| kedars | is the samba package for ubuntu-arm built with "--disable-largefile", how can I find out? | 07:57 |
|---|---|---|
| kedars | if that option is not set, there is a problem seen while copying large files where it dumps the error "Network name no longer exists" | 07:58 |
| kblin | you could check the rules dir in the package | 08:17 |
| kblin | source package, that is | 08:18 |
| kblin | kedars: or you can run smdb -b :) | 08:35 |
| kedars | kblin: thanks :) I'll look at it | 08:47 |
| kblin | ogra: just to pick up where I left off yesterday, even if I supply my bb with power from my PC's USB port instead of from the powered hub things seem to blow up | 12:19 |
| kblin | ogra: how many amps does your psu put out? | 12:19 |
| ogra | phew, no idea | 12:19 |
| ogra | 0.5 or 1 i guess i dont have it handy | 12:20 |
| amitk | kblin: what board is this? | 12:20 |
| ogra | beagle | 12:21 |
| kblin | yeah, a B6 beagle | 12:21 |
| kblin | I'm seeing the same issues on a C3 beagle as well | 12:23 |
| amitk | since the usb port can't output more than 500mA, that is probably what the PSU outputs | 12:24 |
| kblin | yeah, I guess so | 12:38 |
| kblin | anyway, it seems like using an external power source for the board didn't help with the flaky disk drive issue | 12:39 |
| kblin | and I can't test if the angstrom 2.6.28 kernel fixes the issue because angstrom refuses to boot at all | 12:40 |
| kblin | the joys of being at the bleeding edge, I guess | 12:40 |
| kblin | I hope the sheeva will cause less fuss | 12:40 |
| lool | ogra: Do you know how to build your own dove kernel from git? | 12:57 |
| ogra | lool, no, i used the huge ugly patchset for mine with an upstream tarball | 12:58 |
| lool | I don't understand | 12:58 |
| ogra | lool, but afaik bjf should have somethng basically ready in his tree | 12:58 |
| ogra | lool, we had the patchset against 2.6.30 | 12:59 |
| lool | ok so you do know how to build the dove kernel from sources? | 12:59 |
| ogra | i downloaded a tarball from kernel.org, applied the patchset and applied the defconfig for Y0 | 12:59 |
| ogra | and then used amits reciepe to roll a zImage with codesourcery | 12:59 |
| === cbrake_away is now known as cbrake | ||
| lool | ogra: So you do know how to build a kernel from source? | 13:00 |
| ogra | make uImage you mean ? | 13:00 |
| lool | Yes | 13:00 |
| lool | Sometimes it feels I'm speaking chinese :) | 13:01 |
| ogra | yes, took me a while to adjust all vars for codesourcery iirc | 13:01 |
| lool | ogra: Would you be able to build an uImage from latest tip of ubuntu-karmic.git's arm branch? | 13:01 |
| ogra | well, i dont get what you are targeting, indeed i know how to type make | 13:01 |
| ogra | i can try that, do you have the runes for the right git branch for me ? | 13:03 |
| ogra | is it just "arm" ? | 13:03 |
| lool | ogra: Actually wrong branch hold on | 13:04 |
| ogra | hrm, why do we call one "arm" and the other has a vendor and SoC name ? | 13:04 |
| lool | I see the commit isn't there | 13:04 |
| lool | ogra: Ah you wonder as well | 13:04 |
| ogra | i see a lot of dove stuff in http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-karmic.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/arm | 13:04 |
| lool | It's a well garded secreat | 13:04 |
| lool | warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout. | 13:04 |
| * lool sighs | 13:04 | |
| ogra | oh man | 13:04 |
| ogra | Changed package name to linux-arm ??? | 13:05 |
| * ogra shakes head ... | 13:05 | |
| lool | ogra: So you want another tree actually | 13:05 |
| lool | bjf didn't merge it yet | 13:06 |
| ogra | yeah, looks like | 13:06 |
| lool | You want ubuntu:marvell/dove-kernel/.git | 13:06 |
| lool | marvell-dove-2.6.31-rc4 branch | 13:06 |
| lool | (Don't ask) | 13:06 |
| lool | ogra: Would you be able to build an uImage from there and see whether that fixes the unstability issues | 13:06 |
| lool | ogra: Actually I'm starting to wonder whether NCommander should do it since he does Marvell stuff | 13:07 |
| ogra | he should, but i dont know if he will be around | 13:07 |
| lool | why not? | 13:07 |
| ogra | i need to set up my dove again anyway and while waiting for rtg to finish the imx51 meta i can well do something different | 13:07 |
| ogra | he said something about driving to/from his parents the beginning of the week | 13:08 |
| lool | Hmm ok | 13:08 |
| lool | But we're like Tuesday | 13:08 |
| ogra | not sure that applied only to monday or to more days | 13:08 |
| ogra | i'm never sure when he says something like that | 13:08 |
| amitk | ogra: the 'arm' branch will get renamed to mrv-dove | 13:08 |
| ogra | amitk, ah | 13:08 |
| amitk | bjf is working on cleaning it up, rebasing, fixing up the configs, etc. | 13:10 |
| * ogra sighs about git | 13:15 | |
| ogra | git is like latin ... i know why i had french at school ... | 13:18 |
| kblin | nah | 13:23 |
| kblin | you can actually learn git in under three years | 13:23 |
| ogra | heh | 13:23 |
| kblin | and once you learned it, it's useful | 13:23 |
| ogra | now thats something i doubt | 13:23 |
| lool | ogra: You're stuck? | 13:24 |
| kblin | at least for me it is. most projects I work on use it | 13:24 |
| ogra | no, but it seems to take the rest of the day to check out | 13:24 |
| ogra | Receiving objects: 17% | 13:24 |
| lool | ogra: You don't have any other linux tree around? | 13:24 |
| ogra | not a git one | 13:25 |
| lool | I use git clone --reference ~/git/linux/torvalds/linux-2.6 ubuntu:marvell/dove-kernel/.git | 13:25 |
| ogra | i usually use trabals, that have striped git afaik | 13:25 |
| ogra | *stripped | 13:25 |
| ogra | sigh, what am i typing today | 13:25 |
| lool | ogra: I recommend you keep at least one git tree around | 13:25 |
| ogra | i usually refuse to use git, but if you think it helps :) | 13:26 |
| lool | ogra: You can download a tarball from the tip of that branch from kernel.u.c if you like | 13:26 |
| ogra | well, its at 30% now ... i'll just leave it running and wont wipe it | 13:27 |
| ogra | amitk, do you have any idea if the packaging of that branch is actually properly adjusted for uboot already (running make uImage instead of zImage) ? | 13:29 |
| ogra | if not we should do that | 13:30 |
| amitk | ogra: uImage is actually supported in upstream kernels IIRC | 13:30 |
| amitk | it just requires uboot-tools or some such thing to be installed | 13:30 |
| ogra | yes, i know i build them like that if i dont use debuild | 13:30 |
| ogra | i was talking about the package | 13:30 |
| amitk | ogra: oh, that is yet to be fixed. bjf knows about it though. | 13:30 |
| ogra | it should depend on uboot-mkimage and run make uImage by default | 13:30 |
| ogra | ah, k | 13:30 |
| ogra | i just wanted to know what it spits out in the end | 13:31 |
| ogra | lool, do you have an idea why NCommander needed to run initramfs through uboot-mkimage to make it work ? i have never seen that | 13:32 |
| lool | ogra: Just run make uImage instead of make zImage | 13:33 |
| ogra | lool, well, i was attempting to run debuild :) | 13:33 |
| ogra | (once its downloaded) | 13:33 |
| lool | ogra: NCommander says we want to pack the initramfs with the kernel in a single uboot image; I don't think we want that | 13:33 |
| ogra | right | 13:33 |
| lool | ogra: You can't debuild from the marvell tree I think | 13:34 |
| ogra | to me he was talking about uInitrd or something | 13:34 |
| ogra | the commit logs looked like it, we'll see, i'll take a look at the debian dir before firing off the build | 13:34 |
| ogra | ogra@osiris:/var/build/kernel/git/ubuntu-karmic$ grep Package debian/control.d/flavour-control.stub | 13:46 |
| ogra | Package: linux-mrv-dove-PKGVER-ABINUM-FLAVOUR | 13:46 |
| ogra | well looks like it at least knows about a binary package | 13:46 |
| ogra | hrm, there doesnt seem to be any config in the packagin | 13:58 |
| ogra | g | 13:58 |
| ogra | lool, any special config you like me to use ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/251347/ | 14:00 |
| ogra | i'll just go with dove_defconfig if you dont suggest anything different | 14:00 |
| lool | ogra: Not for this testing | 14:01 |
| lool | The only changes are code changes | 14:01 |
| ogra | ok | 14:01 |
| ogra | ah, NCommander is around | 14:03 |
| ogra | gah, make oldconfig asks a million of questions | 14:04 |
| * ogra just hits enter on all of them for now | 14:05 | |
| ogra | assuming the defaults are ok | 14:05 |
| mcasadevall | ogra, we have dove kernels :-)? | 14:09 |
| ogra | mcasadevall, a tree | 14:09 |
| ogra | mcasadevall, http://people.canonical.com/~ogra/arm/dove/ if you want to test a binary | 14:16 |
| mcasadevall | ogra, from our kernel team? | 14:17 |
| mcasadevall | woo! | 14:17 |
| ogra | just built from our tree, yes | 14:17 |
| ogra | no idea how well it works, there were some config questions i just hit enter on without caring much | 14:18 |
| ogra | mcasadevall, would be nice if you could give it a shot, i have to wire up my HW first | 14:20 |
| mcasadevall | ogra, you built targetting the Y0, right? | 14:21 |
| ogra | i used defconfig_dove, should work | 14:21 |
| mcasadevall | ogra, that doesn't tell me if your getting the Y0 or Z0 board ;-) | 14:35 |
| ogra | there is no specific Y0 config so it should be fine | 14:36 |
| ogra | just try it please | 14:36 |
| mcasadevall | ogra, I am, just give me a bit to get my board setup again | 14:37 |
| * mcasadevall is still digging for his USB-serial adapter | 14:37 | |
| ogra | heh, well, then i can do it myself | 14:37 |
| * ogra was hoping you had yours set up already | 14:37 | |
| mcasadevall | ogra, mine is setup, but I took its ethernet and serial-USB adapter before I left to Berlin | 14:37 |
| mcasadevall | I got in about 03:00 his morning, so I went to bed after sending the IRC mobile meeting email | 14:38 |
| lool | ogra: Instead of hitting enter use silentoldconfig | 14:45 |
| lool | ogra: Did you pass ARCH=arm? | 14:45 |
| ogra | lool, ok, next build | 14:45 |
| ogra | indeed i did | 14:45 |
| ogra | else the crosscompiler would freak out ;) | 14:45 |
