Typo in Update: FOSDEM 2018, Shakti Project Tape-out Nearly Done, 2.7.5 EOMA68-A20 PCBs
by Pablo Rath 05 Feb '18

05 Feb '18

Hi, in the latest update from Februar 1st there is an obvious typo in the markup resulting in one link rendered wrong. It starts with "The [Shakti Team]]" and I think it is one closing square bracket too much. Thank you, Luke for the interesting update and good luck with all the talks and FOSDEM. On Liberapay we made you the second highest funded individual person! :) kind regards Pablo

I find this all strange, but good

2.5 watts for a quad core processor or even octacore... That sounds just plain absurd. But yeah, with less crap inside of it... it makes some sense I suppose. Shakti processors are going to be awesome. By the way Luke, I look forward to seeing your devices, and I wish you the best. You are now receiving it least for now, 94 euros a week. Pretty awesome right? And that doesn't even begin to cover the sheer awesomeness of 250k you will be getting right? I am glad someone is helping you in a way that I only dream of helping you. Your products will one day be super awesome. Mostly because of the Shakti. But even now they intrigue me. :)

Re: [Arm-netbook] Arm Netbook: I just was reading some old logs,

Ultimately there are just unidentified broken drivers and it would just take an unpredictable amount of effort to even determine which ones. All necessary drivers and firmware are present, only some function and/or variable names were likely changed somewhere down the line which weren't properly updated for all drivers. I'm sure this type of thing is fairly common. Disclaimer: not a programmer; likely very incorrect. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton <lkcl(a)lkcl.net> Date: Wed, 8 Mar 2017 05:45:44 +0000 Subject: Re: [Arm-netbook] systemd and kernel: 3.4, mainline To: Linux on small ARM machines <arm-netbook(a)lists.phcomp.co.uk> On Wed, Mar 8, 2017 at 5:33 AM, Stefan Monnier <monnier(a)iro.umontreal.ca> wrote: >> And now I hear that A20 card will be shipped with kernel 3.4.

And there is > (slow) progress, so its future isn't too bleak. yeahhh, it's the lack of desktop support that's the main concern. i'd like to be able to say that it will be possible to fund the mainlining support but it isn't, right now. also, as i mentioned earlier, the A20's running out of time. i'm going to have to ship with only an older toshipba 1MB or even just a 128kb NAND flash because it's getting harder and harder to find so-called "legacy" NAND flash ICs in TSSOP packaging that the A20's brain-dead boot ROM recognises. so now you may gain some understanding why the RK3288 board is so important. (a) it's got full mainline support (b) it's just as libre as the A20 Card (c) it has mass-volume support (d) it's had a chromebook and more made around it (e) it's been around long enough to have all the problems ironed out (f) the technical reference manuals are now online (g) it's possible to get Reference Designs for $USD 25. that DOES NOT mean that the A20 board is not important: it is critical at this early phase. l. _______________________________________________ arm-netbook mailing list arm-netbook(a)lists.phcomp.co.uk http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to arm-netbook(a)files.phcomp.co.uk

Arm Netbook: I just was reading some old logs,
by zap 03 Feb '18

03 Feb '18

and I wondered, whenever the eoma68 standard libre laptop is released, I recall you saying the 4.9 kernel doesn't give 100% functionality, I just wondered two things: One, how much % of functionality would work, and how much wouldn't work Two, could it be loaded temporarily until I add a new kernel (if I went down the devuan route especially) I only ask for this info because of curiosity. That's all. I mean, would I notice anything happen that's major or would it be something minor to me such as hdmi... just curious.
