ssvb negative on the bootargs. it sets the resolution during or near edid probing. tracing it through sunxi_display.c from the error message

hey ssvb... simply changing the resolution lines (from 1024 768 to 800 600) in the appropriate line of videomodes.c did it. no clocks change or other changes. just intercepting that default fallback behaviour and replacing those two variables gives me what I was looking for.

is possible to turn off a wifi dongle using command line instruction? i have a battery-wowered cubieboard and turn of a wireless port when not in use will help to save energy
naobsd has joined #linux-sunxi
<adj_>
premoboss, look at the /sys filesystem
<adj_>
something like /sys/bus/usb/devices/.../power/level
<adj_>
or at least someting inside /sys/bus/usb/devices/.../power/
<adj_>
you should be able to turn off a device by writing to it with 'echo'
<adj_>
as root
<premoboss>
ok
<adj_>
it says the device to power off
<adj_>
it doesn't cut energy at pin 1 on the usb port
<NiteHawk>
normally bringing down the interface ("ifconfig wlan0 down") should at least switch off the wifi part, too
<adj_>
i don't know how much a wifi dongle consumes not transmitting, but I suppose that quite a lot
<premoboss>
i user powertop to monitor thatosu fo wlan, both "ifdown wlan1" and "ifconfig wlan1 down" dont have appaently ecffect becasue powertop still report presente of wlan1
<premoboss>
i go to explore /sys/usb... as suggested
<NiteHawk>
that's probably preferable, agreed :)
<Igorpec4>
iwconfig wlan0 txpower 0
<premoboss>
txpower 0? i try. in /sys/../power directiry there are a lot of file, i am arguing what of that is THE file to work on.
<Igorpec4>
yes, try. it should work
<Igorpec4>
it might not work on all adapter
<premoboss>
iwconfig wlan0 txpower 0 worl a while, then reply 'txpower unknown host'
<Igorpec4>
are you using that adapter?
<premoboss>
note: wlan0 act as Access Pooint and i have a pc conncted to it. the pc still conncted so the command don't tirned off the wlan0
<Igorpec4>
ahaa
<premoboss>
yes, as AP

so you want to power it down without disabling it?
<premoboss>
i want to unpower it, no matter if it "kill" all service running on it.
<premoboss>
i can disabling it first, no problem
<premoboss>
is ok 'ifdown wlan0'? or 'iwconfing wlan0 down'?
<Igorpec4>
first
<premoboss>
ok i do
<Igorpec4>
but you can do it also with rfkill
<premoboss>
i did ifdown wlan0, ifconfig wlan0 txpower 0, bit it istil reply unknown host
<premoboss>
oh, sorry i must do iwconfig wlan0 txpower 0
<premoboss>
mmm powertop still report presence of wlan0
