**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Mar 05 02:59:58 2013 Mar 05 10:30:23 Anyone here who can help me? Im trying to setup x2go on an arm based thin client running ubuntu 10.04 but the packages i need is not in the repository, ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports Mar 05 10:31:56 the arm cpu in working on is armv71 Mar 05 10:43:40 zorky: Why 10.04 instead of 12.04? Mar 05 10:48:38 infinity, i have no idea. i got the image from the producer of the thin client Mar 05 10:49:48 Well, if you're looking for x2goclient (I assume?), it doesn't exist in any release earlier than raring on *any* architecture, this isn't ARM-specific. Mar 05 10:50:12 So, you could grab the precise sources and try to backport them to lucid, but no idea how much work that may or may not be. Mar 05 10:50:35 doesnt x2go include a whole copy of its own X libs ? Mar 05 10:50:39 i need to figure out how to upgrade the thinclient to 12.04 then Mar 05 10:50:41 shouldnt be hard to backport Mar 05 10:51:24 well i only have around 3 month of experience with linux. im not that good at this. so i dont know how to backport Mar 05 10:51:35 And where I said "raring" up there, I meant "precise". I'm a bit tired. Mar 05 10:52:34 Ahh, looks like there's an x2go PPA with everything built for lucid. Mar 05 10:52:53 Of course, x86 only... Mar 05 10:53:08 Cause it's a PPA. :/ Mar 05 10:53:16 But you could grab the sources and build them locally. Mar 05 10:53:20 https://launchpad.net/~x2go/+archive/stable/+packages Mar 05 10:54:10 ehh, thats the problem. i dont know to to build them Mar 05 10:54:36 so far, the easiest way for me to do this. is to upgrade the thin client to 12.04? Mar 05 10:56:31 Or add that PPA to your sources.list as a deb-src entry and do some "apt-get build-dep $source && apt-get --build source $source" iterations over the packages you want. Mar 05 10:56:58 But if you can make that machine run precise, that wouldn't be a bad idea anyway. Mar 05 10:57:13 You may find that if it has a custom kernel and some fancy drivers, that turns out to be a really bad idea, though. :/ Mar 05 10:58:51 i think it has a custom image running on it, but im not completely sure about it either Mar 05 13:27:27 anyone know how i install 12.04 on an armv71? Mar 05 13:28:30 i think yu mean an ARMv7l Mar 05 13:28:37 (small L ... not 1) Mar 05 13:34:52 zorky, and it depends on your device ... Mar 05 13:37:14 ohh Mar 05 13:37:30 it's a chip pc lxd 8541 Mar 05 13:38:02 generally the userspace will just run on any v7 device ... but you need to provide a kernel and bootloader setup yourself (and have a bit experience with arm stuff) Mar 05 13:39:03 the only installable ubuntu images we currently provide are for toshiba ac100 netbooks, pandaboards and the nexus7 tablet ... Mar 05 13:39:38 and then there is ubuntu touch (see the #ubuntu-touch channel) which runs on all devices supported by cyanogenmod 10.1 (android) Mar 05 13:44:49 hmm Mar 05 13:45:17 will look into it tom, i sent a mail to the device manufature to ask for a 12.04 image Mar 05 13:56:47 hi, does anyone know anything about this: http://malideveloper.arm.com/develop-for-mali/drivers/open-source-mali-gpus-linux-kernel-device-drivers/ - has anyone tried using these drivers? Mar 05 15:48:21 hi all **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Mar 06 02:59:58 2013
