16:14.24prpplaguedrath: any word of someone working on cortex-a8 support?
16:58.19drathprpplague: nope
16:58.50prpplaguedrath: hmmm, i'm looking at the info now
16:59.09prpplaguedrath: first glance seems that the M3 support is almost identical to what i'd expect for the A8
16:59.34prpplaguedrath: any thoughts on it?
17:01.17drathprpplague: guess you'll have to add MMU and cache handling for the -A8, but it definitely should be possible to reuse the -M3 code
17:01.49prpplaguedrath: yea for full debug support
17:02.18prpplaguedrath: how familiar are you with the cortex m3 code?
17:02.58drathprpplague: not familiar :)
17:03.06prpplaguehmm
17:03.13drathprpplague: if you've got any questions you should post them to the list
17:03.27prpplagueisn't much of a mailing list user
17:03.42drathprpplague: Magnus Lundin and Spencer Oliver have worked on the cortex code, and they both watch the list
17:03.58prpplagueeither one on irc?
17:04.29drathprpplague: never seen them
17:04.35prpplagueahh ok
17:07.54prpplaguedrath: anyway ..... how are things? getting some good money from openocd yet?
17:08.20drathprpplague: heh, don't think that will ever happen
17:08.28ali_as_Printed t-shirts?
17:08.40drathprpplague: it turned out that real work gets better money a lot easier ;)
17:08.54prpplaguedrath: hehe, i'm sure not directly, but indirectly i'm sure you'll end up getting more job offers due to openocd dev
17:09.34drathprpplague: yeah, definitely, the experience i gained is worth a lot more
17:09.35ali_as_Produce a solution for free everyone uses then sell to microsoft.
17:10.16ali_as_Who will gradually destroy the userbase and you can start anew.
17:10.46ali_as_makes stabbing motions in the vague direction of sysinternals.
17:10.52drathhehehe
17:11.03drathalways liked their filemon and regmon utilities
17:11.58ali_as_I did use those the most myself.
17:12.07prpplaguedrath: you see linuxdevices did a post on the nail board?
17:12.47drathprpplague: i believe i've read about it, yeah
17:13.28prpplagueshameless plug, hehe
17:14.01prpplaguethe guy that does the windows binaries for openocd doesn't seem too friendly
17:16.27drathhmm? michael is usually very helpfull
17:18.25prpplaguedrath: i'm guessing he thinks i'm trying to sell stuff, i asked  him to put the flyswatter on the list of supported devices, he did add it but added it to third party vendor supported devices
17:19.19prpplaguehttp://www.yagarto.de/howto/openocd/index.html#face
17:41.19drathprpplague: mhh, afaik he didn't want to add .inf files for more devices, but the flyswatter doesn't need one anyway, does it?
17:42.01prpplaguedrath: that is correct
17:45.31prpplaguedrath: we aren't changing the vid/pid
17:45.42prpplaguedrath: so it just uses the standard driver
18:01.18drathprpplague: not sure if he ships the standard inf, i'll have a look tomorrow or over the weekend
18:08.18prpplaguedrath: well i was able to take a freshly loaded windows xp board, install his package and use the flyswatter with no additional drivers
18:08.45drathprpplague: ah, ok, so he's including the standard inf
18:09.12drathprpplague: did you tell him that? i can write him a short mail, too, if you want
18:13.15prpplaguedrath: yea i wrote a short email but didn't hear back, not a big deal just came to mind earlier
