| 09:30.32 | stefan_n_ | hi |
| 09:30.38 | stefan_n_ | anyone there ? |
| 09:31.16 | stefan_n_ | im trying to reproduce a success i had in april ,because i cant get to run all the stuff i need on the current kernel |
| 09:32.57 | stefan_n_ | therefore i neet to checkout an older version |
| 09:33.17 | tmzt | you should be able to check out an earlier one, with tag or commit in git |
| 09:33.20 | tmzt | git/topgit |
| 09:33.29 | stefan_n_ | now im unsure if git works that way because all them branching makes thingss a little complicated |
| 09:33.33 | tmzt | you can also bisect to see what the problem is |
| 09:33.35 | stefan_n_ | the way i tried is |
| 09:33.41 | tmzt | it doesn, everything in git is like a hash |
| 09:33.51 | stefan_n_ | theres some things missing in the current stuff |
| 09:33.52 | tmzt | think of the branches as symlinks to that hash |
| 09:34.06 | stefan_n_ | i did it like this |
| 09:34.13 | stefan_n_ | -check out linux-kernel |
| 09:34.28 | stefan_n_ | -then clone openezx |
| 09:34.32 | stefan_n_ | x |
| 09:34.37 | stefan_n_ | then topgit |
| 09:34.43 | stefan_n_ | then i am on ezx current |
| 09:35.02 | stefan_n_ | now i wandered through the path and checked ezx.c for logs |
| 09:35.15 | stefan_n_ | and i located a verrsion i would like to test around april |
| 09:35.35 | stefan_n_ | then i got back to the root of openezx tree and made git checkout hash |
| 09:35.46 | stefan_n_ | that should do it i thought |
| 09:35.54 | stefan_n_ | but im not sure if thats enough |
| 09:36.00 | stefan_n_ | whats the role of topgit in this |
| 09:36.41 | stefan_n_ | is my local repository even able to handle all possible states that were in ezx curent |
| 09:36.43 | stefan_n_ | ? |

| 15:51.08 | stefan_n_ | im having problems with gen-blob on 2 a780 here |
| 15:51.35 | stefan_n_ | i dont really know the board revision, but different gen-blobs work differently on the 2 phones |
| 15:51.59 | stefan_n_ | do you thing this can depend on the mainboard revision ? |
| 15:53.27 | stefan_n_ | also i can boot a kernel for example via usb but not from the mmc-boot partition |
| 15:53.33 | stefan_n_ | thats all really strange |

| 16:56.19 | stefan_n_ | i have the suspicion, that something on the a780 is stateful |
| 16:56.41 | stefan_n_ | that means a kernel has a serios ooops |
| 16:57.04 | stefan_n_ | then i manage to boot some other thing via boot usb |
| 16:57.05 | stefan_n_ | and then afterwards the same kernel from before works like a charm |
| 16:57.14 | *** join/#openezx WyrM1 (n=wyrm@20158128143.user.veloxzone.com.br) |
| 16:57.15 | stefan_n_ | but i mean stateful / without the mmc |
| 16:57.26 | stefan_n_ | wyrm do you know anything about that ? |
| 16:57.41 | WyrM | hi |
| 16:57.43 | stefan_n_ | hi |
| 16:57.51 | WyrM | reads backlog |
| 16:58.04 | WyrM | can you repeat? |
| 16:58.12 | stefan_n_ | i mean |
| 16:58.27 | stefan_n_ | i had a kernel segfault at the start of booting |
| 16:58.31 | WyrM | I think I don't have full backlog :) |
| 16:58.37 | stefan_n_ | no rootfs yet |
| 16:58.54 | WyrM | a kernel panic at boot, ok. |
| 16:58.56 | stefan_n_ | then i booted an old kernel via boot_usb and gen-blob |
| 16:59.10 | stefan_n_ | after that the same thing from before works like a charm |
| 16:59.14 | stefan_n_ | i dont understand that |
| 16:59.21 | stefan_n_ | maybe something in flash ? |
| 16:59.32 | tmzt | or just random panic |
| 16:59.36 | WyrM | are you using gen-blob to boot the kernel that paniced? |
| 16:59.41 | stefan_n_ | yes |
| 16:59.45 | WyrM | UDC is problematic. |
| 16:59.50 | WyrM | sometimes it panics |
| 16:59.59 | stefan_n_ | its not like its sometimes |
| 17:00.04 | stefan_n_ | its like |
| 17:00.15 | WyrM | sometimes it seems to be working, but no data. |
| 17:00.15 | stefan_n_ | theres no way this kernel is starting for hours |
| 17:00.42 | stefan_n_ | and then once i try something different for example booting directly via usb (another kernel) |
| 17:00.50 | stefan_n_ | it works from then on |
| 17:00.53 | WyrM | ahh, there is also a chance that you getting a weird cmdline. |
| 17:01.02 | WyrM | that is causing the panic. |
| 17:01.08 | stefan_n_ | yes its the same cmdline as before |
| 17:01.13 | stefan_n_ | didnt change anything |
| 17:01.33 | stefan_n_ | its like some switch inside the phone is switched |
| 17:01.43 | stefan_n_ | and i had the same problem with another phone |
| 17:02.02 | WyrM | do you have a panic log? |
| 17:02.12 | stefan_n_ | i could maybe post the oops when i see it next, but the problem is i cannot read the full text cause its too much |
| 17:02.24 | stefan_n_ | how can i get one |
| 17:02.37 | WyrM | you can use boot_usb/gen-blob to dump RAM contents after the panic. |
| 17:02.53 | WyrM | the panic log will be on ram somewhere. :) |
| 17:02.53 | stefan_n_ | ill see what i can do |
| 17:03.23 | stefan_n_ | im not sure if im proficient enough to do that |
| 17:03.38 | WyrM | is gen-blob flashed on the phone? |
| 17:03.53 | stefan_n_ | yes |
| 17:04.01 | WyrM | ok, so after the panic.. |
| 17:05.57 | WyrM | 1. remove the battery |
| 17:05.58 | WyrM | 2. hold vol+, and reinsert the battery while holding it |
| 17:05.58 | WyrM | 3. use boot_usb read 0xa000000 31457280 dump |
| 17:05.58 | WyrM | 4. strings dump | less |
| 17:06.29 | WyrM | you are hacking a780, right? |
| 17:06.57 | stefan_n_ | coocool i will do that |
| 17:08.03 | stefan_n_ | yes im hacking a780 |
| 17:08.54 | stefan_n_ | got the camera working again |
| 17:09.01 | WyrM | good! |
| 17:09.21 | WyrM | on a780 dumping ram after a panic is a little trickier.. |
| 17:09.41 | stefan_n_ | but im beginning to think i had the exact same problem of phones not booting right before |
| 17:09.55 | WyrM | the above guide will not work, because the watchdog will turn the phone off before the download is finished... |
| 17:10.02 | stefan_n_ | but since this was mixed with developing its hard to detect |
| 17:10.07 | WyrM | instead, do... |
| 17:10.12 | stefan_n_ | ok . |
| 17:10.23 | stefan_n_ | bad watchdog ! bad watchdog ! |
| 17:10.40 | stefan_n_ | we need like a ezx.c into gen-blob |
| 17:10.42 | tmzt | can you increase the offset into the buffer? |
| 17:11.47 | WyrM | 1. remove the battery |
| 17:11.47 | WyrM | 2. hold Camera + JOG buttons (to enter the original bootloader) |
| 17:11.47 | WyrM | 3. boot_usb setflag usb |
| 17:11.47 | WyrM | 4. boot_usb gen-blob 0 (to send gen-blob to the original bootloader) |
| 17:11.48 | WyrM | 5. boot_usb read ...... |
| 17:11.48 | WyrM | 6. strings ...... |
| 17:12.07 | tmzt | ah, cool |
| 17:12.19 | stefan_n_ | ok the blue bootloader leaves the bp off right ? |
| 17:12.24 | stefan_n_ | and also the watchdog |
| 17:12.37 | WyrM | on a780, just inserting the battery (without holding the bootloader combo) will cause the original kernel on flash to boot. |
| 17:12.53 | WyrM | and it will overwrite most of RAM. :( |
| 17:13.01 | WyrM | so you will lose the panic log. |
| 17:13.22 | WyrM | exact, no watchdog If you enter the blue bootloader. |
| 17:13.38 | stefan_n_ | sure otherwise motorola could not flash anything ;) |
| 17:13.53 | stefan_n_ | stupid bad dog! |

| 17:33.40 | maxinbjohn | hi Fred |
| 17:35.07 | maxinbjohn | I have tried to use boot_usb for A1600.. however, it seems that I need a arm toolchain for it.. |
| 17:40.14 | ao2 | hi maxinbjohn |
| 17:40.30 | maxinbjohn | hi |
| 17:40.39 | ao2 | maxinbjohn, boot_usb must not be crosscompiled |
| 17:41.26 | maxinbjohn | yes, I understand... but in the readme for boot_usb, there should be a kernel which is configured for arm |
| 17:41.28 | maxinbjohn | I guess |
| 17:42.32 | ao2 | yes, and if you have telnet access to your phone you could get the original kernel |
| 17:43.07 | maxinbjohn | I still don't have telnet access to phone.. however, I do have EKonsole in A1600 |
| 17:43.38 | ao2 | maxinbjohn, playing with console command you should be able to get a map of your flash |
| 17:43.46 | ao2 | try "cat /proc/mtd" |
| 17:43.57 | maxinbjohn | ok... |
| 17:44.55 | ao2 | but anyways if you want just to see if boot_usb works we could try to send gen-blob to it |
| 17:45.06 | ao2 | I can send you a gen-blog binary |
| 17:45.38 | maxinbjohn | Oh that will be great... I am using Debian 5 in my machine.. |
| 17:45.50 | maxinbjohn | I have tried cat /proc/mtd ... |
| 17:46.10 | maxinbjohn | dev: size erasesize name |
| 17:46.44 | maxinbjohn | and info from mtd0 to mtd20 |
| 17:47.16 | ao2 | good, so you also know how your flash is mapped and we can use gen-blob to get stuff out from it |
| 17:47.39 | ao2 | if gen-blob works :) |
| 17:48.07 | maxinbjohn | mtd6 have BLOB as name |
| 17:48.23 | maxinbjohn | mtd7 shows KERNEL |
| 17:49.27 | ao2 | you could start a page about A1600 on wiki.openezx.org and pate this info there |
| 17:49.40 | ao2 | btw, here's a gen-blob binary http://people.openezx.org/ao2/tmp/gen-blob |
| 17:52.18 | maxinbjohn | is it a .txt file ? |
| 17:52.58 | ao2 | it's a binary for ARM |
| 17:53.03 | maxinbjohn | oh my mistake.. |
| 17:54.13 | ao2 | put your phoen in boot-loader mode and run "./boot-usb setflag usb" and then "./boot-usb gen-blob 0" |
| 17:54.59 | maxinbjohn | I couldn't build the boot-usb binary till now.. |
| 17:55.57 | maxinbjohn | can I use the default kernel source for debian 5 ? |
| 17:57.39 | ao2 | it should be quite recent, Lenny ships with 2.6.26, doesn't it? It could not be enough. |
| 17:58.10 | ao2 | get any recent tarball from kernel.org for building boot_usb |
| 17:58.25 | maxinbjohn | yes.. it is 2.6.26 |
| 17:58.33 | maxinbjohn | oh.. |
| 17:59.51 | ao2 | too old, boot_usb README tell >= 2.6.28-rcX |
| 17:59.51 | ao2 | tells |
| 17:59.57 | ao2 | so get the latest source from kernel.org |
| 18:01.02 | maxinbjohn | I will start the download now.. |
| 18:01.33 | ao2 | good, tell me when you're done, so I can assist you using it. Maybe you phone will not be recognized. |
| 18:01.50 | maxinbjohn | oh.. |
| 18:01.54 | ao2 | How does it show up in "lsusb" whrn it is in bootloader mode? |
| 18:02.35 | maxinbjohn | I haven't tried it yet.. |
| 18:02.55 | maxinbjohn | I have checked the mass strage mode in linux.. |
| 18:03.18 | maxinbjohn | it is taking at least 5 minutes to mount the /dev/sdc1 in /mnt |
| 18:03.41 | ao2 | if you tell me the usb id of the phone in bootloader mode I can check if boot_usb will recognize it |
| 18:04.06 | maxinbjohn | ok |
| 18:11.27 | maxinbjohn | 22b8 6023 |
| 18:11.56 | maxinbjohn | MOTOROLA PCS JUIX chipset flash |
| 18:13.58 | maxinbjohn | voice dial + start button to reach the bootloader mode |
| 18:20.30 | ao2 | ok, so it will be seen as a gen2 phone, no problems |
| 18:24.12 | maxinbjohn | ok.. |
| 18:24.45 | maxinbjohn | my connection is slow.. |
| 18:24.57 | maxinbjohn | kernel download is crawling.. |
| 18:25.55 | ao2 | I could send a boot_usb binary if you want to, I am on a x86 system here |
| 18:28.21 | ao2 | maxinbjohn, do you know if A1600 comes with 64MiB of RAM? |
| 18:28.56 | ao2 | all other ezx phones come with 48Mib |
| 18:30.35 | maxinbjohn | I didn't knew it.. I will confirm it.. let me check cat /proc/meminfo |
| 18:31.08 | maxinbjohn | Memtotal : 62560 KB |
| 18:31.41 | maxinbjohn | Total: 64061440 |
| 18:32.19 | ao2 | good |
| 18:32.25 | maxinbjohn | you are right.. |
| 18:32.38 | maxinbjohn | I never checked it before :) |
| 18:32.46 | ao2 | so they pimped it a bit, at least :) |
| 18:33.45 | maxinbjohn | Processor info (as per /proc/meminfo) |
| 18:34.08 | maxinbjohn | Intel XScale-PXA27x rev 7 (v5l) |
| 18:34.33 | maxinbjohn | BogoMIPS : 103.76 |
| 18:35.21 | ao2 | a dmesg would also be interesting to have, but please don't paste log texts here, use things like pastebin.com |
| 18:35.53 | maxinbjohn | oh ok.. |
| 18:35.57 | ao2 | maybe the dmesg binary is not in your rootfs, you may need a self-compiled one |
| 18:36.21 | maxinbjohn | yes.. it isn |
| 18:36.30 | maxinbjohn | t present in this phone.. |
| 18:36.52 | maxinbjohn | and till now , I don't have a toolchain to play with this A1600 |
| 18:37.38 | ao2 | they suggested this one on openezx-devel mailig list: http://ezxdev.org/qtopia/sdk/old/arm-linux-ezx.tar.bz2 |
| 18:38.18 | ao2 | but this will work only if you want to compile stuff to run on the original firware. For openezx you will need a different one |
| 18:38.42 | maxinbjohn | 56 MB... |
| 18:39.15 | ao2 | yes, sorry |
| 18:39.26 | maxinbjohn | I think I will start with this.. and gradually move to the openezx .. |
| 18:39.50 | maxinbjohn | is that ok ? |
| 18:40.25 | ao2 | well, we don't support 2.4 kernel at all, but you can do as you wish :), btw if all you want is to run dmesg I can upload a binary |
| 18:40.50 | maxinbjohn | oh.. that will be helpful.. thanks.. |

| 20:46.56 | stefan_schmidt | Anyone knows what is needed to boot a 2.4 kernel with gen-blob? |
| 20:47.43 | stefan_schmidt | I built one and it boots at least with the a1200 bootloader but not with gen-blob |
| 20:49.53 | stefan_schmidt | And while we are at it. Anyone tried a selfcompiled 2.4 kernel on an A1200? |
| 20:52.52 | stefan_n_ | ao2: im trying to extend an old usb-host 2.6.29 kernel with working camera drivers from april , do you think its possible to just copy some modules (pxa-camer , soc-camera , what else do i need ?) |
| 20:55.31 | ao2 | stefan_n_, If you have modules version enabled in one of those kernels I guess it won't work. You could try with "modprobe -f" tho, but I am not sure if it is going to work. |
| 20:56.36 | stefan_schmidt | hi ao2 |
| 20:56.50 | ao2 | stefan_schmidt, hi, never tried to send a 2.4 kernel to gen-blob via usb. |
| 20:56.57 | stefan_n_ | no i mean i want to copy the source files to do that |
| 20:57.16 | stefan_schmidt | ao2: same problem when booting it via menu.lst |
| 20:57.42 | stefan_schmidt | screen gets white, colors fade in and then reboots. |
| 20:58.00 | stefan_schmidt | Looks like machid to me, but IIRC 2.4 did not care about mach id |
| 20:58.17 | stefan_n_ | looks like param problem to me |
| 20:58.26 | stefan_n_ | try a menu.lst without params ? |
| 20:58.35 | ao2 | stefan_schmidt, just tried from menu and it works on a780 (with original kernel) |
| 20:58.56 | stefan_schmidt | stefan_n_: The 2.4 entyr has no params :( |
| 20:59.01 | stefan_schmidt | ao2: hmm |
| 20:59.26 | stefan_schmidt | ao2: It's strange as I'm able to boot into the selfompiled one with mbm |
| 20:59.43 | stefan_schmidt | But the system is not working as it was booted in flash mode |
| 20:59.53 | stefan_n_ | i can do that |
| 21:00.15 | stefan_schmidt | stefan_n_: Do what? |
| 21:00.17 | stefan_n_ | stefan_schmidt i can boot a motorola 2.4 kernel from the menu |
| 21:00.30 | stefan_n_ | i can check |
| 21:00.42 | stefan_schmidt | I thought I can do that as well, but it fails here |
| 21:00.53 | stefan_schmidt | maybe just a littler detail |
| 21:01.15 | stefan_n_ | no params |
| 21:01.15 | ao2 | stefan_n_, about camera code on older kernel, the very latest code in ezx.c depends on some newer "soc-camera as platform device" stuff, but the older version should work, we had it in 2.6.29, right? |
| 21:01.49 | stefan_schmidt | A more general question would be if anybody was able to replace the kernel on an A1200 and keep a fully running system. Are the sources complete for this? |
| 21:01.52 | ao2 | stefan_n_, is the file called /boot/default ? |
| 21:02.01 | ao2 | I don't remember if that matter |
| 21:02.05 | ao2 | matters |
| 21:02.09 | stefan_schmidt | ao2: no |
| 21:02.13 | stefan_schmidt | Can try it |
| 21:02.15 | stefan_n_ | no called a780-2.4 |
| 21:02.27 | stefan_n_ | its a menu entry |
| 21:02.35 | stefan_n_ | the 1740 is set also |
| 21:02.42 | stefan_schmidt | I thought default is only needed if you have no kernel in flash and gen-blob pick it up by deafult on sd |
| 21:02.44 | stefan_n_ | i dont know if thats needed |
| 21:02.46 | ao2 | ah, ok, so /boot/default is the name used to boot is skipping the menu |
| 21:02.58 | stefan_schmidt | stefan_n_: mach id should not be needed in 2.4 |
| 21:03.10 | stefan_schmidt | ao2: that's my understanding of it |
| 21:03.46 | stefan_schmidt | I needed at least the ptrace include fix to get the kernel build. I wonder if moto tries to compile the code at all :( |
| 21:03.53 | stefan_n_ | ao2: i have it working in a 30 kernel and the usb host thing i have is 29 rc2 |
| 21:04.10 | stefan_n_ | and i want do try to use the camera stuff in the old one |
| 21:04.30 | stefan_n_ | so i need to port the ezx camera stuff too, then the pxa-camera and soc-camera module ? |
| 21:04.40 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: ping |
| 21:04.41 | ao2 | and mt9m111.c |
| 21:05.02 | ao2 | stefan_schmidt, try copying these three |
| 21:05.07 | ao2 | sorry stefan_n_ |
| 21:05.24 | stefan_n_ | thanks ao2 |
| 21:05.29 | stefan_schmidt | hmm, do I need the zero padding for the kernel on the mmc? |
| 21:06.01 | stefan_n_ | ah stefanschmidt that could be the problem, i have a kernel from wyrm 2.4 |
| 21:06.04 | stefan_n_ | that works |
| 21:06.11 | stefan_n_ | maybe theres some magic involved |
| 21:06.52 | ao2 | stefan_schmidt, there were also something about mbm initializing framebuffer IIRC |
| 21:07.27 | stefan_schmidt | ao2: yes, it does the init and sets the first static picture. When the kernel takes over it skips init |
| 21:08.07 | stefan_schmidt | It looks ugly when booting the 2.4 from mbm, but at least the system comes up |
| 21:08.33 | stefan_n_ | also i found out the camera does not work in the 2.4 kernel anymore |
| 21:08.37 | WyrM | hi |
| 21:08.42 | stefan_schmidt | ao2: You mean the kernel crashes and reboots because the fb is not init? |
| 21:08.48 | stefan_schmidt | ah, hi WyrM |
| 21:09.05 | WyrM | stefan_schmidt: iirc, the fb init thing is for gen2 only. |
| 21:09.13 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: I have soem questions here. Do you have a minute? |
| 21:09.20 | WyrM | a1200 display gets weird if gen-blob touches the FB. |
| 21:09.21 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: yup, only for gen2, with mbm |
| 21:09.59 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: that would not be a problem. The problem is that the kernel gets unpacked, screen gets white, colors fade in and it reboots |
| 21:10.13 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: Have you ever run a selfcompiled 2.4 on your a1200? |
| 21:10.18 | WyrM | hum... |
| 21:10.23 | stefan_schmidt | I mean as a full replacement |
| 21:10.24 | WyrM | it may be a lot of stuff.. :( |
| 21:10.43 | WyrM | but most probably is because the cmdline was overwritten. |
| 21:10.51 | WyrM | are you sending the kernel with boot_usb? |
| 21:10.55 | WyrM | or on gen-blob menu? |
| 21:11.06 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: Tried both, same effect |
| 21:11.15 | stefan_schmidt | title Motorola 2.4 |
| 21:11.15 | stefan_schmidt | kernel /boot/self |
| 21:11.24 | stefan_schmidt | That's all in menu.lst for it |
| 21:11.36 | stefan_schmidt | I tried boot_usb self 0 and without mach id |
| 21:12.13 | WyrM | boot_usb <image> 0 should work. |
| 21:12.20 | WyrM | except for the FB thing. |
| 21:12.39 | WyrM | have you booting the original kernel? |
| 21:12.55 | stefan_schmidt | it gets crazy with mbm as well. After the first screen blank it is correct again |
| 21:13.04 | WyrM | not the one you compiled, just to eliminate your build causing the panic? |
| 21:13.23 | stefan_schmidt | It tries to boot the original one everytime it reboots |
| 21:13.34 | WyrM | I mean.. |
| 21:13.40 | WyrM | the original kernel, with boot_usb |
| 21:13.50 | stefan_schmidt | no, I can try this. Good point |
| 21:14.11 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: Do I need the zero padding for the 2.4? |
| 21:14.13 | WyrM | the screen should get weird, but as you said, after some time it gets back to normal :) |
| 21:14.19 | stefan_schmidt | I tested with and without, no effect |
| 21:14.25 | WyrM | with boot_usb, no padding is needed. |
| 21:14.34 | WyrM | you have to _remove_ the padding :) |
| 21:14.51 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: only for the one from flash, right? |
| 21:15.01 | WyrM | also with gen-blob menu, remove the padding. |
| 21:15.03 | WyrM | no. |
| 21:15.07 | WyrM | not even on flash. |
| 21:15.21 | WyrM | only gen-blob needs the padding (because MBM loads gen-blob). |
| 21:15.35 | WyrM | kernels that gen-blob load, can't be padded. |
| 21:15.52 | stefan_schmidt | ok |
| 21:16.16 | stefan_schmidt | I'll try to read the original kernel now and try with that one to rule out some problems |
| 21:16.44 | WyrM | building the motorola source is tricky.. |
| 21:16.59 | WyrM | I never managed to build a 100% working kernel. |
| 21:17.11 | stefan_schmidt | that's bad news |
| 21:17.29 | WyrM | I know it is possible, Ilya did this for a1200, E2 and E6 |
| 21:17.40 | stefan_schmidt | I may have a customer here that like to have a small modification only |
| 21:17.42 | WyrM | I tried for a1200 and a780, always failed. :) |
| 21:17.50 | stefan_schmidt | ah, ilya did |
| 21:17.57 | stefan_schmidt | That's good news then :) |
| 21:18.21 | stefan_schmidt | At leats the a1200 source tree was better then the older ones |
| 21:18.25 | WyrM | OOI, what mod he wants? |
| 21:18.36 | stefan_schmidt | I only needed one patch to build it so far |
| 21:19.07 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: An option to switch emu between usb and uart |
| 21:19.34 | stefan_schmidt | I verified with a 2.6 that EOC still works fine as uart. |
| 21:20.06 | WyrM | Hum... I think that there is no need for a kernel mod for this... :) |
| 21:20.20 | stefan_schmidt | And now I need to see if it is realistic to build an kernel that offers all the funstions like the original one, but also a small proc interface for switching |
| 21:20.30 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: ? |
| 21:20.40 | WyrM | You will need to hack userspace, so it won't open the port, and write the software that will talk on the UART. |
| 21:20.43 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: Did moto offer an interface for this? |
| 21:21.07 | stefan_schmidt | WyrM: you have to reconfigure the gpios between usbp2 and uart |
| 21:21.15 | WyrM | You just need an extra resistor on the voltage leveler circuit. |
| 21:21.50 | WyrM | you want console on the uart? |
| 21:21.54 | stefan_schmidt | yes |
| 21:22.16 | stefan_schmidt | err, moment |
| 21:22.17 | WyrM | So, kernel part should be just a change on cmdline on flash. |
| 21:22.21 | WyrM | to enable the console. |
| 21:22.50 | WyrM | about the resistor to enable the uart mode, let me search the value... :) |
| 21:22.54 | stefan_schmidt | It triggers on the resistor to change to uart mode? |
| 21:23.02 | WyrM | The software can switch to UART automatically. |
| 21:23.12 | stefan_schmidt | uh, that is new to me. |
| 21:23.19 | stefan_schmidt | But good news. :) |
| 21:23.29 | WyrM | its on wiki.openezx.org since 2007 ;) |
