**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Mar 14 02:59:56 2021 Mar 14 09:24:50 hey:)  is someone experienced in using the gpu on a beagleboard? Mar 14 13:43:01 Maui? Mar 14 16:58:27 steven100, which beagleboard? might want to be more specific. Mar 14 17:20:33 doesnt matter. I want to contribute for GSoC with GPGPU with GLES. But I heard the SGX530 also supports opencl? Mar 14 17:24:40 nope, no opencl support Mar 14 17:28:53 you'll probably want to target the am335x-based beaglebones (i.e. any beaglebone except the -AI) since there's an image available with the ImgTec developer kit already installed Mar 14 17:29:50 getting the gpu drivers to work is not easy in general Mar 14 17:35:42 zmatt, someone was working on DSP operations using the GPU at one time no? Mar 14 17:37:56 I think ds2 maybe? Mar 14 17:38:13 not sure, my memory sucks Mar 14 17:41:56 zmatt, hmm perhaps I should scan logs, perhaps steven100 can get information from that person. Seems he's not just per sea interested in the graphical aspect of the GPU but perhaps the processing aspect. I have been disappointed in the deplorable state of GPU support but that seems to be a TI thing. Mar 14 17:42:42 well I'm sure imgtec shares part of the blame Mar 14 17:47:37 are the drivers for the SGX530 closed source? so thats why they are not included in the standard linux os distribution? Mar 14 17:48:14 the kernel driver is open source but out-of-tree, the userspace libraries are closed source (albeit freely redistributable) Mar 14 17:48:48 the headaches mostly have to do with shared library version dependencies and such Mar 14 17:49:34 I think the problems may be solved with the very latest drivers but I don't know if anyone has attempted to get those to work yet Mar 14 17:50:29 I think the problems are also reduced when you're using something like yocto instead of debian, since then you can make sure everything is linked against the correct libraries to begin with Mar 14 17:51:08 debian's libs also have the tendency to pull in MESA stuff and/or X11 stuff even though neither is desirable Mar 14 17:57:33 (the sgx libs include a libgbm which conflicts with mesa's libgbm) Mar 15 01:23:51 Hello, if I would add a usb hub to a pocketbeagle, how much current and voltage can the pocketbeagle provide to the hub? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Mar 15 03:00:14 2021
