there is.. |

| 21:10.48 | t0dbld|work | thanks hno |
| 21:11.02 | mnemoc | that branch is the code exactly as-in the leak |
| 21:11.39 | mnemoc | trying to clean it a bit into another branch to start then cherry-picking our fixes into it |
| 21:11.46 | hno | with all the extra leaks? |
| 21:11.52 | hno | yes,,' |
| 21:11.57 | t0dbld|work | nice i jsut forked you |
| 21:12.06 | t0dbld|work | me and my team will be helping |
| 21:12.10 | t0dbld|work | well be sure to push back |
| 21:12.19 | t0dbld|work | mainly right now were on a10 tablets |
| 21:12.32 | t0dbld|work | but i might pick up a netbook later jsut for fun :-) |
| 21:12.38 | mnemoc | t0dbld|work: the branch will be allwinner-v3.0-android-v2, but not yet |
| 21:12.38 | hno | t0dbld|work, what are your team doing? |
| 21:12.38 | zenitraM | mnemoc: have you tried compiling with the _crane defconfig? |
| 21:13.12 | t0dbld|work | mnemoc is that brank you for the ubuntu img ... right now im doing the linux side of things other guys will hande android |
| 21:13.17 | mnemoc | zenitraM: i tried a default sun4i, but it was just a greedy impulse, I'll focus in the code now |
| 21:13.43 | t0dbld|work | hno well my plan is duel boot on tablet , android and gentoo , i already got ubuntu and debian and mint mostly working other than display issue |
| 21:14.01 | t0dbld|work | gentoo offers most promise and is my favorite but its being a little more difficult |
| 21:14.07 | zenitraM | given thay they don't care about anything not being tablets, maybe there's something on the config differences that makes it hang |
| 21:14.14 | t0dbld|work | android side we will have CM |
| 21:17.50 | mnemoc | hno: I only pushed linux, uboot is all yours :) |
| 21:18.43 | hno | mnemoc, the linux tree have the same extra leaks. |
| 21:19.04 | mnemoc | diffenret .git or part of the same? |
| 21:19.20 | hno | they messed up in the last merges. |
| 21:19.44 | hno | git log --stat |
| 21:19.49 | t0dbld|work | there is new source for u-boot as well ? |
| 21:20.23 | t0dbld|work | man fell like its my birthday |
| 21:20.25 | hno | yes, adding ICS sparse image support to fastboot. |
| 21:20.27 | t0dbld|work | feel** |
| 21:20.37 | t0dbld|work | OOOOoo |
| 21:20.47 | mnemoc | t0dbld|work: follow hno's uboot repo |
| 21:21.05 | hno | t0dbld|work, there is also my mmc u-boot tree adding lots of things. But no nand or usb support there yet. |
| 21:21.56 | t0dbld|work | hno: ok link ... or is it same avery ? |
| 21:22.13 | mnemoc | github.com/hno |
| 21:22.13 | hno | is hno |
| 21:22.20 | t0dbld|work | ahh ok |
| 21:22.37 | t0dbld|work | ok |
| 21:25.05 | zenitraM | the sources are linked here: http://qware.nl/android4upgrade/index.html |
| 21:25.56 | zenitraM | it's funny that a random foreign small tablet importer is more gpl-compliant than the chip maker.. |
| 21:26.33 | t0dbld|work | its funny that its an OS leak lol |
| 21:29.29 | hno | zenitraM, Allwinner have no GPL obligations to us, and it's quite likely a lot open to it's customers. |
| 21:29.29 | hno | who signed NDA etc... |
| 21:29.48 | hno | lichee-dev being pushed.. should be there in some minutes. |
| 21:30.29 | t0dbld|work | nice |
| 21:31.45 | t0dbld|work | hay what tool chain is 3.0.8 using ? |
| 21:31.53 | t0dbld|work | is it up to arm7 yet ? |
| 21:32.09 | mnemoc | iirc they use codesorce 4.4 |
| 21:32.17 | t0dbld|work | ahh so same one |
| 21:32.22 | hno | doubt.. |
| 21:33.04 | mnemoc | their linux tree is still broken for 4.6 |
| 21:33.20 | mnemoc | some stupid -Werror, but it tells they haven't upgraded |
| 21:42.26 | hno | u-boot pushed. https://github.com/hno/uboot-allwinner/commits/lichee/lichee-dev |
| 21:47.34 | t0dbld|work | nice cant thank you guys enough |
| 21:48.09 | t0dbld|work | to bad tomorrow is mothers day in US :-( cant pull another all nighter when i got a 2 hour drive for brunch |
| 21:48.37 | t0dbld|work | see what i can do in next 8 hours though |
| 21:49.06 | hno | t0dbld|work, we got the news ourselves about 2 hours ago so you catched us smiling ;) |
| 21:49.58 | mnemoc | :) |
| 21:50.08 | mnemoc | zenitraM gave the news :p |
| 21:52.43 | hno | hmm... the u-boot sources actually seems older than what hipboy started the mmc branch from. |
| 21:54.37 | zenitraM | output switching tool at lichee/lichee/buildroot/target/skel/test/display |
| 21:54.48 | zenitraM | <PROTECTED> |
| 21:54.49 | zenitraM | ./fb_test.dat -o 4 9 |
| 21:54.49 | zenitraM | e.g. |
| 21:54.49 | zenitraM | 4 DISP_OUTPUT_TYPE_HDMI __disp_output_type_t |
| 21:54.49 | zenitraM | 9 DISP_TV_MOD_1080P_50HZ __disp_tv_mode_t |
| 21:55.14 | zenitraM | doesn't seem to do much more than just calling the ioctl's. no sources |
| 21:57.56 | hno | and sun5i was already leaked there. |
| 22:05.09 | hno | branch names rearranged. |
| 22:07.43 | zenitraM | some DirectFB code at lichee/buildroot/package/directfb-examples |
| 22:09.59 | mnemoc | so much to eat in so few time |
| 22:14.29 | hno | mnemoc, getting full? |
| 22:16.06 | mnemoc | feeling sick already :< |
| 22:16.22 | mnemoc | need coffee |
| 22:17.15 | hno | evidently there is another master tree. |
| 22:18.11 | *** join/#arm-netbook drgreenthumb (~fletch@drupal.org/user/72475/view) |
| 22:18.39 | hno | toms u-boot tree have clean commits (and reversals of sun5i) where this u-boot tree have those three exdroid merges. |
| 22:18.47 | mnemoc | yes, this stuff is put together for the customers |
| 22:19.31 | t0dbld|work | haha |
| 22:19.36 | t0dbld|work | so does it build |
| 22:19.41 | t0dbld|work | i jsut got sync done |
| 22:27.40 | hno | Hmm.. there is 2 lines + comments modification in bootm that is not in toms tree. |
| 22:29.20 | hno | Seems to shut down nand and kill UART0 clock before startign kernel. |
| 22:30.00 | mnemoc | to give it a fresh start? |
| 22:31.40 | hno | probably. They came in in those exdroid merges. |
| 22:32.06 | hno | together with all other changes Tom have done. |
| 22:32.20 | MaDMaLKaV | good news, finally |
| 22:32.35 | MaDMaLKaV | now to see if we can get a legally usable mali hf module and the license of the vpu code |
| 22:37.53 | hno | mm... |
| 22:48.57 | MaDMaLKaV | mm..? |

| 22:57.26 | mnemoc | :) |
| 22:58.04 | hno | Which Hynix NAND do we have in the Mele? Mine is not readable. |
| 22:58.27 | penguin42 | hno: Can't you read the NAND types electrically? |
| 22:59.21 | mnemoc | hno: http://i.imgur.com/1xd2j.jpg |
| 22:59.48 | hno | penguin42, not talking to the NAND controller yet. |
| 23:00.09 | hno | and that reports an ID, not the chip. |
| 23:00.21 | mnemoc | chip in the picture above |
| 23:00.40 | t0dbld|work | need more power in this laptop |
| 23:01.00 | t0dbld|work | i jsut killed this machine so hard it locked me up and disconencted me :-) |
| 23:02.32 | hno | Odd.. that chip is not in the u-boot allwinner nand driver. |
| 23:22.55 | mnemoc | un-removing sun5i is gratifying |
