11:59.29DocScrutinizer05you didn't change HSYNC but pixel clock, it seems to me
12:03.34DocScrutinizer05there should be 3 clock lines usually: Hsync, Vsync, and pixel clock
12:04.02DocScrutinizer05the pixel clock might as well be byte clock or even bit clock

13:14.32paul_boddieActually, I tried changing them all, but in the end it was a stupid mistake I made in my debugging code.
13:15.34paul_boddieI was just referring to "HSYNC meant to go high with first pixel of a line, but in fact it goes low, and went high on last pixel of previous line already" which sounds more like data enable than HSYNC.
13:16.06paul_boddieIn fact, inverting data enable made surprisingly little difference.
13:39.41paul_boddieInteresting to see the Qualcomm takeover has been blocked, by the way.

18:13.14kyakhttps://amdflaws.com/ oh for fuck sake
18:13.59kyakpandora's box is opened
18:36.01opboltwhat qualcomm take over?
19:04.14opboltany bugs/doors in older amd cpus?
19:04.40opboltlike AMD Athlon(tm) II X3 440 Processor :)
19:04.54opbolthope not too bad
19:20.01paul_boddieBroadcom wanted to take over Qualcomm. The fact that it was a megamerger should have been a warning sign, if you ask me.

19:55.21DocScrutinizer05the fact that Trump (and his offices) think Qualcomm is national-security relevant tells a lot
19:56.07DocScrutinizer05"we must not lose control over 5G" mhmhmhmhm
20:22.44paul_boddieIt's his "go to" excuse for regulation. He used it with the Lattice takeover attempt, where the Chinese investment company then went and bought Imagination instead.
20:23.11paul_boddieI doubt that he has any problems with, say, big companies getting even bigger.
20:23.41paul_boddieStill, it might be good news if you want to use iMX stuff in the future. ;-)
20:46.53*** join/#qi-hardware zcrc (~pcercuei@181.42.18.40)
21:32.39DocScrutinizer05how us iMX related?
21:32.43DocScrutinizer05is*
21:33.25DocScrutinizer05who bought NXP?
21:35.29paul_boddieQualcomm.
21:36.41paul_boddieQualcomm bought NXP who had bought Freescale whose product iMX is/was.
21:38.41DocScrutinizer05ooh
21:40.04DocScrutinizer05https://www.cnbc.com/2018/02/20/qualcomm-raises-offer-for-nxp-semiconductors.html
21:40.24paul_boddieEven though Intel and Samsung are apparently bigger than even a combined Broadcom/Qualcomm, I'm not sure megamergers are really the answer.
21:40.34paul_boddieEspecially given Qualcomm's history.

21:43.24paul_boddieIs there a Web page about step 2, by the way? Looked briefly on neo900.org and didn't find anything.
21:43.42paul_boddie(Then again, I doubt that I am at my most perceptive lately.)
21:45.43DocScrutinizer05not really
21:45.47DocScrutinizer05~step2
21:45.48infobotit has been said that step2 is http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1444602, or http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1444625
21:46.17paul_boddieThanks!
21:48.00paul_boddieSo I guess that this Maemo-Leste thing has changed the equations around chipsets and compatibility. That you don't strictly need OMAP3 any more.
