Does the cubieboard work without needing proprietary blobs the way the raspi does?
<mnemoc>
Spads: yes
<mnemoc>
it can be used fully free, including some 3D and some video decoding
<Spads>
Wow!
<Spads>
Okay, I'm sold :)
<mnemoc>
note the "some". REing the GPU and VPU blobs is still wip
<mnemoc>
but the rest is fully open
<Spads>
what do you mean by RE?
<Spads>
oh I see
<mnemoc>
reverse engineering
<Spads>
but if I wanted to run sugar on this, that woudl presumably work
<Spads>
I just wouldn't get a full GL wotsit
<Spads>
and by video decoding, do you mean like acceleration for particular codecs?
<mnemoc>
yes
<Spads>
okay, but if I tried playing reasonably sized videos in gstreamer or something, would that be painful?
<mnemoc>
you can decode everything using neon, but some codecs are already decoded using free software and the hw accelerator (cedarx)
* Spads
nods
<mnemoc>
if using neon, max 720p. if using cedarx, smooth at 1080p
<Spads>
excellent
<mnemoc>
almost without cpu usage
<mnemoc>
neon is cpu, so you can't do anything else than watching the video :p
<Spads>
yeah that's fine

mnemoc: what are chances of displaying video feeds ( say from a surveillance camera - mjpeg or h264) and using the GPU ( instead of CPU ) for decoding ?
<mnemoc>
the GPU (mali) does 3D rendering, nothing about 2D or video decoding
<FR^2>
But my cubieboard bootet android from the internal nand
<FR^2>
Are there any instructions on how to do that correctly?

FR^2: need to unplug the serial debug connection and reboot it sounds like because some parts of the cubieboard2 can be kept alive by draining power through the serial debug connection! :(

so preorders turned to be orders, good ;)

:)
<focus_it>
FR^2: also check the sdcard has data properly written. All the files should be readable
<popolon>
focus_it, a question, I try to make myself the uBoot part
<popolon>
on the sunxi doc, they speak about filling a field with mac adress
<focus_it>
popolon: i saw your posts earlier - and posted a link to their download area :D
<focus_it>
yes
<popolon>
but I suppose this will fix it on one card only ?
<popolon>
this looks very strange for me
<wooy>
mnemoc: nice, have you tested ethernet?
<popolon>
is it due to a limitation
<mnemoc>
wooy: oliv3r did
<focus_it>
i am not sure - i remember i came across it, but when i booted, it had a proper mac address and i never looked at the issue again
<popolon>
oh, you didn't do that ?
<focus_it>
popolon: for some reason i did not need to
<popolon>
when you say booted, do you mean ubooted or linuxbooted ?
<popolon>
because I want to try netboot
<focus_it>
ah! - i may have booted up the distro which then had that fix i was talking about - which then didn't need the mac address to be set
<popolon>
yes, my question is a little (or more) stupid :)
wolfy has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
<popolon>
I will try by myself after all
<focus_it>
netboot - must definitely set the mac address i guess
* wooy
pings oliv3r
<mnemoc>
wooy: btw, the gmii is not compatible with the code on u-boot, so no netboot possible on CT yet
* wooy
redirects to focus_it
<mnemoc>
the cb2 can netboot, the ct can't *yet*
<popolon>
mnemoc, does the mac adress is still needed in process of creation of uboot
<wooy>
ah, right. I got NAS in mind
<mnemoc>
popolon: I've haven't used netboot yet. but I think so
akaizen_ has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
<popolon>
ok, will try like this first
<popolon>
thanks :(
<mnemoc>
oliv3r mentioned the incompatibility of CT
<mnemoc>
oliv3r mentioned the incompatibility of CT's gmii with our u-boot, not me
<mnemoc>
u-boot does not read script.bin or foo.dtb
<popolon>
so don't need to care about that ?
<mnemoc>
it relies in it's env file
<popolon>
or perhaps to help uboot with started eth ?
<popolon>
don't know enough about boot sequence things
<popolon>
and why there is that in the doc :)

if anyone has 2 to 4 cubieboard1 or 2 that they are desperate to get rid of, then i am in the market :D - i can buy them new, but if they be sitting idle and wasting away, then I'm in the market to buy a couple for a project.

Offer to buy ends in about 12 hours - after that I would probably have placed orders for at least 2 of the units
<GargantuaSauce>
focus_it: where are you located
<focus_it>
Near London - UK
<focus_it>
GargantuaSauce: i can pay by ebay
<GargantuaSauce>
probably not worth it to ship em across the pond
<focus_it>
yes - huge cost - and i meant pay by paypal
<focus_it>
its be a bit funny shipping across pond is about x10 compared to double distance CN/Hong Kong shipping. someone is making a good living out of it!

what is the kind of plug that is on the 12v cable?

3.5" overkill - kill over - just as efficient to use an external sata bay!!!!!!!!!!!!! And you got USB access as well esata port - $15 or less
<froy>
are you talking to me, focus_it?
<focus_it>
froy: yes I got me several ebuyer branded esata bays with grill to let out heat - about £13 or about $20.
