Planet SoC

My summer of code is finally on! I had my last exam today, everything went fine and I’m now ready to begin my work for the summer of code. It was a fairly busy day, I had a couple things to do and I had to move my things back home because it was my last day at university and I’m gonna spend my summer in my hometown. Talking about home, guess what was waiting for me there ? Indeed, a shinny Neuros OSD! Big thanks to Neuros for giving me this nice piece of hardware.

I took a quick look at it, played some music and video, just enough for a first impression. This thing is small and very light, That’s funny to think that the kernel 2.6.15 of Linux run on this device. Linux is so amazing, I bet it run on a toaster. Well, It’s a really nice device and I’m very happy to work on it this summer. Speaking of which, I spent some times this week when I wasn’t studying building a nice wiki page of my project on the Neuros wiki. I wrote down what I think  is a good summary of the project and what need to be done. I also putted together a somehow funny logo mixing the happy duck of Neuros with the Audiocrobbler logo from Last.fm. I will try to keep this wiki the most up to date possible with design, development information, graph, screenshots and other such things. I want my project to be as documented as possible in every possible way.
So I will spend the next week getting familiar with the OSD (which mean watch and record TV all week long… just kidding) and with its source code. I checked out the SVN repository at some point last week but I did not had the time to look at it seriously. It will also be a good time to establish a solid road map in order to be structured and separate the work properly. But for now, I’m going back playing with my new geek hardware.
