Subject: RE: Wayland Display Management issue in Tizen

Sorry, I have one more question, is there an Intel based platform you can 
suggest that Tizen has the most robust implementation and best support?  The 
reason I am asking this is that we will probably be doing a PoC that has to be 
Intel based with Tizen as the IVI and I would like to pick the best horse there 
if that is possible.
See below for more details on this but essentially I'd recommend you use the 
NDiS-166 (based on Sandy Bridge) or the VTC-7110 (both from Nexcom).

Thanks,
b

Hello Geoffroy,
When you say "That Tizen IVI branch is also in sustaining mode ... so .. is 
unlikely this would get fixed ...", I have three related questions then:

1)      Is the specific branch you're referring to specific to NexCom?
This is the Tizen IVI branch that is based on the Tizen 1.0 codebase, the 
latest preview of that codebase was released on Sept 18th 
(https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/IVI/IVI_Sept_18,_2012_preview_update). The 
following Tizen IVI preview images were based on the 2.0alpha code. The Nexcom 
VTC-1xxx and other IVI systems that are based on the Intel Atom E6xx (aka 
Tunnel Creek) have a PowerVR-based graphics engine (based on a proprietary core 
technology) which required us to integrate the EMGD graphics drivers. The team 
developing these drivers are no longer providing and updating these for Tizen 
IVI 2.0alpha. Joel Clark explained most of this very mail in a previous thread 
that you can find here: 
https://lists.tizen.org/pipermail/ivi/2013-January/000307.html

2)      Are there are other branches we may employ for NexCom that are better, 
or is that the only one?
Unfortunately not for these Nexcom systems. We are currently using the Nexcom 
NDiS-166 (based on Sandy Bridge processors) and are evaluating the VTC-7110 
(which is a hardened, more automotive-grade version of the NDiS). This is what 
I'd recommend you use moving forward.

3)      It sounds like several Tizen IVI branches are in a sustaining mode; can 
you comment on the future of Tizen?  Will it go the way of its predecessor, 
MeeGo (I asked that because this is what I have recently heard)?
Not sure what you are referring to but the only IVI branch that's in sustaining 
mode is the one based on the Tizen 1.0 code. It's typical of versions to go in 
sustaining mode after some time (although what's less typical here is that we 
did not release a final version of it). What happened to that Sep 18 preview is 
by no means an indication of Tizen going away any time soon.
Thanks,
Barton

Hi,

Thanks for confirming this. That gives me more confidence that it's the same 
issue I ran into with a developer here but unfortunately there is no easy 
workaround for it that I could find. That Tizen IVI branch is also in 
sustaining mode at the moment so it is unlikely this would get fixed even if 
you filed a bug against it.

Subject: Wayland Display Management issue in Tizen

We have several Intel Atom based NexCom development kits running the Tizen IVI 
stack.
Could you confirm which system (e.g. VTC-1000 or NDiS-166) you use and which 
preview version of Tizen IVI?
Part of that stack is the Wayland Display Management library.  There are two 
issues that we have failed to resolve ourselves, and they are:

1)      The screen saver is fades after a fixed period of time and we cannot 
determine we would like to either disable this feature altogether, or at least 
change it to a much longer period of time before it goes to sleep.
You should be able to configure this via weston.ini (under /root/.config/). 
Look for the [screensaver] section and the [locking] option (in [shell])

2)      When the system is initially powered on, the screen is not active until 
it is touched.  This is extremely unhelpful when trying to use this system for 
a demo and like the prior issue, have not had any luck in figuring out how to 
disable it.
I do recall something similar on VTC-1000 (i.e. using EMGD graphics drivers) 
but I'd have to look it up again to see if there was any workaround. Can you in 
the meantime confirm whether you are indeed using such platform?
Can you provide any assistance in this area for us?  If you could point us to 
the resolution of this that would be a great help.
Thanks,
Barton Shields
