lfitzif i put the new kernel uImage-2.6.34 in the boot directory and extract the kernel modules to the root fs, will that successfully update the kernel?03:02
lfitz..and try to reboot?03:03
lfitzor is there docs on how to upgrade the kernel on a sheevaplug?03:04
sebjanlag: Hi! I just look at the syslink patch applied by Tim, and I don't see the modalias, nor the module_init(). Did you test this patch? I do not expect it to be functional...08:30
lagWhat do you mean you don't see them?08:31
lagSebjan?08:34
sebjanlag: in the patch applied on the top of the tree, there is not the MODULE_ALIAS code for example08:34
* lag looks08:35
cooloneysebjan: that's true, please follow the email thread started from lag08:35
cooloneylag: in you v1 patch, there is MODULE_ALIAS code08:36
cooloneylag: but in the v2 patch which is in Maverick now, there is no such code08:37
cooloneylag: i guess sebjan is asking this08:37
sebjancorrect :)08:37
cooloneylag: btw, thanks a lot for email me the blob file08:37
lagcooloney, sebjan: You're correct, I'll add it as a separate patch right now08:37
cooloneylag: great, man08:38
sebjanlag: we also need the module_init(), right?08:38
lagWhy do you need that?08:38
sebjanlag: for the omap4_syslink_init function to be called on startup? Or the __init does it?08:39
=== hrw|gone is now known as hrw
hrwmorning08:40
lagsebjan: The device_initcall(omap4_syslink_init); does it08:41
lagsebjan: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=lag/ubuntu-maverick.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/ti-omap4-syslink08:47
lagSorry about that. I did a git reset --mixed <sha1>08:48
lagAdded omap4-common.c and must have missed off ipc_drv.c08:48
lagIt was still in my tree though, hence when I tested it, it worked08:49
sebjanlag: no problems. By the way, we shall stick with syslink drivers static right now, as we are seeing issues when using them as modules. We are investigating that, and will send an update when this will be fixed (then we can activate syslink drivers as modules)09:02
lagNo problem - keep me posted09:03
sebjanlag: yes, sure!09:05
lagsebjan: Can you have a look at the patch on the mailing list please09:27
lagsebjan: If it's okay can you ack it as well?09:27
sebjanlag: done09:30

lagTI told me to use it11:12
lagWell that works11:12

lagI can11:13
* ogra will try omapdss.hdmimode=0 omapdss.hdmicode=4 on his monitor11:13

ograthe timeframe was also way to short11:45
ograresizing 16G will likely take about 15min11:45
hrwyou guys are insane with that resizing11:46
ograso please get me the log so i can see what went wrong11:46
ograhrw, why ?11:46
ograhrw, compared to a 2-3h install its quite reasonable11:46
hrwogra: cant I fetch tarball which will be unpacked to card?11:47
ograplus you need an additional target device11:47
ograhrw, that will be as messy as a rootstock image11:47
ograyou will never get a proper ubuntu install that way11:47
ograit will be something "ubuntu alike"11:48
hrwso now I get 512MB image to dd on card which will start with initrd which will resize that 512MB to whole card?11:48
ograyou get a 1.4G image and yes, initrd is essential for a proper ubuntu image11:49

lagIt looks great11:49
ograoh11:49
ograhmm11:49
hrwwhy I can install x86(-64) with 1CD but arm needs >2CD?11:49
ograhrw, because x86 uses a squashfs and a full installer11:50
ograour image is bz2 and needs to be uncompressed before dd11:50
ograand is fully preinstalled11:50
laghrw: Our boards don't have CD drives :)11:50
ograwell, they have SD slots11:50
lagYes, hence why we use entire images11:51
ograwhich we used before in a similar way to CD drives11:51
ograso you had to install a live image to USB from SD card11:51
lagOur full install takes 5 mins. How long does X86 take?11:51
ograa) the installation can take 2-3h depending on the card11:51
ograb) you need to use the SD as a "boot floppy" on boards like panda11:52
ograso you need to trash the installation media at the end of the install11:52
ogravery very ugly11:52
lagYup11:52
ograx86 takes between 20 and 40min11:52
ograwith a speedy CD drive11:52
ograit copies the 2G from the squashfs to the HDD11:53
ograand then removes bits11:53
ograin our images the resizing takes the longest time, after that its relatively speedy since only oem-config runs11:54
ograsadly resizing takes at least 10min11:54
ogralag, anything intresting in the jasper.log file ?11:55
lagIt was trashed11:55
ogragah11:55
lagI trashed it11:55
lagI am re-running11:55
ograwhat you can do is to add break=bottom on the cmdline, that will give you a busybox shell11:56
ograjasper.log lives in /dev/.initramfs/jasper.log there11:56
ograyou can ctrl-d out of that shell and booting moves on11:57
ogra(works also with break=top or premount, depending where you want to inspect the initramfs)11:57

lagOr I get nothing12:48
lagYes, it does 1920x108012:48

robclarkalthough to be honest, I'm not a display driver guy..12:50
robclarkif you could get a log of the boot msgs, we send that to me (rob@ti.com) and I'll loop in display driver team12:51

cwillu_at_workk, I'll poke you in a couple hours if I'm not driving out to the middle of nowhere13:20
lagI'm going to have a poke around in the driver in the meantime13:21
mythripklag, I heard from Rob that you had some more issues in HDMI..13:46
laglag == lee13:49
lag:)13:49
lagWe've been chatting13:49
mythripkdid you try out the timing values i suggested over mail ?13:50
lagYes13:50
lagThey worked when I use sysfs13:50
mythripkie the custom_edid_timing right?13:50
lagThey don't when I use them on the kernel cmdline13:50
lagCorrect13:50
lagI don't see why my monitor should be different to any other13:51
mythripkok ie when you use omapdss.hdmicode= and omapdss.hdmimode=13:51
lagBeagleboard works out of the box13:51
lagYes, they don't work13:51
mythripkit would not be , can you please share the log ?13:51
lagThe most I can get from them is a fuzzy screen and my monitor saying "out of range"13:52
lagWhen I use which settings?13:52
mythripkany , where you are getting fuzzy screen and monitor giving "out of range "13:52
mythripkalso what is the timing value that you set with beagle ?13:53
lagI have no idea13:53
lagI'll try to find out for you13:53
lagAlso, my monitor doesn't turn itself on13:54
mythripkno that's fine , log would help , but the same command line i sent for 640 and 480 ie vga setting worked ?13:54
lagI have to turn it off, then on again to get my fuzzy screen13:54
mythripkwith the vga setting too ?13:54
lagHere is fuzzy screen settings: http://paste.ubuntu.com/460620/13:55
ogramythripk, the problem is that we need something that works generally on the ubuntu images13:55
lagNothing has 'worked' - some have been better than others13:55
ograthere is no way to adjust boot options for every monitor13:56
ograpreferably by autodetection and without any boot parameters, though if thats not possible, a bootarg with the smallest common denominator that makes it work on all monitors would also work13:57
mythripkcurrently the default setting is for 1080p setting but you could pass the boot args , the setting that will definitely work on All Tv's would be VGA resolution according to HDMI spec , I could make it as default13:58
mythripkLag didnt VGA resolution work for you ? From your mail i was under the impression that it did.13:59
ograVGA is to small for our desktop13:59
lagWhich number was that?14:00
mythripkomapdss.hdmicode=4 and omapdss.hdmimode=014:00
ograand causes weird effects on some monitors ... i.e. mine doesnt expand to the full monitor size, i get a square in the top left corner of the screen14:00
lagThat's the fuzzy screen setting that I use14:00
mythripkogra , ya VGA is too small but that is the only setting that by default is supported by all TV's and then14:01

ogramythripk, 1024x768 would work for us ...14:02
mythripkok then can you set omapdss.hdmicode=16 and omapdss.hdmimode=0 ?14:03
ograthat gets me the above described effect14:03
ogradoesnt expand to the full screen size14:03
ogranot sure what it does for lag's monitor14:04
ograor for GrueMaster's who also has display issues14:04
=== fta_ is now known as fta
lagChecking14:05
mythripkhttp://omappedia.org/wiki/Bootargs_for_enabling_display this has explanation as to what you code you could use for all the DVI settings ,  How to read and set EDID timings for HDMI  section , you could modify the omapdss.hdmimode and code correspondingly for bootargs14:05
* lag 's monitor stuck its fingers up at him and went to sleep14:05
mythripkwith 16 and 0 ?14:06
ogramythripk, is there any chance that works automatically at some point ?14:07
ograthe EDID data should have all possible modes the monitor can handle or not ?14:07
ograso if you can read it you shoudl be able to switch to a valid mode14:07
mythripkLag From the pastebin theEDID is read and being set correctly : EDID Content 256                                                                                                                                                   EDID TIMING DATA FOUND                                                                                                                                                   Hdmi_code = 4 mode = 114:07
mythripkogra, yes the EDID has all the values supported by the monitor , but from the log tha lag sent me earlier its NULL , i was actually surprised14:08
lagI think "Hdmi_code = 4 mode = 1" is coming from my boot args14:08
lagAlthough mode should be 0?14:08
ogramythripk, aha :)14:09
mythripkyes are you setting omapdss.hdmimode=0? in the bootargs?14:09
lagI am14:09
* ogra sees "How to enable HDMI in hot-plug detect mode" ... 14:10
ograi wonder if we could enable that by default in our kernel14:10
ograare there any drawbacks when defaulting that value to 114:11
ogra?14:11
lagI just tried setting omapdss.hdmimode=0 and leaving the code - nothing14:11
mythripkogra , I sent a patch to lag to default put it in hot plug detect mode as he was sync lost digit earlier , through sysfs you could use  echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display2/hpd_enabled again from http://omappedia.org/wiki/Bootargs_for_enabling_display14:12
mythripklag , could you please try with another monitor ? or is it the same behavior with all ?14:13
ogramythripk, right, i saw that14:13
lagThe only other HDMI device I have is my TV downstairs 42"14:13
ogramythripk, but it seems like something really userfriendly to enable by default if it doesnt disturb other functionallity14:13
mythripkogra, yes we could actually read the first block of EDID and set the timings which we currently are not doing today , for some samsung TV's not working14:21
ograhmm14:22
ograi have no issues with my samsung monitor14:22
ograand apparently i'm the only panda user in the ubuntu team who doesnt have display issues ... which is funny :)14:22
mythripkwe have identified that we were setting AVI checksum wrong that resulted in some samsung TV's not working There is a patch available for that14:22
mythripkgood to hear :)14:22
ograso we should include your patch :)14:23
mythripkthat would solve the issues seen in some samsung TV's that enforce strict AVI checksum14:24
ogragreat, lag can we add that ?14:24
