and supposedly the "new hot chip" among the chinese handheld market is going to be the V3s, but there's nothing you can buy as of yet
<ullbeking>
woweee!!!
<ullbeking>
this is a lot more than i was expecting :-0
<ullbeking>
thank you for the update quadjfet !
<quadjfet>
well, those are the things I am interested in (minus the tv box), and why I joined
<quadjfet>
not really an "official" update though
<quadjfet>
"lychee pi" makes cheap little SBCs for both the F1c100s and the V3s that are kind of neat
<quadjfet>
but I haven't done anything with mine other than solder pins to them yet, so I can't really say much about them
<ullbeking>
quadjfet: well, tbh, even getting the soldering iron out is a huge step, but i assume you've done it before?
<quadjfet>
boards starting to come with usable display FFC connectors is very nice for my interests in homemade game devices, so that's neat
<ullbeking>
nice
<quadjfet>
I think libv is working on some LCD stuff at the moment, he's posted here about it
<ullbeking>
how about sata connectors?
<ullbeking>
instead of usb-to-sata?
<quadjfet>
ah, I don't know. I'm only really focusing on sound and video stuff for handhelds at the moment. Kind of faded away from the stationary SBC scene and went back to using "real" computers

<libv>
quadjfet: that's just wiring through the bpi lcd to the lime2 using a custom board
<libv>
so it did involve soldering, as this was an intermediate board, just so we could start work on the software side of things, not even the prototype yet
<quadjfet>
$80 USD, playable electric with a big cavity inside to play with
<quadjfet>
tried to put in the guts of a different little battery powered amp to improve the sound, but had problems with feedback
<quadjfet>
intonation kinda sux, but for $80 I'm not too bothered. It's a lap guitar, not for recording
<quadjfet>
probably enough off topic for now. see ya!
* ullbeking
is looking at the headphone project
<ullbeking>
oh that would be amazing for my daughter
<ullbeking>
she loves playing guitar
<quadjfet>
I would recommend that one ("Raptor E300") only if she is a punk rock power chord type of rocker. Fretted notes are about 20-30 cents sharper than open strings, so barre chords sound great while open chords don't sound good.
<quadjfet>
the "Yamaha Guitalele" is an acoustic guitar at similar price point and scale length that is a much nicer guitar, but it's acoustic only
Da_Coynul has joined #linux-sunxi
<quadjfet>
If I get the electronics/sound to a point I'm really happy with, I might take the Raptor to a guitar tech and see if the intonation can be improved. I've tried to fix intonation in the past and have invariably made it worse.
<ullbeking>
quadjfet: her music tastes surprise me and blow me away
<quadjfet>
Vox used to make an "Apache" series of guitars and basses that were quality instruments with a similar built-in amp and speaker setup
<quadjfet>
I got the bass version a while ago and like it. I tried to pick up the guitar version recently but couldn't find it anywhere, I think it's no longer produced
<quadjfet>
hence the cheap little $80 thing that I don't feel protective of, so I'm fine drilling holes and attacking it with a soldering iron

ullbeking: adding a headphone jack to a device that already has a built-in speaker is pretty easy
<quadjfet>
it means they already have a speaker-level output.
<quadjfet>
I wired the speaker output to a panel-mount On-On DPDT switch, then to the 3.5mm stereo jack.
<quadjfet>
those were the parts I had on hand. If you have a panel-mount 5-terminal jack you can do it with just one part.

<quadjfet>
and then you can use a cheap (male 3.5mm plug) -> (inline volume pot) -> (female 3.5mm jack) cable for an additional volume control with headphones
<quadjfet>
it's somewhat wasteful of power to do it this way, but not a big deal at typical headphone power levels
<quadjfet>
the correct way to do it is to put the volume potentiometer before the final power amp section

Alexis3D: I'm not sure if you saw my message yesterday, but your patch which disables DDR for H6 eMMC helps
<Alexis3D>
I didn't. I took a day off and the IRC logs didn't show anything to me
<Alexis3D>
I'm glad it helped :D
<jernej>
However, I'll do some more tests with various properties found in Android DT
<jernej>
it may be just misconfiguration
<Alexis3D>
Please do, thanks
<Alexis3D>
It was just a hacky fix after all
<Alexis3D>
I can test them too
<jernej>
I just don't want to disable DDR, because if fix is found by adding additional properties, you have a problem how to make driver work for older DTs
Mangy_Dog has joined #linux-sunxi
gsz has quit [Quit: Konversation terminated!]
<Alexis3D>
I understand, yeah
<Alexis3D>
I guess hardcoding that additional properties in the driver is messy
<Alexis3D>
It allows to set wakeup alarms on any RTC handled by the sun6i driver
<Alexis3D>
It works on my board, but I don't know about others
<Alexis3D>
If anyone has some spare time, it'd be great to know if it works on other boards too
<montjoie>
Alexis3D: how to test your patch ?
oknos has quit [Quit: Using Circe, the loveliest of all IRC clients]
<montjoie>
if you have a suite of command to do, I can integrate them in my kernelci test suite
Da_Coynul has joined #linux-sunxi
<Alexis3D>
montjoie: first you apply it to the kernel, then you compile it with the CONFIG_PM_TEST_SUSPEND option, and boot the kernel with test_suspend=freeze. The board should freeze for a few seconds and then resume booting normally
<Alexis3D>
If that doesn't work because for some reason the freeze suspend is broken on the board, then you should get one interrupt after 5 seconds by doing: echo +5 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm.
afaerber has joined #linux-sunxi
<Alexis3D>
To check if you got an interrupt after 5 seconds, you can do $ grep rtc /proc/interrupts
afaerber has quit [Client Quit]
<Alexis3D>
And the second field should show that one interrupt was made by the RTC

In my board test_suspend
<Alexis3D>
=mem doesnt't work
<Alexis3D>
But echoing to /sys/power/state works
<Alexis3D>
So maybe you want to test it by initiating suspend from /sys/power/state rather than test_suspend
