IRC log of #cubox of Tue 14 Aug 2012. All times are in CEST < Back to index

00:40 dung babies depend on mamas
00:43 dung i'm very happy to present the new wiki layout
00:43 dung i hope didn't something wrong
00:54 dung "My" Cubox is working as you can see in the wiki. I haven't managed to start my irc client from cubox, so i'm next to instabile server.
00:56 dung i think we found a point to connect (see red marks)
00:57 dung Where's Rabeeh?
01:05 N30N 01635
01:08 dun 01:08 * dung Toung
01:09 N30 01:09 * N30N was typing on the wrong keyboard ;)
01:09 Punkley_chillin Rabeeh is on vacation
01:12 Punkley_chillin he said he should be back this week I think
01:13 dung 1st April
01:14 Punkley_chillin I was going to pick your brain also dung, see if your brain can shead some light on the issue I'm having
01:14 dung |/_
01:15 Punkley_chillin :)
01:16 Punkley_chillin do u have any idea, why if I add a initrd file, default ubuntu setup, dovefb which is in the kernel (but not a module) would suddenly break xvideo, it works flawlessly without the initrd file.
01:17 Punkley_chillin I know they should have nothing to do with each other, but I suspect initrd is changing something or using memory dovefb doesn't like
01:18 dung forget initrd, my dovefb also crashes
01:18 dung the new gl libraries give us a task
01:19 Punkley_chillin does it crash on xvid or just generally, because X still loads ok for me.
01:19 dung please correct me (wiki)
01:20 dung no X at all
01:20 dung or stolen driver
01:20 Punkley_chillin u using armhf?
01:21 dung trying
01:21 dung sometimes ;)
01:21 Punkley_chillin I figured I would let others try for a bit before I did :)
01:21 dung why?
01:23 Punkley_chillin get some of the bugs out the way, all the things people have problems with are the bits I'm not strong with. I don't play with X all that often.
01:23 dung stolen meens downloaded this way
01:23 dung Pits?
01:24 Punkley_chillin ?
01:24 dung is just a little bit, i know
01:26 dung I hope X startx without HDMI, dont know
01:27 Punkley_chillin wierd thing with my bug is, it will work a couple of times then it wont a couple then it starts working.
01:28 Punkley_chillin if it boots up and works, it keeps working,
01:28 dung tell me you aufs script
01:30 Punkley_chillin im not loading it
01:30 dung just load it to U-Boot, haha
01:31 Punkley_chillin I haven't put the script it yet
01:31 Punkley_chillin just ran update-initrd and added the lines to boot.scr
01:31 Punkley_chillin to load that
01:33 dung scripts temperarly change
01:36 Punkley_chillin yer but I can't see which one is triggering the issue (or why)
01:40 dung an U_Boot script is just a list of U_Boot commands
01:40 dung u boot
01:40 dung what about debian!?
01:41 dung no issues ?
01:42 dung the next thing are drivers (not boott)
01:42 dung i'm happy to see exchanges
01:43 dung we met at the same point
01:43 dung configure and build "those" packages
01:44 dung others have provided at least an armel dovefb
01:45 dung which gets 12.04 running nowadays
01:45 dung without intervention
01:47 dung compared to my not-have-built exception
01:48 dung tvheadend has nothing to do on building linux - create another page
01:49 dung Keep it simple stupid (K.I.S.S.)
01:49 Punkley_chillin im using 12.04 armel, it works
01:50 Punkley_chillin mostly
01:51 dung Be happy with CLI for hardcore testing
01:52 dung !=mplayer
01:53 dung except *vmeta.patch
01:53 Punkley_chillin mplayer vmeta would be nice :)
01:54 dung lib..bmm-vmeta..
01:55 dung if streamers is installed gst-play is your alternative
01:56 dung Don't forget plugins
01:56 Punkley_chillin yer im using gstreamer (thats how I know xvideo is not playing nicely :)
01:57 dung The problem seems to belong to Xorg-dovefb
01:58 Punkley_chillin that is what i would guess.
01:58 dung of glx
01:59 dung or glx
01:59 dung or their headers
02:00 Punkley_chillin glxcore?
02:00 dung How is the kernel driver incolved?
02:01 dung the whole glx pkg
02:01 Punkley_chillin it is all built into rabeeh's 3.5.0 kernel
02:01 Punkley_chillin no modules, just included in
02:01 dung yrd
02:01 dung yes
02:02 dung first, we have no other Cubox linux
02:02 Punkley_chillin im think about using another kernel
02:03 Punkley_chillin see what happens
02:05 dung ok
02:05 dung see gittutorial !?
02:05 dung stop
02:05 dung Punkley_chillin: your problem seems to be related to X and/or its driver
02:05 dung I'm not running these X drivers
02:06 dung I have troble myself getting one going
02:07 Punkley_chillin yer it is really wierd
02:07 dung forget init - see x
02:08 Punkley_chillin I've been looking everywhere,
02:08 Punkley_chillin i think this server has rebooted 1000 while I look for it :)
02:08 dung replug the cable once or twice
02:09 dung soon be removed
02:09 Punkley_chillin its just odd as it is stable without the xinird file being loaded
02:09 Punkley_chillin works every time flawlessly
02:09 dung don't ever talk about init!
02:10 Punkley_chillin :)
02:10 Punkley_chillin if i could load my aufs system without it I would :)
02:10 dung slep
02:12 dung fisrt try boot armel debs
02:12 dung for armhf ask thcheadend
02:13 dung *tv
02:16 dun 02:16 * dung is sill caring
02:16 Punkley_chillin :)
02:17 dun 02:17 * dung and lost connection otherwise
02:18 dung *lost, ha

02:22 dung kconf?
02:23 dung salute
02:25 dung i don't care
02:25 dung see fifo
02:27 dung For X and dove you should really focus on .
02:28 dung private working directoriy
02:29 dung Kernel drivers also focus on > build direcotry
02:30 dung No, no. Some drivers built upon linux drivers may do anything
02:31 dung What's Buffer Management?
02:31 dung vmeta and ..
02:31 dung gstreamer - no
02:32 dung XBMC upon vmeta - Ok
02:32 dung INSPECT
02:34 dung INIT= { ? }
02:45 dung from >< to
02:45 dung what's exatctly >
02:50 dbsx Without being too harsh dung, I think you have made the wiki worse. At least to the point where methinks I have made my last contribution to it.
07:41 andoma anyone know if it's possible to do opengl on the cubox without having X running?
12:43 dung dbsx: i think the wiki is now sorted and clearer. it isn't interesting to read on every page how to copy linux on usb and tell u-boot.
12:44 dung it's covered no it's page
12:45 dung usb is worst, not even easiest
12:52 dung but every one may choose
12:53 dung the driver rebuild page is getting distribution independent
12:56 dung sorry for my lots of "minor" changes. please contribute
12:57 dung it's my first experience in web 2.0
13:12 dung also sorry for confusing on irc :)
13:12 dung that's wine
13:24 dung I'm not sure how to call the pages. For most pages "Cubox" should be in the title and address.
13:26 dung for search engines and human
13:33 dung cbxbiker61, you've write access to git/linux and do update?
13:43 The-Compiler Has anyone in here ever tested how much throughput a CuBox can handle from eSATA to Ethernet? Can it actually do 1Gbps?
13:50 dung not tested but it won't draw much power :)
13:53 The-Compiler that's not related to my question :P
14:21 yaayaa Hi. What is the status of the hardware acc with dovefb under Arch ? any archers using the cubox here ? cheers
15:01 N30N +1 Archer without hw accelerated video. Was trying to compile XBMC to compile last night without much luck.
15:19 yaayaa N30N: too bad. Why xilak when you can arch...
15:51 dung +1 Archer sometimes
16:11 dung ch3i: I suggest not linking to webchat directly from main wiki page. It's enough to show that there's a channel and let one find out how to join irc.
16:11 ch3i Hi
16:12 ch3i But for noob like me, it's so easy :D
16:12 dung nice nick :)
16:14 dung You also have to boot (on)? i386
16:22 ch3i dung: you can modify the main wiki page if you want, I have linking to the webchat directly for an easy use.
16:22 dv505 dung: I think you posted the question on the wiki on how to turn on logging for IRC
16:23 dv505 first, could you use the discussion page for asking questions, not posting questions in the main article? instructions are on the discussion page: http://www.solid-run.com/mw/index.php/Talk:IRC_chat
16:27 ch3i dv505 : Thank's for the modification on main page, I didn't see the IRC page -_-
16:28 dv505 yeah, was wondering why that link dissapeared. The IRC archive might actually be useful for some users
16:29 dung Ok. Thank you. Talking is important.
16:30 Kiranos should be in topic aswell here
16:30 dung Just thought everyone who wants to chat may select different methods. Webchat is to easy and floods the channel.
16:30 Kiranos the log
16:32 dung It won't stress CuBox to log IRC.
16:34 dung Not everybody wants to chat but wine
16:35 dung If channel is flooded there not a lot answers to questions
16:35 dv505 not sure if everyone is aware, you can also send messages to users on the wiki. Might help with building better pages
16:35 dv505 see instructions at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Contact_us/Contact_a_user
16:38 dung mh - thanks, i have to get a roboter :)
16:39 dung for e-communications
16:42 dung i'm going to cook my old tomatoes before they get much more
16:42 dun 16:42 * dung is hungry
16:47 andoma me too
16:57 KaZeR_W andoma, are you planning to port showtime to the cubox? is it a work in progress maybe?
17:34 andoma KaZeR_W: yes
17:34 andoma that's the plan
21:03 merono Hello everyone
21:03 merono I'm looking for help to make the sound over spdif work
21:04 merono when i type "lsmod" i get only i module loaded : sg 17137 0
21:05 merono i installed xbmc version of april 9
21:05 merono I've sound over hdmi when xbmc is running
21:31 cmair merono: if you have sound over hdmi, spdif should work too. They get the same signal.
21:49 N30N cmair: Did you have any luck with the XBMC-PVR patches yesterday? ;)
21:57 cmair N30N: no. I had to go to bed at midnight. I didn't finish yet.
21:59 cmair It looks like that the patchset was created before all this android stuff was merged.
22:03 N30N Ok. Well let me know if you have any luck with it. :)
22:25 shesselba dung: IRC log doesn't mean _you_ log the IRC channel but there is (was) a web page link _to_ the log of the IRC channel.. please stop messing up the wiki without any reason!
22:34 dv505 the web page for the IRC log should still be up. Not working for you, shesselba?
22:34 shesselba it is up again because you fixed it
22:34 shesselba but hell, he almost spammed the wiki change log
22:34 shesselba plus the irc channel
22:35 shesselba and honestly, I didn't even understand what the fkn problem is..
22:39 dv505 I know, I sent a message using the wiki about that to dung. If he want more information, he can contact me, but all info should be there
22:39 dv505 and that info doesn't even belong on the wiki, IMHO
