lilsteviehmm, bug 1068994 has been a problem on the transformer prime too, but I thought it was related to a very poor kernel driver01:25

Hexxehlilstevie: oh hi, didn't notice you were in here01:27
lilstevieheh hey heathkid01:28
lilstevieer01:28
lilstevieHexxeh,01:28
lilsteviebad tab completion :(01:28
Hexxehdo you have a problem with touchscreen event needing inverting on tfp too?01:31
lilstevieno, that is fine, I just get the odd event that is 1/4-1/2 the screen off target01:34
lilsteviethe tfp has a very electrically noisy touchscreen01:35
Hexxehseems to be ektf3k driver for this01:41
Hexxehit's fine under Unity, but the cursor in X is totally inverted01:43
lilstevieodd01:53
Hexxehhehe, this is fun01:56
Hexxehgot chromium running01:56
Hexxehwith flash01:56
Hexxehand webgl01:56
Hexxeh:D01:56
Hexxeh720p youtube is a breeze01:56
Hexxehsound is broken and chrome is getting confused because X is reporting the display is 0mmx0mm, but this is nice progress for a few hours toying with it01:57
lilstevieheh nice01:57
lilstevieI want to start looking at chromium on the tf201 again, but this silly issue I am having is pushing me to breaking point with it01:58
Hexxehwell i've had some nice ideas inspired by this ubuntu stuff01:58
Hexxehto make it easier to run chromium on android tablets01:58
Hexxehi want to get one proof-of-concept rocking with the nexus 701:58
Hexxehbut i don't see why it couldn't be expanded to other tegra 3 based tabs01:59
rayfinwoah02:01
lilstevieheh cool02:02
rayfinthat's awesome man02:04
rayfintruly exciting02:04
Hexxehheh, what's pretty cool is that you can run this inside the ubuntu image too.02:04
rayfinvery cool02:05
rayfindo you run chromeos in a chroot environment then?02:10
rayfinjust curious how its done to allow both02:10
rayfinwoah i just realized your in my circles on G+ ...and old ass circle from the first few days there02:13
Hexxehit's not a chroot heh02:17
Hexxehi'm just copying enough binaries off into the ubuntu image to make it run02:17
rayfino02:18
Hexxehhttp://hexxeh.net/?p=32811789103:27
lilstevienice03:40
Hexxehi wonder if this works on the tegra3 based transformer03:44
Hexxehprobably does.03:44
Hexxehwith the right kernel/modules of course.03:44
lilsteviewhich graphics libs is that using?03:45
Hexxehsame ones as the ubuntu image released today03:49
Hexxehl4t stuff essentially03:49
lilsteviehm ok03:49

AaratHow do i install ubuntu-arm on raspberry pi ??05:44
lilstevieAarat, you don't look at the topic, it says try #rasbian05:45
Aaratyes.. but thats debian05:45
Aarati already have raspbian installed05:45
lilstevieAarat, you cannot install a recent version of ubuntu on the rpi05:45
Aaratany development version ??05:46
lilstevieno05:46
Aaratokay.. got it05:47
lilstevieAarat, the rpi uses an armv6 cpu, ubuntu has not run on armv6 for many versions now, currently it is compiled for armv7, so to make a version specifically for the rpi you would have to recompile the entire software repository05:47
AaratOkay.. where do i start ??05:48
lilsteviethat is a lot of effort05:49
AaratAh Okay05:49
Aaratis there any community working on it ?05:49

AaratOkay05:49
Aaratdoes the ubuntu work on beagle board ??05:50

ben1066How long should flashing rootfs take?13:00
ben1066Mine seems to be taking too long...13:02
lilstevieben1066, for?13:05
ben1066Nexus 7, sorry, should be more specific13:06
Hexxehtakes like 4 minutes here13:06
ben1066Hmm, would the fact I'm running the desktop Ubuntu in vmware workstation affect it?13:07
ben1066I dont run Ubuntu natively, I've dualbooted debian....but not ubuntu13:07
Hexxehpossibly13:07
ben1066the other steps run successfully13:07
Hexxehi didn't use the graphical tool personally, just downloaded the boot.img and rootfs.img and flashed them with fastboot13:07
lilsteviehow long has it been running13:07
ben1066i left it for about 10-15 minutes13:07
ben1066And then cancled, redownloading the images now to makle sure they're okay13:08
ben1066Hexxeh: do you have a link for the images?13:08
Hexxehopen the ubuntu-nexus7-installer tool, it's just a shell script13:08
HexxehURLs are in there13:08
Hexxehdon't have them to hand13:08
ben1066I cant find aformentioned script...13:11
Hexxehnano `which ubuntu-nexus7-installer`13:12
ben1066Thanks, also Hexxeh, what device is that you posted with Chromium OS on?13:16
Hexxehnexus 713:16
ben1066Heh, it was kinda hard to tell since the bezel looks black13:16
janimolilstevie, honestly I am not sure. it's behind the same Google EULA as the rest of the nexus firmware13:22
lilsteviejanimo, hmm, I found the one for the tf201 wifi firmware, well all bcm4329 wifi, but I have been struggling on the bluetooth firmware13:23
lilsteviejanimo, unfortunately we don't have a nexus type proprietary firmware download bundle :(13:24
janimolilstevie, I am not sure if they are the same chips/drivers/fw, but I know tf101 used a broadcom 4329 combo too13:26
janimoogra_, did some work on bluetooth but it's still not working well on the nexus13:27
janimoI just put the fw there as it is a prerequisite13:27
janimolilstevie, did you get the button1 stuck issue on the tf201 when using unity?13:28
lilsteviejanimo, yes13:28
janimowe suspected it was a unity/nux issue13:28
Hexxehlilstevie: what you looking for?13:28
Hexxehjanimo: fwiw i'm not seeing it with Chromium OS13:28
Hexxehusing your X server binaries13:28
janimoas the kernel driver and evdev see the taps just fine when looking with xinput or evtest13:28
Hexxehso it's not an X issue13:28
janimoHexxeh, we did not see it when using lubuntu either13:28
lilstevieHexxeh, bcm4329 bluetooth firmware licence13:28
janimohence suspecting nux/unity13:28
lilsteviejanimo, I get it with gnome too13:29
Hexxehhttps://android.googlesource.com/platform/hardware/broadcom/wlan/+/08db8f05975cef5fce3cb3302cf678fa1e92b8bf/bcm4329/firmware/LICENSE.TXT13:30
janimolilstevie, I just commented on that bug13:30
janimolilstevie, ok so not unity then13:30
lilstevieHexxeh, that is for wlan13:30
Hexxehisn't it the same firmware file?13:31
Hexxehalso i'd have thought it's a fairly safe assumption the license is the same13:31
lilstevienope13:31
lilsteviedifferent firmware package13:31
lilsteviejanimo, with bluetooth on the nexus, have you tried setting the MAC address13:32
Hexxehjanimo: any idea what the issue with audio is?13:32
janimolilstevie, never toyed with BT myself13:32
janimoHexxeh, no13:32
Hexxehi can't get that working at all in cros, works okay in ubuntu if i suspend/resume13:32
lilsteviecause I have had it working with varying success for multiple users13:32
lilsteviewhat audio codec is it using13:32
lilsteviert5631?13:33
Hexxehlet me check, one moment13:33
Hexxehi keep killing the battery on my n7 so it's off atm13:33
Hexxehrt564013:34
lilsteviehm13:34
ben1066So currently audio and bluetooth are non-functional? That's still pretty impressive13:44
Hexxehi think bluetooth is a trivial fix but i've not gotten around to trying yet13:45
Hexxehstill building my image recipe for automated builds13:45
ben1066Bluetooth appears to be somewhat functional in the build13:47
ben1066Its showing as on13:47
achiangjanimo: did you see the newest bug i posted?14:03
janimoachiang, no14:04
janimoI do not think I am subscribed to bug notifications14:04

ubot2Launchpad bug 1072320 in ubuntu-nexus7 "please consider adding OTG charging support to kernel" [High,New]14:04
janimoachiang, ok, will look into it14:04
janimoshall we make uploads to the public ppa for upgrades?14:04
achiangit's just an interesting one14:04
achiangjanimo: no, we need to use a staging area14:04
achiangfor testing14:04
janimooem-archive?14:04
Hexxehhow exactly did you build your rootfs.img? make_ext4fs?14:07
achiangyeah14:10
Hexxehcan't rebuild an image, oddly, error: do_inode_allocate_indirect: Failed to allocate 4101 blocks14:11
Hexxehlilstevie: you seen that error before?14:27
lilstevieno14:28
janimoHexxeh, we saw that error, I think it  is a known bug14:52
janimoour ext4 image only has a tarball _inside_ it, which is uncompressed by some initrd script14:52
Hexxehseems to be related to long filenames14:52
Hexxehnarrowed it down to a bunch of ssl certs in /etc/ssl/certs14:52
janimoif you have a regular rootfs with many inodes, make_extfs4 may not create it well14:53
janimoHexxeh, could be long filenames too, we did not investigate much14:53
Hexxehis that the reason you shipped a tarball?14:53
janimoI think in order to keep image size smaller14:53
janimothe flashed image size that is14:53
janimoogra_ will fill you in if there is more to it14:54

Hexxehone problem i've run into is that unless the device works to a point where i can connect the wifi, i can't get a shell to debug15:05
Hexxehis there some way of getting a shell over usb?15:05
MartynYes, if you have a usbCTC serial device, or other usb->serial device15:06
Martynyou could also go for USBset15:07
MartynUSBnet rather15:07

ben1066Fun fact, dont try and use html5 video in chromium on nexus 7 ubuntu17:28
ben1066It breaks the everything17:29
Hexxehworks for me17:35
ben1066I went to youtube17:39
ben1066Tried to view a video (html5 trial)17:39
ben1066Got wierd artifacting17:39
ben1066On another site it works, though really jerky17:41
Hexxehprobably using CPU for decode via ffmpeg17:45
Hexxehit won't be smooth unless it's hw accelerated via openmax17:46
ben1066I see17:46
ben1066Bluetooth works for me18:21
ben1066out of the box18:21
ben1066They pair anyway18:22
nikisben1066: did you mean "This kills the Nexus"? :p19:19
ben1066eh?19:19
nikisMeh, inside jokes aren't funny if you don't know about them.19:20
ben1066Oh really? :P19:20
nikisben1066: but yeah, video seems to go terrible currently :(19:20
ben1066Yeah, also tried --enable-openmax19:20
ben1066no change19:20
nikisFor example the sample video that comes with a default install... just plays audio on mine and stalls Totem until the video is over.19:21
ben1066:(19:21
nikisIs there a known workaround for the "mouse" button sticking yet?19:21
ben1066dont think so19:26
ben1066also just noticed my speaker is blown...that and the screen lift, seems I shall be returning my device19:27
ben1066Wonder how this'll go since you can't get the 8gb any more19:28
ben1066Maybe I'll get lucky :p19:29
nikisben1066: too much phat beats? :')19:32
ben1066strange though, only one channel blew >_>19:32
ben1066left19:32
ben1066Well, not strange19:32
ben1066But generally you get similar volume on both19:32
nikisProbably might want to go back to stock and run "fastboot oem lock" before you return it. Installing Ubuntu on it shouldn't cause hardware issues like that but sometimes shops whine.19:34
ben1066Yeah I will19:34
ben1066I got it from Play Store19:34
nikisAh.19:35
ben1066So yeah, this'll be interesting19:35
nikisI was wondering where you got the 8GB from :p19:35
ben1066Still got the packaging...somewhere19:35
nikisGot 16 here :)19:35
ben1066Well the 8GB isnt sold now apparently, I wonder if they'll have to give me a replacement 16 since I doubt they're gonna make just one 8GB :P unless they kept some just for returns19:35
nikisHope you don't have to pay extra for it.19:36
nikisWould be silly, so I doubt it.19:37
ben1066They can't make me, they are obliged to fix or replace it19:37
nikisOr give your money back...19:37
nikis:p19:37
ben1066Blegh19:37
nikisBut yeah, I guess you might score an upgrade if they truly have no more 8GB models.19:38
ben1066Well if they do that I'll just wait for the 16GB to drop when the 32GB is announced :P19:38
ben1066But yeah, already back to stock19:40
nikis:)19:40
nikisDon't forget to fastboot oem lock again then :)19:40
ben1066Yeah, I wont :)19:40
ben1066Also just got my windows 8 wmc key19:43
ben1066Im super good at blowing speakers mind, I blew a pair of headphones not long ago :p19:58
ben1066el' crapo anyway, but yeah19:58
ben1066But yeah, ubuntu on arm seems pretty decent even now20:20
