hramrach: i looked at the exynos5. i know someone who can do the board. the issue will be ramping the clock speed down to keep within the thermal limit (about 3.5 watts)
<libv>
which then makes the exynos5 pointless

"I don't always transfer files off my embedded system from the shell, but when I do I use busybox telnet and uuencode." Turns out that wifi adapter is on a USB bus which wasn't initialized because my script.bin has a base address which skips the embedded bus controller.
<doneill>
er. script.bin specifies a base address which skips one of the usb controllers.

Bit off topic, anything similiar to the Gizmoboard but cheaper/smaller footprint?

Hi guys, yesterday I've used heavily my all winner tablet (a90w) or the first time in one year… I've modified the wireless so the caption is slightly better so I was able while travelling to listen music and browse the net...
<fra79Wii>
the problem is that the apollo music player is not usoing
<fra79Wii>
using the CedarA to encoding mp3.. is it right?
<fra79Wii>
so the browsing was slightly laggy when listening mp3.. I'm using a recent cm10 build

I believe CM itself has to make use of Cedar in its media interface layer.

lkcl: the exynos is useful for being more powerful. If you have to clock it down to fit it into an eoma it clearly shows the limit of eoma design
<hramrach>
and as L84Supper said it might not need that much clocking down. Perhaps the thermal design could be tested with a more powerful CPU like one of the AMD chips or with a stub card that just generates heat
<L84Supper>
it wouldn't have to be underclocked at all, the thermal specs are just random values picked out of a ...
<hramrach>
I wonder what the whole solution is supposed to look like. Imagine the card stuck into a device that is basically thermally non-conductive
<L84Supper>
that will be a problem for any device
<hramrach>
maybe it should be specified that the device that accepts the cards should be somewhat thermally conductive or specify in documentation how powerful cards it can cool under what conditions
<L84Supper>
it should, but he's still clueless as to how this all works

you need not know how it works. Stick a card into a device in a lab (garage) let it run for a day, if it works device is certified to run with that card ;-)

awesome :) I repurposed an old ATX case to hold my MK802 :)
<hramrach>
any reason to do that?

aren't ATX cases a little too big for an hdmi dongle?

actually it's the MK802 + USB hub + USB NIC + USB soundcard + USD DisplayLink VGA + USB to PS/2 converter

six functional units

+ a complete jumble of wires

between them

<rm>
mnemoc, it's not too pretty and I don't have a camera
<mnemoc>
excuses :<
<rm>
I mean it is exceptionally pretty and clean on the OUTSIDE
<rm>
but inside the case only the MK802 is fixed in some fashion
<rm>
the rest is kind of positioned in a free manner :D
<rm>
but beats by 100x
<rm>
having all of this outside just lying around the place
<hramrach>
did you fix the peripherials to an ATX backplate to simulate a pc? ;-)
<rm>
yeah I had this idea :)
<rm>
would be cool to make a custom ATX backplate
<rm>
mostly with USB sockets
<rm>
but then more plugs/wires would need to stay on the outside
<rm>
as currently I simply closed off most of the holes on the back
<rm>
and run the wires in through a small one; will need to open the case to disconnect something
<hramrach>
many atx backplates have PS/2, hdmi, audio, etc
<hramrach>
but attaching stuff to it would be kind of challenging
