Valduarehi guys got question, I got an mk802iiis device running ubuntu but the kernel apparently is configured to look in 3.0.8 dir in /lib/modules and the rootfs has 3.0.36 folder19:46
Valduarecan I do a symblink and reboot and all will work?19:46
Valduaretrying to get wifi found19:46
infinityErm, if the kernel is 3.0.8 and the modules you have are 3.0.36, you absolutely can't just symlink, no.19:47
infinityYou need modules that match your running kernel.19:47
infinityOr a kernel that matches that rootfs.19:47
infinityPick one. :P19:47
Valduarehmm19:47
Valduareoff to google heh19:47
infinityOr, off to the people who provided you the kernel and rootfs.19:48
infinitySince it wasn't us.19:48
Valduareaye thats what I'm trying to do19:50
Valduareany idea if ubuntu is planning to support all winner soc?19:50
Valduarethere's a lot of these little arm devices flooding the market19:50
ogra_probably once they start supporting devicetree19:51
ogra_(which they refuse to ... and which keeps them from getting their stuff into linux proper)19:52
infinityogra_: Not true, there's (finally) allwinner support landing upstream in a sane multiplatform way.19:54
ogra_oh !19:54
infinityThough, mostly too late for trusty's kernel, I believe.19:54
ogra_so they finally saw the light ?19:55
ogra_or is that a community effort19:55
infinityI think the light might have been forced on them, but yes.19:55
ogra_heh, cool19:55
infinityI've not gone patch hunting myself, but I heard promising things at Connect.19:55
ogra_i saw the deiscussions on the debian-arm ML ...19:55
Valduareinteresting19:56
ogra_but there it didnt look like they would get to some final conclusion19:56
ogra_and discussions with luke kenneth lehighton involved get a bit stressful over time19:56
infinityOh, he's a twit. :P19:57
ogra_definitely19:57
ValduareI'm in my hotel room right now got my mk device plugged into the hotel room tv trying to get its wifi up and running lol19:57
Valduarehmm what do I type to get dmesg to run in the terminal 15 seconds after I hit enter20:32
infinityValduare: sleep 15 && dmesg20:33
