Hi yall
As an experiment installed a native build rootfs including the gnome desktop and used the full glibc. I also built everything using gcc4.6.0 except fot the kernel (PSP-04.00.00.12) which had to be built with code-sourcery that comes with the DM8168/ca8168/amxxxx evm. ( I did not want to troubleshoot kernel panic). Anyway, I used all of the recommended memory maps for the ti drivers. The question I have is there any documentation that explains in engineering detail as to how to configure the ram? THis evm has 2G of ddr3 and I find it quite disturbing that only 256M is allotted for the user ram. I can squeak out an extra 100M for a total of 384M. ANy more than that the kernel complains when loading the ti video drivers. It would be nice to know where over 1.5G of ram is being used, and why it is not being accessed by the user space. the program free reports a bit less than the boot arg mem=384M I am aware that to get more ram don't use glibc; however, this is not the issue.
thanks
