lfuhi, dunno I'm in the right place for my questions here. so sorry for any misplaced question. I'm trying to get a customized atom board with graphic up and running, tried IEGD first, which is broken like hell. I then found the psb project, which is apparently inactive at moblin.org. I obtained some sourcpackages for the xorg and kernel driver in http://netbook-remix.archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy-dell-mini/main/source/, kicked i15:43
lfuI supposed strongly that the segfault is somewhere in Xpsb.so, which is unfortunately binary only.15:44
lfuso I'm wondering how the ubuntu people got this running. Any chance to get source code for this?15:45
persialfu, I don't believe that the psb drivers are open source.15:46
lfuthere're only small portion closed source15:47
lfuthe firmware I actually don't care since the xorg startsup also without the kernel driver15:47
lfuall I'm wondering about ist the Xpsb.so15:47
lfuthe Ubuntu people *get* to have got it run... somehow15:47
persiaWell, I can say it wasn't ever part of Ubuntu proper.  There's been some out-of-archive solutions, including the archive you reference above, and the ubuntu-mobile PPA (for hardy)15:48
persiaI've been following some of the work that was done to try to make it work with intrepid, and I know that a whole heap of packages are affected.15:50
persiaBut I don't know anything about Xpsb.so specifically.15:51
ograbeyond the fact that you need to bend backwards until your right ear touches your left ankle to make it build15:52
lfuI actually got the psb_drv compile with my toolchain ;-) You guys has already supplied some patches, I indeed had to kick it further, but it went actually through15:55
lfuIf I don't have the xpsb.so, the psb_drv start till the point: /usr/lib/xorg/modules//psb_drv.so: undefined symbol: psbDRIScreenInit, which seemed godd so far. After I copied the file. X segfaults with this X[974]: segfault at 2949492c eip b7e8cd28 esp 081e6038 error 4. Since I have a debug system with symbol tables. It ought to be somewhere in Xpsb.so, which is apparaentlich stripped till bone15:57
lfuSo I'm wondering where has the Ubuntu people get the finger on this binary. It might probably be some version conflicts with my xorg. (libX11-1.1.4, xorg-server-1.4) (my system is built from scratch with ptxdist). If I can get more information about this part, it'd be enough help16:01
persialfu, Again, it's never been part of Ubuntu proper.  I strongly suspect that the binary you found from http://netbook-remix.archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy-dell-mini/main/source/ was prepared under contract with Intel (as I don't know of any other means to collect it).16:06
lfupersia: hmm, sounds unappealing16:10
persiaYeah, that's part of why it's not in the repos.  Personally, I'd like to have it available, as I have a couple poulsbo devices, but for now I just run with VESA.16:11
lfupersia: VESA ist unfortunately not enought, $CUSOMTER likes to see things rotating and blinking, ;-)16:12
persiaYeah.  For that, you probably need to coordinate with the hardware vendor, unfortunately.16:12
lfuthe powerVR core in GMA500 is crappy like hell. I've already had a lot of fun with this in a powerpc architecture. Now it's biting me hard on this GMA500 issue16:13
lfuIntel has defintively done a bad deal with it16:13
lfuone more question. can I obtain the UNR hardy image somewhere in canonicals archive?16:14
lfuI can only find the jaunty based current one16:15
ograhttp://oem-images.canonical.com/unr/16:17
lfuthe 1.0.1 is hardy based?16:17
