| MrCurious | sigh, trying to install omap4 add ons on 10.10 i get package dependencies cannot be resolved ubuntu-omap4-extras | 05:56 |
|---|---|---|
| MrCurious | wow its in a dependency nightmare | 05:57 |
| MrCurious | is 10.10 for pandaboard all broken? | 05:58 |
| MrCurious | anyone here isntalled 10.10 on a pandaboard, and remember if there was any issues installing the TI omap addons? | 06:10 |
| MrCurious | interesting 17MB/s reading from USB on 10.10, and 8MB/s on 11.04 | 07:36 |
| rsalveti | MrCurious: well, afaik nobody broke it, but I remember one time TI just removed some packages by mistake | 08:36 |
| rsalveti | MrCurious: what packages can't you install? | 08:36 |
| MrCurious | on 10.10, i try the install ti add ons for omap | 08:36 |
| MrCurious | and it barfs | 08:36 |
| MrCurious | i.e. GUI wont let me install it | 08:36 |
| rsalveti | MrCurious: sure, but can you try identifying on the command line what dependency is broken? | 08:37 |
| MrCurious | then i try to install the omap4 meta package from command line, and it barfs on dependencies | 08:37 |
| MrCurious | ubuntu-omap4-extras | 08:37 |
| MrCurious | that one has failed dependencies, that it cant resolve, i think one was some package with -bad in its name | 08:38 |
| rsalveti | MrCurious: oh, ok | 08:38 |
| rsalveti | MrCurious: https://launchpad.net/~tiomap-dev/+archive/release?field.series_filter=maverick | 08:38 |
| MrCurious | depends on ubuntu-omap4-extras-multimedia but it is not going to be installed | 08:38 |
| rsalveti | MrCurious: there's a newer version for gst-bad | 08:38 |
| rsalveti | that's why | 08:38 |
| rsalveti | we need to update the package | 08:39 |
| MrCurious | depends ... omap4-extras-connectivity but is not going to be installed | 08:39 |
| MrCurious | E: brocken packages | 08:39 |
| rsalveti | MrCurious: can you open a bug against https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-omap4-extras-multimedia? | 08:39 |
| MrCurious | those are the 2 its barfing on now | 08:39 |
| * MrCurious blinks | 08:39 | |
| MrCurious | i think i should re-install and verify before starting a fire | 08:39 |
| MrCurious | although, i have done it twice so far :) | 08:40 |
| MrCurious | so maybe starting a fire is ok now | 08:40 |
| rsalveti | it's probably broken, because ubuntu updated the package with a newer version | 08:40 |
| rsalveti | then it'll try to mix ubuntu packages with the ti ones | 08:40 |
| rsalveti | and it'll break, for sure | 08:40 |
| MrCurious | gah. need an account | 08:41 |
| MrCurious | its multimedia and connectivity that are broken | 08:42 |
| MrCurious | but the interesting thing was that usb speeds double compared to 11.04 | 08:42 |
| MrCurious | wow! and ping times are better | 08:43 |
| gildean | i think it's stupid that you need an account for bug report made from inside the os, couldn't they just like record the ip and use some verification that it's not a bot? | 08:43 |
| MrCurious | from inside the os? | 08:43 |
| MrCurious | i am on osx | 08:44 |
| gildean | a lot of reports don't get made because it requires an account | 08:44 |
| gildean | well i mean from inside ubuntu | 08:44 |
| MrCurious | i will try to get a bug in tomorrow night. its late here | 08:44 |
| gildean | it morning here | 08:44 |
| MrCurious | almost 1 here | 08:45 |
| gildean | almost 11 in the morning here | 08:46 |
| MrCurious | upside, ping doesnt speed up disk reads | 08:47 |
| MrCurious | so the 10.10 kernel doesnt have THAT bug | 08:47 |
| gildean | anyways, the very least they should add an option to sign-in with other accounts that you can use an api with, like google, ubuntu-one etc. for making bug-reports | 08:47 |
| MrCurious | next test, upgrade the install to a 11.04 and see if it suffers a disk slow down | 08:48 |
| MrCurious | iirc i had a install db corruption, that may have caused this upgrade path bug? | 08:50 |

| kunguz | Which desktop do you suggest to use with a beagleboard? | 09:11 |
| ogra_ | a flat one, so it doesnt slide off to one or the other side | 09:12 |
| kunguz | sudo apt-get install jwm ; is this enough to install jwm desktop on ubuntu? | 09:18 |
| kunguz | I installed lxde with sudo apt-get install lxde, how do I switch to lxde desktop? | 10:42 |
| Ursinha | kunguz: you should choose it in the login screen | 10:42 |
| kunguz | Ursinha: I installed it in ubuntu-arm headless, therefore a graphical login screen does not appear... | 10:43 |
| Ursinha | hmm | 10:43 |
| === ogra is now known as Guest69691 | ||
| Ursinha | well, there always the old way (.xinitrc; startx :P) | 10:44 |
| Ursinha | kunguz: let me see if I find the correct answer | 10:44 |
| Ursinha | kunguz: there's a file, /etc/gdm/custom.conf, and the defaultsession is there... I believe you can set it up there | 10:47 |
| Ursinha | kunguz: you have gdm but can't use it? :P | 10:47 |
| rsalveti | kunguz: if you installed gdm it should just work by default | 10:49 |
| rsalveti | unless you specify 'text' on the kernel cmdline | 10:50 |
| Ursinha | rsalveti: you mean that when I install a *-desktop package, it sets the default session to that? that would be weird | 10:50 |
| Ursinha | unless that's the only *-desktop you have installed.... | 10:51 |
| rsalveti | Ursinha: I mean, gdm should at least show itself | 10:51 |
| Ursinha | rsalveti: he says he installed ubuntu-arm headless | 10:52 |
| rsalveti | Ursinha: headless shouldn't have gdm, but I believe if you install lxde it should bring gdm | 10:53 |
| rsalveti | but not sure, need to check the dependencies | 10:53 |
| Ursinha | makes sense | 10:53 |
| Ursinha | it uses lxdm | 10:54 |
| === Guest69691 is now known as ogra_ | ||
| Ursinha | at least that's what the package in natty desktop says | 10:54 |
| Ursinha | kunguz: apt-cache show lxde should show you the dependencies | 10:58 |
| kunguz | Ursinha: rsalveti thank you guys, now lxde is active | 11:05 |
| Ursinha | cool :) | 11:23 |
| Ursinha | kunguz: and what did you do for that to work? | 11:23 |
| kunguz | Ursinha: actually I did nothing, it just shows the desktop in the second run. By the way, do you know how do I correct the display quality? | 11:29 |
| Ursinha | hmm | 11:29 |
| kunguz | Ursinha: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-omap3 but the quality stays the same | 11:30 |
| Ursinha | kunguz: I believe rsalveti is your guy :) | 11:30 |
| rsalveti | kunguz: what you mean by quality? | 11:31 |
| rsalveti | kunguz: are you using omap3? | 11:31 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: I mean the graphics does not seem like 16-bit or 24-bit, it is more like 8-bit screen | 11:31 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: I am using beagleboard | 11:31 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: it has omap3 | 11:31 |
| rsalveti | probably because the fb is using 16bpp | 11:32 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: how do I correct it? | 11:32 |
| rsalveti | kunguz: kernel cmd line | 11:32 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: what option should i add to correct it? | 11:32 |
| rsalveti | kunguz: if you check /boot/boot.script you'll see that's setting 16bpp by hand | 11:32 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: ok let me check | 11:33 |
| rsalveti | you should safely change to 32 I believe | 11:33 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: ok let me adjust it as you said | 11:33 |
| rsalveti | kunguz: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/BeagleEditBootscr | 11:35 |
| rsalveti | or just edit /boot/boot.script and then call flash-kernel | 11:35 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: thank you, I am adjusting as you said now. On my beagleboard usbs keep failing do you know any reason to that?, | 11:36 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: I changed it to 32 but the color palette stays the same inside the desktop | 11:44 |
| rsalveti | kunguz: can you paste me the output from 'fbset -i' and /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 11:45 |
| rsalveti | ? | 11:45 |
| rsalveti | kunguz: which usb devices are you using with beagle? | 11:46 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: http://sudrap.org/paste/text/15085/ here is the xorg.0.log | 11:47 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: I am using a wireless mouse, keyboard and a wifi dongle. | 11:48 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: I will paste the lsusb output | 11:48 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: and also the error | 11:48 |
| rsalveti | kunguz: probably beagle doesn't have enough power to power all your usb devices | 11:49 |
| rsalveti | wifi dongle usually consumes a lot of power | 11:49 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: better to use an external adapter then | 11:49 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: what about the display? | 11:50 |
| rsalveti | kunguz: mapfb.mode=dvi:1280x720MR-16@60 | 11:50 |
| rsalveti | this should be omapfb.mode=dvi:1280x720MR-32@60 | 11:50 |
| rsalveti | so you still need to change it | 11:50 |
| ppisati | ogra_: rsalveti: can you ping me when the kernel chat tralk starts? thanks | 11:50 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: this is inside the boot.script right_? | 11:50 |
| ppisati | s/tralk/taalk/ | 11:50 |
| ppisati | ohh... talk... | 11:50 |
| rsalveti | kunguz: yeah, but then you need to call 'flash-kernel' and reboot | 11:51 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: ok now I see, let me do that | 11:51 |
| ogra_ | ppisati, the "kernel chat talk" ? | 11:58 |
| kunguz | rsalveti: that's strange because there is a funny view in desktop although it is 32 bits still acts like a 8bit display | 11:58 |
| * ogra_ doesnt know what you refer to | 11:58 | |
| kunguz | rsalveti: [ 90.627] (--) omapfb(0): Depth 24, (==) framebuffer bpp 32 | 11:58 |

| Martyn | Quick question -- Jason Hobbs is working on the uboot menu patch | 16:09 |
| Martyn | I'm working on ext2/FAT boot w/ syslinux-like config file support | 16:09 |
| Martyn | is a syslinux-like file sufficient? I have a script that can parse grub boot files and turn them into syslinux config files | 16:10 |
| Martyn | That way, to upgrade the kernel and update the initrd, all that would have to be done is dropping the new initrd and kernel into .. say .. /boot, and then update a uboot.cfg file | 16:11 |
| Martyn | and a basic menu would be available on the serial port (and configurable options like timeout) | 16:11 |
