| 10:47.08 | Gumboot | A lot of people have asked about availability. |
| 10:47.35 | Gumboot | And there's CAN on A10? |
| 10:49.44 | pidpawel | there is but we have no idea how to make it work because of lack of documentation |
| 10:51.02 | Gumboot | Also, the topmost comments on the buy page are grossly out of date and misleading. |
| 10:51.35 | Gumboot | pidpawel: Is the base address of the peripheral known? |
| 10:53.14 | pidpawel | Gumboot: yes, it is. |
| 10:53.40 | Gumboot | And it doesn't match the profile of any already-known CAN controller? OR it just hasn't been tested? |
| 10:54.01 | pidpawel | probably hasnt tested |
| 11:00.27 | mnemoc | if someone manages to get documentation regarding CEC and CAN controller in A10 from allwiner we can write the corresponding drivers |
| 11:02.01 | RaYmAn | mnemoc: or even a binary .o/.ko for it =P |
| 11:02.43 | mnemoc | RaYmAn: afaik they don't have a linux driver at all |
| 11:05.55 | Gumboot | You don't necessarily need documentation for everything to support it. |
| 11:06.59 | mnemoc | Gumboot: we only know the base address of the register and the pins that support the feature |
| 11:07.09 | mnemoc | Gumboot: it's impossible to write anything with that info |
| 11:07.18 | *** join/#cubieboard h0cin (~h0cin@unaffiliated/h0cin) |
| 11:07.38 | Gumboot | Well, if somebody were actually interested, that's a pretty good start, actually. |
| 11:07.54 | mnemoc | better than nothing, sure. |
| 11:08.13 | Gumboot | Start by dumping all the registers in that region, and try mapping them to sensible states for all known CAN controllers, first. |
| 11:08.50 | Gumboot | For each of those candidates, give it a bit of a tickle and see if anything comes out on the pins. |
| 11:09.06 | mnemoc | Gumboot: thank you for volunteering :) |
| 11:09.15 | Gumboot | Thing is, I'm not interested. |
| 11:09.59 | Gumboot | It's also possible that it never got a kernel module because it doesn't actually work. |
| 11:10.18 | Gumboot | But the other possibility is that it's simply not considered a feature for the market from which the documentation was leaked. |
| 11:10.29 | mnemoc | the a10 sodimm module from bdd exposes all pins, hope it attracts more people interested in getting dirty |
| 11:10.29 | Gumboot | How many people want CAN in their tablets? |
| 11:10.57 | mnemoc | they killed SATA on the A10S even when it's aimed at HTPCs |

| 11:11.10 | RaYmAn | CEC seems more relevant to me =P |
| 11:11.39 | mnemoc | both are amazing features |
| 11:11.40 | Gumboot | Is the controller for that going to be tighly coupled with a known component? |
| 11:12.28 | RaYmAn | mnemoc: I'm honestly not even sure what CAN is used for in practice |
| 11:12.43 | Gumboot | Automotive, primarily. |
| 11:13.10 | mnemoc | also on DIN rail based industrial envs |
| 11:14.27 | mnemoc | spi is too little, rs485 is too much. can is perfect :) |
| 11:16.07 | RaYmAn | I guess allwinner doesn't have a lot of industrial customers |
| 11:16.12 | RaYmAn | or automotive. |
| 11:16.45 | RaYmAn | I suspect the only reason CEC isn't implemented is because none of the OEM's buying their chips knows what it is |
| 11:16.57 | mnemoc | the sodimm module from that canadian guy might change that |
| 11:17.26 | RaYmAn | All devices with HDMI ought to support cec |
| 11:17.34 | mnemoc | yes |
| 11:17.48 | RaYmAn | I was surprised that e.g. Wii U lacks it entirely |
| 11:18.00 | RaYmAn | while PS3 has had awesome support for it since day 1 pretty much |
| 11:18.17 | Gumboot | Nintendo don't make TVs. |
| 11:18.55 | Gumboot | Does CEC actually work across vendors? |
| 11:19.11 | RaYmAn | I don't get the impression that sony departments actually talk together, ever |
| 11:19.17 | RaYmAn | mostly, yes |
| 11:19.25 | RaYmAn | I have a samsung tv and a ps3 that works well together |
| 11:19.42 | RaYmAn | there are some protocol differences across tvs |
| 11:20.16 | RaYmAn | with stuff like libcec, its' not really an issue |
| 11:20.34 | RaYmAn | like, tegra3 exposes cec through a /dev node that just lets you read/write to the bus pretty much |
| 11:20.41 | RaYmAn | the protocol itself is implemented in userspace |
| 11:27.01 | Gumboot | None of the errata are switched on in the default kernel config. |

| 12:47.54 | Gumboot | I like stuff in the proper order, with the oldest things at the top -- like my bank statements -- but as that page is right now the things that are nearest to the information are the oldest comments. |

| 13:10.40 | Gumboot | Is there a current limit on USB's +5V rail, or does it go straight through to the DC input? |
| 13:11.27 | BigWhoop | usb ports are limited to 500 mA from the controller. And only after a handshake. |
| 13:11.52 | Gumboot | Well that's what an old version of the spec says. Is that how it's wired? |
| 13:12.37 | Gumboot | New revisions allow for up to 1.5A, I think. |
| 13:12.41 | Gumboot | And talk about up to 5A. |

| 13:15.47 | Gumboot | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB#Charging_ports_and_accessory_charging_adapters |
| 13:15.52 | Gumboot | They're "charging ports". |
| 13:16.12 | Gumboot | What does cubieboard implement? |
| 13:16.38 | Gumboot | When I stuck a USB hard drive in there I half expected it to crash, but it didn't. It simply failed to register the device. This may point to negotiation. |
| 13:16.48 | BigWhoop | a few motherboards are working with that....but only if a apple device is connected. |

| 13:36.13 | Gumboot | U10 and U11 appear to be inline with the USB power outputs. |

HDMI is DVI compatible but you need recent kernel to use most DVI screens. The pre-installed android kernel is configured for 720p digital TV mode. |
