**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Nov 29 02:59:56 2005 Nov 29 10:01:07 <[g2]> lennert continues to roll Nov 29 10:01:17 <[g2]> ep1220 hey Nov 29 10:01:30 ~whalebomb [g2] Nov 29 10:01:32 * purl throws an explosive whale at [g2] and hides Nov 29 10:01:38 <[g2]> heh Nov 29 10:01:50 <[g2]> prpplague do you do much JTAG debugging ? Nov 29 10:02:30 [g2]: some, mostly limited to some reverse engineering and usually just some sdram init problems during initial board bring up Nov 29 10:02:41 [g2]: been sorta hacking jtager Nov 29 10:04:09 [g2]: not enough hours in the day to learn everything i need Nov 29 10:06:55 <[g2]> you probably have an abatron or something similar Nov 29 10:07:35 [g2]: i have a laugterbach, but i don't care for it Nov 29 10:07:51 [g2]: i try to use/improve opensource tools when i can Nov 29 10:08:02 i've been thinking about getting a bdi Nov 29 10:08:04 but..... Nov 29 10:08:08 $$$$ Nov 29 10:08:19 how much is it, actually? Nov 29 10:09:51 bullet: depending on where you buy its about $2500.00USD Nov 29 10:10:04 ugh Nov 29 10:11:07 that's cheap Nov 29 10:11:16 here it's the same in euros Nov 29 10:11:58 <[g2]> so we should all buy ep1220's little device and start hacking on the JTAG debugging Nov 29 10:12:22 <[g2]> and then move over to the FPGA when lennert has the whole Xilinx worked out Nov 29 10:12:43 <[g2]> that'll be in about 5 more minutes :) Nov 29 10:13:35 [g2]: ideally, your debugging software is independent from the underlying jtag hardware Nov 29 10:15:30 i received an email from amontec today - laurent sent me a new config for their chameleon, based on my epp_jtag - if everything works, this should allow >50kb/s arm7/9 download speed :) Nov 29 10:17:38 <[g2]> cool Nov 29 10:17:45 [g2]: i'm pulling another all-nighter but i don't think i'll get there just yet, and i don't think it'll help in achieving that goal :) Nov 29 10:18:16 <[g2]> lennert heh Nov 29 10:18:37 vmaster: sounds nice Nov 29 10:18:59 <[g2]> lennert I would like to have the ability to break in with JTAG Nov 29 10:19:15 <[g2]> and take control of the processor and see what it's doing Nov 29 10:20:45 * [g2] runs out for some lunch Nov 29 10:21:42 [g2]: on the v2pro, you mean? or any ole' arm cpu? Nov 29 10:22:34 mhh, isn't g2 into mips debugging? Nov 29 10:22:38 ah, no Nov 29 10:22:40 that was key2 Nov 29 10:27:14 [g2] does arm stuff Nov 29 10:27:43 the number one thing jtag debugging helps me with is board bringups, sdram inits always are an issue when bringing up new hardware Nov 29 14:41:27 <[g2]> vmaster mips was before ARM :) Nov 29 14:41:29 <[g2]> wrt54g Nov 29 14:42:55 ah, ok - and what ARMs? Nov 29 14:44:54 <[g2]> XScale and a little ARM9 Nov 29 14:45:07 <[g2]> I've got some Cirrus EP930x boards **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Nov 30 02:59:56 2005
