eworkmattman, ok X works it just doesnt seem to like using a DVI to VGA adapter also since its using a framebuffer you can't change the resolution00:22
eworkmattman, added some minor changes about the framebuffer device node and using DVI directly which fixes my X11 problems00:42
eworkmattman, should be sufficient now for someone to get an ubuntu desktop running on that board00:43
mattmanework: so what are the parameters you're passing into the frame buffer?00:44
eworknothing just created the device node00:44
eworkit works at 1024x768x60 without any changes00:44
mattmanework: that's good to know00:44
eworkmattman, yah there should be enough tips and instructions there now to get ubuntu 10.04 installed from scratch00:46
eworkmattman, to the desktop00:47
mattmanework: great00:47
eworkmattman, thanks for your help I wouldn't have gotten this far without your pointers00:48

* rsalveti also needs to get some sleep :-)06:47
GrueMasterNot sure.  20100809 build + updates.  Not your kernel.06:48
GrueMasterHad to update to get the latest oem-config before filing a bug against it.06:48
rsalvetiGrueMaster: hm, because 2.6.34-903-omap4 should be our latest06:48
rsalvetiand we got an update to this version days ago06:48
rsalvetiso it could be a regression06:48
GrueMasterI think 902 is on the image.  Not sure what was pulled with the update.06:49

GrueMasterBah.  Today's omap4 image hangs past checking rootfs with no indicators.16:26
ogra_cmpcworked for me16:27
GrueMastersigh.16:27
lagThese things always work for the person how develops them ;)16:30
ogra_cmpcwell, i didnt do anything specific16:37
ogra_cmpcthe image behaves the exact same way for me as yesterday16:38
ogra_cmpc(which was the 09 image i tested)16:38
GrueMasterAnd the omap image fails oem-config.16:40
ograGrueMaster, ok, thanks, thats what i wanted to know16:43
ogracan you check in the rootshell if dbus is running for you ?16:43
GrueMasterI see dbus-daemon --system --fork in the ps ax output.16:44
ograweird16:45
ograi dont on omap416:45
GrueMasterMy omap4 doesn't get very far, unfortunately.16:46
ogrado you see anything in 7var/crash ?16:46
GrueMasterubiquity-dm16:46
ograonly that ?16:46
ograi got some more files there on omap416:46
GrueMasterMy omap4 doesn't appear to have actually mounted rootfs.  Last item is :16:50

ograthats after first reboot ?16:51
GrueMasteryes.  First boot succeeds.16:51
ogravery strange16:52
GrueMasterBetween boots, I have to stop and fix boot.scr to get video.  But it is the same settings I have always used, so I don't think they have any influence.16:52
ogranah, shouldnt16:55
GrueMasterAnd I checked.  Both today's and 0809 have the same kernel.16:55
GrueMaster(it would be nice to have a manifest to do full image comparisons - hint hint).16:56
=== JaMa is now known as JaMa|Sp
GrueMasterogra_cmpc: Rebooted panda.  Now I get X (still no oem-config).  Not sure why it started hanging like this.  Works fine with the Alpha 3 image.17:18
GrueMasterNow it just hands randomly with today's image, or 0809 image manually updated.17:19
prpplagueGrueMaster: you doing any audio on the panda?17:20
GrueMasterprpplague: Not yet.  Still working on gettng a stable image.  I can go back to Alpha 3 and do more testing there.17:21
=== hrw is now known as hrw|gprs
GrueMasterogra_cmpc: What would I file a bug against to note that the linux-headers-omap4 are not installed on the omap4 image?  We have omap, dove, and imx51, but no omap4.18:22
rsalvetiGrueMaster: the package is there, do you know who should depend on it?18:31
GrueMasterNot really.  I know the package is there.  Also, I am running the Alpha 3 image at the moment and doing an update, but it doesn't see the linux-image-2.6.34-903-omap4_2.6.34-903.7_armel.deb kernel as an upgrade option, even with dist-upgrade.18:33
GrueMasterAnd today's image isn't using it either.18:33
rsalvetiGrueMaster: yep, that's what I saw now18:34
rsalvetithe new package is there but the package linux-image-omap4 is depending on the older one18:34
rsalvetiDepends: linux-image-2.6.34-902-omap4, linux-firmware18:34
rsalvetithat should be the reason18:34
GrueMasteryea, that would be it.  sigh18:35
rsalvetinow we need to know why it was not updated with the kernel update18:35
rsalvetihm, is just the meta package18:40
GrueMasteryes.  But why isn't it getting updated?  Or is it stuck in the build queue?18:40
rsalvetiGrueMaster: could be18:41
GrueMasterLooks like 903.7 was built on the 7th.  Should have had a meta package by now.18:42
rsalvetiGrueMaster: but the meta package wasn't updated with the kernel package18:44
rsalvetior should it be automatically updated?18:44
GrueMasterNot sure.  Something for the kernel team.18:44
rsalvetilet me try to understand how it works18:44
rsalvetiargh, and we had the new kernel days ago and because of this you're testing an older version =\18:44
GrueMasteryep.18:45
GrueMasterOf course the images, while building, are currently broken due to bug 616581.18:46
ubot2Launchpad bug 616581 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "oem-config fails to run (affects: 1) (heat: 8)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/61658118:46
GrueMasterWhich is why I am running A3 and updating.  Very slowly updating.18:46
rsalvetiyep, but at least the kernel issues you got could be fixed already18:46
rsalvetitell me about it18:47
rsalvetithat's why for development I'm using a external usb hd18:47
GrueMasterusb HD is faster than the SD?18:49
GrueMasterI hadn't benchmarked it.18:49
hrw|gprson omap3?18:49
rsalvetipanda18:49
hrw|gprsprobably same18:49
rsalvetiit seems faster18:49
hrw|gprson omap3 you get 5MB/s read from sd and 14MB/s from same sd in usb card reader18:49
rsalvetiouch18:50
hrw|gprsthats from my tests on beagleboard18:50
GrueMasterI don't think the drive is the limiting factor.  Pulling updates from ports.ubuntu.com is slow on a good day.18:50
hrw|gprsand I have 0.5$ worth card reader18:50
GrueMasterSounds like something plars could look into.  He's into performance issues.18:51
plarsI am?18:51
GrueMasterI'm mainly concerned with functionality atm.18:51
GrueMasterI thought that was your focus this cycle.18:52
plarshrw|gprs: that's interesting, haven't looked at it personally though18:53
plarsGrueMaster: technically, my focus is tools18:53
GrueMasterah.18:54
plarswhich got turned into s/tools/infrastructure18:54
GrueMasterheh.18:54
plarswould be a good thing for the landing teams to look at18:55
plarsit makes me wonder what the results of the same test would be on dove or babbage18:55
plarsand others18:55
plarsis this an arm thing, or a beagle specific thing18:55
GrueMasterRight now, I am more concerned with getting a working image.  How fast it fails is irrelevant.  :P18:56
hrw|gprsarm or omap3 or a beagle18:56
hrw|gprsI have to check one day how fast beagleboard is with my 1.5TB sata harddrive when it is on usb bus.18:57
hrw|gprsover sata it does 110MB/s, over usb with sheevaplug it did 30MB/s without problems18:57
plarshrw|gprs: what are you testing with?18:58
hrw|gprsit was simple 'hdparm -tT'18:59
hrw|gprson beagle I used dd18:59
GrueMasterrsalveti: omap4 meta package is being looked into.19:00
rsalvetiGrueMaster: yep. ot19:00
rsalvetiit's missing an update19:00
rsalvetiI'll forward it to tgardner19:00
GrueMasterhelps having two kernel crunchers in my town.19:00
rsalvetiI'm just updating it and will send to the kernel devs19:01
rsalvetiargh, some io is killing my machine19:01
rsalvetiand pulse get stuck everytime19:01
hrw|gprsbut if you give me armv4t rootfs then I can do any set of strange tests19:02
rsalvetiGrueMaster: ogasawara is updating the linux-meta package19:18
rsalvetiwe should get it updated soon19:18
GrueMasterrsalveti: I know.  I have a back channel to her and others in Portland.  But thanks.19:18
rsalvetiGrueMaster: oh, you cheated19:20
rsalveti:-)19:20
GrueMasterOf course.19:20
GrueMasterSomething I learned at Intel.  It is sometimes easier to use back channels to get things done quickly.19:20
rsalvetiGrueMaster: sure19:23
rsalvetithe kernel seems to be a little mess19:24
rsalvetiyou have to update the kernel and also update the meta package19:24
rsalvetithey are at a git tree, and not bzr, so merge proposals don't basically work19:24
rsalvetiand the meta package is with a wrong version19:26
rsalvetiand wrong description19:26
rsalvetiGrueMaster: at tomorrow's image you'll get the latest kernel :-)19:34
GrueMasterYes, I know.19:34
rsalvetiwith new fixes and hopefully without any other new bug19:34
rsalveti:-)19:34
rsalvetiGrueMaster: yeah, why I'm talking with you, you must be cheating again19:34

GrueMasterAnd it appears to be SD related.19:55
