Hey folks

So I've been animating a small team of people under the label "Landing Teams" to experiment with the whole Landing Teams concept. Torez Smith has been working on Texas Instruments OMAP3 boards and Matt Waddel on ARM Versatile Express with quad-A9 tile. These two have been busy for some months now, trying to improve the support for these boards in Linaro!

I've recently uploaded past meeting notes to the wiki and will send out minutes after our 3 weekly calls. Please find today's minutes and last week's activity reports below.

Cheers,

=== Minutes ===

* New meeting format

* New wiki pages

* Actions items from previous meeting * Torez to file a bug for LCD issue on IGEP . DONE just now LP #633338

* Accomplishment / progress reports * Vexpress - Matt * Sent reworked u-boot patches; expect these will be rejected because they need to be rebased on upstream u-boot-next branch * Some initrd issues seem to creep in, mouse stopped working; seems to be initrd not loading the driver anymore LP #633253 * MMC and USB don't work together; if you use an USB rootfs, MMC stops working; LP #632798; Matt is talking to Vinod and Pawel on this bug, might be fixed in 2.6.36 * Loïc mentioned http://hudson.dooz.org/ to help testing upstream kernels for the above issue

* OMAP3 - Torez * Opened a bunch of bugs to track things to make sure we can install Linaro on OMAP3 boards: linaro-media-create support, network support, kernel upgrades, xorg support etc.; tested mostly on XM * General observation is that generally linaro-media-create works, but flash-kernel ususally doesn't * Tom has a different XM revA02 while Torez has a A01; flash-kernel seems to work for Tom * IGEP flash-kernel seems to always work fine * XM revA01 is clearly unstable, need to stop working on that one * Checked with ogra, and seems it can't be helped . ACTION Loïc to find a replacement XM for Torez . ACTION Loïc to check what to do with broken boards * Network: worked on XM all the time; IGEP: still working the issues out . ACTION Torez to add boards to Internal/Hardware wiki page * Flash-kernel: had to install extra packages to achieve that; LP #628848 * LCD: still an issue on IGEP

== Activity reports == === Matt Waddel === ==== this week ==== * validated new vexpress headless images * found bug in u-boot causing initrd problems * found problem with flash mtd mounting (thx lool and scottb) * several changes to linaro-media-create script for vexpress * closed outstanding linaro-media-create bugs assigned to me * qatracker deploy instructions * re-formated u-boot patches - will submit tomorrow

==== next week ==== * US holiday * push u-boot changes before merge window opens * bug fixing on vexpress - memory issue, initrd on command line * flash-kernel implementation * try Lorenzo's vexpress arm device-tree * Start mmc u-boot device driver
