**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Nov 17 03:00:00 2012 Nov 17 11:57:09 ogra_, will you blog about your arm chromebook? And is it easy to run ubuntu on it? [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM doesn't seem to mention it] Nov 17 11:58:13 well, i currently just use the chrubuntu insteructions to get to ubuntu and then upgraded to raring, nothing special done yet, but yes i will blog, more bout the nexus though Nov 17 12:00:30 Snark, if you want blogposts about chromebooks, hrw is your man (and ojn on g+) Nov 17 12:00:35 the nexus 10 doesn't look bad, but 16Go is too small and 32Go is too pricy Nov 17 12:00:46 ogra-cb_, links? Nov 17 12:00:46 well, i meant the nexus7 Nov 17 12:00:57 there are no current plans for the 10 Nov 17 12:01:07 ah, 7'' is too small for my taste -- I mostly read on that device! Nov 17 12:01:19 s/I mostly read/I would mostly read/ Nov 17 12:01:25 * ogra-cb_ too and its awesome with its 300ppi display Nov 17 12:01:31 (I mostly read on the AC100 which I do have) Nov 17 12:02:24 graphically the nexus is far advanced over the chromebook, cpu wise the chromebook is stronger Nov 17 12:03:19 anyway, i need to hit the road, will be back online in the evening i suppose Nov 17 12:04:17 ok, thanks Nov 17 12:04:52 the fact that the chomebook has a keyboard is interesting too... but a tablet with a bluetooth keyboard can be interesting too Nov 17 12:05:40 ogra-cb_, hmm I thought the Nexus 10 and the Chromebook were both meant to be Exynos 5250 Nov 17 12:52:53 any decision if 13.04 will have a multi-soc kernel? Nov 17 14:19:35 Snark: http://gplus.to/hrw and http://marcin.juszkiewicz.com.pl/ Nov 17 15:35:23 Hi everybody, i would like install gnu\linux to my tablet, but i'm not very expert about this toys, so somebody can explain me which kind of problems there are to install a arm linux to a tablet? Nov 17 16:09:52 hrw, thanks! Nov 17 16:49:09 hrw, if that thing has an SD port, it could work like the AC100: the system and /home on the internal storage and the documents in an always-in SD-card that would probably be quite neat Nov 17 17:42:16 Snark: it has sd port but half of sd card sticks out Nov 17 17:59:14 hrw, a full half? For the AC100 about 5mm do Nov 17 18:02:40 for chromebook ~half Nov 17 18:03:44 that's probably too much to leave it always inside :-/ Nov 17 18:04:52 does there exist a 32Go version? Nov 17 18:05:42 no ;( Nov 17 18:06:12 I am thinking of something like https://www.modmypi.com/shop/raspberry-pi-micro-sd-card-adaptor Nov 17 18:08:30 you're thinking about a hardware mod :-/ Nov 17 18:09:29 no Nov 17 18:09:43 its microsd -> sd adapter which should fit in case Nov 17 18:10:08 other option is microsd -> usb adapter which will not stick out too much Nov 17 18:10:56 is there a way to install armel gcc/libc/etc in parallel w/ armhf versions on 12.10? I need to be able to build some stuff that links against android libdl and blob libs, and at the moment gcc is unhappy about linking armhf bits with non-hardfloat libs.. Nov 17 18:14:07 robclark: nope ;( Nov 17 18:14:20 * hrw -> out Nov 17 18:14:47 :-( Nov 17 18:14:54 this will be inconvenient.. Nov 17 18:28:40 I would imagine it's theoretically possible to make an intermediary armhflib that calls armel libs using assembly Nov 17 18:38:33 robclark: apt-get install gcc-multilib Nov 17 18:38:53 robclark: Then gcc -float-abi=softfp Nov 17 19:07:16 eh, I have a microSD -> SD adaptater already... got it with my phone Nov 17 19:55:36 infinity, ok, that is getting me closer.. still hitting some assert in the newer toolchain (compared to 11.10).. http://www.hastebin.com/lewurakuva.lua Nov 17 19:55:44 maybe I'll just have to build in a chroot.. Nov 17 22:18:48 robclark: If that was meant to be a paste, it wasn't. :) **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Nov 18 02:59:58 2012
