**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Mar 15 02:59:56 2010 Mar 15 08:56:58 Hi all, does anyone already test angstrom on x86 ? I would deploy Angstrom-x11-gpe-image-glibc on CompactFlash for test on my platform, where I can find some howtos because google is not my friend for that;) Mar 15 09:06:23 guilig: I think you should read something about GRUB or LILO Mar 15 09:12:09 I deployed the root FS for my ARM board on a CF card by formatting it as ext2 and just unpacking the tar.bz2 image to that card Mar 15 09:52:09 guilig I'm testing angstrom on Geode LX (x86) now =) Mar 15 09:52:56 I'm installing GRUB bootloader to compact flash in Ubuntu 9.10 Mar 15 09:54:32 I've tested it on ARM too, it's using u-boot on ARM and GRUB on x86 Mar 15 10:04:46 fpga: did you install grub or grub2 ? I tried to test grub2 but it doesn't work Mar 15 10:05:02 grub, not grub2 :) Mar 15 15:30:18 I'm trying to get X to run (on a board other than beagle) using an unstable beagle image as base. Mar 15 15:31:18 I've commented out all modules (dri/dbe2/glx etc) from the xorg.conf (those depend on the kernel?), yet xorg still tries to load them. Mar 15 15:51:32 Also, I seem to be missing device nodes for my mmc device (listed in sysfs, though there's no device node in /dev..).. How come? Mar 15 15:52:43 sound slike udev isnt running Mar 15 15:52:52 It is Mar 15 15:53:10 well then it never hotplugged for some reason Mar 15 15:54:40 how would I go about debugging it? i built an oe-based rootfs with udev before, in which it just magically worked.. Mar 15 15:56:36 no idea, udev is a little black box to me Mar 15 16:00:37 The only other change I could think of is that I'm running some android patches on top of my kernel. I was hoping to chroot to my android partition though, in order to debug it. Pretty hard if I can't mount it, though. Mar 15 16:02:30 hmm, does android mess with that area? Mar 15 16:02:42 seems craziness is endemic in Android would Mar 15 16:02:44 world Mar 15 16:05:48 Well I doubt it does, just mentioning it just in case Mar 15 19:06:12 hmm, trying to boot Angstrom on a Collie... it keeps getting "Code: Bad PC Value" "fatal exception in interrupt" Mar 15 19:07:21 hmm, should I go with "stable", or "unstable"? Mar 15 19:07:36 I'm fine with "unstable" as long as it's not "so unstable it doesn't even boot" Mar 15 19:07:55 not many people using collie's anymore Mar 15 19:09:03 Last time I tried the thing was over a year ago... and at that time, I found the "collie" kernel image had approximately ZERO of the board-specific drivers (such as ucb1x00_ts) enabled. Mar 15 19:09:12 Drivers not working well, I can forgive. Drivers not being compiled at all? Fail. Mar 15 19:12:23 weird... this sd card is giving all sorts of read errors on my laptop. Mar 15 19:15:19 DanaG, patches welcome Mar 15 19:23:38 hmm, it also keeps trying to write to the root while it's still RO-mounted. Mar 15 19:27:22 http://www.mail-archive.com/angstrom-distro-devel@linuxtogo.org/msg03061.html Mar 15 19:27:22 ah Mar 15 19:33:39 okay, anyone know where I can get a more recent (later than January of last year) kexecboot? Mar 15 19:34:03 Build your own? Mar 15 19:36:24 weird... I had to copy the command-line from boot.cfg to kernel-cmdline. Mar 15 19:36:35 And now it panics somewhere different. Mar 15 19:40:20 "error -110 whilst initializing sd card" Mar 15 19:41:42 hmm, must be a dud sd card? Mar 15 19:45:23 DanaG: that would be my guess Mar 15 19:45:43 yeah, I get the same error on both my laptop and the collie. Mar 15 19:50:58 hmm, still panics -- it's in soc_common_pcmcia_skt_state Mar 15 19:54:25 hi Mar 15 19:58:44 ugh, I give up on Collie. Mar 15 19:59:00 oh, and something weird with http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/narcissus/ Mar 15 19:59:09 try clicking outside the white box. Everything disappears. Mar 15 20:28:40 hmm, does angstrom's beagleboard config have ext4 driver built-in? Mar 15 20:33:52 that change was commited recently Mar 15 21:06:28 [ 528.078063] VFS: Cannot open root device "mmcblk0p2" or unknown-block(179,2) Mar 15 21:06:34 ah, I made it ext2. Mar 15 21:06:42 do I still need rootfstype? Mar 15 21:08:17 ah yeah, it seems I do. Mar 15 21:08:46 hwclock: can't open '/dev/misc/rtc': No such file or directory Mar 15 22:05:58 Right, I grabbed some X modules, now X dies with "Floating point exception at address 0x57c" Mar 15 23:04:28 I have an angstrom system that boots, but doesn't run touch-screen calibration on start-up. How might I go about fixing this? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Mar 16 02:59:56 2010
