| 06:52 | spoown | Hello |
| 07:21 | jnettlet | spoown, welcome |
| 08:15 | RalphCirella | what a bunch of fucking faggots |
| 14:01 | kgp | android 4.4.4 released ;) |
| 14:08 | kgp | So time to update android on cubox to 4.4.4 ! ;) |
| 14:14 | gvy | mornin' |
| 16:41 | jnettlet | Has anyone done benchmarking on the eSata port? |
| 16:50 | Deslo | 16:50 * Deslok waves hello |
| 16:53 | Deslok | I've been reading through the forums a few days sofar, I'm curious if anyone here is using a cubox as a thin client in an office enviroment? |
| 16:54 | kgp | Not really ;) |
| 16:54 | kgp | The software is almost here... but not yet. |
| 16:55 | kgp | I want to replace a mac mini for my child. |
| 16:55 | kgp | And a home media center, server, etc... |
| 16:56 | jnettlet | Deslok, there someone testing that but I can't remember who. |
| 16:56 | Deslok | I see, I was looking at ordering an i4Pro to evaluate it in conjunction with a Msft Terminal server |
| 16:57 | Deslok | But with all the os choices I was hoping to cut down testing a tad |
| 16:58 | kgp | The android implementation is ok, the media center implementation is almost here, the desktop implementation is not yet here. but will be! |
| 16:59 | Deslok | sounds like android with the msft client then should be the first one to try |
| 17:09 | UmbraMalison | hey, anyone know where i can find the kernel headers for linux-linaro-stable-mx6? |
| 17:09 | UmbraMalison | or perhaps, standard 3.10 is okay? |
| 17:34 | UmbraMalison | why is there not pxp_device.h in cubox 3.10.17 kernel? it's referenced in imx-libs |
| 17:36 | UmbraMalison | actually, pxp_device.c exists in drivers/dma/pxp/ . but there is no pxp_device.h in include or anywhere |
| 17:37 | UmbraMalison | sraue: did you face this problem ^ in your OE builds? |
| 17:37 | UmbraMalison | i presume you must have compiled imx-libs... ? |
| 19:47 | UmbraMalison | cubox-i, vfpv3 or vfpv3-d16? |
| 19:52 | UmbraMalison | or even vfpv3-d32 according to https://community.freescale.com/thread/303672 |
| 19:53 | jnettlet | UmbraMalison, vfpv3-16 |
| 19:53 | jnettlet | with NEON |
| 19:53 | UmbraMalison | thanks jnettlet. |
| 19:54 | UmbraMalison | also, did you have problem with missing pxp_device.h? |
| 19:54 | UmbraMalison | when compiling imx-libs |
| 19:54 | UmbraMalison | i'm just trying a fresh build, so perhaps the error will not be there this time. but probably will be |
| 20:09 | Anssi | pretty sure imx6 is "vfpv3-d32" (aka "vfpv3"), not vfpv3-d16 |
| 20:26 | UmbraMalison | Anssi: apparently not all cortex A 8,9 are D32. according to this help snippet i'm reading. D16 will work for all. but if you and the link i posted above are correct, the imx6 should indeed be vfpv3...as you say, that is vfpv3D32. thanks for that |
| 20:26 | kgp | Fucking Python :( |
| 20:29 | kgp | I always have issue when compiling things |
| 20:29 | kgp | when I cross-compile |
| 20:29 | UmbraMalison | i don't like pyton tabbing |
| 20:29 | UmbraMalison | s/pyton/python/ |
| 20:40 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: hi man |
| 20:40 | cbxbiker61 | hey |
| 20:41 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: ;) im trying to upgrade the kernel with your script, and im getting imx-3.10.4-zImage imx6dl-cubox-i-3.10.4.dtb imx6dl-hummingboard-3.10.4.dtb imx6q-cubox-i-3.10.4.dtb files are missing even when they are at /boot |
| 20:41 | cbxbiker61 | make sure you mount /dev/mmcblkp1 at /boot |
| 20:41 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: mm, wait a sec, its looking for .4 not .40 |
| 20:42 | GAZ082 | yes, its already mounted, but just noticed the file is checking is wrong, missing a zero |
| 20:42 | GAZ082 | ill see if modifing the script works |
| 20:42 | UmbraMalison | cbxbiker61: have you compiled imx-libs with cubox? |
| 20:43 | cbxbiker61 | which libs are in imx-libs? |
| 20:43 | cbxbiker61 | the .so |
| 20:43 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: was wrong on my side, missed the zero when passing the parameter |
| 20:44 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: now i get a ln: failed to create hard link 'zImage' => 'imx-3.10.40-zImage': Operation not permitted with each of the 4 files... even with sudo |
| 20:44 | UmbraMalison | imx-libs (freescale) contains, hdmi-cec, ipu, pxp, rng, shara2, screeenlayer, sim |
| 20:44 | cbxbiker61 | yeah, it should do a copy instead of link....when the link fails |
| 20:45 | cbxbiker61 | link doesn't work on fat |
| 20:46 | cbxbiker61 | no, i haven't compiled imx-libs |
| 20:46 | UmbraMalison | do you not need it? |
| 20:47 | cbxbiker61 | i have the libs lingering from the original geexbox install, when i get a chance i'll recompile those libs |
| 20:47 | UmbraMalison | that's a good point. i should check to see what geexbox did. |
| 20:48 | UmbraMalison | from what i can see, the cubox-i kernel which is based on freescale linux2.6-imx.git (that's just what they called it) is missing pxp_device.h, unlike its parent |
| 20:49 | cbxbiker61 | well i don't have a pxp_device.h on my system |
| 20:50 | UmbraMalison | indeed. its a dependency for imx-libs. it looks like it was stripped out...but why would that happen |
| 20:50 | cbxbiker61 | packages quite often don't include headers |
| 20:50 | cbxbiker61 | packagers |
| 20:51 | UmbraMalison | so perhaps i could just copy it over... |
| 20:54 | cbxbiker61 | i finally have my generic netlink code working...it replaces a huge chunk of ugly file base message passing, it's nice and clean...and robust |
| 20:55 | UmbraMalison | nice, no idea what that means. but sounds like you deserve a well done! :) |
| 20:58 | kgp | Found my issue :) |
| 20:58 | kgp | I have move to python 2.7 to build another stuff. |
| 20:59 | kgp | Argh no :( python 3.4 is not working too. (another error) |
| 21:05 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: is there any issue with wifi in .40? |
| 21:05 | cbxbiker61 | it was working well for me |
| 21:14 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: mm, this kernel update deletes iptables config? |
| 21:15 | cbxbiker61 | no |
| 21:15 | cbxbiker61 | it has full iptables support |
| 21:16 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: yes, it does not delete the rules... but for some reason cant ssh since i installed it |
| 21:18 | cbxbiker61 | the network driver is a modules, make sure you get that loaded |
| 21:19 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: i do have a working wifi link, do i have to check this network driver as well? |
| 21:20 | cbxbiker61 | yeah, all of the network drivers are modules |
| 21:20 | cbxbiker61 | if you build the "default" module in...it makes external adapters messy |
| 21:20 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: and... how do i do that? :O |
| 21:21 | cbxbiker61 | do what? |
| 21:21 | cbxbiker61 | internal net? |
| 21:21 | GAZ082 | check the network drivers are loaded |
| 21:21 | GAZ082 | is that a systemd? |
| 21:22 | cbxbiker61 | in systemd you add .conf files in /etc/modules-load.d |
| 21:23 | cbxbiker61 | brcmfmac handles the internal wifi |
| 21:25 | GAZ082 | i never had to do that when installed archlinux |
| 21:25 | GAZ082 | my modules.load.d dir is empty |
| 21:25 | cbxbiker61 | yes...i said modules makes external wifi easier |
| 21:27 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: lets reboot... i cannot make a ping on my cubox but it does have a link by showing in the router. Somehow have a link but not network connection. What should i Google to get me started in solving this? |
| 21:35 | cbxbiker61 | GAZ082, the easiest approach is to use the serial connector to open up a local console on the device |
| 21:36 | cbxbiker61 | then run the commands until you isolate the problem |
| 21:36 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: yep, im doing that right now |
| 21:36 | cbxbiker61 | btw, journalctl is your friend |
| 21:36 | cbxbiker61 | journalctl -a |
| 21:37 | cbxbiker61 | make sure no abnormalities there, also systemctl to make sure all jobs started |
| 21:38 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: btw, whats your normal wifi transfer speed? |
| 21:39 | cbxbiker61 | the internal wifi spec is 75Mbit/s |
| 21:40 | cbxbiker61 | it's fine for most things, but not fast enough for the media files i use |
| 21:41 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: i wean real world usage |
| 21:41 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: i cant get through 800 KB/s |
| 21:43 | cbxbiker61 | yeah, i ran some perf checks initially, but i don't remember what they were, other than I know that in the real-world my 150Mbit dongle tests out about twice as fast |
| 21:50 | cbxbiker61 | GAZ082, turn off wifi power savings, that makes wifi more responsive |
| 21:50 | cbxbiker61 | it'll probably fix any issue you have with ssh into box |
| 21:51 | GAZ082 | cbxbiker61: i'll c heck if wifi conf was reset due kernel upgrade |
| 21:56 | GAZ082 | it's disabled as per deviceconf file |
| 22:06 | GAZ082 | damn |
| 23:41 | GAZ082 | damn man, i will have to reinstall the kernel, this messed up everythign. |
| 23:44 | kgp | :) |
