**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Oct 12 03:00:02 2012 Oct 12 05:41:54 av500: teeth shoes? Oct 12 07:30:00 Hi! How to change BeagleBone's resolution via sysfs? Oct 12 08:23:20 <_av500_> mranostay: the bote into the tarmac Oct 12 08:23:23 <_av500_> bite Oct 12 08:23:26 <_av500_> they Oct 12 08:23:28 <_av500_> coffee!! Oct 12 09:18:09 yegorich: you can't Oct 12 09:18:19 yegorich: you need to recompile the kernel to change resolution Oct 12 09:19:15 koen: I thought I saw someting like echo "resolution" > /sys/... Oct 12 09:19:31 koen: is such functionality going to be implemented? Oct 12 09:19:38 not that I know off Oct 12 09:20:00 the only things I heard about is that the OF videomode helpers will get implemented Oct 12 09:20:07 so you only have to change the DT and reboot Oct 12 09:20:33 koen: thanks Oct 12 09:20:35 <_av500_> OF? Oct 12 09:20:45 openfirmware Oct 12 09:20:48 aka DT Oct 12 09:20:52 <_av500_> ah Oct 12 09:21:20 I'm not sure when to say 'OF' and when to say 'DT' Oct 12 09:21:32 but the da8xx mails talk about of bindings Oct 12 09:21:42 koen: also long as you do not mixup of= and if= ;) Oct 12 09:22:38 LetoThe2nd: 'of' is the dutch word for 'oder'/'or' Oct 12 09:23:26 koen: ah. is there also a durch version of dd? ;) Oct 12 09:24:17 not that I know off Oct 12 09:25:46 LetoThe2nd: and also: als=wanneer and wenn=als Oct 12 09:26:04 *facepalm Oct 12 09:26:14 that reversal is hard for me to get used to Oct 12 09:26:19 <_av500_> also trailer=vacation Oct 12 09:26:37 _av500_: hey, didn't you do that thing this year? ;) Oct 12 09:26:53 <_av500_> yes, i'm a cryptodutch Oct 12 09:28:17 a DiD Oct 12 09:28:24 (Dutch in Disguise) Oct 12 09:47:31 koen: what about implementing fb_set_par for da8xx as it is done for OMAPDSS? Oct 12 09:47:43 <_av500_> do it Oct 12 09:48:30 I mean is there anythinh of technical nature that would prevent dynamic resolution change? Oct 12 09:48:58 The stuff seems to work for Beagleboard Oct 12 09:49:34 da8xx implements rather small subset of fb_ops Oct 12 09:50:11 <_av500_> yegorich: I guess there is no technical issue Oct 12 09:50:16 yegorich: no technical limitations Oct 12 09:50:23 <_av500_> i trust the values are not write-once Oct 12 09:50:27 O.K. Oct 12 09:50:28 they aren't Oct 12 09:50:43 the vendor tree has cpufreq support to reprogram the plls Oct 12 09:50:57 My system will have LCD-to-HDMI converter so such functionality won't harm :-( Oct 12 09:50:58 but stopped short of the next step: runtime resolution changes Oct 12 09:51:43 yegorich: I have fb up in my 3.6 tree on the dvi cape, 3.7 still doesn't boot properly Oct 12 09:52:15 koen: I was just about to ask about 3.7 ;-) Oct 12 09:52:36 <_av500_> koen: but for the dvi cape, you'd want it dynamic, no? Oct 12 09:53:05 koen: is there any good tutorial about setting up a proper dt file for am33xx, especially containing pinmux settings? Oct 12 09:56:26 <_av500_> so, we got the nobel peace prize Oct 12 10:15:49 _av500_: yes Oct 12 10:16:28 yegorich: not really, have a look in hacks/ in https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel/tree/3.7 Oct 12 10:18:27 <_av500_> 0x4c 0x6 Oct 12 10:18:30 <_av500_> \o/ Oct 12 10:19:14 _av500_: ain't DT great? Oct 12 10:22:47 <_av500_> koen: I know that every DT I make will have 0x54 Oct 12 10:52:35 koen: thanks for the link. I would be glad if I could see console output on ttyO3 :-) Oct 12 10:54:45 koen, there's this thing called a comment available to solve the magic number problem Oct 12 10:56:59 you mean the thing that will be lying after the next update? Oct 12 10:57:15 koen, but swarren posted a series with preprocessor support (yay!) for dtc to dt-discuss Oct 12 10:57:22 janne, that's it! Oct 12 10:59:39 https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/devicetree-discuss/2012-September/020182.html Oct 12 11:00:17 * mru trolls rmk some more Oct 12 11:00:21 fwiw, swarren was annoyed by lack of a cpp back when he first saw how ugly the magic numbers were for his tegra pinmuxing Oct 12 11:00:37 mru, there's no sport in that...you admitted it already Oct 12 11:16:58 but it's so much fun Oct 12 12:06:50 <_av500_> mru: url? Oct 12 12:07:05 still the same thread Oct 12 12:10:07 so far today he has called me pathetic, idiot, and arrogant Oct 12 12:10:24 who? Oct 12 12:10:26 rmk Oct 12 12:10:33 mru: don't forget outlandish Oct 12 12:10:34 oh Oct 12 12:10:39 <_av500_> mru: remind me the thread topic Oct 12 12:10:40 koen: oh yes, that too Oct 12 12:10:48 *g* Oct 12 12:10:50 "alignment faults in 3.6" Oct 12 12:11:06 ah this thread I skipped it Oct 12 12:11:16 arnd suggested to, the horror, *warn* on kernel unaligned traps Oct 12 12:11:44 that's a sure way to trigger rmk Oct 12 12:12:22 he went off about how he'd spent 20 years perfecting the fixup handler, and that somehow proves that code doing unaligned accesses cannot and should not be fixed Oct 12 12:12:45 despite the people responsible for said code promising in the very same thread to fix any such bugs reported Oct 12 12:17:26 mru the evil closed binaries Oct 12 12:18:19 nobody suggested removing the fixup handler Oct 12 12:18:27 (although I do run without it) Oct 12 12:18:42 ah okay **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Oct 12 17:18:10 2012 **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Oct 12 17:20:22 2012 Oct 12 18:13:33 Friday!!!!!!!!!!!! Oct 12 18:14:47 snoopy dance :) Oct 12 18:15:57 * mranostay wonders what he did wrong in his life to be the "build system expert" here.. Oct 12 18:16:12 has to be punishment for something :) Oct 12 18:28:39 mranostay, people who raise their heads get shot at right? Oct 12 18:30:24 damn resume items Oct 12 18:30:55 only problem is i were to drop all the stuff i hate doing off of it i would be about 5 lines left :) Oct 12 18:35:59 mranostay: being the build system expert is fine, provided I wrote the build system Oct 12 18:36:21 the nail that sticks up gets hammered down Oct 12 18:36:28 heh Oct 12 18:36:32 too true Oct 12 18:57:18 but if you aren't sticking up aren't you already hammered down? :) Oct 12 19:04:04 every time I see NUMA in the kernel, I start to dance Oct 12 19:04:43 Russ: like the numa video?

Oct 12 22:14:16 *gangnam Oct 12 22:25:51 mranostay, gangnam style is never awkward Oct 12 22:31:41 Russ: nope. I am on 5/5 right now Oct 12 22:33:34 I've had the excellent opportunity to kick it gangnam style Oct 12 22:59:35 <_av500_> http://26-26-54.hardwarebug.org/125 Oct 12 23:00:50 <_av500_> djlewis: nah, just back from a train trip Oct 12 23:00:57 <_av500_> and somebody on the internet is wrong Oct 12 23:01:02 <_av500_> that can keep me up all night Oct 12 23:01:28 time to head home in the rain.. later guys Oct 12 23:02:56 <_av500_> rain, we were happy when we had rain....

Not sure I understand why this is required though ? Oct 13 01:51:47 provide more details. what power supply, kernel version you're using, etc Oct 13 01:53:34 5V dc, running linus kernel, 3.6.1 Oct 13 01:56:15 its working now, I just don't see how enabling runtime power management affects the USB HCD functionality Oct 13 01:58:19 runtime pm has tentacles everywhere Oct 13 01:58:40 and it's usually a good thing to have enabled Oct 13 02:07:06 heh Oct 13 02:07:09 am I still supposed to compile qt with -plugin-gfx-powervr? Oct 13 02:07:32 mru: BEER!!!!! Oct 13 02:07:47 mranostay: that's an accurate observation Oct 13 02:09:04 mru: so you staying any extra days after E_ELC? Oct 13 02:09:25 I'm arriving saturday before Oct 13 02:09:32 and leaving thursday evening Oct 13 02:10:49 so no Oct 13 02:11:24 I'm staying a day after in reverse time Oct 13 02:15:14 mru, ok, thanks for the info Oct 13 02:16:45 anybody build qt lately? Oct 13 02:17:24 I'm pretty sure I've built it at least once in the last 15 years Oct 13 02:17:27 does that count? Oct 13 02:17:36 heh Oct 13 02:17:55 about the same i think Oct 13 02:18:27 i think i may have given't a short QT demo at a local LUG when i was 16... Oct 13 02:19:11 i'm trying to figure out what's changed in the build process in the last 2 years Oct 13 02:19:32 it requires another 8GB of ram to link Oct 13 02:19:36 * mru guesses Oct 13 02:19:44 options have changed Oct 13 02:19:57 do you still have to bitbake x11-image? Oct 13 02:20:25 mru: does QT still have sucky license terms? Oct 13 02:20:40 no idea Oct 13 02:21:05 I seriously haven't looked at that stuff for like 10 years Oct 13 02:21:41 then again i don't any gui stuff Oct 13 02:22:00 minus the directfb stuff i just did for my demo Oct 13 02:24:30 ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'x11-image' Oct 13 02:24:33 lol Oct 13 02:27:10 that's part of the instructions from 2009 Oct 13 02:27:22 bitbake x11-image Oct 13 02:27:52 mru, I arrive Sat before and leave Sat after Oct 13 02:28:19 apparnetly I had a mental lapse that has me with two free days in Barcelona Oct 13 02:28:43 I can imagine worse fates Oct 13 02:28:47 yes Oct 13 02:29:11 it is the week without beer theat worries me Oct 13 02:29:26 I'll need to find an Iraish pub or something Oct 13 02:29:58 JViz: check http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/building-angstrom Oct 13 02:30:35 looks like gnome has become preferred Xmanager Oct 13 02:35:30 man Oct 13 02:35:54 i don't want to build gnome just so i can get one lib for a console build Oct 13 02:36:05 that's retarded Oct 13 02:36:17 a lot about gnome is Oct 13 02:36:30 i don't need gnome Oct 13 02:36:41 i have no intention of running gnome Oct 13 02:36:53 then don't stop at console Oct 13 02:37:02 dont, stop Oct 13 02:38:42 does the beagleboard image on narcissus run on bones? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Oct 13 03:00:02 2012
