    guidol reacted to JORGETECH in Ubuntu 20.04 mini.iso URL documentation update needed   
    Ubuntu changed the location of the mini.iso file for the minimal Ubuntu (Server?) installer in their file servers (since the 20.04 release), it's now located here:
     
    http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/focal/main/installer-amd64/current/legacy-images/netboot/mini.iso
     
    The docs should be changed since it could be confusing for new users/developers.

    guidol reacted to flippy in Fix dtb of aml s905d phicomm n1 box   
    I improved the dts of Phicomm N1 again.
    The reasons are:
    1. The Ethernet card of N1 is not very compatible with some switches. When the ethernet phy is activated, the flow control sometimes cannot be turned on, so  will get bad results during the speedtest.net . For this reason, I added a dts separately force_thresh_dma_mode, which is equivalent to flow control in software mode. But there are also side effects: tx performance is reduced. In addition, as auxiliary optimization items, set snps, aal; snps, txpbl = <0x8>; snps, rxpbl = <0x4>; their role is to improve the performance of the network card.
    2. The phy reset-delay-us value of N1 is sometimes not enough. When running openwrt, sometimes the ethernet phy cannot be enabled, so the reset-delay-us value is increased.
    Provide two dts files:
    meson-gxl-s905d-phicomm-n1.dts: This is the default dts, used in most occasions, when the flow control can be turned on normally, this is the best choice
    meson-gxl-s905d-phicomm-n1-thresh.dts: This is a dts with the force_thresh_dma_mode option enabled. It is applicable when flow control cannot be turned on. You can use force_thresh_dma_mode to control flow at the cost of a small amount of performance loss.
    meson-gxl-s905d-phicomm-n1.dts meson-gxl-s905d-phicomm-n1-thresh.dts

    guidol reacted to lsartory in Espressobin - Only 1 GB RAM detected on a 2 GB board   
    Indeed, the configuration in the mvebu64.conf script is wrong.
     
    The 2 CS 2 GB image is compiled with the same DDR topology parameter as the 2 CS 1 GB image (DDR_TOPOLOGY=2).
    It appears that the configuration for the 2 CS 512 MB version is also wrong, as it points to the same topology file as the 1 CS version.
    I guess this is not really a problem, because I'm not even sure that this variant actually exists.
     
    So to answer my previous question:
    What is used is only 512 MB from each chip.
     
    If anyone needs it, here is the bootloader (U-Boot 2018.03-18.12) compiled with the correct topology (DDR_TOPOLOGY=7):
    flash-image-ddr3-2g-2cs-1000_800.bin
     
    Note that only changing the DDR_TOPOLOGY from 2 to 7 was not enough, because this configuration is also missing from the Marvell sources, even though that's the parameter used in the build examples.
    The correct topology exists in the Armbian tree, but with the wrong name:
    https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/packages/blobs/espressobin/DDR_TOPOLOGY_2-2g.txt
    The A3700-utils-marvell/script/buildtim.sh script must also be adapted to accept a DDR_TOPOLOGY value higher than 6.

    I know most of you probably don't want to hear any more about this chip, but I recently fixed quite a few long standing issues.
    It's not perfect yet, but it improves scanning/reliable reconnect, incoming frames missed in powersave, ping times, and rate selection.
    Here's the patch set: https://github.com/fifteenhex/xradio/pull/12
    Edit: rebased from karabek: https://github.com/dbeinder/xradio/commits/karabek_rebase
    And some important comments about powersave: https://github.com/fifteenhex/xradio/pull/11#issuecomment-616226880
    In short, relative to the current version, with powersave on, idle consumption is lower by 200mW, but with powersave off, it is 300mW higher
    - so that should be a consideration if you want to integrate this into Armbian builds for tiny boards like OPZero.

    Of course a 65MBit chip will never be fast, but I'd say it is pretty usable as an IoT node now. This hasn't seen much testing,  so your comments are appreciated.

    Everyone likes to say one word "give" and always for free (all free). Give a new core, and all the functions will work in it. Give support to all the existing equipment in the world and make sure that it turns on automatically, without any settings. Give me a new loader. Give the installation system to eMMC and so that you need to press one button, and better from a mental order. Give full-screen 4K video playback on any shit. Give the perfect job to all the shit that is produced and sold for $ 10-20. Give the source code, and that they would work immediately on the same command and without errors. Give answers to all your questions and be sure to answer everyone personally and in detail. And most importantly, everyone wants it for free and immediately. For everyone who wants to get it-there is a tariff, pay $ 10,000 and you will get full support for your TV box model for 1 year.
