$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('hendry', '[')b]linux-raspberrypi-latest seems to broken omxplayer with the error message "COMXVideo::Decode timeout". But yes my wireless USB works with linux-raspberrypi-latest, but it's range is pretty bad.


$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('moonman', 'E')verything works for me on 3.13. You need to disable dynamic memory split in /boot/config.txt.


Essentially make it look like this:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'gpu_mem_512=128
gpu_mem_256=128
#cma_lwm=16
#cma_hwm=32
#cma_offline_start=16')

Is that $this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'gpu_mem_512=128
gpu_mem_256=128')

a permanent change? I just rolled back instead last night.

That stuff looks like voodoo to me.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('hendry', 'I')s that $this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'gpu_mem_512=128
gpu_mem_256=128')

a permanent change? I just rolled back instead last night.

If whatever you restored modifies config.txt, then no.
It's just a way to split the RAM between the processor and GPU. Check here for more info

Nothing on raspberrypi is permanent exept for the warranty bit which can be triggered if you force overclock and the temperature gets over 85 degrees, unless something has changed

Was wondering if that config.txt will work going into the future with new kernel updates.

As much as I love Archlinux Arm, I don't want a broken Rpi to play movies with :)

You can always change it back... And it shouldn't break anything.
If you want a stable system then stick with linux-raspberrypi. In the end it is up to you what you want to use.
