**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Mar 29 02:59:58 2012 Mar 29 13:00:03 following the instructions on http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/building-angstrom Mar 29 13:00:56 However when I do MACHINE=beagleboard ./oebb.sh bitbake x11-image, I get a "Nothing PROVIDES x11-image". Any suggestions? Mar 29 13:33:14 somebody have try to build tslib? Mar 29 14:42:50 what the hell do these commands do? source ~/.oe/environment-oecore Mar 29 14:42:51 sudo apt-get install g++ diffstat texi2html texinfo cvs subversion chrpath help2man diffstat texi2html cvs texinfo subversion gawk Mar 29 14:42:56 bitbake nano Mar 29 14:42:58 ?? Mar 29 14:49:58 angs: set openembedded build environment, install required packages for debian like OS and build embedded package nano with OE? Mar 29 14:56:40 I was following an instruction here http://elinux.org/EBC_Exercise_01_Using_bitbake_for_Kernel_and_U-boot Mar 29 14:57:07 it makes what you say Mar 29 14:57:27 when it is installed, what is the good of it? Mar 29 14:57:48 it has been installing on ubuntu like 5 hours already Mar 29 15:07:42 5 hours seems long, what kind of machine? Mar 29 15:15:10 I run the commands on VM that runs ubuntu Mar 29 15:15:52 700 MB RAM is allocated, maybe that's why, but according to the instruction it takes 4 hours on a normal PC. Mar 29 15:16:21 I just wonder what is the use of this installation, was it needed? Mar 29 15:16:56 I just want to write some codes in C/C++ then run it on beaglebone that runs angstroms dist. Mar 29 15:30:25 Well OE needs to build a cross compiling environment first, then nano may depend on several other packages that need to be build using this cross compiling environment. That can take some time. Mar 29 15:33:34 it is the toolchain for angstroms dist, right? so I dont need to install http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/toolchains/? Mar 29 15:34:04 if I still install a toolchain from there, what is the difference between the cross compiler that is installing and the cross compiler that is on http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/toolchains/ Mar 29 15:36:50 If you just want to cross compile your C++ code, you only need the toolchain, I think, not the whole OE environment Mar 29 15:39:06 I also guess so, since it is installing, I will let it to finish. thank you for the answers Mar 29 16:19:48 what is wrong with the following command? Mar 29 16:19:48 root@beaglebone:~# opkg install bash Mar 29 16:19:48 Package bash (4.2-r2) installed in root is up to date. Mar 29 16:19:48 Collected errors: Mar 29 16:19:48 * pkg_get_installed_files: Failed to open //var/lib/opkg/info/perl-module-plugg able.pm.list: No such file or directory. Mar 29 17:31:21 how can I install samba package on angstroms? Mar 29 17:31:48 root@beaglebone:/# opkg update Mar 29 17:31:48 root@beaglebone:/# opkg install samba Mar 29 17:31:48 Unknown package 'samba'.

Mar 29 17:31:48 * opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package samba. Mar 29 17:31:53 what is wrong with the command? Mar 29 17:50:07 is samba available for angstrom dist.? Mar 29 18:00:02 http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/repo/ Mar 29 18:01:39 thanks for your answer Mar 29 18:01:43 I found the download link Mar 29 18:01:43 http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/repo/?pkgname=samba Mar 29 18:02:00 what is the command to download it to the embedded board then install it? Mar 29 18:10:40 I'm not sure why what you are doing did not work Mar 29 18:16:26 it is wierd Mar 29 18:16:43 I also dont know why and what to do :) Mar 29 18:17:30 do you know is there any command to download the file from http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/feeds/core/ipk/eglibc/armv7a/base/samba_3.5.6-r1_armv7a.ipk then install it on the embedded board (beaglebone?) Mar 29 18:18:29 wget maybe? Mar 29 18:19:01 yeah it is downloading Mar 29 18:19:12 after the download what should I type for the installation? Mar 29 18:19:19 opkg install samba? Mar 29 18:19:32 or something ./ ?? Mar 29 18:37:21 angs: opkg install filename.ipk Mar 29 18:47:01 no it did not work with that way Mar 29 18:47:11 oy sorry Mar 29 18:47:18 I was confused Mar 29 18:47:28 I already solved the problem thank you bluelighting Mar 29 19:00:34 angs: did you manage to figure out why you couldn't just install it with "opkg install samba" ? Mar 29 19:01:41 I tried it in the beginning but it did not work, I use beaglebone and I also see on the google that many people have the same problem, as default "opkg install samba" does not work Mar 29 19:01:44 I dont know why Mar 29 19:02:21 so I needed to install the samba and libtalloc2 then install them Mar 29 19:02:32 now it works I guess Mar 29 19:03:05 do you use netbeans? Mar 29 19:06:32 no, haven't even seen it since I was at university over 10 years ago Mar 29 19:38:14 hello Mar 29 19:39:58 where does bitbake keep md5 and sha summs to check utilities integrity? Mar 29 19:40:47 i download binutility, but bitbake cant compile it cos it has different md5 sum Mar 29 20:22:09 ive got misstake - ERROR: The checksums for "/home/gdane/stuff/sources/binutils-2.20.1.tar.bz2" did not match. Mar 29 20:22:10 MD5: expected "9cdfb9d6ec0578c166d3beae5e15c4e5", got "2b9dc8f2b7dbd5ec5992c6e29de0b764" Mar 29 20:22:10 SHA256: expected "228b84722d87e88e7fdd36869e590e649ab523a0800a7d53df906498afe6f6f8", got "71d37c96451333c5c0b84b170169fdcb138bbb27397dc06281905d9717c8ed64 Mar 29 20:22:55 so that is why i need to know how to change md5 and sha256 to fetch binutils Mar 29 21:01:33 try removing the downloaded fiels and let the fetcher redownload Mar 29 21:01:43 or fetch manually and verify the checksums Mar 29 22:32:19 i tried to do it, but it didnt work Mar 29 22:56:32 https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/beagleboard/C7UjcKIdr88 Mar 29 23:14:17 what is the command to build then run a C file on angstrom?? Mar 29 23:18:26 angs: same as any other Linux system: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/compiling-c-program-and-creating-executable-file/ Mar 29 23:19:07 thanks Mar 29 23:20:53 what webpage can I upload a C code then I can download the c file by wget command on the beaglebone? Mar 29 23:21:33 I mean when I upload/paste the code, I would like to have a web link has .c extension Mar 29 23:23:42 just use scp to copy the file from your machine to the beaglebone... Mar 29 23:24:06 thank you Mar 29 23:30:05 I am using netbeans as IDE and I wrote a C program and netbeans is able to send C program to the beaglebone through ssh and use compiler on the beaglebone. Of course beaglebone runs angstroms dist. anyway. Mar 29 23:30:19 local path is C:\Users\X\Documents\NetBeansProjects\bone/ Mar 29 23:30:27 remote path is / Mar 29 23:30:41 when the code is built I get the following erros: Mar 29 23:30:52 make: Makefile: No such file or directory Mar 29 23:30:52 make: *** No rule to make target `Makefile'. Stop. Mar 29 23:30:52 BUILD FAILED (exit value 2, total time: 451ms) Mar 29 23:31:16 inside the boned directory, nbproject\private directories exists, but netbean does not allow me to select these subdirectories as the local path Mar 29 23:32:10 under the bone directory: Makefile main.c files and nbproject directory exist Mar 29 23:32:52 what path do I define wrong? Mar 29 23:33:14 what should I do to fix it? Mar 29 23:34:21 I'm sorry, I think you probably need to be asking these questions in a channel where there are people who know about netbeans Mar 29 23:34:36 how can i patch fakeroot or other soft by using bitbake? Mar 29 23:34:39 they do not response Mar 29 23:34:51 bitbake patch /path_to_folder? Mar 29 23:35:04 I think the problem is that I define the path wrong Mar 29 23:35:29 it should be fine to copy a file on / directory on beaglebone, right? Mar 29 23:35:33 gdane: add the patch to the recipe for the software Mar 29 23:35:37 angs: sure Mar 29 23:35:41 or should it be under /usr/bin ? Mar 29 23:35:58 and it will make patch before compiling? Mar 29 23:36:38 gdane: add the patch filename to SRC_URI as in file://patchfile.patch Mar 29 23:37:02 gdane: it needs to be such that it applies with -p1, or else you need to put ;pnum=X on the end of that Mar 29 23:37:36 and then just make sure that the patch file appears in a "files" subdirectory next to where the recipe is Mar 29 23:40:37 where do i have to add SRC_URI? Mar 29 23:40:57 is it a command or i have to open bitbake conf? Mar 29 23:41:49 gdane: everything that gets built by bitbake is built from a recipe Mar 29 23:41:54 gdane: (.bb file) Mar 29 23:41:59 ahh ok Mar 29 23:42:07 gdane: so you need to find the recipe for whatever you wish to patch Mar 29 23:42:21 ok, i think i got it. Mar 29 23:42:28 bluelightning: can you take a look this simple code http://codepad.org/WYju5ulX Mar 29 23:42:38 what is wrong with the assignment on the line 16? Mar 29 23:43:21 angs: it should be == NULL at the end, not = NULL Mar 29 23:43:28 = is assignment, == is equality Mar 29 23:43:47 ah Mar 29 23:43:48 thanks Mar 29 23:43:59 how about the line 18? Mar 29 23:44:08 is it because of the header files? Mar 29 23:44:22 I saw one example that use exit function with the same header files Mar 29 23:45:02 it was because of the line16 Mar 29 23:45:04 thank you Mar 29 23:45:06 :) Mar 29 23:45:56 I think you are missing #include Mar 29 23:46:02 for exit() Mar 29 23:46:51 aw yeah right Mar 29 23:46:59 thank you very much Mar 29 23:47:14 what is the best site to find patches to compiling amgstrom? Mar 29 23:47:33 google.com? :) Mar 29 23:51:02 when I run the the program with ./ command, angstrom stores the files on sysfs right? it means that when bealgebone boots, the program is erased. how can I make the program permanently work on the angstrom? Mar 29 23:54:56 gdane: what patches do you think you need? Mar 29 23:55:24 patches to fix md5 and sha256 sum mismatches Mar 29 23:56:22 gdane: I don't think you're going to find any of those... if they existed they would have been applied already Mar 29 23:56:57 i found patches to solve such problems with binutils and fakeroot Mar 29 23:57:15 right, so this is a different question than the one I answered Mar 29 23:57:31 they are exist Mar 29 23:57:41 such patches would be applied directly to the metadata Mar 29 23:57:50 not sure if they will help Mar 29 23:58:06 will see it soon **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Mar 30 02:59:58 2012
