[Meego-tv] MeeGo-tv Digest, Vol 7, Issue 2

[martin brook]

Hi alison, niels

I'm working the trimslice at the moment and am booting to console on MeeGo
core so far.  Compulabs sent me a part after seeing my MeeGo work with tegra
on the Vega. Search tegra on MeeGo wiki.

I am currently trying to get a framebuffer up.  My TV recognises a signal so
far but only shows black.

Compulab have been very good and promised to talk to nvidia about hardfp.

Nvidia have also just released a new version of their linux for tegra
package supporting recent xorgs.

There is a MeeGo section on the trimslice forums and also #trimslice.

I mentioned to the guys at compulabs about the TV working group and that
they might considerer making contact.  They said they would be open to an
approach to join.

If anyone needs contact details ping me.
