| 18:45.30 | mikey_w | Is this the place for rhombus discussions? |
| 18:47.36 | mnemoc | mikey_w: yes, but the ML might be more effective. luke (lkcl) doesn't come to visit us often |
| 18:50.07 | mikey_w | ML? |
| 18:50.23 | mnemoc | mailing list |
| 18:50.32 | mikey_w | oh ok. |
| 18:50.59 | mikey_w | Is the hardware any further than the smoke and mirrors point yet? |
| 18:51.46 | mnemoc | mikey_w: not before the spring festival |
| 18:52.19 | ManoftheSea | mikey_w: smoke and mirrors? |
| 18:52.31 | ManoftheSea | it's at the "do it yourself" point. |
| 18:52.43 | ManoftheSea | as in, a couple people on the mailing list are doing it themselves. |
| 18:53.16 | mikey_w | Nice and the url of the ML is? |
| 18:53.23 | mnemoc | more of "draw it yourself" than a "do it" imo :) |
| 18:53.43 | mnemoc | http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook |
| 18:55.16 | mikey_w | Ok I subscribed. TU. |
| 18:55.42 | mikey_w | The ideas in the mission statement are commendable. |
| 18:56.28 | mikey_w | The raspberry pi only offers binary blobs and not source code. |
| 18:57.24 | mnemoc | allwinner already blessed us with a real git repo, with real history. https://github.com/allwinner/linux-2.6.36/commits/lichee-dev |
| 18:57.37 | mikey_w | The idea of a Chinese company complying with the GPL is unique. |
| 18:58.06 | mnemoc | this is not merely complying, also helping |
| 18:58.20 | mikey_w | Yes a great surprise. |
| 18:58.21 | mnemoc | one of their developers comes here daily |
| 18:58.31 | mikey_w | Nice. |
| 18:59.04 | mikey_w | I have afew ARM toys. |
| 18:59.46 | mikey_w | A nook color, a a81e, an OLPC xo-1.75 and a pocket edge. Lots of fun. |
| 19:00.13 | mnemoc | mikey_w: get an A10 based tablet and join the dream ;-) |
| 19:00.38 | mikey_w | Got a name for one or two of them? |
| 19:01.19 | mikey_w | Oh I have a beagleboard too. |
| 19:01.38 | mnemoc | http://tabletrepublic.com/forum/cortex-a8-allwinner-a10/ |
| 19:03.03 | mnemoc | hopefully after we start seeing actual eoma compatible boards modules with more SoCs will see the light |
| 19:03.29 | mnemoc | that's the point of EOMA |
| 19:03.40 | A2Sheds | mikey_w: the design is in PCB layout |
| 19:04.07 | A2Sheds | I'll finish it after Chinese New Year |
| 19:05.44 | A2Sheds | you can already order tablets with the A10 for $80-200 |
| 19:06.47 | mikey_w | I like the Ice Walker. |
| 19:06.58 | mikey_w | Now where to purchase one. |
| 19:07.19 | mnemoc | google :) |
| 19:07.42 | mnemoc | usually from .cn/.hk sellers |
| 19:08.06 | mnemoc | I got my aura ly-f1 for $108.... very nice tablet and comes with `su`, but adb is disabled |
| 19:09.02 | mnemoc | and the tools for flashing (and making them boot from SDs) are for windows and in chinese :-/ |
| 19:09.25 | A2Sheds | didn't Tom post a howto in English? |
| 19:09.36 | A2Sheds | hipboi |
| 19:09.55 | mnemoc | yes |
| 19:10.18 | mnemoc | but not for the SD-booting tool |
| 19:10.46 | ManoftheSea | Besides android, are there linux flavors for tablets? |
| 19:10.55 | ManoftheSea | or is it more of a roll your own? |
| 19:11.03 | mnemoc | anyhow I need a windows machine first, and from over two dozen computers at home I have none with MS's OS |
| 19:11.05 | ManoftheSea | I know ubuntu Tablet Edition |
| 19:11.25 | ManoftheSea | the A10 can run CE |
| 19:11.34 | A2Sheds | roll your own for now, but as soon as the modules are done, then all sorts of new kernels will be available |
| 19:12.07 | A2Sheds | even the Bodhilinux guys will roll a desktop for tablets |
| 19:12.18 | mnemoc | :D |
| 19:12.23 | mikey_w | I have an aakash 7 on order and I may get my openpandora I paid for in April of 2009 soon. |
| 19:12.43 | A2Sheds | http://bodhilinux.com/ |
| 19:13.08 | A2Sheds | #bodhilinux channel here as well just FYI |
| 19:13.10 | mikey_w | We live in exciting times. |
| 19:14.08 | mnemoc | A2Sheds: is that E17? |
| 19:14.47 | mnemoc | yes :) |
| 19:14.48 | A2Sheds | yes |
| 19:17.33 | ManoftheSea | bodhi? |
| 19:18.08 | ManoftheSea | That reminds me, I was gonna look at that trustzone stuff |
| 19:20.58 | mikey_w | Have some errands to run. Thanks for the info. Later. |
