**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Jan 28 03:00:00 2013 Jan 28 07:01:58 Someone should make a note about this channel and put it in the welcome text in #ubuntu I have a nexus 7 and was alone... Heh Jan 28 07:02:24 The nexus channel is dark and empty. Jan 28 07:02:52 That's all for now. I'll be returning after rooting,. Jan 28 07:39:04 good morning Jan 28 07:42:23 dholbach: moring Jan 28 07:42:58 hi vipzrx Jan 28 07:43:50 good morning all Jan 28 07:44:07 i'm new, didn't notice there's a channel until yesterday Jan 28 07:44:42 welcome Jan 28 07:45:21 i am in china，now is afternoon in our country Jan 28 07:45:50 i'm gonna make a few nagios-server on your datacenter-entrace showcases with a nexus7 and see how it's going Jan 28 07:46:13 I have one running for 2 months now or so and except browser memleaks it's doing a great job Jan 28 16:48:33 some questions... does one of you have the GPS working in ubuntu? I have stabbed at it last year but no success Jan 28 16:48:49 i don't wanna get the position, just the GPS time for NTP Jan 28 16:49:02 i have a non-3g model, if that matters Jan 28 18:02:42 can someone tell me what the best way to compile ubuntu for armv7 on x86 is? Jan 28 18:03:15 rootstock is depricated and the qemu kernel panics during the process Jan 28 18:03:41 and correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think live-build can't cross compile Jan 28 18:10:33 about how long should it take to "fastboot flash boot" an ubuntu image to a nexus 7? mine has taken about 20 minutes Jan 28 18:22:56 ogra_: is today's image too big? http://paste.kde.org/658604/ Jan 28 18:23:21 Riddell, wrong image to wrong partition Jan 28 18:23:33 mm? Jan 28 18:23:37 img goes to userdata Jan 28 18:23:43 bootimg goes to boot Jan 28 18:23:59 the "boot" partition is only 8M big Jan 28 18:24:08 ogra_: where do I get the bootimg? Jan 28 18:24:15 oh I see it Jan 28 18:24:33 ok I'll see if I can make that clearer in the install instructions, thanks ogra_ Jan 28 19:59:44 anyone have any advice for getting rootstock to work? Jan 28 20:21:40 darkfader: I'd also like to get a working GPS (and compass) for the nexus7... I tried but didn't get very far, though I found some parts of the solution: Jan 28 20:21:40 a) linux/arch/arm/mach-tegra/board-grouper-pinmux.c has a comment /* UART B : GPS */ and I think (from trying to understand the code in that directory) that UART B should be connected to /dev/ttyHS1 Jan 28 20:22:20 b) apparently the GPS chip uses a proprietary protocol, but some Replicant folks have been able to reverse-engineer some of it in another device: https://gitorious.org/replicant/crespo-gps-utils Jan 28 20:22:20 c) the compass chip seems to be supported by the kernel: it has a directory under /sys already; but I guess a light bridge from this to gpsd would still be needed (at least I think compass chips should also be connected via gpsd to make them work in the normal navigation software) Jan 28 20:25:14 ... I tried to use screen to connect to /dev/ttyHS1 using various baud rates, but couldn't get it to write anything back... I'm not sure if I did something wrong (e.g., there is a cryptic termios.c_cflag in b)) or whether the GPS chip should be powered on by something else before trying to connect (the code in b) does some power-up specific to the device it was written for, not nexus7) Jan 28 20:26:25 or maybe the comment in a) is wrong and the GPS isn't connected via UART at all: some random googling found that a Nokia phone from around 2010 had the same GPS chip apparently connected via I2C, so I presume it supports both Jan 28 20:29:29 (are any specifications available for the chip itself? I didn't find any, and I presume not, if the Replicant folks had to reverse-engineer it, I think by running a closed-source Android app and capturing traffic to the GPS chip... :( ) Jan 28 21:52:12 Rjs: i also couldn't connect to i think tty2 which should have been the GPS line Jan 28 21:52:47 but seems you've been deeper into it. i can just verify it didn't work as it's apparently supposed to Jan 29 02:07:33 Hi, folks, Does any know how many kinds of arm assembly language standard exist? I'm very confused by the difference between different arm assembly standard. Jan 29 02:09:19 Say the UAL(Unified Assembly Language) and GNU as are different. Is any more standard about arm assembly lanuage? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Jan 29 02:59:58 2013
