12:55.47MauiAChello there
12:56.24MauiACcan someone tell me why the htc wizard is not supported or not mentioned everywhere one htc linux related pages?
12:58.09*** join/#htc-linux skodde (n=skodde@unaffiliated/skodde)
12:58.14pH5MauiAC: all the supported htc phones are rather similar (pxa2xx), but the wizard uses an omap processor. I think that's the reason.
12:58.55MauiACas far as i can see the port for smartphones also uses omap processors
12:59.20aweluxyes. That's the main reason. From a kernel perspective these processors are very different.
12:59.31aweluxUnfortunately the omap isn'T as well documented as the pxa.
12:59.43MauiACit's a pitty ;)
13:00.12MauiACas someone told me if the omap cpu is used right it has much potential, tough it has lower clockrates than the pxa series
13:00.25aweluxBut since there are working kernels already for recent omap processors it should be possible to boot on the wizard without to much programming.
13:00.53pH5all it takes is one determined/knowledgeable wizard user...
13:01.02aweluxright.
13:01.24MauiACi just thougt it would be nice if there was wa project site in the wiki for the wizard. so users could opt in when they own a wizard and want to help ;)
13:01.47aweluxYou are free to start one. Or a topic on the forum.
13:02.14aweluxBut in the end the isn't much synergy for the initial booting process.
13:02.37aweluxOne person has to understand it and just get it done.
13:02.52aweluxLater for the driver part collaboration becomes important.
13:03.20MauiAChmmm, sounds interesting altough im not expierienced with c oder c++, just coded a little bit of java, php and c# in the last years
13:03.31aweluxThe first challenge would be to switch off all of the dma suing devices while you are still in windows ce.
13:04.21aweluxYou would also need some kind of livesign that you can get from the bootet system.
13:05.04aweluxAnd then you can start to configure an omap kernel with just the minimum of modules and try to boot it.
13:06.01MauiAChmmm
13:17.15MauiAChttp://vivien.chappelier.free.fr/typhoon/install.html seems a good start
13:21.08MauiACseems the OMAP850 is not supported
13:25.38aweluxProbably the first step is to create a wiki page for wizard related research.
13:25.46MauiACi created one
13:25.50aweluxgood :)
13:26.02MauiACand i found someone who already telneted in the device under linux ;)
13:26.19MauiACjust browsing trough his files...there is a Haret loader and a zImage...
