**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed May 28 02:59:59 2014 May 28 15:53:02 hi there May 28 15:53:36 i'm trying to compile webos as described on webos-ports.org May 28 15:54:29 however when i try to "MACHINE=mako bb webos-ports-dev-image" May 28 15:55:16 i get an error message about sanity checker detecting a potential misconfiguration. May 28 15:55:35 the steps before went through w/o a problem. May 28 15:55:59 also i managed to compile and run the desktop version as described on openwebosproject.org May 28 15:56:15 any idea where the problem may be? May 28 16:06:00 morphis might be able to help you :) May 28 16:06:30 I haven't tried myself from scratch yet, only ready made images so far May 28 16:09:51 how usable ist webos on a device like google galaxy nexus? does it work reliably? May 28 16:11:16 It's quite OK in general, just very basic still but works in general May 28 16:11:42 Just need a phone and messaging app and it would be usable as a buggy daily driver May 28 16:11:50 do the browser, email and phoen functions work? May 28 16:11:56 Not that buggy but still needs some tweaking May 28 16:12:12 Browser is OK-ish has 1 big bug currently that's being fixed May 28 16:12:53 HTML5 video playback works, email also (app released by HP needs some TLC though). Phone app is being worked on :) May 28 16:13:03 Any help is welcome on any of this :) May 28 16:13:54 does it run on other devices as the three mentioned on webos-ports.org? May 28 16:15:05 Not currently but porting is fairly straight forward to (theoretically) any device that has a CM 10.1 port (that's what we base our build on currently) May 28 16:15:45 i'm currently using a hp pre 3 which is great. i'm looking for something to use whenever the pre 3 ceases to work. i don't like android. openwebos looks like a good idea to me. May 28 16:17:25 It is but had some issues because it was fine tuned for Palm/HP hardware and drivers (dual framebuffer) that Android doesn't use. That's one of the reasons we're rewriting LunaSysMgr UI in Luna Next so it works faster with devices that have a single frame May 28 16:17:26 buffer like all Android devices. May 28 16:19:26 can you recommend the google galaxy nexus for trying how webos works an an actual device? May 28 16:21:14 Guest24047: can you paste the exact output you get from bitbake? May 28 16:23:32 i'm running ubuntu in a virtual box and haven't yet figured out how to copy&paste to the host system. i'll try to log on here from within the box... May 28 16:24:28 You can do it using browser and pastebin in ubuntu May 28 16:24:38 :) May 28 16:24:59 Guest24047: can just phrase the last lines you see? May 28 16:25:28 Guest24047: and try adding CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_URIS = "" to conf/local.conf May 28 16:27:50 OE @webos ~/webos/webos-ports $ MACHINE=maguro bb webos-ports-dev-image ERROR: OE-core's config sanity checker detected a potential misconfiguration. Either fix the cause of this error or at your own risk disable the checker (see sanity.conf). Following is the list of potential problems / advisories: Failed to fetch test data from the network. Please ensure your network is configured correctly. ERROR: Execution May 28 16:28:50 where do i find CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_URIS ? May 28 16:32:50 Guest24047: just add the line CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_URIS = "" to the end of conf/local.conf May 28 16:34:53 ahh...ok... got your last phrase wrong.... added it to the file now... seems to build fine.... eta 2:30 May 28 16:36:23 which device can you recommend for trying webos on? does it work fine on a galaxy nexus (maguro)? May 28 16:37:40 Guest24047: our variant (which is a competely rework of Open webOS) works fine on galaxy nexus May 28 16:45:48 last output i got was "NOTE: Preparing runqueue". no activity afterwards.... May 28 16:46:49 that will take some time May 28 16:46:57 it will download all the prebuild stuff May 28 16:47:01 Guest24047: you just want to try it? May 28 16:48:18 if yes, just download one of the prebuild images: git@github.com:morphis/android-drivers.git May 28 16:48:28 ah no, http://build.webos-ports.org/webos-ports/images/maguro/ is the right one May 28 16:49:31 i'll try that if the build fails... but thanks to your help i think it will go through fine. May 28 16:50:28 i like the idea of having the source code for my os. May 28 16:51:00 i don't have a galaxy nexus yet. will have to get one on ebay for trial purposes. May 28 16:51:47 i have a samsung s3 mini which runs cm11.0 it ran cm 10.1 too May 28 16:52:14 in theory it should be "fairly" easy to port webos to the s3 mini? May 28 17:05:28 Theoretically yes ;) May 28 17:05:30 Qe May 28 17:05:48 We have a "porting guide" on the wiki that should help a bit May 28 17:06:13 But I'm sure it could use more info, I didn't attempt anything myself yet ;) May 28 17:10:48 only one more "stupid" question to morphis: the build will still take quite a while? in which directory will i find the files to put on the device? May 28 17:12:00 Guest24047: tmp-eglibc/deploy/images/maguro/ May 28 17:12:09 and yes it will take some time May 28 17:15:07 ok. thanks a lot for all the info and your support! i'll get a galaxy nexus next and will try webos on it. will probably be back soon. again: thanks a lot! May 28 17:32:45 Guest24047: no problem May 28 18:40:12 * EricBlade returns successfully **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu May 29 03:00:00 2014
