[11:04] <angs> I am trying to install a driver on ubuntu-desktop 12.04 on beagleboard-xm.  When I type "make", I get the following error http://pastebin.com/wRqt7X3R  that links to wrong directory. It links to ...arch/armv7l/Makefile directory instead of arch/arm/Makefile   .. This is the Makefile of the driver installation file (not .../arch/arm/Makefile directory) http://pastebin.com/s9TJ9uk2   . What line do I need to change in the makefile in order to fix t
[11:04] <angs> he link problem?
[11:04] <angs> or if I change the directory name ../arm/Makefile to /armv7l/Makefile by manual, would it cause further problems?

[14:00] <Chipaca> hi guys. Can anybody tell me why "runhaskell" is not in precise's ghc package on arm? and where i can find it?

[15:11] <steev> angs: ARCH=armv7l is wrong, the kernel only knows about arm
[15:20] <angs> steev: thank you, I solved it as you told by changing the make file
[15:20] <steev> angs: why not use the driver that's in the kernel (or compat-wireless)?
[15:26] <janimo> ogra_, has the daily image spinning stopped? I see latest is jun 29
[15:26] <ogra_> update-xapian-index errored out

[15:31] <angs> I am trying to use the usb doggle in the ad-hoc mode, I was able to connect to my access point without installing any extra package. However, I could not use it on the ad-hoc mode. I thought I should install the driver that came with the wifi dongle. But, I still cannot use it in the ad hoc mode. I am using these commands: http://pastebin.com/kTMkgCDx  I wonder if someone can tell me what is wrong with the settings or what can I do to use the wif
[15:31] <angs> i dongle in ad-hoc mode. the doggle is micronext mn-wd 152B that has RTL8188CUS chipset.
[15:33] <ogra_> not really an arm specific problem ... did you search the wiki for setting up ad-hoc ?
[15:34] <angs> I used this instruction https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Adhoc
[15:36] <angs> it is not arm-related, I also tried it on my laptop (ubuntu 12.04), it did not work. maybe there is someone that has experience in setting the dongle in ad-hoc mode could advise me what to do
[15:36]  * ogra_ never used ad-hoc, sorry, cant help
[15:37] <angs> thank you, I will try my chance on #beagle
[15:44] <steev> same, i've been using wireless cards since way back when, never bothered with ad-hoc

[15:59] <Chipaca> is python-matplotlib just not built for armhf?
[16:03] <ogra_> what source package would that be in ?
=== zyga is now known as zyga-afk
[16:28] <Chipaca> ogra_: matplotlib
[16:28] <Chipaca> i'm currently rebuilding ghc because it's missing some binaries on armhf, also
[16:28] <Chipaca> so can't really rebuild that too :)
[16:32] <janimo> Chipaca, did you find why ghc does not include runhaskell, oversight or intentional?
[16:32] <Chipaca> janimo: no
[16:32] <Chipaca> janimo: i'm just blindly rebuilding
[16:32] <Chipaca> janimo: because i couldn't really look into the packaging until tonight
[16:32] <Chipaca> so if it's done by tonight, i'll know more than if i didn't rebuild :)
[16:33] <janimo> Chipaca, unless it is an oversight the maintainers may have had a reason for it, ghc was not as well tested on ARM as elsewhere
[16:34] <Chipaca> janimo: i'm hoping it's an oversight, becaue it's not much use without that :)
[16:34] <janimo> Chipaca, precise or quantal?
[16:36] <Chipaca> janimo: precise
[16:55] <janimo> Chipaca, you may want to tweak mk/config.mk.in in the ghc package. It has ArchSupportsGHCi= which says which arch ghci and other commands are built on
[16:55] <janimo> runhaskell goes in only if there's an interpreter built
[16:55] <janimo> so you need to buld with armhf added there ans see if there's a bug
[16:55] <janimo> or just a historical ommission :)
[16:58] <Chipaca> janimo: awsome, thank you
[16:59] <janimo> Chipaca, hopefully it should just work and then a patch can be applied upstream :)
[17:00] <janimo> Chipaca, I just googled it an apparently ghci on arm is being worked on, so not yet

[17:06] <Chipaca> gah
[17:12] <Chipaca> janimo: so now i need to figure out how to build things which have runhaskell as the how-to-build
[17:12] <Chipaca> and i know just enough haskell to know that's not going to be fun
[17:12]  * Chipaca suddenly realized he knows haskellites at the university who own the same computer he has
[17:12]  * Chipaca runs to find them
[17:22] <Chipaca> huh
[17:22] <Chipaca> ghc --make
[17:24] <Chipaca> ogra_: any news re matplotlib?
[17:34] <scientes> where is the apckages.ubuntu.com for ports?
[17:34] <mythos> scientes, apt-get install apt-file
[17:35] <scientes> mythos, that is entirely differn't
[17:35] <mythos> different from what?
[17:35] <scientes> packages.ubuntu.com
[17:35] <mythos> ports.ubuntu.com is not indexed on packages.ubuntu.com. but you can use apt-file instead
[17:35] <scientes> oh shitty
[17:36] <scientes> even emdebian has a packages.debian.org alt
[17:36] <mythos> apt-file is a really neat tool. don't be shy, you are going to love it
[17:36] <scientes> i refuse to use it, cause i don't like extra databases
[17:36] <scientes> i use dpkg -S instead
[17:36] <scientes> and packages.debian.org/file:foo
[17:37] <scientes> also, rapt-file doesn't work
[17:37] <mythos> apt-file downloads only the contents.gz from your repo.
[17:38] <mythos> did you an apt-file update first?
[17:38] <mythos> then apt-file search <you name it>
[17:38] <scientes> the whole point of rapt-file is that it doesn't need a database
[17:38] <mythos> rapt-file?
[17:38] <scientes> its part of the apt-file package *remote*
[17:38] <mythos> yeah, ok
[17:39] <scientes> most of my uses of p.d.org etc are about getting up-to-date info
[17:39] <scientes> which is another reason apt-file just doesn't cut it
[17:39] <mythos> an apt-file update is so hard?
[17:39] <scientes> no, cause its backwards for what i'm doing
[17:40] <scientes> and it only works on the same arch and dist as your computer
[17:40] <mythos> ok... then you could set up an equivalent for packages.ubuntu.com for ports?
[17:40] <scientes> p.foo.bar works everwhere
[17:40] <mythos> no, that's nonsense
[17:40] <mythos> you can specifiy an sources.list and an cache folder
[17:40] <scientes> like, you can download a debian package from it, and use it on ubuntu , etc
[17:41] <scientes> oh for apt-file
[17:41] <mythos> don't know what you mean with "p.foo.bar works everywhere"
