Projects

coreboot

coreboot (formerly known as LinuxBIOS) is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) you can find in most of today's computers. It performs just a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes a so-called payload, for example a Linux kernel, FILO, GRUB2 ... [More] , OpenBIOS, Open Firmware, SmartFirmware, GNUFI (UEFI), Etherboot, ADLO (for booting Windows 2000 and OpenBSD), Plan 9, or memtest86. [Less]

OpenTK

The Open Toolkit (OpenTK) is a free, fast, cross-platform C# wrapper for OpenGL, OpenGL ES, OpenAL and OpenCL. The bindings are strongly-typed and contain inline documentation for improved security and coding speed. Additional utilities integrate the bindings with .Net, making OpenTK especially ... [More] suited to Rapid Application Development. OpenTK can be used alone or integrated into GUI toolkits, like Windows.Forms and GTK#. It runs on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X without recompilation, is easy to deploy and is compatible with all .Net languages: C#, VB.Net, C++/CLI, F#, IronPython, Boo, ... [Less]

Kolibri-A

A fork of KolibriOS carefully optimized for last-generation AMD processors and chipsets, with a special focus on resource-hungry embedded applications.

libpayload

libpayload is a small BSD-licensed static library (a lightweight implementation of common and useful functions) intended to be used as a basis for coreboot payloads. The benefits of linking a coreboot payload against libpayload are: * Payloads do not have to implement and maintain low-level ... [More] code for I/O, common functions, etc. * Payloads can be recompiled and deployed for CPU architectures supported by coreboot in the future. * The libpayload functions can be tested and scrutinized outside payload development. * Payloads themselves may be partly host-tested, e.g. against an emulation libpayload. [Less]

LibNUI

libNUI is a hardware accelerated GUI framework that makes it possible to build rich multi-platform applications based on 3D rendered dynamic layouts. Interfaces are built as a composition of widgets and behaviors, and the framework handles positioning, resizing, anchoring, and texture stretching. ... [More] Objects are connected with synchronous events and delegates for mono-threaded communication, or asynchronous notifications and message queues are used for multi-threaded applications. It also supports strings (including Unicode), paths, files, data streams, fonts, threads, critical sections, audio buffer rendering, and more. [Less]

coreinfo (coreboot payload)

coreinfo is a small informational payload for coreboot. Currently, it can display CPU information, PCI information, coreboot table information, and show an NVRAM dump.

ectool

ectool is a small utility that dumps the RAM of a laptop's Embedded/Environmental Controller (EC).

superiotool

Superiotool is a user-space utility which can - detect which Super I/O chip is soldered onto your mainboard, - at which configuration port it's located (usually 0x2e or 0x4e), and - dump all register contents of the Super I/O chip, together with the default values as per datasheet ... [More] (to make comparing the values easy). It is mainly used for coreboot development purposes (see coreboot.org for details on coreboot), but it may also be useful for other things. [Less]

redquad

Some private practical experience in lowlevel development. Includes os implementation, architecture issues, hardware drivers.
