13:36.35 | prpplague | ok ,rev1 board boots and works with fb, rev2 board boots but appears to have different default values in the lcd controler, both boards have the same revision of the chip |
13:36.42 | prpplague | anyone ever run across that? |
13:36.46 | sorphin | on... |
13:36.57 | sorphin | what board? :) |
13:37.28 | prpplague | can't say |
13:37.32 | sorphin | heh |
13:37.35 | prpplague | lh79520 based |
13:37.46 | sorphin | then how would anyone else have ran across it? :-P |
13:38.21 | prpplague | sorphin: i mean in general terms , where different revisions of a board produce different default values |
13:38.22 | sorphin | 'unless you're talking about integrated into the lh79520 |
13:38.46 | prpplague | sorphin: yea, all of these are values inside the cpu |
13:38.52 | sorphin | 'ah |
13:38.57 | sorphin | nevermind then |
13:39.17 | sorphin | never touched that cpu |
13:39.48 | prpplague | sorphin: sharp doesn't mention anything about dynamic setting of defaults, i.e. gpioa0 is high then xxxx values get set and if its low then yyyy values get set |
13:39.58 | sorphin | hmm |

13:43.20 | sorphin | least people at work don't know about it, keeps stupid things from happening here |
13:44.38 | prpplague | yea, i had they remove mine from the "company birthday list" |
13:46.56 | sorphin | that'd be why no one really knows how old T0mW is |

13:58.43 | prpplague | hmm, anyone know an easy test to see if my fb driver is working? |
14:05.00 | prpplague | where are the guru's when you need one |
14:09.18 | prpplague | yikes |
14:09.35 | prpplague | rmk is reporting that ARM support in glibc is slowing being phased out |
14:16.53 | CosmicPenguin | Morning |
14:16.58 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: hey |
14:17.14 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: whats the best to test a new fb driver ? |
14:17.51 | CosmicPenguin | you don't have a console running on it? |
14:20.20 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: right now i'm running console on a serial port |
14:20.41 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: i was just thinking there was some test i could run, i.e. write some data to /dev/fb |
14:22.57 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: i'm very weak with some fb stuff |
14:23.45 | CosmicPenguin | well, there are three things you can do |
14:23.49 | CosmicPenguin | 1) run a console on it |
14:23.56 | CosmicPenguin | 2) write a little app to render to the screen |
14:24.03 | CosmicPenguin | 3) use a third party framebuffer application |
14:24.50 | CosmicPenguin | Number two is probably what you want |
14:28.34 | prpplague | hmm |
14:28.56 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: what to do for a small app |
14:29.01 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin:hmm |
14:29.26 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: i'm guess if i don't specify a console on the command line it should default to the fb |
14:30.38 | CosmicPenguin | prpplague: a app is really easy - open up the fb, and mmap it |
14:31.01 | CosmicPenguin | prpplague: you know the depth and the ptich, so just write a pattern accordingly |
14:32.24 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: hmm |

14:40.50 | prpplague | pb_: how do you normally test new framebuffer/lcd configurations on your arm systems |
14:44.45 | pb_ | prpplague: usually I just run the X server up on them |
14:45.25 | prpplague | hmm |
14:45.45 | CosmicPenguin | you've got to be kidding me - you turn down Microwindows, but you consider X? |

15:37.22 | CosmicPenguin | heh |
15:40.07 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: i have to admit, i did a lousy job on the fb, mainly because i was hacking the lineo code |
15:41.09 | CosmicPenguin | Hey, there are better people then you that have been reduced to quivering piles of goo after dealing with the Lineo code.. :) |
15:41.16 | CosmicPenguin | Its bad juju |
15:41.23 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: hehe |
15:42.15 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: ok so this code cycles through all 15 levels of color/greyscale? |
15:42.53 | CosmicPenguin | yeah |
15:43.15 | prpplague | neato |
15:43.24 | prpplague | hopefully i'll be able to test in a minute |
15:43.33 | CosmicPenguin | Its a little funky, because a lookup table would have been faster |
15:43.43 | CosmicPenguin | but this way you can change the order of things |
15:43.50 | CosmicPenguin | maybe a rand(16) to mix things up.. :) |
15:44.10 | prpplague | hehe |
15:44.21 | prpplague | i'll tinker with it and see what i can create |
15:44.26 | CosmicPenguin | Now, if stuff is funky there, you can get rid of the for() loop all together |
15:44.42 | CosmicPenguin | and just do a memset(fbbase, 0xAA, YRES * PITCH); |
15:44.50 | CosmicPenguin | or whatever |
15:47.18 | CosmicPenguin | The joke is that drawing on the framebuffer is easy |
15:47.23 | CosmicPenguin | the hard part is drawing something meaningful |
15:47.53 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: hmm, how quick is it suppose to run |
15:47.55 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: ? |
15:48.04 | CosmicPenguin | immediately |
15:48.09 | CosmicPenguin | did it segfault? |
15:48.19 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: naw, came right back to a # |
15:48.25 | CosmicPenguin | ok - thats fine |
15:48.28 | CosmicPenguin | did it draw anything? |
15:48.29 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: i asumme it ran, but was pretty fast |
15:48.40 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: contrast seems to be up too high |
15:48.45 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: gotta fix that first |
15:48.46 | CosmicPenguin | prpplague: 160 x 80 loops - thats pretty quick |
15:49.05 | prpplague | yea |
15:49.12 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: think i'll add some sleeps in there |
15:49.29 | CosmicPenguin | prpplague: you can put a press any key to continue at the prompt if you want |
15:49.36 | CosmicPenguin | but the image should stay persistant on the screen |
15:50.13 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: yea, i wanted some kind of motion to see it changing |
15:50.27 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: probably add something like a 1/2 sec between cycles |
15:54.30 | CosmicPenguin | thats cool |

18:20.53 | prpplague | Crofton_: my question has always been, why does INS treat ppl who are married to US citizens this way? |
18:21.03 | Crofton_ | I've always been curious how they figure they can deport parents of US citizens |
18:21.20 | Crofton_ | Heh, sometimes the marraige is not what it seems |
18:22.17 | Crofton_ | I've seen a case or two like that. In one case we asked the guy if he had consummated the marraige, and he said (emphatically) no |
18:24.10 | TheCollector | anyone know of a good GPS reciever with a serial interface? |
18:27.36 | CosmicPenguin | ugh |
18:27.46 | CosmicPenguin | loading a kernel through gdb is so damn slow |
18:28.48 | prpplague | Crofton_: agreed, but they should make the procedure clear as to what has to be done |
18:29.05 | Crofton_ | oh yeah |
18:29.15 | Crofton_ | immigration policy is dreadful |
18:29.25 | prpplague | Crofton_: we had one form sent back 4 times |
18:29.47 | prpplague | Crofton_: where it had "please list first name and last" |
18:29.53 | Crofton_ | these H111 visas, or whatever they are using to supply a tech work force that is forced to leave after 6 years is outrageous |
18:30.28 | Crofton_ | pork for the tech industry, they want a steady supply of fresh meat to burn out |
18:30.37 | prpplague | Crofton_: first time we put her married name, they sent it back saying it needed to be her maiden, then we sent it in and they sent it back saying it needed to be the married name, and repeat |
18:30.59 | Crofton_ | I haven't made it to that phase yet |

18:32.29 | CosmicPenguin | prpplague: whats it not doing? no display? |
18:39.51 | prpplague | yea, still no display |
18:40.04 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: everthing "looks" correct, but i get nothing |

18:40.25 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: yea |
18:40.31 | CosmicPenguin | does a cat /dev/fb0 return anything sane? |
18:40.46 | prpplague | hmm, no sure |
18:40.50 | prpplague | whats should it do? |
18:41.28 | CosmicPenguin | well, if you ran my program, you should see 01 23 45 67 89 ab cd ef over and over again |
18:42.10 | T0mW | prpplague: you need a 'scope |
18:42.16 | prpplague | yea |
18:42.25 | prpplague | and a EE degree |
18:42.52 | T0mW | bah |
18:42.58 | CosmicPenguin | you said that you got the contrast working |
18:43.02 | CosmicPenguin | so the power is connected |
18:43.19 | CosmicPenguin | I think T0mW is right - you need a scope |
18:43.54 | T0mW | you do need to one to verify timings, otherwise it is poke-n-hope |
18:44.23 | T0mW | prpplague: what if you have a bad connection / burnt pin on the lh79520 board? |

18:47.36 | CosmicPenguin | thats good |
18:48.35 | CosmicPenguin | I need a damn jtag |
18:48.46 | T0mW | prpplague: next time you stop by ebay, lay down $100 for a 100MHz scope. Good investment, then have Donna show you how it works. :) |
18:49.06 | prpplague | CosmicPenguin: after running youre app i do inteded have a repeating sequence |
18:49.18 | CosmicPenguin | thats good |
18:49.37 | prpplague | T0mW: hehe, yea well, i'm broke for the next 2 weeks, plus you really need to know how to use it , hehe |
18:49.55 | CosmicPenguin | Hopefully, that means that you are correctly mapping memory |
18:49.55 | CosmicPenguin | And we'll assume that its the right memory |
18:51.45 | T0mW | prpplague: bah, all you need do is show up on this bat-channel and we'll get you started, right guys? |
18:53.35 | prpplague | bat-channel? |
18:53.55 | CosmicPenguin | I just roam around trying to plug the various scope parts into any holes I find around the office |

19:16.56 | sorphin | quite |
19:17.08 | jacques | I turn 37 tomorrow, not married, no house, and currently no job! :-D :-D |
19:17.40 | jamie | ah, the joys of total freedom eh, jacques! |
19:17.54 | sorphin | jacques: and a miata ;) |
19:18.11 | chouimat | 31 no house, exwife and no jobs |
19:18.13 | jacques | yep, I kinda like this |
19:18.47 | sorphin | well, the house wasn't a requirement of the married, just more of an incentive |
19:18.50 | jamie | When I was made redundant 2.5 years ago, out of 5 people it happened to, I was the really happy one 'cos it meant I could do whatever I like for a while :) |
19:19.23 | jamie | I'd like a house so I could drill holes and put up shelves and things. Renting is restrictive like that. |
19:19.24 | sorphin | heh |
19:19.36 | sorphin | i couldnt' afford to be unemployed |
19:19.45 | sorphin | not even for a short time |
19:20.15 | kergoth | heh |
19:20.24 | sorphin | oh crap, it's kergoth |
19:20.28 | kergoth | i'm unemployed atm, not fun. /me wonders how long he can manage to keep the car |
19:20.33 | jamie | I'm lucky enough that I can afford to be unemployed from time to time. It's why I _like_ shorter contracts - I really need my time to do my own things. |
19:20.33 | sorphin | hide the embedded devices |
19:21.24 | jamie | When I'm working, I still do my own stuff - it's innate in me. But it's too tiring! |
19:22.42 | jamie | I much prefer the risky thing - my financial "cushion" is very important to me for that reason, and it's probably why I don't have a house+mortgage (would remove my ability to take risks). |
19:23.14 | sorphin | well, i also have a car + loans (student) |
19:23.28 | jamie | But at the same time, I would _so_ like to turn one of the rooms into a small industrial complex ;-) |
19:24.27 | sorphin | my 7' rack is just about full |
19:24.57 | jamie | I'd like to get some mechanical stuff together. Begin making more hardware. |
19:25.13 | CosmicPenguin | I need a damn rack |
19:25.14 | CosmicPenguin | and a switch |
19:25.25 | CosmicPenguin | and a box for my new firewall toy |
19:25.38 | jamie | I need a time machine. Swap? :) |
19:25.55 | CosmicPenguin | but since I just dropped the equivellent of a small car on my backyard, nothing is gonna happen in that regard for me for a while |
19:26.14 | sorphin | CosmicPenguin: eh? |
19:26.32 | CosmicPenguin | clarification - ehough to buy a small car |
19:26.42 | sorphin | ah |
19:26.44 | sorphin | why? |
19:26.50 | CosmicPenguin | why not? |
19:27.02 | jamie | car prices vary a lot, it's not revealing so much :) |
19:27.17 | jacques | $46,000 ?? |
19:27.21 | jamie | CosmicPenguin: because you want to buy the switch etc....? |
19:27.22 | CosmicPenguin | heh |
19:27.33 | CosmicPenguin | sod and trees are expensive |
