I have learned that thing with the needed additive from an article about the local garbage incineration where they said that changed in the last years. Jan 18 08:03:40 aholler: Edinburgh gets fined every month for failing to meet even the low EU standards Jan 18 08:04:11 anyway sleep time hre Jan 18 08:13:23 oh... Jan 18 08:13:26 I haven't forgotten that because it's a bit catch-22, we are sorting all kind of stuff to save resources, but then we have to use oil Jan 18 08:13:42 whos workign for $3.00/hr Jan 18 08:13:47 i'll pay $6.00 Jan 18 08:47:28 wow, tripit is smart Jan 18 08:47:30 http://i.imgur.com/6zPj7.jpg Jan 18 08:59:16 ok, I just had X die, and all the stuff I had typed was on the tty7 behind it Jan 18 08:59:40 that seems like a bad thingâ„¢ Jan 18 08:59:57 dm8tbr: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5077459 Jan 18 09:03:39 dm8tbr: https://github.com/kumadasu/tizen-history/blob/master/tizen-history.pdf Jan 18 09:05:49 hi Russ Jan 18 09:05:55 hi av500^Wtroll Jan 18 09:09:20 av500: yeah, I know that history pdf. linking old mer and new mer is a bit weird though. they only share a name Jan 18 09:18:29 hey panto Jan 18 09:19:05 weird, I just noticed that the word 'dub' is a happy guy listening to music Jan 18 09:20:11 I've managed to compile and install a console-image install. It brings up a login prompt but when I type root it just returns to the login prompt Jan 18 09:20:17 any suggestions? Jan 18 09:21:00 Dunearhp_, that sounds oddly familiar Jan 18 09:22:16 http://damienkatz.net/2013/01/the_unreasonable_effectiveness_of_c.html <- just seen it Jan 18 09:26:08 Dunearhp_: check whether root has a shell and whether it can be executed Jan 18 09:26:17 Dunearhp_: oh..and being execute doesnt return imediatly Jan 18 09:26:38 boot using init=/bin/sh if need be Jan 18 09:33:47 prpplague, there you go http://jasonevanish.com/2013/01/17/25-things-i-wish-i-knew-before-moving-to-san-francisco/ Jan 18 09:56:09 KotH: It is busybox, can't see any obvious causes Jan 18 10:20:08 Dunearhp_: systemd to blame? Jan 18 10:20:24 of course Jan 18 10:20:55 plug & pray! Jan 18 10:32:50 Likely, not familiar enough with it to debug it. Don't have the log 'journal' reading program on my desktop, so the logs are essentially opaque. Jan 18 10:33:30 I'm compiling a gnome system image, hopefully that won't give me a similar problem Jan 18 10:34:49 no, that's sure Jan 18 10:35:14 maybe dozen different ones, but there's enough images to keep you going during the whole weekend :p Jan 18 10:35:59 and to think, this project was only due last week Jan 18 10:36:24 we've some projects due 2 years Jan 18 10:36:27 so don't worry Jan 18 11:42:57 amg, a picture in a pdf in git.

Jan 18 13:08:02 it was not Nokia, it was the community Jan 18 13:08:17 whatever Jan 18 13:08:19 it was done Jan 18 13:08:23 the HW design was f*ked up so that native host mode would not work Jan 18 13:08:24 that's what counts Jan 18 13:08:33 and _that_ nokia did Jan 18 13:08:37 so they worked around by bitbanging USB in test mode Jan 18 13:08:40 yes Jan 18 13:33:57 YES!: https://plus.google.com/112157387623314703001/posts/hEoJd3pccyb Jan 18 13:34:17 considering that bitbanging usb 1.0 is no problem on slow avr's, it might be an option for faster processors. Jan 18 13:35:08 aholler: have you ever noticed how much cpu time usb tends to eat even when not bitbanging it? Jan 18 13:35:19 no Jan 18 13:35:21 usb sucks Jan 18 13:35:26 film at 11 Jan 18 13:36:29 usally usb just works here on most machines. And I never have seen anything which eats up load which I would count to usb. Jan 18 13:37:22 aholler, you haven't tried to pump out too much data out of it with a relatively low end CPU Jan 18 13:38:27 my dockstar (armv5) uses usb-disks only. But I'm unable to compare the load with what it would be with sata or similiar Jan 18 13:39:13 but it is able to do 25mb/s Jan 18 13:39:40 koen: I've been using 3.8-rc4 from your cco-tree today and I've seen some irregularities. The bone quite often dies and I assume it is a kernel issue as it hard locks and the heartbeat leds stop Jan 18 13:40:12 koen: I haven't managed to diagnose it yet, but will keep trying. Have you seen anything similar? Jan 18 13:42:25 jackmitchell, on usb power or DC jack? Jan 18 13:43:14 panto: usb from a 1amp transformer Jan 18 13:43:19 jackmitchell: yes, but using DC power seem to help Jan 18 13:43:44 what koen said Jan 18 13:43:49 koen: ok, I'll switch to my DC and see if it happens again Jan 18 13:45:22 koen: why do those boards pretend to support usb power when it doesn't actually work? Jan 18 13:46:14 mru, they do support usb power - there could be something wrong with the regulator settings Jan 18 13:46:28 3.8-rc4 <- alpha kernel Jan 18 13:46:35 here be dragons Jan 18 13:48:04 but already rc4 Jan 18 13:50:09 jackmitchell: fwiw, the usb part is current limited, so having more than 800mA is not going to help Jan 18 13:50:29 aholler, I mean the TI parts are alpha Jan 18 13:51:24 ah, ok. Jan 18 13:55:14 panto: koen: there seems to be a trend here, I haven't switched over to DC yet, but I will now. However perf record terminating crashes the bone everytime Jan 18 13:58:15 and the same on DC Jan 18 13:58:46 will hook it up to the ftdi and see if it spits anything useful out before death Jan 18 13:59:31 you're talking about dying kernels without having the serial attached? Jan 18 13:59:49 sounds like a plan ;) Jan 18 14:00:12 sure am, using the heartbeat led as an initial indicator (before I move my lazy self to the other side of the room to hook up ;) ) Jan 18 14:01:18 ok, nothing useful spat out over ftdi either Jan 18 14:02:32 and you have console=tty* in the kernel cmdline? Jan 18 14:03:59 console=ttyO0,115200n8 consoleblank=0 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 ro rootfstype=ext4 rootwait Jan 18 14:05:37 my experience was that the hardbeat-led was pretty resistent against most kernel bugs and it now just stops when the kernel enters his panic-routines, which means he likely spits out something Jan 18 14:06:13 so it looks like something fails hard Jan 18 14:09:30 indeed Jan 18 14:09:49 I think i'm going to have to build an earlier kernel and confirm it doesn;t happen there and go from that Jan 18 14:10:01 try to enable lock debuging Jan 18 14:10:19 ok will try and find it in the config Jan 18 14:10:47 it's below kernel-hacking Jan 18 14:13:13 all that kernel-debug-stuff got pretty usable. Jan 18 14:13:50 CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y Jan 18 14:13:50 CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y Jan 18 14:13:50 # CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is not set Jan 18 14:13:50 # CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is not set Jan 18 14:14:07 rcu is missing Jan 18 14:14:20 and enable prove locking Jan 18 14:14:25 and wake locking Jan 18 14:14:33 thats android Jan 18 14:14:54 or is it used by other stuff now too? Jan 18 14:15:11 av500: wakelock, is that what your kids do to you? Jan 18 14:15:12 rcu_trace and prove_locking? Jan 18 14:16:20 trace sounds like trace Jan 18 14:16:34 buzt probe locking is good Jan 18 14:16:46 but prove Jan 18 14:17:28 config_prove_rcu Jan 18 14:18:06 I don't seem to have a prove_rcu Jan 18 14:18:40 it gets visible with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING Jan 18 14:18:55 at least with 3.7 Jan 18 14:21:02 Ok, we're in I'll try transfering it over and see how it goes Jan 18 14:27:13 ok same issue and no more info with the perf record hard locking the kernel, however Jan 18 14:27:21 the RCU locking debug did throw this up: Jan 18 14:27:22 [ 2.321123] =============================== Jan 18 14:27:22 [ 2.325591] [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ] Jan 18 14:27:22 [ 2.330063] 3.8.0-rc4-00291-gbb85e3f-dirty #2 Not tainted Jan 18 14:27:22 [ 2.335805] ------------------------------- Jan 18 14:27:22 [ 2.340270] drivers/base/power/opp.c:157 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

Jan 18 14:28:56 jackmitchell, is that with CPUFREQ on? Jan 18 14:28:58 config_prove_rcu Jan 18 14:29:05 opp.c has'nt added new patches recently Jan 18 14:29:59 Hello my beagleboard-xm is not booting. Can anyone help> Jan 18 14:30:00 ? Jan 18 14:30:02 panto: I'm not sure, Koens deafult config with a few locking debus options enabled Jan 18 14:30:51 it does look like CPUFREQ is on from the .config Jan 18 14:31:37 I had a quick look at that bug haven't seen the problem without digging much. Jan 18 14:32:33 it just might be suspicious, whatever that means Jan 18 14:33:12 jackmitchell, aholler -> it does seem from the log the issue is as follows: Jan 18 14:33:26 a) opp_deference(opp) must be done under rcu_readlock Jan 18 14:33:55 When dc power is connected the TPS65950 heats up to more than 50C Jan 18 14:34:08 but the linux is not booting Jan 18 14:34:19 so the real usage is: rcu_read_lock; opp_find... ; get_voltage; get_freq; rcu_read_unlock Jan 18 14:34:24 Niraj: have read that, I think I've also seen some rejected patch which tried to fix that Jan 18 14:34:34 NishanthMenon: ^^ Jan 18 14:35:03 jackmitchell, the usage looks: rcu_read_lock; opp_find... ; rcu_read_unlock; get_voltage; get_freq Jan 18 14:35:20 aholler : can you please help and let me know what to do? Jan 18 14:35:26 ok, the the unlock should be after the get_voltage and get_freq? Jan 18 14:35:34 jackmitchell, yes Jan 18 14:35:37 NishanthMenon: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/879022/ Jan 18 14:35:55 Niraj, have you tried with an known good image? Jan 18 14:36:07 yes Jan 18 14:36:11 do you see any u-boot message? Jan 18 14:36:18 panto : yes Jan 18 14:36:28 ok, what is the Linux boot log? Jan 18 14:36:51 NishanthMenon: you nacked that ;) Jan 18 14:36:58 panto: the mmc leds are not turning on at all Jan 18 14:37:01 as documented in http://goo.gl/LTtdq line 235 Jan 18 14:37:21 panto: I checked the verification test point voltages Jan 18 14:37:25 aholler, that IS WRONG Jan 18 14:37:39 the patch you pointed is obviously wrong Jan 18 14:37:44 pant: except for VBAT and VUSB all other are at 0V Jan 18 14:37:45 think this way: Jan 18 14:38:06 rcu readlock is meant to protect a range of code where the pointers protected by rcu will be sane Jan 18 14:38:06 NishanthMenon: ah, I read it such that the bug is only suspicious Jan 18 14:38:21 therefor I haven't looked further Jan 18 14:38:23 the pointer protected is opp pointer Jan 18 14:38:33 so you get find_opp opp pointer Jan 18 14:38:37 then you do rcu_unlock Jan 18 14:38:50 the pointer is no longer maintained safe by rcu Jan 18 14:39:08 then one goes get_voltage on a pointer that is no longer ssafe by rcu? that is dumb Jan 18 14:39:56 where are you pulling your u-boot image from if not from mmc? Jan 18 14:40:02 jackmitchell, if you point at the full stack trace, we can catch the culprit code Jan 18 14:40:07 and probably be able to see the fix Jan 18 14:40:36 NishanthMenon: I haven't had a look at the patch, I just misunderstood your nack and regarded the bug just as suspicous ;) Jan 18 14:40:56 aholler, np, happens.. i try to keep a close track on opp code :D Jan 18 14:40:57 punto: I am pulling the u-boot from mmc but unfortunately the beagleboad is not starting up and reading the mmc Jan 18 14:41:06 NishanthMenon: how would I do that? Jan 18 14:41:14 the stack dump Jan 18 14:41:22 I'm perusing through pm.c in mach-omap2 at the monet Jan 18 14:41:24 jackmitchell, pastebin the stack dump Jan 18 14:41:29 s/monet/moment Jan 18 14:41:32 you haven't provided a log Jan 18 14:42:01 jackmitchell, " [ 2.372707] [] (unwind_backtrace+0x0/0xe0) from [] (opp_get_voltage+0x78/0xc8)" -> id like to see remaining stack trace as well Jan 18 14:42:23 punto: can you tell me how can I pull out the log from the sdcard? Jan 18 14:42:32 NishanthMenon: http://pastebin.com/6Y0bpCFi Jan 18 14:42:49 aha cpu0_cpufreq_driver_init Jan 18 14:43:23 jackmitchell, k.org? Jan 18 14:44:11 sorry? Jan 18 14:44:51 jackmitchell, never mind, I am fixing it Jan 18 14:44:56 hold on a few mins for a patch Jan 18 14:45:15 * NishanthMenon wonders how this escaped my mail filters :( Jan 18 14:45:30 NishanthMenon: http://dpaste.de/5j4qX/ Jan 18 14:45:43 looks a bit more verbose, that is what I had Jan 18 14:45:58 * NishanthMenon grumbles that people dont read documentation! Jan 18 14:46:05 aholler, that looks like a different buyg Jan 18 14:46:06 hold on Jan 18 14:46:13 will fix that as well Jan 18 14:46:23 uups, yes Jan 18 14:46:59 mom, I look if I still have the bug saved in another file ;) Jan 18 14:47:01 jackmitchell, http://pastebin.com/uaVgS19N Jan 18 14:47:08 jackmitchell, try that and let me know Jan 18 14:47:28 found another issue beyond driver_init Jan 18 14:48:52 aholler, http://pastebin.com/rSX9KpDG Jan 18 14:48:56 try that out please Jan 18 14:49:23 aholler, jackmitchell can you /msg your full name and mail id so that I can add "reported-by:" to upstream Jan 18 14:49:30 and ofcourse CC you in the patches? Jan 18 14:49:36 hmm, work ;) Jan 18 14:50:02 aholler, :D Jan 18 14:50:16 * NishanthMenon grumbles Jan 18 14:50:20 I will need some time, still at 3.2.x nothing above boots from ehci here ;) Jan 18 14:52:04 aholler, np, just drop me a note sometime when you get free . my email id is in signed-off-by and from in http://goo.gl/fDaZy Jan 18 14:52:54 * NishanthMenon decides to audit and fix entire k.org 3.8-rc4 Jan 18 14:52:55 :( Jan 18 14:53:04 at least for opp usage Jan 18 14:54:12 NishanthMenon: I can confirm that the patch fixes (or at least silences :P) the error Jan 18 14:54:29 jackmitchell, as I expected.. Jan 18 14:54:37 jackmitchell, someone forgot to RTFM Jan 18 14:55:03 jackmitchell, if you are interested in reported-by and a tested-by tag, drop me a note Jan 18 14:55:37 NishanthMenon: you should have just had it through on pm? Jan 18 14:55:50 ?? Jan 18 14:56:11 jackmitchell, i did not understand Jan 18 14:56:17 NishanthMenon: obviosuly not playing ball today: jack at embed dot me dot uk Jan 18 14:56:26 jackmitchell, thanks Jan 18 14:56:53 jackmitchell, one more minor question: tested on beagle XM? Jan 18 14:57:01 just beaglebone Jan 18 14:57:07 jackmitchell, thanks Jan 18 14:57:16 will post patch in a few mins and cc you Jan 18 14:57:21 np Jan 18 14:58:32 btw. don't know if it counts to opp, but vaux2 is still missing a regulator Jan 18 14:59:13 I think everything from beagle c4 upwards uses it for vdd_ehci Jan 18 14:59:18 aholler, wont count as opp thingy -> regulator missing seems to be dts thingy Jan 18 14:59:34 I'm still without Jan 18 14:59:46 will the board files disappear? Jan 18 15:01:31 maybe I should better ask when they will disappear Jan 18 15:03:03 aholler, they are gone Jan 18 15:03:14 with 3.8? Jan 18 15:03:20 yes Jan 18 15:03:33 hmm, sounds like I will get some work :( Jan 18 15:03:38 if you're booting with 3.8 there's no more a board-specific file, it's board-generic Jan 18 15:05:10 hopefully we will see rc7 ;) Jan 18 15:05:43 aholler, it's been a long time coming Jan 18 15:06:22 panto: sure, but I'm lazy and didn't have a need to change to dt Jan 18 15:06:37 we didn't either Jan 18 15:06:43 but it had to happen Jan 18 15:07:02 hmm, I think it will save some time Jan 18 15:07:07 +you Jan 18 15:07:25 if thats good or bad is something else Jan 18 15:07:58 actually I like dt, if it becomes usable Jan 18 15:08:35 frankly there are still problems, but they are getting worked on Jan 18 15:08:47 there are obvious benefits Jan 18 15:12:39 * NishanthMenon wishes everything omap was only dts based.. :( Jan 18 15:14:02 NishanthMenon: the second patch seems to miss an unlock in if (IS_ERR(opp)) Jan 18 15:14:16 aholler, thanks for pointing.. Jan 18 15:40:06 I wonder why so many patches got missing. e.g. I've seen at least two which fixed that vaux2 but never found their way into mainline. I think such discourages people. Jan 18 15:41:43 aholler, kick koen, NishanthMenon and others maintaining forks ;) Jan 18 15:43:12 linux-omap looked like a big black hole to me ;) Jan 18 15:44:11 sorry ;) Jan 18 16:02:18 * NishanthMenon weeps at drivers/devfreq/exynos4_bus.c Jan 18 16:04:39 nobody misses them Jan 18 16:05:17 panto, I see an astonishing collection of board files for you to claim they are all gone in 3.8 Jan 18 16:05:38 panto, like the _legacy_ omap4 platform :) Jan 18 16:05:39 they are gone for all new board/arches like am33xx :) Jan 18 16:05:49 embrace the future Jan 18 16:06:02 ahh, you didn't qualify it with "for all platforms that matter" :) Jan 18 16:06:08 I'm with you now Jan 18 16:06:17 ok, ok, all platforms that are not in rigor-mortis Jan 18 16:06:51 hehe Jan 18 16:06:57 hi prpplague Jan 18 16:07:02 panto: greetings Jan 18 16:07:09 panto: what's cooking today?

Jan 18 19:14:13 nm, feed update got it. :( Jan 18 19:14:15 sry Jan 18 19:14:18 jkridner: I found it with 'opkg list', so it's most certainly in the feeds :) Jan 18 19:14:40 jkridner: the code I used for the hexy pod is kinda emberassing Jan 18 19:14:43 I thought with the new image the feeds would be up-to-date, but opposite was true. Jan 18 19:14:48 jkridner: it's the adafruit r-pi python lib Jan 18 19:15:02 k. i'm looking at giving a tutorial on PWMs at i3-Detroit next week. Jan 18 19:15:50 * koen notes down that 'cheap' means 'non-linear' in servo town Jan 18 19:18:18 probably also means other things that you'll find out about later.

Jan 18 20:17:42 mranostay: he asked that I update the page to include a reference to the Chip on Board tutorial at the Die Products Consortium. Jan 18 20:18:02 That seems like a great job to have, DPC. Jan 18 20:29:37 it seems in the system I'm working on that OMAP GPIO regs get reset when the kernel starts Jan 18 20:29:56 mag: ping Jan 18 20:30:03 does anyone know if this is expected, and why it happens? Jan 18 20:30:12 3.0 kernel, DM3730 Jan 18 20:35:51 cbrake, hwmod reseting the gpio IP? Jan 18 20:37:32 mdp, yep Jan 18 20:37:41 mdp, we used to face that thanks to hwmod Jan 18 20:38:29 there was a discussion on the GPIO topic in l-o some eons back I recollect.. i think it was 4460, where the GPIO was controlling selection of voltage register and hwmod reset it resulting in lockups Jan 18 20:38:43 cbrake, you can add: HWMOD_INIT_NO_RESET Jan 18 20:38:51 mdp, there was a function for it Jan 18 20:38:56 that is supposed to be the right way Jan 18 20:38:59 * NishanthMenon searches Jan 18 20:39:04 NishanthMenon: right, I've had to hack stuff to have hwmod not kill jtag on me Jan 18 20:39:17 it's difficult to find a right way for things with hwmod Jan 18 20:39:25 ;) Jan 18 20:39:51 but sounds good Jan 18 20:40:40 omap_hwmod_no_setup_reset Jan 18 20:41:01 <_av500_> öhö: http://26-26-54.hardwarebug.org/138 Jan 18 20:42:05 mdp, http://goo.gl/YTNrz for documentation Jan 18 20:43:03 mdp, related thread http://marc.info/?t=135290702700004&r=1&w=2 Jan 18 20:43:09 yeah, I've had to read that before Jan 18 20:47:31 it's one of those things that could stand to have a property added in the omap binding Jan 18 20:47:43 yet another gap for those platforms that are board file challenged ;) Jan 18 20:48:00 mind the gap Jan 18 20:48:10 * mdp falls in front of the train Jan 18 20:48:14 what? Jan 18 20:48:40 device train? Jan 18 20:48:51 backslapping device email train Jan 18 20:48:55 the only way to go Jan 18 20:49:26 * bradfa hasn't done any dancing today :( Jan 18 20:49:32 * mdp plays naming games with DT properties Jan 18 20:49:43 bradfa, I'm dancing enough for everybody right now Jan 18 20:49:55 * bradfa congratulates mdp on dancing abilities Jan 18 20:49:57 got some upstream ready am33xx audio love Jan 18 20:50:20 only 10.2 billion patches that it depends on ;) Jan 18 20:51:02 Parsing recipes: 0%|# | ETA: 1:00:00:00:00:39 Jan 18 20:51:10 lol Jan 18 20:51:17 toneeee, get beer Jan 18 20:51:20 lots Jan 18 20:51:25 damn skippy Jan 18 20:51:33 what units is the 1 in? Jan 18 20:51:38 days? years? Jan 18 20:51:40 I didn't count Jan 18 20:51:45 nothing more ram and cores can't help with Jan 18 20:51:48 the zeros confuse me Jan 18 20:52:03 bradfa, you want to live with just ones? Jan 18 20:52:03 are they facts? Jan 18 20:52:16 mdp, 1s are nice, 0s are evil Jan 18 20:52:20 we *need* both the ones and zeroes...they are equally important friends Jan 18 20:52:26 bradfa, don't be a friday hater Jan 18 20:52:53 * bradfa hates on Fridays Jan 18 20:52:58 that was for 10.2 billion patches Jan 18 20:53:02 it's not like the old days when they did unary computing Jan 18 20:53:07 we be advanced Jan 18 20:53:10 urinary computing? Jan 18 20:53:22 yes, urinary computing Jan 18 20:53:30 um, I need to see the WC for some reason Jan 18 20:53:30 where is mlocke when you need him? :) Jan 18 20:53:34 ;) Jan 18 20:55:17 toneeee: sometimes it looks like 10.2 billion when I look at the dependency list in my patch series cover letter ;) Jan 18 20:56:10 "go grab this crap all over alsa-devel, then a pinch of beetle dung, crushed bat wings, stir" Jan 18 20:57:01 bradfa, oh, and if you were wondering, DT *can* help here ;) Jan 18 20:57:49 mdp: oh I'm with you. I'm new to this openembedded world and everything seems like 10.2 billion. I built the kernel, okay that worked well in 8 hours. Now I'm trying to build the cloud9 distro to see how it's done and it's taken a week and the fun times on anstrrom-developer list about udev are just making it more fun. I'll get there. But I'm with you on 10.2 Jan 18 20:58:24 oh a quiz Jan 18 20:58:29 you may have more than that just for cloud9 ;) Jan 18 20:58:51 mranostay, quiz time? Jan 18 20:58:53 mdp: I guess I can't count past 10.2 billion Jan 18 20:59:16 cloud9 doesn't seem to fit my definitiion of embedded.. Jan 18 20:59:19 bradfa: cape contest survey Jan 18 20:59:26 hmmm "12. If given unlimited resources, what would you create?" Jan 18 21:00:05 cape contest survey? Jan 18 21:00:10 they are asking you Jan 18 21:00:21 it seems to me its a cheap way of doing recruitment Jan 18 21:00:27 if anyone came up with a great design. Jan 18 21:00:34 they might go to hire you. Jan 18 21:00:34 mranostay, world peas! Jan 18 21:00:34 we are sending out a survey? Jan 18 21:00:35 can a beagle make world peace ? Jan 18 21:00:44 link to survey? Jan 18 21:00:55 bradfa: email Jan 18 21:01:06 toneeee: Underdog can! Jan 18 21:01:15 mranostay, apparently I'm not cool Jan 18 21:01:20 i would create a bitcoin mine that did 10.2GH/s and cost $2.00 Jan 18 21:01:29 bradfa: didn't submit anything Jan 18 21:01:43 mrpacket_: kickstarter it Jan 18 21:01:48 and run off with the money :) Jan 18 21:01:56 mrpacket_, I'd create 1 million $100 bills Jan 18 21:02:05 that'd be enough Jan 18 21:02:15 and it could be Chip on Board so we could just glob it to our arms to be our own bitcoin farm Jan 18 21:02:16 mranostay, ah, no I did not submit a cape Jan 18 21:02:35 wish I could have Jan 18 21:03:05 i've found a new mine Jan 18 21:03:12 of Bytecoins Jan 18 21:03:29 8 times the value! Jan 18 21:03:30 i'm just goign to mine the first 50B Jan 18 21:04:09 I'm too new here to know so I'll bite: do you guys actually mine bitcoins or is that just a running gag? Jan 18 21:04:40 mranostay, put "construct a Death Star" Jan 18 21:04:43 toneeee, I assume some people do Jan 18 21:04:53 +1 death star Jan 18 21:05:08 toneeee: Well, that is after all the way you get bitcoins, is to mine them. Jan 18 21:05:09 mranostay, and "because the government was too stupid to do it before I got the resources" Jan 18 21:05:35 toneeee: But of course in this sense, you are not digging through dirt and rock but through mathematics. Jan 18 21:05:55 agmlego, well, most people mining don't even half understand the maths Jan 18 21:06:01 they just own some graphics cards Jan 18 21:06:04 toneeee: And you use not dynamite and rills buyt algorithms that are easy to work one way but hard or impossible to work the other way. Jan 18 21:06:28 bradfa: Still using math--I can use a tool without understanding it. Jan 18 21:06:43 fair enough Jan 18 21:06:53 hammers are hard for me Jan 18 21:07:53 agmlego well I meant: are some of you running the mining software or is it just a joke around here that bitcoins are something to use to pay for stuff? I get it that they are not real coins. Jan 18 21:09:55 toneeee: bitcoins in general are sort of a catch-22; to have any value, people need to use them, but there is nowhere really to use them because nobody takes them because nobody uses them to buy things. Jan 18 21:10:16 The biggest places people use them are the online black market. Jan 18 21:10:21 Or so I have heard. Jan 18 21:10:36 agmlego: right; that's why I ask if they are an in-joke here. oh. got it, black market Jan 18 21:10:39 Mostly, they are a symbol of how much power you are willing to waste for e-penis cred. Jan 18 21:11:13 Which is a shame, because it would be nice to actually have a sovereign cyberspace with its own currency. Jan 18 21:12:02 anyone know where 'not-capebus' loads the firmware files from? Jan 18 21:13:09 * jkridner guesses all of the .dts files are compiled into the single .dtb and loaded out of that somehow. Jan 18 21:13:36 I think panto already left for beer. :) Jan 18 21:14:54 <_av500_> beer? Jan 18 21:15:14 got your attention now? Jan 18 21:15:40 Beagle beer? Jan 18 21:16:08 BeerCape Jan 18 21:26:23 jkridner: that would have been a guaranteed winner Jan 18 21:27:17 bradfa: we use 64bit Bytecoins in our mine.. Jan 18 21:28:33 you can come and mine anytime you like. Jan 18 21:44:34 toneeee, I'd assume most here don't bitcoin mine Jan 18 21:44:51 mostly a joke for those who don't mine Jan 18 21:45:01 probably pretty serious for those who do, though Jan 18 22:02:03 :D okay I think I get it. Jan 18 22:03:49 jkridner: dtbo files get loaded from /lib/firmware Jan 18 22:04:08 jkridner: it's all documented in Documentation/ :) Jan 18 22:04:38 koen: exact steps? Jan 18 22:05:22 koen, and the dts files are hidden in firmware/capes/ ;) Jan 18 22:05:31 sekrit dts files Jan 18 22:05:45 jkridner: even the nixie cape has one now Jan 18 22:06:03 it's now the ultimate evil vendor tree ;) Jan 18 22:08:53 of course the nixie cape is 90% PRU magic :) Jan 18 22:11:50 hi Jan 18 22:11:58 hide! Jan 18 22:12:49 are looking for a guide to install windows embedded on deagleboard xm, I did not find anything on google Jan 18 22:12:58 hehe Jan 18 22:13:08 tnx Jan 18 22:13:43 why would you want to do that? Jan 18 22:15:08 I use Adobe AIR and Adroid aletre does not meet requirements Jan 18 22:15:59 I need into using embedded windows, an installation guide, thank you? Jan 18 22:17:19 why use the xM for this? Jan 18 22:19:10 er http://beagleboard.org/project/WinCE7+BSP+for+BeagleBoard-XM/ first google result Jan 18 22:22:23 TNX you, I read that link is not understandable Jan 18 22:30:55 * XorA wonders what is wrong with the Adobe Air icon on his android :-D Jan 18 23:01:09 I have kinda of a big problem Jan 18 23:01:10 connecting to my beagleboard xm gives me a Kernel panic on my laptop Jan 18 23:01:23 I am running arch linux on the board Jan 18 23:01:28 and on my computer Jan 18 23:01:40 laptop: 3.6.11-1-ARCH Jan 18 23:02:29 the connection is through serial Jan 18 23:09:19 s/C/G/ Jan 18 23:16:02 Connecting to my beagleboard xm through serial causes my laptop to have a kernel panic, not the board Jan 18 23:16:12 does anyone know how to prevent this? Jan 18 23:16:17 fix the kernel Jan 18 23:16:36 how? what is wrong with it? Jan 18 23:16:47 you said it yourself, it crashes Jan 18 23:17:15 but I have no idea why a simple serial connection would do that Jan 18 23:17:21 and therefor no idea how to fix it Jan 18 23:17:38 the stack trace should give some clues Jan 18 23:17:38 is the connection merely Tx/Tx/+V/Gnd ? Jan 18 23:17:44 (4-wire or more) Jan 18 23:17:55 4 wires? Jan 18 23:18:01 3 is enough Jan 18 23:18:17 sorry Rx/Tx/Gnd Jan 18 23:18:25 I count 9 pins Jan 18 23:18:31 but how many are in use ? Jan 18 23:18:38 its a serial to usb Jan 18 23:19:27 usb on the laptop side ? Jan 18 23:19:31 yes Jan 18 23:19:34 then my money is on a faulty usb driver Jan 18 23:19:38 not serial per se Jan 18 23:19:45 mine too. Jan 18 23:19:46 which driver does it use? Jan 18 23:19:57 do you know how I can check? Jan 18 23:20:18 you probably have an old version of ubuntu with a usb/serial adapter kernel bug Jan 18 23:20:42 I am running archbang Jan 18 23:20:51 some combination of lsmod, lsusb, and dmesg should provide all info Jan 18 23:20:57 archbang what Jan 18 23:20:58 and bang it goes Jan 18 23:21:07 so why are you complaining Jan 18 23:21:46 haha, arch linx Jan 18 23:21:49 linux Jan 18 23:21:57 *sigh* Jan 18 23:22:02 WHAT RELEASE Jan 18 23:22:34 if you'd rather have it go pop, you need a weasel Jan 18 23:22:42 3.6.11-1-ARCH Jan 18 23:22:49 prpplague: quick design a weasel board Jan 18 23:23:08 that's fairly new Jan 18 23:23:14 what does your panic look like Jan 18 23:23:17 * prpplague opens up orcad Jan 18 23:23:35 1F capacitor overvolted should do it :-D Jan 18 23:23:36 weasel cape!!! Jan 18 23:23:37 I had this problem with an earlier kernel though Jan 18 23:23:40 get in on the money! Jan 18 23:23:49 thats why I upgraded Jan 18 23:23:52 KICKSTARTER!!! Jan 18 23:23:58 but the problem persisted Jan 18 23:24:20 doesn't mean its the same problem Jan 18 23:24:26 usbserial 30544 1 ftdi_sio Jan 18 23:24:30 weasel cape that mines bitcoins funded through kickstarter Jan 18 23:24:50 so I am guessing ftdi_sio is the driver? Jan 18 23:24:53 I've had ftdi panic before Jan 18 23:29:01 * XorA panics all the time with ftdi Jan 18 23:29:15 then I remeber to plug it into the correct board Jan 18 23:29:46 I will trying building one from source Jan 18 23:34:57 try 3.7.3 Jan 19 00:17:55 Crofton|work, http://pastebin.com/9C6UsUXf - heard of this spam bot? Jan 19 00:18:04 CCed you and me on robclark 's tree Jan 19 00:18:23 * NishanthMenon wonders if i am /dev/null for OSTC Jan 19 00:30:54 NishanthMenon: email back and he replaies Jan 19 00:31:08 NishanthMenon: I have asked to be removed before Jan 19 00:31:40 NishanthMenon, hmm, interesting.. I pasted url to that branch for someone on #dri-devel maybe 45min ago.. Jan 19 00:31:57 I wonder if something is harvesting trees/branches to build from that Jan 19 00:32:09 otoh, arm could use some more build-bots :-P Jan 19 00:33:52 intel, is it a tizzen-bot? Jan 19 00:34:27 don't think so.. looks like intel ostc Jan 19 00:35:33 anyway, had that bug too, the bot is right Jan 19 00:36:36 yeah.. arm has too high a tendency to be broken if not build with correct config Jan 19 00:36:59 well, multiarch should at least help to make it easier to compile test stuff Jan 19 00:37:14 robclark, :( Jan 19 00:37:32 robclark, someone thought using my mail id is quick solution :( Jan 19 00:37:35 NishanthMenon, not entirely sure why it got sent to you, tho? Jan 19 00:37:45 * robclark suspects it is automated somehow Jan 19 00:37:48 i got 4 emails on various warnings so far :( Jan 19 00:38:06 but no idea where it is picking your email addr from Jan 19 00:38:29 * NishanthMenon wonders if the bot maintains a potential list of /dev/null mail ids :) Jan 19 00:38:30 NishanthMenon, maybe it just knows you have a bad habit of fixing things :-P Jan 19 00:38:37 robclark, thanks :( Jan 19 00:39:41 anyways, the spam is silent for the moment, looking at it's public archives in http://lists.01.org/pipermail/kbuild/, it seems to doing a rational job .. Jan 19 00:40:11 XorA, i already did.. thanks on it.. was wondering how it got my id though.. Jan 19 00:40:48 * NishanthMenon decides to leave for the day Jan 19 00:40:59 good weekend follks.. cya later Jan 19 00:41:05 cya NishanthMenon Jan 19 01:11:33 hi robclark!!

Jan 19 01:27:28 I was disappointed that it didn't ask about my favorite color, or what my thoughts are on the solution of conflict in the mid-east. Jan 19 01:28:10 i could get interesting with the unlimited resources one Jan 19 01:28:24 that was the best question. Jan 19 01:29:32 Beaglebone controlled WMD Jan 19 01:50:54 * mranostay hands alan_o a card Jan 19 01:51:36 christmas card? news for you - that happened last month. Jan 19 01:52:37 dang it Jan 19 01:53:05 hehe Jan 19 01:53:05 valentines day? Jan 19 01:53:13 ooh lala.... Jan 19 01:53:41 how many creeper cards do I need until I get a kick/ban ? Jan 19 02:02:16 alan_o: your choice of editor is enough to be creepy :) Jan 19 02:02:34 awww man.... Jan 19 02:03:24 I actually gave emacs a good go a couple years ago. Just couldn't really get it where I wanted it. In fact, I was unable to get tabbing working in any way other than "do what I mean" Jan 19 02:04:01 very frustrating. Maybe that's where all the space-indent people come from. Too hard to set up tabs properly in emacs Jan 19 02:04:49 there's a lot of good stuff about it thought. I'm sure you find emacs creepy as well Jan 19 02:06:16 the zippy quoter isn't too bad Jan 19 02:06:36 "Yow! Legally-imposed CULTURE-reduction is CABBAGE-BRAINED!" Jan 19 02:07:32 alan_o: not as creepy Jan 19 02:12:41 alan_o: you probably like Unity as well :P Jan 19 02:12:52 mranostay: barely gave it a chance Jan 19 02:13:12 installed gnome 3, ran it for a while, then cinnamon, now KDE Jan 19 02:13:25 I'm starting to think the motivation behind creeper cards has been completely lost on this channel Jan 19 02:13:27 that's on the lappy. Desktop runs gnome 2 still (lazy) Jan 19 02:21:01 Russ: maybe add a creeper card section to the faq on the wiki Jan 19 02:25:01 Q: People keep offering me "exact steps," but then they never give me any, what's the deal? Jan 19 02:27:34 A: Change must come from within. Jan 19 02:27:46 oh wait - wrong joke. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Jan 19 02:59:59 2013
