[Arm-netbook] Fwd: USB-OTG powered hub and cables, and HDMI Type D

2016-07-01 Thread lkcl .
hiya folks, i'm noticing that some people are buying just EOMA68-A20
CPU Cards - i need to make up a cable set, would anyone be happy to
help source these from somewhere?

something i'll need to add to the crowdfunding campaign, is an OTG
Host Charger, like this:
http://lavalink.com/products/samsung-galaxy-tab-usb-adapters-hubs-poe-hubs-2/usb-otg-host-charge-adapter-tab4-tabpro/

or this:
:https://www.amazon.com/Micro-Cable-Power-Samsung-Player/dp/B00CXAC1ZW/ref=pd_sim_107_6?ie=UTF8=41ossTm7P2L=sims=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_=1=D4B1Z21EVBHSMB74FC5G

and a USB-OTG Charger of some kind:
https://www.amazon.com/T-Power-Multimedia-Charging-NFC-enabled-Bluetooth/dp/B00KQYE600/

and also a Micro HDMI Type D cable like this:
https://www.amazon.com/Kanex-Micro-Cable-Portable-Devices/dp/B003ULNA3K

i'll need to get something like QTY 50 of each, to make up a cable set.

l.

Umm... not really. I'd need some pretty detailed direction, I'm not the
sort of artist who can drum something up out of thin air. You don't have
time to manage me ;) plus I can't draw figures (people) for crap.

Well, that sucks! I just got a MeeGoPad T02 the other day, looks nifty.
Atom Z3735F. I'm hoping in the next few days to you know tinker with it
some.

...x86 needs some true low-power options... that MeeGoPad BTW comes with a
10w rated power supply. If they don't kill / haven't killed that CPU
completely, it might be worth looking into.

 yes - christopher would you like to do that?  if anyone else wants to

 *sigh* yea i know, i'm trying, but intel just shut down their
smartphone and tablet division, which cuts off the ultra-low-power x86
SoCs they were doing.  they *almost* got down to the right power band
as well.  bleugh.

Good luck, Luke!

If the project is oriented to any public, perhaps I would do it more
user-friendly.

Perhaps it may be interesting to add a video like this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNR4zKqa6vI
in the campaign but simpler. For example, put the EOMA-68,
turn on, and run the graphical interface.

Is there any possibility of an EOMA-68 A20 with Android
or RemixOS? Perhaps for the general public it is more
friendly/well-know than GNU/Linux.

It would also be interesting to put sketches or drawings
(more user-friendly) explaining the EOMA-68 concept.

Perhaps it can be also interesting set goals (if given money
is enough). For example, develop an EOMA-68 with Intel
x86 with Windows and/or GNU/Linux if it is possible.

It looks good! :-) I'll certainly reference that in my blog article and any 
follow-up to the discussion list. Don't forget to link to the thread I started 
on the Rhombus Tech crowdsupply wiki page! And that might be a good place to 
link to the above page, too.

You can probably post to that list or even subscribe to it without having any 
FSFE affiliation, but I guess you don't really want to spend too much time 
repeating yourself everywhere. Nevertheless, I could forward something if it 
turned out that you couldn't post anything. (There was an initiative to allow 
guest contributions to various FSFE resources, but things are being rearranged 
and this might not be the case any more.)

In fact, my intention is to write a blog article about EOMA68 (and also other 
things that have been happening in similar projects), but I decided to write 
that message first because the FSFE blog site was down at the time. The topic 
is also pertinent to previous discussions as well, so we will see if anyone 
feels it worth discussing or not.

But by all means send stuff my way, get in touch privately, or whatever. :-)

hiya paul if it's ok with you i'd like to write something up, would
you be happy to forward it on my behalf?  i need to link some things
together, also i met some of the FSFE people at FOSDEM2016 and would
like them to know "this is what i showed you, it's really happening!"
because so many people there were really excited about the prospect of
a truly libre laptop.

more later?

 thought that said EOMA68-based for a minute did a bit of a
double-take there :)
