I'm looking to download some software onto my XDAII, but on the Tucows site there are different downloads:
SH3 / ARM / MIPS
Which one is right for my device & why?
ARM - don't know why.. I assume it's the type of cpu your phone uses.. I also assume that all moderm pda's use the ARM cpu..
if I 'm not wrong
ARM: Intel StrongArm CPUs for WM based OS
MIPS: for Palm OS based devices
SH3: for Windows CE devices
is it rather XScale 400MHz cpu XDA II is using and not ARM ?
my rough guess and information on various www sites confirm that .... it is DIFFERENT :wink: cpu as compared to XDA I
regards, monika
intel xcale cpu which the xda2 use is code compatible with arm which xda1 use
the sh3, arm, mips are bins
for the most common cpu platforms on pda
much like in the linux world where you can get bins for alpha, powerPC, i386,........
if you got a compiler you can make your own bins if you have access to the sourcecode
hmmm, but even on Tucows there is a section dedicated to ...
X-Scale processor so why bother to compile source code ?? assuming of course, you have one ...

I've a small but very useful program for Xscale PDAs and now i'm poting it to Omap ones: http://personales.ya.com/beemer/xscalemonitor.htm
It's working now on my S200, with all of its features but the CPU speed bar colour.
What I need is information about the Omap processor, its speed registries, or some sample code that reads/sets the omap speed as omapclock.exe does.
Thanks.
I'm looking for a registry editor and they are all broken down by processors, but the Hermes has a Samsung Processor, which doesn't seem to be one of the choices.
Here's a list from total_commander (http://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=11025)
- arm/xscale/pxa
- mips
- sh3
Which one do I need?
Arm / Xscale
I wanted to share my answer to a question I got by mail:
Well this might clear you up a bit. Every operating system has a kernel + drivers in order to work - that is the operating system.
Here is the definition from wikipedia:
In computing, the kernel is the central component of most computer operating systems; it is a bridge between applications and the actual data processing done at the hardware level. The kernel's responsibilities include managing the system's resources (the communication between hardware and software components).[1] Usually as a basic component of an operating system, a kernel can provide the lowest-level abstraction layer for the resources (especially processors and I/O devices) that application software must control to perform its function. It typically makes these facilities available to application processes through inter-process communication mechanisms and system calls.
Operating system tasks are done differently by different kernels, depending on their design and implementation. While monolithic kernels execute all the operating system code in the same address space to increase the performance of the system, microkernels run most of the operating system services in user space as servers, aiming to improve maintainability and modularity of the operating system.[2] A range of possibilities exists between these two extremes.

Me: The different kernels come from different adaptations to the kernel and each "chef" makes what he thinks works best... You just need to try. on the HD2 all you do is change the kernel zImage file and some directories in the Android directory.

System specs
Asus vivobook S15 S510un
CPU i7 8th gen
GPU integrated = intel graphics uhd 620
GPU dedicated = nvidia GeForce 150MX
The problem is that i am not able to boot with no parameter in kernel from grub for GPU.
If i pass parameter nomodeset i am able to boot but whole os is too laggy because of no gpu in use.
I already try to pass following parameters but no sucess
EXTMOD=i915
nouveau.modeset=0
nouveau.modeset=1
i915.modeset =0
i915modeset=1
i want to use intel integrated gpu.
thanks
