Re: [Arm-netbook] HDMI Player Stick as DRM-free Merch Alternative
> "Merch Alternative" I mean like instead of DRM Blu-rays or DVDs etc. Blu-rays and DVDs are essentially dead tech at this point. I have a hard time even giving away free DVDs anymore because people don't have players. ___ arm-netbook mailing list arm-netbook@lists.phcomp.co.uk http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to arm-netb...@files.phcomp.co.uk
Re: [Arm-netbook] OT: Librem 5?

Pyra for me for "phone", Librem5 for my wife. ___ arm-netbook mailing list arm-netbook@lists.phcomp.co.uk http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to arm-netb...@files.phcomp.co.uk
Re: [Arm-netbook] OT: Librem 5?
Will it be RYF? Probably not. Will it be better than anything we have now? Absolutely. Will it be better than Pyra or Neo900? Depends on your use case. Pyra will probably ship sooner. ___ arm-netbook mailing list arm-netbook@lists.phcomp.co.uk http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to arm-netb...@files.phcomp.co.uk
Re: [Arm-netbook] RK3288 EOMA68 PCB
I also have a firefly board, and have been pretty happy with it (though I can't get audio out over the HDMI to my sound system... :P) Sent from my BlackBerry 10 smartphone. Original Message From: Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton Sent: Sunday, December 4, 2016 15:36 To: Linux on small ARM machines Reply To: Linux on small ARM machines Subject: [Arm-netbook] RK3288 EOMA68 PCB http://hands.com/~lkcl/eoma/rockchip_rk3288/ http://rhombus-tech.net/rock_chips/rk3288/firefly/ for anyone who's interested, i've published the PDFs of both the 8-layer PCB and the schematics. i'm also documenting resources for installing mainline u-boot and linux kernel on the RK3288 firefly (t-firefly kindly sent me a developer board). apparently there are people who have installed debian stable on the firefly (for headless use) out-of-the-box, which is a really good sign. the RK3288 because it's a slightly older SoC which was used in the Asus C201 chromebook, it seems to have extremely prolific "HOWTOs" out there, as well as stable support in the official chromium kernel releases and a stack-load more. the only thing which is a complete utter pain: the 2nd USB controller (not the one that provides both 1 USB and 1 OTG port) has at least two known hardware bugs. first is: it doesn't support USB 1.1 devices (argh...) and second it doesn't come back up on resume. fortunately the *other* USB controller - the one that has 1 USB2 Host and 1 OTG port - works perfectly. on the firefly rk3288, i tried the OTG Host converter cables i have, plugged in a USB keyboard, up it came first time. i think the RK3288 would be an awesome choice for EOMA68, not least because it can do 4GB RAM. l. ___ arm-netbook mailing list arm-netbook@lists.phcomp.co.uk http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to arm-netb...@files.phcomp.co.uk ___ arm-netbook mailing list arm-netbook@lists.phcomp.co.uk http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to arm-netb...@files.phcomp.co.uk
Re: [Arm-netbook] Future case idea: subnotebook/PDA with QWERTY keyboard
> also bear in mind that from experience with the HTC Universal > reverse-engineering doing clamshell phone / pdas is f** complicated. They can be. But then you also have devices like the pocketCHIP which have almost all features I want from such a device (except the 3G) and are pretty darn simple. It's a spectrum, I think. ___ arm-netbook mailing list arm-netbook@lists.phcomp.co.uk http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to arm-netb...@files.phcomp.co.uk

[Arm-netbook] Ethernet with pass-through card
Does the EOMA spec have ethernet? I forget. Neither housing lists USB ethernet as a thing it has, which seems odd if not (especially for the desktop housing). Having an ethernet port in the bargain would make the pass-through card pretty exciting.
