Hi -
I wish we could coordinate this a bit better somehow.
I was wandering around rebasing the DSS stuff I have and trying to get something other than 640 x 480 coming on mainline 2.6.39 the last couple of days; I also saw these new DSS build failures in npitre .39 build.
I can see Ricardo is better plugged into the source of these DSS patches than I am and has more experience working on them. But we have some related endeavours ongoing via Jassi's work uplevelling video decode stuff and trying to get workable SGX / PVR integrated.
Is he working in another specific branch/tree?
At the moment the patchset is bleeding a bit too much over some other things and it's not really ready for normal use. But to get an idea, the "v4l2" branch on the TILT tree has a very early cut of the patches which Jassi was able to get a decode on with Maverick basis (Natty PPA is still showing a broken Requires for libsoundtouch1c2 making it uninstallable).
Does it not make sense to put these patches into LT tree first where it can play alongside whatever other patches are flying around?
Sure, it'll probably be even easier to work with for this moment. Hopefully I'll have some time to work on this in the new few days.
That'd be very cool, I realize you are busy with your own stuff but if you have time to look at SGX / PVR in my tree at the same time that'd be super cool.
Anyway linus HEAD on Panda is otherwise quite nice now, the bluetooth stuff is in there already, WLAN is working well and so on. DSS stuff is still a WIP though.
Awesome, good to see these improvements there. Hopefully we'll get a more stable wlan and bt this time.
I plan to try a backport of the BT stuff that actually got in mainline FWIW on 2.6.38.
