STMP1 / Re: Hardware acceleration, GPU
Last post by jalih - October 25, 2024, 11:33:34 AMOkay, kms/drm and hardware acceleration works nicely!
It's a really nice hardware for home automation central control. I should soon have my software (sorry about the background noise in video) written in 8th programming language up and running.

New Product Ideas / Re: Arm SystemReady Compliance
Last post by LubOlimex - October 25, 2024, 11:04:37 AMWe have no such plans at the moment. No. But we might consider it in future.
All sources for our Linux images are published at GitHub and available for anyone to see (you don't even need a purchase to study our Olimage images). Nothing shady or hidden. Differences with original source are easy to spot since we have only two developers that commit in these repos. I recommend you to check this document on Olimage images:

New Product Ideas / Arm SystemReady Compliance
Last post by f.k. - October 25, 2024, 10:06:35 AMHello,
we like the olimex hardware but we don't like that there are custom linux images for the various boards with custom kernels, etc. we would prefere to be able to use standard unmodified mainline linux kernels (e.g. debian distribution) to make sure there are quick fixes for security issues, etc. available.
For ARM servers the Arm SystemReady standard (https://www.arm.com/architecture/system-architectures/systemready-certification-program) is very popular to standardize the boot process/interface. It's also available for general embedded devices.
Are there any plans to make some boards compliant to the Arm SystemReady standard?

STMP1 / Re: Alternate RAM for STMP157
Last post by gs018 - October 24, 2024, 11:22:11 AMThank you for your reply,
Can you also please help me with the STMP processor, is it STM32MP157CAA OR STM32MP157AAA.

STMP1 / Re: Hardware acceleration, GPU
Last post by LubOlimex - October 23, 2024, 10:36:53 AMFirst check if that is possible in the STM forums. For some task hardware decoding is not supported, like video streaming, check this post:

STMP1 / Hardware acceleration, GPU
Last post by jalih - October 23, 2024, 09:20:43 AMHi, I just received STM32MP157 board and got it up and running. Is it possible to get hardware accelerated GPU support working? I would like to use Nuklear based GUI with SDL2 backend for my application and need OpenGL support for that. Also KMSDRM support would be nice.

ESP32 / Re: Olimex ESP32-EVB Rev H DC ...
Last post by LubOlimex - October 23, 2024, 08:18:34 AMCan you describe the problem in more detail? What code are you using? How did you determine it doesn't work? What does the box of the board say revision H or revision H1?
Revision H is pretty old hardware revision, we are currently manufacturing revision K1. Revision H was reported to have some start up problems that were fixed in revision H1 and then further fixed in revision I. Refer to the revision chagnes to see them:
https://github.com/OLIMEX/ESP32-EVB/tree/master/HARDWARE
Check if R24 is 470k - if only 470k is present, solder 1k/0603 size over the 470k as mentioned in the log, this would improve the startup behavior.

ESP32 / Olimex ESP32-EVB Rev H DC powe...
Last post by mitchellmerca - October 22, 2024, 11:28:56 PMHello,
I'm having an issue with our Rev H board not booting up when powered via the DC jack. If powered over USB, they work fine, and also previous versions work.
Any ideas to get the Rev H boards working properly, other than power them via USB?

STMP1 / Re: Alternate RAM for STMP157
Last post by LubOlimex - October 22, 2024, 04:17:17 PMHard to say, even when RAM seems the same it might require slight software tweaks, but maybe K4B4G1646E-BMMA.
