| 09:07.03 | blaster8 | they are in the 2.6.19 directory (not 2.6.18) |
| 09:07.09 | blaster8 | Thanks for your work on the SVN repo |

| 09:14.16 | blaster8 | One last thing from me |
| 09:14.26 | blaster8 | I'm not moving the loft config patch to 2.6.19 |
| 09:15.14 | blaster8 | We need to integrate the libata CF patch, then as the ixdp425-setup.c suggests, produce a separate avila setup file (with Loft support) |
| 09:15.43 | blaster8 | That should go into 2.6.19, then go upstream |
| 09:15.57 | blaster8 | ok :) |
| 09:20.48 | [g2] | blaster8 re: the CF patch, sounds good |
| 09:21.40 | dwery | blaster8: I need to convert the libata cf to the driver model.. I thought I did did.. but maybe was the ep93xx libata pata driver |
| 09:22.04 | blaster8 | I saw a libata ixp4xx driver somewhere |
| 09:22.31 | blaster8 | http://trac.nslu2-linux.org/kernel/browser/archived/intel_eth/patches/2.6.18/96-pata-ixp4xx.patch |
| 09:23.38 | dwery | yep, that's mine :) |
| 09:23.57 | blaster8 | so, less work? - just need to move that file to drivers/ata and check it works ?? |
| 09:24.30 | dwery | yes. The last time I used that drivers was months ago on the Loft |
| 09:24.36 | dwery | I need to check if it still works |
| 09:25.23 | blaster8 | ok, we should be able to get loft support in piggy-backed on the CF card updates :) |

| 09:27.06 | dwery | i don't know how is the cf connected on the Avila but I suspect the same way as the loft |
| 09:27.35 | blaster8 | ask [g2] - I think the 2 boards are very similar |
| 09:28.31 | [g2] | the Loft is a custom Avila board |
| 09:29.00 | blaster8 | so the cf should be connected the same way? |
| 09:40.31 | blaster8 | OK, Christian got back to me |
| 09:40.45 | blaster8 | He says we should switch to data coherent mode for increased performance |

| 20:33.48 | Szafran | morning |
| 20:34.33 | Szafran | i'd like to know if some1 allready found an alternative to apex for enabling memory mod on the slug |
| 20:34.35 | Szafran | ?? |
| 20:38.40 | [g2] | Szafran what's the issue ? |
| 20:38.52 | [g2] | The bootloader needs to configure memory properly |
| 20:39.05 | [g2] | which means you'll need an updated bootloader |
| 20:39.21 | [g2] | APEX probably has the most air time on the nslu2 |
| 20:39.47 | [g2] | and you should definitely be JTAG ready if you are adding memory |
| 20:40.01 | Szafran | i allready have the mem mod |
| 20:40.02 | [g2] | you could even use the JTAG for testing for shorts |
| 20:40.15 | Szafran | i don't have the ability to configure apex |
| 20:40.32 | [g2] | Szafran I don't understand what you mean |
| 20:40.43 | Szafran | i've tried 3 different perspectives for a serial mod and none worked |
| 20:41.00 | [g2] | so you don't have serial ? |
| 20:41.04 | Szafran | nope |
| 20:41.20 | [g2] | phone call |

| 20:58.13 | Szafran | the thing with the serial mod is that each time there was only one way connection - i couldn't write anything to the slug - i've tried a module from a siemens phone cable, a module with max3232 compatible and finally i bought a module with the original max3232 - all the same - only one way connection - wasted over a month for test and stuff - checked the connections betwen cable and ixp processor and everything looked ok. i don't have a |
| 21:04.36 | HopsNBarley | did you get the level converter? |
| 21:07.14 | HopsNBarley | Szafran, do you get a plus sign right at power on? i do, fwiw. |
| 21:07.25 | Szafran | yep |
| 21:07.44 | HopsNBarley | ah, but it's input that's not working. |
| 21:07.52 | Szafran | yes |
| 21:07.55 | HopsNBarley | wierd. |
| 21:08.01 | Szafran | i know |
| 21:08.08 | Szafran | 3x weird |
| 21:08.08 | HopsNBarley | you are using a level converter and all that i assume.... |
| 21:08.16 | Szafran | yes |
| 21:09.05 | HopsNBarley | also assume you've tried reversing the input pair of leads. |
| 21:09.19 | Szafran | you mean rx/tx ?? |
| 21:09.27 | Szafran | if so ... then yes |
| 21:09.40 | HopsNBarley | no, the tx+/tx- order |
| 21:10.41 | Szafran | also... yes |
| 21:10.42 | HopsNBarley | we know the rx works (-; |
| 21:10.42 | Szafran | ;) |
| 21:10.42 | HopsNBarley | what kind of DTE are you using, minicom or something? |
| 21:10.42 | Szafran | DTE ? |
| 21:10.55 | HopsNBarley | oh, old timer expression : data terminal equipment. in serial communications such terms are important |
| 21:11.07 | HopsNBarley | just think terminal. |
| 21:11.21 | HopsNBarley | or a x86 serial port |
| 21:11.38 | Szafran | i'm using soft on my pc |
| 21:11.46 | Szafran | if that's what u mean |
| 21:12.01 | HopsNBarley | setting the parity and word size correct to 8/n/1? |
| 21:12.22 | Szafran | tried a few proggys on windows and linu systems with different settings... nothing helped |
| 21:12.29 | Szafran | *linux |
| 21:12.31 | HopsNBarley | okay. |
| 21:13.15 | HopsNBarley | well - it looks like a hardware problem. you could try another slug... or another level converter. |
| 21:13.17 | HopsNBarley | sorry |
| 21:14.05 | Szafran | i've allready delpeted the money resources for this, so i need to find an alternative now |
| 21:14.15 | Szafran | *depleted |
| 21:15.18 | HopsNBarley | that's a bummer. tried a different serial cable? |
| 21:15.25 | Szafran | is there a way to make the kernel to use the command line in the /boot/config* file instead of using the command line passed to it by the boot loader |
| 21:15.39 | Szafran | yep... different cables, different chips |
| 21:16.00 | HopsNBarley | bad luck. |
| 21:18.44 | Szafran | any1, anything ? i'm desperate - 32mb is not enough, sure could use the power of the 128mb that is allready on the board :/ |
| 21:21.00 | likewise | Szafran: its APEX on the board? |
| 21:21.23 | likewise | Szafran: or RedBoot? |
| 21:21.47 | Szafran | redboot |
| 21:22.05 | Szafran | flashing apex without serial makes no sense |
| 21:22.30 | likewise | you can manually set the SDRAM controller register if you get into the command prompt |
| 21:22.54 | likewise | if the default Redboot is installed with has memory modify function |
| 21:22.56 | likewise | s |
| 21:23.28 | Szafran | how ? and would it be done permanently or do i have to do it every time i boot the slug ? |
| 21:24.25 | Szafran | i have debianslug beta 2 from 2006.03.11 flashed |
| 21:28.38 | Szafran | likewise: can you tell me how can i do it ? or give me a link for site with description on how to do it ? |
| 21:28.51 | CIA-8 | 03bzhou * r4256 10optware/trunk/ (4 files in 2 dirs): python24: upstream upgrade to 2.4.4 |
| 21:30.34 | likewise | szafran: It's low level, you would use the redboot to modify IXP4xx registers. You need to read the IXP4xx docs on the SDRAM memory controller. "mm 0xcc000000 0x00000018" for example in RedBoot. |
| 21:31.04 | likewise | szafran: but forget it, this is low-level stuff |
| 21:32.07 | Szafran | so if sthing goes wrong there's no way of coming back ? |
| 21:32.50 | likewise | Szafran: of course, just reset and everything is fine |
| 21:33.24 | Szafran | oh... so the changes aren't permanent |
| 21:34.06 | Szafran | but if i'd find that it's working fine is there a way to make it permanent after doing some test ?? |
| 21:45.15 | likewise | Szafran: yes, build a new bootloader |
| 21:45.56 | likewise | szafran: or modify the Redboot fconfig script, that way you do not need to build the bootloader |

| 21:51.47 | Szafran | i don't know if that version of redboot is able to edit fconfig - as i remember i've tried that once a long time ago and it said that it does not recognize the command |

| 22:34.36 | [g2] | bummer Szafran left |
| 22:34.56 | [g2] | Szafran double check the flow-control on the serial connection |
| 22:35.01 | [g2] | it needs to be off |
| 22:36.57 | HopsNBarley|bike | i'm not sure that will make any diff. as there are no hw flow lines connecting the devices. |
| 22:37.05 | HopsNBarley|bike | but you never know :-) |
