[14:03] <jax55> has anyone experimented with the at91sam9g20ek or any of the at91sam series?
[15:32] <ogra_cmpc> jax55, current ubuntu only supports ARMv7
[15:33] <ogra_cmpc> for the atmel you are better off wiht debian i guess
[15:33] <jax55> ogra_cmpc ... thx, ah...i read that it supports v5 too
[15:33] <ogra_cmpc> jaunty (9.04) supported v5
[15:33] <jax55> right
[15:33] <ogra_cmpc> karmic (9.10) supported v6
[15:33] <ogra_cmpc> and since lucid only v7 is supported
[15:34] <jax55> right, thats what i read...so you think i should still go wit jaunty or go debian?
[15:34] <ogra_cmpc> well, if you go with jaunty you are stuck at it, you wont be able to upgrade to any newer ubuntu version
[15:35] <ogra_cmpc> if that doesnt bother you its fine, else i'd recommend debian
[15:36] <jax55> yeah, that bothers me less....this whole ventrue started by the fact that the angstrom distro and kernel that comes with this board does not have the snd modules loaded properly so alsa breaks....so i decided to try ubuntu (which i preffer anyhow) .....also, do you have a good guide you could recomend? i currently have the angstrom distro on there,
[15:37] <ogra_cmpc> well, you will have to roll your own kernel, there is none for that atmel board in ubuntu
[15:37] <ogra_cmpc> beyond that, see the rootfs from scratch page from the channel topic
[15:37] <jax55> gotcha...yeah, i had a feeling i am in uncharted terratory with this board
[15:38] <jax55> i apreciate the pointers though, thank you very much
[19:51] <Cosmo`> well rcn-ee
[19:51] <Cosmo`> i finally succeeded
[19:51] <Cosmo`> but it involved soldering and alot of USB cable splicing ... :)
[20:03] <rcn-ee> cool Cosmo` good to hear...
[20:04] <Cosmo`> thanks for your help :)
