**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Jul 06 02:59:57 2011 Jul 06 08:58:54 morning all Jul 06 10:06:50 gm Jul 06 16:40:55 I see we have OLDEST_KERNEL = "2.4.0" in conf/bitbake.conf, is this something we should change? Jul 06 16:41:23 seems to be something we pass into eglibc's configure Jul 06 16:57:03 bluelightning: summary, yes Jul 06 16:57:11 bluelightning: might get some speedups :) Jul 06 16:57:31 RP__: you want a patch? Jul 06 16:57:41 bluelightning: go for it Jul 06 16:57:55 ok Jul 06 17:08:00 bluelightning, yeah, we have already removed 2.4 support from kernel.bbclass Jul 06 17:08:35 indeed... just one more piece to clean up, there may be yet more lurking :) Jul 06 17:22:00 dvhart: hey there Jul 06 17:25:26 hey jefferai ! Jul 06 17:25:27 dvhart: with the angstrom distribution that came with the board, not everything was working but I do know that USB was -- or at least, it saw the Ethernet device, and it didn't constantly have those issues with displaying to the monitor Jul 06 17:25:48 btw -- someone should steal Narcissus from the Angstrom people :-) Jul 06 17:25:56 what is Narcissus? Jul 06 17:26:04 the Angstrom Online Image Builder Jul 06 17:26:10 http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/builder/ Jul 06 17:26:13 it's pretty nice Jul 06 17:26:25 might be easier than whoever it was that was working on something from scratch Jul 06 17:26:31 hehe, /me points incandescant and pidge at jefferai ^ Jul 06 17:26:33 of course I haven't actually tried building anything with it yet :-) Jul 06 17:26:42 (narcissus is open source) Jul 06 17:27:50 there is some image builder effort going on within the Yocto Project. Both incandescant and pidge (amongst others) are involved. Both from a desktop UI and a web UI point of view. Jul 06 17:28:21 the Yocto project supports multiple platforms, integrates multiple layers, and has several image types - this complicates the builder UI considerably Jul 06 17:28:31 but we all agree, something like that would be very useful Jul 06 17:28:40 jefferai, remind me which rev you're building for? Jul 06 17:29:18 rev C Jul 06 17:29:29 right Jul 06 17:29:51 I don't know where sgw is with the x-load and u-boot patches robert suggested Jul 06 17:30:01 I'm just now back from jul4 vacation Jul 06 17:30:19 but those changes may have an impact on the revC Jul 06 17:30:25 dvhart: xload is in and I have a uboot patch Jul 06 17:30:59 sgw, cool - jefferai once uboot fix is in, I'd be interested to see if the behavior persists Jul 06 17:31:02 but I just found a QA Warning for LDFLAGS with gnuhash stuff Jul 06 17:31:18 dvhart: o I am re-working that Jul 06 17:33:32 sgw/dvhart: ok, I'll wait on those Jul 06 17:33:39 can one of you ping me when I should try updating? Jul 06 17:34:32 dvhart: would u-boot-mkimage ever be used on the target? Is it just a native tool? Jul 06 17:35:05 jefferai, will do Jul 06 17:35:39 thanks! Jul 06 17:36:09 sgw, well, it is more likely to be used on the host, but you *could* build on the target for the target I suppose Jul 06 17:36:21 sgw, do we package gcc to be run on the target? Jul 06 17:36:35 yes for sdk Jul 06 17:36:51 so I guess it reasonable to package this for the target also, just verifing Jul 06 17:36:58 I _think_ so Jul 06 17:37:04 I haven't used it explicitly Jul 06 17:58:13 dvhart, jefferai: uboot patch sent, RP will get it when he does (or when I get a consolidated pull together later today). Jul 06 17:58:28 ack Jul 06 17:59:41 the problem with naricissus is that afaik it's a fairly static script that gets called with certain paraemters set from a web form Jul 06 18:00:41 incandescant, looks like it...its pretty "canned" Jul 06 18:01:10 * incandescant nods Jul 06 18:01:30 it's a nice tool, it's just not flexible enough for our desires Jul 06 18:02:16 one thing, for example, is the lack of version control as to which packages you want pinned at which version Jul 06 18:02:51 so you always, it seems, get the latest out of the repo. Jul 06 18:03:32 dvhart: sgw: sorry, by "sent" do you mean sent to a mailing list, or pushed up to the repo, or...? Jul 06 18:03:47 jefferai, on the mailing list awaiting merge Jul 06 18:03:53 jefferai, I'll poke you when it hits master Jul 06 18:03:59 ah, ok Jul 06 18:04:05 I guess it's not one of the mailing lists I joined Jul 06 18:04:09 or it hasn't come through yet :-) Jul 06 18:13:53 re narcissus, narcissus doesn't actually act as a frontend to bitbake, it mostly just assembles images from pre-built packages Jul 06 18:14:39 bluelightning, oh yeah, that too :-) Jul 06 18:17:17 so, I'm setting up a temporary bsp to test something Jul 06 18:17:25 if I've set PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-yocto" Jul 06 18:17:32 why am I getting linux-dummy? Jul 06 18:18:53 hmm, maybe I'm missing some bbappends Jul 06 18:27:05 yes, missing a lot of kernel config stuff... nvm **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Jul 07 02:59:56 2011
