=== 3D Demos ===
+
== Touchscreen ==
Angstrom Linux for CM-T3530 includes OpenGLES libraries and 3D demos. OMAP3 3D support is limited to 16-bit colors, therefore it is necessary to ensure that display subsystem has proper color mode configuration. For example for 1024x768 resolution the {{parameter|omapfb.mode}} should be set to '''omapfb.mode=dvi:1024x768-16@60'''.
+
CM-T3530 Evaluation Kit can be equipped with either of the following LCD touch panels: Toppoly TDO35S or DataImage SCF0403.
 +
See [[CM-T3530: Linux: Getting started#Select LCD model|Select LCD model]] to enable support for the particular LCD touch panel.
 +
The X Windows system of CM-T3530 uses tslib X server input driver to get the input from the touchscreen.
  
The OpenGLES demos can be found in {{filename|/usr/demos/}} directory in the target filesystem.
+
=== Touchscreen calibration ===
 +
Touchscreen calibration can be performed with {{cmd|xinput_calibrator}} utility.
 +
To calibrate the touchscreen run the following commands:
 +
<pre>
 +
root@cm-t3530:~# export DISPLAY=:0
 +
root@cm-t3530:~# xinput_calibrator
 +
</pre>
  
=== Video playback ===
+
* Follow the calibration utility instructions and touch the touchscreen corners.
Angstrom Linux for CM-T3530 supports playback of MPEG2, MPEG4 and H.264 video formats.
+
* Add the calibration output results into {{filename|/etc/X11/xorg.conf}} configuration file.
For further information regarding video playback, please refer to [[CM-T3530: Linux: Video playback|Video playback]] article.

  • Enlightenment v0.16 desktop manager
  • Midory web browser
  • Totem and MPlayer media players
  • GStreamer with multiple plugins
  • The Graphics SDK version 4.05.00.03 including the Linux graphics (SGX) drivers and ready to run SGX functionality demos

The Getting started with Linux on CM-T3530 page provides a brief introduction on how to install the run-time Linux image. This article describes package structure and peripheral device options specific to the CM-T3530.

Using Angstrom Linux on CM-T3530

Installation

Angstrom Linux performs self configuration on the first boot. This process may take a few minutes.

On the fist boot the user will be prompted to create a new user profile:

  • Please, enter the new user name and password.
  • When prompted with the language selection dialogue box, please press Next button.
  • When prompted with the Angstrom profile selection dialogue box, please select Angstrom.

Display options

CM-T3530 evaluation platform has four video output interfaces: LCD, DVI, LVDS and TV-out. Default configuration of Angstrom Linux for CM-T3530 uses DVI as primary video output. It is possible to switch between the DVI and LCD interfaces on the fly. TV-out can be used simultaneously with LCD or DVI interface.
Linux implementation of the OMAP3 display subsystem is described in detail in Documentation/arm/OMAP/DSS file in the Linux kernel source tree.

Display resolutions

  • The Toppoly LCD supplied with CM-T3530 evaluation kit supports 480x640 resolution with 18 bits per color
  • The DataImage LCD supplied with CM-T3530 evaluation kit supports 480x800 resolution with 18 bits per color
  • DVI output can be configured for standard resolutions using kernel command line parameter omapfb.mode:
    1024x768 - omapfb.mode=dvi:1024x768-24@60
    800x600 - omapfb.mode=dvi:800x600-24@60
    640x480 - omapfb.mode=dvi:640x480-24@60
  • TV-out supports PAL and NTSC standards

Examples

Switch from LCD to DVI

mgr0=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/manager0
lcd=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display0
dvi=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display1
fb0=/sys/class/graphics/fb0

Touchscreen

CM-T3530 Evaluation Kit can be equipped with either of the following LCD touch panels: Toppoly TDO35S or DataImage SCF0403. See Select LCD model to enable support for the particular LCD touch panel. The X Windows system of CM-T3530 uses tslib X server input driver to get the input from the touchscreen.

Touchscreen calibration

Touchscreen calibration can be performed with xinput_calibrator utility. To calibrate the touchscreen run the following commands:

root@cm-t3530:~# export DISPLAY=:0
root@cm-t3530:~# xinput_calibrator
  • Follow the calibration utility instructions and touch the touchscreen corners.
  • Add the calibration output results into /etc/X11/xorg.conf configuration file.

GPIO access

Linux provides simple and convenient GPIO access via sysfs interface. A GPIO should be exported using /sys/class/gpio/export. After the GPIO is exported it is possible to change its direction and value using /sys/class/gpio/gpioX/direction and /sys/class/gpio/gpioX/value attributes.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to configure GPIO 140 as output and produce a 1usec pulse:

echo 140 > /sys/class/gpio/export
echo out > /sys/class/gpio/gpio140/direction
echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio140/value
echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio140/value
usleep 1
echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio140/value


Angstrom Linux package management

Angstrom Linux for CM-T3530 includes opkg package manager. It can be run from terminal command line.

Digital Video SDK

The TI DM3530 platform includes a built-in TMS320C64X+ DSP Core that provides advanced hardware acceleration support for media encoding / decoding.
For further details, refer to the OMAP35x Technical Reference Manual. The Digital Video SDK (DVSDK) version 4.01.00.09 provides multiple resources for evaluation and application development for the TI DM3530 platform.

Admolition note.png Although TI DVSDK is known to work with Linux kernel version 2.6.32, it is NOT compatible with kernel version 3.0.y.

Graphics SDK

The CM-T3530 Linux package contains pre-built and ready to run SGX functionality demo programs. The SGX configuration script must be run on CM-T3530 before first use:

root@cm-t3530:~# /etc/init.d/omap-demo
  • The SGX kernel modules must be loaded prior running the demos:
root@cm-t3530:~# /etc/init.d/rc.pvr start

Running Graphics SDK OpenGL ES1.x Demos

To run OpenGL ES1.x demos, perform the following:

root@cm-t3530:~# cd /opt/gfxsdkdemos/ogles
root@cm-t3530:/opt/gfxsdkdemos/ogles# ./OGLESSkybox

This will execute the OGLESSkybox demo. Press ‘q’ on the CM-T3530 console to stop the demo execution. Similarly, any other OpenGL ES1.x demo can be executed.

For more information and command line options of the OpenGL ES1.x demos, please refer to the SDK user guide: Graphics_SDK_4_05_00_03/GFX_Linux_SDK/OGLES/SDKPackage/OpenGL ES SDK.User Guide.1.20f.External.pdf.

Running Graphics SDK OpenGL ES2.0 Demos

To run OpenGL ES2.x demos, perform the following:

root@cm-t3530:~# cd /opt/gfxsdkdemos/ogles2
root@cm-t3530:/opt/gfxsdkdemos/ogle2s# ./OGLES2Coverflow

This will execute the OGLES2Coverflow demo. Press ‘q’ on the CM-T3530 console to stop the demo execution. Similarly, any other OpenGL ES2.0 demo can be executed.

For more information and command line options on the OpenGL ES2.0 demos, please refer to the SDK user guide: Graphics_SDK_4_05_00_03/GFX_Linux_SDK/OGLES2/SDKPackage/OpenGL ES 2.x SDK.User Guide.1.20f.External.pdf.
