IRC log of #cubox of Sat 08 Feb 2014. All times are in CET < Back to index

00:33 _dab_ Just read _rmk_ s input on imx kernel. _rmk_ and jnettlet what sort of timeframe for an upstream kernel with video and sound do you expect?
00:36 _rmk_ _dab_: now that jnettlet has hardware again, hopefully there'll be a more modern 3.10 kernel soon.
00:43 _rmk_ _dab_: jnettlet will of course be able to give a better answer than myself
01:14 _dab_ thanks _rmk_
02:48 r00t_ hello?
02:50 r00t_ hey rabeeh
02:54 r00t_ so anyone?
02:55 r00t_ hows the google play certification coming?
06:40 skynat hi everyone
06:42 skynat Im new hear and just got my Cubox i4 I having trouble installing distros on my sd card
06:43 skynat so far all i have been able to install is debian and android
06:44 skynat and on those two the sound dosn't work. I looked on the wiki and was unable to find how to get sound over the HDMI
06:45 skynat I have seen hints that sound may work with geeXbox but am unable to get the sd card script to work
06:46 skynat dd: opening `/tmp/tmp.N8sCH0dHO2/boot/u-boot.imx': No such file or directory <= is the error i get
06:48 skynat I checked for the file but it is missing
07:23 jnettlet skynat, there should be a geexbox image on the SolidRun site that you can just dd onto your card, no scripts.
07:28 skynat thanks Ill look for it
07:30 skynat oh god i'm an idiot I was on the wrong wiki
10:58 _Rarity Hello
10:59 _Rarity I'm here once again to seek assistance with setting up network on my Cubox-I pro with Debian Jesse
11:04 _Rarity My Cubox-I boots the Debian Jesse image just fine. As it has no internet nor any network manager, I edit the /etc/network/interface and insert: "auto eth0, iface eth0 inet dhcp".
11:05 _Rarity Then when I run "ifup eth0", is says "Unable to set up timer: unexpected error".
11:06 _Rarity It is also worth pointing out that the ethernet cable is set to my Ubuntu laptop, configured to share the network over it. Wifi is available, but I figure it is much harder to setup than eth0 in the beggining
11:09 xraxor did you try the forums
11:10 xraxor http://imx.solid-run.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=555#p3476
11:13 _Rarity xraxor: Hello, thanks for the reply and the link. Unfortunatelly, the registering for the forum doesn't seem to be working, which is confirmed by SolidRun, as I wrote them a message about it.
11:29 FrenchW hi

14:23 MikeSeth `/lastlog mikeseth
15:04 MikeSeth okay I don't know what the hell, but my SD card problem is gone
16:16 MikeSeth jnettlet: your SPL doesn't seem to have any additional output
16:16 MikeSeth rabeeh: poke
16:17 MikeSeth jnettlet: s/SPL/u-boot
16:30 frenchw Hi back
16:31 frenchw is the power on usb ports dependeant of the loaded system ? I loaded GEEXBOX on the SD but the USB Ports are not "strong "enough and the disks are "ticking"
16:32 frenchw disks are 2.5 external drives. tested 2 disks on both cubox-Iport
17:00 MikeSeth frenchw: no
17:01 MikeSeth also the current geexbox image lacks fuse support so your external disks wont work if they are ntfs
22:41 purch am I correct that it is just video stuff why ubuntu oneiric is the latest for cubox-i4?
22:41 purch for server and audio you can upgrade to latest ubuntu?
22:42 purch other one why not armhf?
22:44 MikeSeth the current ubuntu build is based on the reference one from Freescale
22:45 MikeSeth there isn't a newer one because nobody has built one yet
23:22 purch newer kernels have proper drvers?
23:22 purch .... firmware
23:23 purch building newer is not hard, if we have kernel modules/firmware etc
23:26 purch I have been really busy (new kid, new job, etc) to keep up what is going on here
23:26 purch just got my i4
23:44 MikeSeth there's work underway on 3.10
23:44 MikeSeth right now the 3.0.35 fsl one is the one that has full video acceleration
