|
| 17:46 | jjshawver | joined the channel |
| 17:47 | jjshawver | Hey Bertl
|
| 17:47 | jjshawver | (james here)
|
| 17:47 | jjshawver | managed to get the beta to use the hdmi via the kick_manual.sh script
|
| 17:48 | jjshawver | however, the camera wasn't taking images and streaming through the HDMI. all I was seeing was a light purple screen with the Axiom logo in the bottom left
|
| 17:49 | jjshawver | did I miss something for getting the camera to start taking pictures?
|
| 17:50 | se6astian | hi james!
|
| 17:50 | jjshawver | hi sebastian!
|
| 17:50 | se6astian | the live video feed should be running automatically on boot up - unless herbert made some customizations just for your firmware
|
| 17:50 | se6astian | hdmi does not display anything before running kick_manual.sh?
|
| 17:51 | jjshawver | I can give it a shot again to double check really quick. one second.
|
| 17:51 | jjshawver | I'm not sure if I checked without the script yet
|
| 17:55 | Bertl | Hey jjshawver!
|
| 17:56 | Bertl | what do the light (red, green, blue) do when you boot your AXIOM Beta?
|
| 17:56 | Bertl | *lights
|
| 17:56 | jjshawver | seems like it likely is a focus issue
|
| 17:56 | jjshawver | currently don't have a lens in it yet, which likely is the problem.
|
| 17:56 | jjshawver | still waiting on one coming in
|
| 17:57 | jjshawver | put my hand in front of the camera to kill the light, and the background went from light purple to black
|
| 17:57 | Bertl | ah, yes, well, that is expected
|
| 17:57 | Bertl | you won't get a picture without lens system :)
|
| 17:57 | jjshawver | @sebastian -> there isn't any output to the hdmi until the kick_manual.sh
|
| 17:57 | jjshawver | haha. yes. silly me
|
| 17:58 | Bertl | that's fine as well, the autostart is disabled
|
| 17:58 | jjshawver | the manual kick off isn't a problem either
|
| 17:58 | Bertl | there are two scripts, one is called kick.sh
|
| 17:58 | Bertl | and the other one is called halt.sh
|
| 17:58 | jjshawver | ah. ok
|
| 17:58 | jjshawver | any tips on flashing the github code on there? that'll be the true first test
|
| 17:58 | Bertl | if you check them with less/car/vi, you will see that they have an exit 0 in the beginning
|
| 17:59 | jjshawver | will have to wait for the lens before I get there. (smart to verify what I should be getting before flashing)
|
| 17:59 | Bertl | this disables the auto execution of kick_manual.sh/halt_manual.sh
|
| 17:59 | jjshawver | ah. ok. that makes sense
|
| 17:59 | Bertl | the first step you should do is backup your SD card :)
|
| 18:00 | jjshawver | haha. ok. was planning on just keeping a golden copy as well.
|
| 18:00 | jjshawver | have a couple micro sd cards floating around
|
| 18:00 | Bertl | the next step is to get the Xilinx tools working
|
| 18:01 | Bertl | once that is done, you can grab the github sources and build a new firmware image
|
| 18:03 | jjshawver | ok. I believe I have the Xilinx tools working already. managed to get that done at least before the camera was here
|
| 18:03 | jjshawver | :)
|
| 18:04 | jjshawver | was there any particular reason you guys went with arch linux instead of either android or ubuntu?
|
| 18:04 | Bertl | excellent, give it a try then, clone the github tree and run the commands specified in the top.vhd comment
|
| 18:05 | Bertl | ubuntu is quite heavy and android is not really open
|
| 18:05 | jjshawver | mind defining the way you meant "open" there?
|
| 18:05 | jjshawver | meaning to the user, or via source?
|
| 18:07 | jjshawver | http://www.wiki.xilinx.com/Building+Android+BSP+on+ZC702
|
| 18:07 | Bertl | ever tried building your android system from scratch?
|
| 18:08 | jjshawver | can't say I have, although there would be some great perks if we could get it working
|
| 18:08 | Bertl | like?
|
| 18:09 | jjshawver | general software. OTA updates, lots of already existing camera apps for point and shoot, and an easy to use UI
|
| 18:09 | Bertl | we don't have any framebuffer at the moment?
|
| 18:10 | jjshawver | that's fair.
|
| 18:10 | Bertl | so a GUI centric system without a GUI :)
|
| 18:10 | Bertl | but please don't let me keep you from trying/doing that :)
|
| 18:10 | jjshawver | haha. well. I was hoping to try out that LCD route
|
| 18:11 | Bertl | just for us, it was the simplest to install a well maintained distro like arch
|
| 18:11 | Bertl | which also brings all the updates, etc
|
| 18:11 | jjshawver | makes sense. pacman is pretty slick as well
|
| 18:12 | Bertl | for the LCD route, you probably want to find a nice LCD which supports 1-4 LVDS channels
|
| 18:12 | Bertl | which might be possible to attach via the east shield
|
| 18:12 | jjshawver | yeah. been having trouble finding a somewhat high res small LCD.
|
| 18:13 | Bertl | 3-4" should be available at up to full HD
|
| 18:13 | Bertl | it's more finding 'the right' one
|
| 18:13 | jjshawver | yeah.
|
| 18:14 | jjshawver | assuming the shield pinouts / ucf info is somewhere on the wiki?
|
| 18:14 | se6astian | new article released: https://www.apertus.org/axiom-beta-uhd-raw-mode-explained-article-may-2016
|
| 18:15 | Bertl | jjshawver: I don't think we have it at the wiki yet, but it is definitely on the schematics for mainboard and the debug shield
|
| 18:15 | jjshawver | ok sounds good. thanks for the pointer
|
| 18:16 | Bertl | and do not hesitate to ask me for help with a potential LCD candidate
|
| 18:16 | jjshawver | will look into that and hopefully get back to you guys on progress after the lens comes in :)
|
| 18:16 | Bertl | while it is not our main focus, I'm pretty sure many folks are interested
|
| 18:16 | jjshawver | and I'll likely take you up on that :)
|
| 18:16 | jjshawver | agreed
|
| 18:17 | Bertl | you can go old-fashioned and grab a piece of cardboard and make a tiny hole into it ...
|
| 18:18 | jjshawver | haha. yeah. that would work too
|
| 18:18 | Bertl | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_obscura
|
| 18:18 | jjshawver | anyway. gotta run. will check back in a couple days. thanks for the pointer :)
|

|
| 18:41 | Spirit532 | What's even more fun, they made them for radiation detection.
