[01:12] <Lopi> anyone know how to use the matchbox-keyboard-im package? I have been searching for documentation, but can't seem to find any information about it.
[03:34] <Homefix1> Hi i was hoping you could help me with this problem:
[03:34] <Homefix1> I am using (on a dedicated ubuntu computer with Maverick edition)"https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RootfsFromScratch" example to create a qemu image using "sudo rootstock --fqdn ubuntu --login ubuntu --password ubuntu --seed nano --notarball --imagesize 3G".
[03:34] <Homefix1> I have also used the "sudo project-rootstock/rootstock --fqdn ubuntu --login ubuntu --password ubuntu --seed nano --notarball --imagesize 3G"
[03:35] <Homefix1> I am using these images (mostly for fun), to setup ubuntu onto my Evo and Epic smartphones using my tutoral here: "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10584098#post10584098" to chroot the image.
[03:35] <Homefix1> ITS AWSOME IT WORKS AND LOTS OF FUN!
[03:35] <Homefix1> well sorry for screaming but it really excites me this open source Ubuntu Stuff. (i am a win user, but I found a new toy)
[03:36] <Homefix1> I have noticed with my build images, using apt-get during install, i see "Can not write log, openpty() failed (/dev/pts not mounted?)"
[03:36] <Homefix1> error. My reserch says terminals wont work if system cannot write to /dev/pts.
[03:36] <Homefix1> The prebuilt image does not have this issue.
[03:36] <Homefix1> Is there modifications prior to or after creation, or is this someting different altogether.
[03:37] <Homefix1> I was finally able to create an image with the prompt showing. But am unable to reproduce it. I think playing with MAKEDEV fixed it but?
[07:11] <spherical_percep> Good evening - I would like to install lucid onto a beagleboard xM, and I was looking at the page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/BeagleNetInstall - however there is a comment there that says "This method will not work on a BeagleXM, as that platform requires x-loader & uboot support not available in Lucid."  So: any suggestions as to where to look for instructions pertinent to xM?
[11:14] <evaluate> hello
[11:16] <evaluate> I was wondering if anyone tried to get some compiled binaries from ubuntu-arm to android? I would like to get bash and a couple of other utilities on my android phone, and if I could avoid compiling them and could just copy them from the deb packages, that would be awesome, anyone else tried this?
[11:28] <sveinse> Are there any particular reason for rootstock to fetch pkgs from the release dist only and not from security or updates?
[12:16] <aksh1> what shud be the uboot parameter to boot kernel from usb
[12:16] <aksh1> ?>
[12:56] <lool> aksh1: You mean load your kernel from USB?
[12:56] <lool> or rootfs on USB?
[13:10] <aksh1> lool, i have ubbot n xloader in flash
[13:10] <aksh1> and kernel and rootfs in usb
[13:10] <aksh1> using minicom i got uboot prompt
[13:11] <aksh1> noe want to know the parameter of uboot to boot from usb
[13:12] <lool> aksh1: u-boot rarely supports USB
[13:12] <lool> aksh1: It does on some boards, but it's relatively rare
[13:13] <lool> aksh1: It's best to have your kernel in flash or mmc
[13:13] <aksh1> lool, as per my info we can keep kernel and rootfs in usb
[13:13] <aksh1> it has support
[13:16] <aksh1> lool, chromium os run using that way only
[13:37] <ksinkar> hello people
[13:37] <ksinkar> i used rootstock to make an arm image of ubuntu with username ubuntu and password root
[13:37] <ksinkar> i want to start the xserver using xstart
[13:41] <aksh1> using startx
[13:41] <ksinkar> i am not able to do that since i am not root and i cant do sudo startx since the user 'ubuntu' is not in the sudoers list
[13:41] <ksinkar> what do i do?
[13:42] <aksh1> ksinkar, using chroot you need to change password for root
[13:42] <aksh1> and then login as root
[13:42] <aksh1> run startx
[13:44] <ogra> fix sudores instead
[13:45] <ksinkar> ogra: how can i fix sudoers?
[13:45] <ogra> but you shouldnt use startx as root anyway
[13:45] <ogra> did you try as user ?
[13:45] <ksinkar> ogra: yes
[13:45] <ogra> it should just work
[13:45] <ogra> whats the error if you try as user
[13:46] <ksinkar> X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting.
[13:46] <ogra> thats weird
[13:47] <sveinse> ogra: Are there any particular reason for rootstock to fetch pkgs from the release dist only and not from security or updates as well?
[13:49] <ogra> sveinse, iirc there is a --extra-mirrors arg you can use to add these
[13:49] <ogra> but no, apart from the fact that nobody cared to implement that as a default
[13:49] <sveinse> orga: Yes, there are. I'm just curious why not install the initial system from updates/security in the first place
[13:49] <ogra> ksinkar, is that the only line of outout ?
[13:50] <ogra> *output
[13:50] <ogra> there should be more
[13:50] <ksinkar> ogra: yes
[13:50] <ogra> sveinse, rootstock is in maintenance mode, nobody does actual development anymore on it, patches accepted ;)
[13:51] <ksinkar> ogra: after that i kind of hangs and i press Ctrl + C
[13:51] <ksinkar> X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting.
[13:51] <ksinkar> giving up.
[13:51] <ksinkar> xinit:  No such file or directory (errno 2):  unable to connect to X server
[13:51] <ksinkar> xinit:  No such process (errno 3):  Server error.
[13:51] <ksinkar> ogra: full output
[13:52] <ogra> err
[13:52] <ogra> but you have xinit installed, right ?
[13:52] <ksinkar> this is the output at startup
[13:52] <ksinkar> [fail] * Starting GNOME Display Manager...
[13:52] <ksinkar> ogra: i actually want to start my GNOME display manager
[13:53] <ogra> did you check why it doesnt start ?
[13:53] <sveinse> ogra, that interesting... We're basing our product on rootstock to build the root file system...
[13:53] <ogra> sveinse, well, feel free to send patches :)
[13:54] <sveinse> ogra, sure, np. Out of interest: how do you guys install the system if you are not using rootstock?
[13:54] <ogra> we use the preinstalled images
[13:55] <ogra> but that indeed only works for supported arches
[13:55] <ogra> though they are easy to modify for other stuff
[13:55] <sveinse> and for particular HW boards, right?
[13:55] <ogra> yes
[13:56] <sveinse> Our board is custom, and thus requires custom bootloader and kernel
[13:56] <ogra> but as i said, easy to modify
[13:59] <ogra> zcart the omap3 image to an SD, mount it, chroot into it, remove the omap3 kernel, add what you need, exit chroot, tar up (using --numeric-owner for tar) the content of the second part
[13:59] <ogra> *zcat
[14:00] <ogra> thats for example how i create the images for a tegra2 based ac100 netbook here
[14:00] <sveinse> What's the "base" package for these images? ubuntu-netbook or something?
[14:00] <ogra> yep
[14:01] <ogra> but once chrooted you can cheange it to anything you like indeed
[14:02] <sveinse> Yes, chroot and binfmt i great
[14:02] <sveinse> s/i/is/
[14:03] <ksinkar> ogra: that is what i am trying to find out
[14:03] <ogra> we should probably think about a graphical modification kit some day ... i.e. something that chroots automatically, fires up synaptic inside the chroot and tars up automatically
[14:04] <ogra> ksinkar, well, i would start checking /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[14:04] <sveinse> ogra, I made something similar. Not graphical, but a bash script which can execute any command inside a chrooted rootfs.
[14:05] <aksh1> ksinkar, which ubuntu version u r using ?
[14:05] <sveinse> I use it to run apt-get for the target
[14:05] <ksinkar> aksh1: jaunty
[14:05] <ogra> ugh
[14:06] <ogra> thats unsupported
[14:06] <ogra> use something more recent, jaunty is EOL
[14:06] <aksh1> ksinkar, what is rootstock command u used?
[14:06] <aksh1> it should work
[14:09] <ksinkar> sudo rootstock --fqdn OMAPL138 --login ubuntu --password root --imagesize 2G --dist jaunty --serial ttyS2 --seed xfce4,gdm
[14:11] <ksinkar> i get this output while ubuntu starting up:
[14:11] <ksinkar> EXT2-fs warning: mounting unchecked fs, running e2fsck is recommended
[14:11] <ksinkar> should this have any effect
[14:13] <ogra> no
[14:14] <ogra> did you check the log above ?
[14:33] <ksinkar> ogra: the log that u specified does not exist
[14:33] <ksinkar> and i am currently running in init 2 according to the runlevel command
[14:34] <ksinkar> there is a directory for gdm error logs but it is empty
[14:34] <ogra> very strange
[14:35] <ksinkar> is there any way to send any graphics to the screen
[14:47] <ksinkar> visudo is not allowing me to edit the sudoers file
[15:58] <GrueMaster> ogra: I filed a bug against jasper_initramfs and uploaded a patch to fix it yesterday.  It won't run in it's current released state.
[16:41] <ogra> GrueMaster, yeah, sorry, i only saw the bug after i uploaded the fix
[16:41] <GrueMaster> heh.
[16:41] <ogra> i saw your irc ping before looking at bugmail
[16:46] <rsalveti> ogra: is your fix included already at today's image?
[16:46] <rsalveti> ogra: then we need to check what's happening with the omap 3 one
[16:46] <rsalveti> that's only building the fs
[17:17] <GrueMaster> Interesting.  Since I couldn't make it far with yesterday's image until I fixed jasper_growroot, I only now tried logging into a fresh image.  It just complained that there are no valid sessions available.  Did UNE-EFL get dropped off?
[17:18] <rsalveti> not that I know
[17:31] <GrueMaster> rsalveti: I see you updated the unity-2d-launcher crash bug with maverick results.  I was just getting ready to do that.  As soon as we can pinpoint the bug, I'll reassign the bug to the proper QT library (as I am sure that is where the problem is).
[17:56] <rsalveti> GrueMaster: sure, hopefully we'll get a new valid omap 4 image soon, then we can easily reproduce with it
[17:56] <rsalveti> I only have an older natty
[17:56] <rsalveti> need to update, and takes quite a while
[17:56] <rsalveti> GrueMaster: did you check if the resize and install worked fine after the jasper fix?
[17:56] <GrueMaster> I take it today's image is still borked?  I'm just now downloading it.
[17:56] <rsalveti> don't know yet, didn't test
[17:57] <rsalveti> not with my panda today
[17:57] <GrueMaster> Actually, I will be OOO here soon.  Need to work on home remodel project and go shopping with the wife & kid (NCommander).
[17:57] <rsalveti> heheh
[17:58] <rsalveti> also going off now, girlfriend's birthday
[17:58]  * rsalveti bbl
[17:58] <GrueMaster> Yesterday was the first of two really large bonus checks for my wife.  Gots to spend it.
