Meizirkki | hi | 10:35 |
---|---|---|
Meizirkki | What prevents one from using android kernel directly with ubuntu? | 10:36 |
Meizirkki | on a tablet, for example | 10:36 |
ogra_ | nothing .... but you need to change the configuration | 10:37 |
ogra_ | and it shouldnt be to old for some options the userspcae needs | 10:37 |
ogra_ | (udev or upstart require some settings that are only there from certain versions on) | 10:37 |
Meizirkki | so as long as the kernel source is available one could in theory boot ubuntu on any tablet? | 10:38 |
ogra_ | well ... theoretically | 10:38 |
ogra_ | android kernels usually have no support for consoles enabled ... if you are lucky the vendor included a driver but disabled it ... often there is no code at all for this ... | 10:39 |
Meizirkki | hmm | 10:39 |
ogra_ | the issue with android kernels is that they usually are heavily hacked to get driver support in ... but in a way that possibly breaks building the kernel with other configs | 10:40 |
ogra_ | so its really depending on how good the vendor implementation is or if its just a bad hack on top of a mainline kernel or so | 10:41 |
Meizirkki | okay | 10:41 |
ogra_ | and then there are indeed no xorg drivers for most of the tablets out there since android doesnt use X | 10:43 |
Meizirkki | Yup I see. | 10:44 |
Meizirkki | Will wayland work? | 10:44 |
ogra_ | dunno, mir will :) | 10:44 |
Meizirkki | (isn't it what ubuntu touch is looking forward to using) | 10:44 |
* Meizirkki googles mir | 10:44 | |
ogra_ | no, ubuntu touch will use Mir | 10:45 |
ogra_ | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mir/Spec | 10:45 |
ogra_ | its similar to wayland ... but different :) | 10:45 |
* Meizirkki gets a bunch of submarines and space ships googling mir | 10:45 | |
ogra_ | (there is an #ubuntu-mir channel) | 10:46 |
Meizirkki | Thanks ogra_ :) | 10:48 |

pinportal_ | hello, can I install Lubuntu in a CPU WM8650? | 20:34 |
pinportal_ | WM8650 = 600Mhz ARM926EJ-S processor | 20:36 |
ogra_ | nope, ubuntu (or lubuntu in that case) only supports ARMv7 and newer ... yours is a v5 | 20:37 |
ogra_ | (see channel topic) | 20:37 |
phillw | ogra_: thanks, I only know to send ARM questions here :) pinportal_ I have had a dig around, and it seems that debian sid should work, this is the link http://wm8650.net/index.php?newsid=444 | 20:54 |
darkfader | i think i ripped one of those out of a nas box, they had a "netbsd.bin" in their fw package | 20:58 |
darkfader | but i never got up my spirit to hack at it | 20:58 |
pinportal_ | so I can install on WM8650 tablet? | 21:02 |
k1l | pinportal_: no. no ubuntu | 21:06 |
pinportal_ | it is bad :( | 21:16 |
