Updates - trimslice

Postby pepedog » Sat Jun 18, 2011 11:28 am

I am a little worried, unless repo is being updated this very minute?

It is.. I changed the architecture on hardfloat so that people wouldn't mix and match. I'll be putting soft v7 back shortly for people to use until hard is running.

The armv7 repo is back in place. I was a little conflicted at first on how to proceed with the hard-float repo, but I've figured it out now. Be sure to do an -Syy to get everything back to normal.

There also won't be any further updates to the old v7 repo from this point on, all of my efforts are going into armv7h.

Sooooo,
Can I swap to http://Arch Linux ARM.com/armv7h/ now?

Not exactly... The v7h repo is just in the beginning stages, with a lot of packages there being mixed up a little for now until I get to the point of a full rootfs. Then a lot of package rebuilding needs to happen, though that part can be fully automated.

Once v7h is up and running for good, I'll release a new rootfs tarball. Hard float binaries are ABI incompatible with soft, so bad things will happen if you just switch.

So my guess is I really have a hard one, and most folks have a soft one. I must not use the hard one until it gets bigger.

No, your install is most definitely soft. What's on my panda right now is the only operating hard-float install, unless someone else is doing the same thing.

For those of you that are running trimslices, I was curious about its performance. I know that compile work was being done to make use of the hard Floating Point Unit, and that was suppose to help with performance and speed. Was wondering one if anyone had tested any media encoding, since the Nvidia tegra 2 CPU has built-in codec decoding/encoding features.

I was thinking about getting one to act as a media encoder/streamer, so any information anyone has is appreciated.
