[01:44]  * pwnguin just realized there's no c in persia's name
[01:44] <pwnguin> now it makes a lot more sense why he's in .jp
[01:45] <persia> Actually, the two are completely unrelated (although it does make transliteration easier)
[09:21] <eggonlea> does any body use ZSYNC to download 9.10? It reports 302 error. Seems ubuntu.com changed the file location and zsync cannot deal with http redirection.
[09:22] <eggonlea> I could use zsync for 9.10 alpha, beta and rc.
[09:22] <eggonlea> but failed on this final one.
[09:27] <eggonlea> [answer my own question] just use redirected cdn.release instead of the release server. :P
[09:30] <ogra> note that the servers are under heavy load during the first 10 days after release usually
[09:31] <eggonlea> /nod
[09:32] <eggonlea> hope all are using bt or zsync instead of downloading .iso/.img directly with multithread sw
[14:48] <kblin> oh well, I'm giving up for now. ARM hardware doesn't seem to be quite ready for prime-time yet
[14:50] <kblin> can't build products on systems that decide to sometimes do the right thing
[15:08] <suihkulokki> kblin: you are aware that how well usb works on beagleboard is not representantive of how all other arm works with usb?
[15:08] <kblin> suihkulokki: yeah, I tried a shevaplug as well
[15:10] <kblin> that was even worse :)
[15:11] <suihkulokki> kblin: hmm? apart for the bootloader not supporting usb, usb has been solid for me on sheeva
[15:11] <kblin> does IPv6 work for you?
[15:12] <kblin> no, the sheeva had other issues
[15:12] <kblin> not the least dying on me after two weeks
[15:12] <kblin> and the globalscale support really sucks, especially if you're outside the US
[15:14] <suihkulokki> haven't had a ipv6 setup for a while
[15:15] <kblin> the default kernel shipped with the sheeva claims to support ipv6, but is missing the kernel module
[15:16] <kblin> which severly screws up applications that try to support ipv6
[15:18] <kblin> I didn't get around to try a custom kernel, as my plug died before I could test
[16:06] <tordne> hi, i'm getting the mobile phone toshiba TG01, with a snapdragon processor
[16:08] <tordne> I want to install ubuntu on the phone, but i can't seem to find what to install on it.
[16:09] <tordne> the snapdragon is based on ARM that is why I ended up here
[16:09] <tordne> can someone tell me if I can install ubuntu-arm on the phone
[16:09] <tordne> thanks
[16:10] <kblin> unfortunately there's much more variety between ARMs than between x86-based chips
[16:11] <kblin> hard to give definite answers there
[16:13] <ojn> tordne: after a lot of work messing around with all sorts of stuff, you would in the end have a phone that you can't make calls with. Is that really what you want?
[16:14] <tordne> @ojn: yes
[16:14] <tordne> @no :-D
[16:15] <kblin> see, that's why open source is great
[16:15] <kblin> it's all about choice.. even if the choice is shooting yourself in the foot
[16:15] <tordne> I don
[16:15] <ojn> Linux is free only if your time has no value... :)
[16:16] <tordne> @ojn: no I wouldn't mind to mess up the phone
[16:17] <tordne> @ojn: but i like linux, and can program a bit... maybe this is a start for me to realize something
[16:40] <tordne> @ojn: I think I found something better "Mer linux"
[16:41] <BeardedChimp> Once I've created a tarball from the rootfsfromscratch, how do I install that to an sd card such that it is bootable? I tried just creating a big ext2 filesystem and extracting inside it but the arm board seemingly didn't boot from it
[16:42] <BeardedChimp> (I had already figured that it wouldnt work but gave it a shot anyway)
[16:43] <ojn> BeardedChimp: It depends on your board. Some firmware expects to read the kernel (or even the firmware itself) from a FAT partition at the beginning of the media. It's more of a board than a distro question
[16:45] <BeardedChimp> I have an image of their edge install floating about, I'm guessing I could work it out by having a peak inside?
[16:45] <ojn> probably, yes
[16:50] <BeardedChimp> http://pastebin.com/m2e5b4365 I think this is the relevant bit from the docs, bit beyond me at the minute
[16:53] <armin76> BeardedChimp: hope you didn't used karmic as rootfs
[16:54] <BeardedChimp> No :)
[16:54] <BeardedChimp> I figured that would be suicide
[16:55] <BeardedChimp> The board comes with sarge installed on it, but with support dropped for it, it aint great
[16:55] <ojn> dist-upgrade to etch?
[16:56] <BeardedChimp> tbh im looking for >.27 kernel
[16:56] <BeardedChimp> Which is why I went for ubuntu
