| JakeJBailey | can I use ubuntu repos on debian for beagleboard? | 22:38 |
| dmart | JakeJBailey: do you mean you have debian on your beagle and want to install ubuntu packages? | 22:45 |
| JakeJBailey | exactly | 22:48 |
| dmart | JakeJBailey: though I've not tried it myself, I believe it may work in many cases | 22:48 |
| dmart | You may hit some ABI issues, because debian builds for ARMv4, but Ubuntu builds for ARMv7 with the Thumb-2 instruction set | 22:49 |
| JakeJBailey | cool, I am having trouble finding the repos for arm | 22:49 |
| dmart | deb http://ports.ubuntu.com maverick main [etc.] | 22:50 |
| JakeJBailey | you mean just becuase I am running debian I can not compile things for ARMv7 and have it work? | 22:50 |
| dmart | It depends on the current toolchain in debian - I believe you should be able to compile for v7 | 22:50 |
| dmart | But the debian archive is not built for v7 by default | 22:50 |
| JakeJBailey | okay cool, my ultimate goal here is to run openarena | 22:50 |
| dmart | I guess the answer is - try it ;) | 22:51 |
| JakeJBailey | dont know if going from a v4 build to v7 will help performance that much but i would imagine it would have to help some | 22:51 |
| dmart | If you are always running on capable hardware, you have the option to enable hardware floating point - again, for maximum compatibility the debian archive is built for soft-float only | 22:53 |
| dmart | It depends on what kind of code the package you're actually contains though. | 22:54 |
| JakeJBailey | even for an opengl game such as openarena? | 22:56 |
| dmart | JakeJBailey: I guess it's more a question of backend libraries and/or graphics acceleration then | 22:58 |
| dmart | have to go, I'm afraid... | 22:58 |
| dmart | good luck | 22:58 |
