(don't ask me about fabricatorz, I don't know where they got that from)
<lekernel>
the problem at fosdem is the hardware knowledge level seems to be pretty low
<lekernel>
for one speaker, "programming interrupts is very difficult"
<wolfspraul>
do you know whether/how many m1 bearstech sold?
<lekernel>
not yet
<lekernel>
i'll ask
<lekernel>
from past experiences at fosdem, it seems they don't sell much stuff
<wolfspraul>
lekernel: "Fabricatorz libre design team member Sebastian Bourdeauducq"
<wolfspraul>
:-)
<wolfspraul>
I think it's fun, it doesn't matter
<wolfspraul>
you will get used to inaccurate reporting - this one is probably from Jon talking to a journalist and presenting you like that, or a misunderstanding
<wolfspraul>
it doesn't matter. most important is that they did report, and linked to milkymist.org
<lekernel>
yeah, I guess so
<wolfspraul>
not sure how many readers they have though
<wolfspraul>
that's the most important question
<lekernel>
well at /tmp/lab we had our share of inaccurate reporting too :)
<wolfspraul>
oh sure, it's a total mess
<lekernel>
sometimes with some damage... indeed this one doesn't really matter
<wolfspraul>
once you've been both behind and in front of a story a few times you stop reading the newspaper entirely
<lekernel>
one of the articles nearly got us evicted
<wolfspraul>
in most cases it's not on purpose, it's just sloppiness/time pressure/badly communicated message/ambiguous wording/etc.
<wolfspraul>
most people (including us) just talk talk talk. and we don't pause and double-check how our words are understood.
<wolfspraul>
if we do that, sometimes it's surprising to find out how different people understand the very same words we are using every day.
<kristianpaul>
damn slow!! (flterm loading a 2.9Mb binary)
<lekernel>
yeah, use netboot
<lekernel>
that's what it's for
<kristianpaul>
k
<kristianpaul>
Yah !!!!
<kristianpaul>
LUA BOOOTS !!
<kristianpaul>
:D
<kristianpaul>
It was easy as lekernel pointed ;-)
<kristianpaul>
lekernel: not so big to load after objcopy :p
<kristianpaul>
green
<Fallenou>
congratulation kristianpaul :)
<Fallenou>
well done !
<kristianpaul>
argg
<kristianpaul>
why it works well on qemu but not in the board..
<kristianpaul>
lekernel: I'll fork flicernoise, basically remove mtk and png stuff, and focus on comand line, is okay if i call it "flicerknoise minimal" or just invent other name not related with it to not create confution with the upstream vesion.
<kristianpaul>
Fallenou: thanks :-), I'm learning... step by step, next target rtems :-) !
<Fallenou>
good luck :)
<Fallenou>
if you have questions do not hesitate maybe i've already had one of the troubles you may have
<kristianpaul>
mwalle: what's up with micromonitor?
<mwalle>
kristianpaul: should be working
<kristianpaul>
mwalle: where is the code?
<mwalle>
there was an issue with flash access and DMA (esp. ethernet) with the real board, but that shoudl be gone with the crossbar switch
<mwalle>
kristianpaul: git.serverraum.org
<kristianpaul>
i'll checkout, thanks !
<kristianpaul>
damn i need my own git sever..
<kristianpaul>
seRver
<mwalle>
why arent you using github?
<kristianpaul>
I do use github
<kristianpaul>
But i need a backup ;-)
<kristianpaul>
And something running on the server, i must make  worth the investement :-)
<mwalle>
lol :)
<mwalle>
i have to go, gn8
<kristianpaul>
bye
<Fallenou>
kristianpaul: your local copy of the github repo is like a backup :)
<kristianpaul>
Fallenou: yes, but is on my desktoo computer, i dont like single point of failure, so i want it on the server too
<kristianpaul>
I may install indefero, i like the project, lets see
<Fallenou>
you have your desktop and github
<Fallenou>
but you can make a third one
<kristianpaul>
i own a server, yes the third one !
<Fallenou>
;)
<lekernel>
kristianpaul: the demo firmware is like flickernoise in command line, though it doesn't have the latest renderer features
<kristianpaul>
lekernel: but isnt based on rtems? may i right?
<lekernel>
no, it's not using an OS at all
<kristianpaul>
ok
<kristianpaul>
i want work with rtems
<kristianpaul>
yaffs2 support i something i value
<kristianpaul>
not the sd and ethernet bugs, but that is a TODO :-)
<kristianpaul>
to be sincere i dint manage to fully compile flicknoise from scratch, i always get mess when compiling/installinh mtk depences and other libs so i just need yaffs and may be libFPVM
<kristianpaul>
no more :-)
<lekernel>
if all you're say is "i get a mess" we can't really help you
<lekernel>
they are many dependences, but I don't think they're messy
<kristianpaul>
sure i can ask for help with detailed data, let see if need it, for now i'll skip what i dont need and comment some include and tasks i dont need
<lekernel>
"WebM RTL source code (VHDL or Verilog) is available at no charge." and developed by Google, not some random opencores guy, so there's a chance this would get video decoding to work on mm
<lekernel>
kristianpaul: it'll be faster to fix the dependency problems
<kristianpaul>
lekernel: well, right, wait for my building log then ;-)
<lekernel>
send that to the list, along with specific questions that would help you understand why it didn't work
<kristianpaul>
Anyway is good to have VGA output from time to time :-)
<kristianpaul>
I like pdf thing too
<kristianpaul>
no-cost license but.... non-comercial as well?
<tuxbrain>
wow lekernel implement this on the MM soc can be awesome if license thing is not tainted :)
<lekernel>
kristianpaul: I know nothing more than what is on the website
