[00:20] <jcrigby> infinity, ok will do, there have been many "cleanup 4.6" patch sets upstream so maybe things will just work once I rebase against v2011.12
[00:24] <infinity> jcrigby: Awesome.  Here's hoping.
=== doko_ is now known as doko
[04:11] <lilstevie> infinity: also with that universal kernel plan
[04:12] <lilstevie> infinity: http://trimslice.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=260 <-- seems archlinux have already started on such a project
[04:31] <lilstevie> infinity: although I do see the problem of all older devices being id'd as harmony, and honeycomb tablets being id'd as ventana
[04:32] <ceti331> how well does ubuntu work on android tablets genially these days
[04:32] <ceti331> can you run it on an android phone such as galaxy s2.. can it dual boot
[04:33] <lilstevie> I'm sure you could run it on the GS2, you probably wouldn't have acceleration, but it will boot; oh and samsungs bootloader is a bit of a pain so there wouldn't be dual boot
[04:33] <lilstevie> samsung use 1 kernel for both normal and recovery boots
[04:34] <lilstevie> where as on the asus transformer I use the boot/recovery split to wedge in dual boot
[04:40] <ceti331> whats
[04:41] <ceti331> what android devices are best for running ubuntu
[04:41] <ceti331> i don't have any so purchase decision could be influenced by existing ubuntu support
[04:47] <lilstevie> hard to say
[04:47] <lilstevie> what form factor would you be looking at
[04:47] <lilstevie> I mean overall the AC100 is the most feature complete port
[04:48] <ceti331> phone or tablet, not sure. I don't currently have a smartphone. i have an iPad - so an android phone is tempting
[04:48] <lilstevie> they actually have a decent team behind them, but that is really a netbook formfactor
[04:48] <lilstevie> really the AC100 is probably the only one I could suggest right now
[04:48] <Martyn> There is an upcoming Toshiba with an nvidia3 in it
[04:49] <Martyn> Also a cortex A9, but more memory and power
[04:49] <ceti331> that sounds cool
[04:49] <Martyn> nvidia tegra3 rather
[04:49] <Martyn> Yep, but it's due late Feb, early March
[04:49] <Martyn> the AC100 is, I'd agree, the most complete port
[04:49] <lilstevie> my port for the TF101 is really incomplete, and there is the problem that new devices don't have nvflash access to run the installer
[04:49] <Martyn> I'd avoid the Genesi MX .. it's got the least support right now
[04:50] <ceti331> i guess the ideal for me would be something like the asus transformer
[04:51] <ceti331> i like the idea of that a lot
[04:51] <lilstevie> ceti331: the tf101 is amazing
[04:51] <lilstevie> but frankly the port isn't quite there yet :)
[04:53] <Martyn> lilstevie: Where can I get the tf101?  I've had a hell of a time finding one
[04:54] <Martyn> (plenty on Amazon, but for higher-than-I'd-like prices)
[04:54] <Martyn> and do they come with the keyboard?  Or do you have to buy them separately?
[04:57] <lilstevie> Martyn: well David Barth got mine for me, that was sans keyboard; but they do come with the keyboard if you get the 32GB vers, there is also a 16GB vers that comes with keyboard, but I have not seen it anywhere
[04:57] <lilstevie> Martyn: if you are in the US I hear best buy have them
[04:57] <lilstevie> and with a good price at the moment
[04:58] <steev_> Martyn: least support how?
[04:58] <lilstevie> TF101-A2 /B2 come with the dock, TF101-A1/B1 are sans dock
[05:28] <Martyn> steev_ : Genesei is always behind the main release by a whole release
[05:28] <Martyn> so they are -just- working on natty
[05:28] <Martyn> and Oneric is already out
[05:49] <steev_> not entirely true, but also not entirely our fault... but he left so doesn't matter
[13:28] <maystar> Hello! Can anybody give me an advise which ubuntu version currently is the most stable and supports the basic features like wifi, video acceleration and bluetooth of the pandaboard? I would like to use it as a multimedia platform. I've tried oneiric, but it seems to be not stable yet and there were problems with wifi, bluetooth and video
[13:39] <lilstevie> maystar: if you are having problems with oneiric try natty
[13:54] <maystar> I've read in the omapedia wiki that there is no video acceleration support in natty "yet". Is this information outdatet?
[21:00] <maystar> Hey! Is anybody, who can explain me what's the difference between the linux-image-version-linaro-omap and the linux-image-version-linaro-lt-omap kernel version? They are both available in the linaro ppa, but I can't find any specific information about them
[21:14] <TheMuso> maystar: You probably want to ask in another 24 hours or so. For many devs its still the weekend, and they are likely not around at the moment.,
[21:19] <maystar> ok, thanks!
[21:23] <infinity> maystar: It has to do with how far they diverge from upstream.  -linaro- kernels use linaro's common head, and -linaro-lt- kernels have extra patches from the SoC landing teams.
[21:24] <infinity> maystar: The goal is for things to flow from landing teams to linaro common code to kernel.org upstream, but if you want to try the latest, greatest (and possibly broken) shiny that the landing teams are working on, that's what the -lt- kernels are for.
