<megal0maniac_afk> Makes sense, there's no ID pin so I don't see any other way of doing it
<megal0maniac_afk> Weirdly, it has a 4 port hub. Instead of having the 4 ports on the hub connected to the physical ports, they only connected 3 and branched off the DP DM pair that go to the hub into the 4th physical port
<megal0maniac_afk> So if you were to switch to OTG, all the other USB ports will break

<mnemoc> megal0maniac_afk: basically mru suggested you to use the major/minor of the nodes to see if /dev/nanda and /dev/nand1 are equal
<megal0maniac_afk> mnemoc: I have no idea what I'm comparing against
<mru> ls -l /dev/nanda /dev/nand1
<mnemoc> megal0maniac_afk: but it's basically just a CONFIG_ diff. the compatibility mode will make the current sunxi-nand driver to allwinner's nand%c schema instead of the standard %d
<mru> compare the numbers
<megal0maniac_afk> /dev/nanda doesn't exist
<megal0maniac_afk> That's why I'm asking
<mru> can something that doesn't exist be the same as something that does?
<megal0maniac_afk> If it exists elsewhere, then yes
<mru> so ls -l it elsewhere
<megal0maniac_afk> I don't have elsewhere
<mnemoc> he is preobably trying to follow a tutorial that uses the nand%c notation
<megal0maniac_afk> mnemoc: Well yeah, my question is whether or not nand1 and nand2 are equivalent to nanda and nandb
<mru> then I suggest understanding what that step in the tutorial is actually trying to accomplish
<megal0maniac_afk> mru: None, yet
<mnemoc> megal0maniac_afk: short answer is "yes"
<mnemoc> megal0maniac_afk: nandb is the equivalent of nand2 on legacy kernels or sunxi-3.4 kernels with the compatibility CONFIG_ enabled
<megal0maniac_afk> Interesting. I've got 3.4.43-sun7i

<wickwire> Hi, I'm trying to get libvdpau-sunxi working with gstreamer 0.10 on cubieboard
<wickwire> I already have gstreamer attached to Qt5, I'm trying to have graphically accelerated apps with video support on cubie
<wickwire> I have the graphics part solved,
<wickwire> now I'm trying to integrate gstreamer with acceleration - if possible
<wickwire> so I decided to check vdpau support on gstreamer
<wickwire> I installed sunxi-livdpau using the cedrus wiki page,
<wickwire> and I get mplayer running OK
<smotocel69> wickwire grapshic part is not sloved :)) mali still have binary drivers
<wickwire> smotocel69: well, not open source, agreed, but working
<wickwire> I'm considering it solved from a result standpoint
<wickwire> as we are able to develop qt5 apps on cubie
<wickwire> but regardless
<wickwire> I was trying to incorporate accelerated video
<wickwire> gstreamer seemed like the obvious choice since it's the default qtmultimedia backend
<wickwire> I managed to get vdpau plugins recognized on gstreamer 0.10, on cubie
<megal0maniac_afk> On this topic, I can't get any kind of video playback to work properly. Either lots of lag, or lots of pink and lag
<wickwire> but when I try to use gst-launch to play the big buck bunny mp4, I get undefined symbol for XTranslateCoordinates

kuldeepdhaka has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
<wickwire> I've posted the output of what I have currently running on my cubie A20 here > http://pastebin.com/uah3CDa0
<smotocel69> wickwire This is an experimental VDPAU implementation for sunxi SoCs.
<wickwire> Qt5 is already able to handle usb webcam feeds, using QtMultimedia and GStreamer
<wickwire> as well as some divx files, also using QtMultimedia and GStreamer
<wickwire> smotocel69: yes I'm aware of that, hence I'm experimenting
<wickwire> :p
<wickwire> ehehehehheheeh
<wickwire> and I thought maybe someone had some idea on why the issues on the gstreamer front
tinti has joined #linux-sunxi
kuldeepdhaka has joined #linux-sunxi
<wickwire> as far as I know, which isn't much, VDPAU is nvidia stuff to begin with
<ssvb> wickwire: the error message "undefined symbol: XTranslateCoordinates" in your log seems to be pretty obvious and self descriptive
<smotocel69> wickwire XTranslateCoordinates
<smotocel69> that fuction don't exist
<mru> someone isn't linking to libX11
<ssvb> wickwire: does cedar accelerated video playback work at least in mplayer?
arky has joined #linux-sunxi
<smotocel69> problem is somewhre in x11 libs
<wickwire> ssvb: yes, I do get to play the big buck bunny video
<wickwire> with low CPU usage
<mru> you might be able to trick it into working by setting LD_PRELOAD=libX11.so
<wickwire> mru:
<wickwire> it's working.
<wickwire> gstreamer is playing the bunny
<wickwire> full screen
<smotocel69> =))
<smotocel69> \m/
<ssvb> :)
<wickwire> jesus
<wickwire> I'm still in shock
<wickwire> hang on, let's see if all the bits and pieces go all the way in Qt...
<megal0maniac_afk> ssvb: Have you used cubieez? I see you've posted to the thread
<ssvb> megal0maniac_afk: which thread?
<wickwire> ok, Qt qmlvideofx is still going at it with poor performance, but it's a start,
<megal0maniac_afk> Am I expecting too much to think that video playback should work out of the box?
<wickwire> I'll see if I can go from gstreamer to qtmultimedia and qt, for the last step - the qmlvideofx demo app
<wickwire> many thanks guys

<libv> megal0maniac_afk: isn't it an iteaduino plus a20?
<megal0maniac_afk> libv: No, it's an ibox
<wickwire> I'll gather up all the notes so far and post them on the Qt5 thread at the forums and see if I can take it from there!
<libv> megal0maniac_afk: it is not an iteaduino plus a20 in a plastic case?
<megal0maniac_afk> libv: No. Different base board
<libv> megal0maniac_afk: ok
<megal0maniac_afk> It has TOSLINK and 4 USB ports, but no analogue audio etc
<libv> megal0maniac_afk: it's amazing how itead didn't do an OSHW base board this time.
<megal0maniac_afk> But see? I made the wiki page for you :)
<megal0maniac_afk> (And me, and everyone else)
<libv> we had quite the discussion last time
<ssvb> wickwire: don't forget to report and/or submit a fix for your missing -lX11 linking to https://github.com/linux-sunxi/libvdpau-sunxi/issues
<libv> as they used the oshw logo, but didn't comply in any way
<megal0maniac_afk> libv: And the board source files are cadence rubbish again
<wickwire> ssvb: ok I'll do that too
<ssvb> wickwire: that's would be the right place and not Qt5 phorum ;)
<libv> they have source files, but didn't use the logo?
<libv> ok
<megal0maniac_afk> Yeah, I got quite a bit of info out of the schematic
<lioka> if someone going to add -lX11, it wouldbe nice to have -lm too
<ssvb> lioka: guys, github has an issue tracker for a reason :)
<mru> ssvb: is there also a reason it sucks?
<libv> megal0maniac_afk: does this iteaduino-plus-a20 and the ibox baseboard use the standard iteaduino-plus-a20 .fex and u-boot targets?
<megal0maniac_afk> libv: I'm not quite at that level yet ;)
<megal0maniac_afk> What do you mean?
<ssvb> mru: it does not scale for big projects, but still can be used for handling a dozen or two bugs just fine
<mru> if the entire bug description fits on a single line, sure

<mripard> mru: regarding the PMU interrupts, apparently, the PMU interrupt is the 81
<mru> mripard: meaning?
<mripard> mru: you asked me to ask allwinner about the PMU interrupts a few days ago, here is their answer.
<ssvb> sigh, PMU (performance monitoring unit) != PMU (power management unit)
<mru> there could also by a performance monitoring unit for peripherals
<mru> it's pretty clear that the a7 perf monitors are on irq 152/153
<ssvb> mru: apparently mripard got a reply telling him about SW_INT_IRQNO_PMU (which is already present in the header files)
<megal0maniac_afk> libv: Pardon my ignorance. We all have to start somewhere
<mru> ssvb: yes, and that's one of two mentions of "PMU" in the "manual"
<mripard> ssvb: power management unit is a completely different interrupt handled by a chained interrupt controller
<mru> the other being a memory region
<mru> so whatever it is, it isn't the in-cpu perf monitor
<libv> megal0maniac_afk: no, it's fine, just busy tightening up the page

<libv> right
<libv> megal0maniac_afk: i am thinking about creating a category for devices with schematics
<ssvb> mripard: thanks anyway
<ssvb> mripard: if mru had not already figured the irq numbers experimentally, we would just need to have one more round of Allwinner communication roundtrip :)
<megal0maniac_afk> libv: It makes fex files pretty easy
<mripard> ssvb: :)
<mripard> I wonder what that PMU interrupt is then
Gerwin_J has quit [Quit: Gerwin_J]

<libv> heh, no uboot support.
leviathanch2 has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
heffer has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<megal0maniac_afk> No uboot support?
<libv> no one added a separate u-boot target for the iteaduino plus a20
<libv> as the one iteaduino go just threw something over the hedge, then ran off, but then had to endure the big OSHW discussion
theskilledworker has joined #linux-sunxi
<megal0maniac_afk> The firmwares are all over the place. They use pcduino and cubieboard2 firmware images. Cross-compatibility between devices is nice, but it also makes amess
<megal0maniac_afk> *makes a mess
<libv> yeah
<libv> it will reduce the chance of us ever having a direct iteaduino_plus_a20 target
<libv> for uboot
<megal0maniac_afk> Well technically the cubieboard2 target should suffice for cubieboard2, ibox, pcduino and iteaduino_plus_a20

<mru> ac97 is one of those "specs" where almost everything is vendor specific
<mripard> wingrime2: I'm touching a different sound area, so I haven't look at AC97 yet
<mripard> I only looked at the audio "codec" so far
<wingrime2> mripard: you have some payment from AW for a31?

<megal0maniac_afk> Can that port function as a host?
<libv> megal0maniac_afk: it's OTG, so yes
<megal0maniac_afk> So it wasn't totally crazy :)
<libv> it is, as people have no cables handy for that.
<megal0maniac_afk> And the data pair comes out to the expansion header, so the micro/mini connector could go on there
<megal0maniac_afk> True
<libv> megal0maniac_afk: from what i gather, you were not supplied with a cable either
<stuhilkra> hi, i am follwoing this how-to http://olimex.wordpress.com/2013/11/05/building-the-ultimate-debian-sd-card-for-linux-with-kernel-3-4-for-a20-olinuxino-micro/ for isntalling gentoo on olimex a20. i setup the toolchain in gentoo and wanted to build uboot.
<stuhilkra> i did:
<megal0maniac_afk> libv: I have a prototype, backers might get more stuff
<libv> megal0maniac_afk: ok
<stuhilkra> but i can't find the olimex a20 in the boards.cfg
<libv> btw, your nick still has a wrong suffix, as you clearly are TOTK
<megal0maniac_afk> So this product hasn't even been released into the wild yet :D

<libv> we generally don't bother with such suffixes anymore, people respond on irc when they are around, and don't when they aren't :)
<megal0maniac> I had _afk for so long that I forgot. Usually it means I'm procrastinating, because taking the _afk away means I'm admitting that I'm doing something I shouldn't
<megal0maniac> Cool, I've found a cable
<stuhilkra> hi, i can't find a20-olinuxino_micro in the boards.cfg of u-boot - but the wiki says there should be (dated 2013) - is there a new name for it or is support broken?
<stuhilkra> as i see it uboot is still used so there should be a way
<libv> stuhilkra: it's just a20-olinuxino
<libv> stuhilkra: i have the device page as the next big todo on my wiki todo list
<stuhilkra> libv: hm, in boards.cfg i can't find it

<rz2k> first, it has good specs for the target of this IC - DVB TV. second, I did know about it for a long time because it is a long going project. Everything I can say right now - this is not the end, there will be other stuff, hopefully, more user oriented.
<rz2k> but even with ARM11 you can run openbox or some tiling window manager, terminal browser and all the usual terminal stuff.
<rz2k> you also have hdmi/i2s and h263/4 decoding available for multimedia needs.

<wingrime2> nove: strange
<wingrime2> nove: a20 - r/w
<nove> wingrime2: a20 was copy pasted from a10, a13 was a new thing
<wingrime2> nove: it could means a20 have it , but I failed to find way to activate ace
<rz2k> wingrime2: stop complaining about the price, this is a first low quantity party of ICs, the first public version. be thankful that they dont sell them with 2x-3x price to make production profitable.
<rz2k> expect price to drop when their ICs will be used in mass production devices
<rz2k> wingrime2: also platform has 3.10.y DTS enabled kernel with all devices working (plus sort of clean code), compare that to bullshit you see, for example, on RockChip. Module really spent a lot of money and time on getting stable and up to date kernel.
<wingrime2> rz2k: thats closed ring, price->profit->count->price->profit->count
<wingrime2> rz2k: they will do mainline?
netlynx has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<rz2k> yes
<rz2k> Promwad is doing the kernel alongside with guys from Module, code is okay to be mainlined
<wingrime2> rz2k: I hope they have someting around cortex-a9
<rz2k> and it is not a closed ring, they spent a lot of money already and consumer market of development boards is not the main one for them
<rz2k> this is only an "advertisement"
<rz2k> also google up price on cortex-a9 license
<rz2k> and Mali-400 for example
<rz2k> you'll get the idea why their first product is old ARM11
<wingrime2> rz2k: market is not so much kind as you and me
<wingrime2> rz2k: ARM11 actualy is OK, but if they have freq around 600-900 Mhz
<rz2k> no idea why they set 400mhz there
diego_r has quit [Quit: Konversation terminated!]
<wingrime2> rz2k: also HDMI looks are wrong here, if they presented board as DSP+ARM11 MCU, thats customers rewiev as even better , "wrong targeting"
<rz2k> no its not
<rz2k> this is DVB enabled TV processor
<rz2k> read what Module made before this chip
<rz2k> you place thing like this in your lowcost TV unit and run something like linuxfb/directfb output with overlays on top of the DVB signal
<wingrime2> rz2k: that market already taken by Broadcom
<rz2k> it is not taken locally
Gerwin_J has quit [Quit: Gerwin_J]

<ccaione> wens: are you familiar with the regulator drivers? I'm having a problem and no clue how to solve it
<wingrime2> rz2k: I hope they present something better in recent time
<rz2k> me too, but they are extremely slow guys since they are doing ARM first time.
<wingrime2> rz2k: aw are yonger than module as I think

<rz2k> Fujitsu provides complete ARM simulation systems for SoC implementors
<rz2k> I dont remember honestly
<wingrime2> rz2k: aw use this for a80
<rz2k> not surprising since they bought some Synopsis IP cores
<wingrime2> rz2k: they kenel have nice parts for debug on virtex fpgas

<libv> Turl: ah, soon, is a bit too hast
<libv> hasty
<libv> this weekend
<Turl> libv: last time I had to use a screwdriver
<Turl> and a lot of time
<libv> Turl: just cut the bit with the brushes off, and then flatten the tip until it is like a screwdriver
<libv> the flex in the brush helps you to not break anything
<libv> err, handle
<Turl> libv: and you think that'd work better than a card?
<libv> definitely
<Turl> the aluminium literally cut the tip of my card :p
<libv> you can make the tip quite fine
<libv> and you can always chop another piece off the toothbrush

<libv> rummage around your toolbox, there must be another antique one in there

<Turl> are those strings of any use anyway?
<libv> yes
<libv> people can google for those
<libv> and then hit us straight away
<Turl> it looked like something that would look the same on anything built from the aw sdk
<libv> they sometimes are
<libv> but for tablets they usually differ a lot
sehraf has quit [Quit: www.miranda-fusion.de ... be part of it...]
<libv> original mk802 and mk802+ and others often read SoftwinnerEvb
<libv> but tablets usually are reasonably unique
<libv> at least board maker specific
<Turl> crane, fiber, and a couple others
<Turl> they're all AW names
<libv> yes, but crane is usually embedded in the build id
<libv> but you do very often find unique ones
