| 12:33:47 | | bonjour, seletz |
| 12:33:47 | seletz | hi |
| 15:04:34 | | niihau, seletz |
| 15:04:34 | seletz | prpplague: hi |
| 15:04:51 | seletz | prpplague: ever read from _keyboard_ on linux |
| 15:05:16 | seletz | prpplague: i'm in serial/console/lcd/keyboard confusion |
| 15:05:38 | seletz | prpplague: i need to read _keyboard_ input, attached to my board. |
| 15:06:12 | seletz | prpplague: when i press a key, it appears on LCD, but my app does'nt read it |
| 15:06:24 | seletz | any idea? |
| 15:11:14 | prpplague | seletz: where is the keyboard connected? |
| 15:11:32 | prpplague | seletz: are we talking a serial keyboard, or something else? |
| 15:12:43 | seletz | prpplague: its a PS/2 keyboard connected to a PS/2 controller on my board |
| 15:13:25 | seletz | prpplague: the controller works, and the low-level driver, because i can type and see the keys on my LCD |
| 15:14:00 | seletz | prpplague: i tried to od -x /dev/console and such, but i only see the output om my LCD, nothing more. |
| 15:14:26 | seletz | prpplague: i disabled console on serial |
| 15:14:38 | seletz | prpplague: i enabled virtual consoles |
| 15:16:02 | prpplague | seletz: ohh, you got me there, i've not made the leap to ps/2 interfaces on the sa-11xx yet |
| 15:16:35 | seletz | prpplague: how does this work on a PC? |
| 15:18:01 | seletz | time to ask the LAK list i think |
| 15:18:31 | seletz | i searched the lists but found nothing helpful |
| 15:19:05 | prpplague | seletz: sorry, i can't help, its just not something i've gotten to yet |
| 15:19:15 | seletz | argl |
| 15:21:30 | prpplague | seletz: i'm trying to learn one step at a time |
| 15:22:40 | prpplague | seletz: btw, had a quick question |
| 15:23:10 | prpplague | seletz: how many bus connectors will be on the cpu board we've been discussing? 1 or 2? |
| 15:37:44 | seletz | prpplague: i think 2 (mechanical stability and # of pins) |
| 15:38:27 | prpplague | seletz: thats was what i'm thinking |
| 15:39:31 | prpplague | seletz: idea...... |
| 15:39:41 | prpplague | seletz: 1. we have our core board |
| 15:40:19 | prpplague | seletz: 2. we have a core board with only a slot for using a trizeps core |
| 15:40:43 | prpplague | seletz: this way the main boards we design can use either our core or the trizeps |
| 15:41:46 | seletz | prpplague: ok, but why use the trizeps? Consider you'd have to build some sort of so-dimm => hack kit conn adapter |
| 15:42:28 | prpplague | seletz: i just thinking flexiblity |
| 15:42:50 | prpplague | seletz: i think it would be easy AFTER we have all off our stuff running to create the adapter |
| 15:45:45 | seletz | prpplague: flexibility is good, no doubt about that. But such an andapter would be quite expensive i guess: 2 connectors, a SO-DIMM socket, layout etc. |
| 15:46:34 | prpplague | seletz: $50-$100USD? |
| 16:02:25 | seletz | DOH!!!!! |
| 16:02:33 | seletz | mingetty was running on tty1 |
| 16:02:44 | prpplague | argh |
| 16:02:58 | prpplague | its always something simple |
