RE: [U-Boot-Users] Wind River visionProbe II
My suggestion: sell it on eBay as a spare. If someone is using a visionIce, it is nice to have backup hardware in case one goes <poof>.

Unfortunately, no. The logic in the device is SRAM-based and proprietary. If it were a cheap "bit-wiggler", there might be a possibility.

Wind River visionPROBE II I received one of these units for xscale in an eval kit. They offered a 30 day trial period for the software but we never took them up on it. We purchased the bdi2000 and have been happy. Can I do anything with this hardware without their software? Has anyone been able to use it to program flash? I would hate to throw it away, but it seems to be useless.
Thanks.

Unfortunately selling it on eBay would be a contravention of the software license. Don't do it!

IANAL, but I guess Ryan isn't bound by any software license, since he only has the VisionICE _hardware_ to sell...
Cheers Anders
BTW: Please do NOT quote the entire post when replying, ONLY the part(s) you're responding to - you'd improve readability and avoid clogging the list archives with quotes of quoted disclaimers and similar noise!

There is software running on the vICE/vProbe, so you don't have to be selling the debugger GUI (vClick) to break the non-transferrable part of the license.
Even if that were not the case, it would not be very fair on the unfortunate person who bought the probe. Since WR track every probe by it's serial number, the buyer would be unable to get a real license.
So they would have paid money for something they can not use.
Guess it is a moral decision then - do you sell something you know the buyer will be unable to use??
