**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Jul 27 02:59:57 2011 Jul 27 03:01:04 rsalveti:yes Jul 27 03:01:32 Mitnick: can you paste what is the error you're getting while trying to apt-get install ubuntu-omap4-extras? Jul 27 03:02:32 pls wait for a while Jul 27 03:12:47 my sdcard is so slow and make my ubuntu-are slow as a snail Jul 27 03:13:12 that's not the sd card Jul 27 03:13:47 pandaboard sdhc seems to be highly inefficient Jul 27 03:14:56 http://pastebin.com/5bej3zbQ Jul 27 03:15:30 any optimize? Jul 27 03:16:25 no, not really.. I have some of the benchmarked fastest cards on the planet here and they run very slow on panda.. on efikamx and pc (with a pcie hotplug mmc controller from ricoh which is very common) they are usable Jul 27 03:17:23 I don't mean "awesome", but.. if my 800Mhz A8 can install 80 packages in 40 minutes on an SD, then pandaboard taking 6 hours is just ridiculous on the same card Jul 27 03:17:37 yep Jul 27 03:17:57 very very slowly Jul 27 03:18:38 i have the same situation as you Jul 27 03:19:55 : i have paste the error on http://pastebin.com/5bej3zbQ , but now i have fix up it manually Jul 27 03:20:11 Mitnick: what did you do? Jul 27 03:20:44 download the right package and use dpkg -i to install Jul 27 03:20:56 Mitnick: ok, seems we just need to update the meta-package Jul 27 03:20:58 let me try that Jul 27 03:21:30 yep, wrong depends on server Jul 27 03:25:09 Mitnick: pushed the fix, should be in place in about 10 mins Jul 27 03:25:57 thank you very much Jul 27 05:40:59 Hi Jul 27 05:42:03 Trying to install 11.04 prebuild headless on beagle xM rev C and get error Resizing, please wait... sh: X: unknown operand Enabling serial console login cp: can't create '/root/etc/init/serial.conf': Read-only file system Jul 27 05:42:25 Does anybody know how to fix it? Jul 27 06:19:24 How to test ducati on ubuntu-arm?

Thank you Jul 27 08:25:22 my headset no work Jul 27 08:26:06 i try to amixer patch , but still no work Jul 27 08:28:20 any help ? Jul 27 08:28:51 the board is? Jul 27 08:30:46 pandaboard Jul 27 08:32:29 A2 Jul 27 08:32:54 and ubuntu headless is? Jul 27 08:33:01 (version) Jul 27 08:33:04 10.10 Jul 27 08:38:33 http://pastebin.com/rymKXhAq Jul 27 08:39:24 amixer output Jul 27 08:40:57 you have problems with input or output? Jul 27 08:41:50 output just noise Jul 27 08:48:38 try to install 11.04, it should works out of the box, then extract sound settings with these commands http://www.bstegmaier.de/wiki/index.php/Save_and_restore_alsa_volume_settings Jul 27 08:48:56 save the file, copy it to your 10.10 and you will get sound Jul 27 08:49:26 another way is to play a song and while is playing set alsamixer params Jul 27 08:55:05 or better install netbook 11.04, get output and input correctly working, store alsamixer settings and restore the file in your 10.10 Jul 27 09:03:45 Spider-Pork:thx Jul 27 09:04:54 if you want to know exactly the differences in alsamixer between 10.10 and netbook 11.04 you can store alsamixer from them and then do a diff Jul 27 09:05:23 yep Jul 27 09:05:33 i think in this way you'll get exactly the right parameters Jul 27 09:05:52 is in my todo list, i'm really busy at the moment Jul 27 10:32:23 Hi All Jul 27 10:33:13 why sudo apt-get install libegl1-sgx-omap3 libgles1-sgx-omap3 libgles2-sgx-omap3 returning the message "unable to locate package" Jul 27 10:33:47 (the same i have installed many times before without any error) Jul 27 10:34:26 (ubuntu-natty,beagleboard) Jul 27 20:49:58 Yo Jul 27 20:50:46 I got a PoV Mobii 7 Gen II, does anybody know that device? Jul 27 20:51:01 It's got an ARM9 Rockchip cPU Jul 27 20:51:13 I'm trying to put Ubuntu on it Jul 27 20:51:22 came here from the ubuntuwiki Jul 27 21:01:49 SotaSystems: you'll need ubuntu <9.04 at least Jul 27 21:02:05 can you help me with that? Jul 27 21:02:19 as I never did anything ARM related, I'm pretty new to that stuff you know Jul 27 21:02:50 I guess I'll need to take a netbook image Jul 27 21:03:15 err that won't be that easy Jul 27 21:03:26 hm.. Jul 27 21:03:33 it needs the kernel to be ported to this generation of rockchip Jul 27 21:03:36 i doubt that has been done Jul 27 21:04:11 oh, so it's actualy not possible? Jul 27 21:04:25 oh everything is possible Jul 27 21:04:31 but you'll need good skills. Jul 27 21:04:48 what kind of skills? ^ Jul 27 21:04:58 Well, it runs Android, so re-using an Android kernel isn't the end of the world. Jul 27 21:04:59 it's a Rockchip 2818 Jul 27 21:05:09 sure, as it runs linux already Jul 27 21:05:27 2.6.25 to be more precise Jul 27 21:05:36 Actually, Ubuntu doesn't support ARM9. We only currently support Arm Cortex-A8/9 (Armv7). You might have more luck with Debian. Jul 27 21:05:46 infinity: we're speaking of an old rockchip Jul 27 21:05:50 not the last generation Jul 27 21:06:23 SotaSystems: well i don't know rockchip at all, but usually kernels are really device dependant Jul 27 21:06:23 GrueMaster but in Debian I could just sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ^^ Jul 27 21:06:26 not just chipset dependant Jul 27 21:06:32 phh: No, I mean he doesn't need to do any kernel porting. But yes, the part where it's ARMv5 is problematic, and probably screams "use Debian". Jul 27 21:06:50 I see.. Jul 27 21:06:52 infinity: i mean there is no ""official"" (ie by rockchip) android on those chips Jul 27 21:07:05 phh: The tablet he has is running Android. Jul 27 21:07:08 (i don't know if there is any android at all acutally) Jul 27 21:07:10 Yep Jul 27 21:07:12 uh ? Jul 27 21:07:13 phh: He can just yank the kernel image out of it. :P Jul 27 21:07:13 wtf. Jul 27 21:07:15 Android 2.1 Jul 27 21:07:18 infinity: yeah definitely Jul 27 21:07:20 but hum Jul 27 21:07:43 There has been a flood of those tablets on Amazon recently. Jul 27 21:07:45 ok google tells me it's an arm11 Jul 27 21:07:56 Sub $100 (US). Jul 27 21:07:57 I got the tablet for free from my work xD Jul 27 21:08:10 so for a little boredom I thought let's do something with it Jul 27 21:08:18 it's not phh Jul 27 21:08:19 phh: Google told me the 2818 is ARM9. Jul 27 21:08:23 Free is definitely a good price. :D Jul 27 21:08:27 the package even says it's an ARM9 Jul 27 21:08:40 an ARM9 Rockchip 2818 600 MhZ Jul 27 21:08:46 true Jul 27 21:09:55 ok they haven't evolved as fast as i thought Jul 27 21:10:44 For arm tablets that may run Ubuntu, you need one with a stronger processor though. I personally have a Nook Color (OMAP 3629). Running stock Android, it is 600mhz, but hackers have clocked them up to 1.2Ghz before they start to overheat. Jul 27 21:11:02 I think they did, but my tablet is a little older (I think it's been manufactured in 2010 or beginning of 2011.. idk but I got it last week) Jul 27 21:11:44 I think that'll drain the battery very fast and it's not really good for the cpu =x Jul 27 21:12:23 Using the android kernel, you should be able to cobble together an image based on debian though. Jul 27 21:12:23 Probably, but it's fun. And what else are you going to do with obsolete toys? :) Jul 27 21:12:30 And thanks for all that info Jul 27 21:13:03 GrueMaster I also have the firmware already dumped on my desktop Jul 27 21:13:17 somewhere I read that you can modify it.. but the link was dead =x Jul 27 21:13:45 Dead links have been the bane of my work lately. :( Jul 27 21:13:57 oh well... it's 2011 Jul 27 21:14:19 Try the wayback machine though. It may have the link you are loocking for. Jul 27 21:14:30 *looking Jul 27 21:15:11 wait.. Jul 27 21:15:29 if I mash debian into the android firmware.. Jul 27 21:15:43 it's possible to do an ubuntu netinstall, isn't it? Jul 27 21:15:54 well.. basicaly I could also take Lubuntu Jul 27 21:16:12 SotaSystems: The problem is that any recent Ubuntu just plain won't work on your device. Jul 27 21:16:29 SotaSystems: We target a newer instruction set than Debian does. Jul 27 21:16:38 All of the ubuntu pool is compiled for newer processors. Highly probable that nothing would work. Jul 27 21:16:51 Ah. I see Jul 27 21:17:01 but older distributions could work then? Jul 27 21:17:03 Kind of like trying to run the latest x86-64 code on a P5. Jul 27 21:17:55 well.. then a Debian is fine, too Jul 27 21:18:06 Well, theoretically, Ubuntu 9.04 would work (provided a working kernel of course), but it is unsupported. No updates. Jul 27 21:18:21 yeah.. it's outdated Jul 27 21:18:23 SotaSystems: You'll generally be happier (IMO) with new Debian rather than old Ubuntu. Lots has changed since we dropped ARMv5 support. Jul 27 21:18:30 Yes Jul 27 21:18:32 At least debian would give you the current software. Jul 27 21:19:10 Thanks everyone for all your support! Jul 27 21:19:18 let's try debian then. Jul 28 01:56:30 anyone using ubuntu-arm 10.10? Jul 28 01:56:42 marverick **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Jul 28 02:59:57 2011
