nice chip.. basically.. but see this thread: http://www.gp32x.com/board/index.php?showtopic=42144 and try to find any specs or documentation about the included powerVR SGX530... have fun... its closed. thus also pandora will probably not have open drivers. search for statements about that. i haven't found anything that states about how open that machine will be at all. in short: the whole 2d/3d accel in that chip would currently be useless for us. openmoko took opensource serious till now, pushing boundaries further where we could. we want debuggable architectures. means no binary drivers on the app cpu for anything for sure. not in userspace, and for sure not in the kernel. this was nagging many people on gta01 with gps before we got rid of that with gta02. hopefully we will never make that error again. -- Joachim Steiger Openmoko Central Services _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
