shadeslayerogra: question, can we keep the image building stuff simple? like we did with the Nexus 10? where I just debootstrapped a base ubuntu rootfs, put that onto the data partition, compiled the kernel and packed that with the standard ubuntu initrd13:31
shadeslayer( for the Nexus 7 )13:31
shadeslayeronly with the Nexus 7, I preseed the chroot with https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-tegra3 and the desktop kernel13:31
shadeslayer( the desktop kernel being this one : http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-nexus7.git;a=summary _13:34
shadeslayer)13:34
ograwho is "we" ?13:35
ogrado you mean you create an image locally ?13:35
pbcwi have a BeagleBoard Black that I want to throw Ubuntu on.  I downloaded the ubuntu-13.04-console-armhf-2013-05-29.tar.xz, and the md5 comes out correct.  When I try to use 7-Zip (Windows) to extract the .xz file, it says it is not an archive.  Is the xz file actually image, and I should use that file when creating my SD card?13:39
shadeslayerogra: we = kubuntu team :)13:42
shadeslayerogra: yes13:42
shadeslayerfor now13:42
ograthis isnt an official ubuntu image, find the person who created it and ask him/her13:42
shadeslayerwhich image are you talking about :S13:43
pbcwthanks ogra13:44
shadeslayeroh that was for pbcw13:45
ograthat beaglebone thingit13:45
ograright13:45
shadeslayerroger13:45
ograwell, for your kubuntu image, just create a tarball, make sure abootimg is in it as well as the graphics driver13:45
ograi assume that should suffice13:45
shadeslayeruhhhh I'm not going through the whole reflash kernel method :P13:46
* ogra hasnt touched desktop images in ages ... have a look at the build scripts in livecd-rootfs 13:46
ograyou have to13:46
shadeslayerwhy?13:46
ograyou *need* to rebuild the initrd13:46
shadeslayerright, but *why*13:47
ograif you use a proper bootimg with tarball installer at least13:47
ograbecause it will not boot13:47
shadeslayercan't it work like we did with the Nexus 10?13:47
ograi have no idea what you did with the N1013:48
shadeslayercompile kernel , pack it with a standard ubuntu initrd, set rootfs=/dev/mmcppblk13:48
ograapart from hacking it to get X up13:48
ograsure, you can do that as a hack13:48
shadeslayerif I understand it correctly, the way it's done in the desktop image currently is to allow for kernel upgrades?13:49
shadeslayerso when there's a new kernel in /boot the device flashes itself again?13:50
ograno13:50
shadeslayeroh, so why is it done like that?13:50
ograanything that uses a trigger for initramfs will re-flash13:50
ograhas nothing to do with /boot13:50
shadeslayerI see13:51
ograbut with dpkg triggers13:51
shadeslayerroger13:51
shadeslayeranyway, I'll take the hacky way for now ;)13:53
shadeslayerogra: FWIW I still don't have X on then N10, because I can't find the right X11 exynos 5250 drivers :(13:53
shadeslayerI heard there's a simplefb driver in the kernel now, going to look at that once I'm through with the N713:54
ograwell, if your kernel works correct it should just start13:54
ograusing xfbdev13:54
ogra(which is the default on arm)13:54

ValDuarehey guys I'm trying to compile libavg for arm, I am getting some configure errors, the pkg-config script could not be found or is too old make sure it is in your PATH   any ideas?19:23
ValDuareI am not sure how to set the flags19:23
infinityValDuare: Did you try installing pkg-config?19:27
ValDuaredoing that now heh19:28
ValDuareretesting19:28
ValDuaregot a new error now19:29
infinityI'm sure you did.19:29
infinityOut of curiosity, what's wrong with the libavg in the archive?19:29
ValDuarepangoft219:30
ValDuareapt-cache search libavg shows nothing?19:30
infinitypython-libavg19:30
infinityAnd it's in universe, do you have only main enabled in your sources.list?19:31
ValDuarechecking19:31
ValDuarehah if that works I'm going to crack   spent all morning fulfilling dependancies to compile libavg haha19:32
infinityOn, wait.  What release are you running?  It was arch-restricted to x86-only in precise and quantal. :/19:32
infinityBuild on armhf in raring and saucy.19:33
infinitys/Build/Built/19:33
ValDuare12.10 picuntu on an mk80819:33
infinityAhh.  Why 12.10?19:34
infinityIf you upgrade to 13.04, you might be a bit happier. :)19:34
ValDuareI haven't tried updating yet19:34
ValDuaremain restricted universe multiverse is enabled in sources19:35
infinityYeah, but like I said, it's not built in quantal.19:35
infinityAnd this is why:19:35
infinity  * Change architecture to any19:35
infinity  * Make some x86 specific debug code conditional (replacing it with a19:35
infinity    deliberate segfault) (patch accepted upstream) (Closes: #683105)19:35
infinity^-- Before that change (which was made in raring), it wouldn't have worked on ARM.19:36
ValDuarek19:36
ValDuareok19:36
ValDuarei'll work on updating tonight19:36
ValDuareare you familiar with mk808 and picuntu?19:36
infinityNope.19:37
