Dear all,
I'm the maintainer of a small desktop Linux OS (FatdogArm) which runs on many
ARM platforms including OLPC XO-1.75 and XO-4; together with Yioryos we
released support for OLPC late last year.
I have recently looked at video playback acceleration and have successfully
managed to get it going for other platforms, so I'm thinking to do so on OLPC
as well. Before I start, though, I'd like to ask you about the status of
marvell-ipp (http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Vmeta) as of today?
I checked the OLPC git repos and rpmdropbox and I can't get the marvel-ipp
binaries there. I can actually find these binaries by doing google search (and
the binaries were clearly marked for OLPC usage) but I would rather be in the
clear when it comes to licensing - are these licensed to OLPC so that they can
be used in any OS that runs on the XOs, or are the license more restricted than
that? (ie: no license at all, license per region, official OLPC OS only, etc,
etc). If it is licensed freely, then is there an official location where I can
get this binaries?
I don't know the licence part. But I know OLPC has a repository which
has ipp binaries from Marvell built for Android. And we do have asked a
permission from Marvell to let us put their binaries on a public server.

I don't know if it compatible with your software since Android has a
different C library implementation. See
