**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Sep 24 02:59:57 2011 Sep 24 18:32:14 hi everybody. i am having prouble with the audio on pandaboard a2 running ubuntu 10.10. could anyone help me? Sep 24 19:12:59 hello, anyone know if there are there any repos for mplayer ? Sep 24 19:38:51 anyone in here playing with the [h,j]acked up ubuntu on the motorola bionic? Sep 24 21:17:25 where is the best place to get mplayer? Sep 24 21:45:32 sniperjo_: apt-get install mplayer? Sep 24 21:46:09 sniperjo_: It's in universe. Sep 24 21:46:16 infinity: i couldn't find it Sep 24 21:46:32 Do you have only main enabled? Sep 24 21:46:41 cat /etc/apt/sources.list Sep 24 21:46:57 yeah i do Sep 24 21:46:59 If it only lists main, or main+restricted, add universe and multiverse to that, apt-get update, and enjoy. Sep 24 21:47:12 i ended up putting a debian source in to find it, but its not working great! Sep 24 21:47:27 Yeah, don't do that. :/ Sep 24 21:47:44 Debian and Ubuntu are source-compatible, not binary-compatible (this is true on all arches, not just ARM). Sep 24 21:49:05 infinity: ah great thanks, i guess i should apt-get remove --purge them before i install it again Sep 24 21:49:23 It probably pulled in a bunch of dependencies too. Sep 24 21:49:54 You can learn about apt pinning to forcefully sidegrade out of the packages from Debian, or look at /var/log/dpkg.log to sort out what new stuff you got when, and remove those. Sep 24 21:51:18 but if i know what packages i installed after adding debian, i suppose i can just remove them with dependancies ? Sep 24 21:51:37 If you know all the packages you installed, yes. Sep 24 21:51:41 Hence my dpkg.log suggestion. Sep 24 21:52:04 Though, if you still have a terminal with apt saying "will install X Y Z", that's the simplest. :P Sep 24 21:53:39 infinity: ok great, and just out of interest, I have angstrom on a device which i have chroot'ed with ubuntu, is there any way to automatically chroot into ubuntu and run something, (as I've been unsuccessful in installing ubuntu straight out ) Sep 24 21:56:17 Not sure precisely what you mean. Sep 24 21:57:29 You can certainly do command line things like "chroot /chroot/ubuntu /path/to/command", but if those things require DISPLAY to be set, or sockets in the root filesystem, you need to do some clever tricks to futz with your environment or bind-mount files. Sep 24 21:58:59 infinity: yeah i have managed to do that, i was just wondering if i had to chroot and run stuff manually! Sep 24 22:05:09 infinity: still no mplayer, I'm on deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports lucid main universe multiverse , gave me a notice about unmet dependancies Sep 24 22:13:56 I'm using oneiric here, not lucid. It's definitely installable in oneiric. I'd be surprised if it wasn't in lucid, though. Sep 24 22:14:09 Do you still have Debian sources in your list? Sep 24 22:14:31 (It's also possible you still have Debian packages installed that are causing unresolvable conflicts) Sep 24 22:16:18 infinity: ive just just added the maverick to the sources and its there now Sep 24 22:21:39 FWIW, I just debootstrapped a lucid chroot and mplayer installs fine. Sep 24 22:22:01 So, yeah, you probably had some newer libraries or something (from Debian) that were causing a bit of a dependency issue. Sep 24 22:22:08 But if maverick solves it for you, whatever. :P Sep 24 22:22:50 hmmmmmm Sep 24 22:23:20 Anyhow, I'm off to do weekendy things. Have fun fiddling. Sep 24 22:23:28 infinity: out of interest, what video driver do you use ? Sep 24 22:23:47 infinity: ok! Sep 24 22:23:53 infinity: thanks for your help Sep 24 23:03:24 is there a mongodb build for ubuntu on armel? Sep 24 23:11:08 Seems to be only on x86. Though I'm not sure why. Sep 24 23:17:02 :( Sep 24 23:17:15 I did find one bug report just now though it seems to be resolved Sep 24 23:19:59 https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-2883 Sep 24 23:20:35 this pandaboard makes a great webserver for webapps written in go :) Sep 24 23:21:07 The mongodb server depends on both little-endianness and unaligned Sep 24 23:21:08 memory access, which I believe means it can only work on i386 and Sep 24 23:21:08 amd64, so yes, we're not portable beyond those. (It has compiled for Sep 24 23:21:09 me in the past on powerpc, but it won't run there.) Sep 24 23:21:37 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=570076 Sep 24 23:21:38 Debian bug 570076 in mongodb "mongodb - Arbitrary architecture specification" [Serious,Fixed] Sep 24 23:21:50 ok Sep 24 23:21:57 I'll have to use a real live database :) Sep 24 23:22:11 Or sqlite. Sep 24 23:22:35 Or BDB. Sep 24 23:22:53 Or any number of file-based approaches that aren't an annoyingly large RDBMS. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Sep 25 02:59:57 2011
