| regum | is there any way to run gstreamer on ubuntu 14 arm? | 09:10 |
| ogra_ | sure | 09:20 |
| regum | how? I can't seem to find any packages for it | 09:21 |
| ogra_ | (not sure what you mean by 14... but indeed, the whole ubuntu archive is available for arm (some exotic languages are missing i think)) | 09:21 |
| regum | oh really? I tried apt-get install gstreamer | 09:22 |
| regum | and it didn't work | 09:22 |
| regum | do i have to download the sdk? | 09:24 |
| ogra_ | because no such package exists (doesnt on x86 either) ... try apt-cache search gstreamer to see the package names that match | 09:24 |
| regum | ok thanks ogra_ | 09:24 |
| regum | I'll try that when I get home | 09:24 |
| Langley | Help, how do I set boot parameters in Ubuntu MATE for the Raspberry Pi 2 | 12:13 |
| ogra_ | flexiondotorg, ^^^ | 12:15 |
| * ogra_ has no clue how the bootloader is set up on the mate images | 12:16 | |
| Langley | I think I found something... there's HDMI stuff configured in /boot/config.txt | 12:17 |
| ogra_ | if it just uses the binary blob for bootin, then yes, config.txt and cmdline.txt are the files | 12:18 |
| flexiondotorg | Langley, edit /boot/config.txt and/or /boot/cmdline.txt | 12:20 |
| flexiondotorg | ogra_, In Ubuntu MATE 15.04 the Raspberry Pi 2 image used a real kernel. | 12:20 |
| Langley | It didn't do any difference... I'll try some more | 12:20 |
| flexiondotorg | But for Ubuntu MATE 15.10 for Raspberry Pi 2 I'm using the "kernel" and firmware from the Raspberry Pi Foundation. | 12:21 |
| flexiondotorg | Langley, What is it your want to do? | 12:21 |
| flexiondotorg | ogra_, That came about because I went a Raspberry Jam at the weekend. | 12:22 |
| ogra_ | flexiondotorg, whats a "real kernel" ? :) | 12:22 |
| Langley | It's for a TV that doesn't report supported resolutions, so I want it to force 1920x1080 on startup | 12:22 |
| flexiondotorg | And discovered the Ubuntu MATE was being used quite extensively. | 12:22 |
| ogra_ | our official images use a real kernel too ;) | 12:22 |
| ogra_ | i guess you mean you dont chainload uboot to then load kernel and initrd :) | 12:22 |
| flexiondotorg | But the feedback was. Loved the Ubuntu archive. Loved MATE. But didn't like that it was different to Raspbian for hacking. | 12:22 |
| flexiondotorg | ogra_, So I'm making 15.10 more Raspbian like. | 12:23 |
| ogra_ | good luck with that | 12:23 |
| flexiondotorg | By real kernel I mean compiled from source, with meta packages for headers etc. | 12:23 |
| flexiondotorg | Not the blob from the foundation. | 12:23 |
| ogra_ | we use an archive kernel with headers and tools from the archive ;) | 12:24 |
| flexiondotorg | ogra_, It's all working and I've ported a heap of utilities, libraries and applications to Ubuntu 15.10. | 12:24 |
| ogra_ | not sure why one or the other would be more "real" | 12:24 |
| ogra_ | i guess you'll get problems getting the bootloader into the archive in some way that you can consume it in official image builds | 12:25 |
| flexiondotorg | ogra_, The Raspberry Pi community want to be able to use rpi-update to automatically grab the latest kernel and blobs. | 12:25 |
| === chihchun is now known as chihchun_afk | ||
| flexiondotorg | So, I've added support for that. | 12:25 |
| ogra_ | ugh | 12:25 |
| flexiondotorg | It is working very well. | 12:25 |
| ogra_ | sure, but forget about "official" builds then | 12:25 |
| flexiondotorg | ogra_, Yep. | 12:25 |
| flexiondotorg | They weren't official anyway. | 12:25 |
| ogra_ | well, the snappy ones are | 12:25 |
| flexiondotorg | They are build with ~500 line of bash on one of my laptops ;-) | 12:26 |
| ogra_ | and will likely soon get support for graphical bits | 12:26 |
| flexiondotorg | ogra_, Yeah, my plan is to work on a snappy version. | 12:26 |
| ogra_ | cool :) | 12:26 |
| flexiondotorg | ogra_, And keep this build for the makers. | 12:26 |
| * ogra_ thinks snappy is raher more for "makers" (i.e. robot and embedded builders) | 12:27 | |
| flexiondotorg | Langley, Well you should be editing /boot/firmware/config.txt to tweak the video options. | 12:28 |
| Langley | Wait so it's another file? Not /boot/config.txt ? | 12:33 |
| === chihchun_afk is now known as chihchun | ||
| Langley | flexiondotorg: ?? | 12:37 |
| flexiondotorg | Langley, They are linked. I overlay mounted. I forget which. | 12:38 |
| Langley | Okay.... Well I don't understand anything now. It looks like I forgot to uncomment all the stuff I made, yet it still... broke it | 12:40 |
| Langley | I'll try again | 12:41 |
| Langley | Allright it worked, with the resolution part. But now it turns the display off after a while, even though it is set not to in Power settings... Any ideas?? | 13:44 |
| regum | hello everyone | 15:14 |
| regum | I am trying to boot to the command line with ubuntu 14 arm running on a raspberry pi 2, how can I go about doing this? | 15:15 |
| genii | regum: Possibly relevant: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RaspberryPi | 15:18 |
| regum | genii, that's where I got the image | 15:19 |
| genii | regum: If you follow the instructions there, step by step, you should be fine | 15:21 |
| regum | I'm fine, but I end up with a permanent gui | 15:21 |
| regum | I don't want that | 15:21 |
| genii | regum: You should have ended up with an ubuntu-minimal install, without any gui whatsoever ( if you followed the instructions properly). Or did you install one of the desktops (kubuntu, lubuntu,xubuntu, ubuntu, etc) ? | 15:27 |
| regum | i needed lubuntu | 15:28 |
| regum | no worries though, I seem to have figured it out | 15:28 |
| regum | if you're interested, adding 'single' to the kernel parameters did it | 15:29 |
| genii | ..but that drops you to root... | 15:36 |
| zirpu | regnum you can turn off X11 startup, instead of going to single-user mode. | 15:50 |
| zirpu | usually it's something like 'lightdm'. so easiest way to disable: sudo mv /etc/init/lightdm.conf /etc/init/lightdm.conf.disabled | 15:53 |
| zirpu | then reboot. should startup in console mode. | 15:53 |

| regum | hello everyone | 21:06 |
| regum | when I turn a raspberry on, it boots to a root user | 21:07 |
| regum | it refuses my ssh connection until i log in as a user | 21:07 |
| regum | how can I make it so that i don't have to do this? | 21:07 |
| infinity | regum: "boots to a root user"? If it's a proper ubuntu install, it should boot to a login prompt. | 21:40 |
| infinity | regum: If you're getting a shell, it's probably a recovery shell that is asking you to fsck your filesystem. | 21:40 |
| infinity | regum: Which, indeed, won't have multiuser capabilities like SSH started. | 21:41 |
| k1l_ | infinity: single user mode does boot directly into root | 21:41 |
| k1l_ | its like recovery | 21:41 |
| infinity | k1l_: Right, same same. | 21:41 |
| k1l_ | ah wait. we sorted that already in #ubuntu. he missed the solutions and remarks when he quit to fast | 21:42 |
| infinity | regum_2: Did the other regum see all my messages? :P | 21:42 |
| regum_2 | I don't know who the other regum is, I thought noone would have this username | 21:43 |
| regum_2 | oh well | 21:43 |
| infinity | The other regum was you. :P | 21:43 |
| regum_2 | not any more | 21:43 |
| regum_2 | apparently | 21:43 |
| regum_2 | it wouldn't have pushed me into regum_2 if regum wan't taken, would it? | 21:44 |
| regum_2 | I'm new to irc, sorry | 21:44 |
| infinity | regum_2: Anyhow, you're either booting to a recovery shell or to single user mode. You're not in a full multiuser system at that point. | 21:44 |
| infinity | regum_2: Yes, it was taken, by you. And then you timed out. | 21:44 |
| infinity | 15:42 -!- regum_2 [~regum@240.Red-88-17-203.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-arm | 21:44 |
| infinity | 15:42 -!- regum [~regum@240.Red-88-17-203.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 255 | 21:44 |
| regum_2 | well that's kinda weird | 21:44 |
| regum_2 | I fixed it :) | 21:45 |
| k1l_ | regum_2: on irc the old connections are kept for a bit if you reconnect your internet connection and not properly shut down the irc lcient. | 21:45 |
| regum_2 | I disabled the 'single' and run this: | 21:45 |
| regum_2 | sudo mv /etc/init/lightdm.conf /etc/init/lightdm.conf.disabled | 21:45 |
| regum_2 | it works like a charm | 21:45 |
| regum_2 | oh yeah, I might have done that | 21:45 |
| k1l_ | if you have a registered nick on freenode you can "ghost " that old connection and make you use your nick again | 21:45 |
| regum_2 | didn't know that would happen though | 21:45 |
| regum_2 | sorry | 21:45 |
| regum_2 | well, tomorrow I'll log in as regum? | 21:46 |
| regum_2 | it's fine then | 21:46 |
| ogra_ | hmm, he could have just replaced "single" with "text" .... would have saved him from moving the lightdm job around | 22:15 |
| k1l_ | told him that already in #ubuntu but he didnt wanted it to change back then. | 22:16 |
| ogra_ | ah well, whatever helps him :) | 22:18 |
