Wiki/Project changes

June 2009

Release 3.1 is out for APF9328 & APF27: [1]
SSinyagin created a page to think about an enclosure for the APF27: APF_Enclosure
Work is ongoing to support OV9653 CMOS sensor on APF27: OV9653
Work is ongoing at the HEFR to port Android on the APF27: Android
YvanR updated its project page: MotionSystem
Video capture pages were updated/created: Using_the_i.MX27_video_codec Camera_interface
QEmu can now be directly used with Armadeus generated rootfs images: QEMU
A page has been created to explain how to install Ubuntu on APF (requires at least an APF27 with 128Mb and is quite slow yet) Ubuntu_on_APF
A new page has been created to support the new Armadeus System's development board (in partnership with HMS) for people wanting to work with industrial busses/actionners: HMS_Demo
A new page has been created to support the (coming soon) Armadeus System's wireless extension board for the APF27: Wireless_extension_board
Since Release 3.1, SVN repository is no more updated. We now use GIT as version control system for the project: GIT_Migration

There is a new page to know how to create POD components
Linux 2.6.29 integration has continued and the new kernel is now ready for the coming 3.1 release.
AlexG & PaoloB joined us, but didn't fill their personnal page ;-). JulienL joined us and did it.
GPIO driver is now installed by default in rootfs so the installation procedure has moved here. Idem for USB gadget that has moved here.
A tutorial for newcomers has been created (but is still in "development")
PaoloB is trying to finally have QEMU working for Armadeus SDK

DVI_/_HDMI page has been created to allow (lucky) APF27DevFull owners to play with their HDMI ouput.
JTAG seems to be functionnal now
Camera_interface page has been created to explain how to connect CMOS sensors to the APF boards (currently only APF27)
Automatically_launch_your_application now explains you how to start your own application automatically at board startup
DavidD, JeanChristopheL joined us and filled their personnal page
Integration_of_Linux_2.6.29 has started, any help would be appreciated !
POD (Peripherals_On_Demand) now has an installation guide
XavierH created a page to explain how to use Flot library on the APF boards.
AntoineR has provided us his SDL audio player example

First setup procedure has been simplified for newcomers: Setup
FPGA loader is now working on APF27 too: FPGA_loader
as most drivers are now integrated in default rootfs, the manual installation part of their respective Wiki page has moved/will move to the "discussion" Tab
Thanks to JulienC, a new page explaining how to setup your APF's Ethernet MAC address has been created: Ethernet_MAC_address
FrankA, XavierH, JonathanI, JulienViaud joined us and created their Wiki page
Wishbone examples were improved: A_simple_design_with_Wishbone_bus Simple_blinking_LED
Xenomai is now integrated in our Buildroot and should be usable by everyone: Xenomai | Xenomai:examples_usage | Xenomai:Blinking_LEDs

Trabucayre is waiting for your feedbacks on the IRC channel ;-)

XavierH started a page to describe his experiments on driver writing: IMX_LED_Driver_TP
FabienM started a page to explain how to implement a reset button on the FPGA: Ho!_No_FPGA-reset_button_on_armadeus_card.
a Category was created for POD related articles: [2]
SSinyagin & JonathanI started a page to describe how to use JTAG on the APF27: JTAG
