Some Questions To Pdaxrom Developers
« on: August 28, 2007, 03:42:32 pm »
I've been searching in the forums but I cannot make a clear idea, so I ask here.

pdaXrom builder:
I've tried to download it from the links I've found, but all of them look down. Is there any place I can download it from?

pdaXrom milestones:
Do you keep a place with the desired milestones for the project?

Which XScale features don't have support in the kernel yet?

/dev/bvdd aka bulverde:
I downloaded the XScale programming manual from the old intel website, an I think this device refers to the YUV overlay it has, is this point right?.
I understand it can accelerate video (it's not necessary to make any YUV->RGB conversion), but how can it accelerate the SDL? are the people talking about something else? Is it ported to the 2.6 kernel? Is the potatoes price going to raise?

Although I have a zaurus since more than one year ago, it was not more than a brick on my desk for all that time...  

Thanks in advance to all you who put your effort on such a fine piece of software.
