After several days working, the 2.6.34-rc2 kernel is working on gdium expect sound. Of course most of the codes are from mandriva and Philippe's work.
I will make some code clean and make the sound work in the next few days. It seems the sm501 sound driver needs a hardcoded 8051 firmware to work. Damn it. [...]

Some friends ask me about the performance of loongson2f. They want to know whether the performance of loongson 2f can surpass Marvell Sheeva CPU. Well I can not just say it's better or worse without giving the benchmark data.
Since there is a benchmark result of Marvell Sheeva CPU, we can run the same benchmark program [...]

I think most of you may think it is easy to emulate I2C device in qemu, for qemu has provided a framework of i2c, both the master and slave devices. You are right. Emulating the I2C is not difficult in qemu.
What I want to post here is not emulating I2C device directly, but emulating GPIO [...]

I have an extra gdium pcb board with uart interface from fred. Thanks .
Today I try to compile the kernel by myself and the new kernel works well except for network card. I can not see eth0 using ifconfig command. Then I check the pci list of my gdium PCB and find the RTL8139D [...]

New version of qemu does not support MIPS host anymore.
For the sake of portability, the new version of qemu uses TCG, a tiny code generator, instead of dyngen to generate host code. That means one backend is needed for each host architecture. There are i386,x86_64,ppc,ppc64 and hppa backend in TCG, but MIPS is not on [...]

Although Vincent has given us a how to article of debian on gdium, but there are some detailed things missed. So I rewrite it here with some more detailed steps.
(1) Prepare the new USB disk
Format the new USB disk with at least tow partitions, one is ext2 partition for the root file system and the [...]

This morning I eventually received my gdium liberty 1000 from zjs express, nearly 5 days after its shipping! Last time I use sf express to ship my mp4 player to Beijing in less than 2 days. I understand, because of the battery stuff can not be shipped by airline, but 5 days is excessive for [...]
