when i use usb 0 as otg host only i have to set drive manually for the usb to work, is that normakl? we do not have a detect circiiut its basically connected like all the other 2 usb
<Seppoz>
also what is the actual purpose of the drive and hos is it used?
fredy has quit [Excess Flood]
<Seppoz>
is the drive defined by usb standard?
<Seppoz>
or is this some additional feature that i can use if i want to
<Seppoz>
like resetting devices by taking away the power

hi, with cubietruck, the cubieboard lubuntu release has all the modules bulit-in, but they are not loaded at boot. I added them to /etc/modules and reboot, here is the current lsmod output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6731217/ There are still many problems. first, the 2d/3d acceleration is not working. glxinfo shows "OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer". how to fix?

<rz2k>
glxinfo shows "OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer". how to fix?
<rz2k>
why do you think that glxinfo showing that is wrong?
<rz2k>
your sunxi device has no OpenGL acceleration
<rz2k>
it has OpenGLES acceleration
<rz2k>
also to run cubietruck with Mali-400 you need latest stage kernel, cubietruck had couple interesting issues with memory that were fixed couple weeks ago, you will likely have no 3d in the images from cubietech.
<sgo11>
rz2k, thanks a lot for your reply. I am newbie on this. so how to make sure my hw acceleration works? how to check if i have the latest stage kernel or not? my current uname output "Linux cubietruck 3.4.61+"
<sgo11>
rz2k, I am just about to chmod 777 to /dev/ump and /dev/mali. should I do that?
<sgo11>
rz2k, I just want to play 1080p videos. currently, I even can't play 720p video. I know nothing about hardware. I just want to play videos in both mplayer and chromium and faster lxde etc.. so do I need gles? thanks a lot.
<rz2k>
hmmm
<sgo11>
currently, my free memory is 573 out of 1825. I don't understand this either. my lxde is too slow. I don't run anything. the memory used up very quickly.
<hani>
rz2k : i've some Qs about the yuq mtd driver since u had some experience with it in that past
<rz2k>
first, to play 1080p you need CedarX acceleration, second, you can install one of three options: VLC media player with CedarX support, XBMC with CedarX support (needs OpenGLES), libvdpau-sunxi library and any vdpau player (mplayer)
<rz2k>
hani: ask freely
<rz2k>
sgo11: or if you need only the videoplayer, you can just run the Android
<sgo11>
rz2k, my vlc currently has segmentation fault error when play mp3 music. I have no idea why. mplayer can play mp3 fine. PS: my goal of cubietruck is to replace my laptop. so android is not sufficient for this purpose. btw, how to install/enable CedarX acceleration? thanks a lot.
<hani>
I'm trying to use the u-boot in the yuq repo I'm facing an issue with the implementation of the PACK image wondering if u know anything about it
<sgo11>
rz2k, I just cvh
<rz2k>
sgo11: you need to compile your own VLC there are page at wiki, for cedarx acceleartion you only need the programs who can use cedarx.
<rz2k>
s/there are page/there are page about it/
<rz2k>
hani: honestly no idea, didnt try the images with mtd
<rz2k>
sgo11: try libvdpau-sunxi first probably, it can only run h264 and mpeg12, but it will work in any player (most common is mplayer).
<hani>
r2zk: I've manged to build u-boot and spl and flash it into the nand but was not able to load the kernel
<rz2k>
hani: sorry, I only debugged mtd and faced some issues there for NANDs that are use on Olinuxino boards
<rz2k>
it is too early to do SPL support when we have MTD failing on most popular board.
<sgo11>
rz2k, thanks. how to install libvdpau-sunxi ? and besides the 1080p play, how to make lxde run faster? do I need the latest kernel or GLES? thanks.
<sgo11>
rz2k, sorry about too many questions. I am new to arm and hw. my current free mem is 83M. Total is 1968M. no idea. Does cpufre issue cause this? thanks.
<rz2k>
install htop and check who eats the RAM
<sgo11>
I only run xchat and chromium. ok. let me see.
<hani>
rz2k : Can u please elaborate on those failures?
<rz2k>
hani: 1) it is not clear how to properly use the OOB area and how to represent it to MTD layer when running hardware ECC. 2) badblock detection does not always detect bad blocks correctly
<rz2k>
first issue causes UBIFS and other filesystem using OOB to fail after 10-50 reboots
<rz2k>
filesystems*
<rz2k>
some guys from Italy mailed me with exactly the same issue with Yuq driver, but timeframe for them was 100 reboots
<sgo11>
rz2k, I tried the second script from Cpufreq wiki page. lxde does not seem faster.
<hani>
r2zk : So it is not ready for production yet, how about the current NFC is there any limitation?
<hani>
rz2k I ment lichee implemenation
<rz2k>
sgo11: unfortunately, I cant be responsible for the cubietech images because they did not consult with us when they made them. I dont know what version of Linaro/Ubuntu they use, what modifications they made and what eats your RAM there.
fredy has quit [Excess Flood]
<rz2k>
sgo11: I did not encounter any hardcore slowness (response >2sec) with just standrad linaro-alip and selfcompiled kernel. also, do you run your system from SD card or NAND?
<rz2k>
hani: no, current NFC works ok, but it is sort of slow and ugly coded.
<rz2k>
hani: example - you cant have partition 4GB+ because it uses something like FAT16 as partition table
fredy has joined #linux-sunxi
<sgo11>
rz2k, I am very sorry. the memory usage might be fine. I read the wrong number. I used free -m, I think I should read -/+ buffers/cache line instead of the first line. it's 785M out of 1968M. I am running from sandisk class10 SD. When I say it's slow, it's slower than my 4 years old laptop. When I open chromium tabs, input texts in chromium, when I resize windows, they are slow.
<hani>
rz2k : h've had a chance to test Boris BREZILLON patches
<rz2k>
sgo11: try to complete the installation of Xorg drivers wiki page http://linux-sunxi.org/Binary_drivers, they help with the resizing issues and they also provide support for Xvideo
<rz2k>
785M out of 2G is likely your chromium
<rz2k>
sgo11: also read a paragraph under "Setting up X", it will answer your 2d/3d questions
<sgo11>
rz2k, thank you very much for the help. I still have some silly questions if you can answer. (1) if I followed the wiki and install sunxifb driver, do I need the latest stage kernel? you said I need the latest kernel to enable GLES. I don't really know what it is. (2) does 2d/3d hw acceleration make lxde and UI apps faster? (3) I modified the default /etc/modules, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6731778/ can you please have look, is this OK? thanks.
<sgo11>
PS: (4) Do I need to sudo chmod 777 /dev/ump and /dev/mali ? I read some posts about this. their current permission are "crw-rw----"

lxde does not depend on 3d support, you need Xorg driver from that page which has 2d acceleration support

you should have latest kernel, with your current you will likely have 2d acceleration, but 3d acceleration will not work

it will do the needed chmod/chgrp for you at module load
<sgo11>
rz2k, oh, I have one last question. once I have the latest kernel, do I need to do anything to enable GLES?

go exactly as binary drivers page says

hello
<hramrach>
if we had a mainline nand driver
<hramrach>
what would be a resonable way to represent the bootloader area?
<hramrach>
like use a commandline partition table? or make it part of the sunxi driver ?
<hramrach>
would it be reasonable to provide an option to stora data on whole nand without the boot area - like when you have another flash you boot from or w/e
<hramrach>
you could detect the bootloader signature in the driver and reserve the bootloader are a when present but how do you write the boot area on a blank nand then?

so the contained filesystem is just wrong size

i never touched this partition or the fs on it
enrico__ has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
<hramrach>
maybe it was 128MB at the start but nand_part helpfully resized it to the defeualt 32mb
<hramrach>
do you have backup of the original nand content?
<libv>
oh, yeah, i have all the data i need, even have a full dump of /dev/nand
<libv>
pretty awful though, to discover this.
<libv>
how many other devices are broken like this?
<hramrach>
you should be able to mount it as loop and have the kernel scan the partition table with new enough mount(8)
<hramrach>
you need util-linux 2.21 or 2.22 for that
<libv>
ah, true
<hramrach>
the 2.20 in debian don't suffice
<libv>
:)
<jemk>
wingrime: what do you mean?
<libv>
hramrach: seems i will need to use offsets then
<hramrach>
libv: better get the new mount
<hramrach>
so you can see how the kernel interprets the stuff
<hramrach>
ok, running nand_part on the dump as readonly lopp should suffice
<hramrach>
libv: you are on the a23 tablet?
<libv>
the a13, where i had no other option but to use nand
<hramrach>
hmm, so far all devices had 16mb boot so nand_part enforces that
<hramrach>
but I guess it is not a good idea
<libv>
it's a quite severely bad idea
<hramrach>
libv: what is the command that gives you the vfat filesystem size?
<libv>
df
<hramrach>
ok
<hramrach>
libv: there is a mode in nand_part already that allows you to specify the boot size according to the nand installation guide
<hramrach>
does it work for you?
<libv>
hramrach: ...
<libv>
hramrach: i am not killing that installation anymore at this point, i have wasted an enormous amount of time on figuring this shit out to begin with
<hramrach>

<wingrime>
jemk: I mean, must be some trigger for erase current state of decoder sub engine
<libv>
hramrach: when typing it up properly, i discovered the discrepancy
<jemk>
wingrime: why? i don't think this exists.
<hramrach>
libv: it's just matter of tarring up the / and then untarring it again after repartitioning
<jemk>
wingrime: all state is in registers, you simply can write what you want there
<libv>
hramrach: yeah, that's my plan, but first i want to find out what really went wrong
<libv>
heh... my dump of /dev/nand is not finding vfat at logical offsets
<hramrach>
try the new mount :P
<libv>
i believe i have mounted from offsets before
<libv>
and i am not updating my main system and open up a whole new can of worms in the process.
<hramrach>
it would only work on the sunxi kernel anyway
<libv>
?
<libv>
surely filesystems can be mounted from any point in an image, without needing to have to be able to read the partition table
<wingrime>
jemk: regs, sure, but internal sram should be cleanable with one command
<hramrach>
libv: the sunxi partition scheme is not supported by your main system
<jemk>
wingrime: why would you want to clean sram?
<libv>
hah
<libv>
it's at 16MB
<libv>
thank you nand-part.
<hramrach>
so they put a 128MB filesystem into a 16MB partition in the factory?
<libv>
no

<libv>
the partition of the original nand content start at 16MB
<libv>
ah, no, it still starts there. good
<hramrach>
yes. it's the default
<libv>
mixed it up with the mele a1000 in the nand example
<libv>
that offset worked now
<libv>
128MB
<hramrach>
and the size reported by nand_part?

libv: what's the tizen-sunxi community! never heard o it :(
<wingrime>
jemk: for example I want switch video on the fly
<libv>
hramrach: it could be that i myself badly wrote the new partition table
<hramrach>
nand_part defaults to making the boot partition 16mb regardless of original size I think
<hramrach>
but was it like that on the original nand or was it different?
<jemk>

if tizen will ever get usable at all :D

nand-part of course refuses to read a file
<libv>
but from what i can tell, it says 32M offset and 32M size in the table

wingrime: how certain you are that MACC_AVC_CTRL irq enable is bit 7, in the test that i did it is bit 0 that make VE_WAIT timeout
<oliv3r>
jemk: is your vdpau easily cross compileable? or does it rely on to many things?
<jemk>
nove: I also use bit 0, more precise bit 0-2, so mask 0x7, maybe thats where the 7 comes from
<oliv3r>
i should just get a precompiled lib :
<jemk>
oliv3r: i don't know :D always compiled native

ah, crap, i had forgotten about replacing script.bin
<libv>
still boots though
<libv>
hramrach: thanks for helping out, i will document that one should mount, backup, and check fs size before rewriting the nand
<hramrach>
libv: you can set up loop device with the dump and run nand_part on that
<hramrach>
libv: the guide is quite explicit about backing up the nand and checking what you have before and after partitioning
<hramrach>
libv: df and sfdisk shows kilobytesn and nand_part sectors so nand_part should show twice what df and sfdisk shows
<wingrime>
nove: you can check a23 kernel for that, IRQ for AVC form it
<hramrach>
so if it starts with 32 it's probably 16M
<wingrime>
nove: and don't forget , current drivers looks like not support irq from AVC or ISP,
<wingrime>
nove: I not realy sure, but looks like they added it only in a23 code
<sgo11>
mnemoc, I am very sorry to interrupt you. I just used linux-sunxi-stage-3.4-sun7i-latest.tar.xz. I simply "cp -a" to my existing system. "uname -a" shows the latest kernel. but I lost my wlan0 wireless interface. I do keep "/lib/firmware/ap6210/" which the latest kernel does not have. do you have any ideas why I lost my wlan0? lsmod shows bcmdhd is loaded. thanks.
<wingrime>
nove: or they not used AVC irq
<wingrime>
nove: before a23 new blob
<sgo11>
since rz2k is not here, I don't know who I can ask.
<nove>
wingrime: a23 cedar hardware is also updated, so that is one difference
<oliv3r>
ssvb: yeah quite choppy; but it shouldn't really be a huge deal to 'port', I mean, tizen runs on linux, we have a well running kernel; so any distro ontop of that should work reasonably well

jemk: can you host a precompiled vdpau bin somewhere I can download?
<oliv3r>
sgo11: i have no clue; the ap6210 wifi is highly experimental
<sgo11>
oliv3r, actually, I don't know what ap6210 is. rz2k told me my kernel didn't support 3d acceleration. there was a problem. I have to use the latest kernel. then I download the latest nightly build. I cp -a uImage, firmware, modules to my existing system. I saw ap6210 is not in the nightly build kernel, thus, I keep it in firmware. that's all I did. then wlan0 is gone.
<oliv3r>
/lib/firmware is only the firmware it's not the actualy driver
paulk-collins has joined #linux-sunxi
<wingrime>
nove: I think IRQ should be in AVC already as logical part of cedar design style
<sgo11>
oliv3r, so where is the actual driver? maybe I should diff the two modules to see what is lost.
<oliv3r>
sgo11: i'm not sure if it has been fully ported yet
<oliv3r>
wens: do we have that driver yet?

oliv3r: BCM43662? was submitted by Arend, should be in wireless-next for 3.14

<jemk>
but nove is right ;)

jemk: thank you! make install will put that in /usr/lib right

yep

no

ok

oliv3r: I thought bcmdhd in 3.4 works?
<oliv3r>
dunno; hence my question :)
<wens>
I only used cubietech's tree :(
<sgo11>
bcmdhd in 3.4 works. it works in my old kernel. today, when I try to use the nightly build kernel. I just lost my wlan0.
<wens>
oliv3r: i remember something about cubietech replacing bcmdhd with an older version?

they took an old version of the driver and patched it to work with the hardware
<hramrach>
so you get either old buggy driver incompatible with current kernel that can use the hardware or completely different driver in sunxi which does not support the hardware and the diff between the two is huge and has lots of architectural changes
<hramrach>
maybe somebody patched it in, can't keep up with all the stuff
<sgo11>
I tried simply cp the old bcmdhd.ko. it does not work. maybe I have to stick with the old kernel. wifi is important to me. thank all for the help. gotta have some sleep first. thanks.
sgo11 is now known as sgo11_sleep
<hramrach>
yes, it's important. But he drivers are really crappy so looks like nobody managed to merge it so far :/
<hramrach>
also it seems bcm supports this on mainline
<hramrach>
but not ancient kernels ..

hramrach: since you wrote your howto for sun4i, how hard will it be for you to copy and test patch 4 on sun4i?
<libv>
if i get your ack, then when that code makes it to the lichee-dev branch it will severely simplify this howto

jemk: for jpeg encoder
* nove
still didn't started the poc jpeg encoder
<wingrime>
jemk: also, there thing, you should do - make normal, shared header whith registers and bit sets
<hramrach>
anyway, it is not clear how much is hardcoded in the bootloader and how much is read from the nand so the code from ancient times tried to make the boot partition consistent with existing device
<wingrime>
jemk: curently I see , regs defenition are not in single place, thats problematic
<hramrach>
but since devices with different layout are now known it's probably better to update it to keep the partition as is instead
