[tuxdroid-user] Tuxdroid ans slug (NSLU2)

[Philippe T. <ph...@te...>]

Hi all,

I got my NSLU2 yesterday so I couldn't resist.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NSLU2 if you don't know what's about)

First I installed Debian on it this evening.
Then I tried the various tuxdroid bits.
Here are the very first conclusions:

    * compiling tuxdaemon *OK*
    * running tuxdaemon *FAIL*
          o USB part seems ok (displays tux events properly) but not TCP
            part, seems not to be listening on port
    * compiling tuxup *OK*
    * compiling dfu-programmer *OK*
    * compiling svncrev *OK*
    * compiling tuxcore tuxaudio *OK*
    * flashing tuxcore.hex tuxcore.eep tuxaudio.hex tuxaudio.eep *OK*
    * sound *PARTLY*
          o ALSA and OSS-emulation layers are up
          o tests with mpg321 and aplay: the sound is quite hashed and
            lot of "alsa underrun" msgs, slightly better results through
            oss than alsa
          o recording at 8000 Hz mono is very poor (played on host)
          o playing at 8000 Hz mono is poor (recorded on host)
          o madplay -b8 -R8000 ...mp3 is correct

Note that madplay is a fixed point mp3 player.

So we can compile and flash the tux, try to get audio running better and 
we definitively need to work on the daemon part.
Of course I couldn't try the tts daemon.
BTW does Acapela allow you to compile on ARM with your current 
agreements and does it support fixed point mode?
