| robclark | hmm, Depends: linux-ti-omap4 but it is not installable | 15:23 |
|---|---|---|
| robclark | any idea what makes apt-get think something can't be installed? | 15:23 |
| robclark | (this is filesystem started via debootstrap, and yes I've added ti ppa and apt-get update'd) | 15:23 |
| lilstevie | apt will think something is not installable if a condition in the depends cannot be met | 15:23 |
| robclark | right, but any way I can get more output to hint at what that condition might be? | 15:24 |
| robclark | I'm guessing something is missing because I started w/ debootstrap | 15:24 |
| lilstevie | pastie the error message? | 15:24 |
| robclark | not too much informative that I can see, but hang on | 15:24 |
| robclark | lilstevie, http://hastebin.com/gaqedakido.vhdl | 15:25 |
| robclark | oh, g-damn-it | 15:26 |
| robclark | I think debootstrap gave me an armel filesystem | 15:26 |
| lilstevie | apt-get install linux-ti-omap4 | 15:26 |
| lilstevie | see why linux-ti-omap4 is uninstallable | 15:26 |
| robclark | I think all stuff in ti ppa is armhf | 15:26 |
| lilstevie | but that will generally do it | 15:26 |
| robclark | yeah, debootstrap gave me armel.. ok.. time for take-2 | 15:27 |
| lilstevie | heh | 15:31 |
| lilstevie | well yeah, debootstrap is not used these days | 15:31 |
| robclark | well, issue was I was doing debootstrap from my oneric filesys.. I did really trust dist-update for the armel->armhf upgrade | 15:33 |
| robclark | but I didn't give --arch so I guess it just assumed armel | 15:34 |
| * robclark didn't even realize there was an armel precise | 15:34 | |
| robclark | (s/did/didn't/) | 15:34 |
| os_ | hi | 17:05 |
| os_ | can i install ubuntu on a nokia phone which use symbian | 17:06 |
| os_ | ? | 17:06 |
| os_ | any answers? | 17:12 |
| scientes | os_, must be armv7 | 17:14 |
| os_ | yeh it is | 17:14 |
| scientes | oh, symbian is a totally differn't OS | 17:15 |
| os_ | i know | 17:15 |
| scientes | so it would be a PITA | 17:15 |
| os_ | can i replace it with ubuntu? | 17:15 |
| scientes | well you would have to be able to modify the bootloader | 17:15 |
| scientes | and you would have to have hardware support in linux for all your devices | 17:16 |
| scientes | and chipset | 17:16 |
| scientes | and arm hardware support really isn't that good | 17:16 |
| os_ | :( | 17:16 |
| scientes | i mean there is good support for some hardware, but it isn't like x86, where one kernel you can just boot and see | 17:16 |
| scientes | there are like a bazillion differn't incompatible kernel configs, so you have to compile for your specific chipset | 17:17 |
| os_ | :( | 17:17 |
| os_ | ok | 17:17 |
| scientes | and anyways, ubuntu isn't really targeted at super-small devices and those type of input methods, although work is very appreciated | 17:17 |
| os_ | ok | 17:18 |
| os_ | thanks | 17:18 |
| scientes | if you want to work on arm, i recommend one of theses well-supported boards: http://www.linaro.org/engineering/getting-started/low-cost-development-boards/ | 17:18 |
| scientes | here is a netbook: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/TEGRA/AC100/ | 17:18 |
| os_ | ok | 17:19 |
| os_ | thanks | 17:19 |
| scientes | linux/ubuntu can be installed in a chroot on android | 17:19 |
| scientes | canonical is even selling it http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/android | 17:20 |
| scientes | so, hardware support is actually pretty good, sans graphics drivers, but its pretty complex--and the way arm works, chips arn't neccicarily compatible, its not like you have a standardized base like x86 | 17:21 |
| LetoThe2nd | probably saying "there is no one-click-installer" would have sufficed. or a plain "no" | 17:33 |
| LetoThe2nd | ;P | 17:33 |
| scientes | LetoThe2nd, indeed | 17:34 |
