[00:02] <pbuckley> btw, those on pandaboards and having trouble with quiet or muted audio, open alsamixer and goto DL1 Media and adjust the volume. You're welcome.
[00:18] <GrueMaster> pbuckley: I've uploaded the ucm fixes and our kernel guy was supposed to spin up a new kernel with the patches.  Should have a working system ootb next week.
[00:18] <GrueMaster> At least for audio out.  Haven't tested audio in yet.
[00:20] <pbuckley> nice, thats great news. Audio is a lot like oxygen, don't realize how much you use it till it's gone
[00:21] <pbuckley> also took your advice and attached a hard drive to my pandadesktop board
[00:21] <pbuckley> huge difference (duh)
[00:27] <GrueMaster> heh.
[00:47] <AlexLee> hello all , i encode h264 by using gstreamer in ubuntu 11.10 , but
[00:47] <AlexLee> can't  encode h264, is that miss some h264enc codec ?
[00:47] <AlexLee> also i have updated all the  PPA , the kernel is 3.1

[01:45] <krosswindz> GrueMaster: I got a third pl2303 cable and it worked
[01:45] <krosswindz> GrueMaster: third time is the charm
[01:46] <GrueMaster> Excellent!
[01:46] <krosswindz> GrueMaster: interesting it reports the same details when I run set serial, I am unable to set baud_base
[01:46] <krosswindz> GrueMaster: but it works
[01:46] <GrueMaster> Very odd.
[01:47] <krosswindz> yes really odd
[01:47] <krosswindz> not sure what the issue is with those cables
[01:49] <krosswindz> I guess that company just makes unusable cables
[01:50] <GrueMaster> Personally, I have had so many problems with them, mainly not being able to enumerate in a sane manner.  I have an old Atom system that I use as a serial console, and I ended up buying an 8-port pci serial card.  Of course, now I have 13 system consoles to monitor...
[01:51] <krosswindz> nice
[01:51] <GrueMaster> Not really.  My desk looks like a snake pit.
[01:51] <krosswindz> too many cables
[01:51] <krosswindz> wish there were wireless usb serial devices right :p
[01:51] <GrueMaster> And I just ran out of network ports on my 16 port switch.
[01:52] <krosswindz> you need a 96 port switch :p
[01:52] <krosswindz> just left scathing review for those broke cables
[01:52] <GrueMaster> heh.  I'd probably fill it next cycle (I bout this one last cycle when I only needed 9 ports).
[01:53] <krosswindz> I need to get a switch to I guess
[01:53] <krosswindz> I have been using three routers, two of them bridging
[01:54] <GrueMaster> I've never had a failing cable from Trendnet.  Just no way to differentiate between the 4 that I have.  And the 4 port usb-serial cable is just a cable with an integrated hub & 4 pl2303 chips.
[01:54] <krosswindz> Thats good
[01:54] <krosswindz> the last time comcast tech support came to my home he was counting the number computers I had
[01:54] <GrueMaster> All of my switches are 1Gb "dumb" switches (no programming of vlans, etc).
[01:54] <krosswindz> he is like you can only have 5 computers connected
[01:55] <GrueMaster> Yet another reason I don't do comcast.
[01:55] <krosswindz> i said dont worry 5 of them dont talk to the internet so its fine... he was like ooh ok
[01:55] <krosswindz> well my apartment gets either comcast or 128 kbps dial up
[01:55] <krosswindz> or whatever
[01:56] <krosswindz> its either comcast or dialup
[01:56] <krosswindz> no dsl
[01:56] <GrueMaster> I have 15 in my office alone, plus 2 in the study (wife & kids), a PS3, a Wii, an XBox, and two chumbies.
[01:56] <GrueMaster> I'm on DSL.
[01:57] <krosswindz> in my town they decided that cable was utility so every apartment complex can just have one hence monopoly
[01:57] <GrueMaster> Dedicated IP (only changed once since 1999).  No hassles.  They even alert me if they are seeing oddities on my link.
[01:57] <krosswindz> thats nice
[01:57] <krosswindz> who is your provider?
[01:57] <GrueMaster> Yea, they have done that all over the place.
[01:58] <GrueMaster> My phone line is Qwest/Century Link.  My ISP is dsl-only.net.
[01:58] <krosswindz> qwest is sitll alive ;)
[01:58] <krosswindz> still*
[01:59] <GrueMaster> I only have 3 choices for internet (I don't count dialup/satelite).  Comcast, Centurylink (they bought up Qwest apparently), and one local ISP that uses 802.11b.
[02:00] <GrueMaster> When I moved here in 2003, I already had dsl & dish network.  I called comcast and asked them to remove their cable from my house.  They said that it was illegal for me to not be connected.
[02:00] <krosswindz> lol
[02:00] <GrueMaster> I ended up cutting the cable and leaving it in a pile next to the pole across the street, then called up and reported a down cable.  They removed it very quickly.
[02:01] <krosswindz> nice job
[02:01] <krosswindz> comcast only sucks blood
[02:01] <krosswindz> they charge me $70 for a pathetic 8/2 connection
[02:01] <GrueMaster> On my street, 7 out of 8 houses have switched to dish or ditect tv in the last 6 months.
[02:01] <krosswindz> On a good day I get like 3-4 Mbps down
[02:02] <krosswindz> I wish I had a choice
[02:02] <GrueMaster> Better than I get, but I'm in the sticks.
[02:03] <GrueMaster> My line is rated at 7.5/1.5, but even after rewiring my house with cat5e, I still can't seem to get better than 5.5/768.
[02:03] <GrueMaster> I think it is the pipe between our town and Portland.
[02:03] <krosswindz> hmm
[02:03] <krosswindz> well at least you get 5.5 on an average
[02:04] <krosswindz> most days if get like 2-2.5
[02:04] <krosswindz> I dont care much for upload
[02:04] <GrueMaster> And I sometimes need it.  I mirror ports.ubuntu.com every 2 hours, and cdimage.ubuntu.com every 6 hours (only for arm stuff).
[02:05] <krosswindz> aah
[02:06] <GrueMaster> I bought a cheap rack cabinet ($150) for the basement.  It has 2 1U rack systems (mirror & firewall), plus a few older boxes and a test platform running remotely.
[02:07] <krosswindz> nice
[02:08] <GrueMaster> Between running my own computer consulting business for 6 years in the 90's and working in validation labs at Intel, I kind of got used to having a lot of equipment.
[02:09] <GrueMaster> Wife thinks I'm nuts.  I call it "Terminal Insanity".
[02:10] <krosswindz> having lot of computers is never wife approved :p
[02:10] <GrueMaster> Who said anything about asking permission?
[02:10] <GrueMaster> :P
[02:13] <krosswindz> its friday night
[02:13] <krosswindz> time to head out to the water hole :p
[02:14] <GrueMaster> It is????   Time flies when you don't know what you are doing.
[02:14] <krosswindz> have fun ;)
[02:14] <GrueMaster> You too.
[05:21] <krosswindz> I am trying to build mainline kernel
[05:21] <krosswindz> I was wondeirng if I have to pass anything specific to build armhf kernel
[05:21] <krosswindz> i am running precise
[07:26] <krosswindz> never mind i figured what needs to be done :p
[07:40] <micadeyeye> GrueMaster, none of the 11.10 releases (server and desktop) worked for me.
[07:41] <micadeyeye> My PB hangs here:

[14:54] <TonyWatertown> Hi.  I need some help cross-compiling ubuntu-arm (the 12.04 omap3 hard-float variant).  make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- ARCH=arm hiccuped at the Bulding modules stage.
[14:57] <TonyWatertown> Clarification: I want to cross-compile the ubuntu-arm source.
[14:58] <marvin24_DT> TonyWatertown: what's the error?
[14:59] <TonyWatertown> marvin24_DT:   MODPOST 2285 modules
[14:59] <TonyWatertown> ERROR: "__sync_fetch_and_and_4" [drivers/staging/line6/line6usb.ko] undefined!

[14:59] <TonyWatertown> WARNING: modpost: Found 4 section mismatch(es).
[14:59] <TonyWatertown> To see full details build your kernel with:
[14:59] <TonyWatertown> 'make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y'
[14:59] <TonyWatertown> make[1]: *** [__modpost] Error 1
[14:59] <TonyWatertown> make: *** [modules] Error 2
[15:00] <marvin24_DT> well, the mismatches should be non critical
[15:00] <marvin24_DT> the undefined symbol ...
[15:00] <marvin24_DT> you can try mrproper or disable the module
[15:01] <marvin24_DT> it is from staging anyway
[15:02] <TonyWatertown> marvin24_DT: how can i disable the module?  sorry for the newb q.
[15:03] <marvin24_DT> TonyWatertown: run  "make menuconfig" and find the driver in drivers staging
[15:03] <TonyWatertown> marvin24_DT:  Ok.  I'll go give it a shot.  Thanks for your help!
[16:26] <duga3> I know this is probably not the right channel, but does anybody know a channel with people experienced with ARM NEON developing?
[16:57] <TonyWatertown> marvin24_DT: Thanks for the help.  I was able to get the kernel cross-compiled.
