So project home page is: http://developer.berlios.de/projects/sm5xx/ Anyone who wants admin/write-access, please register with berlios and tell me your account. SVN will be activated in nearest hours. Berlios has direct shell access to your repos. So if there are any svn/CVS-dumps to import or any scripts to set up... The central mailing list sm5xx-devel@lists.berlios.de will be active soon too. -- Happy hacking ;), Andrey Volkov Varma Electronics Oy -------- Original Message -------- Subject: BerliOS Developer Project Approved Date: Wed, 11 Oct 2006 12:49:58 +0200 (CEST) From: admin@berlios.de To: avolkov@varma-el.com Your project registration for BerliOS Developer has been approved.

Not in the context of the 2.6 kernel. But we have a working configuration of MPC5200 + SM501 in our 2.4 kernel tree; see the "TQM5200" board config at http://www.denx.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=linuxppc_2_4_devel.git Best regards, Wolfgang Denk -- Software Engineering: Embedded and Realtime Systems, Embedded Linux Phone: (+49)-8142-66989-10 Fax: (+49)-8142-66989-80 Email: wd@denx.de If a group of N persons implements a COBOL compiler, there will be N-1 passes.

I wanna get the messages that the 16bpp have worked correctly on your "TQM5200" board? and if YES, would you please give some advice to me about it?

Properly speaking, we are use SM5xx on our MPC5200 based board. So this driver, by definition, working on PPC ;). AFAIK, only one problem exist in kernel FB: it is 16bpp (AKA RGB565). (in DirectFB and in X such problem worked around) P.S. Stephen, as I pointed in my mail, which you are quote, sm5xx-devel@lists.berlios.de is working, so, please, CC such mails in this list too. -- Andrey Volkov > Thanks in Advance. > Stephen. > > Andrey Volkov wrote: > >> Hi all, >> >> Yesterday I issued new SiliconMotion SM501 drivers >> project request to berlios, and receive >> approvement couple hours ago. >> >> So project home page is: >> >> http://developer.berlios.de/projects/sm5xx/ >> >> Anyone who wants admin/write-access, please register with >> berlios and tell me your account. >> >> SVN will be activated in nearest hours. >> Berlios has direct shell access to your repos. >> So if there are any svn/CVS-dumps to import or any >> scripts to set up... >> >> The central mailing list >> >> sm5xx-devel@lists.berlios.de >> >> will be active soon too. >> >> -- >> Happy hacking ;), >> >> Andrey Volkov >> Varma Electronics Oy >> >> -------- Original Message -------- >> Subject: BerliOS Developer Project Approved >> Date: Wed, 11 Oct 2006 12:49:58 +0200 (CEST) >> From: admin@berlios.de >> To: avolkov@varma-el.com >> >> Your project registration for BerliOS Developer has been approved. >> >> Project Full Name: SM5xx Toolchain >> Project Unix Name: sm5xx >> CVS Server: cvs.berlios.de >> SVN Server: svn.berlios.de >> Shell Server: shell.berlios.de >> Web Server: sm5xx.berlios.de >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Linuxppc-embedded mailing list >> Linuxppc-embedded@ozlabs.org >> https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-embedded >> >> >> >> > > > > ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
