Here i will post my findings about the eken.First up is a html page i edited which has been dumped from my eken.Most commands dont work ( from linux ) so i will try update the script to show more things.This is what My dump looks like.http://www.amnet.net.au/~impossibleblot/sysinfo.htmlCPU/Hardware INFOFound Some more info on HardwareGot some details about the cpu/batteryUsb, The device Can see 2 Usb ports, and 1 Usb Host port (dock).UpdatedFrom my test using http://softweg-studio.com/The Cpu and Ram score is the same as a Google Ion or T Mobile myTouch 3g.528 MHz Qualcomm MSM7201A ARM11 processor (PV32B) 192 megs ramThe Linux BogoMips Score of 174.48 is hard to compare to other cpus, because its a very unrealiable way of comparing CPUs, it should only be used to compar Exactly the same Core CPUS.So from my standings this proccessor is pretty fast i think??Also from my calculations, this processor should be getting around 300 Bogomips. (@ 600mhz)I found this result for the same proc as ours.Processor ARM926EJ-S rev 5 (v5l) Linux BogoMIPS 299.00 Version 1.0APKshttp://www.amnet.net.au/~impossibleblot/?dir=eken/APKsRemote RPDJust installed Xtralogic Remote Desktop ClientWorks Perfectly

Just some minor Issues such as mouse course not centered, but all in all fuckign awesome Works REALLY fast!!The app itself is faster than the eken itself :S lol...( i will edit this first post with updated Things )Mods !!My future mod hardware The device on the eken is a extra small bluetooth dongle which ill take the plastic off and put inside The second device up the top is a Bluetooth GPS

--------TODO LIST--------------------------------Update sysinfo scriptFinish Video testing ---------Kinda !Install SSH serverFind More working APKs ---------Done !Install http server for remote LogsInstall rpd client to Remote Into windows --------Done !Mods------------------------------------------------------The Page Were everthing will gohttp://www.amnet.net.au/~impossibleblot/Video Testing Threadhttp://slatedroid.com/index.php?topic=330.0

USB Mod / GPS Mod / Bluetooth ModHere is were ill show my progress for the ability to use basiclly google maps as GPS.Hopefully it works out USB ModI got this USB Cable. Mini 4 Port USB 2.0 High Speed Cable Hub For PC Laptop - eBay, USB Hubs, Computer Accessories, Computers Networking. (end time 12-Jul-10 18:13:42 AEST)Works Perfectly With the Ipod/Usb Modded Cable.And is really small to fit inside...And it doesnt get hot from what i have seen ( will test more )Also Has great solder spots.

wow nice work!

 

[deadfunk]

this thread should be in Kernel + ROM Development

 

[jayrod]

Im not making my own Kernel or Rom.Im just testing so the pros can make them The more testing i do, the less they need to do

 

[deadfunk]

i am a newbie user too :cbut if this post is in the kernel + rom , the development people can see this

 

[Willo]

This is valuable info for devs, if you make another topic ill sticky it, or i can move it, up too you

 

[hilltopper06]

Don't leave us hanging! Lol! I am guessing the CPU is actually a 350mhz (instead of the 300mhz we all fear, and the 600mhz that it surely isn't).

The BogoMIPS score he posted here: http://www.amnet.net.au/~impossibleblot/sysinfo.html# Says 174 BogoMIPS, which are usually about equal to MHz, i thought? 174 seems very low, but 2x 174 = ~350. So i'm pretty confident at runs at 350MHz CPU is listed there as an ARM926EJ-S also, interesting info about it here: http://www.arm.com/products/processors/classic/arm9/arm926.phpAAAAAAAAAAAAAAnd this page http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/embedded/handbook/?part=4&chap=7 describes a 400MHz device running a similar CPU which gets around 200 BogoMIPs.Definitely a 350MHz chip. Well, imho, anyway Confirmed here: http://e2e.ti.com/support/dsp/omap_applications_processors/f/42/p/29897/103944.aspxBogoMIPS displayed for ARM9 architecture is half the actual clock speed. So 174 BogoMIPS means ~350MHz.

I agree with the 350MHz.Btw, regarding memory, kernel command line:

Kernel command line: mem=109M noinitrd root=/dev/mtdblock7 rootfstype=yaffs2 rw console=ttyS0,115200n8 init=/init lcdid=1

It seems that the kernel is actually using only 109MB instead of 128MB... I wonder what is the rest of 19MB used for?! Maybe if somebody is brave enough can change the update script. I guess the appropiate line is:

setenv bootargs 'mem=109M noinitrd root=/dev/mtdblock7 rootfstype=yaffs2 rw console=ttyS0,115200n8 init=/init lcdid=1'

exelent work kayrod, congratulations!

 

[deadfunk]

hi jayrod:i see the forum of dx, and a guy post this:

this is the sorce.http://www.dealextreme.com/forums/Forums.dx/Forum.39169~threadid.626327what do you think?

 

[jayrod]

Its not 174 mhz i dont think....Its getting the same score as 400 mhz devices.PLUS thats the exact BogoMips score....So it cant be 174 mhz

 

[deadfunk]

thanks for the reply jayrod.this week must arrive my eken.then i will see the true bye

 

[jayrod]

btw i get the same "result" in the same app.But i really think its not 174 mhz.

 

[Ches]

The app will be reporting the BogoMIPs score.As i posted on the previous page, for ARM9 CPUs you need to double the BogoMIPS score to get the true clockspeed.
