leon-anavihi jobol how are you?06:42
joboltired06:43
joboland you?06:43
leon-anaviI'm fine, writing a reply to the mailing list. I will have a short vacation tomorrow cause I am going to Belgrade during the weekend for a Hackaday event for DIY enthusiasts :)06:45
rZrjobol, leon-anavi : hi06:47
rZrleon-anavi, I wish to be there06:47
jobolgreat! I've never seen Belgrade06:47
leon-anavihi rZr :)06:47
leon-anavijobol, me too, this is going to be my first visit so I have in mind some sightseeing06:48
rZrleon-anavi, do you plan to show stuff there ?06:48
leon-anavirZr, no, just visiting. Olimex will show new stuff there :)06:49
rokrauq06:49
rZrthis company is really good at that06:49
leon-anavihi rokrau06:52
leon-anavirZr, if you are interested here is the schedule: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/hackaday-belgrade-tickets-2140911524006:53
leon-anaviTsvetan from Olimex will talk about their modular laptop. I am waiting for its appearance on the market and I will buy one.06:54
rZris it oshw ?06:55
leon-anavirZr, yes06:55
rZrit is06:55
rZryes06:55
leon-anavirZr, I think they are using now KiCAD for the 64bit ARM module and boards.06:56
rZron that subject06:56

rZrbut this is out of topic for #automotive right ? :)06:56
rZrreventing VHDL at HAD ?06:57
*** gmacario1 has quit IRC06:58
leon-anavirZr, I will have a look at that link later today.06:59
leon-anavirokrau, are you the one working on the HMI apps in GDP?06:59
rokrauleon-anavi: not currently06:59
rokrautrying to get this setup to work with a touchscreen - correctly -07:00
rZrrokrau, egalax ?07:00
leon-anavirokrau, I am wondering who is familiar with their source code of the HMI and can help with issue GDP-14907:00
rokrauit's that dreaded Faytech07:00
rokrauleon-anavi: that's the crash happening when the keyboard is plugged in?07:01
leon-anavirokrau, yes, actually there are several issues.07:01
rokrauto be honest i don't care too much about it currently - getting a touchscreen to work reliably would be a nice first step07:01
leon-anavirokrau, but I noticed that the apps do not start if there is only a keyboard... and Weston/libinput/udev consider a lot of the wireless mice as keyboards.07:02
rokrautried Jonathan's branch but that does not compile07:02
rokrauleon-anavi: really - wireless mice are keyboards - well yeah - that should be fixed then07:03
leon-anavirokrau, yes, this is one of the problems07:03
leon-anavirokrau, the second problem is that HMI apps don't launch if only keyboard is available :)07:04
leon-anavirokrau, https://at.projects.genivi.org/jira/browse/GDP-149?focusedCommentId=11828&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-1182807:04
rokrauleon-anavi: see, i am working on a workshop for AMM in Paris in two weeks and for that i need the RPi with the Faytech working first - I don't have that07:04
leon-anavirokrau, may be chbae and I can help you and after that you can help us :)07:05
rokrauleon-anavi: sure - that would work07:05
rokraucertainly07:05
rokraui've built cbae's branches for the last two days07:06
leon-anavirokrau, I don't have Faytech but I have Raspberry Pi official touch screen.07:06
rokraui have the Faytech displaying correctly now07:06
rokrauleon-anavi: If you can get that to work I will buy you a nice dinner07:06
rokrauleon-anavi: a very nice dinner!07:07
leon-anavirokrau, I have some spare time and I have permission from my bosses to work on rpi2 so I can have a look :)07:07
rokrauleon-anavi: cool - cbae got pretty far i think -07:07
rokraui get output to the official touch screen07:07
rokrautext that is07:07
rokraui can hook a keyboard to it and all but there is no drm backend07:08
rokrauso weston won't start - i got it to work with fbdev tonight -07:08
rokraubut none of the hmi stuff will run07:08
leon-anavirokrau, ok, I will have a look at it today. Btw I will have a day off tomorrow and I will back on the track on Monday.07:08
rokrauleon-anavi: cool - i think cbae got far07:09
leon-anavirokrau, can you please share the weston log when it fails to start?07:09
rokrauthen i tried the Fayech and fiddled with the settings until the image showed correctly07:09
leon-anaviUnfortunately, I don't have Fayech07:10
rokrauleon-anavi: i don't have the last output07:11
rokrauand tried way to many builds tonight - i need to get some sleep07:11
rokrauleon-anavi: was going to try jonathan's branch but it won't build on top of cbae's - there is RVI stuff missing07:12
rokrauleon-anavi: this is a mess -07:13
rokrauso i have no real idea how to build Jonathans stuff -- i think i will just hack this one liner myself07:15
leon-anaviok, I will start exploring the touch screen step by step07:16
leon-anaviI have to check how it is touch screen working on Raspbian first.07:17
rokrauleon-anavi: you need rpi-ft5406 kernel module07:17
rokrauand dtb07:17
rokraucbae has it07:17
rokraubut it's not working properly07:17
CTtpollardgood morning07:18
rokraui think something with vc not working properly - or what would be the reason not to have drm...??? no idea07:18
rokraumorning -07:18
CTtpollardrokrau: I've had an ftp account created for you, so will look to have a porter image there by the end of the day07:20
rokrauCTtpollard: thanks.07:24
rokraulooking forward to it07:24
rokrauleon-anavi: so there - hacked and done07:24
rokraunow i need to figure out to get it to rebuild properly07:28
leon-anavihi CTtpollard07:29
CTtpollardhey leon-anavi07:29
leon-anavirokrau, ok07:29
*** driftingblues has joined #automotive07:39
rokraunight all - catching some sleep :-)07:43
leon-anavirokrau, good night, see you later07:44
*** gmacario has joined #automotive07:47
CTtpollardleon-anavi: I'm going have to recreate your patch to add the meta-rust submodule to the porter branch, is that ok07:53
CTtpollardthe .gitmodules file is different to qemu that's all07:53
leon-anaviCTtpollard, ok, sure07:54
leon-anaviCTtpollard, I hope that soon all supported hardware platforms will be built from the same branch (as it works for Poky) :)07:55
leon-anavithe change of the structure of meta-genivi-demo was a good step in that direction07:56

gunnarxRPi build failing on wayland-ivi-extension for me.  Anyone else see this?09:24
gunnarxThis should be a clean build https://go.genivi.org/go/tab/build/detail/GDP-Yocto-RaspberryPi2/2/build/1/init_and_bitbake09:24
gunnarxbut it failed09:25
CTtpollardit's a known race condition, I'm waiting on the extension guys to provide a new taq for us with the fix09:31
CTtpollardif you rerun bitbake it should be fine09:31
CTtpollardif I don't get a tag through soon, I'll be forced to carry the patch or point to a sha instead09:31
*** gunnarx has quit IRC09:35
CTtpollardI've just pinged Eugen again to ask for an update09:40
leon-anaviI have seen the same race condition09:44
leon-anaviit is annoying but running bitbake again should work fine.09:44
CTtpollardyeh it's reported09:44
CTtpollardif we don't have a tag by monday I'll just change the recipe to point to the ref09:44
leon-anaviCTtpollard, good plan09:51
leon-anaviI got the official rpi 7" touch display working with a basic Yocto image following this tutorial: http://blog.unixshell.se/?p=2709:59
leon-anaviI guess I can apply similar approach for GDP09:59
*** waltminer has joined #automotive10:05
CTtpollardleon-anavi: sent an email to the list pointing out the inclusion of sota, feel free to correct me if I said anything incorrectly10:08

leon-anaviCTtpollard, thanks!10:19
gunnarxThanks CTtpollard, will do10:51
CTtpollardgunnarx: np10:52
gunnarxAnyway, there's a pipeline in go now for RPi as you can see.  Guess we have to rerun it until it works? :)10:53
gunnarxI'm not 100% sure it's the same race as before though?  The one where some generated code was not generated in time?10:54
gunnarxForget that, it is the same as before, yes.10:55
CTtpollard:)10:56
gunnarxI had another header file problem on my incremental build though, which is why I set up the pipeline for a clean build.10:56
gunnarxIt was missing "ilm_client.h" that time.10:56

CTtpollardchbae: just testing a clean build of raspi with the touch monitor faytech fix for the AMM12:01
chbaeCTtpollard: I would like to test it but i don’t have any touch monitor. :(12:02
*** gunnarx has quit IRC12:02
chbaeCTtpollard: I updated my branch to point out master branch in meta-genivi-demo.12:03
CTtpollardchbae: heh the problem is even if you have a touch monitor, they all like to behave differently!12:03
CTtpollardchbae: yeh I saw I'm using the head of your gdp branch now12:03
CTtpollardchbae: I noticed you had patches in your meta-genivi-demo that haven't got into master yet, do you want to merge them?12:03
chbaeCTtpollard: Not yet because the patch doesn’t be tested.12:05
CTtpollardchbae: sure12:05
chbaeCTtpollard: Could you have any extra powerful build machine? :)12:06
CTtpollardchbae: right now I have personal access to a 8 thread 16GB machine12:07
chbaeCTtpollard: Actually I have powerful 2 build machines(48 thread, 128GB) in my company but I can’t use it in my home.12:07
CTtpollardchbae: ok your machine is better ;)12:07
chbaeCTtpollard: I would like to use extra machine in my home.12:08
CTtpollardchbae: the go server might prove useful to you in that case12:09
CTtpollarddepending on the allocations12:09
chbaeCTtpollard: yes. I thought that I buy new machine (i7, 32GB).12:10
chbaeCTtpollad: Anyway first I need to fix keyboard problem :(.12:13
CTtpollardNobuhiko Tanibata12:15
CTtpollardwould be a good person to query I think, as we currently think it is stemming from ivi shell12:15
CTtpollardjeremiah: am I right in thinking that ^12:16
chbaePlease ....12:24
leon-anaviCTtpollard, chbae, rokrau I modified the defconfig and added rpi-ft5406-overlay.dts to the recipes for building rpi kernel in meta-raspberrypi-gdp12:33
leon-anavibitbake baked successfully virtual/kernel, now I am building genivi-demo-platform12:33
CTtpollardchbae: sent you a message on here12:34
chbaeleon-anavi: please test and give us the result. thanks a lot.12:37
leon-anavichbae, sure, but I have to wait until I built it :) I started a built from scratch so it will take some time12:37
leon-anaviSo far I'm at "Currently 8 running tasks (871 of 4351)"12:38

jeremiahIf you see him, can you ask him to send me his GitHub account?13:11
CTtpollardjeremiah: sure13:11

jonathanmawhrm, it seems my approach to applying the faytech monitor patches (a bbappend to linux-%.bbappend) didn't just affect linux kernels. It was picking up linux-kernel-headers as well, so enabling faytech monitor support practically caused a full rebuild.14:18
jonathanmawand that was done as a workaround to bitbake failing if there was a linux-renesas_%.bbappend but no linux-renesas (e.g. qemu or RPi2 build)14:19
jonathanmawBB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY turns the failure into a warning, but it has to be set in local.conf, not for the individual appends.14:20
jonathanmawat which point, the options are: 1) Do some conditional magic to make the whole linux-%.bbappend do nothing when ${BPN} is linux-kernel-headers. 2) Have all dangling appends as warnings. 3) persuade stephen lawrence to take the faytech monitor fix into meta-renesas14:23
*** aeiche has joined #automotive14:26

jonathanmawfun fact: as long as we're only making these changes to the porter and RPi2, wildcarding as linux-r%.bbappend works15:28
*** rokrau_ has joined #automotive15:32
gunnarxjonathanmaw, that seems like a robust solution, lol15:32
gunnarxr% matches renesas and raspberry? :)15:33
jonathanmawgunnarx: agreed. Hopefully it'll last until the faytech monitors fall apart :)15:33
jonathanmawgunnarx: yep. a piece of fortune I didn't notice because I was thinking of it as linux-porter for some odd reason.15:33
gunnarxI don't know they're quite sturdy buggers those Faytechs15:33
* CTtpollard hopes that this sort of faff can be avoided if we moved to a single branch model15:34
jonathanmawgunnarx: one of the faytech monitors we received was dead on arrival, until we stuck a piece of paper in the right place.15:34
gunnarxoh, ok :)15:34
*** Tarnyko1 has joined #automotive15:35
gunnarxThe buttons on the front are completely impossible to understand though.  Have you tried navigating the on screen display?  It's enough to drive anyone to complete madness.15:35
CTtpollardgunnarx: yes, and agreed15:36
*** jlrmagnus has quit IRC15:37
rokrau_gunnarx:  couldn't agree more - also the interesting parts of the menu (screen resizing) is disabled for me. I use the remote that came with the screen15:37
rokrau_gunnarx: but i sure wish i had not spent 250 on this piece of s.equipment :-)15:38
rokrau_leon-anavi: Hey how did the build go? Do I owe you dinner?15:38
leon-anavirokrau_, no dinner... yet :)15:38
gunnarxrokrau_, oh right, thanks.  Forgot about the remote - it is probably in the box somewhere.15:38
rokrau_leon-anavi: bummer - i forgot to ask you: Are you going to be in Paris at AMM?15:38
rokrau_gunnarx: Life saver15:39
leon-anavirokrau_, no15:39
leon-anavirokrau_, I am not even sure on which dates is AMM15:39
rokrau_gunnarx: Btw. my FT is the same model as yours, I don't even think they marked the differences between V1.1 and V2 in the model numbers15:39
rokrau_leon-anavi: okay - i will have to find you in europe then this summer15:40
leon-anavi:)15:40
rokrau_leon-anavi: Eric Boto's stuff should work - I got it up on mine, i.e. didn't do a full build but could intereact with the qmlscene on the touchscreen15:41
leon-anavirokrau_, I got it working on my rpi2 too15:41
leon-anavirokrau_, but the kernel that he uses and the kernel in GDP for rpi2 are different15:41
rokrau_leon-anavi: It just very much puzzles me what is missing from wayland15:41
gunnarxIt's so weird, I'm sure I read TMB on the screen, but it should apparently be TMS on the silver version.... odd.  Have to check again when I have access to it15:41
rokrau_leon-anavi: yes - he uses 4.515:41
rokrau_iirc15:41
leon-anavirokrau_, no his kernel is 4.115:42
gunnarxmaybe Faytech is not very serious about their version numbers :)15:42
rokrau_leon-anavi: he? then from a different branch? aren't we using 4.1?15:42
leon-anavirokrau_, as far as I see we are using different version from a different repo :)15:43
rokrau_gunnarx: did you try to hack your config.txt? and add the output section to weston.ini15:43
rokrau_radiofree: btw. thanks for teaching me that :-)15:43
gunnarxnot working on that today, so no :(15:43
gunnarxrokrau_, I will try as soon as I have time and report back15:44
rokrau_gunnarx: I hacked hid_multitouch.c by hand before i left last night and i think i got it to rebuild - so hopefully i will have an RPi image with touch and the Faytech and I will declare this my gold image for AMM15:45
rokrau_gunnarx: not pulling another mid-nighter since the wife suspects me of going to the bar already.... pah15:45
gunnarxOK15:46
rokrau_CTtpollard: any update on an image for the R-board from you?15:46
gunnarxgolden images... oh how far we have come... sigh15:46
CTtpollardrokrau_: we're in the process of getting them ready on the ftp server, you should receive an email from us today with the details15:47
rokrau_leon-anavi: Good luck with the RPi touchscreen - I have an engineer working on it too - will get him to join here at some point.15:47
leon-anavirokrau_, yes, it will be nice if he can join15:48
leon-anavirokrau_, erikboto's image for rpi2 is with Linux kernel 4.1.1015:48
leon-anaviuname -a on GDP gives me 4.1.015:49
*** Ivan__ has joined #automotive15:52
rokrau_Ivan__: Hey15:53
rokrau_leon-anavi: okay - that's a bit of a difference - i thought he was building from jethro and we might be a few steps behind that?15:56
rokrau_leon-anavi: I don't quite understand why we are not following one of the stable branches15:56
leon-anavirokrau_, yes, he is building from Jethro and GDP-ivi9 is based on Fido15:57
leon-anavirokrau_, Jethro brings a lot of changes therefore probably there will be a lot of issues when migrating for Fido to it.15:57
rokrau_leon-anavi: there is an issue then - not sure any of gdp and hmi stuff will build with jethro - i also don't quite udnerstand where the drm stuff comes from15:58
*** ToxicGumbo-work has joined #automotive15:58
leon-anavirokrau_, based on what I learned today there are at least 3 things that we need to do get the official screen working: 1. Modify the linux kernel defconfig 2. Tweak device trees 3. Add dtoverlay=rpi-ft5406 to config.txt16:00
leon-anaviI did these 3 things but they are not enough :)16:00
leon-anaviAfter my changes rpi_ft5406 kernel module is not loaded by default on boot of GDP. I can enable it manually with modprobe but the touch screen is not shown as a device in /dev/input. May be it requires a udev rule...16:01
rokrau_leon-anavi: yes - that's how far i have come - then there is an error message that you can see with journalctl | grep kernel16:04
rokrau_to the extent that the device tree is not found or unpacked or whatever...16:05
rokrau_the module loads with modprobe but never registers anythign with the kernel either16:05
rokrau_so that dmesg | grep -i ft16:05
rokrau_never shows the FT5406 module registering properly16:05
leon-anavido you see rpi_ft5406 in lsmod after loading it manually?16:09
CTtpollardrokrau_: biff16:10
CTtpollardrokrau_: like I say in the email you should be able to replace the kernel on your existing porter SD16:11
CTtpollardrokrau_: I have to go soon16:17
*** jonathanmaw has quit IRC16:18
*** jlrmagnus has joined #automotive16:19
CTtpollard*hopefully* both porter and raspi branches will be upto date with the latest patches to meta-genivi-demo tomorrow16:21
CTtpollardthe touch patch has taken more tinkering than expected16:21
CTtpollardleon-anavi: could you set the module to y instead of m?16:26
leon-anaviCTtpollard, yes, I can try that16:26
rokrau_leon-anavi: yes i see rpi_ft5406 in lsmod - but nowhere else16:29
leon-anavirokrau_, ok, same for me16:30
leon-anavirokrau_, this seems as a kernel issue.16:30
rokrau_leon-anavi: the module loads but never registers properly or starts working.16:30
rokrau_the module is in older kernels than 4.1.0 afaik16:30
CTtpollardrokrau_: has my email come through ok?16:32
rokrau_CTtpollard:16:33
rokrau_CTtpollard: yes - i just got it16:33
rokrau_CTtpollard: i will pull your image in a few and move over to the office :-)16:33
CTtpollardrokrau_: cool, the uImage should be relatively painless to replace16:35
*** AlisonChaiken has quit IRC16:36
CTtpollardcya16:36
*** gunnarx has quit IRC16:45
leon-anaviCTtpollard, setting the module to y does not bring any positive change :(16:46
rokrau_leon-anavi: I didn't expect that either16:50
rokrau_leon-anavi: it will load into the kernel but not register or do anything16:50
rokrau_it might indeed be a kernel issue - what kernel does raspbian use?16:51

rokrauanyone know how i force the kernel modules to recompile using bitbake?17:50
radiofreeshouldn't it automatically pick up the recipe change?17:51
* radiofree has yet to find a build system with a kernel development and testing workflow that's as good as just running make...17:52
radiofreei tend to test/modify the kernel locally (e.g just copy over the uImage from the source tree) and *then* create the recipe17:52
leon-anavirokrau, try with bitbake -c compile virtual/kernel17:53
rokrauleon-anavi: thanks!17:53
rokrauleon-anavi: I just pulled from cbae branch and it seems to be recompiling a bunch of things17:54
leon-anavirokrau, I have no progress with the touch screen drivers...17:54
rokrauleon-anavi: I applied jonathan's patch manually (I deleted the lines in hid-multitouch.c) and ran bitbake yesterday night but ended up with the same image (size and md5) as before17:55
leon-anavirokrau, can you provide me link to jonathan's patch?17:55
leon-anaviI think I missed it17:55
rokrauleon-anavi: not sure - it is in his branch of meta-genivi-demo17:57
rokrauleon-anavi: there patch is https://at.projects.genivi.org/jira/browse/GDP-19 in here18:01
leon-anavirokrau, thanks but I don't think these patches are useful for the rpi official display18:03
rokrauleon-anavi: no, they are not. i think if you want to get the official one going you have to go back to Eric's or your own earlier work18:03
rokrauleon-anavi: i.e. start from a yocto + poky + oe + meta-raspberrypy and add get that to work then add wayland into the mix18:04
rokrauleon-anavi: likely all from jethro18:05
leon-anavirokrau, moving GDP from fido to jethro is time consuming.18:05
leon-anavirokrau, erikboto is using another kernel, aka the one from meta-raspberrypi.18:06
rokrauleon-anavi: i am still confused about the versions here, GDP is based on fido, yet we pull from master?18:06
leon-anavirokrau, GDP-ivi9 is based on Fido18:06
rokrauleon-anavi: okay - can we pull that kernel instead of the one we are using?18:06
leon-anavirokrau, yes, we can18:06
leon-anavirokrau, but... I don't know if the other kernel support hardware graphics acceleration for Wayland/Weston :)18:07
rokrauleon-anavi: hmm. okay - i actually though we *were* using the meta-raspberrypi kernel18:07
rokrauleon-anavi: well that's easy to find out18:07
rokrauleon-anavi: if Erik's stuff runs we can look18:07
leon-anavirokrau, no, we are not. have a look at meta-genivi-demo/meta-raspberrypi-gdp18:08
rokrauleon-anavi: I can kick off a build of his stuff and run it on my pi18:08
leon-anavirokrau, recipes-kernel/linux/linux-raspberrypi_4.1.bbappend18:08
rokrauleon-anavi: oh... another layer...18:08
leon-anavirokrau, yes18:08
leon-anavirokrau, chbae created that layer18:08
rokrauleon-anavi: from pedroalvarez it seems18:10
leon-anavirokrau, yes18:11
rokrauleon-anavi: and you can put your kernel module autoload in there too18:11
leon-anaviI am not a kernel expert so I can't really say how difficult is to move from one to another kernel and have everything working :)18:11
mvickAs long as you're upgrading and not downgrading, things are supposed to just work (and work better!).18:13
mvickBut, the same could be said of most software. :)18:14
mvickThe kernel does maintain the user API across versions ("don't break userspace" is the mantra), so APIs are never taken away.18:14
rokrauleon-anavi: well this kernel is maintained by someone from "codethink" as i understand - so it should be possible for the sake of Genivi to get some info here what needs to be done18:14
rokrauto enable the gdf touchscreen18:15
leon-anavirokrau, is it?18:15
rokraupedro works for codethink according to his email address -18:15
leon-anaviI am not sure who is maintain the kernel in GDP-ivi9 for rpi18:15
rokraupedroalvarez: ping?18:15
leon-anavipedroalvarez, ping :)18:15
rokrauleon-anavi: that fell to Changhyeok18:16
rokraufor whatever reason18:16
pedroalvarezpong pong!18:21
pedroalvarezrokrau: leon-anavi: I'm trying to figure out what do you need from me18:22
rokraupedroalvarez: a new kernel :-)18:22
rokraufor the RPi build lol18:22
rokraupedroalvarez: we are discussing why we can't get the "official" touchscreen to work on the RPis and concluded that our kernel is too old ???18:23
pedroalvarezIt looks like you think I'm the maintainer of meta-raspberrypi, right?18:24
leon-anavipedroalvarez, sorry for bothering you. rokrau thinks that you are working on the linux kernel used in GDP-ivi9 for the raspberrypi. Is that true?18:24
rokraupedroalvarez: it looks like Changyeok is referencing your kernel in his recipes18:24
pedroalvarezSadly it's not18:24
rokraupedroalvarez: oh18:24
pedroalvarezSorry :)18:25
leon-anavipedroalvarez, no problem. Actually, we should say sorry :)18:25
pedroalvarezNah, it was nice feeling important18:26
rokraupedroalvarez: so you are just hosting the kernel repo that he references?18:27
pedroalvarezThat is probably the case. That means you are using something from November18:28
pedroalvarezAnd a lot of things happened since18:28
rokraupedroalvarez: ouch!18:29
pedroalvarezI believe you can use now 4.5 from torvalds tree18:30
rokrauleon-anavi: pedroalvarez: the patches don't look too bad18:32
leon-anavipedroalvarez, actually from Jun 29 cause SRCREV = "07009cab090ade3dd180e8a55d590b1a00072eed"18:33
*** jlrmagnus has quit IRC18:34
rokraui wonder how that compares to the kernel used for the qemu branches e.g.18:34
leon-anavirokrau, for sure it is very different :)18:34
rokrauleon-anavi: that's what I am afraid of... the rpi is not high on anyone's list of things todo18:35
rokrauleon-anavi: you see - the dinner is hard earned :-) no free lunch here :-)18:41
leon-anavirokrau, :)18:44
leon-anavirokrau, I sent an email with stuff that I found out and tried today.18:44
leon-anavirokrau, this is a really interesting task but I have a couple of news. First I will have a day off tomorrow because I am going to Belgrade for the Hackaday event. Second, I had some spare cycles this week but I am not sure that I will have time for this next week. Got an email from my boss with some new tasks for the next week.18:46

rokrauleon-anavi: Good - enjoy your day off in Belgrade ! I am not expecting this to be done soon. Also counting on help from Changyeok :-)19:01
leon-anavirokrau, do you have any deadline for the touchscreen? You mentioned something about AMM in Paris?19:02
rokrauleon-anavi: for that we will need to use the Faytech ones.19:09
rokrauleon-anavi: for Paris that is19:09
leon-anavirokrau, ok19:10
rokrauleon-anavi: the official capacitive ones are much nice though - so much less cables and stuff to work with - i use them for my embedded classes all teh time19:10
rokrauleon-anavi: but with Raspbian19:10
leon-anavirokrau, yes, they are great19:10

leon-anavirokrau, I switched to the kernel used by erikboto and rpi_ft5406 is loaded successfully.20:02
leon-anavirokrau, ... but :) ... Weston fails to start. As I expected the problem is with the hardware acceleration.20:02

leon-anavihi chbae, do you have a min to chat about rpi kernels?20:11
chbaeleon-anavi: sure20:11
leon-anavichbae, why are you using git://git.baserock.org/delta/linux.git ?20:12
leon-anavichbae, is it because of the hw graphics acceleration for Wayland/Weston?20:12
chbaeleon-anavi: yes. for 3d, vc support20:13
leon-anavichbae, do you know if this is now merged in the rpi linux kernel, aka the one from meta-raspberrypi?20:13
chbaeleon-anavi: actually, the branch is existed in official raspberrypi kernel repo but the branch was removed.20:13
chbaeleon-anavi: So I created the issue in https://at.projects.genivi.org/jira/browse/GDP-15220:14
chbaeleon-anavi: That’s my next work. :)20:14
chbaeafter fixing current problems. (keyboard …)20:15
leon-anavichbae, ok, this is a blocker for the official touch screen display.20:15
chbaeleon-anavi: yes. what do you think the right kernel version?20:16
leon-anavichbae, git://github.com/raspberrypi/linux.git;protocol=git;branch=rpi-4.1.y20:17

rokrauchbae: hello21:05
rokrauleon-anavi: catching up on the conversation - i saw your post to the mailing list Leon. Isn't what's needed to enable the kernel option to get the vc driver loaded by default21:06
leon-anavirokrau, I don't think it is that simple21:06
rokrauleon-anavi: because the kernel does not implement the driver properly?21:07
leon-anavirokrau, yes, the kernels are different21:08
rokrauleon-anavi: we should try to either find the right set of patches or try to use a kernel that enables the videocore properly - shouldn't we?21:09
*** chbae has quit IRC21:09
leon-anavirokrau, yes, the perfect solution would be to find a kernel from https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux that support hw acceleration for Weston21:14
leon-anavihttps://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/VC4/21:14
leon-anavi^^^ may this is what we need :)21:17
radiofreedo you use the RPI backend for weston?21:21
rokraufrom the Wiki page: The Raspberry Pi Foundation's kernel tree now includes the driver in the current rpi-update 4.1 branch, and also the 4.5 branch.21:23
radiofreebump to 4.5 :)21:23
rokrauradiofree: or so :-) but people here think that will break too much stuff21:27
radiofreewhat's the basis for thinking that?21:28
rokrauradiofree: leon-anavi was thinking that - no idea21:28
radiofreewell, someone could test an upgrade, and if it doesn't break anything... :)21:28
leon-anaviradiofree, I am trying to do that right now but it is getting late here21:29
