64 | 21 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | | 45 Euros | 1x Odroid U3 | David 'dllud' Ludovino | <pre> |
65 | He needs it to test the hardware bringup and set-up of the Mali GPU |
||
66 | 20 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | with the mainline Lima kernel driver. |
67 | |||
68 | According to him, people have been reporting some difficulty on the |
||
69 | Galaxy SIII, while things seem to be working ok with ODROID U3. |
||
70 | |||
71 | Also, at least one core Lima developer has access to one ODROID U3, |
||
72 | and used it to add support for the Exynos4412 SoC. |
||
73 | 1 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | |
74 | If he or GrimKriegor who works with him stumble upon many unknowns in |
||
75 | 21 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | the Galaxy SIII they can use the ODROID for some testing. |
76 | </pre> | * Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli: Agreed |
||
77 | 1 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | * Joonas Kylmälä: Agreed |
78 | 20 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | * Filippo Bergamo: Agreed | |
79 | 21 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | | 39 E | 1x Odroid U3 | It is being shipped to Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | <pre> |
80 | We have now someone IRC who is working to understand if |
||
81 | 20 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | it's possible to run a fully free bootloader on the Galaxy SIII. |
82 | |||
83 | Since she knows a lot of people that could help as well, including |
||
84 | people that know how to find bootrom exploits, we have increased a |
||
85 | lot the probability of having a fully free bootloader on the Galaxy |
||
86 | SIII and other devices with the Exynos 4412. |
||
87 | |||
88 | There is also an u-boot port for the Galaxy SIII and similar |
||
89 | devices by Simon Shields, which currently depends on a nonfree and |
||
90 | 1 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | non-redistributable first stage. When he sent that code upstream, |
91 | it broke booting on the Odroid U3[1], so the code was not merged. |
||
92 | 20 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | |
93 | 22 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | This would allow GNUtoo or other Replicant contributors[2] get the support |
94 | 1 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | for the Galaxy SIII and similar devices merged upstream. |
