**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu May 24 02:59:58 2012 May 24 06:30:56 can I able to knew .... why in ARM based embedded system we have to give hardcoded LCD Screen resolution parameters? why the drivers detects the possible screen resolution supported by an LCD ? May 24 06:35:37 snkt: you don't "have to" anything. but many displays have no resolution reporting. May 24 06:35:53 especially smaller/simpler ones May 24 06:48:10 Zagor, this is the struct from which it take the resolution.... http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1649122 May 24 06:48:29 Zagor, but if I have to set parameters for different resolution (for e.g. 1024x768) ... how should I calculate this parameter? May 24 06:50:35 snkt, hi.....was it not you asking about root-nfs lately ? May 24 06:51:10 lautriv, ya... that has been solved... May 24 06:51:21 ok May 24 06:51:28 lautriv, I have problem in my dm9000 drivers.... May 24 06:52:08 lautriv, now I m working on Screen resolution May 24 06:52:21 i see May 24 07:02:51 lautriv, actually according to datasheet my ARM based SOC support upto 1280x1024 ... but in my kernel it is hardcoded to 800x480.... May 24 07:03:59 snkt, the SoC does, what about the display itself ? May 24 07:06:37 lautriv, with WindowsCE BSP it gives support for 8 different resolution... May 24 07:06:50 lautriv, I m working on linux for the same May 24 07:08:00 snkt, i don't care about winblows but is there a resultion higher than 800 x 480 which works on this display ? May 24 07:08:36 lautriv, my LCD monitor can support upto 1280x1024... May 24 07:09:40 lautriv, right now my 1st task is to give support with atleast for 1024x768... right now I m not looking for multiple resolution.. May 24 07:10:02 lautriv, have hardcoded screen resolution define in my linux kernel .... this is my actually lcd.c file placed in arch/arm/mach-cl7700/lcd.c .... http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1649123 May 24 07:10:39 lautriv, I dont knw the calculation ... May 24 07:12:20 hi there May 24 07:12:25 anyone here? May 24 07:13:46 snkt, use one of thoes online-modeline-generators ? i found some in the past with detailed information but not needed since ages. May 24 07:14:37 carlobruno, actually anyone == (143 users + you) May 24 07:14:50 yes sure May 24 07:14:51 :) May 24 07:15:12 i got some problem with my php thumb in wordpress May 24 07:15:23 lautriv, whats that? online-modeline-generators??? May 24 07:16:45 snkt, there are some sites, where you enter known data like size/pixelclock and then calculate details about porch and friends. May 24 07:20:41 lautriv, but how can I calculate horizontal front,back, sync as well as vertical f,b,s ...' May 24 07:21:15 good morning May 24 07:22:12 lautriv, if I use this calculator http://www.arachnoid.com/modelines/index.html .... how can I make changes in my current structure ... http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1649122 May 24 07:24:07 snkt what about something like .width = &selectedwidth ? May 24 07:25:23 lautriv, 1024 May 24 07:25:36 lautriv, .height = 768 May 24 07:31:12 snkt , feed the selection from a struct or predifened addresses, you can't switch a framebuffer on the fly so you have to do something like modprobe myframebuffer mode=4 where " if mode = 4 --> selectedwidth = 1024 and .width = &selectedwidth. same for all other params. May 24 07:34:26 lautriv, ok... but right now will you help me to make changes in struct http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1649122 ..... for 1024x768.... defaultly the structure is defined for 800x480 May 24 07:37:08 hi all May 24 07:37:38 I am bit confused the usage of OVERRIDE with PREFERRED_VERSION .... can we use OVERRIDES with PREFERRED_VERSION? May 24 07:38:20 like PREFERRED_VERSION_gzip-native_i686 ? May 24 07:38:41 or this is illegal May 24 07:39:14 snkt, missing some details, can you even change the .clkgen0 and if so, how much without further damage ( remember a higher res will eat more batt and produce more heat ) May 24 07:41:34 lautriv, i have no idea about that ;( May 24 07:46:49 hello. anyone can say what to do here? http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=nauZ48WQ May 24 07:47:56 ericben, not able to open your pastebin.. displaying ... "Access to this site has been blocked as per Court Orders" May 24 07:48:10 sorry ericben May 24 07:48:25 ericbutters, not able to open your pastebin.. displaying ... "Access to this site has been blocked as per Court Orders" May 24 07:48:27 snkt, see the basic calculation depends on the pixelclock, your 800x480 has .clkgen0->.clk_divider=6 where a res of 1024x768 would need approx. (not exactly) the double pixelclock. this would lead to .clkgen0->.clk_divider=3 or (if in range) the half refresh-rate on the same pixelclock. even more important is the possible range on this (and others) monitors capabilities. you may compare usual settings from e.g. vesafb. May 24 07:50:21 lautriv, i will just try as a trial and error ... what about other parameters? May 24 07:50:56 ericbutters, should not happen but if you rm ./var/cache before, it should do the trick. May 24 07:55:07 snkt, all parameters depend on that, you may imagine producing a picture is a long chain of rows and colums where some parameters are directly visible ( dots in a horizontal row ) and some aren't ( values around porch/delay ) which take affect on your border. May 24 07:58:58 snkt, before you try and error, which may cause a permanent damage i would suggest to get some impressions on well known framebuffers like vga and vesa afaik w100 is also well done. May 24 08:00:03 lautriv, sorry ....I didn't get you? May 24 08:01:53 snkt, the resolution of 1024x768 is quite usual and there are also somewhere tables for modes ( get the thing working on any standard display ) other framebuffers like the mentioned already contain your info. May 24 08:03:39 snkt, your only missing part is the OWN pixelclock which results from .clkgen0/n May 24 08:07:47 lautriv, it has work with .clk_divider=3 .... May 24 08:09:10 snkt, divider=3 is close but not exact, minor changes are needed but those may be catched by the monitors sync. May 24 08:11:15 lautriv, but how such calculations are made....? where can I get more information? May 24 08:16:54 snkt, the basics are not related to a computer but technicans who produce/repair monitor/television. if you aren't comfortable HOW the picture get's created there might be something on wikipedia. let me give you an example : my suggested devider=3 is a result of ( 1024x768 ) / ( 800 x 480 ) = 2,048 where divider=6/2,048 ~3. you have to take into account a higher pixelclock will not only produce more pixel/s but also faster backtrace which has to May 24 08:16:54 be adjusted otherwise your output may skew. May 24 08:22:14 lautriv, thanks a lot.... my output is not skew... totally perfect display... May 24 08:23:31 snkt, maybe the monitor fixes xome minor issues and another would not buthowever, you probably won't change this monitor ;) May 24 08:26:37 snkt, more important, have an eye on the Soc temperature. May 24 08:39:02 ericbutters, removing symlink before worked ? May 24 08:45:34 lautriv, i will try later. right know i am in a meeting.. thx so far. i report back when tested ;) May 24 09:20:51 lautriv, how can I check Soc Temp.? May 24 09:21:20 lautriv, also if have to do it for all monitors how can I overcome with thi? May 24 09:32:01 why is the eglibc-2.14 branch used for cross-localedef-native_2.15? May 24 09:39:13 snkt, i don't know this one but many chips these days have a sensor buid-in and for other monitors you will probably have no issues on LCD but (seldom used these days ) CRT. this is because a LCD does not really trace the screen by input. May 24 09:47:04 lautriv, it is possible to take screen resolutuion from LCD monitor .... as we usaully see in x86 machine....? May 24 09:48:48 does your LCD speak edid? May 24 09:49:16 snkt, IF your video-connector has pins for ddc, which results in some edid. May 24 09:49:36 dm8tbr, its a standard Samsung LCD monitor... May 24 09:49:47 dm8tbr, his monitor does, question is if the embedded can read it ;) May 24 09:50:12 right lautriv ;) May 24 09:50:14 :) May 24 09:52:20 I'd refer to the documentation of the embedded device for this May 24 09:56:32 snkt, are you a bit comfortable with hardware ( using a multimeter) ? May 24 09:57:28 lautriv, with multimeter .. ya I m... May 24 09:57:37 lautriv, I have it May 24 09:58:18 snkt, if the docu lacks on detail you may wiki a standard-VGA pinout and find the matching pin ( maybe GPIO) May 24 09:58:43 which board is this anyway? May 24 09:59:12 dm8tbr, its a SPICA with Corelogic CLG7700 Soc May 24 10:00:38 does anyone know details about the armhf port ? May 24 10:02:49 my guess would be that it doesn't do EDID and thus the resolutions are hardcoded May 24 10:03:31 nvm, found it. May 24 10:06:26 dm8tbr, it does May 24 10:30:21 can some one help on how to cross compile a package which uses cmake May 24 10:42:58 I have some externally generated .ipkg files that I want to include in my OE build into the generated filesystem image. Howto? May 24 10:46:23 I am getting this error while compiling openssl , can some one tell me wht is cusing it to happen May 24 10:46:25 sh: opkg-build: command not found May 24 10:46:25 ERROR: TaskFailed event exception, aborting May 24 10:46:40 NOTE: Task failed: opkg-build execution failed May 24 10:46:40 NOTE: package openssl-1.0.0d-r15.0: task do_package_write_ipk: Failed May 24 10:46:40 ERROR: TaskFailed event exception, aborting May 24 10:49:14 erwt, you may set -x that script to get details about the missing command. May 24 10:51:10 lautriv, there is no such option in bitbake May 24 10:55:23 erwt, "sh:" points to /bin/sh was used , "opkg-build : command not found" points to a missing script/bin/whatever they call "opkg-build" but i assume you produced already some packages so either you forgot to source your env or there is a typo in the previous script. May 24 11:00:43 To override the interfaces file from netbase it should be enough to add a netbase_4.47.bbappend and netbase-4.47/interfaces to my layer and set FILESEXTRAPATHS := "${THISDIR}/${PN}" in the .bbappend? May 24 11:00:52 I just can't make this do what I want.. May 24 11:14:13 Corrected it to FILESEXTRAPATHS := "${THISDIR}/${PN}-{PV}", log.do_unpack shows that it doesn't want to fetch any files from my layer. May 24 12:25:28 morning all May 24 12:50:21 pb_, hehe, you're used to sleep long ;) May 24 13:21:37 does someone spot why my netbase-bbappend does not work: http://pastebin.com/gU0qwC8r? other bbappends I've made in a similar way work, but this one refuses to cooperate. May 24 13:24:01 PRINC = "1" ? May 24 13:24:11 now the syntax changed May 24 13:25:14 use that instead: May 24 13:25:17 PRINC := "${@int(PRINC) + 1}" May 24 13:28:38 denisATeukrea: done May 24 13:28:53 but it doesn't fix the problem May 24 13:29:12 ok May 24 13:29:15 what the problem is? May 24 13:29:52 because does not work is kind of vague May 24 13:30:26 denisATeukrea: ah, you joined after my first comments. May 24 13:30:31 ok May 24 13:31:03 it doesn't grab the interfaces file from my layer, but from where the .bb resides May 24 13:32:04 then ajust FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/${PN}:" or the dir to match that May 24 13:32:49 can you do a find in the dir where the bbappend resides May 24 13:46:52 denisATeukrea: I've been staring hard at this for a while now. Think there is something odd on my system, so I've deleted the builddir and will try again tomorrow May 24 13:47:11 but now, kindergarten pickup. May 24 13:47:55 ok May 24 14:45:07 I have some externally generated .ipkg files that I want to include in my OE build into the generated filesystem image. Howto? May 24 18:52:08 ping khem May 24 19:56:51 Do someone know if there're any layer with EULA questioning before the fetching of files? May 24 20:23:55 hi khem May 24 22:19:29 Do someone know if there're any layer with EULA questioning before the fetching of files? May 24 23:13:47 heh, cool, i'm surprised this was this easy. just hacked bitbake into calling json.loads() on non-quoted values for variables, then tweaked datanode to let python use the + operator for concatenation May 24 23:13:55 FOO = 5 .. FOO +=3 .. FOO is 8 May 24 23:13:59 nifty. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri May 25 02:59:59 2012
