MEETING TIME, who is here?
16:05
Bertl
is here
16:06
BAndiT1983
is here
16:07
se6astian_
great, any news for the crowd to share?
16:08
Bertl
there has been some progress on the Ultrascale platform
16:08
se6astian_
cool, I am very curios!
16:08
Bertl
we now know how to get the GPU working and have it render to memory suitable for the display port output
16:09
Bertl
currently this is still done with the proprietary kernel and GPU libraries (Mali), but it looks like it should (at least in theory) work with open source kernel and driver (Lima) as well
16:10
Bertl
there are still some questions open, e.g. how to integrate PL memory transfers with GPU texture memory
16:10
Bertl
but at least I have a few test cases including rendering a texture map which can be accessed by a second process
16:11
Bertl
test and demo code will be made available once I've cleaned everything up
16:12
Bertl
on a different note I've been playing around with RP2 and CM4 and so far it seems we can use them for Axiom Remote and Axiom Recoder respectively
16:12
Bertl
we will create a plan for those in the next few weeks I guess and then start designing/building prototypes
16:13
Bertl
guess that's it from my side for today
16:13
se6astian_
as just discussed with you/BAndiT1983, I think it would be great if you take over the parallel display port IO test and then get a new hardware prototype design going
16:14
se6astian_
great thanks!
16:14
se6astian_
BAndiT1983: anything to add for that?
16:15
BAndiT1983
the replication of the previous UI prototype progresses well with LVGL, focussing in the screen management and button handling at the moment
16:15
BAndiT1983
also some hardware-related tasks have to be tested, but this is the discussion you've already mentioned, there are already some things which were preapred before, just have to restore some wiring
16:16
BAndiT1983
that would be it for now, will try to post screenshots and/or videos for the next meeting
16:16
se6astian_
nice, thanks!
16:16
se6astian_
I guess thats it for today, MEETING CONCLUDED!
16:20
Bertl
thanks for the moderation!
