**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Dec 30 02:59:57 2011 Dec 30 04:53:19 When I put the kernel 3.1 for at91sam9263 board I got the error : mtd->read(0x100 bytes from 0x400000) returned ECC error Dec 30 04:54:59 When Displaying Nand information it says: atmel_nand atmel_nand: No DMA support for NAND access pls help me! Dec 30 07:21:09 howdy Dec 30 07:21:43 I need a bit of help with an Openembedded distro made for this device Dec 30 07:22:00 It is using the IceWM window manager Dec 30 07:22:42 I seem unable to find the games folder where freedoom is located Dec 30 09:04:26 morning all Dec 30 09:05:10 morning Dec 30 09:25:17 hello Dec 30 09:26:18 I m building x11-image for mini2440 with uClibc..... but I getting this errors while "bitbake x11-image" ........ git ls-remote git://repo.or.cz/linux-2.6/mini2440.git mini2440-stable-v2.6.30 failed with signal 128, output: Dec 30 09:28:33 http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1426385 Dec 30 09:33:48 oh well, might as well disregard my question Dec 30 09:33:49 good night Dec 30 10:12:22 gm Dec 30 10:21:59 hi eFfeM Dec 30 12:05:21 hi eFfeM Dec 30 12:20:41 hi EsbenH, enjoying vacation ? Dec 30 13:03:06 eFfeM: well, enjoying the quiet office @work today :-) Dec 30 13:03:20 ah that is also good Dec 30 13:03:50 actually my mgmt convinced me that I should lower the # of vacation days left so decided to take off between xmas and new year Dec 30 13:04:06 good time to do some dangling tasks at home Dec 30 13:04:26 and upstream some code Dec 30 13:05:29 with almost everybody away for vacation, I have found some time to do real work again :-) Dec 30 13:07:38 * ant_work is only doing backups today :/ Dec 30 14:13:25 then it should be ant_backup ;-) Dec 30 14:17:01 heh, I'm getting all sorts of work done while everyone else is on vacation too :) Dec 30 14:19:13 heh Dec 30 14:19:30 and no traffic jams Dec 30 15:20:22 Hi. I have just cloned oe from official repo git://github.com/openembedded/openembedded.git . I would use oe for my pandaboard. What branch should I use? Thank you Dec 30 15:22:15 Spider-Pork: probably best choice is maintenance branch (or oe-core but no idea what it takes to get panda going on oe-core) Dec 30 15:22:46 eFfeM, fyi, meta-ti has a pandaboard machine. we haven't had any luck with its u-boot on a non-es panda though Dec 30 15:23:19 eFfeM ---> 2011.03-maintenance ? Dec 30 15:23:28 Spider-Pork: yes that is the one I meant Dec 30 15:23:45 eFfeM thank you Dec 30 15:23:58 but you might encounter some issues when doing a clean build, I noticed the other day that binutils had problems fetching Dec 30 15:24:01 alternate use master Dec 30 15:24:15 eFfeM ok thank you again :) Dec 30 15:24:18 kergoth: haven't played with panda and hardly with oe-core so can't comment on it Dec 30 15:24:22 Spider-Pork: yw Dec 30 15:24:56 I'm new to oe but i found it very good to customize builds and handle packages Dec 30 15:24:59 kergoth: somehow I feel some doc is lacking on how to glue the layers together and what is where, but it could also be that I didn't dig deep enough Dec 30 15:25:15 Spider-Pork: it is, actually I feel that is the strongest point Dec 30 15:26:24 eFfeM, agreed. the layer index shows you the pieces, but not pulling the bits together. you're best off using a setup someone else has already created for that. e.g. the angstrom setup scripts, or https://github.com/kergoth/oe-core-template or one others have done, imo Dec 30 15:26:52 ah yes, forgot the shr setup scripts Dec 30 15:33:49 eFfeM I'm using oe for my overo board too. On gumstix website they suggest to use bitbake 1.12.0. On oe website suggest to use 1.10.2 . What version should I use? Dec 30 15:34:26 kergoth: it also seems the layer dependencies are not always clear and not as seems logical, e.g. I seem to recall some ti bsp's needed meta-oe; personally I expect a bsp to be fairly orthogonal to anything, and probably only depend on oe-core Dec 30 15:34:38 not sure what you mean by that. Dec 30 15:34:48 meta-ti is a layer with bsps Dec 30 15:34:55 don't know of any ti ones outside of it, myself Dec 30 15:35:04 but i agree, we need an explicit way to declare dependencies Dec 30 15:35:19 Spider-Pork: you can use either, I use 1.12.0 for quite a while now (you should not use 1.14) Dec 30 15:35:48 ok thank you :) Dec 30 15:36:43 does 1.14 not work with the maintenance branch? Dec 30 15:36:48 kergoth: meta-ti seems to depend on meta-oe (and that seems odd to me), I vaguely recall a discussion on the list from a few days (or maybe a week ago) Dec 30 15:36:53 iirc 1.12 didn't have parallel parsing, *extremely* painful Dec 30 15:36:59 kergoth: no, found this the hard way Dec 30 15:37:12 should be fixed, imo. will add to the ever growing todo.. Dec 30 15:37:15 heh Dec 30 15:37:27 1.14 does not allow # to comment out lines within image recipes, and it also did not parse at all for me Dec 30 15:37:47 ah, i forgot about the # inside variable definitions change :\ Dec 30 15:37:50 hmm Dec 30 15:38:08 well, worst case we could create a maintenance branch and revert that commit, but that isn't pretty :) Dec 30 15:38:22 honestly whoever cares should just fix the metadata for that, it's not that difficult, just a little time consuming Dec 30 15:39:53 kergoth: koen a week ago in response to paul Dec 30 15:40:03 > Just out of interest, why does meta-texasinstruments depend on meta-angstrom? Dec 30 15:40:04 It needs extra things in overrides and reuses tasks from there. Dec 30 15:40:17 and I suspect meta-angstrom will depend on meta-oe Dec 30 15:40:34 that's really unintuitive, I don't like that meta-ti - meta-angstrom thing *at all* Dec 30 15:40:40 bsps are supposed to be orthogonal to distro Dec 30 15:40:44 by design, thats how oe is supposed to work Dec 30 15:41:26 * kergoth uses meta-ti without meta-angstrom, will see if it ever blows up as a result Dec 30 15:42:00 kergoth: I fully agree; Dec 30 15:43:07 kergoth: this was the thread the above quote came from: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2011-December/006204.html Dec 30 15:43:54 JaMa|Off, for midori it's indeed deps, I install that package: task-xfce-base and it works Dec 30 15:44:24 and I feel this dependency is bad practice and counter intuitive, but the chance to convince koen about that is fairly close to zero so I didn't even bother Dec 30 15:44:38 denisATeukrea: you mean it's missing some dependency and that's why it segfaults? Dec 30 15:45:00 however if it needs things from meta-angstrom and these are more generally applicable they should probably migrate to oe-core Dec 30 15:45:07 JaMa|Off, yes indeed I was right then Dec 30 15:45:49 and the backtrace I got confirmed it has something to do with icons Dec 30 15:45:54 eFfeM, agreed :\ Dec 30 15:45:54 maybe it lack an icon theme Dec 30 15:45:58 or something like that Dec 30 15:46:13 kergoth: I just gave 1.14 with maintenance branch a stab and it would just hang after a while (roughly at the same place), strace told that select would not get any data Dec 30 15:46:24 but only return timeout Dec 30 15:47:34 denisATeukrea: do you have log what was installed with task-xfce-base? Dec 30 15:47:53 hmm, interesting Dec 30 15:47:56 maybe not Dec 30 15:48:05 I think that's the bug with parse errors not always propogating up Dec 30 15:48:08 wil llook into it Dec 30 15:48:36 no because I just restarted the serial console Dec 30 15:49:56 denisATeukrea: ok Dec 30 15:50:35 but I've opkg info Dec 30 15:50:37 kergoth: could be, I seem to recall that the time recipe had a problem parsing with 1.14, but I moved that one away Dec 30 15:51:05 http://pastie.org/private/quae1fz8bkfdhj66mjnklw Dec 30 15:51:13 I also was in xfce46 Dec 30 15:51:26 maybe some env variables or something like that could be the cause too Dec 30 15:51:38 let me try in enlightenment Dec 30 15:51:43 all that is under angstrom Dec 30 15:52:07 denisATeukrea: but that will be some dependency of xfce* like that theme or gnome-keyring or something Dec 30 15:52:44 like icon-theme Dec 30 15:52:48 yes indeed Dec 30 15:53:42 let me reinstall it Dec 30 16:04:54 JaMa, new tests: Dec 30 16:05:03 * in illume it crashes Dec 30 16:05:12 * in xfce46 it doesn't crash Dec 30 16:05:18 with the same installed packages Dec 30 16:05:45 maybe icon theme issues Dec 30 16:05:48 or something like that Dec 30 16:25:24 otavio: Hi, why both? Dec 30 16:25:35 otavio: why not add it only in task-basic as I suggested? Dec 30 16:25:47 JaMa: xserver-nodm-init and xserver-nodm-init-systemd Dec 30 16:25:59 why? Dec 30 16:26:24 add xserver-nodm-init in task-x11 and xserver-nodm-init-systemd only in task-basic Dec 30 16:26:44 so people using sysvinit and not task-basic will get only one at least Dec 30 16:27:00 JaMa: the basic shouldn't depends on xserver-nodm-init Dec 30 16:27:20 JaMa: how will i have a basic system without x? Dec 30 16:27:23 then distributions can set VIRTUAL_RUNTIME Dec 30 16:27:52 otavio: does task-basic pull task-x11? Dec 30 16:28:03 JaMa: so leave xserver-nodm-init-systemd in task-x11 and distros set VIRTUAL-RUNTIME Dec 30 16:28:28 JaMa: meta-oe is almost forcing use of systemd nowadays Dec 30 16:29:02 hmm I'm overriding VIRTUAL-RUNTIME from shr already so I don't mind Dec 30 16:29:24 but sofar it was easy for others to keep off systemd, now it will be harder Dec 30 16:29:33 JaMa: I don't use tasks so I don't mind either Dec 30 16:29:54 yes Dec 30 16:29:59 agreed Dec 30 16:30:18 * kergoth uses meta-oe but none of its tasks Dec 30 16:30:35 kergoth: me too Dec 30 16:32:20 mostly i stick to task-core-boot + various package groups we define and add to IMAGE_FEATURES Dec 30 16:33:42 kergoth: but then you have a 'company-common-image.inc' and your end images reuse it? Dec 30 16:35:59 pretty much, though it doesn't do very much, just covers the core packages we need + task-core-boot. then we have opt-in sets of packages fro the user to add via image features in their local.conf Dec 30 16:44:21 forcing systemd is not really nice for those making dedicated images Dec 30 16:44:42 eFfeM: fully agree but task-basic already does it Dec 30 16:44:57 * eFfeM just needs recipes and constructs his own images and starts whatever is needed from init Dec 30 16:45:23 eFfeM: me too (but we uses systemd for some) Dec 30 16:45:32 otavio: I don't use tasks, I roll my own images as I want full control for what goes into the image Dec 30 16:45:47 eFfeM: we also do not uses tasks Dec 30 16:45:57 eFfeM: and I even forget those heh Dec 30 16:47:39 tasks aren't of much use unless you want to provide the user the ability to install groups of packages at runtime Dec 30 16:48:05 otherwise there are easier mechanisms, and it avoids the indirection and need to rebuild the task recipes Dec 30 16:48:05 heh Dec 30 16:48:51 kergoth: now with package groups, it seems they lose a lot of usefulness Dec 30 16:49:09 kergoth: one good thing from tasks are for upgrade path support Dec 30 16:49:17 kergoth: it is easier with tasks Dec 30 16:49:56 otavio: 3/3 looks the same.. Dec 30 16:50:05 somewhat. individual packages can upgrade fine, and there are ways (e.g. replaces, conflicts) to address splitting and other package reorgs Dec 30 16:51:45 JaMa: yes; didn't change as it is done by a virtual runtime. read 0/3 please Dec 30 16:52:18 otavio: then add both Dec 30 16:52:28 so it works without distro Dec 30 16:52:43 JaMa: won't work as xserver-nodm-init-systemd depends on systemd Dec 30 16:52:51 JaMa: that's the problem Dec 30 16:53:22 hmm Dec 30 17:06:01 otavio, hi you got patches in meta-freescale, so I wondered how to contribute to it.... Dec 30 17:06:27 there is no README telling how to contribute Dec 30 17:06:35 meta-freescale? Dec 30 17:06:41 how does that one compare to meta-fsl-ppc? Dec 30 17:06:51 eFfeM I apologize for my "noobs" questions: what image should I use for my pandaboard? I would have a minimal system, without X. Thank you Dec 30 17:06:52 git://github.com/aalonso/meta-freescale.git Dec 30 17:07:00 it's for arm Dec 30 17:07:19 I'll look if it's in the layer page Dec 30 17:07:33 seem not Dec 30 17:13:12 Spider-Pork: you could use minimal-image Dec 30 17:13:40 eFfeM I've launched with console-base-image Dec 30 17:13:52 probably also ok and pretty small Dec 30 17:14:12 thank you eFfeM I think I'll have result of build tomorrow Dec 30 17:14:35 depends on your system, if it is fast it'll probably take 1 to 1.5 hrs Dec 30 17:14:49 quadcore with 4GB of RAM Dec 30 17:15:03 -j 8 Dec 30 17:15:12 but you might fall into the binutils problem where the official mirror does not contain the package any more Dec 30 17:15:23 if you used angstrom distro it might fetch things from the mirror tho Dec 30 17:15:37 ok thank you for the tip Dec 30 17:26:03 eFfeM the package exist but its size is 0K. Should add a to package name Dec 30 17:37:27 denisATeukrea: I've been working with alonso Dec 30 17:37:45 denisATeukrea: and in fact I have a very more cleaner branch then him nowadays Dec 30 17:37:45 ok Dec 30 17:38:11 my fix is just to be able to build xf86-video-imxfb Dec 30 17:38:21 because it looks for kernel includes Dec 30 17:38:22 denisATeukrea: if you want to look at it, check https://github.com/OSSystems/meta-freescale Dec 30 17:38:26 so I added a -I Dec 30 17:38:37 ok Dec 30 17:38:49 denisATeukrea: so you might send me the patch and I put it into my branch Dec 30 17:38:59 denisATeukrea: likewise is also providing fixes to it too Dec 30 17:39:04 ok Dec 30 17:39:26 denisATeukrea: so we avoid duplication of work Dec 30 17:39:53 so I send the patch directly to you? Dec 30 17:40:02 ok I'll do that Dec 30 17:40:20 denisATeukrea: or do a branch in github and i pick from it Dec 30 17:40:34 I'll do git-send-email Dec 30 17:41:00 but I'll look if it applies against your branch first Dec 30 17:41:54 denisATeukrea: you might use github and do a pull request Dec 30 17:42:03 denisATeukrea: so we can use it to review the patches Dec 30 17:42:13 denisATeukrea: i use it all the time :-) Dec 30 17:42:21 hi, I'm moving my angstrom setup and I've that issue: Dec 30 17:42:23 Parsing recipes: 0% | | ETA: --:--:-- Dec 30 17:42:26 it's blocked here Dec 30 17:42:28 any ideas Dec 30 17:42:40 GNUtoo: network? Dec 30 17:42:46 ok Dec 30 17:42:59 I don't think so, it's angstrom, there are no autorev there Dec 30 17:43:20 GNUtoo, it could be any parse error. there's a bug in the parsing that doesn't always show you the errors :( Dec 30 17:43:31 ah ok I guess it's that then Dec 30 17:43:37 I'm going to try to find it soon. I verified that every parse error i could think of resulted in user seeing the error in the past Dec 30 17:43:43 so its likely something recent in bitbake that interacted with it Dec 30 17:43:51 richard was looking into the other day, I haven't had a chance Dec 30 17:43:56 eFfeM solved modifying locally md5sum and sha Dec 30 17:44:03 the package is still avaiable Dec 30 17:44:09 any ideas how to debug that -DDD is not helpfull Dec 30 17:44:21 hmm Dec 30 17:45:43 ctrl+c gives some infos Dec 30 17:46:15 http://www.pastie.org/private/vhmozyv1apuea7pcr1qcia Dec 30 17:46:35 GNUtoo, the suspicion is that the error is resulting in the parser shutting down in an unclean fashion, which is causing the parsing processes to exit before they've flushed all their log messages out to the UI Dec 30 17:46:44 need to dive in and see if such is actually the case though Dec 30 17:46:53 thats just the working theory based on richard's investigation Dec 30 17:46:58 does seem probable, though Dec 30 17:47:32 ok Dec 30 17:49:39 hmmm now at the third try I've that: Dec 30 17:49:40 ERROR: Unable to parse /home/gnutoo/embedded/oe/oe-core/repos/meta-bug/recipes/linux/linux-bug20-linaro_2.6.35.bb Dec 30 17:49:54 okay, the second two tracebacks are on the way out, in the attempt to dump messages and clean up. the first is interesting though Dec 30 17:49:56 so I'll look Dec 30 17:50:17 it means your interruption was while it was in the PLY code parsing the variables, which makes you think it hadn't stalled at that point Dec 30 17:50:21 maybe you interrupted too early :) Dec 30 17:50:31 ( http://www.pastie.org/private/mymws5ezyjfaedjbxajda) Dec 30 17:50:53 ok, should I clean tmpdir and retry (the tmpdir is mostly empty) Dec 30 17:51:16 ah ha Dec 30 17:51:19 i know what your problem is Dec 30 17:51:26 i sent a patch for this to meta-ti Dec 30 17:51:39 ok Dec 30 17:51:47 It also uses the wrog repos dir Dec 30 17:51:49 strange Dec 30 17:52:18 bingo, found it Dec 30 17:52:20 https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/meta-ti/2011-December/000270.html Dec 30 17:52:24 apply that. Dec 30 17:52:25 thanks a lot Dec 30 17:52:29 it'll almost certainly fix it Dec 30 17:52:35 see later, bye Dec 30 17:52:36 ah ok Dec 30 17:52:44 (also, weird that the other folks using meta-ti haven't seen it, i see it pretty regularly without tha tpatch) Dec 30 17:52:54 if it fixes it, go poke koen :) Dec 30 17:52:55 kergoth, did you ever get a fancy chair? Dec 30 17:53:07 Crofton|work, indeed, I spent $1400 on a herman miller embody (ow) Dec 30 17:53:17 worth it? Dec 30 17:53:31 Crofton|work, the pain that i used to get every single day in the middle of my back between the shoulder blades was better within one day of using it, and almost entirely gone by 2 Dec 30 17:53:50 * kergoth was pretty shocked at that Dec 30 17:54:16 i did have to make myself sit properly, thats probably part of it by itself :) not hunching over the keyboard Dec 30 17:54:50 * kergoth apparently has slight arthritis in his upper back, oddly enough Dec 30 17:54:59 doing sports helps too :p Dec 30 17:55:10 yeah it does Dec 30 17:55:22 i started doing just some basic *stretches* in the morning, big difference Dec 30 17:55:31 I also forgott to update bblayers.conf Dec 30 17:55:32 thanks a lot Dec 30 17:55:38 np Dec 30 17:55:52 (saw the defconfig message in one of your interrupted tracebacks :) Dec 30 18:04:42 hi Dec 30 18:13:22 In an OpenEmbedded distro, where would you normally find bsd games like free doom installed? Dec 30 18:24:08 kergoth: sit properly like this? :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Brv1zwRZrxU Dec 30 18:25:27 hah, cute Dec 30 18:25:57 speaking of which, i need to raise my monitor :) Dec 30 18:26:29 * JaMa received that one in e-mail from work today :) Dec 30 18:30:13 I need to rearrange my desk Dec 30 18:30:29 the monitor is too far back etc Dec 30 18:31:42 * kergoth nods Dec 30 18:31:54 i should clean my desk, so i can actually see the desk top again Dec 30 18:33:09 I have the monitor in a corner, whcih was great when montiors were deep Dec 30 18:33:26 now I need to move it closer to me and I have alot opf wasted space behind it Dec 30 18:34:08 that video advocates upright. there was some info recently to sit slightly reclined Dec 30 18:34:44 http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/6187080.stm Dec 30 18:35:10 interesting Dec 30 19:19:41 if it fixes it, go poke koen :) <- what should I do exactly, respond to a particular thread? Dec 30 19:29:19 GNUtoo, don't worry about it, i pestered him and submitted an updated patch Dec 30 19:29:40 ok Dec 30 19:29:45 thanks a lot Dec 30 19:30:05 np Dec 31 00:40:53 Hello all. Is this the place to discuss real open-source operating systems for smart phones? Dec 31 00:41:34 I just learned today that the only thing that Android has in common with GNU/Linux is that it uses a (modified vresion of the) linux kernel, but none of the GNU userspace! **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Dec 31 02:59:57 2011
