<KnowResistance> Hi Guys
<n3glv> hello
<KnowResistance> I have an issue I was hoping that someone could help me with
<KnowResistance> Pink screen issue over hdmi for cubieboard2 A20
<KnowResistance> Does anyone have any leads on this?
<n3glv> on android?
Thorn has joined #cubieboard
<n3glv> seen people say stuff about their nand got corrupted.. others about resolution issues on monitor
<KnowResistance> Yeah it's an android build with the sdk cubieboard providied
<KnowResistance> I heard about those issues
<KnowResistance> But this is an issues that occurs even when plugged directly into a tv that supports both 1080p and 720p
<n3glv> and if board is running a refresh that the tv does not like etc?
<KnowResistance> I was thinking that maybe it has something to do with the display driver in the kernel but I don't really know anything about kernel tinkering
<n3glv> or are you saying , all monitors/tv do this
<KnowResistance> Just my home one so far, also when I use the HDMI to DVI connector to my monitor I get the same pink issues
<KnowResistance> So pink on tv and monitor
<n3glv> k
<KnowResistance> I think it has something to do with RGB vs YUV
<n3glv> I don't know the cause but personally would try another version / os etc
<n3glv> yes, think it could be in the kernel / boot paramaters
<KnowResistance> I read something about a boot file that initializes the screen, but i couldn't find that file in the sources or in the final build files....
<n3glv> if you had shell or jtag access maybe could fix it
<n3glv> ie not rely on graphics
<KnowResistance> jtag?
<KnowResistance> I have adb access
<KnowResistance> I can fiddle around with that, but I am building from source so I can control what goes onto the nand
<zombu2> serial console
<n3glv> adb shell
<n3glv> tada, serial access
<n3glv> can even become root
<zombu2> b b b but the serial console is so cool
<KnowResistance> oh, the serial connectors that came with the board? The ones that connect directly to the i/o pins?
<n3glv> KnowResistance: type 'adb shell'
<n3glv> you are IN THE BOARD
<n3glv> if you are, as you said, cooking your own android, you should have ROOT / full rw access to file system

<KnowResistance> yep, I can get in but what do I need to edit

<n3glv> if you know enough to make your own android build, I would expect you to know what to edit
SquirrelCZECH has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
<KnowResistance> knowing how to set up an android build environment does not mean I know how the boot process works
<zombu2> well you dhould
<KnowResistance> how is that a logical link?
<KnowResistance> I don't need people telling me the things that I should know, I am here for advice from people that know more than me. Can you guys just point me in the right direction?
<n3glv> forums
<n3glv> subject = making your own android build
<n3glv> subject = graphics settings, boot, android, yourboard?
<n3glv> I have a cubietruck
<n3glv> with some issues
<n3glv> and am not an expert, never said I was
bizarro_1 has quit [Quit: Leaving]
<zombu2> let me help you
* zombu2 point to the door
<n3glv> already said, try a new / other version
<n3glv> if it works, then obviously the hardware is ok and it's your code
indy has joined #cubieboard
<n3glv> if you want I can paste where i said that a while ago
<n3glv> I do not have the magic "press this button" or "edit this file" fix
<n3glv> I think it's in the setup for the graphics card, the equiv to x.org stuff
<n3glv> no bloody idea where that lives in android
<n3glv> and BARELY an idea where it would be in full linux
<n3glv> but did tell you to try a shell and you said you did not have shell access, yet you said you have ADB
<n3glv> and ADB == shell access
<KnowResistance> You never said you weren't an expert, and you were giving me some good answers untill you got your periods and did a 180.
<KnowResistance> yeah
<KnowResistance> that's right
<KnowResistance> i said "yep, i have adb"
<KnowResistance> I know what shell access is.
<KnowResistance> there are many kinds of shells
<KnowResistance> of which adb is one
<KnowResistance> shell access in and of itself does not solve my problem
<n3glv> shell can edit
<n3glv> google / forums should be able to find WHAT to edit
<KnowResistance> any fool with a computer knows what a shell can do
* n3glv shrugs
<zombu2> hey jeff lets go and work on the bt dongle
<KnowResistance> I have looked throgh google
<n3glv> zombu2: yeah, many projects for that thing
<KnowResistance> That's why I am here
<KnowResistance> Like I said before
<n3glv> don't want Devlap in on them
<n3glv> or the other hams
<KnowResistance> the answers on google did not apply to my setup
<KnowResistance> The boot files they mentioned did not exist
<zombu2> i m bored lets go
<KnowResistance> Don't get pissed off that you don't know the answer, a simple "I don't know man" will do fine.
<n3glv> I said, don't know, but think it's in a or b area
<n3glv> or sounds like ......
<n3glv> trying to give you ideas where to look eh?
<n3glv> hold your hand even
<KnowResistance> OK, so where should I look then?
<n3glv> [22:03] <n3glv> forums
<n3glv> [22:03] <n3glv> subject = making your own android build
<n3glv> [22:03] <n3glv> subject = graphics settings, boot, android, yourboard?
<KnowResistance> I have done that...
<KnowResistance> that is why I am here...
<KnowResistance> whois n3glv
<KnowResistance> why is he the only one here
<zombu2> oh he s not alone
<n3glv> volunteer
<n3glv> support from a volunteer is worth every penny you pay.
<zombu2> i just don t wanna tell ya and it seems nobody else wants to either
<KnowResistance> OK, so beyond "go look in the forums" you have no idea as to where the problem is?
<n3glv> GRAPHICS SETTINGS > BOOTING ANDROID????????

<KnowResistance> wow, you can't read can you
<KnowResistance> beyond "go look in the forums"
<zombu2> GO FUCK YOURSELF now move along you fuckin prick
rainbyte has quit [Quit: Leaving]
<n3glv> lol
<KnowResistance> You guys should really not be such douchebags
<zombu2> how it calls into the forest huh
<n3glv> you asked what to look for
<n3glv> after being told
* n3glv shrugs, now who can't read?
<KnowResistance> The problem wasn't that I couldn't find a forum
kwon has joined #cubieboard
<n3glv> ok, google?
<KnowResistance> looked there too
<KnowResistance> there are lots of people having the same issues
<KnowResistance> no solutions
<KnowResistance> get it
<n3glv> ok
<n3glv> so, try another distro?
<zombu2> jeff stop wasting your time
<KnowResistance> OK, guys I really appreciate your time and I think I am just not laying it down right.
<zombu2> finally now go away
<KnowResistance> OK zombu2, thanks for all your help. Since I am running android, the issue is with the linux kernel right... so getting another distro wouldn't fix my problem because i am building my own distro
<zombu2> maybe you learned something
<KnowResistance> not really
<KnowResistance> maybe you did
<n3glv> so. default kernel works?
<zombu2> but just in case let me tell ya ... don t piss off the ppl that volunteer to help out
<n3glv> piss off / or piss ON
<zombu2> well whatever fits your bill
<zombu2> but knowing you you prolly take the latter
<KnowResistance> default kernal doesn't work it seems, problems with the graphics driver I guess.
<n3glv> so, the cubieboards sunxi or whatever, image don't work?
<KnowResistance> one did, others didn't but the sdk they provide works but has this pink problem on my screens
<KnowResistance> It might be the RGB/YUV issues or like you said the refresh rate
<n3glv> well, I came from raspberry pi stuff, and was SHOCKED at how raw/alpha this stuff is
<KnowResistance> you mean as a finished product?
<KnowResistance> I know that PI has been around for longer right, how come you came to cubieboard?
<n3glv> cubietruck
<n3glv> MUCH more power (supposedly) and sata
<n3glv> wanted to run the one thing that it seems is futile, xbmc media center
<n3glv> so it's a waste of $100
<n3glv> would sell it right now at a loss
<KnowResistance> Yeah, I think the hardware is good but the software is far from where it needs to be.
<n3glv> do you know the term 'neckbeard'?
<KnowResistance> yeah
<n3glv> the kind of devs / forum ppl that assume you are already nearly their equal in skill / background / knolegee?
<n3glv> that is my opinion of 95% of the cubietruck devs
<KnowResistance> lol
<n3glv> the type that also sets MAX RES for every gfx card by default
<n3glv> vs a low-res everyone can use and then adjust UPWARD
<n3glv> fucking tards
<KnowResistance> agree, but the hardware is good.
<n3glv> depends
<KnowResistance> I was lured in by 1080p promises
<n3glv> have yet to get the fbturbo / mali stuff to work
<n3glv> followed same pages as zombu2
<n3glv> nothing
<n3glv> still a toad on xbmc
<n3glv> useless
<n3glv> someone want it for $75+real shipping?
<n3glv> ie usa flat rate box
<KnowResistance> do you think the fbturbo drivers could be causing my issues?
<n3glv> include a 16gb class 10 sd
<n3glv> there is some other fb thing
<n3glv> I forget
<n3glv> is there a modules file that you can edit?
<n3glv> strip out or comment out drivers?
<KnowResistance> I don't know much about how the kernel works, I'm looking into it
<n3glv> ok, on linux there is /etc/modules
<n3glv> and modprobe etc
<n3glv> insmod / rmmod
<KnowResistance> I think there is something I can use to check via adb shell... "adb shell lsmod"
<KnowResistance> or some .config files in the kernel that enable modules
<n3glv> adb shell should get you a prompt, at that point you are logged into droid
<n3glv> there is a root ver of adb shell iirc
<n3glv> I'm not an android hacker, zombu2 is
<KnowResistance> Thanks for you time Jeff
<zombu2> bummer isn t it
<KnowResistance> I found what I'm looking for
KnowResistance has quit [Quit: leaving]
<n3glv> so, he finds, and leaves, vs telling us wtf it was
<n3glv> douchebag indeed
<zombu2> told you not to waste your time

<popolon> bigx, I suppose the procedure is the same
<popolon> you need a recent linux-sunxi kernel (that support nand)
<popolon> there is still work in progress for DMA support, that should release CPU usage for NAND
<popolon> and allwinner boot (sunxi boot only work on SD for now)
<popolon> nand-part must be used to manage NAND partition, so you need this tool during the process too.
tat has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<popolon> could someone confirm that mac address start by 02-49-02
<popolon> ?
<popolon> don't know if that's allwinner specific or automagically generated

<mnemoc> popolon: by default they are random
<mnemoc> popolon: and there are different approached to make them persistent. http://linux-sunxi.org/EMAC
<mnemoc> popolon: some board include an eeprom for this, but the CB doesn't
enrico_ has joined #cubieboard
<popolon> mnemoc, thanks I will look at the page. After several distro, mine looks fixe now, as I use it to push it's IP adress from DHCP server, probably have the answer on this page.
Thorn has joined #cubieboard
<bigx> thx popolon i'll give it a try then
<popolon> there is perhaps also ready-made arch NAND-images flashable by livesuit ?

<jumashev> Could someone help me? I’m stucked with compiling Android kernel :(
<jumashev> The make just finished well - DroidDoc took 61 sec. to write docs to out/target/common/docs/api-stubs - for about 3 hours :)
<jumashev> but pack failed!
<rm> no one uses and/or cares about Android
<jumashev> Just linux room?
<jumashev> I cannot run AIR as well on linux-based distros so the only way for me is android :(
<rm> it's not forbidden to ask, I'm just telling why you maybe won't get a lot of answers ._.
<rm> both here and on the mailing list
