**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Feb 28 02:59:58 2009 Feb 28 14:57:49 hi all Feb 28 14:58:25 someone can clear me some doubt of openembedded and angstrom? Feb 28 14:58:35 if I want to port angstrom to a new architecture(mips),after setting up a new machine will I have to change the "recipes" of each package,or they are generic? Feb 28 14:59:10 the docs explain little to none on what to do to make a new port Feb 28 14:59:40 the recipes are generic Feb 28 14:59:50 most of the effort involves the kernel recipe Feb 28 14:59:55 look in conf/machine Feb 28 15:00:33 i had a look at it Feb 28 15:00:41 but i was not sure about what after Feb 28 15:00:58 so after setting up the kernel recipe everything will build smoothly? Feb 28 15:01:04 well Feb 28 15:01:08 we hope so :) Feb 28 15:01:13 hehe Feb 28 15:01:44 the kernel recipe is basically that part where you set the diff from the vanilla kernel? Feb 28 15:02:01 yeah Feb 28 15:02:15 looks at the linux_2.6.x recipes Feb 28 15:02:26 try to adapt one of those first Feb 28 15:02:40 we are trying to avoid recipe proliferation Feb 28 15:02:46 i saw some recipes are very long Feb 28 15:02:53 but other are really small Feb 28 15:03:18 this is what you mean?they are not reusing the existing recipes Feb 28 15:04:42 we could reduce the number of recipes fairly easily :) Feb 28 15:05:00 start from one of the linux_ recipes, before deciding you are too special :) Feb 28 15:05:02 bbl Feb 28 15:05:18 yeah,i read that part on the wiki :D Feb 28 15:05:38 the less work the better,i don't care about being special.better be normal and work less haha Feb 28 17:51:13 where do I get an explanation of the machine conf settings? Feb 28 17:52:57 and I don't understand why some of the existing machine conf set many variables while others set just a few.For example screen resolution is set only by few conf **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Mar 01 02:59:57 2009
