<theborger>

<keebler>
Window Manager?
<theborger>
i am in the process of reinstalling now. for XFCE
<keebler>
Ah.
<theborger>
i installed LXDE it was ok.
<keebler>
It's the default I install on machine where people want something familiar, not used to Linux, but don't have a lot of resources.

Personally though, I use Fluxbox.
<keebler>
I'm more about speed and hotkeys than flashy UI.
<WarheadsSE>

<WarheadsSE>
I just haven't taken the time to learn one of these tiling WMs, or anything else.
<WarheadsSE>
I know my way around KDE pretty fast.
<keebler>
Although, some could say Fluxbox IS Flashy UI. ;) It sure is pretty to me.
<theborger>
i had a cubieboard plugged into one of those moto laptop docks.
<theborger>
this thing is a monster compaired to that
<WarheadsSE>
Heh, yeah
<keebler>
theborger: Heh, I've got the lapdock 500
<WarheadsSE>
Dual A15 vs single A8
<keebler>
plugged into my EOMA-A20
<keebler>
What has the dual A15?
<theborger>
keebler: it was nice. but a little slow sometimes
<theborger>
this thing is peppy
<theborger>
now to get me a quad arm netbook :)
<keebler>
theborger: What was? (the Cubieboard A10?)
<theborger>
keebler: yea
<keebler>
Ah, yeah.
<theborger>
it was way better then the Pi though
<theborger>
sold the cubieboard for double what i bought it for
<keebler>
rPI ARMv6 @ 700mhz, vs ARMv7 @ 1200mhz

dual 1.4?Ghz
<keebler>
I've got 3 A20-SoM chips all running various flavors, plus my 2 EOMA-A20s. I'd say, depending on how you configure your WM and Networking Interfaces, they can be pretty peppy... BUT, not as fast as the Exynos 5
<theborger>
i got another sd card here, probley stick arch on that one. see how it is
<keebler>
Can't stand booting off SD. :/
<keebler>
boottime sped up 5seconds booting from NAND.
<ssvb>
keebler: the nominal speed for a10 is 1008mhz, and for a20 it is either 912mhz or 960mhz

ssvb: The nominal-default speed for the A20 is set to 912mhz at 1.4v, iirc. However, it can be run at 1008mhz with relative ease and saftey, and I do believe the Mele M5 is running it at the full 1.2ghz?
<keebler>
That said I'm less concerned with Mhz, and more concerned with the GMAC interface. I've yet to see ANYONE employ 10/100/1000 ethernet using the GMAC PHY.
<keebler>
Well, I can't say anyone, I know of one company doing it, but they haven't released the stuff yet.
<keebler>
their.
<keebler>
It seems Olimex is having the same problems the other company is with gmac, not to mention the iMX6's Gbit PHY suffers from a similar issue of limited throughput

hi, someone gave me a nice metal case for a raspberry pi (but not the board itself).
<tzafrir>
The case has holes carved specifically for the pi.
<tzafrir>
I'd like to use that case (for various reasons). But I prefer a different board.
<tzafrir>
Any idea if there's a better board physically compatible with the rpi?
<wumpus>
solidrun has development boards (carrier one) which are almost physically compatible with the rpi, IIRC there is only a small difference in the size/position of the usb
