| mach20x | I am experiencing a problem with my framebuffer, it appears with the desktop GUI for a portion of a second and then disappears leaving only a blinking CPU monitor behind that persists on the display even when I leave the Linux deploy app and traverse the android realm. | 17:18 |
|---|---|---|
| ogra_ | not sure what the "linux deploy app" is ... ever heard of it | 17:19 |
| ogra_ | *never | 17:19 |

| ogra_ | but you should probably talk to the people providing that thing | 17:19 |
| k1l | its a chroot thing | 17:21 |
| ogra_ | k1l, sure, but definitely not an ubuntu thing | 17:21 |
| mach20x | … hmm, I don't know how good and prompt support is for it. I could really use a bit of knowledge on how framebuffer/x server integrates with my machine via chroot. | 17:23 |
| k1l | there were some chroot apps which connected with vnc locally to the chroot running linuxes to simulate a desktop linux on the android devices. i tested it once then and it was "rubbish". | 17:24 |
| mach20x | I have seen forums, and none express this particular problem | 17:24 |
| ogra_ | well, on a native ubuntu install you would just use the xorg fbdev driver which would use /dev/fb0 or some such to get graphics on the screen | 17:25 |
| ogra_ | (unaccelerated) | 17:25 |
| mach20x | The vnc server its rubbish/laggy from what I hear from everyone. That is why I elected to the framebuffer for my deployment | 17:25 |
| mach20x | dev/fb0 is the driver I'm using and I am seeing feedback, but something its happening which is distorting it this way. | 17:28 |
| ogra_ | no, /dev/fb0 is the device, not the driver | 17:28 |
| mach20x | Is not it's * x2 | 17:28 |
| ogra_ | the driver would attach to the device | 17:28 |
| mach20x | Right | 17:30 |
| mach20x | I'm sorry the path on the Android device is /dev/graphics/fb0 | 17:32 |
| mach20x | The path that you are describing is what you would see in Ubuntu | 17:33 |
| mach20x | I tried ln -s /dev/graphics/fb0 /dev/fb0 without success | 17:37 |
| mach20x | Tried this as well cp -af /dev/graphics/fb0 $chroot_dir/dev/fb0 , perhaps its the reason I'm seeing anything at all, I don't know | 17:42 |
| ogra_ | well, whatever you do inside the chroot, it will depend on the permissions set by the host system ... | 17:44 |
| ogra_ | (and copying devices wont work) | 17:44 |
| mach20x | Ok, I have root permissions available, what would I have to change on the hosting device? | 17:46 |
| ogra_ | dunno | 17:47 |
| ogra_ | but if android restricts access to a group you are not in for example ... you need to have the same group with the same GID insode your chroot | 17:48 |
| ogra_ | (which gets awfully messy between android and ubuntu if you want all permissions right) | 17:48 |
| mach20x | right, I can imagine that. | 17:50 |
| mach20x | Though why would it be that I get any signal at all when I try to open Ubuntu, if I'm out their k outside THE GID | 17:53 |
| mach20x | If I'm outside the GID * | 17:54 |
| ogra_ | dunno, check your logs etc, fix whatever it complains about ... and in the end, talk to the people that created this tool | 17:55 |
| mach20x | Ok | 17:55 |
| ogra_ | there is really not much that can be done on the ubuntu side if you have a broken tool that created your setup | 17:55 |
| mach20x | I sent an email, so we'll see what comes of it | 18:09 |
| mach20x | I know that you are right, but I'm pretty sure I can ssh into the Ubuntu side to interface | 18:11 |
| mach20x | I still wouldn't know what would need to be done to effectively iron out this issue when I got there | 18:12 |
| mach20x | How to set up the dependencies and all that | 18:13 |
| ogra_ | well, but is not something we usually do in ubuntu ... we dont bastardize an install on top of some android system ... | 18:16 |
| mach20x | The only error I'm seeing is “ Stdin: is not a tty ” | 18:39 |
| mach20x | Do you think this will work if I put it into the custom script option? | 19:02 |
