**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Mar 16 02:59:58 2013 Mar 16 17:10:42 moin Mar 16 18:24:44 yay, I will give a seminer about OpenEmbedded in free software and linux days here Mar 16 18:24:54 I was officially selected :) Mar 16 18:25:38 and where is "here" exactly? Mar 16 18:31:52 nerdboy: oh, in Istanbul / Turkey Mar 16 18:32:23 the organization is held by Turkish Linux User Association and Istanbul Bilgi University Mar 16 18:32:25 http://www.lkd.org.tr/en Mar 16 18:32:39 any presentation materials are appreciated. I will also send an email to both oe and yocto lists Mar 16 18:33:50 i have some gentoo/embedded slides that are kinda old, but i could probably make some suggestions on your draft if you want Mar 16 18:34:22 as long as it's not in turkish... Mar 16 18:35:29 nerdboy: it will be, but I keep the wordcount in presentations small, so it would be not a problem Mar 16 18:35:33 I can easily translate them Mar 16 18:48:47 eren: what is the focus of your presentation? is it an intro thing? specifc to certain hardware, or what? Mar 16 18:49:42 nerdboy: it will be an intro, not many people know what OE is Mar 16 18:51:09 I'm planning to start from the definition of an embedded system, the traditional approach for building a linux image (compiling toolchains from scratch), using scratchbox or buildroot, the advantages/disadvantages of these tools, and introduction to OE Mar 16 18:51:42 OE part will include the problems that OE solves, the community, the advantages/disadvantages Mar 16 18:51:50 and I will lastly touch upon the layer structure Mar 16 18:52:00 nerdboy: how does it sound like? Mar 16 18:52:37 it's 45-minutes presentation, I guess these topics will fit into that time Mar 16 18:54:37 maybe keep the layer part brief and include an example, like building for a beagleboard or RPi Mar 16 18:57:39 nerdboy: yeah, I thought about it Mar 16 18:58:59 I guess getting RPi layer, editing configuration, and starting bitbake would be better to show how easy it is to produce an image Mar 16 18:59:38 of course, nobody will wait until it finishes :P Mar 16 18:59:50 don't forget to build a toolchain/sdk... Mar 16 19:00:49 actually I will finish the presentation after running bitbake. Showing how to get started would be enough for 45-min Mar 16 19:02:26 well, if you're going to talk about the manual approach, the sdk build is as easy as an image build Mar 16 19:04:49 so maybe the last two example commands would be "bitbake foo-image" and bitbake meta-toolchain-foo" to show how you've got the best of both worlds Mar 16 19:06:46 nerdboy: yeah **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Mar 17 02:59:59 2013
