**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Nov 26 02:59:59 2012 Nov 26 07:51:43 good morning Nov 26 10:11:30 hi. On the N7 using my rootfs (based on debian), I can't use the inversion Axis for the touchscreen: Nov 26 10:11:33 # xinput set-prop 6 "Evdev Axis Inversion" 1 1 Nov 26 10:11:41 # xinput list-props 6 | grep Inversion Nov 26 10:11:41 Evdev Axis Inversion (245): 0, 0 Nov 26 10:12:04 does anybody have an idea ? Nov 26 10:12:04 thanks Nov 26 10:21:30 Ubuntu is using almost same version of the xorg evdev driver and the xorg conf for that manages to invert the axis properly.. Nov 26 10:25:07 kulve: right, but the thing is that setting the option manually with xinput has no effect, not sure if this is handled by X itself or by evdev. Nov 26 10:25:57 fmoreau: no idea about setting it with xinput.. Nov 26 12:10:07 yay, bug 1079729 is fixed Nov 26 12:10:09 Launchpad bug 1079729 in ubuntu-nexus7 "Ubuntu uninstallable on 32GB 3G Nexus 7" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1079729 Nov 26 12:14:21 nice Nov 26 12:31:24 does anybody if it's possible for the N7 to be accessed as a usb mass storage device ? Nov 26 12:33:16 fmoreau: load g_storage kernel module with proper arguments? (under ubuntu) Nov 26 12:36:08 fmoreau: with android installed it can be accessed over MPT protocol, not as a usb mass storage. Nov 26 12:36:19 fmoreau: with ubuntu installed, I don't think so. Nov 26 12:36:35 nfs, ssh, samba are all available with ubuntu Nov 26 12:36:52 yes I mean with ubuntu installed Nov 26 12:37:16 xnox: the point to use USB is that it's used when not network is available Nov 26 12:37:24 fmoreau: but you know that this would be exclusive access? Nov 26 12:37:25 hrw: can't find this module. Only g_android is Nov 26 12:37:26 hrw: oh, what's this g_storage you are talking about? Nov 26 12:37:37 xnox: usb gadget mass storage Nov 26 12:37:44 ack. Nov 26 12:37:48 hrw: what do you mean ? Nov 26 12:37:49 use g_ether to make the usb a network cable Nov 26 12:38:05 only g_android is available Nov 26 12:38:07 or even better, get a access point and forget about wires Nov 26 12:38:07 fmoreau: which partition you want to share over usb? Nov 26 12:38:24 hrw: /etc but / would be better Nov 26 12:38:50 xnox: CONFIG_USB_FILE_STORAGE CONFIG_USB_MASS_STORAGE Nov 26 12:39:01 fmoreau: you can not share dirs Nov 26 12:39:03 thanks. Nov 26 12:39:07 fmoreau: you can't share a partition mounted already using usb mass storage Nov 26 12:39:18 fmoreau: and once you share parition your system loses access to it Nov 26 12:39:36 ah, I wan's aware about that. Nov 26 12:39:54 fmoreau: imagine that you have mmcblk0p3 as / and p5 as /home one. You can umount /home and give it as usb mass storage Nov 26 12:40:10 fmoreau: then umount usb storage, remove module, mount /home Nov 26 12:40:34 didn't know that the device needs to umount the shared partition Nov 26 12:41:05 fmoreau: can you mount /dev/mmcblk0p5 twice? Nov 26 12:41:13 without bind mount Nov 26 12:41:15 hrw: sure Nov 26 12:42:17 ok, other question. imagine x86 box. and /dev/sda5 is /storage. at same time you run other linux in VM and give it /dev/sda5 - will not work good ;D Nov 26 12:42:22 anyway you got it Nov 26 12:48:07 hrw: hrw then I guess I could use g_serial module instead (goal: trying to access to the N7 without network connection) ? Nov 26 12:48:37 from /proc/config.gz Nov 26 12:48:39 # CONFIG_USB_G_SERIAL is not set Nov 26 12:48:44 arcg Nov 26 12:48:45 argh Nov 26 12:48:48 you will need to create an upstart job for it Nov 26 12:49:05 ogra-cb: what do you mean ? Nov 26 12:49:08 else there wont be a tty on the created serial port Nov 26 12:49:45 see the serial howto on the ubuntu wiki Nov 26 12:50:24 ok but the kernel lack of the module Nov 26 12:53:03 ogra-cb: the think is that the tty dev node should be created by udev I think Nov 26 12:53:05 well, theer were plans to enable g_composite Nov 26 12:53:13 but i dont think we did that yet Nov 26 12:53:27 fmoreau, no, it shouldnt Nov 26 12:53:31 I'm not sure why upstart should be needed Nov 26 12:53:43 ogra-cb: that would be usefull I think, specially when the network is not available Nov 26 12:53:52 upstart handles the gettys, so indeed you need it if you want to log in Nov 26 12:54:41 ah ok Nov 26 12:55:03 so... need to rebuild the kernel to enable this module Nov 26 12:57:24 yes Nov 26 12:59:34 ogra-cb: should I follow the steps described here ? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nexus7/Kernel?action=show&redirect=Nexus7%2FKernelBuild#Build_zImage_only Nov 26 13:00:04 victorp, if you like you can give the raring images a first shot ;) Nov 26 13:00:29 g_android does include several functions Nov 26 13:00:33 such as RNDIS though Nov 26 13:00:36 still very buggy all over but you can get through (until the nux bug kicks in indeed) Nov 26 13:00:39 ogra-cb, !! :) Nov 26 13:00:57 there are various new bugs too :) Nov 26 13:01:02 ogra-cb, is the nux bug still haunting us? Nov 26 13:01:27 yes Nov 26 13:02:04 lilstevie: where can I get the details about g_android ? Nov 26 13:02:18 fmoreau, have a look in init.grouper.usb.rc Nov 26 13:02:33 in the android boot.img Nov 26 13:02:56 lilstevie: ok, thanks Nov 26 13:03:11 we'll very likely drop g_android when switching to g_composite Nov 26 13:03:22 so dont rely on it with your code Nov 26 13:04:57 ogra-cb: Nov 26 13:05:02 $ LC_ALL=C git clone git://kernel.ubuntu.com/hwe/ubuntu-nexus7.git Nov 26 13:05:10 kernel.ubuntu.com[0: 91.189.94.216]: errno=Connection refused Nov 26 13:05:25 as in #ubuntu-kernel Nov 26 13:05:28 *ask Nov 26 13:05:41 ok Nov 26 13:06:06 you can just use apt-get source btw Nov 26 13:12:44 victorp, for manual installation: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-nexus7/+bug/1079729/comments/37 Nov 26 13:12:44 Launchpad bug 1079729 in ubuntu-nexus7 "Ubuntu uninstallable on 32GB 3G Nexus 7" [High,Confirmed] Nov 26 13:26:24 ogra-cb, thanks - I need to work with the team about this unity bug Nov 26 13:27:19 yeah, nux and the touchscreen issue are the most pressing ones still Nov 26 13:27:44 (and a few new ones with the new way of installing, but i'll take care of these) Nov 26 15:28:30 how do I find out if a package is in main or universe? Seems like a dumb question, but http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/debconf doesn;t obvsiouly say Nov 26 15:28:53 wookey_: apt-cache policy packagename usually does it for me Nov 26 15:29:28 so it does. Doh Nov 26 17:27:58 Did anyone try to install Ubuntu on the Windows RT tablet yet? (Just a random thought that popped up in my head) Nov 26 17:28:32 Maybe if someone would actually buy them. I hear that they've been doing pretty dismally. Nov 26 17:28:52 BrokenThumb: most window RT tablets use HS parts with extra security to prevent that Nov 26 17:29:11 BrokenThumb: doable, but not exactly something done in one afternoon Nov 26 17:29:11 send me one, i can try :P Nov 26 17:29:27 unlikely to be easy or so Nov 26 17:29:30 prpplague: it's been out for a few weeks already? ;-) Nov 26 17:29:52 well, "out" seems to be relative Nov 26 17:30:11 as highvoltage mentioned ... might be "out" but still all in boxes Nov 26 17:31:56 * highvoltage might buy one when they go hp-touchpad and cost <$100 Nov 26 17:32:52 ++ Nov 26 17:33:12 Oh, that'll be nice! =D Nov 26 17:33:41 heh, we're like vultures :) Nov 26 17:36:57 *caw* *caw* Nov 26 18:02:52 wookey_: you can look at http://pad.lv/u/$source_package at the lines "published in raring release (main)" Nov 26 20:05:47 ogra_: Kernel 3.1.10+ on a 4-processor armv7l / ttyGS0 Nov 26 20:05:48 localhost login: Nov 26 20:05:51 :) Nov 26 20:05:59 can log through USB now :) Nov 26 20:07:56 ogra_: would be wonderfull if g_serial is built for the next kernel image Nov 26 23:22:56 Why do we see 'Error reading Mac Address from EEPROM' ?
