Comment on Shark bites ARM by gbenson

Nice work! One little thing though:

The line above “Hello World!” indicates that Shark has compiled a method and run it. Nice!

Not exactly... PrintCompilation prints when it starts compiling the method, so for Hello World the VM exited before the compilation completed. You need to use SharkTraceInstalls if you want to see when the compiled methods are inserted.

Great work Robert and Xerces! It was great to meet you both in person at FOSDEM, and am looking forward to more news on LLVM+OpenJDK!

Comment on Fedora giving FOSS graphics driver “nouveau” a try by rschuster

Sure I can use the Beagleboard’s graphics with touching the SGX (X11 via framebuffer).

I am not so concerned about the technical things. What bothers me is that although the FOSS community makes many advancements in regard to free drivers there are still some companies that insist on delivering only their non-free proprietary stuff to us.

I simply want that people know this when they talk about how cool the upcoming generation of devices is.

hi,
Did you know that there was a plan about reverse engeenering the SGX?

I was also told that you can use the Pandora(and maybe the beagle board as they are very similar) without the 3d.

What do you think: It is possible to cross-compile for Windows Mobile?

I’m a developer of cachewolf, a universalv tool for geocaching. We are now using Ewe( http://www.ewesoft.com/ ) in order to have Cachewolf running on all available platforms (Windows Desktop, Windows Mobile, Linux, mirBSD). We always have strong performance issues and would be very happy to have a VM that uses JIT.

Great news.
Is there any chance of seeing a JavaSE for a Windows CE (PDA) platform?

Why not use Scratchbox(.org) for your cross-compilation ? It presents you native ARM environment (with all native binaries, libs, uname printouts, etc.), while relaying heavy compilations to the cross-compiler on your powerful x86 host. Should probably save you from a lot of your tweaks.
