=== deffrag_ is now known as deffrag
janrinzelilstevie: you still here?08:46
lilsteviejanimo: not really09:46
janrinzelilstevie: lookslike there is no SYS V IPC in your kernel10:02
janrinzelilstevie: rebuilt a kernel but it does not boot. will retry with the defconfig from your sources10:03
lilsteviejanrinze: yeah, sysvipc is missing from the released kernel10:05
lilsteviebut the kernel on git has it10:05
janrinzelilstevie: apparently that is causing the XShm to fail..10:06
lilsteviealso, use the android ndk toolchain to build the kernel10:06
lilstevietegra is really really dodgy10:06
lilstevieand breaks easy10:06
lilstevie:p10:06
janrinzehuh android ndk toolchain? why?10:06
lilsteviebecause that is what works without errors10:07
janrinzedoes gcc from Ubuntu not build working kernels?10:07
lilstevieand what asus use10:07
lilsteviegcc from ubuntu "works"10:07
lilstevieI was using it10:07
lilsteviebut it causes more problems than its worth10:07
janrinzewhat kind of problems?10:07
lilsteviecompile errors galore10:08
janrinzeah during module build, right?10:08
lilstevieand in some cases non booting kernels10:08
lilstevienot only during module builds10:08
janrinzehmm.. that would be a serious issue.. does that mean Tegra is not fully ARM compatible?10:09
janrinzeor does it mean Tegra has bugs that need work-arounds?10:09
lilstevieno, just that it is fragile10:10
janrinzehmm.. weird. I have not had that problem with any other ARM platform before.10:11
lilstevieI have had it on hummingbird10:12
janrinzehummingbird, Samsung?10:12
lilstevieyes10:12
janrinzesame as Exynos?10:12
lilstevieit is older10:13
lilsteviethey call them exynos now10:13
janrinzeoh, ok because the Exynos (dual core A9) works fine here too..10:13
lilsteviebut the cpu that powers the original galaxy tab, and the galaxy s i900010:14
lilsteviethese are single core A8s10:14
janrinzehmm.. rebuilt a kernel but that one does not boot either..10:15
janrinzelilstevie: tf101-gnu-linux-defconfig is what i have used.. is that correct?10:16
janrinzelilstevie: i built the kernel natively on the TF101.10:17
lilstevieyeah probably an error there10:18
janrinzemost likely. But how do you 'see' the console output or the boot log ?10:19
lilstevieif you haven't seen it there isn't any10:19
janrinze:-(10:20
janrinzeso no way to figure out what goes wrong?10:20
lilstevieyou could enable the android ramconsole driver10:20
lilsteviewith that enabled it will be at /proc/last_kmsg10:20
janrinzehmm..10:21
janrinzeserial console over USB would be a lot more sensible ;-)10:21
janrinzelilstevie: do you use the latest version of your git repo? the initrd in the OLiFE download may be to blame..10:24
janrinzelilstevie: weird.. the original kernel won't boot either anymore now.10:30
lilsteviejanrinze: if you want serial console, ask asus for the pinout, I asked and got no response10:36
lilsteviealso are you flashing it with nvflash or blobs10:36
janrinzeI use OLiFE.. so i think nvflash10:36
lilstevieto primary or recovery boot10:37
janrinzerecovery i guess, the primary is Android10:37
lilsteviek10:38
lilstevieIDK then10:38
lilstevieshould be working10:38
janrinzei saw something about 'wiping' the disk.. perhaps i need to reinstall everything..10:40
lilstevie:/10:45
janrinzeok.. my bad, still was copying my own kernel to the device :/10:46
janrinzelinux has booted again..10:47
janrinzelilstevie: can you send me a working .config for your git kernel?10:49
janrinzelilstevie: apparently self-built kernels won't boot.. how do i get a kernel with SYS V IPC enabled?13:23
janrinzelilstevie: the compiler supplied with the Android-NDK is not able to compile your kernel. many errors like "arch/arm/mach-tegra/suspend-t2.c:75: error: pllx causes a section type conflict" and more conflicts13:45
marvin24_DTmust be an ancient kernel ...13:47
marvin24_DT3.1 already?13:47
marvin24_DT(sorry, just jumped in)13:47
=== scientes_ is now known as scientes
janrinze2lilstevie: i managed to build a working kernel :-)22:54
janrinze2unfortunately the file browser in unity does not allow to add custom file handlers to be configured22:55
janrinze2looks like 12.04 is a neutered version of Ubuntu22:56
janrinze2i had better get Debian running on this device.. Ubuntu has become a toy OS.. unity seems to be built for noobs that need to be kept away from configuring anything at all...22:58
micahgumm, isn't that nautilus?23:02
janrinze2nautilus on Debian is easy to reconfigure, on 12.04 however it seems to be stripped of all configuration possibilities23:07
janrinze2actually most stuff in unity seems to work counter intuitive23:08
micahgI would think that's more upstream decisions, are you trying the version in unstable or stable?23:08
janrinze2it probably is just me but i feel extremely restricted by unity23:08
janrinze2i use 12.04..23:09
janrinze2i have a program that is a raw file viewer. it needs to be associated to dng, pef, nef etc..23:10
janrinze2apparently there is no way to do that in ubuntu 12.0423:10
janrinze2micahg: do you know a work-around?23:11
micahgif you haven't tried Debian unstable or testing recently, I'm saying that it might have been upstream GNOME that restricted it, as for associating, does a ~/.mailcap file help?23:13
micahg#ubuntu might be able to help further23:13
janrinze2hmm.. the irc client just crashed23:15
=== panda is now known as Guest90701
mythostoday comes my pandaboard \o/23:51
mythoshmm... *will be delivered23:51
mythosso ^^"23:51
janrinze2at #ubuntu there is no help for changing file associations23:53
janrinze2quite frustrating23:53
mythosjanrinze2, so you say, there is no way to define to use e.g. mplayer for avis?23:55
mythoshmm... i'm quite tired... so my grammar is getting worse and worse23:56
janrinze2nope only select from the list that is presented23:59
