[02:26] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/TEGRA/AC100 [02:26] is there something better than this? [02:26] i am very interested [02:26] i have 2 sheevaplugs but i need some armhf hardware [02:28] Define "better". [02:29] A PandaES will be faster, but also somewhat less portably self-contained. :P [02:29] well yeah [02:29] i like the form factor [02:29] but i would like 1GB ram [02:29] at least [02:30] The Pandas have a gig of RAM. [02:30] No small dev boards in the current generation will have more than a gig, as much as I wish they all did. [02:30] (And I'm not a TI shill or anything, we just happen to support the Panda quite well in Ubuntu) [02:31] cause support is mainlined... [02:31] If you're happy finding your kernels elsewhere (like Linaro hwpacks), the Snowball and Origen are also decent choices. [02:31] Panda support so isn't mainline... [02:31] We have a forked kernel tree for omap4. :/ [02:32] omap3 is mainline, and we do build beagle kernels from upstream source. [02:32] i have no problem compiling my own kernel, but i like it to be up to date with mainline [02:32] to some extent [02:32] * scientes builds his own sheeva kernels without initramfs [02:32] unstead of using debian's kernel---they don't support installing to the 512NAND flash [02:32] but i still run debian on it [02:35] Don't let me talk you out of an AC100, though. I'm using one right now, and I like it well enough. [02:35] It could use more community folk hacking on the kernel, though. [02:36] But the 512MB of RAM is a bit of a bummer. [02:36] what is lacking on it hardware support wise? [02:36] UEFI FOR ARM!!!! [02:36] WTF!!! [02:36] Everything more or less works (except some sound issues). [02:37] uEFI is a piece of shit [02:40] so you are using usb gadget mode to boot the pandas? [02:43] Hrm? [02:43] As in, pushing via USB from another host? No. My Pandas boot uBoot from SD, and chain to a USB HDD from there. [02:44] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRWpuJRrTn4&feature=relmfu [02:44] he says they boot from usb [02:44] with some magic [02:44] They boot from several different directions, in weird ways. [02:45] But uBoot on an SD card is the most familiar way for most people. [02:45] i use uboot and NAND flash for the sheevaplug [02:45] with ubifs [02:45] the ubifs device enumeration is a bit wierd [05:59] scientes: The arm server workload test framework uses usb-boot to reimage systems, then SD to boot into a usb drive. The tools should be in a bzr tree soon. === Guest46138 is now known as Termana [14:41] GrueMaster, mongodb/arm is in Precise, I did not test it much besides checking it actually works. In case you need it for some testing setups [14:42] janimo: Let the server workload team know [14:42] in #serer ? [14:42] my keboard eats the letter '' [14:42] or eilt? [14:43] In #eilt [14:44] * ogra_ still wonders who came up with that super silly name [14:44] eilt in german means "in a hurry" ... [17:37] infinity, there's a new armadaxp kernel in NEW :D [17:37] janimo: Did you take over development of that kernel? [17:38] GrueMaster, no, but I may be doing SRU's for it though later [17:38] currently just sponsroing uploads for Ike Pahnc [17:38] Ah [17:38] so he can get enough karma to get PPU rights [19:05] ogra_: hi. do you still have the Blaze board? [19:06] you meanm the red elephant phone or the tablet ? [19:06] (i still have both) [19:08] the red one. [19:08] do you think you could ship it back? [19:09] hmm, sure [19:10] do you remember which CPU was on it? e.g. which 4430 revision? [19:10] it might be written on it... i am not sure. [19:10] pre something [19:10] it was a really early one [19:10] if i need it for Andy from linaro. [19:11] (and i'm not near^ the device to check a sticker) [19:11] if you can have it shipped to him directly, it's better ... [19:11] i'll have to check if that can fal under canonical shipments [19:11] *fall [19:11] ok. worst case i guess the shippment back to me should fall under it [19:12] if you need an email from me, asking to ship it to linaro instead of TI, let me know [19:12] right, i can talk to our shipment dept. on tuesday [19:12] ok. great! [19:12] i'll let you know if i need anything [19:13] sure [19:14] ndec: Would you like mine as well? If so, email me shipping instructions. [19:15] GrueMaster: eheh.. i didn't know you had one too! [19:15] do you know which silicon revision you have? [19:15] or do you know what is the last kernel that ever worked on it?. [19:15] by giving the board to andy, i want to make sure that the linaro kernel supports the blaze properly... [19:16] I have two daughterboards, and I think the one in the unit is an ES2.0 (I'd have to check). [19:16] ouch.. that is old... [19:16] the other one should be the same as mine [19:16] I know the other board is the early pre-release version. [19:16] pre 1.0 i think [19:16] or *just* 1.0 [19:16] but i really think it was pre [19:16] ok. but the blaze is stil red, not black, right?. [19:17] Yes. [19:17] i have more recent processor boards with recent silicon. [19:17] it's the board which is missing. [19:17] 2 minutes and I can tell you what revs I have. [19:17] hi janimo [19:17] GrueMaster: if you don't need it, then yes, I would be happy to get it back [19:18] janimo: I wonder if it is still possible to update our kernel [19:18] I have 3.0.27, wifi, zcache/zram and some sound updates [19:18] or is it too late for precise already? [19:21] ndec: Ok, I have the original cpu (same as ogra_), and the ES2 revision. The Blaze is w/o camera or PICO. But I would like to send it back to TI, otherwise it will go to our Lexington office. [19:23] ok. have it sent to me, then. [19:24] ndec: Can you email me an address? My ID at gmail. [19:24] gmail? [19:25] gmail.com [19:26] GrueMaster: can you PM it to me? [20:32] marvin24, should be doable [20:32] it's on the stable branch and well tested? [20:32] should I just include all of that? no large features that may be disruptive? === plars is now known as plars-away [21:34] janimo: well, most is update to 3.0.27 and a few wifi / zcache fixes [21:34] all picked from upstream [21:34] I ran it for some days now [21:35] maybe you can provide a test package first [21:35] marvin24, ok, if it is all in your stable branch I'll have a look :) [21:35] sure [21:35] janimo: I'll push it tomorrow [21:35] after I made sure I got everything form -exp [21:35] alright [21:35] thanks [21:35] np :)
