**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Mar 16 02:59:56 2008 Mar 16 03:06:50 hillct: Are you not actually retrieving a tarball then? Mar 16 03:07:45 checking out SVN Mar 16 03:07:54 via https Mar 16 03:07:59 which failed with vert problem Mar 16 03:08:09 then tried checkout via http Mar 16 03:08:14 which fails with no clear error Mar 16 03:09:24 so the issue aparently isn't limited to the cert Mar 16 03:09:26 Did you supply a valid version number? Mar 16 03:09:41 checking out the most recent version Mar 16 03:10:34 That stuff is murky brown magic to me, I'm afraid. #OE might be the best place for that one. Mar 16 03:10:54 yeah Mar 16 03:10:58 that's my next move Mar 16 03:11:09 the SRC URL is: svn://svn.callweaver.org/callweaver/branches/rel;module=1.2;proto=http Mar 16 03:11:48 I think that until you can fetch that without prompts outside of bitbake, you'll not get it working inside bitbake either. Mar 16 03:12:00 Can you do something with a .rc file for svn or wget? Mar 16 03:13:53 possibly Mar 16 03:14:25 does it use the rc file for the user from which bitbake is run, or does it stash it's own RC file somewhere special? Mar 16 03:20:27 mwester: Good sign.. build booted correctly.. Now the nc test... Mar 16 03:40:13 mwester, rwhitby: Same thing with refresh build: http://pastebin.ca/944487 :( Mar 16 03:40:21 let me know if you can think of anything as I'm tight for time and might have to use a portable instead... (power-suckers) Mar 16 03:46:57 VoodooZ: can you describe the network connection. Also, can you pastebin the output from your dmesg? Any other software packages installed? Mar 16 03:56:09 100Mbps switch between the slug and PC.. I'm trying with pure RAM load (turnup) ... Mar 16 03:57:19 mwester: same thing with ram boot... Mar 16 03:59:56 dmesg? Mar 16 04:00:03 (pre-crash of course) Mar 16 04:01:20 coming up... Mar 16 04:01:28 http://pastebin.ca/944505 Mar 16 04:02:13 I'll have to take the ethernet switch out of the equation next... Mar 16 04:04:38 Try taking the memory stick out first Mar 16 04:04:50 Copy the file to /var/tmp, then nc it from there? Mar 16 04:05:18 yep Mar 16 04:05:24 will do that right away. Mar 16 04:09:51 nope. same thing.. Mar 16 04:10:05 Wow. Mar 16 04:10:08 would the fact that I no longer have and rtc be related? Mar 16 04:10:16 Er, perhaps. Mar 16 04:10:20 How do you know? Mar 16 04:10:30 I burnt all my I/O pins used by the s/w I2C a long time ago... Mar 16 04:10:40 Ouch. Mar 16 04:11:05 I was experimenting with accessing my robots I2C devices directly from the slug... worked but slow.. and risky.. :) Mar 16 04:11:20 now I use a homebrew USB-2-I2C module.. Mar 16 04:11:52 At least I feel better it's not related to slugos.. Mar 16 04:11:56 Well, I've tried to duplicate it to no avail. It would be good if at least on other person would try it, before we conclude that your hardware may be at issue. It could be that the driver is in some way dependent on the clock. Mar 16 04:12:07 But I find that odd. Mar 16 04:12:53 ok. Thanks for all your time anyways. I'll try one last thing with direct ethernet cable between 2 hosts and then it's bedtime... Mar 16 04:19:51 guess what? with a direct ethernet connection between a portable and the slug the file gets transfered w/o problem!!! wow! Mar 16 04:20:09 All this f'n trouble because of a lousy switch! Mar 16 04:20:48 Still, no switch should crash the device, that's wrong too! Mar 16 04:21:02 It is cheap... it's an "Addtron technology"! :) Mar 16 04:21:05 yep Mar 16 04:21:15 I'll swap it with my other one to see... Mar 16 04:21:48 But unless it's blasting 100 volts up the wire, the driver should shut down rather than panic the kernel. I'm still going to consider it a bug... Mar 16 04:22:26 yep. it is mind blowingly odd. Mar 16 04:22:59 trying with another (cheap) switch... Mar 16 04:24:44 the only other issue I could think of it the fact that the switch (bad one) uplinks to a gige switch in the network closet... Mar 16 04:25:23 but considering the robot (slug) and my PC are in the same room and attached to the same switch it shouldn't reach the gige port... Mar 16 04:26:20 works great with my the other cheap switch... I guess I'll just stop using the addtron one then. Mar 16 04:26:31 That's an acceptable solution to me.. Mar 16 04:26:33 True. I'd have to reflash one of them to get it on the gigE switch, but I also have a multi-layer switch setup. Mar 16 04:27:01 Ok, then. Glad you can still use the device! Mar 16 04:27:24 thanks for your patience.. and I hope I didn't take you away from more important stuff for too long... Mar 16 04:28:57 :) NP - this is important stuff, if there are problems with the new network drivers we need to track them down as that's the only way the little thing can talk to the world... Mar 16 04:30:20 yep Mar 16 04:32:35 yep. works great now. I tried it from my PC and laptop just to make sure. I can now proceed with the actual robot coding. Good night.. Mar 16 04:56:33 mwester: having given up and manually created targalls and hashes for the SVN checkouts, things seem to be functioning, although this is not really a reasonable thing to do long term Mar 16 04:56:43 obviously Mar 16 04:57:34 I really don't know how or if OE handles svn sites that don't allow http checkouts. You'll just have to work with the OE folks to figure that out, I think. Mar 16 04:59:37 yah. Waiting on word from the callweaver SVN admind Mar 16 04:59:53 in any case, I have another 130 depencency packages to build in my toolchain Mar 16 05:00:00 yikes Mar 16 05:00:16 remember, I'm starting from scratch here Mar 16 05:00:41 the monotone cache rebuild took 20 hours, and the toolchain build has taken 12 so far Mar 16 05:01:19 hillct: the db for your monotone version wasn't available at http://www.openembedded.org/snapshots/ ? Mar 16 05:02:22 * hillct bashed head against wall Mar 16 05:02:42 didn't realize they maintained prepared DBs for each version Mar 16 05:02:50 one of these days I should update the master makefile to get those automatically Mar 16 05:02:57 heh Mar 16 05:03:39 yeah, that would be handy Mar 16 05:05:32 speaking of which Mar 16 05:07:03 I guess there's a single setup-env target, so what someone (I) should do is add a distro-specific post-setup-env target that ads the two lines we were talking about yesterday Mar 16 05:51:13 ok, done the change for downloading the snapshot. Mar 16 06:17:47 well, next problem is one I'd encountered originally when I first built the recipe for OpenPBX Mar 16 06:18:25 the build script depends on libtoolize which should be part of autotools-native Mar 16 06:18:53 I have no idea what the solution was the first time Mar 16 06:19:09 someone here suggested one step or another then it suddenly worked Mar 16 06:19:26 it seemed to relate to a faulty build of something or other. I forget Mar 16 06:21:58 hoping I have it in IRC logs... Mar 16 06:25:34 here we go Mar 16 06:25:55 the issue is a faulty libtool-native recipe for slugos Mar 16 06:26:09 strange though, thought that got fixed LONG ago Mar 16 06:26:42 not sure how the broken one made it's way back into the 4.8-beta package tree Mar 16 06:38:46 hmm Mar 16 06:38:54 I may have been mistaken Mar 16 06:38:57 testing... Mar 16 06:41:55 it may have been simply due to a missing dependency in the recipe. Mar 16 06:47:40 nope. it's the re-emergence of the libtool problem Mar 16 06:47:45 damnit Mar 16 07:37:04 where can I compare package recipes for 3.10-beta and those for 4.8-beta? Mar 16 07:43:10 http://svn.nslu2-linux.org/svnroot/slugos Mar 16 07:53:15 ah. thanks. I knew I saw reference to an SVN server somewhere in the setup... Mar 16 08:00:45 rwhitby: yup. Tat's the issue right there. Compare do_stage here: Mar 16 08:00:48 http://svn.nslu2-linux.org/svnroot/slugos/releases/slugos-3.10-beta/openembedded/packages/libtool/libtool-native_1.5.10.bb Mar 16 08:00:54 to the version here: Mar 16 08:01:19 http://svn.nslu2-linux.org/svnroot/slugos/releases/slugos-4.8-beta/openembedded/packages/libtool/libtool-native_1.5.10.bb Mar 16 08:01:49 the 3.10 version appears to be the correct one Mar 16 08:06:39 what's the problem exactly? Mar 16 08:07:06 do_stage needs to properly populate /share/libtool/libltdl Mar 16 08:07:18 the 4.8 version isn't doing that Mar 16 08:08:11 I'm confirming this right now... Mar 16 08:08:32 if this build completes successfully then that's it. Mar 16 08:09:30 ok, can you raise a bugzilla on OE? Mar 16 08:09:52 as soon as I've confirmed the solution Mar 16 08:10:21 well, that and gotten some sleep. I'm having a terrible time typing at the moment :) Mar 16 08:14:37 damn. there appears to be more to it than that... Mar 16 08:14:55 oh well, I'll fight with this more tomorrow Mar 16 08:15:00 later... Mar 16 08:15:03 ok Mar 16 08:26:33 Progress! Mar 16 08:26:48 heh. I couldn't put this down just yet... Mar 16 08:27:04 the libtool problem was one of two issues Mar 16 08:27:27 the other was a dependency package that needed updating Mar 16 09:05:53 it appears, the source tarball of debian fakeroot 1.8.3 is no longer available from any of the mirrors. Time to move slugos to 1.9.3 I guess, although it looks like OS is only up to 1.9.1 Mar 16 09:20:43 03rwhitby * r7983 10optware/trunk/ (6 files in 2 dirs): perltgd: utility for managing epg and timers for Topfield PVRs Mar 16 09:21:30 hillct: have you checked sources.nslu2-linux.org/sources? Mar 16 09:22:11 nope, though I thought bitbake checked there automatically Mar 16 09:22:42 I found 1.8.3 source tarball at http://ftp.thaios.net/debian/pool/main/f/fakeroot/ Mar 16 09:22:52 just took a while Mar 16 10:44:36 03rwhitby * r7984 10optware/trunk/sources/perltgd/ (7 files): perltgd: Fixes based on initial testing Mar 16 10:44:50 03rwhitby * r7985 10optware/trunk/make/perltgd.mk: perltgd: Fixes based on initial testing Mar 16 12:23:49 Hey. I'm reinstalling my NSLU2 with Debian atm. Mar 16 12:24:05 Any ideas on how to tune my USB thumbdrive for high speed? Mar 16 12:24:28 i.e. turn off any unwanted things or removing any things that will cause lots of writes. Or something. Mar 16 13:16:12 I'm in the NSLU2 Debian installer menu, how can I configure EXT2? I only see EXT3. :( Mar 16 13:39:04 Hm. I guess I'm gonna make use of the 2 USB ports the slug has... 1x 256 MB thumbdrive for swap, 1x 4 GB thumbdrive for OS. Mar 16 14:55:10 l0c4lh0st: you don't need to explicitly enable ext2. Just format the drives without a journal Mar 16 14:55:19 and voila, you have ext2 Mar 16 14:56:04 using a flash drive for swap is less than optimal Mar 16 14:56:19 How would I format it without journal? Mar 16 14:56:26 I can only choose ext3, nothing more nothing less Mar 16 14:56:37 mke2fs /dev/sda1 Mar 16 14:56:39 vs Mar 16 14:56:47 mke2fs -j /dev/sda1 Mar 16 14:56:51 "Creating ext3 file system for / in partition #1 of SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda)..." Mar 16 14:57:10 using whih command? Mar 16 14:57:16 er using which command? Mar 16 14:57:29 Dunno. Debian installer. Mar 16 14:57:40 so, do it by hand Mar 16 14:57:47 How? Mar 16 14:57:49 or Mar 16 14:58:05 delete the journal inode Mar 16 14:58:08 after the fact Mar 16 14:58:19 yeah, that'd be the preferred method, I guess Mar 16 14:58:38 that'd let you go ahead with the debian installer, then switch to ext2 later Mar 16 14:58:54 why on earth would you want to disable the journal anyway? Mar 16 14:58:54 :S Mar 16 14:58:58 Why not? Mar 16 14:59:03 It's not like I need it. Mar 16 14:59:11 ok Mar 16 14:59:17 good enough as any reason Mar 16 14:59:27 so Mar 16 14:59:35 after you've completed the installation Mar 16 14:59:44 Well, the thing is still formatting. Mar 16 14:59:58 take the drives, plug them into your laptio and execure the command... Mar 16 15:00:06 It's at 33%, it was at 33% an hour ago too. Mar 16 15:01:28 when you're ready to switch from ext2 to ext2, you can do so with the following command: Mar 16 15:01:31 tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/sdb1 Mar 16 15:01:40 then you'd have an ext2 partition Mar 16 15:04:08 oh and rewrite the partition table using fdisk Mar 16 15:04:20 where you can just change the partition type Mar 16 15:04:29 It's still formatting. :/ Mar 16 15:04:37 yeah, after it's done Mar 16 15:04:38 Uh. Creating the ext3 file system. Mar 16 15:04:41 This takes so long. Mar 16 15:04:48 Does it always take this long? Mar 16 15:05:01 on a USB drive? depends Mar 16 15:05:09 Can I do it manually with fdisk? Mar 16 15:05:14 it takes no time at all if done by hand Mar 16 15:05:15 sure Mar 16 15:05:20 How do I do that? Mar 16 15:05:29 And how do I abort what it's doing now? Mar 16 15:05:34 Just turn off the NSLU2? Mar 16 15:06:02 how long have you been a user of Linux? With what other distributions are you familiar? Mar 16 15:06:14 I'm familiair with Debian. Mar 16 15:06:30 I'm always disturbed by people who rely on installers Mar 16 15:06:32 I have done this before. But I remember I had no trouble at all setting up the partitions. Mar 16 15:06:42 I also remember I did it another way. Not with the installer. Mar 16 15:06:45 Just can't remember what I did. Mar 16 15:06:57 the docs are on the Wiki Mar 16 15:07:28 esentially, once you've exited the installer (I've never used it, but try ctrl-C) Mar 16 15:07:39 Doesn't respond Mar 16 15:08:09 once you've exited th installer, follow the docs on the Wiki to install slugos, then apply the debian packages Mar 16 15:08:15 I can't exit it Mar 16 15:08:24 wait Mar 16 15:08:25 :/ I'm not gonna install SLugOS Mar 16 15:08:28 I'm installing Debian Mar 16 15:08:46 you install slugos then apply debian on top of it. That's what the debian instalelr does Mar 16 15:08:58 but surely you already know that Mar 16 15:09:10 I'm gonna unplug the power Mar 16 15:09:20 whatever you see fit Mar 16 15:09:28 good luck Mar 16 15:09:46 The NSLU2 is really warm Mar 16 15:09:51 But now it's booting again. Mar 16 15:12:59 Ah. Now I'm in the shell. Mar 16 15:13:03 That should make things easier. Mar 16 15:13:24 Uhm. Or not. No USB drivers. Mar 16 15:13:25 lol. Mar 16 15:13:31 and no fdisk Mar 16 15:13:41 Hell, how am I gonna install Debian now :/ Mar 16 15:15:08 Please help me? Mar 16 15:20:20 hillct Mar 16 15:24:51 hillct are you there Mar 16 15:27:30 eating breakfast Mar 16 15:27:39 can read but not type at the moment Mar 16 15:28:28 what you need to do is flash the debian /slugosLE firmware Mar 16 15:28:33 then use the turnup procedure Mar 16 15:31:12 I used this one. http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/install.html Is that not OK? Mar 16 15:34:32 hillct you there? Mar 16 15:34:52 use the upslug2 procedure to reflash and get back to a working image Mar 16 15:35:02 What's that??? Mar 16 15:35:20 scroll half way down the page you indicated Mar 16 15:35:56 I already did that. Mar 16 15:36:12 I already get the Debian installer screen. Mar 16 15:36:22 so? Mar 16 15:36:26 exit the installer Mar 16 15:36:37 use fdisk to prepare the partitions Mar 16 15:36:43 I can't use fdisk Mar 16 15:36:51 why not? Mar 16 15:36:52 ~ # fdisk Mar 16 15:36:52 /bin/sh: fdisk: not found Mar 16 15:37:05 then you need to select an image which includes fdisk Mar 16 15:37:17 did you use the official debian image? Mar 16 15:37:30 No, I used the one with the ixp4xx drivers Mar 16 15:37:35 use the slugos/LE image and apply the debian image on top of it Mar 16 15:38:13 er debian packages Mar 16 15:38:26 apply the debian packages on top of the slugos/LE image Mar 16 15:38:26 But I want to install Debian, not SlugOS. Mar 16 15:38:37 you're not listening Mar 16 15:38:51 I had already installed Debian, but I'm now reinstalling it and it doesn't work anymore. It's so strange. Mar 16 15:38:52 debian is built upon slugos/LE Mar 16 15:39:08 Maybe my NSLU2 is broken? Mar 16 15:39:21 use the slugos/LE image, then apply the debian image Mar 16 15:39:29 er packages Mar 16 15:39:40 But I don't want SlugOS Mar 16 15:39:55 this is the last time I'm going to say this Mar 16 15:40:15 debian is simply slugos/LE with debian packages on top Mar 16 15:40:32 so follow the procedure I recommend, to install debian, or do it yourself Mar 16 15:40:44 "Debian now fully supports the NSLU2 using debian-installer (this is the setup known as Debian/NSLU2). This is the current recommended way to install Debian on a slug, instead of using SlugOS/LE." Mar 16 15:40:45 good luck to you Mar 16 15:41:00 sure. that's one method Mar 16 15:41:30 if you prefer that method, then you can use the debian installer, but if you're not happy with waiting for it to format the drives, then you can use the alternative manual method Mar 16 15:41:34 it's your call Mar 16 15:41:50 Well. The problem is, it's taking very very long to do the formatting. Mar 16 15:42:05 It doesn't show any progressbar or something, just "33%". Mar 16 15:42:26 Does that mean it's actually formatting (the lights on my thumbdrive don't blink or anything), or doesit just hang? Mar 16 15:42:44 hard to say Mar 16 15:42:58 Is it possible to turn on some kind of debug mode? Mar 16 15:43:15 I'd just let it run fr a few hours, and come back to it, before concluding that your slug or thumbdrive is broken Mar 16 15:43:27 oh OK Mar 16 15:43:36 I'll enter the installation again Mar 16 15:43:45 yeah, just let it do it's thing Mar 16 15:43:46 and let it run for 7 more hours Mar 16 15:43:52 heh Mar 16 15:43:58 From now (16:43) to 24:00 Mar 16 15:44:04 are you trying to partition both drives at the same time? Mar 16 15:44:09 I guess that should be enough Mar 16 15:44:10 Yes. Mar 16 15:44:13 oh Mar 16 15:44:19 I'd avoid that Mar 16 15:44:24 skip partitioning swap Mar 16 15:44:29 so that secondarily by hand Mar 16 15:44:31 I have a 4 GB thumbdrive which needs ext3. And a 256 MB thumbdrive that needs to be swap. Mar 16 15:44:45 doesn't 'need' to be swap Mar 16 15:44:48 skip it Mar 16 15:44:54 Nah. I want to make it swap. Mar 16 15:44:58 add swap alater Mar 16 15:45:00 Oh. I could do that later. Mar 16 15:45:07 Yeah, I'll disconnect that drive. Mar 16 15:45:16 point is, I don't know if the installer plays nice with two srives connected at the same time Mar 16 15:45:42 er drives Mar 16 15:45:56 You seem to be making quite a lot spelling mistakes :P Mar 16 15:47:11 yeah Mar 16 15:47:18 I blame it on the lousy keyboard Mar 16 15:47:42 I was just thinking "I'm not drunk, what the hell is going on here?" Mar 16 15:48:15 at least the S is near the D key Mar 16 15:48:44 not as bad an error as some Mar 16 15:48:48 Hm. I loaded some more modules than the original guide told me. Maybe that'll make some difference. Mar 16 15:49:11 yah, efore you assume sometihhng is broken, try folloing the guide exactly Mar 16 15:49:16 er before Mar 16 15:49:17 heh Mar 16 15:49:20 lol Mar 16 15:49:22 here we go again... Mar 16 15:51:06 Won't the installer crash when I don't use any swap? Mar 16 15:51:28 I can imagine the NSLU2 would easily run out of memory. Mar 16 15:52:19 Hm. Oops, now it's erasing data... Wrong option chosen Mar 16 15:52:29 And ctrl+c doesn't work. Pft. Mar 16 15:52:44 This takes so damn long... Mar 16 15:53:19 I don't know the story with debian, but I have one slug that uses no swap Mar 16 15:53:25 the other that does use swap Mar 16 15:53:37 the first one is my file server Mar 16 15:53:40 * l0c4lh0st unplugs power again Mar 16 15:53:49 the second is my VOIP switch Mar 16 15:54:18 the only reason it needs swap is for recording long voicemail messages Mar 16 15:54:25 lol Mar 16 15:54:51 I'm gonna need the swap on this one.. It's gonna run Lighttpd, PHP and MySQL Mar 16 15:55:06 Well, maybe it can do without the swap, but better safe than sorry Mar 16 15:56:27 depends how mysqld is configured Mar 16 15:56:32 it'd work either way Mar 16 15:57:09 Running setup again Mar 16 15:57:19 Man... That's at least the 10th time I saw this screen today. Mar 16 15:57:43 heh Mar 16 15:57:50 I've had days like that Mar 16 15:58:29 Hm. I see a core-scsi module too Mar 16 15:58:46 I guess I'll load that too, Debian says my USB drive is SCSI. Mar 16 15:59:01 But why didn't you install Debian on your slugs? Mar 16 15:59:13 I love my slug, only because it runs Debian :D Mar 16 15:59:42 I don't need the overhead Mar 16 16:00:16 slugos is far more compact Mar 16 16:00:25 ah, k Mar 16 16:00:33 ad the ucLinux images are even better Mar 16 16:00:59 but I haven't gotten my voip software to run under the ucLinux image Mar 16 16:01:12 although I haven't tried very hard Mar 16 16:01:44 Ah. Maybe that's why it wouldn't let me create normal partitions. Now it asks if I want to make a Primary or Logical partition. Mar 16 16:01:51 I should choose Primary, right? Mar 16 16:02:37 Hm, Bootable flag should be on, I guess? Mar 16 16:03:14 I'll leave it off. Mar 16 16:03:24 I guess the slug has it's own booting thingie Mar 16 16:04:06 Creating ext3 file system for / in partition #1 of SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda)... Mar 16 16:04:10 Time for food, bbl :] Mar 16 16:04:14 Thanks for the help so far. Mar 16 16:23:28 how do I prevent ipkg from getting pkg from repo and use the ones I built locally? Mar 16 16:23:56 Because nobody will commit my linux-uvc package It seems to clash with videodev and v4l2 from package repo.. Mar 16 16:25:45 VoodooZ: did you add your package to a bugzilla report for oe? Mar 16 16:32:43 Ah. It's done. Now it's setting up the clock keke Mar 16 16:39:26 VoodooZ: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10263 (Does that pertain to your situation at all?) Mar 16 17:11:29 VoodooZ, I will upload the bb file into the oe bugzilla tracker Mar 16 17:14:11 VoodooZ: http://bugs.openembedded.net/show_bug.cgi?id=4086 Mar 16 17:25:42 mwester: nope. that's an unrelated issue.. Mar 16 17:25:48 osas: thanks mate. Mar 16 17:26:37 np Mar 16 17:26:44 although that bb file doesn't seem to fetch the latest svn copy automatically for some reason... Mar 16 17:27:17 because you already have the tarball in your downloads Mar 16 17:27:25 you need to specify a revision Mar 16 17:27:32 I seem to be having problems with my self-built uvcvideo module now which I didn't have before.. seem to be a version mismatch.. Mar 16 17:27:33 and then it will do it Mar 16 17:27:53 osas: but I want it to get the latest everytime... Mar 16 17:28:09 until there's a stable release of course... Mar 16 17:28:23 it doesn't work that way Mar 16 17:28:25 anyways, will change it once it's in the repo I guess... Mar 16 17:28:42 bbl... Mar 16 17:28:42 or, you will need to remove the tarball from the downloads directory Mar 16 18:09:56 I'm having problems with the newest release of the spandsp package. It'd be helpful to have another pair of eyes on it if someone here could take a look: http://www.pastebin.ca/945085 Mar 16 19:01:32 Hm. Now it hangs on "Configuring man-db..." Mar 16 19:01:37 65% Mar 16 19:02:04 It looks like the thing isn't doing anything. Mar 16 19:03:36 03oleo * r7986 10optware/trunk/make/sane-backends.mk: sane-backends: 1.0.18->1.0.19 (cvs 20080102->20080315) Mar 16 20:07:05 hillct: Just tried building spandsp under slugos and it built ok. didn't test it though.. "package spandsp-0.0.3+0.0.4pre16: completed" Mar 16 20:07:46 VoodooZ: yeah pre166 builds fine. pre18 doesn't Mar 16 20:07:50 at least for me Mar 16 20:08:21 seems to be an include path problem but I don't see where relevent paths have changed Mar 16 20:09:26 and now I'm having a libpath problem with Callweaver where I never have before Mar 16 20:10:51 probably a simple libpath arg that needs to go into OE_EXTRA_CONF but it's been a long time since I put these together and haven't been working with OE enough to remember really what I'm doing Mar 16 20:16:25 no idea. Just thought I'd try it for you. Mar 16 20:17:02 thanks. Mar 16 20:17:06 I'm having problems of my own right now.. I'm trying to force the install of my own kernel-module-videodev (and dependencies) and it won't let me... argghhh. Mar 16 20:17:16 * VoodooZ curses at ipkg Mar 16 20:19:30 I get: Multiple packages (kernel-module-videodev and kernel-module-videodev) providing same name marked HOLD or PREFER. Using latest. Mar 16 20:19:34 Package kernel-module-videodev md5sum mismatch. Either the ipkg or the package index are corrupt. Try 'ipkg update'. Mar 16 20:19:48 couldn't find much in term of ipkg docs.. Mar 16 20:20:31 you might download the package file you want to use and install it directly Mar 16 20:20:44 er from the local file Mar 16 20:23:43 the problem is that linux-uvc is not available from repo so I built it but it seems to have a different version to the videodev, v4l2-commoon,etc.. Mar 16 20:24:05 so I'm trying to install all of those from my build instead of the package repo... Mar 16 20:24:12 and ipkg won't let me... Mar 16 20:24:42 I'm looking for a way to shut it up and override it's "smarts".. Mar 16 20:25:21 VoodooZ: ipkg is too stupid to do that for you. Mar 16 20:25:26 hahaha Mar 16 20:25:37 Or am I the one that's too stupid?! ;) Mar 16 20:25:47 You'll have to find the dependency chain, and starting at the bottom, one by one you need to forcibly install your package. Mar 16 20:26:07 It's strange though as everything worked before I flashed the latest image... Mar 16 20:26:16 ouch. Mar 16 20:26:37 that or simple have somebody commit linux-uvc to OE for me so it shows up int he package repo. :) Mar 16 20:27:00 The problem is that it has no ability to handle versions; it knows only that the most recent is always better (!) and that it must install anything at all that might be required to permit it to install the highest version of the package under consideration. Mar 16 20:27:36 i see. Unless I'm handling the problem the wrong way.... Here's the initial error: Mar 16 20:27:36 VoodooZ: I'm afraid that committing that isn't so easy. Mar 16 20:29:35 http://www.pastebin.ca/945269 Mar 16 20:30:24 maybe someone knows the answer to my newest "PITA"... Mar 16 20:31:41 aside from finally figuring my ethernet switch wasted 2 weeks, I had a flat tire today. Great weekend.. :) Mar 16 20:32:04 VoodooZ: It looks to me like the module you built doesn't agree with your kernel. Mar 16 20:32:23 but it was built using OE... Mar 16 20:32:36 I guess I'll build it again... Mar 16 20:32:47 Did you install anything from the general feeds, then, or all locally? Mar 16 20:33:17 linux-uvc is the only thing I have to build myself... Mar 16 20:33:37 Ok, then it's not built from the same sources as the kernel you have installed. Mar 16 20:33:44 kernel-module-videodev, kernel-module-v4l2-common, kernel-module-ioctl32-compat are all form the repo Mar 16 20:34:06 that's why I wanted to force ipkg to use all the local ipks... Mar 16 20:34:13 Yes. Mar 16 20:34:19 Get rid of the feeds Mar 16 20:34:26 but the kernel shouldn't have changed that much from head in 1-2 days? Mar 16 20:34:44 in ipkg.conf? Mar 16 20:34:45 What makes you think that the modules in the feeds match the kernel from head? Mar 16 20:35:02 I guess I expected it to be configured somehow.. Mar 16 20:35:35 No such guarantee with things like kernel modules, I'm afraid. Mar 16 20:35:53 I set up a local feed to avoid this sort of issue. Mar 16 20:36:13
