[03:34] <trelane> I installed Ubuntu on my beaglebone and for some reason it's running a PSP kernel.  I installed the OMAP kernel and can't quite figure out how to switch
[03:45] <scientes> trelane, PSP
[03:45] <scientes> ?
[03:45] <trelane> that's what rcn-ee called it, and it seems to lack most of the OMAP drivers.
[03:45] <trelane> I'm trying a standard OMAP kernel
[03:49] <trelane> ok, and that kernel doesn't boot at all :/
[03:57] <trelane> he's missing all the twl4030 drivers :/
[04:00] <XorA> PSP Processor Support Package
[04:00] <twb> Is beaglebone different from beagleboard?
[04:00] <XorA> bone doesnt have a twl4030
[04:00] <XorA> so I would be surprised if the drivers loaded
[04:01] <trelane> then how is the bone breaking out analog pins?
[04:02] <trelane> and what driver am I looking for?
[04:02] <XorA> read schematics, see where they are wired
[04:07] <trelane> looks like it's right off the AM3558
[04:15] <XorA> looks like there is a driver
[04:15] <XorA>  /sys/devices/platform/omap/tsc
[04:35] <trelane> XorA, which isn't propigated
[04:37] <trelane> :/sys/devices/platform/omap# ls -asl tsc
[04:37] <trelane> ls: cannot access tsc: No such file or directory
[04:38] <XorA> trelane: I suggest you take kernel sources + config from OE then
[04:40] <trelane> yep :(
[04:40] <XorA> good news, looks like source is direct from TI and defconfig is one simple file :-D
[04:41] <XorA> http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-ti/tree/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-ti33x-psp_3.2.bb
[11:12] <ayaka> Is there any program will use /dev/fb0 directly,not using fbcon( it need config_vt ,doesn't it)
[11:14] <LetoThe2nd> ayaka: you can pipe /dev/urandom or such into the fb if you like.
[11:15] <ayaka> no
[11:15] <ayaka> like X it need tty, but I can't set it in kernel
[11:16] <ayaka> so is there any way which avoid using tty, and using fb directly
[11:20]  * LetoThe2nd fails totally to see the problem.
[11:20] <LetoThe2nd> but i smell http://mywiki.wooledge.org/XyProblem
[11:48] <ayaka> no, it is tty problem, it is in kernel, once I set config_vt=y, i can't mount my,rootfs anymore
[11:48] <ayaka> my rootfs
[11:48] <ayaka> so I want to avoid tty
[12:59] <ayaka> LetoThe2nd thank you
[14:20] <hallenberg> Hi, where can I find the live-build configuration used to build the oneiric arm images (specifically armel+omap4)? I've search around but I'm only able to find the preinstalled images themselves, no information on how to recreate them.
[15:35] <parin> i am not able to install SGX drivers on ubuntu 12.04. can any one help?
[15:36] <parin> according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/OMAP/Graphics after installing 12.04 i get icon in tray to install PVR Driver
[15:36] <parin> before i install driver i check output of eglinfo command and it was showind software renderer
[15:37] <parin> same is happening after driver installation and reboot
[15:48] <TypoNAM> parin: click on the gear icon at the top side right side of the desktop and choose the update software one
[15:50] <TypoNAM> install all the updates then use that same gear icon to Shut Down... and restart
[15:52] <TypoNAM> after doing that then you should get the jockey dialog titled Additional Drivers window to be offered to install PowerVR SGX drivers after a minute of the desktop environment finished loading. If not then click on the gear icon yet again and select System Settings... click on Additional Drivers under Hardware category and now you should be able to install the PowerVR SGX drivers from there
[15:52] <TypoNAM> after its done scanning for hardware.
[15:58] <parin> @ TypoNAM thanks for your help
[15:59] <parin> i am installing all updates right now i will follow your instructions and see what happens
[16:08] <TypoNAM> parin:  :)
[16:32] <parin> @TypoNAM ok i got PVR SGX Driver installed but glxinfo command still shows Software Rasterizaer
[16:34] <parin> do i need to configure it? in When I clicked Additional Drivers in Hardware tab it says PowerVR is activated and currently in use
[16:34] <TypoNAM> parin: that is because PowerVR SGX is an OpenGL ES implementation, not OpenGL
[16:34] <TypoNAM> you want the es2gears and es2_info tools
[16:36] <TypoNAM> parin: install the mesa-utils-extra package for those two utilities
[16:36] <parin> alrite will do that
[16:40] <parin> TypoNAM ok i got that working. es2_info shows me GL_RENDERER: PowerVR SGX 540
[16:41] <TypoNAM> then it is working
[16:43] <parin> yes also before i installed it all applications (e.g Terminal) took long time to open (10 secs) now that time is reduced drastically (2 secs) is that because 3d acceleration is activated?
[16:44] <TypoNAM> most likely due to SD card latency
[16:44] <TypoNAM> I do have noticed a long delay when opening a new terminal either locally or via ssh remotely
[16:45] <parin> hmm...i am using class 4 16GB
[16:45] <TypoNAM> cause everytime you open a terminal several shell scripts are ran to prepare the terminal environment
[16:46] <parin> right...and that delay is huge when I open Qt Creator...i will try using class 6 and class 10 SD cards
[16:46] <parin> what are other storage options with panda? Can I use static hard drive?
[16:46] <TypoNAM> parin: also if you have any problems with unity such as no borders around windows and the control box with title bar is missing, click on the gear icon and select Log Out, at the login window click on the white ubuntu icon near your login name and select Ubuntu-2D, log back in, and now you're using the unity that doesn't falsely detect OpenGL and try to use it
[16:50] <parin> ya i notices that behavior when i installed PVR Driver first but didnt update the Ubuntu. as soon as I updated Ubuntu it started working ok
[16:51] <TypoNAM> ahh ok :)
[16:52] <parin> no I am really want to try NASA's worldwind 3D Glob program and see how well that works
[16:58] <TypoNAM> hehehe
[18:05] <GrueMaster> Guys, if you are looking to do some serious development work, I recommend using a usb-sata drive.  You will still need to have the boot partiion on the SD, but just change the boot script to point to the usb drive for root.  Speed improvement is significant.
[18:07] <GrueMaster> Another option is to do a netboot install to the usb drive, but if you already have a working image, you can use a program like gparted to copy/paste the rootfs from SD to the usb drive.
[18:07] <GrueMaster> TypoNAM: parin:  ^^^
[18:10] <parin> Hi GrueMaster thank you for your suggestion...i am surly try SATA
[18:11] <parin> but how about SSD? in my project I have limited size
[18:11] <parin> limites space to accommodate hard drive
[18:13] <TypoNAM> parin: he's talking about a USB attached drive, which are normally IDE or SATA internal drives in a case
[18:13] <TypoNAM> I'm sure a SSD incase of a USB enclosure casing would work just as well
[18:13] <TypoNAM> incase = inside
[18:14] <GrueMaster> TypoNAM: Yes, SSD in a usb enclosure will also work.
[18:15] <parin> hmmm..i will try both actually...i definitely need to improve read/write speed
[18:15] <parin> also trying xUbuntu-Desktop if it helps
[18:15] <GrueMaster> My suggestion is only for a development environment.  Once your app is running, you can package it and istall it on a test "execution" image that is SD only for deployment.
[18:16] <parin> yes but we do constant development and right now just concentrating on prototype product
[18:17] <parin> so right now its ok if we keep HD with panda
[18:25] <scientes> parin, didn't they announce that they are going to get you guys a calxeda this month?
[18:28] <jhobbs>  /oo/
[23:42] <TypoNAM> why is there no gdbserver for Ubuntu 12.04 armhf?
