| purezen | Hey guys..!! I am planning to get the Samsung ARM chromebook to run Ubuntu.. would that be worth doing..?? | 09:19 |
|---|---|---|
| purezen | Any limitations I might face...? | 09:19 |
| infinity | purezen: We don't officially (or unofficially) support it, and don't ship a kernel or installer for it, but several people are using it nonetheless. hrw is a good person to ask about it. | 10:14 |
| mvt007geek | well...i am downloaded an ubuntu-12.04-preinstalled-desktop-armhf+omap4 .then i used "dd" to write image on sdcard.after that i connected sdcard to pandaboard.my pandaboard has a monitor connected to it.but it seems monitor is not working.so i decided to test pandaboard to make sure it is working well or not and i downloaded "validation" from pandasite.then i used "dd" to wrote validation on pandaboard but it need a serial port to show me the results | 10:24 |
| mvt007geek | my serial port seems not work | 10:36 |
| infinity | mvt007geek: How did you write the image? | 10:40 |
| infinity | mvt007geek: "zcat ubuntu-whatever.img.gz | sudo dd of=/dev/sdb bs=4M" | 10:41 |
| mvt007geek | dd if=ubuntu-12.04-preinstalled-desktop-armel+omap4.img of=/dev/sdb | 10:41 |
| infinity | Oh, you unzipped it first? So you have a huge image sitting on your hard drive? | 10:42 |
| infinity | Also, that paste says armel, not armhf. | 10:42 |
| infinity | Which is kinda impossible, we had no armel images for 12.04 | 10:43 |
| mvt007geek | infinity: complete name is ubuntu-12.04-preinstalled-desktop-armhf+omap4 this is what i downloaded from site and also did checksum on it | 10:43 |
| infinity | That's not the complete name. Does it end in .img or .img.gz? | 10:44 |
| mvt007geek | yes. .img after zipping///////.img.gz befor zipping | 10:45 |
| infinity | Alright, there's no reason that shouldn't work, then. Works here just fine. | 10:45 |
| infinity | Using the HDMI port closest to the USB (not the other one). | 10:46 |
| mvt007geek | ok | 10:47 |
| mvt007geek | i did | 10:47 |
| mvt007geek | before | 10:47 |
| infinity | Anyhow, you really should plug something into the serial and have a look. | 10:47 |
| infinity | Even with our images, the early boot outputs to serial. | 10:48 |
| infinity | Since uBoot has no idea how to turn on the HDMI. | 10:48 |
| mvt007geek | which one i use? minicom?kermit? or picocom | 10:49 |
| mvt007geek | ? | 10:49 |
| infinity | I use screen. | 10:49 |
| infinity | screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 | 10:50 |
| mvt007geek | right now i installed it. | 10:50 |
| mvt007geek | and.. | 10:50 |
| mvt007geek | i use a usb to serial cable.one head connected to pc number1 another head to pc number2 | 10:52 |
| mvt007geek | infinity: screen is installed in pc1 | 10:52 |
| infinity | So do I. Hence why I said /dev/ttyUSB0 | 10:52 |
| mvt007geek | what command i should use for screen? | 10:53 |
| mvt007geek | i am so strange to screen | 10:53 |
| infinity | "screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200" | 10:54 |
| infinity | I feel like I might be repeating myself. | 10:54 |
| mvt007geek | well.i did that command.what is next step? | 10:55 |
| infinity | Plug in your Panda's power? :P | 10:56 |
| mvt007geek | now serial port is into pc number2 as i told.shoud i plug it out? | 10:57 |
| infinity | Err. I assumed "pc2" was your Panda... | 10:57 |
| infinity | Which would sort of make some sense if you intend to talk to the Panda via serial. | 10:57 |
| mvt007geek | no problem i will connect it to panda :) | 10:59 |
| mvt007geek | i did this.what is next step | 11:05 |
| mvt007geek | infinity: | 11:06 |
| infinity | ... | 11:07 |
| mvt007geek | infinity: screen shows me nothing. | 11:08 |
| mvt007geek | only white page | 11:08 |
| infinity | What did it say when you ran it? | 11:08 |
| mvt007geek | screen?? | 11:08 |
| mvt007geek | screen told nothing | 11:08 |
| infinity | Just an empty screen with a blinking cursor? | 11:08 |
| infinity | If so, that's fine. | 11:09 |
| infinity | So, make sure the SD card is in your Panda, pull the power, and plug the power back in. | 11:09 |
| infinity | You should seem some uBoot output. And it loading a kernel. | 11:09 |
| infinity | Etc. | 11:09 |
| mvt007geek | still nothing :( | 11:10 |
| infinity | Jigge the card, reseat it, power-cycle again. | 11:10 |
| infinity | If it doesn't even see uBoot, you've either written the image wrong or your card is bad, or your Panda is broken. | 11:11 |
| mvt007geek | no.it shows nothing. let's try pcnumber2 | 11:12 |
| mvt007geek | should i reboot that pc again? | 11:12 |
| infinity | Erm. | 11:12 |
| infinity | The Pandaboard, nor your PC. | 11:12 |
| infinity | s/nor/not/ | 11:12 |
| mvt007geek | what? | 11:13 |
| mvt007geek | infinity: u mean i don't connect pc2 to pc1? | 11:14 |
| purezen | infinity: Hey..!! thanks there..:) ok.. I particularly needed some headers to get it working and its current state.. | 11:25 |
| infinity | purezen: I'm not much help, since I don't own one and have thus not been paying attention but, like I said, hrw might be of help. | 11:25 |
| infinity | Or his blog may have pointers, if you dig. | 11:26 |
| infinity | http://marcin.juszkiewicz.com.pl/ | 11:26 |
| purezen | infinity: well.. thanks for that.. and right right now he doesnt look available.. shall I pm him..? | 11:27 |
| infinity | purezen: I'm not his secretary, I can't say. But sure, go nuts. :P | 11:28 |
| infinity | (Do read the Chromebook entries in his blog, though, he may answer some of your questions there) | 11:28 |
| kulve | how do you set the IP for usb0 for nexus7 with g_multi? | 11:29 |
| kulve | I might copy the same logic for my rootfs | 11:29 |
| purezen | infinity: ok.. :D :D .. will do that.. thanks again..:) | 11:31 |
| wookey | xnox: I tried using dh_autoreconf but it doesn't seem to work. just do "dh $@ --with-autoreconf", right? Doesn;t work for json-c for me | 12:01 |
| wookey | http://people.linaro.org/~wookey/buildd/raring-arm64/json-c_0.10-1.2-raring-arm64-20130120-1050.log | 12:02 |
| wookey | what am I doing wrong? | 12:02 |
| infinity | wookey: "--with autoreconf" | 12:04 |
| infinity | wookey: No dash. | 12:04 |
| infinity | wookey: "--wish-autoreconf" isn't a dh(1) option, so it'll just pass it down to all the sub-dh modules (as you see it doing). | 12:07 |
| infinity | wookey: "--with foo,bar,baz", however, means "include dh_foo, dh_bar, and dh_baz in the list of fancy things you do" | 12:08 |
| infinity | s/wish/with/ | 12:08 |
| wookey | aha. cheers | 12:09 |
| wookey | doh | 12:09 |
| mvt007geek | what is the best way to write an arm image (ubuntu) into sdcard? | 13:21 |
| mvt007geek | i used dd but serial port doesn't show it and it don't boot when i put sdcard in pandaboard. is there a good software to do that? | 13:22 |
| cobalt60 | mvt007geek welcome to the wonderful world of Linux on ARM | 14:20 |
| robclark | rsalveti (or anyone), I don't suppose there is a working gnome-shell somewhere for 12.10? http://pastie.org/pastes/5735819/text | 14:22 |
| Rjs | kulve: my solution to setting the IP is to have something like this in /etc/network/interfaces: auto usb0\niface usb0 inet static\n address 10.1.2.3\n netmask 255.255.255.0 | 14:48 |
| Rjs | (possibly also set gateway 10.1.2.1 if you want a default route through it - I mostly just use a http proxy on the same 10.1.2.x network so a default route is not needed) | 14:49 |
| Rjs | and I have something similar on the computer(s) that I connect the nexus7 to: iface usb0 inet static\n address 10.1.2.1\n netmask 255.255.255.0 | 14:52 |
| kulve | Rjs: thanks but my rootfs (Mer based) doesn't parse /etc/network/interfaces. I'm looking for e.g. udev rules that run a script when usb0 emerges | 14:54 |
| lilstevie | kulve: you should probably ask Mer support | 14:56 |
| Rjs | kulve: hmm, at least for me the interface seems to exist all the time after the gadget driver is loaded, regardless of whether the usb port is connected to something not - so maybe you might as well run the script just once after the driver is loaded | 14:58 |
| Rjs | (as long as you don't set a default gateway, it shouldn't be a problem that the extra interface is up even though it isn't connected to anything - except that the IP network you configure for it it should be private enough that it doesn't clash with anything you use elsewhere) | 15:00 |
| Rjs | at least I haven't had any problems with this kind of setup on my openmoko gta02 (whose g_ether gadget driver also behaves like that)... | 15:01 |
| kulve | basically I need to make sure that the script that loads the g_multi is run before the script that sets up the IP. That's why an udev based thing would have been nice | 15:02 |
| kulve | but nm, I'm sure I'll find something from the google :) | 15:03 |
| Rjs | ok :) I've not done much with udev so I'm not quite sure how it works... from a quick glance, I think that debian stable (which I happen to be using now) has a rule in /lib/udev/rules.d/80-drivers.rules to run /lib/udev/net.agent which is a shell script that runs ifup or ifdown as necessary | 15:09 |
| Rjs | maybe Mer has something similar, I don't know... | 15:09 |
| kulve | maybe this could work: "KERNEL=="usb0", ACTION=="add", RUN+="ifconfig usb0 192.168.2.15 up" | 15:09 |
| kulve | bbl | 15:09 |
| _Takashi_ | Hi, just flash the latest raring on a nexus7, the screen isnt't drawn correctely at all and it's stuck at system config, does anyone else had the same problem. Thanks in advance . | 16:12 |
| magart | Anyone here using Ubuntu on their Nexus 7? | 17:33 |
| Tassadar | magart: I think you can presume that at least one of 146 people on this channel does | 17:34 |
| Tassadar | :) | 17:34 |
| magart | ;)) I'm looking for a way to solve the touch problem. Basically whatever you touch, the OS then sticks to it so you can't switch between windows or click some buttons. | 17:36 |
| magart | Also it would be nice to know if there's a place where a changelog is kept so I know what was changed each day (because there is a new image every day). | 17:37 |
| Tassadar | well, the thing with touch is known and reported bug in X - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-nexus7/+bug/1068994 | 17:38 |
| ubot2 | Ubuntu bug 1068994 in ubuntu-nexus7 "button1 gets stuck after a while" [Critical,Confirmed] | 17:38 |
| magart | how can you enable meatcity on Nexus 7? | 17:56 |
| magart | I meant metacity* :) | 17:56 |
| cobalt60 | Metacity? How about IceWM-Lite? | 18:50 |
| cobalt60 | or OpenBox if you prefer GUI config tools | 18:51 |
| magart | Yea...whatever. How do you enable them? | 19:02 |
| Tassadar | just install them like on normal desktop ubuntu I would guess | 19:02 |
| robclark | anyone know what package /usr/bin/jockey-gtk is in? dpkg-query -L jocky-gtk only lists /usr/share/doc/... for me | 19:13 |
| robclark | (not sure if that is anything to do with why gnome-session --session=ubuntu doesn't work for me.. but that is one thing it complains about.. fwiw compiz itself does work) | 19:14 |
| robclark | oh, hm. nm, I think I see the issue.. | 19:37 |
