| 05:49.40 | Reepicheep12 | Hey folks, this isn't really arm specific but I thought one of you might know anyway. I'm trying to use a USB mouse as a remote (i.e. run a command when a button is pressed) on a headless install. I've tried this command: "while inotifywait -e modify /dev/input/mouse0; do command; done". It works on files but on that dev device. Any ideas how I can watch /dev/input/mouse0 for changes? Preferably without polling it every seco |
| 05:49.41 | Reepicheep12 | nd with a bash script (although even this I am unsure of how to do). Thanks. |
| 05:55.17 | Reepicheep12 | Figured it out, just need to cat mouse0 to a real file and watch that. |
| 06:00.52 | bsdfox | there has to be a better solution than that |
| 06:04.13 | Reepicheep12 | Very likely, can't find it though. |

| 06:11.07 | br- | Reepicheep12: the mouse will have its own device file in /dev/input somewhere. cat /that/file | while read -c 1 ; do [ "$REPLY" ] && cmd ; done may work better. device file mtimes don't change due to activity of the device |
| 06:11.24 | br- | (the files are merely portals to a non-filesystem space) |
| 06:12.21 | br- | Reepicheep12: i think perhaps LIRC will support what you want in a sensible way |
| 06:14.17 | br- | Reepicheep12: http://www.lirc.org/html/devinput.html :) |
| 06:18.04 | Turl | I wrote a simple daemon to bind input key events to commands launched some time ago |
| 06:18.29 | Turl | you can probably tweak it to do whatever you need https://github.com/turl/keybinder |

| 17:09.25 | tux4 | hi! I am still trying to get hdmi signal on a a10 android box(stv-301), I asked about this a few days ago. I compiled a new kernel (from sunxi-3.0) version 3.0.57. I got memory settings from android with a10-meminfo, and built a new u-boot. I enabled framebuffer following this guide http://linux-sunxi.org/Framebuffer But still didn't get signal on hdmi |

| 17:10.26 | tux4 | but with the same image/sdcard I got signal on hdmi with an eken t01 android tablet |

| 17:54.53 | leowt | read this |
| 17:55.05 | dagoo | leowt: thanks |
| 17:56.48 | leowt | it depends on how your controller board is designed, if it does not have a ttl converter onboard, you can make one |
| 17:57.00 | leowt | or buy a cheap usb - serial ttl |
| 17:57.42 | dagoo | leowt: okay, i have to do some electronics for now, or try to figure out how to flash the FT232BM chip on my cable to do so |
| 17:58.23 | leowt | dagoo: you cant flash the controllr |
| 17:58.49 | leowt | as the doc says |
| 17:59.12 | leowt | you can easly make one converter to put between your usb-rs232 and uart pinout of the board |
| 17:59.20 | leowt | or you buy a usb- serial ttl interface |
| 17:59.29 | leowt | they are ultra cheap |

| 22:20.13 | ssvb | techn: finally figured out how to make this freaking double buffering actually work with the mali blob - https://gist.github.com/4520736 |
| 22:23.37 | techn | how big is your window? |
| 22:23.45 | ssvb | this does not make any sense, in fact one of the buffers that got "destroyed" somehow happens to be rendered |
| 22:24.03 | ssvb | the window can have any size |
| 22:24.18 | techn | and it's always 300 offset? |
| 22:25.05 | ssvb | no, I just tried to assign unique offsets to the buffers to check which ones actually appear on screen |
| 22:26.01 | techn | oh.. mali could do copies internally |
| 22:26.47 | techn | https://github.com/linux-sunxi/linux-sunxi/blob/sunxi-3.0/drivers/gpu/mali/mali/arch-ca8-virtex820-m400-1/config.h |
| 22:27.46 | ssvb | once the dri2 buffer is created, mali remembers this data and it can't be changed |
| 22:28.12 | techn | there is some memory mappings.. 64MB fixed size memory? 32MB framebuffer? and 64 dynamic size memory? :/ |
| 22:30.44 | techn | Btw. I tried today to add .cpu_usage_adjust = -0x50000000, to that "Mali Sdram", it caused errors ;) |
| 22:30.58 | ssvb | don't know about the memory mappings, but it can render data to any part of the framebuffer, which is fine for me :) |
| 22:31.02 | techn | that setting is in those reference configurations |

| 22:34.31 | ssvb | and btw, there is some kind of race condition inside of the blob, because quickly switching between fullscreen/windowed mode (dri2 buffers are re-created at this time) seems to eventually end up with the messed setup |
| 22:35.02 | ssvb | techn: does vsync only work with in the scaler mode? |
| 22:35.41 | techn | ssvb: yes. I think so.. but if you create scalable layer it should activate it.. unless it's activated already |

| 22:37.47 | zoobab | indeed some USB ethernet dongles are to be thrown to the window |

| 22:45.55 | ssvb | techn: does it take much work to get r3p1 or r3p2 mali blobs up and running? I wonder if this dri2 gymnastics is still needed or maybe this could have been fixed in newer versions |

| 23:52.38 | libv | specing: use the android ndk |
| 23:53.05 | specing | libv: Why? |
| 23:53.36 | libv | for creating your static binaries for android |
| 23:53.57 | specing | doh, I have a ton of cross compilers for ARM |
| 23:54.11 | libv | you do not even need to make it static |
| 23:54.22 | specing | I know |
| 23:54.42 | specing | But if they are static there are less places they can break |
| 23:55.09 | specing | also I deleted my uclibc cross |
| 23:56.35 | penguin42 | wonders if there is a cpio for this rk3066 build anywhere or if I'm going to have to glue one together myselkf |

| 23:57.18 | specing | penguin42: there is one in the boot image ;D |
| 23:57.54 | penguin42 | specing: Yes, is that built into the kernel image or separate in the image? |
| 23:58.06 | specing | seperate |
| 23:58.23 | techn | ssvb: we have gles libs for r3p1 so you can experiment with those |
| 23:58.46 | penguin42 | specing: Ooh so I guess img_unpack might be able to pull it apart? |
| 23:59.27 | techn | but only for x11.. framebuffer and android libs missing.. so we cant move to that with "common" kernel |
