06:10 <kristianpaul> hmm, pixel qi, i knew i had heard qi with other project

11:46 <zumbi> hey! sebastian talk at fosdem is going quite great :)

11:47 <zumbi> is he on irc?

11:52 <Fallenou> he left a few hours ago

11:52 <Fallenou> his nickname is lekernel

11:52 <Fallenou> the talk is at 5 PM for Milkymist btw

12:45 <kristianpaul> hola Arhuaco :-)

12:46 <Arhuaco> Hello kristianpaul. How's it going?

12:46 <kristianpaul> Arhuaco: good, how is your mm1?

12:47 <kristianpaul> I saw from your blog you got the serial-jtag pod

12:47 <Arhuaco> kristianpaul: Yes. I need to test it soon. Can I do it without a VGA monitor? I would like to boot RTEMS.

12:47 <kristianpaul> Arhuaco: sure

12:48 <kristianpaul> Arhuaco: flickernoise use rtems as base os, so you already are running it

12:49 <Arhuaco> kristianpaul: Thanks. I'd like to know how to build it and flash it.

12:49 <kristianpaul> The shell from both bios and flickernoise is accesible by the serial console

12:49 <kristianpaul> flash sure, http://milkymist.org/wiki/index.php?title=Flashing_the_Milkymist_One

12:50 <kristianpaul> hmm

12:51 <kristianpaul> You need to... wolfgang told you about the trim in the jtag-serial port connector on the M1?

12:52 <Arhuaco> kristianpaul: No... what's that?

12:52 <kristianpaul> I dont know if this is mandatory, but.. do you already tested the jtag-serial pod?

12:53 <kristianpaul> Let me find the right link

12:54 <kristianpaul> http://en.qi-hardware.com/wiki/JTAG/Serial_Cable_run_1_for_Milkymist_One <-- [edit] To be fixed/improved

12:54 <kristianpaul> i guess is not mandatory it should work as it is

13:03 <Arhuaco> kristianpaul: Thanks. I'll save the link. I don't have it at hand at the moment.

13:06 <kristianpaul> Arhuaco: I cant resist ask you, what are your plans with the M1, Milkymist, rtems?

13:09 <Arhuaco> kristianpaul: That's not a hard question to answer :-) Like to years ago I dreamed with using a FPGA and I'm happy I can have one. I would like to learn how to use JTAG and learn more about the mico32.

13:09 <Arhuaco> kristianpaul: "like to" was a mistake, I mean "many". So,

13:10 <kristianpaul> nice :-)

13:10 <Arhuaco> kristianpaul: So, the minimum think I want to accomplish is boot the board, build programs in Rtems (I know the API somehow), and learn JTAG. And use programs people do.

13:12 <Arhuaco> kristianpaul: (Grr, it's "thing". Lack of sleep?). My real goal is to study this ( http://www1.idc.ac.il/tecs/software.html ) and play with the FPGA but I'm not sure I'll do that. I am busy with many things this year and dealing with many changes.

15:23 <mwalle> lekernel: hi how was the talk?

15:32 <kristianpaul> lekernel: same  question :')

15:34 <mwalle> the memcard emulation seems to work, but bios doesnt find my boot.bin (formatted with mkdosfs -F16)

15:35 <mwalle> my (rather old) flickernoise binary list boot.bin and a patch, which can be successfully loaded

17:32 <lekernel> mwalle: fine, got about ~80 persons i'd say

17:42 <mwalle> cool :)

17:42 <lekernel> http://mastersofmedia.hum.uva.nl/2011/02/05/fosdem-2011-milkymist-open-vj-platform/ ... overall it's a good article, though I quite don't understand what Fabricatorz exactly is, let alone be a member of it :p

17:43 <mwalle> lol

17:45 <kristianpaul> free menbership after the talk ;-)
