Moving along

If ED decides to release the 2GB version while the 4GB version is still being worked on, that might come out soonish.

"Soon" is a relative ter.... oh wait, let's not go there

Just ℵ₂ months left

I always think of the Pyra as a very shy animal: as long as we all stare at it, it moves extremly slowly but once we loose interest and look away it will escape into the wild

thanks for the update, ed!

i'm too ok with 2gb ram.
would be nice to reuse the 4gb as 2gb modules, so no money wasted.
but as all the powerthings were simulated ok, i'm optimistic too, that there is only some kernel parameter off.

and... have a good trip!

 

[netcat]

is it not possible to ship with a sub-optimal kernel?
I would be (very) happy with wifi and a usable terminal
of course it must be stable

post live performance boosts ftw

Now, here's a question for you:
I know we've got quite a lot of OpenSource fans around here. Maybe some know some good kernel developers, who are able to include and improve hardware support and fix various issues.
We can provide a test unit as well as the needed datasheets - but it needs someone who is capable of debugging and fixing low-level things.
I am fine paying for the work as well.

Any ideas or contacts?

I propose you to contact Artem Mygaiev from EPAM. I believe he will found a solution to this problem. Also, he has strong support from TI.

@Vitaly Ch : Thanks for joining just to post that!

Does this mean it's fixed?

The subject line of the email strongly hints at it, the body of the email explains how it's done.

I was just checking, I don't know enough to entirely understand.

This is great to hear!

Still needs a bit of testing by the looks of it, but results look promising.

Okay, thanks to Tony Lindgren, the 4GB RAM Boards work fine now! That's the message of the day.

Not my news - but hadn't been quoted here yet.

 

[Caine]

Great, now let's hope those bloody cases are final as well.

 

[Farox]

Yeah FINALLY

Who is this Tony Lindgren on these boards, so I can like the sh** out of his posts???

Thanks Tony!

So, a typo 8 vs B at some point now fixed = good.

An ominous 'other problem' that isn't hardware or software casting a shadow on the project = maybebadish?

The mood changes so rapidly - hard to keep up.
