After watching the discussion on the list, we've come up with some
ideas as to what we'd like to do with those extra 60 signals.

Our plan B is to put on this $5 TV-in chip that Howard found.  The
ADV7401 and ADV7403 are nice, but we can't get open documentation on
them, so they're out.  We'll go with plan B if we cannot get the
information we need on Gumstix (plan A) quickly enough.

We've taken a look at some of the stuff at gumstix.com, and we have
found that, due to the placement of the connector on OGD1, some boards
will work, and some won't, but the key is that we and others can
design more gumstix boards that will work with OGD1.  This leaves open
opportunity for video capture, ethernet, audio, perfboard/PTH, etc.

We obviously have enough signal lines to support the gumstix 60-pin
connector.  Unfortunately, there are more interesting devices that
require the 92-pin connector.

So, first, how many of those 92 are actually digital signals (as
opposed to power and ground)?  If we cannot support them all, how many
can we sacrifice and still remain reasonably compliant?  Like, can we
sacrifice some address lines?  Now, with those sacrificed, what do we
need to do with them?  Allowing them to float is likely to be very
bad, so we need to know if we have to tie them to 0 or 1.

Or should we just go with the 60-pin and lose out things like ethernet?

We've poked around on the gumstix site, but unfortunately, we have not
been able to find the pinout.  Due to time constraints, we need help
with this.  In short, this has the greatest chance of getting done if
some people can basically just hand us the information we need on
this.

Which gender connector needs to go on OGD1?  Male or female?  We also
need information on mounting holes, if there are any.

One option we have is to use the gumstix connector but in a way that
is not compatible with gumstix.  Then we have to design all our own
daughter boards.  Opinions?

Finally, there are 5 unused analog lines (R, G, B, H, V) in the DVI-I
connector near where the gumstix connector would go.  Are there any
no-connect lines in the gumstix connector we can route those to so
that, for instance, a video capture board would be entirely
self-contained?

We're burning time here.  Our artwork guy is about ready to get
started, so let's resolve this quickly.

Thanks.
