Netham45I'm using a Tegra-2 powered tablet, anyone know if there are any better drivers for the GPU out there other than the one nvidia released in July?\05:57
twbl4t is the only driver I know about06:00
Netham45Yea, that's the one I'm using. It's not too feature-rich06:01
Netham45OpenGL seems to be crapping itself on it06:01
twbNetham45: you're not making me feel any better about buying one06:02
Netham45heh06:02
Netham45I like it so far, it seems to be working pretty good, I just can't get Minecraft to run on it. :(06:02
Netham45If you're getting one for Android, Android runs pretty well on it.06:03
twbFlipping kids and their minecraft06:30
Netham45lol06:33
twbGet off my lawn06:33
Netham45Nope.06:33

Netham45I was able to get 1.5GHz stable on android06:33

lilstevieminecraft will be a problem07:03
lilsteviethat is openGL and we only have EGL07:03
lilstevieplus you need to import the natives yourself07:03
phhbah qemu for natives07:04
phhand software GL07:04
phh:D07:04
lilstevieheh07:04
lilsteviebut more importantly, lack of proper java is the actual issue for minecraft07:04
lilstevienothing to do with the graphics drivers :p07:04

decoderhey :)11:22
decoderI followed the steps at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RootfsFromScratch to get an arm system running in qemu11:22
decoderI see the kernel booting11:22
decoderbut at some point it switches to blank screen11:23
decoderany idea?11:23
ogra_did you build something that uses X ?11:23
ogra_or is it supposed to just boot to a console ?11:24
decoderogra_: no X11:25
decoderi used11:25
decoder--seed build-essential,openssh-server11:26
decoderwith rootstock11:26
decoderis that insufficient?11:26
ogra_no, that should be fine for a console login11:26
decoderI think the last message im seeing is the one before it switches to init11:27
decoderthis "free memory" message11:27
decoderogra_: yep, "Freeing init memory: 152K" then it switches font, then it blanks the screen, cursor is blinking though11:31
decoderogra_: ive checked the syslog and there are some additional messages11:40
decoderhttp://pastebin.mozilla.org/136392011:40
ogra_hmm, do you use "splash" on your kernel commandline ?11:42
ogra_if so, drop it11:42
ogra_(also note that rootstock is largely unmaintained, if you try to build oneiric i dont think anyone tested that)11:43
decoderogra_: there's no splash on command line11:48
decoderand I would prefer any working version, not necessarily oneiric11:48
ogra_well, then that message is probably moot11:48
ogra_what HW do you use there ?11:48
decoderon the qemu cmdline?11:49
ogra_yes11:49
decoderI tried11:49
decoder-M versatilepb -cpu cortex-a811:49
decoderand -M versatilepb -cpu cortex-a911:49
decoderI also tried other boards to get more ram but I had even less success with those11:49
ogra_try vexpress and find a vexpress netboot kernel11:49
decoderok will try11:49
ogra_i dont think we still support versatile11:49
decoderI took what was on the wiki11:50
ogra_at least not the -a8 hack11:50
decoderogra_: any hint where to get the kernel from?11:51
ogra_there should be some netinstall image somewhere11:51
ogra_search for it, no idea where it is, we dont maintain it11:51
decoderokay11:52
lilstevieogra_: what ever happened to "splash11:52
lilstevie"11:52
decoderthanks for your help so far :)11:52
ogra_lilstevie, nothing, why do you ask ?11:52
decodermozilla appreciates :D11:52
lilstevieogra_: cause it used to work for me but doesn't anymore11:53
ogra_decoder, http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/oneiric/main/installer-armel/current/images/linaro-vexpress/netboot/11:53
ogra_lilstevie, ask slangasek, i think he fiddled with vesa vs fbdev during oneiric11:53
decoderogra_: thx! :)11:54
ogra_(us pacific TZ, so it might still be a while until he gets up)11:54
lilstevieogra_: ah ok11:54
ogra_i dont see issues on omap or ac100 here though11:54
ogra_(omap4 that is)11:55
lilstevieyeah, it works fine on the SGT11:56
lilsteviebut I need to push vol-down, or arrow key down on the keyboard for the splash to actually show11:56
decoderogra_: problems solved, you rock! :)11:57
ogra_:)11:57
ogra_lilstevie, sounds liek it shows up on the wrong tty then11:57
lilsteviehm11:58
ogra_i can switch back and forth during boot with alt left/right11:58
lilsteviehm11:59
ogra_so i woulod guess the key combo you use assembles atl-left or right12:02
lilsteviemaybe12:05
lilstevieI have the same function on all the android based devices I have run12:05
lilstevielike on the SGT7" back at 10.10 it did the same thing12:05
lilstevieand SGS i9k on 11.0412:05

MKOhello12:41
MKOI need some help with the SGX540 drivers installation on a Pandaboard (ARM OMAP4)12:41
MKOI can't get them from TI's PPA ; it says there are unresolved dependencies. In the end it says i need "dkms"12:41
MKOWhen I try to install it it tries to compiles stuff, but there are errors12:42
MKOit says it can't find "linux/config.h" (looks like he's trying to build with my kernel sources ??)12:42
MKO(is it normal it's so difficult to get/install those drivers?)12:42
MKOIf someone could help me, would be great :)12:42
ogra_the PPA packages require that you use the packaged kernel (and its headers)12:51
ogra_if you have a self built kernel you also need to build the drivers yourself, we dont support that12:51
Quintasanlilstevie: ping? :)12:52
lilstevieQuintasan: kinda pong12:53
Quintasanlilstevie: Oh I see. I've tried digging through the thread on XDA but I gave up halfway, is it possible to have Android + CWM + Ubuntu on Transformer?12:54
lilstevieno12:54
Quintasanlilstevie: I see, one more thing, why there is nothing in Tegra PPA?12:54
lilstevienot without using the update.zip method12:54
lilsteviethere is nothing in the Tegra PPA because it doesn't allow me to upload code for arm :(12:55
QuintasanAw damn12:55
lilstevieI am getting ready for an accelerated release though12:55
Quintasan_lilstevie: Uh sorry, I must have missed some lines from you, can we get accelerated gfx in transformer with Ubuntu12:57
Quintasan_?12:57
lilsteviewith what I am working on fixing up now yeah12:57
=== Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan
Quintasanlilstevie: Splendid. And how does the update.zip method works?12:58
* Quintasan successfuly deployed natty on Transfomer but he needs oneiric12:58
lilsteviethe update.zip method works by swapping kernels with CWM12:58
lilstevieI don't like it12:58
Quintasanlilstevie: Do you have any ideas for a workaround?12:59
lilstevienone12:59
QuintasanOh well, if only I knew how to make nvflashable backup of my current revolver install12:59
lilsteviewell nothing anywhere near usable12:59
Quintasanlilstevie: Okay then, any ETA to accelerated release?13:00
lilsteviewell,13:00
lilstevieI am fixing the kernel at the moment13:01
lilsteviejust got the kernel booting on the asus bootloader13:01
lilstevieneed to fix up a few things13:01
Quintasanlilstevie: Any ideas on creating a nvflash-compatible backup of what I currently have?13:03
lilsteviefollow the backup thread13:03
Quintasandurr, googled the wrong term and wondered why I get no results13:03
Quintasanlilstevie: Well then. Thanks. I'll backup and put Ubuntu back on :)13:05

decoderogra_: do you happen do know if the vexpress-a9 requires any special driver for the qemu storage to be recognized?15:12
decoderi cant seem to get it to find the root filesystem15:12
ogra_no idea, linaro maintains this kernel15:13
decoderah ok15:13
ogra_ask over there :)15:13
dmartdecoder: try pm215 on #linaro15:39
dtrgHello --- I gather the Ubuntu armhf build farm is now running. Does anyone know where the packages are going?15:45
ogra_infinity, ^^^15:45
infinitydtrg: You gather incorrectly, though it will be Soon(tm)15:57
dtrgIs there any good source of information on this sort of thing? Right now my only source of news is to bug people on IRC.15:59
decoderdmart: i already got help on #linaro, thanks!15:59
infinityNot really.  It's sort of a "wait until it shows up on the mirrors" thing.15:59
dtrgThat'll be ports.ubuntu.org?16:00
dmartdecoder: ok, cool (I wasn't watching)16:00
infinityYeah.16:00
dtrgAny ETA, or is it currently Unknown/Ask Again Later?16:00
decoderdmart: the problem was, with vexpress you can only use sd images16:00
decoderso I created an sd image as described on the linaro wiki16:00
infinitydtrg: I'm trying to avoid making promises, but "soon".16:00
decoderand that worked fine16:00
dtrgFairy nuff.16:00
slangasekogra_, lilstevie: the only change in oneiric is to use vesa as a fallback in the initramfs when no framebuffer is available; now, there are races here, so it may be we need a longer sleep on armel16:42
ogra_slangasek, well, it works fine on ac100, omap and omap4, note that lilstevie builds custom images for unsupported HW16:42
ogra_might even be a kernel option thats missing, not sure16:42
rcn-eehey guys, offhand do you remember the webaddress showing the active status of all the builds for armel.. (so i can watch the progress of armhf. .;) )16:46
ogra_rcn-ee, http://launchpad.net/builders ?16:48
rcn-eethanks ogra_ , but i have that one.. it was an non launchpad domain, (probally someone's personal) just showing which packages where failing/etc..16:49
ogra_oh, the ftbfs list you mean16:50
rcn-eeah, that sounds like it..16:50
ogra_qa.ubuntuwire.org/ftbfs/16:50
rcn-eeah perfect, thanks ogra_ bookmarked this time.. ;)16:50

tony_abadHi folks.  Can anyone point me to where I can find the kernel headers for Linux kernel build 3.0.4-x3?  I'm trying to compile a kernel module on a beagle board.19:32
infinitytony_abad: That doesn't sound like the versioning of any Ubuntu kernel.19:44
infinitytony_abad: So, you might want to ask the people you got the kernel image from?19:44
rbelemhi ogra_, rsalveti20:02
rbelemwhat is the default compiler for arm arm-linux-gnueabi or arm-linux-gnueabihf?20:03
