not sure if i'm misremembering, but I feel like I've used devices before that would auto detect various baud serial rates, would this be possible to have the fpga autodetect?
<peepsalot>
anyways, i've ordered a couple ch340g devices to replace my cp2102, just would be a neat feature if possible
<felix_>
hm, for me the silabs usb uarts were the most reliable ones apart from the more expensive ftdi ones. i've had some bad clones of the silabs ones though
<peepsalot>
felix_: the main issue was that it doesn't do 1Mbps
<peepsalot>
ch340g can do up to 2Mbps, allegedly
<peepsalot>
and i won't buy ftdi on principle
<felix_>
ah, ok

hmm daveshah any idea why i cant build nextpnr on a pi running rasbian? i always get "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'database'"
<Claude>
i gave the path to libtrellis to cmake
<daveshah>
You need to install trellis and set TRELLIS_INSTALL_PREFIX to the prefix it is installed too (usually /usr/local or /usr)
<daveshah>
But the current database import will probably OOM on a Pi
<Claude>
ok will try again
<Claude>
its a 4GB ram pi
<daveshah>
That might just manage
<daveshah>
but better to use the bba files from a PC build
<CarlFK>
OOM = process killer?
<daveshah>
Yes
<daveshah>
you can tell cmake to use those with PREGENERATED_BBA_PATH
<Claude>
daveshah: argh! thanks! just gave /usr as trellis install prefix and it worked
<Claude>
damn :)
<Claude>
ok i let it run for a while, thanks for the hint with the OOM and bba files.
