melta101•11/25/24, 11:43 AM

it is!
though loading is easy
a simple command
testing takes a toll
idk maybe my workflow is bad

have you used LVGL in linux? @melta101

ZZacckOsiemo have you used LVGL in linux? @melta101

melta101•11/25/24, 11:43 AM

i havnt used LVGL ever

melta101•11/25/24, 11:43 AM

used QT tho

Mmelta101 i havnt used LVGL ever

ZacckOsiemoOP•11/25/24, 11:43 AM

Oh its nice

Mmelta101 used QT tho

ZacckOsiemoOP•11/25/24, 11:44 AM

Last time I used QT i was making apps for Nokia phones @owuor staring at you

demn!

melta101•11/25/24, 11:45 AM

if i find some time
let's see LVGL

currently saving money to buy debuggers

melta101•11/25/24, 11:45 AM

Tag connects are sooo god damn costly

ZacckOsiemoOP•11/25/24, 11:47 AM

Lol I usually use the little clone ones, I still dont have a professional debugger

ZacckOsiemoOP•11/25/24, 11:47 AM

Oh wait, I have the PIC one

ZZacckOsiemo Lol I usually use the little clone ones, I still dont have a professional debugg...

melta101•11/25/24, 11:48 AM

thinking of getting a bus pirate

melta101•11/25/24, 11:48 AM

it has openocd support

Mmelta101 thinking of getting a bus pirate

ZacckOsiemoOP•11/25/24, 11:48 AM

I have one, in my former home

melta101•11/25/24, 11:48 AM

other thing is also a tag connect wire

ZacckOsiemoOP•11/25/24, 11:48 AM

Half of my lab is so far away

ZZacckOsiemo Half of my lab is so far away 😦

melta101•11/25/24, 11:48 AM

oof

Mmelta101 other thing is also a tag connect wire

melta101•11/25/24, 11:49 AM

35$ for 10 pieces of wire

ZacckOsiemoOP•11/25/24, 11:49 AM

there has to be some IP for it to cost that much

ZZacckOsiemo there has to be some IP for it to cost that much

melta101•11/25/24, 11:50 AM

it is
that's the reason

Mmelta101 it is that's the reason

ZacckOsiemoOP•11/25/24, 11:50 AM

makes sense

ZacckOsiemoOP•11/25/24, 11:50 AM

we need to discover one of these things and make royalties as well

melta101•11/25/24, 11:51 AM

i mean
i love the whole tag connect concept
but ....

ZacckOsiemoOP•11/25/24, 11:52 AM

I like the software side

melta101•11/25/24, 11:53 AM

it has SW?

Mmelta101 it has SW?

ZacckOsiemoOP•11/25/24, 11:55 AM

I mean for royalties

melta101•11/25/24, 11:55 AM

Oh!
lol

melta101•11/25/24, 11:55 AM

i see

@ZacckOsiemo (and anyone else interested in a RPi Yocto Project)
Yes, the Pi is supported by the Yocto Project.
You need to include the meta-raspberry-pi layer from https://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-raspberrypi
In your local.conflocal.conf file, set the MACHINE variable to to one of the machines listed in meta-raspberry-pi/conf/machine
I would then also highly recommend enableing the UART by adding the following line to local.conflocal.conf
ENABLE_UART = "1"ENABLE_UART = "1"
For other options, such as enabling SPI, Video4Linux, etc, checkout the page
https://meta-raspberrypi.readthedocs.io/en/latest/extra-build-config.html

As for OpenOCD - there is already a recipe for it

To see if there is a recipe for something, go to
https://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/branch/master/recipes/
Search for the software name - in this case openocd, and if there is a known recipe, it will give you the details.

OpenOCD is supported by meta-openembedded (which is probably the second set of layers most people should be installing after Poky!)

I would have replied earlier, but I have my French classes on a Monday morning.

Hallo everyone

Hi @Event Pings,
I won't be around this Friday but the show must go on; @32bitSaviour is going to be leading this week's Office Hours on "Contributing to Open Source Projects," which will include an update on what he's been upstreaming in the Zephyr Project.

Join the gang Friday at 15:00 UTC: https://discord.gg/cHNGvqMJG9?event=1310601287167119400

Start with something small like Arduino and then move to STM32/ESP32. I suggest buying an MCU dev board and following some YT videos. Get the basic peripheral working and interfacing sensors & actuators. Also, check the event section in the server to learn more about embedded s/w development. The episodes of engineering hours will surely help you.
Best wishes!
