| ppisati | ogra_: what was your problem with panda's led? | 08:49 |
| === zyga-gone is now known as zyga | ||
| ppisati | ogra_: what was your problem with panda's led? | 10:01 |
| ogra_ | ppisati, they arent in the initrd we build for resizing, so if the screen is broken you dont really see that the board is doing something apart from the NIC LEDs | 10:02 |
| ppisati | ogra_: why they aren't in installer initrd? | 10:03 |
| ogra_ | (rootfs only gets mounted after the next reboot) | 10:03 |
| ogra_ | good question, i bet because the initramfs-tools scripts dont have any clue about led_gpio | 10:04 |
| ogra_ | but beyond that i dont understand why we dont build all driver for HW the board has into the kernel anyway | 10:05 |
| ogra_ | *drivers | 10:05 |
| ppisati | ogra_: actually that was compiled in in P | 10:05 |
| ogra_ | its a single purpose kernel, all pandas should have the same HW so we could save the boot time to load modules | 10:06 |
| ogra_ | i see led_gpio with lsmod ... | 10:06 |
| ppisati | yep | 10:06 |
| ogra_ | oh, in P | 10:06 |
| ppisati | updateconfigs turned it =m i guess | 10:07 |
| ogra_ | well, its not overly important, its just showing explicitly due to the monitor issue | 10:07 |
| ppisati | yeah | 10:07 |
| ogra_ | otherwise i wouldnt even have noticed | 10:07 |
| ppisati | anyway | 10:07 |
| ppisati | let's compile it in | 10:07 |
| ppisati | actually | 10:07 |
| ogra_ | yeah | 10:07 |
| ppisati | i would like to know how our initramfs are populated | 10:08 |
| ppisati | what if, for example, i want to add module xyz? | 10:08 |
| twb | ppisati: initramfs-tools has pretty extensive docs | 10:08 |
| twb | You add a build-time hook that says something like 'require_mod xyz'. I forget the exact details | 10:08 |
| ogra_ | take a look at /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions | 10:09 |
| ogra_ | that has the functions that loop over modules | 10:09 |
| ogra_ | and decide if they need to be pulled in or not | 10:09 |
| ogra_ | (with a lot of hardcoding in "auto_add_modules") | 10:10 |
| ogra_ | i assume we should add an auto_add_modules gpio function for gpio drivers | 10:11 |
| ogra_ | (initramfs-tools defaults to MODULES=most which in turn uses the auto_add_modules function) | 10:12 |
| twb | IIRC you can even just list extra modules you want in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules or so | 10:14 |
| ogra_ | twb, we are talking about the default behavior ... | 10:15 |
| ogra_ | the configs are just overrides | 10:15 |
| ogra_ | we usually never use them in official images | 10:15 |
| _william_ | hi all | 10:36 |
| _william_ | I would like to know if there exist a flashplayer (free or nonfree) for ARM architecture ? | 10:37 |
| ogra_ | yes, but only for companies that sign contracts with adobe (i.e. most android phones come with flash) | 10:41 |
| _william_ | ok thanks | 10:42 |
| ogra_ | there are free alternatives ... some of them work so so ... some are totally unusable ... (look for gnash or lightspark) | 10:42 |
| _william_ | i'm first going to ask my hardware manufacturer if they have a player they can ship with the terminal | 10:43 |

| marvin24 | [22:40:54] <janimo> marvin24, here is hangs after Freeing init memory: 336K | 12:01 |
| marvin24 | yes, there is a known problem with the console | 12:01 |
| marvin24 | but I don't know how to solve it | 12:01 |
| ogra_ | make plymouthd unexecutable | 12:02 |
| marvin24 | I mean solve it in the kernel | 12:02 |
| marvin24 | not back userspace hack | 12:02 |
| janimo | marvin24, so how come only mine does not boot if it is aknown problem? | 12:02 |
| * ogra_ hasnt opened a bug for that yet but plans to look into it before final release | 12:02 | |
| janimo | ogra_, so you have 3.1 booting, did you need some hack around it? | 12:02 |
| ogra_ | janimo, i forgot about telling you :) mine wouldnt boot either if i hadnt changed that months ago | 12:03 |
| marvin24 | dito | 12:03 |
| janimo | sigh, I could have used this info in the ml thread :) | 12:03 |
| ogra_ | sorry | 12:03 |
| janimo | I thought 3.1 was ready to upload from all points of view | 12:03 |
| janimo | np, dealing with these things sucks and prone to forgetting stuff :) | 12:03 |
| janimo | so there is no point trying to upload now since it would not boot on stock ubuntu | 12:04 |
| ogra_ | well, by all means upload it, i can work around in the ac100 installer for the time being | 12:04 |
| janimo | ah, so upload but not make it default yet ?Fine | 12:04 |
| ogra_ | i'm also not sure its necessarily a kernel issue, might actually be plymouth | 12:05 |
| janimo | ogra_, btw do you know about arm chroots via qemu-static on x86? Any way to tell it to use many CPUs for use in cross building? | 12:05 |
| ogra_ | i dont think anyone has debugged it deeply yet | 12:05 |
| janimo | I do such a build now but it seems the default is single CPU, and slooow kernel build | 12:05 |
| ogra_ | hmm, i never tried multiple build threads | 12:05 |
| marvin24 | ogra_: event the android device people (for android 4.0) see this problem | 12:06 |
| marvin24 | but android doesn't care | 12:06 |
| ogra_ | ah | 12:06 |
| janimo | marvin24, so making plymouthd executable is the workaround? | 12:07 |
| ogra_ | unexecutable ... | 12:08 |
| janimo | ah | 12:08 |
| marvin24 | I somehow did it different I think | 12:08 |
| marvin24 | dpkg -r plymouth also worked ... | 12:08 |
| ogra_ | i moved mine to .orig and linked the actual plymouthd to /dev/null | 12:08 |
| ogra_ | err | 12:08 |
| ogra_ | /bin/true, sorry | 12:08 |
| janimo | is there some command line arg to deactivate plymouth? | 12:10 |
| janimo | kernel cmdline that is | 12:11 |
| ogra_ | nope | 12:11 |
| ogra_ | you could try dropping splash but i think that still fires off plymouthd from mountall | 12:11 |
| ogra_ | once the rootfs is mounted | 12:11 |
| ogra_ | since plymouth acts as UI to mountall | 12:11 |
| janimo | yes, I boot without splash to see the error messages | 12:16 |

| angs | does anyone else have problem with ssh to the embedded board, most of the time ubuntu-arm refuses the ssh connection | 12:42 |
| lilstevie | janimo: ogra_ yeah I had to move plymouthd to .orig and link to /bin/true also for the transformer prime on 3.1 | 12:46 |
| lilstevie | nvidia broke something | 12:46 |
| janimo | lilstevie, thanks, good to have another confirmation | 12:47 |
| janimo | is this true for later kernels too? | 12:47 |
| lilstevie | janimo: 3.1 is the latest we have running on the tf201\ | 12:47 |
| lilstevie | tf201* | 12:48 |
| janimo | what about tf101 ? | 12:48 |
| janimo | so it is not a tegra2 only thing even | 12:48 |
| lilstevie | no it is a tegra thing in general | 12:49 |
| lilstevie | and we (androidroot) haven't applied the technique to update kernel yet to the tf101 | 12:50 |
| lilstevie | the only 3.1 ports are by people who have sketchy reps at best | 12:50 |

| angs | I have 5 embedded board that runs ubuntu, none of them gets IP when I plug the ethernet cable. Ethernet led is always red although the cable is plugged. I checked the cable and connection, it works. if I use another linux distribution (e.g. angstroms dist.), eth0 interface gets IP. what should I do? | 16:31 |
| GrueMaster | angs: First, what board (there are a few out there). second is this an Ubuntu kernel? | 16:32 |
| angs | I use beaglebone and loaded images according to the instruction here: http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu#Precise_12.04_armhf | 16:34 |
| angs | I can not connect to the board now, it should be 3.2.0 kernel | 16:34 |
| angs | I was connected one of them after hundred attempts, ubuntu was working fine | 16:36 |
| GrueMaster | Well, I know the beaglebone doesn't use an Ubuntu kernel, so you won't get much support here (sorry). Try asking on #beagle. | 16:38 |
| GrueMaster | The only other suggestion would be to see what ethtool reports when the cable is plugged in. | 16:39 |
| angs | #beagle people use angstroms dist which sucks and very problematic. | 16:40 |
| ogra_ | well, rcn-ee is often here, i guess its his kernel you use | 16:40 |
| angs | how can I access ethtool? | 16:40 |
| ogra_ | he should be able to help you with issues | 16:40 |
| angs | yes what is his nick? | 16:40 |
| angs | thanks ogra_ it is good to know | 16:40 |
| ogra_ | his nick is rcn-ee | 16:41 |
| ogra_ | he is usually also in #beagle though | 16:41 |
