**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed May 12 02:59:56 2010 May 12 09:52:32 hi May 12 11:55:47 hi, in the angstromd developer howto (http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/building-angstrom) they checktout to the stable/2009 version. Is this the latest? May 12 12:30:34 Hi ppl, i am new to angstrom and i wanted to port a Qt application to an angstrom based device (archos tablet) but i saw that the default qt package is qt 4.3.3, so i have to compile qt 4.6.x as well, should i get openembedded up and running to have a cross-compile toolchain? i am reading the wiki but i am a bit confused May 12 12:46:21 AlienPenguin: florian has built unstable with our overlay but he had to fix a few things and replace udev. I guess it could be easier to just set up the angstrom environment plus the openaos overlay and then build 4.6 manually by importing the necessary recipes and dependencies May 12 12:54:08 dm8tbr, great, can you point me at some docs on how to get familiar with all this? May 12 12:55:23 AlienPenguin: http://dev.openaos.org/wiki/Setting_up_OpenEmbedded - that should cover the part to get angstrom running with our overlay May 12 12:56:57 AlienPenguin: afterwards you'll have to look for the necessary bitbake recipes for 4.6.x or if you are more familiar with git i guess you could make them appear magically in the right places of the openempbedded/recipes folder selectively May 12 12:59:39 dm8tbr, ok, i am reading that wiki now (didnt know about openaos :( ) May 12 13:00:36 AlienPenguin: weren't you on the openAOS channel yesterday asking about qt4.6? May 12 13:01:58 dm8tbr, errrr no :) the target device (archos tablet) was chosen just yesterday night :) May 12 13:02:21 AlienPenguin: aah, ok :) funny coincidence then May 12 13:02:44 i wish it was me with a time machine: deadlines are coming! May 12 13:03:22 20:00:47< josef_> someone running QT4.6 libs or apps on archos 5 it? May 12 13:03:50 :) i hope i'll be answsering "yes" in a couple of days :) May 12 13:03:57 :) May 12 13:04:28 I guess you have an vague idea that compiling 4.6 will pull up most likely a dozen depencencies or more? May 12 13:05:27 dm8tbr, i kinda imagined that, since i've playing around with Qt for some years now :) i know that i might go and have a long walk after Qt compilation starts :) May 12 13:06:06 ok, just making sure I'm not sending you unwittingly in that minefield May 12 13:07:09 it's not the dependency/qt part that scares me, it is the cross-compilation/embedded part that i am not very well acquainted with (yet) :) May 12 13:09:24 my personal guess as to the further steps is (please someone correct me if I'm wrong!) May 12 13:09:52 look at the git tree for some more advanced branch like dev: http://git.openembedded.org/cgit.cgi/openembedded/tree/recipes/qt4 May 12 13:10:00 you might need to switch in the top right corner May 12 13:10:33 and either by means of git or manually get the right bitbake file, subdirectory and necessary include files May 12 13:11:36 and then try to bitbake the recipe. it will then start complaining which dependencies are not satisfied for building May 12 13:13:07 rinse and repeat May 12 13:54:38 dm8tbr, in the openaos wiki page there is a link to a blog(?) "developing for the Archos 5" where the procedure described is similar but different. It downloads a package from archos website but not the build/ subdir of OETREE from openpma's SVN May 12 13:54:49 do you have any advice on this? May 12 13:55:22 AlienPenguin: yes, as I've warned in the wiki. that page should be only used to determine the prerequisite packages you need to install to run OE May 12 13:56:13 AlienPenguin: there are numerous patches to the archos supplied initial source which are only in the openAOS svn May 12 13:57:11 ok, so i'll stick with openaos? since that includes already archos modifications? May 12 13:57:21 e.g. a kernel patch May 12 13:57:46 yes, that's what I can recommend. but then I'm the main person checking in at the moment :) May 12 14:04:49 dm8tbr, machine should be set to archos5it if it is a gen7 right? May 12 14:07:56 AlienPenguin: yes and the kernel to 2.6.27.10-omap... May 12 14:09:11 I haven't really built the extended-gpe-image recently. it might not really work that well. especially as archos-helper* is currently quite broken May 12 14:09:37 and isn't really aware of some of the new hardware functions May 12 14:10:34 dm8tbr, since the app i am targeting will be a fullscreen one (think of a slide-presenter) i think that x11-imge will more than enough for me May 12 14:11:11 then don't build the gpe image at all May 12 14:11:45 no i'll build x11-image and then go for qt (and deps) May 12 14:11:58 i am compiling the initramfs (for test) May 12 14:12:16 yes, that should work May 12 14:12:40 at least I've spent days of hard work on making it dual boot and support weird things May 12 14:12:56 if i want to use make -j i should put that in the local.conf of openaos since the one in openembedde does nto get used right? May 12 14:13:23 I think that's where I have it too, yes May 12 14:13:52 PARALLEL_MAKE = "-j8" May 12 14:13:52 BB_NUMBER_THREADS = "4" May 12 14:14:08 dual quad core? May 12 14:14:24 nah just like to keep my cpu really really busy May 12 14:14:29 ;) May 12 14:14:34 core2 duo May 12 14:23:10 dm8tbr, since for initramfs ir want to compile/patch 701 tasks... may i interrupt it now and add that parallel make switch? May 12 14:23:47 AlienPenguin: it will look ugly and you need to press ctrl-c a million times but sure May 12 14:23:59 what it's trying to do is build the whole toolchain first May 12 14:24:21 yeah, that's what i figured (and scared me :) ) May 12 14:24:59 I think I had only once a case where I just force cleaned a step to resolve a problem May 12 14:27:50 dm8tbr, warnings in the compilation phase should be reported? to whom? May 12 14:28:51 dm8tbr, warnings in the compilation phase should be reported? to whom? May 12 14:29:00 (sorry for the double post) May 12 14:29:04 AlienPenguin: I guess to the respective package maintainers. Only a small part will be openAOS most will be Anstrom I guess May 12 14:29:39 i got this: NOTE: Handling BitBake files: / (5834/6768) [86 %]__builtin__:8: DeprecationWarning: the sets module is deprecated May 12 14:29:58 hmm May 12 14:31:25 I think this could be related to bitbake vs. python May 12 15:07:53 dm8tbr, it seems to have finished but i got an error, it could not fetch the kernel: ERROR: '/home/arm/oe/build/openaos/recipes/linux/linux-omap-archos_2.6.27.10-omap1.bb' failed May 12 15:43:24 AlienPenguin: if the number of failed tasks is >0 then it stopped due to some error May 12 15:43:49 dm8tbr, nope seems it was unable to fetch it for some reason May 12 15:44:44 AlienPenguin: did it fail on kernel.org or the muru.com patch? May 12 15:46:11 NOTE: Running task 490 of 701 (ID: 133, /home/arm/oe/build/openembedded/recipes/glibc/glibc_2.6.1.bb, do_package_stage) May 12 15:46:11 NOTE: Missing checksum May 12 15:46:11 ERROR: linux-omap-archos-2.6.27.10-omap1: http://www.muru.com/linux/omap/patches/patch-2.6.27-omap1.bz2 has no entry in conf/checksums.ini, not checking URI May 12 15:46:11 ERROR: Error in executing: /home/arm/oe/build/openaos/recipes/linux/linux-omap-archos_2.6.27.10-omap1.bb May 12 15:46:50 Hi, I'm trying to build the kernel for the dm6446-evm machine and I'm getting a linker error: arm-none-linux-gnueabi-ld: no machine record defined and I subsequently get "undefined references to '__gnu_mcount_nc' has anyone seen this before? I've googled it but haven't come up with any solutions May 12 15:49:01 AlienPenguin: hmmm might be that I forgot to put that checksum in the checksums.ini May 12 15:50:43 meh, now I know why May 12 15:50:56 I misapplied an archos patch May 12 15:51:41 AlienPenguin: quick-fix put those three lines in the openaos/conf/checksums.ini file May 12 15:51:44 [http://www.muru.com/linux/omap/patches/patch-2.6.27-omap1.bz2] May 12 15:51:47 md5=4a3c56484b11438b0a911c432cae08bc May 12 15:51:49 sha256=2cfa3174db86acd9297d9ac641b299c7b8cb7ca6e0f2fb2243a4a5b523ea541c May 12 15:51:54 * dm8tbr needs to fix this in svn May 12 15:52:36 can i append them? or is there a specific order? May 12 15:52:45 yeah, random order is fine May 12 15:53:30 thanks for alerting me to that. I missed it when working on my commit May 12 15:53:56 fix seems to be fine, fetched good and patches are being applied May 12 15:54:43 you might have to do this procedure manually when you copy over the bitbake recipes from newer angstrom branches May 12 15:55:20 you then md5sum and sha256sum the file and add everything to the end of the checksums.ini May 12 15:55:58 you mean when i get the bb files for qt 4.6.x? May 12 15:56:02 unless you know your way around git and manage to make to cherry pick those things May 12 15:56:06 yes May 12 15:56:52 i am afraid i will have to do that manually, since i use svn regularly not git May 12 15:56:59 same here May 12 16:03:10 dm8tbr, can you tell me the git command to get the qt4 recipes dir from .dev branch? May 12 16:03:51 AlienPenguin: sorry, I now about as much git as you do :( May 12 16:04:12 dm8tbr, ok no prob :) May 12 16:05:07 dm8tbr, the bitbake failed... May 12 16:05:24 AlienPenguin: on which package? May 12 16:06:06 i am trying to figure it out... there was a lot of output... lots of lines like: | Lost field license, GPL ù May 12 16:06:51 usually at the end it should have something with ERROR May 12 16:07:10 NOTE: Task failed: /home/arm/oe/build/angstrom-dev/work/archos5it-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/initramfs-archos-image-1.0-r5/temp/log.do_rootfs.13383 May 12 16:07:11 ERROR: TaskFailed event exception, aborting May 12 16:07:11 ERROR: Build of /home/arm/oe/build/openaos/recipes/images/initramfs-archos-image.bb do_rootfs failed May 12 16:07:11 ERROR: Task 10 (/home/arm/oe/build/openaos/recipes/images/initramfs-archos-image.bb, do_rootfs) failed May 12 16:07:11 NOTE: Tasks Summary: Attempted 699 tasks of which 502 didn't need to be rerun and 1 failed.

May 12 16:08:43 I think you should consider pastebin for the future :) May 12 16:09:17 i know, sorry, i started with a few lines :) May 12 16:09:40 AlienPenguin: ah, I see, you attempted initramfs-archos-image.bb - that won't work for gen7. let me check the right one May 12 16:11:17 initramfs-archos-image-multiroot_2.0.bb May 12 16:11:34 hopefully it will be enough to just bitbake initramfs-archos-image-multiroot May 12 16:11:42 it should then grab the 2.0 recipe May 12 16:13:26 it cant find it May 12 16:13:35 however i'll try something simple like bc May 12 16:13:53 initramfs was just to check if bb env was ok as specified on the wiki :) May 12 16:18:15 well bc seems to have compiled :) May 12 16:21:42 then you should be quite prepared May 12 16:22:29 how will you debug? do you have an dock with serial console or are you using usb-ethernet? May 12 16:23:09 dm8tbr, debug what? my app? May 12 16:23:15 yeah May 12 16:24:01 i have usb-ethernet May 12 16:24:18 but basically i will do much of my code-testing on x86_64 May 12 16:24:36 ah ok May 12 16:24:51 and the app logs via network May 12 16:25:04 btw: you should take into account that the touchscreen has an quite specific output May 12 16:25:22 we have an quick-fix for the x11 tslib for now May 12 16:25:30 so.. if it starts (finger-crossed) it will be a good start May 12 16:25:41 it's in svn and on the wiki May 12 16:25:41 dm8tbr, what do you mean with "specific output"? May 12 16:26:52 http://dev.openaos.org/wiki/TouchScreenIntegration May 12 16:27:56 good to know! May 12 16:28:17 however the app present only a few (and big) buttons for user interaction May 12 16:29:00 it will be displaying lyric opera subtitles in various languages May 12 16:29:32 nice May 12 16:37:05 dm8tbr, sorry to be bothering you so much... i got (all?) the bb files for qt 4.6 but how do i tell bitbake to go for a specific version? May 12 16:37:56 if i use bitbake -n qt4-x11-free_4.6.2 (or 4.5.0 for what is worth) it says Nothing PROVIDES the package May 12 16:38:12 if i get rid of version it tries to build 4.5.0 May 12 16:38:29 bitbake -b qt4-x11-free_4.6.2.bb or whatever it's named May 12 16:39:20 it started... May 12 16:39:46 i think i might get comfortable :) May 12 17:00:04 oh look, here comes engadget. May 12 17:00:13 * dm8tbr braces openaos.org for impact May 12 17:56:22 dm8tbr, i think i found a bug in the qt-4.6.2.inc from git dev, there are two patches that should not be applied anymore. Where should i report it? May 12 17:57:20 AlienPenguin: talk to _koen_ or koen. he should know. May 12 18:08:12 dm8tbr, ok, when i see him around i'll tell him May 12 18:08:37 I think he's more often to be found in #beagle May 12 20:05:02 Hello, I am trying to bitbake openjdk-6-shark, and am getting an error related to LLVM. Wondering if anyone has any advice on the make: No such file or directory error I am getting. The full output: http://fpaste.org/aGvy/ **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu May 13 02:59:56 2010
