<wens> well i think that's because capture isn't finished
<hani> thanks I just figured that out I was too lazy to have a look at the code
<hani> wens: if I want to use one of ASOC namley the max9768 what would be the best approach do I need to implement an alsa machine driver
<hani> the MAX9768 is a class D speaker amp I has an I2C to adjust the volume. it does not have I2S
<hani> I was able to register to probe the I2C driver through the DTS but I'm not sure how to register it with alsa
<wens> sorry, i have no idea
<mripard_> with simple-card, I guess
<mripard_> but you shouldn't need an external codec with the audio codec.
<wens> it's just an amp, not a codec
<hani> simple card used DAI interface and require I2S
<hani> uses
<mripard_> hmmm, then yes, you should create your machine driver I guess
<wens> mripard_: do you know why .owner = THIS_MODULE is not needed?
<mripard_> module_platform_driver sets it iirc
<wens> i'm a bit skeptical
<hani> this prevents module to get unloaded when it is in operation. When initialized with THIS_MODULE current module holds the ownership on it
<wens> yeah, i see it in __platform_driver_register, which is expanded in module_platform_driver
<wens> so indeed we don't need to set it
notmart has joined #linux-sunxi
<hani> I guess you are right about that
<wens> still, most of the drivers set it :p

<deepe> does linux-sunxi(3.4) support SPI_3WIRE 16-bit communication?
<deepe> hmm, does not drivers/spi/spi_sunxi.c :(
<bhag> does sunxi supports "hibernation to disk" for cubieboard?
<oliv3r> it might, try it and see!
<oliv3r> though you may better ask in #cubieboard specifically
<oliv3r> since you probably are using their software
<wens> i thought suspend to disk only requires a swap partition :p

<hani> wens: what codec?
<hani> r u talking about the audio codec?
<wens> yes
<hani> is there any reason for choosing DAI over HW PCM implentation
<wens> you'll have to ask jonsmirl

<Gerwin_J> you can order it by WITS
<libv> price?
<ganbold_> iirc, benn said to give some samples to developers
ricardocrudo has joined #linux-sunxi
<libv> i was just wondering how much they are charging for it
<ganbold_> is that changed?
<Gerwin_J> 325 dollar
<libv> haha
<ganbold_> too much
<libv> who wants to buy allwinner based crap for that amount?
<libv> did they learn nothing from a31?
<Gerwin_J> a31 dev kit was 1600 dollar
focus_it has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
<libv> then they'll have better luck with a200
<libv> or whatever crazy number they come up next
xavia has joined #linux-sunxi
<libv> nobody is going to buy a80
<libv> cubie8 is going to be like 150 iirc
<libv> which is still too high for allwinner based hw
xavia has quit [Client Quit]
<Gerwin_J> pcduino will sell for 99 dollars
<Gerwin_J> but there are slow...
<libv> that's getting there
<libv> the odroid u3 has a chance, at iirc 165, as it is exynos based
<libv> but allwinner, that stuff better stay below 100 or nobody buys it all
<Gerwin_J> and Eva also told me there are pushing cubietech
<specing> eh, I browsed to pcduino thinking that finaly someone made an affordable x86 computer with a non-ATX power supply.
<libv> especially since we are constantly harking about the GPL violations
<Gerwin_J> to release cubieboard 8 next month
<specing> Gerwin_J: just buy a PC engines APU board
<specing> Gerwin_J: it comes with open bios and schematics and stuff and a dual core AMD
<Gerwin_J> okay but i have all ready order one a80 board
<Gerwin_J> so i will wait for that
<specing> cancel it
<specing> you only get headaches with ARM stuff anyway

<specing> libv: I assume the mali driver is still not finished, right?
<specing> Also fuck intel for putting PowerVR in its embedded atoms
<libv> intel has been doing that since the first atom
focus_it has joined #linux-sunxi
<libv> they tried getting away several times
<libv> but they always went back
<libv> seems like their own in house graphics are having a tough time matching powervr in performance/watt
<specing> yep
<wens> i suppose that can't use a mali?
<wens> or the others
<specing> I was finaly looking forward to buying a proper phone
<specing> no such luck.
<libv> intel, using an arm chip for graphics?
<libv> when they have their in house graphics silicon?
<libv> that'll be a cold day in hell
<wens> vivante then?
<specing> that reminds me that I still need to buy a mobile but everything is either ARM crap or Intel with PowerVR...
<libv> wens: vivante somewhat lost it, it seems
<wens> i see
<libv> freescale imx6 is the only one that remains
<libv> or the only one that is making any headlines
<libv> they seem to be out of the race with respect to mali and powervr
<libv> freescale should go buy them out when their customer base and revenue reaches a new low
<mripard_> specing: there's a few iirc
<mripard_> Intel's baytrail are using intel's GPU

<libv> i also have a 2010 eeepc which has an intel gpued atom

<mripard_> specing: I don't think there's phone with it, but some tablets running android definitely
<mripard_> But I'm not really an expert in that area :)
<libv> the last one with proper overlays, before the display engine designers gave in to the "we can do it all on the 3d engine" stupidity
<libv> which then posed a few problems when android started to cleverly use those in hwcomposer ;)

<oliv3r> libv: they use a lot of code, including the stock jpeg library for linux in their cedarX lib, and even though libjpeg is very lenient, they do require a README to be passed long I belive, but even that they fail on. Further more code is being violated from the ffmpeg project. There may be others, but a lot of it is reference implementations from the interwebs. It should be on the sunxi history, I don't know what happened to the content though

<rds> what is the strategy of AW with A80 ( very expensive ), and even before it hits the streets, they already talking about a 64 bit processor ?
<rds> do they want to kill sells of the A80 ?
_massi has quit [Quit: Leaving]
nove has joined #linux-sunxi
<rds> it is amazing, but I have to agree with LIBV. Any AW hardware above $100 is not going to fly. They better drop to something more inline with the market, or $49.
<rm> I bet they won't stop making the A20
<rm> at least not yet
<rm> and A20 is more than enough for many/most uses
<rds> yes, the A20 is a good SOC, if AW was a bit smarter, and would release *ALL* documentation for it
<rds> as well as helping financially some developers of this community.

<nove> libv, that libisp does not have anything to do with video encoding and decoding, in cedar hardware there is a subengine called isp, but this is unrelated
<nove> funny, and in https://github.com/cubie8/ there is not kernel tree
<libv> nove: ok, please fix :)
<libv> nove: heh, cubie sold its soul to allwinner, and allwinner sold it to linaro?
<libv> and we never existed?
<nove> wanted to say that in a80 there will be a new blob, but they removed the kernel tree
<libv> hah
<libv> not sure whether that means that this will get fixed, wait and see.
<nove> libv: also i don't like that we are making statements about the infringement of cedarx libraries without having clear proof
<nove> libv: until we have clear and undoubt proof, don't you thing is better to not referrer it?
<libv> i thought we had
<libv> oliv3r: ^
<nove> libv: is very likely to be true, but at the contrary of the blobs in kernel, here we must have more than words to show
<libv> is gplv2
<libv> ff_h263_intra_MCBPC_code is in some version of libvecore.so i have lying around

<libv> hramrach: ? you unplugged a microsoft keyboard?
<libv> why is this special?
<hramrach> kinda pun on those people saying that their box is Microsoft-free
<hramrach> only Microsoft thing I have is probably this keyboard
<libv> hramrach: is being against microsoft still something people actively spend their time on?
<Wizzup> It's a nice bonus
<hramrach> dunno
<libv> 5 years ago, i could see why, but now we are in the world of android
<libv> microsoft is seriously struggling
<libv> i can understand being against google more these days
<hramrach> it had too small esc key and was needlessly large so ther it goes
<Wizzup> why not both? :)
<hramrach> MS might be struggling but they still might manage to do a lot of damage with that Office 365
<libv> ibm used to be really hated
<hramrach> they supplied the machines Wehrmacht used for certain sorting purposes I heard ;-)
<libv> that was more than 70 years ago
<hramrach> people kinda did not fully get over that thing yet
<libv> nono, people disliked ibm as little as 25 years ago
<hramrach> any huge company deserves being disliked
<libv> but only some are relevant for this channel.
<libv> and i think we're way past with microsoft
<hramrach> ibm is not exactly relevant
<libv> if anything, we should dislike google, arm, allwinner, linaro, in that order
<Wizzup> It isn't?
<Wizzup> libv: do you prefer intel to arm?
<hramrach> hmm, microsoft is still trying to enter the tablet market
<libv> Wizzup: as an open source graphics driver developer?
<Wizzup> and in general, I guess ;-)
<libv> Wizzup: or as an open source graphics developer, who was naysaid, was consistently refused a job at intel for being proven right nonetheless, and who pioneered a lot of things most intel developers work on today?
<hramrach> they work on it at least
<hramrach> when it comes to graphics drivers Intel is at least trying
<libv> i cannot dislike intel as a whole, i cannot dislike OsTC, as they are developing the free-est driver, and they are continuing the documentation tradition we started with RadeonHD, but which ATI successfully shot down
<libv> but i can dislike a few people at intel :p
<libv> for being consistently wrong, and for not being able to admit it, even though they have been actively proving it.
<libv> plus, intel is struggling
<libv> they have a very valid competitor in arm
<libv> and they are having difficulties staving it off
<hramrach> Intel even came up with a few innovations i~n the Xorg/Linux stack
akaizen has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<libv> hramrach: such as?
<oliv3r> let me backread
<hramrach> new acceleration schemes
<libv> hramrach: every week a new one.
<libv> hramrach: todays flavour, glamor
<libv> none of them able to beat XAA
<hramrach> and unlike ATI they make use of the fact that their graphics uses the same RAM as the system
<libv> well, until eric anholt removed one of the biggest shortcuts XAA made
<libv> officially to clean up the interface, but it suddenly made EXA/UXA competitive
<libv> by making XAA slower
<oliv3r> libv: we had proof o tje wiki
<libv> hramrach: which company was the first to do that?
<oliv3r> would need tp dig thrpugh thehistory
<libv> hramrach: let me give you a hint, it was the same company that printed the name of a small blue pill that makes things big, on its first generation of chipsets
<libv> this a few months after the small blue pill hit the market
<libv> i am still looking for one of those boards, for my vast collection of hardware from that company
<hramrach> dunno what you refer to
<libv> viagra
<Wizzup> (via)
<hramrach> if you want to dig in the past
<libv> ah, it seems via and intel did the same thing at the same time
<libv> anyway, not an innovation of the intel ostc graphics team.
<hramrach> ZX spectrum had a part of memory that was read by a dedicated unit and turned into TV signal. And you could write anything there and it was instantly displayed .. the next time the unit read that scanline
<libv> anyway, there isn't much reason to hate intel these days
afaerber has quit [Quit: Verlassend]
<Wizzup> except for eating my batteries
<Wizzup> ;-)
<libv> i have my own reasons, but that started just short of a decade ago
<libv> and involves some current intel employees
* Wizzup read the blog post
<libv> :)
<Turl> hramrach: MS hardware is good :p
<libv> everyone should actually hate those guys, as they delayed proper modesetting for 7-8 years, but you cannot hold this massive company responsible for that
<libv> dislike google for being a molloch that is trying to control and learn about everything in our lives
<libv> dislike it for how horrible android is, and how it gave us what we wanted (linux everywhere) without getting what we really wanted (useful linux everywhere)
<libv> dislike arm for being stupid about the mali
<oliv3r> ms doest make hw, they buy it and put a sticker o it
<Wizzup> like rob and others for making awesome drivers :-)
<linkmauve1> libv, how separate is ARM MPD from ARM?
<oliv3r> i try to vote with my wallet tbough :p
<libv> dislike allwinner for being a stupid chinese company that still fails to understand open source, licenses and what markets to play in
<Turl> oliv3r: they know where to buy it then :p
<libv> dislike linaro for giving companies like allwinner an excuse
<libv> linkmauve1: in my view, not very much
<libv> linkmauve1: but it sounds very plausible that the rest of arm does not like coughing up for MPD projects
<linkmauve1> Ok.
<libv> but then, departments always fight eachother in every company
<oliv3r> Turl: some one at packt wted to merge chapters 2 and 3
<libv> linkmauve1: if the rest of ARM wants an open source mali driver, MPD would've had to give in
<oliv3r> also 4 a d 7

<Turl> oliv3r: more work for you? :p
<hramrach> problem with intel is if they succeed in making good tablet grade CPU the wintel lockin can continue
<Turl> oliv3r: the book is going out by the time A80 is obsolete :p
<hramrach> because right now many government agencies get away with making mandatory software Windows only. Because every serious computer user has a PC and that always runs windows, right?
<Turl> hramrach: s/serious/"serious"/
<Turl> OT: what's a "faculty advisor"?
<libv> hramrach: the market is currently owned by arm chips, by a lot of vendors who are used to mix/match bits from ip vendors like arm
<hramrach> oh, and they are always administrators able to install run any crap they can come with like unsigned ActiveX components
<libv> hramrach: i think intel is working with rockchip now on an intel based SoC
<libv> even if intel wins some designs
<libv> it is only an SoC vendor itself now, and is only just trying to become an ip as well
<libv> plus, ms lockin?
<libv> what ms lockin?
<libv> that's only on the desktop
<libv> on tablets its all android
<hramrach> for now
<Turl> libv: if surface sticks..
<Turl> it may not be so for much on corporate
<libv> ms is actually quite well known for only really working on snapdragon in mobile
<hramrach> or some Intel based tablets that can run Win7 apps 'seamlessly'
<libv> so there is no lockin
<Turl> libv: there's x86 surfaces
<libv> hramrach: who still has win7 apps?
<Turl> "pro" I think
<libv> hramrach: pc users
<libv> not tablet users
<libv> why is ms doing office 365 dythink?
<libv> there is no intel ms lockin anymore
<libv> that's the pc world.
<libv> we have moved on.
<libv> linux rules
<hramrach> we might have
<libv> just not in a way that is useful for anyone else but the unknowing android user
<hramrach> but many of the sheeple haven't
<libv> and there's tons of gpl violations out there
<Turl> libv: let's hope steamOS changes that :p
<libv> Turl: how?
<libv> Turl: steamos is trying to compete with ps4 and xbox1
<hramrach> and they might actually embrace a platform that allows them to continue to live in the safe locked-in world they know
<libv> not with the normal pc
<libv> it's a game platform
<Turl> libv: decent gfx drivers from manufs
<libv> it won't
<libv> nvidia and ati use their proprietary drivers for any serious user
<libv> nvidia because its the only thing it does (for this area), and it does it well
<Turl> last I heard ati's prop stuff was crap compared to the win one
<libv> ati because it neutered our open source initiative, and now have two broken drivers
<libv> valve is working with the intel open source guys though
<libv> so there is a future there
<Turl> I reap those benefits :)
<libv> but to my knowledge they are not even talkign to the ati figleaf driver guys
<Turl> valve games run well on intel hw
<libv> so steamos does nothing but continue the x86 status quo
<Turl> well, except these last months, there's something hosed on xf86-video-intel causing gpu hangs

<libv> that's not useful information

<paulk-collins> oliv3r, hey, I'm back to giving my sunxi tablets some love,playing around with fedora so far
<paulk-collins> oliv3r, with hope, I may finally start the Replicant port :) (deadline is next fosdem, right?)
<oliv3r> paulk-collins: haha yes
<oliv3r> paulk-collins: replicant.us seems to have been very quiet
<paulk-collins> well, we released new images a few weeks ago
ikeeki has joined #linux-sunxi
<paulk-collins> oliv3r, regarding vdpau, do you know of anything that I could use on Fedora to give it a try?
<paulk-collins> seems like fedora is not around
<paulk-collins> s/fedora/mplayer/
<oliv3r> did you try: http://linux-sunxi.org/Cedrus
<paulk-collins> well that's what I'm trying to do
libcg has joined #linux-sunxi
<paulk-collins> but it needs a media player, right?
Black_Horseman has joined #linux-sunxi
<oliv3r> there's mplayer, mpv and mplayer2
<oliv3r> i think fedora has 1 of those
<oliv3r> unfortunatly yeah
<oliv3r> anything that supports libvdpau
Skaag has joined #linux-sunxi
<paulk-collins> there is parole on xfce, but I have no idea what it uses
<paulk-collins> probably gstreamer
<ikeeki> oliv3r, paulk-collins: not anything that supports vdpau
<paulk-collins> ikeeki, any chance it would work with gstreamer?
<oliv3r> ikeeki: how not so
<ikeeki> for example, I've observed that last version of mpv has bugs in approximately the down third of the screen
<ikeeki> well, last 2 or three versions
<oliv3r> ikeeki: so there's a bug in mpv, not libvdpau that's not being supported :)
<ikeeki> and mplayer2 (not mplayer) is worst that mpv in the sense that it getting more and more difficult to to make vdpau work with it + smplayer frontend
<ikeeki> of course, but a bug
<ikeeki> I mean
<ikeeki> I'm not saying that vdpau for allwinner does not rock
<linkmauve1> ikeeki, are those bugs reported to mpv and mplayer2?
<ikeeki> but it is useless if you do not choose a correct version of mpv/mplayer
<ikeeki> using mpv your are less likely to have problems using for example, smtube
<ikeeki> yes, at least for mpv
<ikeeki> on the other hand, you'll have to meet a bunch of depencies like libavcodec (54 I think) and other that has to be with jessie repos
<ikeeki> that have to be, sorry for the english
<ikeeki> so be ready to fight them
<ikeeki> In fact, when "building" my distro aruntu, I try to use as less as possible those repos, but eventually, youll may need some of those libs
<ikeeki> so, some hints:
<ikeeki> A mpv better than mplayer
<ikeeki> B mplayer does not work, it is the newer mplayer2
<nove> paulk-collins: that vdpau is a "fake" one, in the sense that it isn't bond to a gpu, so this means that some of the vdpau api aren't implemented
<paulk-collins> nove, okay, I see
<ikeeki> C you can use mpv cli, but it could give you probs, as it depends on the external subtitles activation
<ikeeki> D smtube works fine with mpv, in fact it is stable
<ikeeki> E you can use a 1080p video output desktop, and mkv playing, but it has to be a light desktop, composite will screw everything up
<nove> paulk-collins: this was only created to be used as a test bed for the reverse engineering work, and never intended to be used by end users
<ikeeki> nove: it is a shame, cause, it is very near of a great performance
<paulk-collins> yeah I know, still I'd like to give it a try :)
<ikeeki> if you do not want to have too much prob, I'd recommend you my distro (no spam of my work , it is just that I have inverted many hours on that, and if you can save those hours, I'd be happy)
<paulk-collins> thanks, maybe I'll look into it
<paulk-collins> it's just for a test though
<paulk-collins> eventually I'm just going to port Android to it
<ikeeki> In fact mime types are already set, so if it just a test it'll be just a double click operation (after having installed the image onto a sdcard, of course)
<ikeeki> good night guys
<oliv3r> nn ikeeki
<ikeeki> yes

<paulk-collins> oliv3r, alright
<paulk-collins> maybe I'll just build mplayer
<ikeeki> night kivutar, sorry for the lack of feedback, lately I've had a good bunch of probs
<kivutar> ikeeki, no problem!
<ikeeki> No, in fact it is a prob for me, Im raring to test more, but I usually bit more than I can chew, Iĺl do it eventually
<ikeeki> bye

<oliv3r> paulk-collins: what problems are you getting?
<libv> ssvb: edid will not be done.
<ssvb> libv: is there some fundamental problem, or just not enough time for it?
<libv> at first glance, it is still doing edid from before a whiny belgian came along

<libv> Turl: it only happens in like half the things i do or so
<Turl> libv: that's easy to fix, keep a public repo with the kms stuff
<libv> no, because then my halfarsed code will have something similar happen
