13:49.05bchappditto
13:49.39prpplaguebchapp: this channel is mostly populated with embedded linux developers
13:51.04prpplaguebchapp: we generally have a pretty good selection of professionals here
13:51.49TheCollectorbchapp: and a good selection of n00bs such as myself ;)
13:52.26prpplaguebchapp was just hired at aml entry level for doing some embedded work
13:52.29bchappTheCollector: I feel welcome already
13:52.47TheCollectorgood :)
13:52.48file[laptop]and a free VoIP phone with free service!
13:53.12bchappfile[laptop]: thank you
14:06.31prpplaguebchapp: the current build system for the m-7100 is a hodge podge of a bunch of scripts and such
14:06.53prpplaguebchapp: we need to move it all over to either buildroot or openembedded
14:07.10prpplaguebchapp: with buildroot being first choice
14:07.28Wingnutprpplague: gram over in #ol has done some work with buildroot, he may be able to answer some questions
14:08.05prpplagueWingnut: thanks, i'll keep that in mind
14:08.24prpplagueWingnut: i've done a number of buildroot conversions, but you can always use the help
14:08.37Wingnutindeed
14:22.09CosmicPenguinYodididly
14:26.24prpplagueCosmicPenguin: morning
14:26.45prpplaguebchapp: CosmicPenguin is the lead linux developer for the AMD geode line
14:26.55file[laptop]and an all around great guy
14:27.05prpplaguebchapp: also does a little work on the alchemy processor as well

14:29.29prpplaguemallum: morning
14:29.59CosmicPenguinbchapp: greetings.. :)
14:30.23mallumhey prpplague, file[laptop], CosmicPenguin
14:30.27prpplaguebchapp: mallum is author of matchbox - http://www.linuxdevices.com/news/NS8608661173.html
14:42.25CosmicPenguinWow, cool - I found the GX BSDL files
14:49.38prpplagueCosmicPenguin: lovely
14:49.51prpplagueCosmicPenguin: you see that post on linuxdevices about the amd thin client?
14:53.49CosmicPenguinI try not to give linuxdevices eyeballs unless I have to
14:53.50CosmicPenguinwhats up?
14:55.54prpplagueCosmicPenguin: just another post about the geode based thin client
15:01.58TheCollectoranyone ever tried to extend the cable legnths for the screen on the tuxscreen?
15:07.18prpplagueTheCollector: yea, doesn't work well
15:07.30prpplagueTheCollector: the timing on a 640x480 is very sensitive
15:07.31CosmicPenguinprpplague: heh - I told you guys about that like four months ago... :)
15:07.38CosmicPenguingood to see that LD is right on top of things
15:07.44prpplagueCosmicPenguin: hehe
15:08.42TheCollectorprpplague: how did you try to extend the legnth?
15:11.48prpplagueTheCollector: just make a longer ribbon cable
15:12.13TheCollectorah
15:13.15prpplagueTheCollector: really difficult to do a digital signal over that distance and still get good quality
15:13.36TheCollectorso I've chatted it up with a couple EEs, and the concensus is that if I step up the voltage w/ buffers for the long cable run and step back down to the regular voltage, it should work fine
15:14.06prpplagueTheCollector: yea, that might work
15:14.21TheCollectorgood, good... :-D
15:14.43prpplagueTheCollector: but you start running into some timing issues
15:15.29TheCollectorjust with the amt. of time for setup on the buffers and the time for the signal to complete the run of the cable?
15:18.17prpplagueTheCollector: yea, you are looking at some propogation time
15:18.53TheCollectorhmmm
15:19.17TheCollectormy car + tuxscreen dreams may have just died
15:21.58CosmicPenguinMy boss and my co-worker are having heated discussions about star trek physics
15:23.02CosmicPenguinprpplague: I'm working on making a general purpose jtag library for geode and alchemy devices
15:23.29CosmicPenguinprpplague: We currently use FS2 debug boxes, and while they are cool, they cost a ton and need windows software
15:23.53CosmicPenguinprpplague: I figure if we made holly gates devices and gave em out like candy, that it would really be useful for our customers
15:24.06TheCollectorprpplague: any idea of how long a cable run do you think I can get if i step the signaling up to 5V?
15:25.08prpplagueTheCollector: sorry no i don't know
15:25.22prpplagueTheCollector: T0mW might have a better idea about that
15:25.24TheCollectorok
15:25.38prpplagueCosmicPenguin: yea, thats what we are thinking about our boards as well
15:26.02prpplagueCosmicPenguin: i think jtag has become a new challenge for alot of devrs
15:27.39CosmicPenguinMy co-worker is working on a method whereby we can dump the memory of a system onto a USB key using only jtag

15:57.50prpplagueTimRiker: yea

15:58.02prpplagueTimRiker: sf that is
15:58.11prpplagueTimRiker: what the heck was wrong with the wiki?
15:59.05prpplaguethis char shifting issue is driving me nuts
16:05.55TimRikerprpplague: I presume that they finally made the read-only changes. and the wiki does not like it.
16:06.37TimRikerI moved the wiki data to /tmp/persistant/elinux/wiki/ but then the server went bye bye. it may work fine once the server comes back from lunch.
16:07.26TimRikeronce I get setup in Utah, I'll likely move the wiki to my home server so we can have email etc working.
16:07.43TimRikerthen you can use the photo gallery etc.
16:08.07TimRikermore work for me, but things should be up more than sf, and not as restricted.

19:31.36CosmicPenguinBut in the future, if any of you end up working for AMD, make sure you tell 'em I sent you, even if I didn't
