[Arm-netbook] EOMA68 Libre laptop PCB2

quick update, i had to go back to using the 640x480 camera as the
casio camera belongs to chris. i look forward to making an EOMA68
camcorder. ironically it'll need a full processor actually inside the
Housing (probably something like an allwinner R8) as it needs to be
able to do full HD video encode *on-board*. not enough bandwidth to
get videos out of USB2 otherwise.

You're not talking about me, are you? Because I don't remember lending you
a camera of any kind.

Oh, whoops. I somehow think I've missed mention of him. That said, I
confess that I also don't read every single message...

Aren’t some of the hardware encoders flexible enough to encode into
VP9/8 or heck Theora?

yyep. turns out that google provides VP8 and VP9 hard macros "for
free" to any serious fabless semiconductor designer that's going to
production.

I've been searching on:
http://rhombus-tech.net/community_ideas/laptop_15in/pcbs/

(with a slight formatting fix, may need double check...)

And I couldn't find what I wanted to know: are there GPIO (or anything
else that can do) available on the laptop pcbs ?

I ask in the context of the keyboard ligthing LED idea we discussed earlier.

That would make some other laptop tinkering / modification ideas viable...

you want http://hands.com/~lkcl/eoma/laptop_15in then check pcb1
directory for a schematic PDF (just generated yesterday).

there's very very little available, i had to use pretty much all of
them. there's a 6-pin header which is for I2C and UART - that's all.
that's the *only* spare pins. J1 in the above schematic.

you could hang an I2C GPIO expander off the 6-pin port, but for god's
sake don't try to power the LEDs from the VREFTTL coming off that same
pin-header: take power from J4 instead.
