log123 | hello | 01:36 |
---|---|---|
log123 | i installed ubuntu chroot on my palm pre | 01:36 |
log123 | but i cannot get any new software | 01:37 |
log123 | can anyone point me to the sources required? | 01:37 |
log123 | to acquire new software? | 01:38 |
log123 | like for the /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:41 |
log123 | anyone? | 01:43 |
log123 | hello? | 01:45 |
rcn-ee | log123: deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports karmic main universe | 01:47 |
log123 | ah | 01:47 |
log123 | thank you | 01:47 |
log123 | wait | 01:47 |
log123 | what if i compiled it as a jaunty? | 01:47 |
log123 | just replace karmic with jaunty? | 01:48 |
rcn-ee | yeah.. that'll work fine.. (quickly cat'd my board) | 01:48 |
log123 | i love ubuntu | 01:48 |
log123 | and now i'll get that power on my palm pre | 01:48 |
log123 | thank you ubuntu gods ! | 01:48 |
log123 | and torvalds | 01:49 |
log123 | thanks rcn-ee | 01:59 |
rcn-ee | no prob | 01:59 |
log123 | :O | 02:03 |
log123 | its updating... | 02:04 |
log123 | reading package lists | 02:04 |
log123 | i wonder... | 02:05 |
log123 | what will happen if i install ubuntu-desktop? | 02:06 |
log123 | i'll post my results | 02:06 |
log123 | and | 02:06 |
log123 | i wonder if any graphics drivers will work | 02:06 |
rcn-ee | how much ram does that pre have? | 02:08 |
log123 | 256 MB | 02:09 |
log123 | so it should technically work | 02:09 |
log123 | right? | 02:09 |
log123 | and | 02:09 |
rcn-ee | it'll be iffy... ubuntu-desktop is pretty slow on a 256Mb beagleboard (500Mhz) go with xfce4 or lxde... | 02:09 |
log123 | it has a 500 Mhz processor | 02:09 |
log123 | :-/ | 02:09 |
log123 | oh | 02:09 |
log123 | ok | 02:10 |
log123 | i'm installing xubuntu-desktop | 02:10 |
log123 | the processor is capable of 600 MHz | 02:10 |
log123 | possibly more | 02:10 |
rcn-ee | usually i do "xfce4 gdm" then install the other xubuntu branded stuff as you need it.. | 02:11 |
log123 | but its underclocked to 500 | 02:11 |
log123 | oh | 02:11 |
rcn-ee | 500mhz is fine, it's just the lack of ram or fast swap... | 02:11 |
log123 | well | 02:13 |
log123 | 256 is more than other systems i've worked with | 02:13 |
log123 | i had one with 128 | 02:13 |
log123 | that could BARELY run lxde | 02:13 |
log123 | an old poweredge | 02:13 |
log123 | so | 02:14 |
log123 | but | 02:14 |
log123 | that was when i was just starting | 02:14 |
log123 | i oust-ed lxde | 02:14 |
log123 | and it only runs terminal | 02:14 |
log123 | hey | 02:14 |
log123 | EVERYONE | 02:14 |
log123 | GET A PALM PRE | 02:15 |
log123 | ITS BETTER THAN THE G1 AND IPHONE 3GS COMBINED!!! | 02:15 |
log123 | AAAANYWAYS | 02:15 |
log123 | its installing now | 02:15 |
log123 | so.. | 02:16 |
log123 | i wonder if it'll run X11 | 02:16 |
log123 | i dont see why not | 02:16 |
log123 | but | 02:16 |
log123 | you never know | 02:16 |
log123 | considering its already running Luna | 02:16 |
ali1234 | dude, n900 is better than palm pre :P | 02:16 |
log123 | wtf? | 02:16 |
ali1234 | it runs all that stuff by default ^ | 02:16 |
log123 | lol | 02:17 |
log123 | but its the same speed | 02:17 |
log123 | xD | 02:17 |
ali1234 | it has the same processor | 02:17 |
log123 | and | 02:17 |
log123 | the same gpy | 02:17 |
log123 | *gpu* | 02:18 |
log123 | and same amount of ram | 02:18 |
ali1234 | well yeah, they're in the same chip | 02:18 |
log123 | xD | 02:18 |
log123 | bit | 02:18 |
log123 | *but | 02:18 |
ali1234 | it has a better camera though, and 32gb instead of 8gb storage | 02:18 |
log123 | its a 2 MP difference >.> | 02:19 |
log123 | and the pre is smaller | 02:19 |
ali1234 | and it has a silly blackberry style keyboard | 02:19 |
log123 | so? | 02:19 |
log123 | it fits in your back pocket | 02:20 |
log123 | does that n900 fit? | 02:20 |
log123 | and | 02:20 |
log123 | the major beef i have with that | 02:20 |
ali1234 | er, yeah it does, actually | 02:21 |
log123 | is that it A. has a generic name | 02:21 |
log123 | B. is made by Nokie | 02:21 |
log123 | *nokia* | 02:21 |
log123 | i'm not really fond of most of their phones >.> | 02:21 |
log123 | and B. | 02:22 |
log123 | *c.* | 02:22 |
log123 | the pre is smexy | 02:22 |
log123 | i mean | 02:23 |
log123 | do you remember ANY nokia phone that really made an impact? | 02:23 |
log123 | xD | 02:23 |
ali1234 | um didn't nokia *invent* mobile phones? | 02:23 |
log123 | duh | 02:23 |
log123 | thats why this argument is retarded | 02:23 |
log123 | but i think we can BOTH agree | 02:24 |
log123 | that the iphone sucks | 02:24 |
ali1234 | i'll drink to that | 02:24 |
log123 | i mean | 02:24 |
log123 | theres nothing thats worth doing | 02:24 |
log123 | theres near-Zero access to internal filesystem | 02:24 |
log123 | and it... wont run a chroot of my favorite distro | 02:25 |
log123 | ;) | 02:25 |
log123 | what abut that N97 | 02:26 |
log123 | how about we focus our energy on making apple make the iphone more open | 02:27 |
log123 | xD | 02:27 |
log123 | yeah, right like thats ever gonna happen | 02:27 |
log123 | so | 02:28 |
log123 | do you think i should kill "Luna" | 02:28 |
log123 | the palm windowing system | 02:28 |
log123 | and then startx? | 02:29 |
log123 | and i wonder if the touchscreen will work | 02:29 |
log123 | the netbook remix gui would probably do this phone more justice | 02:29 |
ali1234 | on 320x480 you'll struggle to use anything really | 02:30 |
log123 | well | 02:30 |
log123 | the palm GUI works nicely | 02:30 |
Martyn | Back | 03:37 |
Martyn | log123 : I just finished packaging an image for beagleboard (with Zippy though) | 03:38 |
Martyn | It has a patched kernel to deal with the zippy board's unique pinmuxed peripherals (SD card, 10 megabit SPI connected ethernet) | 03:38 |
