**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Apr 03 02:59:58 2012 Apr 03 12:00:58 anyone willing to test a panda/omap4 kernel? Apr 03 12:26:27 ppisati: sure, what do you need? Apr 03 12:28:08 rbasak: just boot it and tell me if video output is ok, and if you see anything strange around (my panda's video output is broken and i'm waiting for a replacement) Apr 03 12:28:22 ppisati: ah Apr 03 12:28:34 rbasak: are you running dekstop or server edition? Apr 03 12:28:35 ppisati: I'm a server head, I don't have any video set up on my panda, sorry :-/ Apr 03 12:28:39 ah Apr 03 12:28:40 :) Apr 03 12:28:53 I can tell you if serial output works if you like :-P Apr 03 12:29:03 i've serial :) Apr 03 12:29:37 ppisati: are there any changes / improvements in video on the way or why do you ask? Apr 03 12:30:34 u1106: because we had a "clash" between vanilla and TI BSP video support, thus i need some to check the result of my merge Apr 03 12:30:42 *someone Apr 03 12:32:29 well, I'm probably not the right one, I have an HDMI transmitter with the "red damage" myself. Was just curious whether we could expect to get DVI-D & dual output back soon ;) Apr 03 14:32:24 Has anyone asked about -- or successfully installed -- Ubuntu on a synet07526 netbook? I've recently acquired one, and am woefully ignorant about both ARM in general, and that netbook's specs in particular. Apr 03 14:32:37 My first hour or so of Googling is at least proving that I have weak google-fu. I see that Ubuntu is looking to support ARMv7+ ... does my netbook fit the bill? Apr 03 14:35:38 rsalveti, poke, did you already prepare a new pvr package for the one that infinity rejected ? Apr 03 14:46:46 hoonteke, ubuntu wont run on it Apr 03 14:52:40 ogra_: yup, using update-alternatives and such Apr 03 14:52:52 ogra_: I updated the bug last monday I guess Apr 03 14:52:56 with the newer package Apr 03 14:53:16 it's just missing the jockey integration Apr 03 15:55:56 Hey guys… not sure if you'd be able to help me or not…. I'm trying to get Openni_kinect for ROS working on my Pandaboard running Ubuntu 11.10. When it goes to install/compile, it's giving me the following error: Apr 03 15:56:19 ../../../../Source/OpenNI/Linux/XnUSBLinux.cpp:30:31: fatal error: libusb-1.0/libusb.h: No such file or directory Apr 03 15:56:57 is libusb something I need to add in that doesn't come built into Ubuntu? Apr 03 15:57:08 (on ARM, but does on x86?) Apr 03 16:00:58 mkopack: I think you need the libusb-1.0-0-dev. Apr 03 16:01:18 ok, let me give that a try Apr 03 16:01:19 Thanks Apr 03 16:02:56 Ok, so far so good! Apr 03 16:05:59 mkopack: on debianoids, the header for the libs are usually in the correspondig -dev packages. this does not only apply to libusb - just for the next header that is not found when you go on compiling :) Apr 03 16:06:12 Ah, k Apr 03 16:06:38 seems to be going… now it's just the "a watched compile never builds" wait :) Apr 03 16:07:28 damn, looks like it's trying to make a JAR for OPenNI. Guess it's time to install Java on this thing! :) Apr 03 17:04:51 ogra_: can you give me more info on why? e.g. Is the processor pre-ARMv7? Apr 03 17:05:09 yes, and it only has 128M Apr 03 17:05:27 and just 800x480 ... ubuntu wont be fun on this Apr 03 17:05:55 even if you could boot it (i think there might be a debian port for it, google for that) Apr 03 17:06:01 ogra_: heh, the current Windows CE is about unusable ... do you have a suggestion for what would be a possible distro for this ... Apr 03 17:06:04 oh debian ... Apr 03 17:06:25 ogra_: heh, I've *been* googling, but apparently without success. I'll try by adding in debian to my searches now Apr 03 17:06:26 many thanks Apr 03 17:11:37 installer crashed, lovely Apr 03 17:12:01 ogra_: do you happen to know which processor this sucker has? I can't seem to find a straight answer. All I can definitively say at this point is that it's an ARM, apparently pre v7. Apr 03 17:12:45 no idea, but definitely not armv7 Apr 03 17:12:52 damn. K, thanks. Apr 03 17:18:06 Hi friends, i am trying to bring up wlan on samsung s5pv310 based custom board .. module is bulit and loaded properly .. but i am facing probem in loading firmware .. I have placed the binary wl1271-fw.bin in /system/etc/firmware/ti-connectivity/wl1271-fw.bin .. but still the udev complains that firmware is missing and creates /run/udev/firmware-missing/wl1271-fw.bin .. more logs in - http://paste.ubuntu.com/913282/ .. could some Apr 03 17:18:06 one pls suggest where should i place the fw .. Apr 03 17:18:09 ogra_: just got bug 972645 while installing the latest pre-built image Apr 03 17:18:10 Launchpad bug 972645 in ubiquity "Pre-built image installer crashed on daily image from Apr 3" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/972645 Apr 03 17:18:19 didn't yet check the logs, just followed the report bug dialog Apr 03 17:18:39 well, last i tested was beta2 Apr 03 17:18:44 that worked fine Apr 03 17:19:41 this with the latest current image available Apr 03 17:19:54 ogra_: did you test with selecting the auto-login option? Apr 03 17:19:59 that was the only different thing I did this time Apr 03 17:21:31 i never ever used auto-login :) Apr 03 17:21:38 so that might be it Apr 03 17:21:40 that could be the reason :-) Apr 03 17:22:06 I also remember it worked with beta 2 image when not using the auto-login option Apr 03 17:22:17 wanted to have something different this time ;-) Apr 03 17:23:59 I wonder if the encrypt option work as well Apr 03 17:27:27 i dont think it does Apr 03 17:27:46 iirc it requires a separate /home Apr 03 17:28:21 and preinstalled also has no concept of encrypting / since you already run from it Apr 03 17:28:43 * ogra_ thinks he remembers that GrueMaster filed a bug about that ages ago Apr 03 17:31:19 If autologin is selected, it won't encrypt /home. Apr 03 17:31:48 I filed a bug about that back in Karmic or Lucid. It was fixed ages ago. Apr 03 17:32:46 As to current image issues, I have no clue as the QA team has taken over testing. Apr 03 17:36:47 hello guys! wanted to know which desktop environment/window manager do u use for ARM-based devices? Apr 03 17:38:09 Mephisto__: We have 1 desktop image, which is mostly identical on all platforms (arm, x86, ppc, amd64). That uses Unity where 3D acceleration is possible, Unity-2D when acceleration isn't available. Apr 03 17:39:35 so it is gnome right (unity) Apr 03 17:40:09 The only image differences are usually where a package build takes too long to reliably include (ex: LibreOffice), or hw specific (ex: acpi tools). Apr 03 17:41:19 I couldn't give you the technical details of the differences/similarities of Gnome vs Unity. That is best asked in #ubuntu-desktop. Apr 03 17:41:47 and performance wise, is hungry on resources? Apr 03 17:58:41 Mephisto__: cpu no, memory yes Apr 03 17:59:05 if you have a machine with 512mb of ram Apr 03 17:59:15 then the system will use around 200mb on startup Apr 03 17:59:29 * ogra_ still gets along just fine with 512M here Apr 03 17:59:53 not using thunderbird for mail and indeed some zcache swap :) Apr 03 17:59:55 the problem atre that webbrowsers today easily eat 300mb of ram. you get along fine yes like ogra say but you can run into corner cases Apr 03 18:00:05 yeah Apr 03 18:00:22 its a non issue on 1G with a system that has proper swap indeed Apr 03 18:01:51 seems that with embedded systems, swap is critical ! Apr 03 18:02:33 ubuntu isnt an embedded distro Apr 03 18:03:14 the arm HW we support has at least 512M ram and at least an 800MHz CPU Apr 03 18:05:05 The closest we really come to an embedded system is with our preinstalled server images. They are designed to run headless, and you can add whatver stack on top of the base install that you need. Apr 03 18:05:27 well, they still want at least 128M to run Apr 03 18:05:37 not actually embedded ;) Apr 03 18:06:14 Yes, not a true embedded image for sure. Just as close as we get to one. Apr 03 18:06:27 i would say core is closer Apr 03 18:06:37 but a lot more work to get working indeed Apr 03 18:55:56 does anybody know how to compile kernel ubuntu package without fakeroot? I cloned a kernel git and there is no debian/rules available... Apr 03 19:01:09 ask in #ubuntu-kernel about a packaging branch you can possibly merge ... Apr 03 19:01:39 or use the right tree from the start ... there is no way to build a package if you have no debian/ dir in the tree Apr 04 00:43:58 any imx53 users in here? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Apr 04 02:59:58 2012
