18:59 <pfcode> I installed Arch Linux ARM on my rk2928 tablet! whee!

18:59 <pfcode> I have only two things to do

18:59 <pfcode> 1. run touchscreen on xorg

19:00 <pfcode> 2. run mali400 on xorg

19:00 <pfcode> that's log of X -verbose:

19:00 <pfcode> http://pastebin.com/mC5uYkzH

19:01 <pfcode> I can't figure how to run gpu acceleration, I have only mali.ko and ump.ko modules

19:08 <pfcode> does anyone have any suggestions?

21:06 <ZetaNeta> hi

21:06 <ZetaNeta> i am just from the shop, changed my amlogic crap to a rk2818 (Still mad didnt take a A10)

21:06 <ZetaNeta> And want linux there

21:07 <hramrach> anyone even seen something with a 2818

21:08 <hramrach> 2928 is quite cheap and well known so it has good chance of working

21:09 <ZetaNeta> okay, but i already got this with not much chance of returning it the second time

21:10 <hramrach> pfcode: anything wron with that log? looks fine to me.

21:11 <pfcode> (II) FBTURBO(0): failed to enable DRI2 integration for Mali GPU

21:12 <hramrach> ZetaNeta: it says 2818 is unknown-unknown-600MHz-unknown-unknown-..-USB1.1-..-for e-ink reader

21:12 <hramrach> good luck with that ;-)

21:12 <hramrach> pfcode: are you running as root?

21:13 <ZetaNeta> i got a colorful mpman mp710

21:13 <pfcode> yes, but there is no /dev/drm

21:13 <ZetaNeta> And i am not going away without linux

21:13 <hramrach> is that a mp3 player?

21:14 <pfcode> now i'm using binary drivers from sunxi and that's the log: http://pastebin.com/Gd3J1NL2

21:14 <pfcode> MALI(0): [maliModifyPixmapHeader:191] UMP failed to retrieve secure id

21:16 <hramrach> secure id is basically buffer number

21:17 <ZetaNeta> hramrach, tablet

21:17 <hramrach> try asking ssvb if you ca debug this somehow

21:17 <ZetaNeta> android 2

21:17 <hramrach> or add debug prints which show how buffers are allocated and disposed if there are none to start with

21:20 <hramrach> ZetaNeta: does it come with a SDK? because if not I suspect nobody has working 28xx sauces. But try hanging around longer. Perhaps somebody else with more info ancient devices comes around eventually.

21:20 <ZetaNeta> no

21:26 <hramrach> there are some people with 29x devices but nothing about them on the wiki either :/

21:27 <hramrach> but hey, there aren't even specs for the 2818 and the 29x owners were quite argumentative about the 29x specs ..

21:31 <hramrach> ZetaNeta: are you sure it's 2818 and not 2918?

21:31 <ZetaNeta> yes

21:31 <ZetaNeta> the box says so

21:31 <hramrach> what does the chip say?

21:31 <ZetaNeta> and some on-table apps says about rk28**

21:32 <hramrach> ugh

21:33 <hramrach> ZetaNeta: update the wiki. A 2818 with actual laptop display was observed. It was not even known that it has that kind of interface ;-)

21:35 <hramrach> well, could be expected but no datasheet has leaked so ..

21:40 <hramrach> hmm, actually found a Chinese reference schematic for a tablet http://www.datasheet4u.com/datasheet/R/K/2/RK2818_Rockchip.pdf.html

21:51 <ZetaNeta> I dont need a datasheet, i need a linux kernel sources with a way to install it

22:13 <hramrach> ZetaNeta: so bad news. it does not boot from mmc

22:14 <hramrach> start taking the thing apart :P

22:15 <ZetaNeta> hramrach, Already

22:15 <ZetaNeta> So... next?

22:16 <hramrach> dunno. I have no source for 2818 kernel, really. there *might* be some traces in the other rk sources but then again there might not

22:17 <hramrach> try figuring out how to do a FEL boot since that is probably the most usable boot method this thing has

22:17 <ZetaNeta> is any oner rockchip is compatible like A20 to A10

22:17 <ZetaNeta> s/oner/other

22:18 <hramrach> it might as well be a different CPU architecture :/

22:18 <hramrach> it is a CPU=DSP design with the CPU very weak

22:18 <hramrach> CPU+DSP

22:18 <ZetaNeta> because i thought of unsoldering a 256mb chip and get a gb one from olimex

22:19 <hramrach> it won't work

22:19 <hramrach> it supports 2x256MB

22:19 <hramrach> and different memory types

22:19 <ZetaNeta> "Aw crap"

22:19 <ZetaNeta> Anyone want to exchange anything for my 2818?

22:47 <ZetaNeta> eh... no need anymore

22:47 <ZetaNeta> tablet is dead... first night it was bought....

22:47 <ZetaNeta> Third tablet in a row

22:48 <ZetaNeta> First (A10) - Dead TS. Second (A13) - Dead Screen. Third (rk2818) - Dead Screen.

22:58 <ZetaNeta> i hate this....
