Can;t find it now... [13:36] only the older/more detailed: http://people.canonical.com/~cjwatson/cross/armhf/raring/ [13:37] wookey: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CrossBuilding/BuilddChroot perhaps? [13:37] ah yes - cheers. too much internet these days :-) [14:03] ogra_: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-tegra/+bug/1085266 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-tegra/+bug/1085266 btw [14:03] Launchpad bug 1085266 in nvidia-graphics-drivers-tegra (Ubuntu) "nvidia-graphics-driver-tegra needs developer package" [Undecided,New] [14:03] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-tegra/+bug/1085452 I mean [14:03] Launchpad bug 1085452 in nvidia-graphics-drivers-tegra (Ubuntu) "please provide an openmax package for tegra SoCs" [Undecided,New] [14:04] well, i have to update it once nvidia privides the driver for the new xorg anyway [14:04] feel free to assign to me [14:04] but i have to wait for the new drivers [14:04] (we're switching to ABI 14 soon afaik) [14:13] 14? this is one and a half year old! [14:13] 16r2 is current [14:13] or do you mean xorg abi [14:13] ah, must be [14:14] yeah [14:14] heh [14:41] hi everyone. [14:41] i was thinking of trying to rebuild the raring build to resize the image for my 32 GB tablet. [14:42] till now, i have found this: http://www.mattfischer.com/blog/?p=285 [14:42] but it says that the process has changed for 13.04 [14:42] could anyone help me with the changed process? [14:43] well, the process is more or less the same, but the 32gb image will not flash because it is too big [14:44] do you have some custom recovery installed on your n7? (if you don't know what that is, you don't have it) [14:44] ogra_: hi [14:45] achiang, any idea what we plan wrt the weekly n7 meetings ? [14:45] i was asked by a few people now if we stopped working on n7 because there are no status infos anymore :) [14:47] rigved, install android-fsutils, unpack the image with smig3img, loop mount it, copy the tarball to a temporary dir and use make_ext4fs with your preferred size to create a new rootfs image [14:47] ogra_: we should do them again [14:47] ogra_: i've just been maxed out lately [14:47] *simg2img [14:48] achiang, k, just wanted to know the plans, thx [14:50] Tassadar: no, i do not have any custom recovery installed (i do not know what that means ;) ) [14:50] okay, then do what ogra says :) [14:51] ogra_: ok. i am following your instructions now. [14:51] Tassadar, ogra_: thanks. will revert back with status. [15:57] hola, i have a beaglebone running ubuntu arm 12.04 and I'm getting an error trying to install or update packages via apt-get. followed some howto's on trying to resolve it to no avail [15:58] can you pastebin the error ? [15:58] sure 1 sec [16:00] ogra_, http://pastebin.com/i3cypqxY [16:03] sudo cp /var/backups/dpkg.status.0 /var/lib/dpkg/status [16:03] and trz again [16:03] *try [16:04] also check dmesg for filesystem errors etc, that database doesnt break on its own usually [16:05] ok [16:06] ogra_, same fail [16:07] hmm, did you take a look at /var/lib/dpkg/status ? [16:07] its a text file [16:16] ogra_, yea but it looks like a tab delimited file that i can't make sense of... [16:16] it look structured and ok...consistent...but i don't know what the values mean and their relevance [16:16] it should just be package descriptions plus their status [16:17] you can try moving the file out of the way for a test (and touch an empty one in place) [16:18] ogra_, ok i think I tried this in a how to, but let me try again following your instructions...i can't talk to a howto =) [16:18] heh [16:21] ogra_, hmm...update ran with no error or updates... [16:22] going to try and install some stuff...thanks for the help. i appreciate it. have a good day! === zz_chihchun is now known as chihchun [17:15] xnox, ogra_: back before the holidays, we were discussing how to preseed the install on nexus7. Any ideas on this? nothing I've tried so far has worked. [17:22] plars: well on the kde active blog, they use adb to change kernel command line. I wonder if we can abuse that for preseeding nexus7 [17:22] but I still didn't check if end-user oem-config can at all be preseeded or not. [17:23] xnox: I've slept since then, but I think I tried setting a few options that way without any luck [17:24] xnox: then I tried copying the image to the device before starting the first boot, and I also tried inserting it in the initrd. Neither worked for me so far but it's entirely possible that I'm just missing something [17:24] xnox: You had mentioned that you were going to check that, and I was wanting to get some confirmation that I wasn't trying something here that simply isn't possible [17:25] ah. that's what happened. [17:25] Ok. I have one more oem-config bug to check, I guess my next install will be oem-config. [17:45] ogra_: is ureadahead on arm affected by bug 1085766? [17:45] Launchpad bug 1085766 in ureadahead (Ubuntu) "/var/log/upstart/ureadahead.log contains garbage" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1085766 [18:26] Tassadar: ok. you are right. it seems that the 27G image is not being flashed. been waiting for too long. [18:29] what size is the image? like the .img file? [18:29] i was reading up on the multi-boot method. it involves a custom recovery. why did you ask me about it earlier? will i be able to flash, say a 13G image on to it using that method? [18:29] well, you can access the data partition from there, so you could just copy the root.tar.gz from USB drive to /data [18:29] Tassadar: 706M [18:29] yeah, that is a bit too much [18:36] Tassadar: ok [18:37] you wanna try to install it using the recovery? [18:38] i could try. has anyone tried it before? [18:38] did it work? [18:39] i would guess not, but well, it is just copying one file [18:39] you don't even have to install the recovery, just boot it using "fastboot boot" [18:40] is it a problem to install php5 on a beaglebone? [18:42] Tassadar: ok. please correct me if i got this wrong. install the 8G version manually; before booting into ubuntu the first time, boot into fastboot boot; copy the new root.tar.gz over to the /data partition; then boot into ubuntu. [18:44] well, you need to make the /data 27gb big, and you can't really do that without loosing data, so I would recomend flashing factory android image (that will also properly format /data to 27gb [18:44] ) [18:45] then wiping /data, and copying rootfs.tar.gz in there [18:46] (if your /data is not properly formated already, that is, I dunno what that failed fastboot did, maybe it did not do anything) [18:51] Tassadar: ok. i am trying that now. [18:51] so I'm trying to setup a webserver on a beaglebone. started by apt-get install php5, figured that would give me everything i needed or get me close. apt-get failed and recommended: apt-get -f install...which also failed. pastebin: http://pastebin.com/VxajDrkQ [18:52] any ideas on how to resolve? [18:52] did you do apt-get update? [18:53] i did [18:53] it says "E: Cannot get debconf version. Is debconf installed?", did you notice that? [18:54] checking [18:55] aptitude search debconf shows pi next to it. i means installed correct? i'm used to the gui on my laptop [18:56] I don't really know, but trying "apt-get install debconf" would surely do no harm [18:59] Tassadar, installing debconf is failing via apt-get and aptitude...here's the pastebin: http://pastebin.com/6PQYpYTu [19:01] it kinda looks like there is something broken in there, it looks kinda weird that "apt-utils", "dpkg" and "coreutils" are not installed yet [19:01] i think older versions are installed [19:01] and it's not updating [19:02] maybe I should backup the image and do a distribtion upgrade? [19:02] wait, your dpkg status file was broken, wasn't it? [19:02] I think so [19:02] how did you fix it? [19:02] I'm trying: aptitude -f install dpkg [19:03] it's not === Sv2 is now known as sv [19:04] it's failing on libc6 support and multiarch-support [19:05] I dunno, it to me it _looks_ like something is terribly messed up, if that status file is not correct, it _might_ be the cause [19:06] Tassadar, I moved the status and touched a new one because i was getting errors saying the status file could not be parsed [19:06] I was then able to do an apt-get update [19:06] I then later tried to install php5...and now I'm stuck [19:07] can you check what is in that status file? Like did it re-fill that file or is it just empty? [19:09] it repopulated [19:09] it's about 3600 bytes...whereas the backup one was over 400k [19:11] maybe it can't be just repopulated like that [19:13] maybe...but I was going on a suggestion from ogra_. it seemed to allow the apt-get update to work but I'm not able to install basic stuf like tzdata [19:13] I wish there was a repair all problems option.... [19:13] try to ls /var/backup, there might be another backup of dpkg.status [19:14] ok... 1 sec [19:15] there's a dkph.status.0 that's 435k like the other status file I backed up [19:16] Tassadar, I got these: /var/backups/dpkg.status.0 /var/backups/dpkg.status.1.gz /var/backups/dpkg.status.2.gz [19:16] well, try to use it, maybe that one is okay [19:16] ok [19:17] just copy that file to /var/lib/dpkg/status and run apt-get update? [19:17] no it's unable to be parsed [19:17] yeah [19:18] trying to regen the file [19:18] this is like tryign to fix a looping cpan failure... [19:29] yeah, dpkg/status is rather fragile :/ why did it break anyway? [19:31] like, isn't the sdcard corrupted or something? [19:31] Tassadar, it's been broken. I got an image installer for the beagle bone ...no love. I was told not enough ram to handle updates but i find that hard to believe. after going through the steps to resolve I seem better off but not funcitoning and don't know what to do [19:31] not sure the sd card is corrupt...possible but unlikely. it's a spare 32g I had in a phone [19:33] I don't really know anything about the beagleboard, somebody who does would probably be more helpful [19:33] appreciated. [19:34] thanks for the effort. when I go over to #beagle* they give me crap for installing ubuntu instead of solving the problem. so I'm at a loss for where to go.. [19:34] :D [19:39] Tassadar, what about downloading these packages and manually installing them. like debconf and perl-base [19:42] well, there is no harm in trying, but I am inclined to think that dpkg status file can't be even fixed [19:44] hmmm... [19:44] maybe I should backup this image and try a fresh 12.10 image. I had problems with that too...but maybe the status fix that I did in 12.04 will make it work. [19:45] yeah, flashing fresh image would probably be the best [19:49] yea I think I'm going to try that later... [19:49] thanks again [19:51] anyone here able to field a reloc question? [20:33] Jef91: you maintain BohdiLinux image for nexus 7, right? [20:34] Yes Sir Tassadar [20:36] Hey Jef91 do u have a package list for the enlightenment stuff you installed? I'd love to have this setup on top of ubuntu as the desktop environment and am wondering what else i need besides e17 [20:36] you realeased new one yesterday, will apt-get upgrade update my current installation? Or are these just images without proper repositories? [20:37] Tassadar: most of my stuff is just manually setup at the moment [20:37] Not in package form [20:37] So, tl/dr you need to reflash [20:37] okay, thanks [20:37] Ethernin: I have my own custom package set [20:38] Ubuntu E17 packages are old and awkward [20:38] Jef91, word, is the list on your website at all? [20:38] Ethernin: packages.bodhilinux.com has our repo list in html form [20:39] Lots of stuff on there. [20:41] btw, I was kinda surprised to see how fast e17 is on n7, both unity and plasma are struggling with 3D acceleration I guess :) [20:41] ha [20:41] Tassadar: e17 is fast on everything [20:41] modern desktops need to learn from it [20:42] and stop bloating their shit [20:42] aweomse thanks Jef91 [20:43] Ethernin: keep in mind the ARMHF packages there are built for Debian Wheezy [20:43] YMMV on other platforms [21:29] Hello! [21:30] I have succeeded in installing ubuntu on the UG802 [21:30] the only problem is.. [21:30] the belkin usb card it doesn't work [21:30] as in the F5D5050 [21:34] is it a known issue with linux for that card ? [21:35] no 5 people said the pegasus driver works just fine [21:35] but I cannto compile it successfully for arm [21:35] hmm [21:35] what is the F number on the card [21:35] iirc there are dif versions of that chip [21:36] can't remember if they all work [21:36] F5D5050 [21:37] but the pegasus driver wont compile [21:37] yep [21:38] what errors you getting [21:39] 1 second [21:40] http://paste.ubuntu.com/1518086/ [21:43] ubuntubhoy, PS: got all drivers to work via ⌨ (commandline) so far and got the video to work, it's now a working desktop :D [21:44] ubuntubhoy, except the belkin [21:44] That's not bad going in itself [21:44] can you help me through? can you compile the drivers for arm and send them to me? === Jef91 is now known as Jef91|Out [22:00] ubuntubhoy, Are you still there? [22:02] sorry mate was working [22:02] also, I am not able to compile anything here [22:02] oh [22:02] but I was having a look about to see if I could find the cause [22:02] nothing yet [22:02] sorry [22:24] Hello?
