Updates on GitHub

Juan Vuletich-4
Hi Folks,

I've just commited to GitHub. Biggest news is a new OpenCL package,
originally for Squeak by Josh Gargus. Thanks Josh!

Within some misc fixes and enhancements, there is cool stuff by Ken,
Duncan, Dan and Masashi. Thank you all folks!

Cheers,
Juan Vuletich

FYI, The OpenCL unit tests, Blur and JuliaSet examples work on a SAMSUNG ARM Chromebook.

Apple Copy Benchmark reports VM lacks AndreasSystemProfiler prims.

Deformation Grid Example reports: 'failed to enqueue kernel for execution'

Let me know if there is anything else you want me to poke.  ;^)

Cheers,

Thanks Ken. It is nice to know it works on the Chromebook! Is it running
Chrome OS? Which VM?

AndreasSystemProfiler prims are just for that, profiling. No direct
relation with OpenCL. Deformation Grid Example doesn't work (yet) on my
machines either! This is pretty early stuff.

If you (or anybody) has interest in learning OpenCL, it is there for you
to play with. OpenCL is extremely powerful, and using it from Cuis is
surprisingly simple. I mean, it is quite free from extra complexity,
such as trouble to get tools setup, and examples running. Programming in
OpenCL is far from trivial, although the programming model is quite good
and well thought.

Cheers,
Juan Vuletich

Same as Cuis: Ubuntu trusty via Crouton.

>> uname -a
Linux localhost 3.8.11 #1 SMP Mon Aug 31 19:45:33 PDT 2015 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux

Note that the OpenCL/OpenGLES driver mods need to be loaded:
