[01:25] <lilstevie> hmm, bug 1068994 has been a problem on the transformer prime too, but I thought it was related to a very poor kernel driver
[01:25] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 1068994 in ubuntu-nexus7 "button1 gets stuck after a while" [Critical,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1068994
[01:27] <Hexxeh> lilstevie: oh hi, didn't notice you were in here
[01:28] <lilstevie> heh hey heathkid
[01:28] <lilstevie> er
[01:28] <lilstevie> Hexxeh,
[01:28] <lilstevie> bad tab completion :(
[01:31] <Hexxeh> do you have a problem with touchscreen event needing inverting on tfp too?
[01:34] <lilstevie> no, that is fine, I just get the odd event that is 1/4-1/2 the screen off target
[01:35] <lilstevie> the tfp has a very electrically noisy touchscreen
[01:41] <Hexxeh> seems to be ektf3k driver for this
[01:43] <Hexxeh> it's fine under Unity, but the cursor in X is totally inverted
[01:53] <lilstevie> odd
[01:56] <Hexxeh> hehe, this is fun
[01:56] <Hexxeh> got chromium running
[01:56] <Hexxeh> with flash
[01:56] <Hexxeh> and webgl
[01:56] <Hexxeh> :D
[01:56] <Hexxeh> 720p youtube is a breeze
[01:57] <Hexxeh> sound 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 it
[01:57] <lilstevie> heh nice
[01:58] <lilstevie> I want to start looking at chromium on the tf201 again, but this silly issue I am having is pushing me to breaking point with it
[01:58] <Hexxeh> well i've had some nice ideas inspired by this ubuntu stuff
[01:58] <Hexxeh> to make it easier to run chromium on android tablets
[01:58] <Hexxeh> i want to get one proof-of-concept rocking with the nexus 7
[01:59] <Hexxeh> but i don't see why it couldn't be expanded to other tegra 3 based tabs
[02:01] <rayfin> woah
[02:02] <lilstevie> heh cool
[02:04] <rayfin> that's awesome man
[02:04] <rayfin> truly exciting
[02:04] <Hexxeh> heh, what's pretty cool is that you can run this inside the ubuntu image too.
[02:05] <rayfin> very cool
[02:10] <rayfin> do you run chromeos in a chroot environment then?
[02:10] <rayfin> just curious how its done to allow both
[02:13] <rayfin> woah i just realized your in my circles on G+ ...and old ass circle from the first few days there
[02:17] <Hexxeh> it's not a chroot heh
[02:17] <Hexxeh> i'm just copying enough binaries off into the ubuntu image to make it run
[02:18] <rayfin> o
[03:27] <Hexxeh> http://hexxeh.net/?p=328117891
[03:40] <lilstevie> nice
[03:44] <Hexxeh> i wonder if this works on the tegra3 based transformer
[03:44] <Hexxeh> probably does.
[03:44] <Hexxeh> with the right kernel/modules of course.
[03:45] <lilstevie> which graphics libs is that using?
[03:49] <Hexxeh> same ones as the ubuntu image released today
[03:49] <Hexxeh> l4t stuff essentially
[03:49] <lilstevie> hm ok
[03:49] <lilstevie> I don't have a nexus 7
[03:49] <lilstevie> is that 12.04 or 12.10
[03:49] <Hexxeh> 12.04
[03:50] <lilstevie> hm
[05:35] <lilstevie> ogra_, there are a few typos in your description for brcm-patchram-plus on the ppa :p brcm-patchram-plus-nexus7 Patchram untility for bordcom hybrid chipsets to enable bluetooth
[05:44] <Aarat> How do i install ubuntu-arm on raspberry pi ??
[05:45] <lilstevie> Aarat, you don't look at the topic, it says try #rasbian
[05:45] <Aarat> yes.. but thats debian
[05:45] <Aarat> i already have raspbian installed
[05:45] <lilstevie> Aarat, you cannot install a recent version of ubuntu on the rpi
[05:46] <Aarat> any development version ??
[05:46] <lilstevie> no
[05:47] <Aarat> okay.. got it
[05:47] <lilstevie> Aarat, 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 repository
[05:48] <Aarat> Okay.. where do i start ??
[05:49] <lilstevie> that is a lot of effort
[05:49] <Aarat> Ah Okay
[05:49] <Aarat> is there any community working on it ?
[05:49] <lilstevie> not that I am aware of
[05:49] <Aarat> Okay
[05:50] <Aarat> does the ubuntu work on beagle board ??
[05:50] <lilstevie> yes
[05:50] <lilstevie> that has an armv7 cpu
[05:50] <Aarat> thats great !!
[05:51] <satellit_Tr55> look at the Trimslice h250 it has Ubuntu loaded on it
[05:51] <lilstevie> I have the Trimslice pro
[05:51] <lilstevie> works well
[05:51] <Aarat> thats great !!
[05:52] <Aarat> I am working on a project which will have several push buttons running mapped commands with it
[05:52] <satellit_Tr55> nice - my main computer as it is low power   one thing get a 4 way powerd hub
[05:53] <lilstevie> satellit_Tr55, I mainly use mine for building packages
[05:53] <satellit_Tr55> h250 lets you change hard drives
[05:53] <Aarat> how bout connecting several hard drives on trimslice ??
[05:53] <Aarat> if i want to make copier
[05:54] <satellit_Tr55> use dd on esternal hd
[05:54] <satellit_Tr55> external
[05:54] <satellit_Tr55> usb
[05:54] <Aarat> true.. bout how much time it will take to image a 500 gb hard drive
[05:55] <Aarat> i have a rpi taking 2 hours to image 16 gb
[05:55] <satellit_Tr55> I use 64 Gb class 10 SD cards for backup
[05:55] <Aarat> on raspbian
[05:56]  * satellit_Tr55 back to bed   11 pm here nite...:  )
[06:12] <lilstevie> janimo, I noticed you packaged the firmware for the nexus 7, I was wondering about the licence for the bluetooth firmware
[06:12] <lilstevie> cause I have been looking for that for a while and never found it
[13:00] <ben1066> How long should flashing rootfs take?
[13:02] <ben1066> Mine seems to be taking too long...
[13:05] <lilstevie> ben1066, for?
[13:06] <ben1066> Nexus 7, sorry, should be more specific
[13:06] <Hexxeh> takes like 4 minutes here
[13:07] <ben1066> Hmm, would the fact I'm running the desktop Ubuntu in vmware workstation affect it?
[13:07] <ben1066> I dont run Ubuntu natively, I've dualbooted debian....but not ubuntu
[13:07] <Hexxeh> possibly
[13:07] <ben1066> the other steps run successfully
[13:07] <Hexxeh> i didn't use the graphical tool personally, just downloaded the boot.img and rootfs.img and flashed them with fastboot
[13:07] <lilstevie> how long has it been running
[13:07] <ben1066> i left it for about 10-15 minutes
[13:08] <ben1066> And then cancled, redownloading the images now to makle sure they're okay
[13:08] <ben1066> Hexxeh: do you have a link for the images?
[13:08] <Hexxeh> open the ubuntu-nexus7-installer tool, it's just a shell script
[13:08] <Hexxeh> URLs are in there
[13:08] <Hexxeh> don't have them to hand
[13:11] <ben1066> I cant find aformentioned script...
[13:12] <Hexxeh> nano `which ubuntu-nexus7-installer`
[13:16] <ben1066> Thanks, also Hexxeh, what device is that you posted with Chromium OS on?
[13:16] <Hexxeh> nexus 7
[13:16] <ben1066> Heh, it was kinda hard to tell since the bezel looks black
[13:22] <janimo> lilstevie, honestly I am not sure. it's behind the same Google EULA as the rest of the nexus firmware
[13:23] <lilstevie> janimo, hmm, I found the one for the tf201 wifi firmware, well all bcm4329 wifi, but I have been struggling on the bluetooth firmware
[13:24] <lilstevie> janimo, unfortunately we don't have a nexus type proprietary firmware download bundle :(
[13:26] <janimo> lilstevie, I am not sure if they are the same chips/drivers/fw, but I know tf101 used a broadcom 4329 combo too
[13:27] <janimo> ogra_, did some work on bluetooth but it's still not working well on the nexus
[13:27] <janimo> I just put the fw there as it is a prerequisite
[13:28] <janimo> lilstevie, did you get the button1 stuck issue on the tf201 when using unity?
[13:28] <lilstevie> janimo, yes
[13:28] <janimo> we suspected it was a unity/nux issue
[13:28] <Hexxeh> lilstevie: what you looking for?
[13:28] <Hexxeh> janimo: fwiw i'm not seeing it with Chromium OS
[13:28] <Hexxeh> using your X server binaries
[13:28] <janimo> as the kernel driver and evdev see the taps just fine when looking with xinput or evtest
[13:28] <Hexxeh> so it's not an X issue
[13:28] <janimo> Hexxeh, we did not see it when using lubuntu either
[13:28] <lilstevie> Hexxeh, bcm4329 bluetooth firmware licence
[13:28] <janimo> hence suspecting nux/unity
[13:29] <lilstevie> janimo, I get it with gnome too
[13:30] <Hexxeh> https://android.googlesource.com/platform/hardware/broadcom/wlan/+/08db8f05975cef5fce3cb3302cf678fa1e92b8bf/bcm4329/firmware/LICENSE.TXT
[13:30] <janimo> lilstevie, I just commented on that bug
[13:30] <janimo> lilstevie, ok so not unity then
[13:30] <lilstevie> Hexxeh, that is for wlan
[13:31] <Hexxeh> isn't it the same firmware file?
[13:31] <Hexxeh> also i'd have thought it's a fairly safe assumption the license is the same
[13:31] <lilstevie> nope
[13:31] <lilstevie> different firmware package
[13:32] <lilstevie> janimo, with bluetooth on the nexus, have you tried setting the MAC address
[13:32] <Hexxeh> janimo: any idea what the issue with audio is?
[13:32] <janimo> lilstevie, never toyed with BT myself
[13:32] <janimo> Hexxeh, no
[13:32] <Hexxeh> i can't get that working at all in cros, works okay in ubuntu if i suspend/resume
[13:32] <lilstevie> cause I have had it working with varying success for multiple users
[13:32] <lilstevie> what audio codec is it using
[13:33] <lilstevie> rt5631?
[13:33] <Hexxeh> let me check, one moment
[13:33] <Hexxeh> i keep killing the battery on my n7 so it's off atm
[13:34] <Hexxeh> rt5640
[13:34] <lilstevie> hm
[13:44] <ben1066> So currently audio and bluetooth are non-functional? That's still pretty impressive
[13:45] <Hexxeh> i think bluetooth is a trivial fix but i've not gotten around to trying yet
[13:45] <Hexxeh> still building my image recipe for automated builds
[13:47] <ben1066> Bluetooth appears to be somewhat functional in the build
[13:47] <ben1066> Its showing as on
[14:03] <achiang> janimo: did you see the newest bug i posted?
[14:04] <janimo> achiang, no
[14:04] <janimo> I do not think I am subscribed to bug notifications
[14:04] <achiang> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-nexus7/+bug/1072320
[14:04] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 1072320 in ubuntu-nexus7 "please consider adding OTG charging support to kernel" [High,New]
[14:04] <janimo> achiang, ok, will look into it
[14:04] <janimo> shall we make uploads to the public ppa for upgrades?
[14:04] <achiang> it's just an interesting one
[14:04] <achiang> janimo: no, we need to use a staging area
[14:04] <achiang> for testing
[14:04] <janimo> oem-archive?
[14:07] <Hexxeh> how exactly did you build your rootfs.img? make_ext4fs?
[14:10] <achiang> yeah
[14:11] <Hexxeh> can't rebuild an image, oddly, error: do_inode_allocate_indirect: Failed to allocate 4101 blocks
[14:27] <Hexxeh> lilstevie: you seen that error before?
[14:28] <lilstevie> no
[14:52] <janimo> Hexxeh, we saw that error, I think it  is a known bug
[14:52] <janimo> our ext4 image only has a tarball _inside_ it, which is uncompressed by some initrd script
[14:52] <Hexxeh> seems to be related to long filenames
[14:52] <Hexxeh> narrowed it down to a bunch of ssl certs in /etc/ssl/certs
[14:53] <janimo> if you have a regular rootfs with many inodes, make_extfs4 may not create it well
[14:53] <janimo> Hexxeh, could be long filenames too, we did not investigate much
[14:53] <Hexxeh> is that the reason you shipped a tarball?
[14:53] <janimo> I think in order to keep image size smaller
[14:53] <janimo> the flashed image size that is
[14:54] <janimo> ogra_ will fill you in if there is more to it
[15:05] <Hexxeh> one 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 debug
[15:05] <Hexxeh> is there some way of getting a shell over usb?
[15:06] <Martyn> Yes, if you have a usbCTC serial device, or other usb->serial device
[15:07] <Martyn> you could also go for USBset
[15:07] <Martyn> USBnet rather
[15:07] <Martyn> TCP over USB
[15:07] <Hexxeh> i don't have any kind of adaptors, waiting for my usb otg cable to arrive
[17:28] <ben1066> Fun fact, dont try and use html5 video in chromium on nexus 7 ubuntu
[17:29] <ben1066> It breaks the everything
[17:35] <Hexxeh> works for me
[17:39] <ben1066> I went to youtube
[17:39] <ben1066> Tried to view a video (html5 trial)
[17:39] <ben1066> Got wierd artifacting
[17:41] <ben1066> On another site it works, though really jerky
[17:45] <Hexxeh> probably using CPU for decode via ffmpeg
[17:46] <Hexxeh> it won't be smooth unless it's hw accelerated via openmax
[17:46] <ben1066> I see
[18:21] <ben1066> Bluetooth works for me
[18:21] <ben1066> out of the box
[18:22] <ben1066> They pair anyway
[19:19] <nikis> ben1066: did you mean "This kills the Nexus"? :p
[19:19] <ben1066> eh?
[19:20] <nikis> Meh, inside jokes aren't funny if you don't know about them.
[19:20] <ben1066> Oh really? :P
[19:20] <nikis> ben1066: but yeah, video seems to go terrible currently :(
[19:20] <ben1066> Yeah, also tried --enable-openmax
[19:20] <ben1066> no change
[19:21] <nikis> For 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] <nikis> Is there a known workaround for the "mouse" button sticking yet?
[19:26] <ben1066> dont think so
[19:27] <ben1066> also just noticed my speaker is blown...that and the screen lift, seems I shall be returning my device
[19:28] <ben1066> Wonder how this'll go since you can't get the 8gb any more
[19:29] <ben1066> Maybe I'll get lucky :p
[19:32] <nikis> ben1066: too much phat beats? :')
[19:32] <ben1066> strange though, only one channel blew >_>
[19:32] <ben1066> left
[19:32] <ben1066> Well, not strange
[19:32] <ben1066> But generally you get similar volume on both
[19:34] <nikis> Probably 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] <ben1066> Yeah I will
[19:34] <ben1066> I got it from Play Store
[19:35] <nikis> Ah.
[19:35] <ben1066> So yeah, this'll be interesting
[19:35] <nikis> I was wondering where you got the 8GB from :p
[19:35] <ben1066> Still got the packaging...somewhere
[19:35] <nikis> Got 16 here :)
[19:35] <ben1066> Well 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 returns
[19:36] <nikis> Hope you don't have to pay extra for it.
[19:37] <nikis> Would be silly, so I doubt it.
[19:37] <ben1066> They can't make me, they are obliged to fix or replace it
[19:37] <nikis> Or give your money back...
[19:37] <nikis> :p
[19:37] <ben1066> Blegh
[19:38] <nikis> But yeah, I guess you might score an upgrade if they truly have no more 8GB models.
[19:38] <ben1066> Well if they do that I'll just wait for the 16GB to drop when the 32GB is announced :P
[19:40] <ben1066> But yeah, already back to stock
[19:40] <nikis> :)
[19:40] <nikis> Don't forget to fastboot oem lock again then :)
[19:40] <ben1066> Yeah, I wont :)
[19:43] <ben1066> Also just got my windows 8 wmc key
[19:58] <ben1066> Im super good at blowing speakers mind, I blew a pair of headphones not long ago :p
[19:58] <ben1066> el' crapo anyway, but yeah
[20:20] <ben1066> But yeah, ubuntu on arm seems pretty decent even now
