i followed http://linux-sunxi.org/Binary_drivers to get hardware acceleration working on a minimal debian, but when i try to run es2gears to test i get this error: libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to open lima (search paths /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/dri:${ORIGIN}/dri:/usr/lib/dri)
<discopig>
what could be causing it?
<discopig>
i tried the workarounds on the wiki
<discopig>
but this is just a bare debian with X and the required packages for mali acceleration

Earlier today, Broadcom announced the release of full documentation for the VideoCore IV graphics core, and a complete source release of the graphics stack under a 3-clause BSD license. The
<plaes>
at least they now admit that "our existing open-source graphics drivers are a thin shim running on the ARM11" :)
<bjoernb>
discopig: did you try to run the test?
<discopig>
the test works ok, but on my a10 board es2gears also runs ok
<code-ninja>
anyone? my internet wen out... i asked a question before :\
<bjoernb>
code-ninja: nobody answered. think about running your chat client in tmux/screen on a server that is always on.

hmm. I'll ask again... its an A20 tablet and Fedora xfce and debian and other images boot but touch is not working. neither does the OTG cable. Any help?

here is my build.prop what device is this
<nove>
rds: the only free developers here, are the ones which free = freedom
<nove>
i know very little about that board, but if the comments in the announce are true
<nove>
the vpu or how to use the vpu are still closed
<nove>
more over still looks like that a blob will be still need to boot the cpu
hurtigbuffer is now known as jelly-home
<libv>
rds has left
<libv>
he was just here to do some shouting it seems
<nove>
i know, this is only to leave a answer in the logs
<nove>
documentation about the vpu can not be release because of the license enforced by patents
FDCX has joined #linux-sunxi
nazcafan has joined #linux-sunxi
<libv>
nove: i got mailed by eben with the good news, and have in the meantime had a chat with the VC4 Reing guys, i will be blogging about this release later today
<libv>
it is not enough to give rpi a free bootloader yet, but it is rather complete gpu documentation and a driver/sample code for another SoC
<libv>
and there is some info in this sample code which massively helps the VC4 REing guys
<nove>
libv: ok, i will read it
<libv>
the bounty is counterproductive though, at least towards creating a well built and long term supported 3d driver
<bjoernb>
libv: any news on the dma_fence side? you were asking for help on this at fosdem. did anybody offer help so far?
<libv>
bjoernb: mlankhorst pushed another version out
<nove>
yes, i agree, is a race to the lower quality that qualifies
<DJJeff>
I have phoenixcard how can I flash a recovery image for my A13 tablet
<bjoernb>
nove: a race is a competition. in competitions there is not so much collobaration.
<nove>
rds: look at cisco with the release of a binary only h264 codec for mozilla to use in webrtc. Is that the best that a h264 patent holder(cisco) can do to preserve h264 importance in the web? What can Allwinner do?
<ssvb_>
libv: my first impression was that this raspberry pi drivers challenge was something like "compile the sources, tweak them to grant access to the hardware registers and route the interrupts, and then boom - everything magically works" :)
<ssvb_>
libv: I guess your blog should provide a better overview of the current situation
<nove>
rds: Even in an alternative reality, if Allwinner would release the source code, and a full well writing documentation, we would be still in the same point of having to write a driver that could be mainlined

<specing>
atleast you wouldn't have to figure everything out
<ssvb_>
libv: if the bounty is expected to be claimed in a matter of a few days or weeks, then it is not counterproductive
<ssvb_>
libv: even if nobody claims the reward really soon, this challenge can be terminated at any time according to their rules
<nove>
specing: it takes time, but finding the function of a register is actually very fun
<DJJeff>
*beep* *beep* *boop *boop* *beep*
<nove>
Personally, i only want from Allwinner to continue to get loots of $ with Android, to keep giving us cheap hardware. And not because a allloser.
<nove>
And not becoming a allloser.

And to keep with good relation with this community, likes is happing. Look what oliv3r is said from the emails he is getting from Allwinner.
<nove>
Is going very well, in the right path.
<nove>
Optimus board creation, i think is direct result of the existence of this community.

nove: more of the existence of the cubieboard and followers i guess
<libv>
and yes, it can be argued that the cubieboard came into existence as a result of this community
<libv>
but all can trace things back to rpi
<libv>
there were things like the pandaboard before
<libv>
but the rpi made arm development boards cheap and popular

i have a sheevaplug. but this hardware is old and the nand flash was shit plus my sd-card-reader did not work. when sheevaplug came out i expected many to follow, but there was a gap until rpi.
<nove>
yes that is right, but with that low cpu its had limits in what it changed
* Wizzup
uses his sheevaplug still
<Wizzup>
after 5 years :)
<nove>
So is working, there is already results showing up, and this community in the frontline of the wave of change.

yeah, finally, booted a debian distro on my sdcard following the wiki
<nazcafan>
there are some errors though, I think I'll spend some time adding some clarifications

<nikrou>
Hi all
<nikrou>
who want my a13 ?
<nazcafan>
bertrik, you mean from mainline?
<nikrou>
I give it
<nikrou>
I'm from Paris
<nazcafan>
why I are you giving it away, nikrou?
<nikrou>
Because I spend too much time on it
<bertrik>
Nazcafan: from the sunxi-3.4 branch for example, that's how far I've gotten so far
<nikrou>
I try to build cyanogen mod for it but didn't succeed
<nazcafan>
well, that's basically what I did, bertrik
<nikrou>
I finally decide to put the old system and I type my command to quickly and instead of dd if=boot.img of=/dev/nandc I write it without the final c and I had no more partitions !!!!!
<nikrou>
Just a big /dev/nand
<nazcafan>
can't you just start again from scratch?
<nazcafan>
libv, I downloaded the video, what player should I use in order to read it?
<nazcafan>
vlc seems to be mute
<libv>
Nazcafan: my players on my older installation all have varying issues
<libv>
so there's no help from anyone there
<libv>
just try any one that works
<libv>
hah

bjoernb: his last twitter message...
<libv>
why is he happy that he doesn't need to talk to customers or the public?
<libv>
i think jem is rapidly becoming a corporate stereotype to me
<libv>
just like bridgman
<nazcafan>
libv, do you know any player on your younger installation that does work?
<libv>
aka "the preventer"
<libv>
Nazcafan: no
<bjoernb>
libv: you mean this: Not going to MWC - and feeling good about it?
<libv>
bjoernb: yeah
<libv>
bjoernb: i am pretty sure he wasn't at embedded world here in nue either
<bjoernb>
libv: did you meet him in person?
<libv>
one would think that the mpd vp would have a big things on his agenda
<libv>
nope
<bjoernb>
i am tired. have a good night and do not dream of jem.
<libv>
hehe, i won't :)
<libv>
night

dannym: feel free to ask for more info
<MSameer>
is anyone working on CEC? I have been trying to poke around in the docs/register guide/code but could not yet get a grasp of how that thing should work
<MSameer>
(I know we don't have any docs for that)
<oliv3r>
ccaione: puneet?
<oliv3r>
MSameer: cec has been merged in 3.4 ages ago
<MSameer>
oliv3r: that's basic support only
<MSameer>
so it turns on the display when hdmi is up but nothing more
<dannym>
ccaione, thanks :-)
<MSameer>
the only thing available is a register, I thought we should get some sort of an interrupt from hdmi but I could not find any irq handlers in the hdmi driver code
<oliv3r>
MSameer: that's all their ass
<oliv3r>
is*
<MSameer>
I was trying to see if I can improve it a bit :/
<MSameer>
I am not asking for help to get it to work. I am trying to see if I can fix it.
