[09:59] <zzarr> hello! is there a xenial image for the Dragonboard 410c?
[15:27] <curlyears> greets.   May I assume that the folks here can answer queries about ubuntu on Raspberry PiB2?
[15:28] <curlyears> k1l_:  howdy. thanks for pointing this channel out to me
[15:29] <curlyears> does anyone have any idea when ubuntu64 willl be available for the Pi3?
[15:29] <k1l_> just ask and people will answer if they know the answer and are online
[15:30] <k1l_> https://ubuntu-mate.org/blog/ubuntu-mate-for-raspberry-pi-3/
[15:31] <curlyears> thankjs, k1l_
[15:31] <k1l_> and here there should be the 16.04 releases https://ubuntu-mate.org/raspberry-pi/
[15:55] <curlyears> cool...downladinfg UbuntuMate 16.04 64 bit now.  Will be ordering my Pi3 next week
[16:00] <curlyears> so, basically, runnung UbuntuMATE 16.04 ON MY Pi3 should be funtionally identical to running it on my desktop, right?
[16:01] <curlyears> functionally
[16:01] <k1l_> but be aware that all packages need to be build for ARM64. which is the case for the ubuntu repos. but not for other 3rd party repos and most PPAs
[16:04] <curlyears> that makes sense.. the binaries are completely different for an ARM-based system
[16:05] <curlyears> do the SDC slots on Pis work correctly with cards with greater than 4GB capacity?
[16:10]  * ogra_ doesnt think there are any arm64 images of ubuntu mate yet
[16:10] <ogra_> the one you can download clearly says it is armhf
[16:11] <curlyears> ogra_ well, the UbuntuMATE website says different, and I have kust downloaded one (can't test it yet, as I haven't yet purchased my Pi3.
[16:11] <ogra_> where exacvtly does it say different ?
[16:12] <curlyears> I hope Pi3 availability is better than Pi0 availability
[16:12] <ogra_> "The image is based on the regular Ubuntu armhf base..."
[16:12] <curlyears> on the home page at theri website
[16:12] <ogra_> is pretty much the first sentence on the download page
[16:12] <curlyears> well, they have a 64 bit download
[16:13] <ogra_> (and yes, you can run the 32bit armhf pi2 image on the pi3)
[16:13] <curlyears> yah, I was aware of thAT BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY.
[16:13] <curlyears> oops
[16:13] <ogra_> i casnt seem to find a 64bit image
[16:15] <curlyears> http://linux.softpedia.com/dyn-postdownload.php/bfaa4f42b861069de24873698c7e486b/5722345f/19557/0/1?tsf=0  <--  oops, not UbuntuMAKE's homepage,, sowwy
[16:16] <curlyears> the button that connects to that is labelled "64 bit version"
[16:16] <ogra_> curlyears, thats only amd64 ... not arm64 ... that wont even boot (and is likely also an iso)
[16:16] <curlyears> yeah, it is an iso.
[16:16] <ogra_> thats not for the pi3
[16:16] <ogra_> and i dont think the bootloader is even ready for 64bit on the pi3 yet
[16:17] <ogra_> (i could be wrong though, it's a while since i checked last)
[16:18] <curlyears> damn, you're right, of course.  I didn't notice that, since I found the button on a page tal;king about Rsdpberry ubuntu
[16:19] <ogra_> take this one https://ubuntu-mate.org/raspberry-pi/ ... buut it will be armhf
[16:22] <curlyears> I'll wait for 16.04 64 to be available, since i don't even have a Pi3 yet, thanks
[16:25] <curlyears> well, thanks, all BCNU
