**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Mar 05 02:59:57 2011 Mar 05 16:04:58 hi Mar 05 16:05:16 i am using the natty alpha 2 image on the beagleboard Mar 05 16:05:30 but i can't get tv out working Mar 05 16:05:55 with the original bootargs i can see it booting, led blinks etc Mar 05 16:06:11 but when i change it to omapdss.def_disp=tv Mar 05 16:06:24 and omapfb.mode=tv:ntsc (or pal) Mar 05 16:06:43 it just aits there and seems to be hanging Mar 05 16:11:10 noah1989, do you have a serial cable? where's it hanging in the boot log? Mar 05 16:12:08 i don't have a serial cable.. Mar 05 16:12:16 i could make one.. Mar 05 16:12:43 but if someone knows working bootargs i could avoid the hassle Mar 05 16:12:48 okay, with out one.. it's hard to debug... so let's ask the obvious, how did you edit the boot.scr? Mar 05 16:13:03 i edited it with vi Mar 05 16:13:24 i tried making non-relevant changes and it still workd Mar 05 16:13:36 ahh.. there's the problem... it has a crc header on it.. remove the header, and then regenerate it with mkimage.. Mar 05 16:13:38 looks like vi keeps the header intact Mar 05 16:14:11 u-boot's probally loading the boot.scr then halts when checksum fails.. Mar 05 16:14:34 so the header contains a checksum? Mar 05 16:14:41 that explains everything :D Mar 05 16:15:10 yeah, kinda a pain.. there's patches to use a different methiod with a plain text file posted to u-boot.. Mar 05 16:16:11 damn.. there is no uboot-mkimage or similar package in gentoo.. Mar 05 16:17:01 could be u-boot-tools.. Mar 05 16:18:40 ah, thanks Mar 05 16:51:56 wow, yeah! ubuntu boot screen on the head mounted display Mar 05 16:53:26 but as soon as X starts it's black again Mar 05 16:53:39 but i think i can fix that Mar 05 16:53:43 thanks again! Mar 05 18:12:02 rsalveti: you around by any chance? Mar 05 20:00:45 Hi guys. Anything really interesting going on right now? Mar 05 20:01:16 I got a 404 when trying to update linux-libc-dev from ports.ubuntu.com from maverick-security... Mar 05 20:04:56 sveinse: How did you upgrade? Mar 05 20:05:09 sveinse: does it happen again if you apt-get update && apt-get upgrade? Mar 05 20:05:15 Yes Mar 05 20:06:06 Hold on.. Perhaps not... *checking* Mar 05 20:06:13 sveinse: I checked the packages indices and they seem correct Mar 05 20:06:18 Package: linux-libc-dev Mar 05 20:06:20 Version: 2.6.35-1027.48 Mar 05 20:06:23 Filename: pool/main/l/linux/linux-libc-dev_2.6.35-1027.48_armel.deb Mar 05 20:06:26 and this package exists Mar 05 20:07:14 Yes, for some reason apt-get tries to download 2.6.35-1025.44, so I guess my apt-get update is failing here for some reason. Mar 05 20:07:32 sveinse: A log and/or your sources.list might sched some light on this Mar 05 20:07:41 sveinse: You have any error from apt-get update? Mar 05 20:12:10 Baah.. Permission errors on /var/lib/apt/lists were set to ro, so apt update didn't update the indices. (And a second error in my script suppressing apt-get update failure.) Mar 05 20:12:16 Conclusion: My bad Mar 05 20:36:00 What is the difference between armv6 and armv7? I notice Qt want armv6, but doesn't support armv7. Mar 05 20:37:17 sveinse: newer+better processor :) Mar 05 20:39:48 armin76: Yeah, and when Qt doesn't support armv7, only armv6, what does it lack? (I'm using -march=armv7-a in the compile options) Mar 05 20:50:40 sveinse: What do you mean by doesn't suppor armv7? Mar 05 20:50:49 sveinse: We're building qt in armv7 mode in Ubuntu AFAIK Mar 05 20:55:39 lool, if -march=armv7-a is armv7 mode, yes. But for some reason, you cannot specify armv7 when configuring Qt, only armv6. There exists some inner loop implementations specific for armv6. I know that's a Q for Nokia, but I was curious to the difference between armv6 and armv7 Mar 05 20:57:10 or perhaps more correctly: some machine specific implementations, not just inner loops implementations Mar 05 21:46:13 hey guys Mar 05 21:47:26 I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my mininetbook, who aparently has a arm processor, anybody knows if can be installed on a ALLFINE mini-notbook? I haven't managed to install it so far. Mar 05 22:14:34 sveinse: armv7 doesn't exist Mar 05 22:14:44 sveinse: It's armv7-a you want Mar 05 22:15:00 sveinse: actually, armv7 does exist; my bad Mar 05 22:15:15 sveinse: I don't know what armv7 means, but you probably want armv7-a Mar 06 02:51:26 So, if all goes well I'll be attempting to fire up Ubuntu-ARM on a Nook Color. Is there a soft-keyboard in the stock arm images? Mar 06 02:52:07 I don't have BT or USB, so my only interaction initially is going to be via touchscreen **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Mar 06 02:59:57 2011
