[01:48] <smplman>  i have ubuntu 10.10 running on my beagleboard xm. im trying to configure my lilliput um70 7" usb touchscreen. I have the screen working with the display link drivers, but i cant get the touchscreen to work.
[01:49] <smplman> i have looked through the input devices, but i cant find any for the usb touchscreen. I did find an event for the power button on the monitor.
[04:36] <xerebz> i'm trying to get out audio to come out of the beagle
[04:36] <xerebz> i tested powered speakers on the same file on a fresh mplayer install on my laptop and it was fine
[04:36] <xerebz> i used the speakers on the bb
[04:37] <xerebz> running the same file and mplayer but there's no sound
[04:37] <xerebz> what are some of the things i can check to see what's wrong?
[04:37] <xerebz> btw mplayer acts the exact same it looks like it's playing i just can't hear anything
[08:24] <hrw> morning
[08:35] <persia> hrw, You had a flash-kernel fix for the efikas: have you tested that with linux-linaro-imx51?  Does it work?  Has it been applied to natty?
[08:49] <hrw> persia: merging flash-kernel is still on ogra's todolist
[08:50] <hrw> persia: and I did not tested it with other kernels then own ones (or genesi one)
[08:50] <persia> Where is your branch/bug?
[08:51] <hrw> bug 671027
[08:51] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 671027 in flash-kernel "Add Efika MX Smartbook/Smarttop support" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/671027
[08:57] <persia> Thanks.
[08:57] <persia> What is expected to create /boot/boot.script?
[08:57] <persia> Also, this looks like it wouldn't work for a bare install (where /boot/uImage and /boot/uInitrd don't exist yet)
[08:58] <lool> hrw: i see you're adding efikamx support in your patch as well; did you test that successfully?
[09:00] <hrw> lool: no, but genesi version had same code for both
[09:00] <hrw> lool: it is cleaned version of their code
[09:00] <lool> Ok
[09:01] <hrw> persia: I had /boot/boot.script on my system, similar one I have on panda/ubuntu. where from it came? no idea
[09:02] <hrw> persia: and this code is not perfect but works for me. there were no comments on improving code anyway
[09:02] <persia> We'll need something to create it, if we expect it to be there.  Obviously, if it's already there, fine, but consider the case where someone wants to completely reinstall.
[09:02] <persia> Also, why comment out check_subarch?
[09:02]  * persia is currently trying to provide comments on code
[09:03] <hrw> persia: let me boot efika to check at original code
[09:03] <persia> Thanks.  If you're busy with something else, feel free to tell me to ask about this another time :)
[09:04] <hrw> persia: add comments to the bug - this will maybe take genesi guys to react too
[09:04] <hrw> *** /dev/sda2 will be checked for errors at next reboot ***
[09:04] <hrw> I need to track down script which says that and kill it
[09:06] <hrw> persia: looks like 'check_subarch' checks does machine runs proper flavour of debian/ubuntu kernel. if this is right then it has no use on efika so far as it runs only unofficial kernels (at least with ubuntu)
[09:07] <hrw> whole flash-kernel script is full of copy/paste code ;(
[09:09] <hrw> efikamx_flash_kernel() is more or less based on code for dove
[09:13] <persia> hrw, The efika can boot with linux-linaro-imx51, so we should expect that.  That's perfectly official.
[09:23] <persia> lool, hrw: would you mind attaching /proc/cpu for each of the MX and Sb to bug #718615?  Needs samples to match against the kernel selector.  Thanks!

[09:29] <lool> persia: I'm not a fan of subarch detection; we're trying to build a common kernel with support for more than one SoC, so uname -r wont mean much anymore
[09:30] <hrw> persia: I have efikasb only
[09:30] <hrw> added
[09:31] <lool> persia: cpuinfo > will add when I get the chance to boot it
[09:31] <hrw> persia: efikamx can be taken from flash-kernel patch ;d
[09:31] <persia> hrw, I need the *complete* cpuinfo, for the base-installer test suite.
[09:31] <hrw> lool: subarch is used in many places other then just scripts like flash-kernel
[09:31] <persia> lool, Thanks.  no huge rush.
[09:31] <hrw> persia: mkey
[09:32] <persia> I suspect that the MX looks almost identical to the SB, but want to be careful so that I don't break MX folks.
[09:32] <persia> (especially because right now, MX works and SB doesn't, with the in-archive kernel)
[09:33] <hrw> define 'works' probably
[09:36]  * hrw -> breakfast
[09:37] <persia> The information I have is that linaro-linux-imx51 boots successfully on the MX.  I'm following upstream, and will prepare a queue of other things to get merged just after the update to 2.6.38-rc5, which *should* support SB as well.
[09:57] <lool> hrw: Where is it used?
[09:57] <lool> hrw: There is another subarch concept in d-i, which I believe is computed differently (from cpuinfo, not uname -r)
[10:02] <hrw> ok

[12:13] <persia> Cool.  Thanks.
[12:14] <persia> lool, hrw got steev to submit the cpuinfo: no need for you to hunt it up later.
[12:14] <hrw> steev has to2 and to3 efikamx so extra info were given too
[12:21] <lool> persia: thanks
[12:28] <ogra> you would need to extend archdetect to make use of the actual revision info, currently all detection is based on the Hardware: line
[12:29] <davidm> g'day persia you are around quite late today
[12:30] <persia> davidm, DMB meeting today.
[12:31] <persia> ogra, I'm going to pretend to not care, unless you see some reason why it's important to distinguish the T02 from T03 devices.
[12:32] <ogra> i dont think it is
[12:32] <ogra> just noted that the different cpuinfos wont gain you much there
[12:33] <hrw> the only difference is neon in to3 and noneon in to2 - but thats handled by kernel to not give neon cpuflag for to2
[12:35] <persia> Anyway, I'll toss them into the test cases.  Doesn't matter.
[12:35] <xerebz> does anyone have a quick link to how to fix the no audio issue for beagleboard xms?

[17:04] <JYRO> hi everybody....
[17:05] <JYRO> where I download the arm toolchain??
[17:06] <JYRO> I have the 3.3.2 version... but I need the 4.1 version
[17:11] <hrw> JYRO: which ubuntu ver you are using?
[17:12] <JYRO> one moment please while I see that
[17:14] <JYRO> jaunty, and 2.6.28.19 kernel
[17:20] <hrw> sorry, there are cross toolchains for lucid and newer only
[17:21] <JYRO> really?  :(
[17:22] <JYRO> ok.. in my laptop I have a 10.10 ubuntu version.....
[17:22] <JYRO> How I can install the arm toolchain?
[17:22] <JYRO> I have my laptop at my side
[17:22] <hrw> on 10.10: apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi
[17:23] <ogra>  see the channel topic
[17:23] <ogra> there is a link
[17:23] <hrw> substiture gcc with g++ gobjc gfortran if want other langs
[17:24] <JYRO> this install get the utilbins too?
[17:24] <hrw> which utilbins?
[17:25] <JYRO> I need to compile a kernel for a ARM target.... just I need the toolchain?
[17:27] <hrw> you may need uboot-mkimage package too
[17:27] <prpplague> JYRO: if all you need is just a toolchain, you can try getting the codesourcery packages
[17:28] <prpplague> JYRO: http://omapedia.org/wiki/Android:_Configuring_the_Host_PC#ARM_Cross_Compiler
[17:29] <hrw> prpplague: since 10.10 ubuntu contains cross toolchain
[17:29] <prpplague> hrw: ahh
[17:29] <hrw> prpplague: took me some time to make them ;D
[17:30] <JYRO> I'm using a M-501 development kit....  in this moment I learn how to compile a kernel for a target.... then I would try probe a example module ....
[17:33] <JYRO> hrw... I try use the apt-get command and the system said that it can't found the gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi packet
[17:36] <JYRO> hrw... I'm sorry... but my ubuntu version is karmic ....
[17:37] <JYRO> is it the reason why I can't install the arm toolchain?
[17:37] <hrw> like I said - you need at least 10.04 (lucid)
[17:38] <JYRO> I'm sorry for that....
[17:39] <hrw> no need to
[17:40] <JYRO> hrw another question...  I find this page
[17:40] <JYRO> http://www.gnuarm.com/
[17:41] <JYRO> can I install this toolchain??
[17:41] <hrw> better go to http://emdebian.org or to code sourcery labs
[17:41] <hrw> I would avoid anything under gcc 4.3.3
[17:41] <hrw> which is old too
[17:42] <JYRO> who is the last gcc version??
[17:42] <hrw> 4.5.2
[17:43]  * hrw ends a day
[17:43] <JYRO> hrw... a last question...
[17:43] <hrw> go
[17:44] <JYRO> can I install debian packets in ubuntu?? I'm sorry for this question, but I newbie :$
[17:45] <hrw> I would not suggest it for a newbie.
[17:46] <JYRO> can I crash my system if I can't install it correctly??

=== ian_brasil_ is now known as ian_brasil
[18:10] <JYRO> someone knows how I can get the public key from http://emdebian.org??
[18:14] <LetoThe2nd> JYRO: i guess you're here... and therefore, i suggest to start reading - at the top.
[18:15] <LetoThe2nd> http://www.emdebian.org/crosstools.html
[18:15] <LetoThe2nd> JYRO: there's a topic "secure apt"...
[18:16] <JYRO> LetoThe2nd... thanks for that... I read this link now
[18:17] <LetoThe2nd> JYRO: i've seen that the documentation for your specific development board is outdated and rather crappy... but in general, reading is a _very_ good idea if you want to get into arm/embedded/kernel stuff :-)
[18:19] <LetoThe2nd> JYRO: BTW - your target is not able to run ubuntu, if that's what you're heading for.
[18:20] <JYRO> LetoThe2nd...  I tell you that I need....
[18:21] <JYRO> I have a M-501 target, is a development kit for a ARM91 SoC....
[18:21] <LetoThe2nd> JYRO: i know. you told us, and i looked it up.
[18:22] <JYRO> ok... :$
[18:23] <JYRO> in this machine... I have the 3.3.2 version for arm-linux toolchain.... that's very old....
[18:23] <LetoThe2nd> JYRO: and to get you nomenclature right: it's not an "arm91" development kit, it an "arm9" platform, and in that one in the at91 family incarnation myde by atmel.
[18:23] <LetoThe2nd> JYRO: i know, you told us.
[18:24] <JYRO> ok LetoThe2nd...  thanks
[18:24] <LetoThe2nd> JYRO: but because you are asking in the #ubuntu-arm channel, there is the possibility that you might be aiming to run ubuntu on that target. and that is not possible.
[18:26] <JYRO> I know it, I don't need to run ubuntu in this target... just I need to run the 2.6 kernel linux
[18:26] <JYRO> am I in the wrong place?
[18:27] <GrueMaster> How is the natty-server-armel+dove.img even building?  I thought the dove kernel was removed from natty?
[18:29] <GrueMaster> JYRO: Unfortunately, yes.  This channel is specifically for developers discussing current ubuntu builds on current arm hardware.
[18:29] <LetoThe2nd> JYRO: a bit, yes :-) it's not much of a problem, but mainly this channel is about running ubuntu on arms, not about making arms work using ubuntu as the development platform.
[18:29] <GrueMaster> Try #debian-arm on OFTC network.
[18:29] <LetoThe2nd> JYRO: you maybe want to checkout elinux.org and see if they have an IRC channel. or if you have decided which toolchain to use, head for their channel.
[18:31] <LetoThe2nd> JYRO: specifically: http://elinux.org/Toolchains
[18:31] <JYRO> LetoThe2nd: thank you very much....
[18:32] <JYRO> GrueMaster: thank you too!
[18:36] <JYRO> it's too late for me .... I'm going for my house now...... thanks for all!!
[19:15] <prpplague> hey is there any updated info on ubuntu build for the ac100?
=== zul_ is now known as zul
[20:10] <ogra> prpplague, there is a guy in the #ac100 channel hacking on getting the overlay filesystem from linux4tegra to work on it, beyond that not much, without nvidias help it will always be hackish and unstable
[20:10] <prpplague> ogra: ahh
[20:10] <ogra> look for "phh" in the channel if you want more details
[20:11] <ogra> i dont touch the L4T crap
[20:11] <prpplague> ogra: i was just curious
[20:11] <ogra> k
[20:11] <ogra> :)
[20:11] <prpplague> ogra: there were some conversation threads on some of the hardware channels about doing open source laptop/netbook design
[20:11] <ogra> heh, i doubt nvidia will ever get to that
[20:12] <ogra> they are nvidia after all
[20:12] <prpplague> ogra: sorry, the conversation turned to asking if ubuntu was available for any arm based netbook
[20:12] <ogra> ah, ok
[20:12] <ogra> yes, indeed, the image is publically available
[20:13] <prpplague> ahh dandy
[20:13]  * prpplague would love to do a omap4 netbook if only he could get the chips
[20:13] <ogra> either in my plain version that doesnt use any nvidia bits and thus has no features or in phh's version that has all features but is neither upgradeable nor stable
[20:14] <ogra> i heard it slowly gets better wrt chips
[20:14] <prpplague> ogra: indeed
=== zul_ is now known as zul

[21:06] <armin76> prpplague: you can also use gentoo :D there's some ppl on #ac100 using gentoo as well :D
[21:06] <GrueMaster> But who (in their right mind) would use gentoo?  :P
[21:06] <armin76> </spam>
[21:07] <armin76> GrueMaster: i'm pretty sure your dreams are powered by gentoo :P
