**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Mar 21 02:59:58 2012 Mar 21 06:37:15 http://www.ebay.com/itm/260978920665?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 probably as cheap as it gets eh? Mar 21 08:16:20 is there really no mailing list to discuss arm issues on? Mar 21 09:46:28 Riddell, there is launchpad Mar 21 09:47:12 lilstevie: mm I know, is there a part of launchpad to discuss arm issues? Mar 21 09:48:02 arm issues? Mar 21 09:48:13 normally it would be issues with x package Mar 21 09:48:18 for any supported arch Mar 21 09:48:39 well that's not the case I have and there are plenty of other instances where it won't be the case Mar 21 09:48:53 the existance of an ubuntu server arm list proves that Mar 21 09:48:56 so say you had an issue with chromium-browser you would comment against that Mar 21 09:49:03 I don't have an issue with a package Mar 21 09:49:30 what kind of issue is it? Mar 21 09:51:45 one with arm Mar 21 09:52:11 really I've tried debugging it on irc more than once before, now I need a mailing list Mar 21 09:52:21 ubuntu-server-arm lists appears to have no traffic Mar 21 09:52:55 two dysfunctional communities does not a functional community make :) Mar 21 09:53:31 I wonder why anyone bothered opening such a limited-scope mailing lsit Mar 21 10:07:28 suihkulokki: because of people like me who have questions about arm Mar 21 10:09:17 Riddell: seems like you have got off on the wrong foot today Mar 21 10:09:39 I was just wondering why ubuntu-server-arm rather than say ubuntu-arm Mar 21 10:10:05 suihkulokki: oh I've been battling arm for two or three weeks now :) Mar 21 10:10:18 suihkulokki: yes renaming it would be very sensible Mar 21 10:12:33 Riddell: meanwhile, I suspect the list doesn't have many readers so I guess your best bet (if indeed you can't pin your problem to a package) is to blog about it :P Mar 21 10:12:52 done that already :) Mar 21 10:13:14 oh Mar 21 15:01:05 GrueMaster: is there a recent "non-unity" ubuntu release for panda? Mar 21 15:01:18 ubuntu-server Mar 21 15:01:21 Ubuntu-server. Mar 21 15:01:54 that uses the gnome2 desktop? Mar 21 15:02:11 gnome2 is dead upstream Mar 21 15:02:36 ubuntu-server offers you a task selection at the end of the install Mar 21 15:02:40 ogra_: what does the ubuntu-server edition use instead of unity? Mar 21 15:02:43 you can pick other desktops there Mar 21 15:02:46 ahh Mar 21 15:02:54 server by default doesnt us a desktop Mar 21 15:03:07 ahhh Mar 21 15:03:12 but it lets you select one.... Mar 21 15:03:26 ogra_: ahh ok, i'll have a look Mar 21 15:03:28 alternatively install desktop and install another desktop on it Mar 21 15:03:39 sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop Mar 21 15:03:45 or xubuntu-desktop Mar 21 15:04:00 yea Mar 21 15:04:14 probably stick to an 11 install.... bummer Mar 21 15:04:17 (note, the server install completely runs on serial) Mar 21 15:04:56 no worries there for me Mar 21 15:05:23 sure, just wanted to mention it ... since the desktop one doesnt enable serial at all (after u-boot) Mar 21 15:05:24 ogra_: are the x86 installs the same? Mar 21 15:05:28 no Mar 21 15:05:38 well, content wise they are Mar 21 15:05:47 the installation is completely different Mar 21 15:05:52 ogra_: right, that was my vague question, hehe Mar 21 15:06:07 right, with 12.04 there is only unity on the desktop images Mar 21 15:06:22 though for x86 there are xubuntu,kubuntu and lubuntu images Mar 21 15:06:28 thats a real shame Mar 21 15:06:44 as well as ubuntu-studio and mythbuntu Mar 21 15:06:59 why is that a shame ? we always only shipped the default desktop Mar 21 15:07:29 yea, just unity and i don't get along Mar 21 15:07:32 its not like ubuntu changed that much in this regard Mar 21 15:07:56 (since CDs didnt magically grow over 800M... ) Mar 21 15:08:14 CDs are a lame excuse on arm where nobody uses CDs :) Mar 21 15:08:24 ogra_: yea, just the choice of unity is my issue. but that is just me Mar 21 15:08:28 suihkulokki, i didnt refer to arm above :) Mar 21 15:08:38 prpplague, nah. not just you Mar 21 15:08:57 * ogra_ gets along pretty well with unity2d but really bad with unity Mar 21 15:10:00 * prpplague needs to clean his work area Mar 21 18:28:59 ogra_: did you have time to look at the sgx packages? Mar 21 18:29:30 rsalveti, no, still busy getting oem-config preseeding to work, they are next on the list though Mar 21 18:29:48 ogra_: great, meanwhile I'm trying to fix clutter Mar 21 18:29:53 to unblock the arm images Mar 21 18:30:03 heh, yeah, i saw Mar 21 18:32:04 *** VTE ***: Failed to load terminal capabilities from '/etc/termcap' Mar 21 18:32:13 after this mornings apt-get dist-upgrade Mar 21 19:27:50 pbuckley: close down open terminals and open them up again Mar 21 19:30:12 iirc the error comes from an updated link and is corrected when open terminals are closed and the new version is started Mar 21 20:06:29 hi! ubuntu-12.04-beta1-preinstalled-desktop-armhf+omap4.img should work on a pandaboard right? Mar 21 20:07:16 img.gz ... but yeah Mar 21 20:07:21 (I just get a black screen, where it works fine with a 11.10 armel desktop image) Mar 21 20:08:09 do you know what board revision you have there ? Mar 21 20:08:34 we deinitely tested on panda ES and panda A1 and A2 Mar 21 20:08:34 Pandaboard ES Mar 21 20:09:06 did you try the "other" HDMI port ? :) Mar 21 20:09:26 iirc the graphics driver changed, might be that you need to use the DVI port now Mar 21 20:09:33 it's on the one marked DVI (since I'm susing it with a DVI adaptor) Mar 21 20:09:37 let me try the other one... Mar 21 20:10:00 ogra_: No, hdmi port (closest to the USB/Mic ports) should be fine. Mar 21 20:10:11 That would be it. Switch ports. Mar 21 20:10:45 Only diff is that the HDMI port is dvi-0 and has digital audio signals. Mar 21 20:10:47 indeed, I switched to the other one and it works :) Mar 21 20:11:09 Excellent. Mar 21 20:11:46 with 11.10 it only worked on the other one. Mar 21 20:12:17 * highvoltage wonders if update-manager can plug out a cable and plug it into another port :p Mar 21 20:13:16 highvoltage, sure, but you need to buy the HW extension in the canonical shop Mar 21 20:14:07 I'll look out for it! I hope it has unnecessaryly elaborate robotic arms Mar 21 20:14:12 it comes with a free bumper sticker even ! Mar 21 20:14:37 * highvoltage is afraid to ask what it says Mar 21 20:15:14 * ogra_ isnt that creative anymore after a 11h day (that still has 2h to go) Mar 21 20:16:09 (same here, I was close to getting to a "I ♥..." something about sabdfl but my brain can't formulate funny anymore Mar 21 20:16:30 (at least it can still do unicode) Mar 21 20:16:51 heh, more than i can :) Mar 21 20:33:04 what's in the server image that makes it so much bigger than the desktop one? Mar 21 20:34:30 Lots of preseeded packages for server installation. Mar 21 20:34:49 So that you don't need to install them from the net. Mar 21 20:35:01 (in theory) Mar 21 20:36:02 ah Mar 21 20:42:25 its to bad in unity when you click the ubuntu logo in the upper left hand corner and you get that black search box pop up that when i type in a url like afp://bobs_fileshare/jokes or smb://janes/pics it doesnt take me to the network file share.. Mar 21 20:57:09 ogra_: when I do an apt-get autoremove after my pandaboard is installed, it removes dpkg-repack, apt-clone, libdebian-installer4 and a few other things that doesn't quite seem like they belong in the final installation Mar 21 20:57:18 ogra_: am I mistaken or should I file a bug for that? Mar 21 20:57:34 yeah, file a bug Mar 21 23:00:12 infinity: my f-k branch is now updated w/ f-k-i changes for highbank Mar 21 23:25:48 How to get usb networking on Ubuntu 11.10? If I try ordinary steps, I get error that there is no such interface as usb0. Mar 21 23:27:22 By ordinary I mean I make sure modules cdc_ether and usbnet are loaded, make entry to /etc/network/interfaces for usb0 and then /etc/init.d/networking restart **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Mar 22 02:59:58 2012
