[06:55] <ranjith> hi all .. I was trying to get ubuntu 10.10 netbook workign on  my omap4-blaze ..
[06:56] <ranjith> I downloaded the image from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-netbook/ports/releases/10.10/release/
[06:56] <ranjith> and followed the instruction from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/OMAPMaverickInstall
[06:57] <ranjith> but when i inserted the sd card to my omap4-blaze and powered it up.. nothing is happening..
[06:57] <ranjith> it is just dead..
[06:57] <ranjith> any one ahve any idea .?
[07:25] <ranjith> hello anyone here ..?
[08:20] <ranjith> hello
[08:21] <ranjith> I am not able to boot the ubuntu-netbook pre-installed image on omap4-blaze .. any one have any idea about how to boot it..?
[11:05] <jo-erlend> natty a1 is out. Is there any rebuilt images for arm as well?
[11:06] <ogra_ac> jo-erlend, see /topic
[11:06] <ogra_ac> only omap4 atm though
[11:06] <jo-erlend> oh... Sorry :)
[11:06] <jo-erlend> oh, ok. When will there be support for omap3?
[11:06] <ogra_ac> as soon as we have sorted out the kernel situation
[11:07] <ogra_ac> the plan is to switch to the linaro kernel for omap3
[11:07] <ogra_ac> but that needs some commitment from security and kernel teams
[11:07] <ogra_ac> since linaro doesnt provide any support after release for their kernel
[11:08] <ogra_ac> (no committed support at least)
[11:08] <jo-erlend> oh, ok. But it will happen?
[11:08] <ogra_ac> lool, what were the symlink errors you saw with x-loader ? i remember that getting the patch for the u-boot headers to work was very very tricky
[11:10] <ogra_ac> (all headers are linked to out of tree files that only exist in the u-boot tree)
[11:41] <lool> ogra_ac: It is with the u-boot headers patch
[11:41] <lool> ogra_ac: I basically dpkg-source -x + debuild, and that breaks
[11:42] <ogra_ac> well if you changed the upstream source it might not properly replace symlinks with files, thats what i meant
[11:42] <ogra_ac> but seems you didnt do that
[11:45] <ogra_ac> that would be my only explanation
[11:46] <ogra_ac> when i last built it (i'm always using dpkg-buildpackage -b though) it worked fine
[11:47] <ogra_ac> (that was when you asked about signGP.c)
[11:59] <lool> ogra_ac: I didn't change it
[11:59] <lool> ogra_ac: Did you try it out?
[11:59] <lool> ogra_ac: Grab x-loader-omap4 and try building it
[12:00] <lool> I'm doing apt-get source and debuild -aarmel -us -uc -b on my desktop
[12:00] <lool> dh_quilt_patch
[12:00] <lool> Application de 01-add-missing-uboot-headers.patch
[12:00] <lool> patching file include/asm/arch-arm1136/clocks.h
[12:00] <lool> patch: **** Can't create file include/asm/arch-arm1136/clocks.h : No such file or directory
[12:00] <lool> that's with L24.9git20100901-0ubuntu3, currently in the archive
[12:02] <ogra_ac> builds flawless here
[12:03] <ogra_ac> http://paste.ubuntu.com/539945/
[12:04] <ogra_ac> patch applies fine
[12:04] <ogra_ac>    dh_md5sums
[12:04] <ogra_ac>    dh_builddeb
[12:04] <ogra_ac> dpkg-deb: Baue Paket »x-loader-omap4« in »../x-loader-omap4_L24.9git20100901-0ubuntu3_armel.deb«.
[12:04] <ogra_ac> and finishes fine
[12:08] <ogra_ac> tar tzf ../x-loader-omap4_L24.9git20100901.orig.tar.gz |grep arch-arm1136
[12:08] <ogra_ac> also returns proper dirs for me
[12:08] <ogra_ac> s/dirs/files
[12:15] <ranjith> I am not able to boot the ubuntu-netbook pre-installed image on omap4-blaze .. any one have any idea about how to boot it..?
[12:15] <ogra_ac> ranjith, what silicon version is your blaze ?
[12:16] <ogra_ac> note that ES1 isnt supported
[12:32] <ranjith> ogra_ac: hi, how can i know the silicon version ..?
[12:33] <ogra_ac> ranjith, good question, i dont know
[12:33] <ranjith> also, while i pulled the card out and put in back in pc after lefting it on the device for some time, the card is formated again,.. ie it is note having hte partition as i had created..
[12:34] <ranjith> sorry for that question, i am new to this board thats why i asked..
[12:34] <ogra_ac> you created partitions ?
[12:34] <ogra_ac> you shouldnt do that, the image needs to go to the device directly (mmcblk0)
[12:34] <ogra_ac> it will repartition itself on first boot
[12:35] <ranjith> so where should i put the MLO, ubooot and uImage ..?
[12:35] <ogra_ac> in the first partition after you zcat'ed the image to the device
[12:35] <ranjith> ok
[12:35] <ogra_ac> you need to do the zcat, then remove and re-insert the card
[12:35] <ranjith> so first i ahve to keep the card without any partition..
[12:36] <ranjith> ok
[12:36] <ogra_ac> after that you should be able to mount the first partition and replace the bootloader files
[12:36] <ranjith> but i already did the gunzip.. and now the image is in .img format not .img.gz ..
[12:36] <ogra_ac> the image is partitioned, so its essential that you write ti to the device, not to a partition
[12:37] <ogra_ac> well, if you prefer the complex way, and gunzipped already, use dd instead of zcat
[12:38] <ranjith> So let me try that. as i it is already gunziped i think there wont be any difference in doing dd other than zcat..
[12:38] <ranjith> thanks for the help..
[12:38] <ranjith> let me try this..
[12:38] <ogra_ac> right, technically there shouldnt be a difference, it just eats your diskspace on the host
[12:38] <ranjith> ok
[12:51] <ranjith> ogra_ac: now i have flashed the image to the card .. should i copy the MLO, u-boot, uImage etc now.. or after the first boot only ..?
[12:51] <ogra_ac> before
[12:51] <ranjith> ok
[12:51] <ogra_ac> re-plug the card
[12:52] <ogra_ac> vfat should be mountable then
[12:52] <ogra_ac> replace the files and boot the blaze
[12:52] <ranjith> ok
[12:52] <ranjith> both parttions are mounted..
[12:53] <ranjith> and i ahve replaced the respective file sin the first partition..
[12:53] <ogra_ac> k
[12:53] <dcordes> tmzt: no space left
[12:53] <dcordes> tmzt: but it seems I met all other requirements
[13:30] <lool> ogra_ac: I found the issue with x-loader-omap4: it's ecryptfs
[13:31] <lool> ogra_ac: it builds in my /tmp but not in my /home
[13:40] <ranjith> ogra_ac: it is installed.. and working fine.. thanks for the help. good night..
[13:53] <jo-erlend> how come rmadison doesn't show ARM?
[13:58] <ogra_ac> lool, wow, thats bad
[17:21] <tmzt> dcordes: desktop image? no space on the server or the image is too small?
[19:33] <LetoThe2nd> when following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RootfsFromScratch, it fails with qemu: fatal: VS[LR]I.64 not implemented
[19:34] <LetoThe2nd> is this a known issue? qemu outdated?
[19:54] <dcordes> tmzt: ah right. I didn't specify the image size... next try
[19:57] <dcordes> LetoThe2nd: is that some conflict related to host platform ?
[19:57] <dcordes> LetoThe2nd: x86 vs x86_64 ?
[19:58] <LetoThe2nd> dcordes: don't know - i just tried on x64.
[20:39] <dcordes> tmzt: looks good
[20:48] <luis_> hello everybody, can I install ubuntu on a cheap sylvania  arm netbook
[20:48] <tmzt> luis_: that requires a lot more information, but if it's the wmxxxx version then probably not, unless you install jaunty
[20:51] <luis_> i dont know which version it is, just bought it from cvs. It comes with Windows CE, all i want is to get rid of it and install some version of linux on it
[22:02] <dcordes> tmzt: connection got cut and can't login again
[22:03] <dcordes> a pity people have such short attention span
[22:03] <dcordes> it would have been interesting to discuss luis_' wince device in #htc-linux

[22:13] <dcordes> hm magic rootstock random freeze
[22:14] <dcordes> Unpacking humanity-icon-theme (from .../humanity-icon-theme_0.5.3.2_all.deb) ...
[22:15] <dcordes> tmzt: it might be better to use your method and start off with the minimal image..
[22:15] <dcordes> it's hopeless waste of time to try making a desktop or netbook image with rootstock
[22:15] <dcordes> good night
