ft2232_layout sheevaplug
#ft2232_vid_pid 0x0403 0x6010
ft2232_vid_pid 0x9e88 0x9e8f
ft2232_device_desc "SheevaPlug JTAGKey FT2232D B"
jtag_khz 2000

line 7 is the "interface ft2232". Anyone know if there is an irc channel for the sheeva?

IRC channel: #openplug on freenode

Because I'm on a 64-bit machine I had to do it anyway, but you might be served by downloading and building the most recent openocd release - just replace the openocd binary in your flashing directory tree with the one you built, and you should be good to go.

the problem was me compiling openocd with no ftdi support. Everything up and running now!

Awesome! Is it running better now that you have ubifs on there?

Gary (-;

yep, seems much better. I'm building some packages to put in the linuxice repo as we speak. Hurry and get the obdgpslogger repo back up so I can put that in there as well.

Did you end up finding a way to run video from it? I'm looking for a way to plug in something like a little 7 inch Xenarc or Lilliput.

You can get a USB to VGA adapter, or if you haven't bought a plug yet, globalscale [the same manufacturer as made the plug I reviewed] have a new product called the "guruplug display" that will probably meet your needs:

In order to use the adapter I would still need compatible drivers to output the video through the USB port.

Oh, sure. There's lots that would work, just search around a bit. I'd suggest searching the forums on plugcomputer.org for "vga"
