| hyperair | is there a script i can use to fetch the abi files of the previously built kernel? | 05:46 |
|---|---|---|
| hyperair | or do i need to manually download the debs myself? | 05:46 |
| hyperair | aha, found it. | 06:06 |

| * apw yawns | 09:24 | |
| * cking offers apw a coffee | 09:35 | |
| * smb thinks about another one | 09:36 | |
| * apw drinks some tea, and reads scrolback on #ibm | 09:37 | |
| smb | apw needs danger sensitive sunglases | 09:38 |
| * apw idly wonders why so many people are suddenly want non-pae kernels, given its been like 4 releases since we supported them | 09:38 | |
| smb | apw, Because now it the next lts | 09:39 |
| apw | you still maintining your fork of that ? | 09:39 |
| smb | apw, No I never was | 09:40 |
| smb | Oh you mean last last lts... if that was this lucid thing | 09:40 |
| * cking wonders how old non-pae cpus are | 09:40 | |
| apw | yeah weren't you building something for a via | 09:41 |
| smb | cking, still found in x86 embedded options | 09:41 |
| smb | cking, Like AMD's Geode | 09:41 |
| cking | oh, the Geode, bleah | 09:41 |
| smb | cking, Incidentally what I am currently running my firewall/router on | 09:42 |
| hyperair | apw: because phillw leveled up his bugging skills. | 09:44 |
| hyperair | i told him to just build a nonpae flavour, stick it in a PPA somewhere, and roll it out in a custom ISO | 09:45 |
| hyperair | for people with prehistoric hardware | 09:45 |
| apw | it is only like 3-4 options config wise for sure | 09:46 |

| xnox | apw: hola! =) I have a fresh armhf-cross-toolchain-base at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/armhf-cross-toolchain-base/1.103 I've blocked in -proposed at the moment. Can it be tested at cross-compiling & booting kernels or some such? | 13:05 |
| xnox | it's a jump from eglibc 2.17 -> 2.18, compiled with gcc 4.8 instead of 4.7 | 13:05 |
| xnox | i'll compile a few things here and check that they are roughly sensible, but more testing would be nicer, considering that kernel/armhf folks probably rely on it more. | 13:06 |
| xnox | arm64, powerpc, ppc64el are to follow. | 13:06 |
| apw | xnox, i am sure we can, will see what i can make up | 13:14 |
| xnox | apw: cheers. i'll be holding it in proposed, until some positive results. | 13:14 |
| xnox | rbasak: ^ | 13:19 |
| rbasak | A cross-compile of the kernel is probably the best test I can think of. I'm not sure I can think of what else I can test that might be useful. | 13:21 |
| hyperair | apw: 3-4 options sounds simple enough, but to someone who is unfamiliar with building kernels, it's hardly easy. | 13:57 |
| hyperair | and i'm having trouble digging through the packaging stuff anyways | 13:58 |
| hyperair | https://launchpadlibrarian.net/160113188/buildlog_ubuntu-saucy-i386.linux_3.11.0-15.23%2Bhyper2_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz <-- so after over 5 hours, it tells me EE: Missing modules (start begging for mercy) | 13:58 |
| hyperair | but it doesn't say which module is missing | 13:58 |
| * hyperair sighs | 13:58 | |
| hyperair | fml | 13:58 |
| hyperair | i guess that means i now need to find 20GB of free space to test build this so i can do a proper post mortem | 13:59 |
| apw | hyperair, it should list them when it saysmissing modules, just above | 14:00 |
| hyperair | read 4149 modules : new(0) missing(1) | 14:00 |
| hyperair | MISS: /home/hyperair/src/debian/linux/nonpae/ubuntu-saucy/abi-tmp-3.11.0-15.23/tmp | 14:01 |
| hyperair | this line? | 14:01 |
| apw | MISS: yeah, though the crap on the end of it, seems wrong | 14:01 |
| hyperair | oh yeah you're right | 14:01 |
| hyperair | O_o | 14:01 |
| hyperair | it shouldn't be /home/hyperair | 14:01 |
| hyperair | how did that line creep into the .modules files? | 14:02 |
| hyperair | =\ | 14:02 |
| hyperair | apw: thanks | 14:04 |
| apw | xnox it occurs to me that i don't need this package to cross the kerenl, so i don't think it is a good test fo ryou | 16:02 |
| xnox | apw: oh, quite. | 16:03 |
| xnox | kernels are independant of the libc6 ;-) | 16:03 |
| xnox | sorry about that. In my world everything needs libc6 =) | 16:04 |
| apw | heh yeah ... doh should have thought of that before going and trying to do ti :) | 16:04 |
| imMute | so my kernel options include "console=ttyS0,115200n8" and even though I run "dmesg -n 7", KERN_DEBUG messages aren't printed to the console - I have to run dmesg to see them. This is not the case on my other Linux machine - what is different about Ubuntu? | 17:12 |
| kdub | sforshee, i came up with a patch that fixes/robustifies powerd against the problem i was seeing... just for my understanding though, what is 'earlysuspend'? | 17:46 |
| yates | why am i getting such a long delay at line 831 here: http://ur1.ca/g7wwe -> http://paste.fedoraproject.org/62960/38739154 | 18:46 |
| sforshee | kdub: earlysuspend is specific to android kernels. Essentially it's a state where some drivers have suspended their devices but the system hasn't fully suspended. | 19:16 |
| kdub | sforshee, is it more on older devices or new devices? | 19:16 |
| sforshee | android kernels will commonly suspend he display and touchscreen via this mechanism | 19:16 |
| sforshee | it's mostly older devices, I belive it's more-or-less deprecated | 19:17 |
| sforshee | but it's still common | 19:17 |
| sforshee | as far as kernels that I've looked at go I think only the nexus 10 wasn't using it | 19:17 |
| kdub | and when coming out of suspend, some devices will exit suspend before the system is fully active, i presume | 19:19 |
| sforshee | but as long as we wait on wait_for_fb_wake the display device _should_ be out of early suspend and ready to use | 19:19 |
| sforshee | the traditional suspend/resume mechanism resumes devices before thawing userspace tasks | 19:19 |
| sforshee | but earlysuspend doesn't | 19:20 |
| kdub | sforshee, thanks, good info | 19:21 |
| TooLmaN | Unique bootstrap question. I'm trying to install Ubuntu Core on a Wyse thin client with a 1GB flash drive inside. I have everything properly installed (rootfs, kernel files, etc) and syslinux'ed the drive. On boot I just get "boot error" like it isn't seeing the drive. I believe these TCs are setup as a SuperFloppy? Any tips on getting it to boot? Thanks | 20:44 |
| TooLmaN | oh, I setup a 100MB FAT partition and the rest Ext3 | 20:45 |
| JanC_UEFI_test | TooLmaN: what CPU is in those? | 20:49 |
| TooLmaN | I believe x86. | 20:50 |
| TooLmaN | That's what the Live USB drive used | 20:50 |
| TooLmaN | I haven't tried to replicate the test in a VM yet | 20:50 |
| JanC_UEFI_test | TooLmaN: so, the live USB booted on the TC? | 20:52 |
| TooLmaN | yes, I used it to do all the work. formatting, partitioning, copying files, etc. It runs fine off the live usb | 20:52 |
| TooLmaN | I've used syslinux for years. Just not sure what I'm missing here | 20:53 |
| TooLmaN | My goal is to get one TC working properly and image it to deploy to the other | 20:53 |
| TooLmaN | others* | 20:53 |
| JanC_UEFI_test | maybe check what possibly relevant drivers are loaded by the live USB and make sure those are available in initramfs? | 20:55 |
| JanC_UEFI_test | although, I guess the error you see might be earlier, in syslinux? | 20:57 |
| JanC_UEFI_test | also, drives might be numbered differently depending on which one you boot from in some BIOSes | 20:58 |
| JanC_UEFI_test | oh, and make sure the boot partition is marked as such | 20:59 |
| JanC_UEFI_test | IIRC I had to do that on some old WYSE TC | 21:00 |
| TooLmaN | JanC_UEFI_test, I'll check a few. It's a syslinux-level error | 21:01 |
| TooLmaN | the BIOS sees the internal drive as a hard drive | 21:02 |
| TooLmaN | This is a wyse CL50 TC | 21:02 |
| TooLmaN | it shipped with Suse but I had 2X ThinClientOS on it | 21:02 |
| TooLmaN | wanting to make them simple web page display appliances running into screens around the plant | 21:03 |
| TooLmaN | I can do this with RPi's, and I have a couple up, but I don't want them going to waste | 21:04 |
