[05:46] is there a script i can use to fetch the abi files of the previously built kernel? [05:46] or do i need to manually download the debs myself? [06:06] aha, found it. === amitk is now known as amitk-lunch [09:24] * apw yawns [09:35] * cking offers apw a coffee [09:36] * smb thinks about another one [09:37] * apw drinks some tea, and reads scrolback on #ibm [09:38] 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 [09:39] apw, Because now it the next lts [09:39] you still maintining your fork of that ? [09:40] apw, No I never was [09:40] Oh you mean last last lts... if that was this lucid thing [09:40] * cking wonders how old non-pae cpus are [09:41] yeah weren't you building something for a via [09:41] cking, still found in x86 embedded options [09:41] cking, Like AMD's Geode [09:41] oh, the Geode, bleah [09:42] cking, Incidentally what I am currently running my firewall/router on [09:44] apw: because phillw leveled up his bugging skills. [09:45] 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] for people with prehistoric hardware [09:46] it is only like 3-4 options config wise for sure === amitk-lunch is now known as amitk [13:05] 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] it's a jump from eglibc 2.17 -> 2.18, compiled with gcc 4.8 instead of 4.7 [13:06] 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] arm64, powerpc, ppc64el are to follow. [13:14] xnox, i am sure we can, will see what i can make up [13:14] apw: cheers. i'll be holding it in proposed, until some positive results. [13:19] rbasak: ^ [13:21] 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. [13:57] apw: 3-4 options sounds simple enough, but to someone who is unfamiliar with building kernels, it's hardly easy. [13:58] and i'm having trouble digging through the packaging stuff anyways [13:58] 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] but it doesn't say which module is missing [13:58] * hyperair sighs [13:58] fml [13:59] 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 [14:00] hyperair, it should list them when it saysmissing modules, just above [14:00] read 4149 modules : new(0) missing(1) [14:01] MISS: /home/hyperair/src/debian/linux/nonpae/ubuntu-saucy/abi-tmp-3.11.0-15.23/tmp [14:01] this line? [14:01] MISS: yeah, though the crap on the end of it, seems wrong [14:01] oh yeah you're right [14:01] O_o [14:01] it shouldn't be /home/hyperair [14:02] how did that line creep into the .modules files? [14:02] =\ [14:04] apw: thanks [16:02] 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 [16:03] apw: oh, quite. [16:03] kernels are independant of the libc6 ;-) [16:04] sorry about that. In my world everything needs libc6 =) [16:04] heh yeah ... doh should have thought of that before going and trying to do ti :) [17:12] 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? [17:46] 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'? [18:46] why am i getting such a long delay at line 831 here: http://ur1.ca/g7wwe -> http://paste.fedoraproject.org/62960/38739154 [19:16] 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] sforshee, is it more on older devices or new devices? [19:16] android kernels will commonly suspend he display and touchscreen via this mechanism [19:17] it's mostly older devices, I belive it's more-or-less deprecated [19:17] but it's still common [19:17] as far as kernels that I've looked at go I think only the nexus 10 wasn't using it [19:19] and when coming out of suspend, some devices will exit suspend before the system is fully active, i presume [19:19] 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] the traditional suspend/resume mechanism resumes devices before thawing userspace tasks [19:20] but earlysuspend doesn't [19:21] sforshee, thanks, good info [20:44] 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 [20:45] oh, I setup a 100MB FAT partition and the rest Ext3 [20:49] TooLmaN: what CPU is in those? [20:50] I believe x86. [20:50] That's what the Live USB drive used [20:50] I haven't tried to replicate the test in a VM yet [20:52] TooLmaN: so, the live USB booted on the TC? [20:52] yes, I used it to do all the work. formatting, partitioning, copying files, etc. It runs fine off the live usb [20:53] I've used syslinux for years. Just not sure what I'm missing here [20:53] My goal is to get one TC working properly and image it to deploy to the other [20:53] others* [20:55] maybe check what possibly relevant drivers are loaded by the live USB and make sure those are available in initramfs? [20:57] although, I guess the error you see might be earlier, in syslinux? [20:58] also, drives might be numbered differently depending on which one you boot from in some BIOSes [20:59] oh, and make sure the boot partition is marked as such [21:00] IIRC I had to do that on some old WYSE TC [21:01] JanC_UEFI_test, I'll check a few. It's a syslinux-level error [21:02] the BIOS sees the internal drive as a hard drive [21:02] This is a wyse CL50 TC [21:02] it shipped with Suse but I had 2X ThinClientOS on it [21:03] wanting to make them simple web page display appliances running into screens around the plant [21:04] I can do this with RPi's, and I have a couple up, but I don't want them going to waste === JanC is now known as Guest65015 === JanC_ is now known as Guest61958 === JanC__ is now known as JanC === JanC is now known as Guest31114 === JanC__ is now known as JanC
