| currybullen | i installed a snap application called caprine (a chat client) on fedora. do i need to do something with snapd to be able to open links i click on in caprine in my web browser? | 00:23 |

| cowsay_ | hey.. I'm using the vs code snap in classic confinement. I'm trying to edit a site that I have mounted via webdav. It gets mounted to "/run/user/1000/gvfs/dav:host=neocities.org,ssl=true,prefix=%2Fwebdav" and vscode throws the error "cannot open path of the current working directory: Permission denied". I believe this is due to the confinement preventing access to /run. is there any way to circumvent this or force it to allow access to specific | 00:43 |
| cowsay_ | locations? | 00:43 |
| cowsay_ | nevermind, i worked around it by using davfs2 instead of the Nautilus plugin (I guess??) and mounting manually to /media instead | 01:07 |
| ogra | cowsay_, yeah, gvfs is still an issue, see https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/difficulty-viewing-mounted-fileystems-via-samba-nfs-gvfs-interface/14680 | 01:27 |
| sdhd-sascha | ogra: can i sometimes ask you some questions about the rpi4 - kernel, gadget and core image ? here i have two arm cortex boards and want to build an ubuntu image for it ? They are rockchip and amlogic. | 10:59 |
| sdhd-sascha | i wonder where the ubuntu-eoan/debian.raspi2/abi/5.3..../arm64/raspi2* files come from ? | 11:00 |
| ogra | sdhd-sascha, from the kernel team :) it is one of the multiple snippets the debian package build creates its config from ... if you dont build for RPi i wouldnt care about it though ... | 11:44 |
| sdhd-sascha | Thank you. I just copied and renamed the generic from arm for now | 13:04 |
| ogra | sdhd-sascha, you dont need to copy anything ... just using "kconfigflavour: generic" in snapcraft.yaml is enough ... then you can use "kconfigs:" to override certain settings as needed | 13:47 |
| sdhd-sascha | ogra: i already start building the kernel. And as next step. I want to figure out, where to modify the kconfigflavour. I started with your raspi2 snap | 13:48 |
| sdhd-sascha | currently i have `kconfigflavour: rk3318`. But i think the build will now fail, because i don't know where the flavour comes from. I cloned the "debian.raspi2" directory to "debian.rk3318/" | 13:50 |
| ogra | alternatively you can use upstream defconfigs like i do in https://github.com/ogra1/linux-multi-v7-snap/blob/master/snap/snapcraft.yaml#L31 ... with the patches from line 39 (https://github.com/ogra1/linux-multi-v7-snap/blob/master/patches/configs.patch) | 13:50 |
| ogra | (thats a rockchip 32bit kernel btw) | 13:52 |
| sdhd-sascha | really 32bit ? Oo | 13:52 |
| ogra | yeah, arm64 on boards with less than (or equa to) 4GB ram is wasteful nonsense IMHO :) (others disaree :) ) | 13:53 |
| ogra | *disagree | 13:53 |
| sdhd-sascha | ok, that's a good point. I didn't thought about the ram | 13:53 |
| sdhd-sascha | :-) | 13:54 |
| ogra | (arm64 binaries allocate nearly twice the amount of ram for no benefit) | 13:54 |
| sdhd-sascha | oh | 13:54 |
| sdhd-sascha | then i will change it back to "armhf" | 13:54 |
| ogra | i.e. the core16 image on a dragonboard consumes ~90MB for the idling OS ... vs ~40MB on a rpi | 13:55 |
| sdhd-sascha | u-boot i will took from here: https://github.com/rockchip-linux/u-boot | 13:56 |
| ogra | (dragonboard runs wpa-supplicant by default thats accoutable for the extra10MB over doubling it i assume) | 13:56 |
| sdhd-sascha | ok - i hope one of the boards will work. The other one is a amlogic S912 | 13:57 |
| ogra | for a rockchip 32bit one i have https://github.com/ogra1/tinkerboard-gadget ... for 64bit there is https://github.com/ogra1/rock64-gadget | 13:58 |
| sdhd-sascha | wow, i didn't found this. thank you :-) | 13:59 |
| sdhd-sascha | from one device i found the dtb and dtbo. I know, i can decompile the dtb? But what should i do with the overlay ? | 14:00 |
| ogra | nothing for the start :) | 14:01 |
| ogra | i assume you have seen https://ograblog.wordpress.com/2017/06/13/patching-u-boot-for-use-in-an-ubuntu-core-gadget-snap/ and https://ograblog.wordpress.com/2017/05/30/building-u-boot-gadget-snap-packages-from-source/ ? | 14:01 |
| ogra | (old but should mostly still work fine) | 14:02 |
| sdhd-sascha | thank you. Some months ago, i already experimented with rpi4 dtb and dtbo. But can't remember today :-D | 14:03 |
| ogra | rpi is special ... | 14:03 |
| ogra | thanks to the proprietary bootoader | 14:03 |
| sdhd-sascha | yes. we want uefi ;-) | 14:03 |
| ogra | try to ignore it if you buuild something that supports plain ubot | 14:04 |
| sdhd-sascha | Here is the thread for the rpi4 netboot stuff. https://www.mail-archive.com/u-boot@lists.denx.de/msg351580.html | 14:04 |
| sdhd-sascha | Sometime i want to test netboot on rpi4 with u-boot. Without u-boot it works good. | 14:05 |
| ogra | oh, thats quite some work ... i started working on that once before i changed teams ... take a look at alexander garfs work https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=169982 | 14:05 |
| ogra | *graf's | 14:05 |
| ogra | netboot work work with core without some massive changes to the initrd scripts | 14:06 |
| sdhd-sascha | Yes, in the past, i could boot rpi4 kernel and ubuntu root on nfs | 14:07 |
| ogra | sure, you can still do that easily with a classic ubuntu server image | 14:07 |
| sdhd-sascha | Did you work today or are you free ? | 14:08 |
| ogra | but the initrd scripts of core make a lot of assumptions and do a very special mount setup to achieve writable dirs on top of a readonly squashfs that in turn lives on the writable partition (there are several loops involved in the mount process) | 14:08 |
| ogra | i'm off til mondy like most of canonical :) | 14:09 |
| ogra | *monday | 14:09 |
| sdhd-sascha | nice :-) | 14:09 |
| ogra | (the company officially shuts down from christmas to new year for two weeks) | 14:10 |
| sdhd-sascha | i read about that, on the forum :-) | 14:11 |
| ogra | yeap | 14:11 |
| sdhd-sascha | I'm still looking for the right job. that's why I'm currently fill my knowledge gaps | 14:12 |
| ogra | well, i assume you saw https://canonical.com/careers/all-vacancies already then :) | 14:13 |
| sdhd-sascha | Yes ! :-) 6 or 7 years ago, i already wrote to canonical | 14:13 |
| sdhd-sascha | didn't get an answer. So i think i need to become better first | 14:14 |
| * ogra needs to go AFK again ... back later ... | 14:16 | |
