00:48 <wingman2> so i watched the lca talk

00:49 <wingman2> and apparently you guys want volunteers

06:16 <whatnick> ping daveshah

11:55 <wingman2> hello?

12:02 <wingman2> mithro: you were looking for someone who can do docker?

12:07 <wingman2> i haven't done docker but i have done lxc, libvirt-lxc, network debian installs, debian installs by hand (debootstrap)

12:09 <wingman2> and i wrote some scripts for makeing containers with a shared squashfs and overlays

12:14 <wingman2> I guess I should say that it's not that I haven't done docker, it's just I looked at it in 2014 and decided I didn't need it.

12:21 <wingman2> But if you guys just need to be able to generate a debian image with gnome, a vnc server and the latest symbiflow builds from git it shouldn't be that hard

16:20 <robarago> Hi, sorry if I bother you. Do you think it would be technically feasible to make a DDR3 hat for an ECP3 FPGA. i.e. using the VERSA connectors?

16:20 <robarago> sorry, I meant ECP5

16:21 <daveshah> robarago: using pin headers for DDR3 is not likely to be successful; DDR3 is a pretty fussy interface

16:21 <daveshah> I did make an SDRAM hat though

16:54 <robarago> Thank you, Dave. Yes, I was afraid of that answer. So, DDR3 must be always on the same PCB or use a dedicated connector, isn't it? Thank you, yes, your alternative is the best (SDRAM)

16:55 <daveshah> robarago: Yes, that would certainly be advisible. FWIW the Versa has DDR3 onboard already

17:01 <robarago> Yes, I know. But I wanted to know if an affordable platform like the LFE5UM5G-85F-EVN could be upgraded in some features like fast memory or PCI-E as a module. The ECP5 Versa is half the size, sadly.

17:01 <robarago> I suppose I want it all, like everybody ;-)

17:03 <daveshah> You might also be able to get DDR1 working on the pin headers, at least at lower speeds

17:04 <daveshah> although you'd need to change VccIO to 2.5V for that

17:06 <robarago> OK, I see

17:06 <robarago> Thanks again

17:07 <robarago> Maybe I'd try your SDRAM hat if I finally go for the LFE5UM5G-85F-EVN. I like modularity the most

17:07 <daveshah> It's a very nice board barring the lack of memory...
