| 09:17 | Siavash | hi |
| 09:17 | Siavash | I compiled and installed the latest kernel: Linux alarm 3.14.14+ #1 SMP Wed Aug 27 19:33:42 EDT 2014 armv7l GNU/Linux |
| 09:18 | Siavash | but bluetooth is still not working |
| 09:18 | Siavash | I get lots of "Bluetooth: Frame Reassembly Failed" messages after loading the firmware |
| 11:56 | FoXMaN | hello |
| 11:58 | FoXMaN | it looks like analog output in hummingboard 2iex (sgtl5000) does not work in linux-linaro-lsk-v3.14-mx6 |
| 12:02 | FoXMaN | anyone got in working properly? |
| 12:12 | rabeeh | FoXMaN: sgtl5k and pcie are a work in progress on LK 3.14 |
| 12:12 | rabeeh | if you want it right now then the LK 3.0.35 supports it |
| 12:14 | R0nd | what about cubox? does everything work on 3.14? |
| 12:40 | FoXMaN | rabeeh: can i help with development/testing in LK 3.14 somehow? |
| 12:40 | FoXMaN | rabeeh: in which repo can i find the 3.0.35 source tree you mentioned? |
| 12:41 | FoXMaN | or is it vanilla? |
| 14:42 | joelbaby | @Tempest_nano did it work? |
| 14:43 | hrw | hi |
| 14:44 | hrw | suihkulokki: you here as well? :D |
| 14:45 | suihkulokki | hrw: ever since I got the original cubox :) |
| 14:46 | hrw | suihkulokki: after RMK comments I decided to try dig in Cubox community in a search for 'mythical mx6 kernel which works' ;D |
| 14:47 | joelbaby | define works ? |
| 14:47 | hrw | joelbaby: has anything better than plain fbdev x11? |
| 14:48 | hrw | I have wandboard quad ;( |
| 14:48 | joelbaby | well ... i compiled 3.16 and it worked natively. but none of the device drivers were in it :) |
| 14:49 | joelbaby | https://github.com/linux4kix/linux-linaro-stable-mx6/tree/linux-linaro-lsk-v3.14-mx6 |
| 14:49 | joelbaby | 3.14.14 is quite good. |
| 14:49 | hrw | joelbaby: imx_v7_cbi_hb_defconfig does not build with 4.8.3 cross compiler |
| 14:50 | hrw | zImage builds but not modules |
| 14:50 | joelbaby | i cross compiled it all using ubuntu |
| 14:50 | joelbaby | on a pc. |
| 14:50 | hrw | so fedora cross to blame ;d |
| 14:50 | Artox | gcc-4.8.1 native builds fine too |
| 14:52 | joelbaby | export ARCH=arm export; CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi- |
| 14:53 | hrw | joelbaby: I know ;D |
| 14:53 | hr | 14:53 * hrw added cross compilers to Ubuntu |
| 14:54 | joelbaby | also if you have problems with making .config, then use the one on my dropbox which I got from Rudi: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/mxd21n9i11nkh3y/AABixiwrXweespeTqGBvLuCsa?dl=0 |
| 14:54 | hrw | ok |
| 14:55 | hrw | grabbed gcc-linaro 4.9-2014.08 instead |
| 14:55 | joelbaby | hey do you know much about framebuffers? |
| 14:56 | joelbaby | I've been compiling new ones into mxc_hdmi.c to try and get rid of overscan. |
| 14:56 | joelbaby | although my TV runs them, (and I can switch to them with echo xxxxx > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/mode ... they still overscan. |
| 14:56 | hrw | joelbaby: nope |
| 14:57 | hrw | joelbaby: my monitor ignores *scan stuff. and tv which I target has an option to ignore that as well |
| 14:57 | joelbaby | ok, i asked because you mentioned fbdev |
| 14:58 | hrw | joelbaby: on wandquad I had to use edid_firmware to make use of fullhd ;( |
| 14:59 | Tempest_nano | Thanks for your help yesterday Joe. I was able to at least sanity check my setup and get a start at isolating Arch's issues with hdmi audio. |
| 14:59 | Tempest_nano | erm Joel |
| 14:59 | joelbaby | Hi tempest. Did the hdmi audio work? |
| 15:02 | hrw | step 1: get working kernel. step 2: put ubuntu 14.04 on sd. step 3: get xbmc working properly |
| 15:02 | hrw | ops, wrong window |
| 15:02 | Tempest_nano | Heh, believe it or not I never actually loaded it. Just mounting the image for comparison was all I needed. I will most certainly use Geexbox for my "second TV" installs. I now see the wisdom packaging philosophy. |
| 15:04 | joelbaby | hrw: which is better on imx6: debian, ubunto or archlinux ? |
| 15:05 | hrw | joelbaby: since when archlinux supports arm? |
| 15:05 | hrw | joelbaby: I would go for debian/ubuntu as I know both. |
| 15:05 | hrw | definitelly not fedora (and I work for Red Hat) |
| 15:09 | joelbaby | hrw ... archlinux has been on cubox for a long time: http://www.solid-run.com/wiki/ArchLinux |
| 15:12 | hrw | joelbaby: Arch Linux ARM is a port of Arch Linux which by some Arch devs is seen as other distro. that's why I asked |
| 15:12 | joelbaby | well i just pine for the days when I used Ultrix. |
| 15:13 | hrw | ;) |
| 15:14 | rabeeh | FoXMaN: mainly testing please |
| 15:14 | rabeeh | LK 3.14 had huge progress; it's performance and stability outperformed any previous releases !!! |
| 15:14 | Tempest_nano | I have had good luck with Archlinux up to this point. |
| 15:14 | rabeeh | but still there are few bugs that we need to squash |
| 15:15 | rabeeh | the sgtl5k and pci-e are very much low level driver initialization things that requires 8GSa/s scope and beyond. |
| 15:17 | rabeeh | hrw: suihkulokki has been here... since... forever :) |
| 15:17 | rabeeh | i think 3 years for now !!! |
| 15:17 | joelbaby | @rabeeh why did you guys choose to use 3.14 as a base kernel, when imx6 is natively supported in 3.16 ? |
| 15:18 | rabeeh | joelbaby: 3.16 is still missing key components |
| 15:18 | rabeeh | like gpu for instance |
| 15:18 | Tempest_nano | Is there a throughput cap for esata connecions? I never seem to do better than 50 MB/s or so. |
| 15:18 | rabeeh | so 3.14 is the best between 3.16 and 3.10 |
| 15:19 | rabeeh | Tempest_nano: i was able to get ~117MB/sec |
| 15:19 | rabeeh | how are you doing the benchmark? add 'time' before the command and check if you are processor limited or not |
| 15:19 | joelbaby | just use dd to time your io |
| 15:20 | rabeeh | try - |
| 15:20 | rabeeh | time dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=1M count=1000 |
| 15:20 | joelbaby | dd of=test if=/dev/zero bs=1K count=2M |
| 15:20 | Tempest_nano | Maybe it is a cabling/shielding issue then. I will do that now, thanks. |
| 15:20 | rabeeh | cabling what? |
| 15:20 | rabeeh | do you see an disparity kernel messages issues? |
| 15:20 | joelbaby | why time ? dd tells you the throughput. |
| 15:21 | rabeeh | time will tell you how much system / user time vs. the real clock time |
| 15:21 | rabeeh | that way you can guess where the bottlenecks are |
| 15:21 | Tempest_nano | The esata drive. The cables could be too long. |
| 15:21 | rabeeh | in my case you would see something like 70% cpu utilization on one of the processors |
| 15:21 | rabeeh | Tempest_nano: those are 3Gbps links; and data is transferred in the speed of light (almost) |
| 15:22 | rabeeh | so it's not that at all |
| 15:22 | joelbaby | optical computing |
| 15:22 | rabeeh | but if you are saying 50MB/sec; then i'm guessing 5400 RPM 2.5" hard drive? |
| 15:24 | Tempest_nano | I stand corrected. 102MB/sec with dd. I must have been limited elsewhere before |
| 15:24 | Tempest_nano | 3.5" 5400RPM. |
| 15:25 | Tempest_nano | Thanks |
| 15:27 | joelbaby | @rabeeh .. have you come across any multiboot menu programs for uboot we could use on imx6? |
| 15:28 | joelbaby | with the SD Card limited to 20MB/s it makes more sense just to use it to boot up, and then switch over to eSATA HDD |
| 15:29 | rabeeh | joelbaby: nop |
| 15:29 | rabeeh | typically the demand we saw from consumers is xbmc / Android dual boot |
| 15:30 | rabeeh | joelbaby: yeah 20MB/sec |
| 15:30 | rabeeh | HB supports natively UHS-1 |
| 15:30 | Tempest_nano | I just have my boot partition formatted ext2 and move symlinks around to change boot environments. |
| 15:30 | rabeeh | Tempest_nano: yeah |
| 15:30 | rabeeh | most of the users on #cubox are beyond average users |
| 15:30 | rabeeh | i'm literally talking about average joe |
| 15:31 | joelbaby | Tempest_nano ... what I'd like is what you have described ... but automated. |
| 15:31 | joelbaby | @rabeeh i have no idea why average joe wants Android on a TV. |
| 15:31 | joelbaby | but i'm not in the US so don't have netflix. |
| 15:31 | Tempest_nano | At least with just a mouse interface. |
| 15:32 | joelbaby | i wonder if someone like hrw would know if this is possible: Boot into a really basic linux in the SD Card. Then ... have some kind of menu (like grub) to boot into a different OS on a chosen partition. |
| 15:32 | Tempest_nano | I have considered a dual boot system where I run a script on my main system to move the symlinks and reboot, and the secondary system automatically returns the symlinks to their default. |
| 15:33 | hrw | http://paste.fedoraproject.org/129309/32521140 - same with fedora 4.8.3, linaro 4.9-2014.08, linaro 4.8-2014.04 |
| 15:33 | Tempest_nano | tricorn has hinted in forum posts that he has a workable multi-boot setup. I never used his mini-image since it gave a black screen on my setup. |
| 15:34 | joelbaby | Tempest_nano I was reading that the problem with true multiboot via uboot that no keyboard input is possible via usb... you have to control the menu via the console interface. |
| 15:34 | hrw | joelbaby: you can boot to grub as well |
| 15:34 | joelbaby | |
| 15:35 | joelbaby | hrw .. so we could put grub on the SD card, and then use that to boot into another OS on a USB or eSATA disk? |
| 15:35 | hrw | joelbaby: why android on tv? because then you can install/play games, use vod services |
| 15:35 | hrw | joelbaby: yes |
| 15:36 | joelbaby | hrw .. but whatabout uEnv.txt ? would grub need to change that, and then reboot the box? |
| 15:36 | hrw | joelbaby: no. cpu loads uboot, boots to grub which loads kernel and boot |
| 15:36 | joelbaby | or would uEnv.txt remain untouched? |
| 15:37 | hrw | joelbaby: grub works as kind of overlay on top of uboot as it uses u-boot api |
| 15:37 | hrw | it was that way when last time I heard about it |
| 15:37 | joelbaby | That would be a supercool development for imx6 board i think. |
| 15:37 | Tempest_nano | I would certainly be interested |
| 15:37 | hrw | joelbaby: you can also use extlinux u-boot support to select boot options |
| 15:38 | hrw | check how fedora 21 boots |
| 15:38 | joelbaby | everyone's tired of trying to get their SD Card out of their cubox. |
| 15:38 | hrw | uboot loads /boot/extlinux/exlinux.conf which contains list of boot options |
| 15:38 | joelbaby | I'm sure my HDMI connector is now damaged from the repeated plugging/unplugging. |
| 15:39 | Tempest_nano | Tweezers would probably alleviate some of that. |
| 15:39 | joelbaby | hrw ... what I don't understand is how you can boot into another OS from an existing OS. |
| 15:40 | hrw | joelbaby: u-boot is not an os |
| 15:40 | joelbaby | yes, but grub would need an OS like linux. |
| 15:40 | hrw | joelbaby: you can use kexec |
| 15:40 | hrw | joelbaby: grub on arm uses u-boot api to get files from fs |
| 15:41 | joelbaby | sohow do i get grub for imx6? |
| 15:41 | hrw | no idea man. for me it is abomination |
| 15:41 | joelbaby | lol. |
| 15:41 | joelbaby | so what is a better solution? |
| 15:42 | hrw | extlinux support is easy enough |
| 15:42 | hrw | joelbaby: http://pastebin.com/Nwxf99mk is fedora21 boot on wandboard |
| 15:43 | hrw | ignore fact that both menu options have same name. I was lazy |
| 15:44 | joelbaby | ok, so in line 42 |
| 15:44 | joelbaby | how do you 'enter your choice' ? |
| 15:44 | joelbaby | can you use a USB keyboard? |
| 15:44 | hrw | joelbaby: depends on u-boot console support |
| 15:44 | hrw | joelbaby: I use serial console |
| 15:45 | joelbaby | yeah, so you need a console connection |
| 15:45 | joelbaby | which is not ideal |
| 15:45 | hrw | joelbaby: add graphics and usb keyboard support to your mx6 u-boot? |
| 15:45 | hrw | joelbaby: on exynos chromebook I had u-boot with screen+keyboard as console |
| 15:46 | joelbaby | @rabeeh is usb keyboard and graphics support possible inside u-boot? |
| 15:46 | jmontleon | hrw, fwiw Fedora 20 doesn't work too bad on the cubox-i. when etnaviv support for the 3.14.14 kernel materializes it should be pretty good... |
| 15:47 | jmontleon | for now, sound, fbdev, wireless, bluetooth, etc. msata, etc. all work on cubox/hummingboard |
| 15:47 | joelbaby | hrw ... i think this would be very useful to many people. We want to expirement with different o/s options, but don't want to load 10 different images on seperate SD cards. |
| 15:47 | hrw | jmontleon: I want mx6 to work as mediaplayer. for it fedora is not usable in my opinion |
| 15:48 | joelbaby | hrw best media player is geexbox. |
| 15:48 | joelbaby | if that's all you want. |
| 15:48 | joelbaby | Rudi's been doing a great job with it. |
| 15:48 | Tempest_nano | Full distros would be arch or xbian |
| 15:49 | hrw | uf. with fs/coda disabled I got kernel/modules built |
| 15:50 | Tempest_nano | Question for the group: on 3.10.30 I would run openvpn flat out and max one of the cpus, but on 3.14.14 I can never seem to manage more than %50 utilization. Is 14 that much more efficient, or is there some other effect that I am missing? |
| 15:51 | joelbaby | According to rabeeh 3.14 is much more efficient. |
| 15:54 | joelbaby | @hrw you say that's the fedora boot up, but that menu is not actually part of fedora, it's part of u-boot. |
| 15:54 | joelbaby | amirite? |
| 15:54 | hrw | joelbaby: fedora project provides u-boot image, u-boot configuration, extlinux config file for u-boot as part of official fedora images. |
| 15:57 | joelbaby | hrw: so could I compile my own imx6 u-boot image and add in USB and video support, by using the fedora project code? |
| 15:58 | joelbaby | and thus achieve multiboot glory? |
| 15:58 | hrw | joelbaby: no, we (fedora) use mainline u-boot |
| 15:59 | jmontleon | you can build your own imx6-u-boot; you can even compile a kernel to get usb and video support; multi-boot, well not sure how you'll achieve that |
| 15:59 | jmontleon | joelbaby, have a look at https://github.com/jmontleon/fedora-20-cubox-i_hb for some ideas |
| 15:59 | joelbaby | jmontleon the fedora u-boot already has multiboot. |
| 16:00 | joelbaby | but you have to make your selection via the serial console interface ... |
| 16:00 | jmontleon | i see |
| 16:00 | joelbaby | but h rw has been saying that you could theoretically just add in USB and video support into u-boot |
| 16:00 | joelbaby | which would get round that problem. |
| 16:01 | hrw | joelbaby: on mx51 powered efika mx smartbook I had it working as well |
| 16:01 | joelbaby | he pasted this boot menu previously: http://pastebin.com/Nwxf99mk |
| 16:01 | hrw | which reminds me that I should get that device back |
| 16:02 | jmontleon | https://github.com/jmontleon/fedora-20-cubox-i_hb#building-your-own-u-boot might be what you're looking for. Using that on hummingboard/Cubox-i u-boot has working video and USB |
| 16:04 | joelbaby | question: for a multiboot u-boot is it simply a case of having multiple entries in uEnv.txt ? |
| 16:06 | hrw | joelbaby: depends which way of selecting boot you prefer |
| 16:06 | joelbaby | how about : something simple that doesn't screw up :) |
| 16:06 | hrw | joelbaby: if you want to enter u-boot and then 'run android' then that's the way. |
| 16:07 | joelbaby | just a simple pick list, click up and down arrows, press enter. |
| 16:07 | hrw | joelbaby: if you want something like fedora does (simple, easy, hard to break) then uEnv.txt + exlinux.conf |
| 16:08 | hrw | joelbaby: ~7 years ago openmoko guys wrote menu support for u-boot which was up/down/enter - never got merged |
| 16:10 | joelbaby | the picture on the right is just what i want: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/U-Boot |
| 16:11 | hrw | joelbaby: never got merged. was fun to use |
| 16:11 | hrw | joelbaby: openmoko had just 2 keys. so one was Down and second Enter |
| 16:11 | joelbaby | right , but we could remerge it into rabeeh's u-boot |
| 16:11 | hrw | no |
| 16:12 | joelbaby | dammit |
| 16:12 | joelbaby | are you the guy who likes to say no? |
| 16:12 | joelbaby | destroying my hopes and dreams |
| 16:12 | jmontleon | what i've been doing in the rpms i've been building for f20 is just linking zImage to vmilinuz-{kverrel}; uEnv.txt just has bootfile=zImage. when booting 'zImage' it selects the proper dtb for the device; if you want to boot an older/different kernel it just requires changing the link. But obviously that requires (re)booting. Anyway, I don't think you can just have two bootfile entries? and you might be able to have loading other files load the corr |
| 16:12 | jmontleon | ect dtb when booting but you'd have to play with the u-boot env possibly |
| 16:13 | jmontleon | maybe not no. but headache, probably. |
| 16:13 | jmontleon | as to whether it's possible to get it working that is |
| 16:15 | jmontleon | autobootfdt=echo Booting ${boot_file}; if test ${boot_file} = zImage; then bootz ${loadaddr} - ${fdt_addr}; else bootm ${loadaddr} - ${fdt_addr}; fi; |
| 16:15 | jmontleon | so that could be changed pretty easily |
| 16:16 | joelbaby | jmontleon: could the u-boot on imx6 be given usb keyboard and video support? |
| 16:17 | joelbaby | that would allow a menu to display on the screen, and interaction |
| 16:17 | jmontleon | joelbaby, are you asking for cubox-i? I already told you https://github.com/jmontleon/fedora-20-cubox-i_hb#building-your-own-u-boot |
| 16:17 | jmontleon | my keyboard and tv work fine with that on cubox-i and hummingbaoard |
| 16:18 | jmontleon | i can interrupt u-boot and play around all i want before or instead of booting |
| 16:18 | joelbaby | so you can work inside the u-boot console via your TV? |
| 16:18 | jmontleon | sure |
| 16:18 | joelbaby | ok, in that case no recomilation is necessary |
| 16:18 | joelbaby | because that link is just for rabeeh's standard build. |
| 16:19 | jmontleon | right |
| 16:20 | joelbaby | in theory, all I have to do is change uEnv.txt ... |
| 16:20 | joelbaby | to give me a console screen instead of booting a zImage. |
| 16:22 | hrw | ok. 3.14.14 booted on wandboard. fedora did not like it anyway :( |
| 16:22 | joelbaby | question: is there a way to turn on line wrapping in vi? |
| 16:29 | joelbaby | hrw at least you have a working kernel now :) |
| 16:32 | joelbaby | @jmontleon how do you interrupt your u-boot ? |
| 16:33 | joelbaby | i can interrupt u-boot and play around all i want before or instead of booting |
| 16:47 | jmontleon | i think it's press any key while it's counting down |
| 17:04 | joelbaby | @jmontleon your uEnv.txt must be different to the one in your link: https://github.com/jmontleon/fedora-20-cubox-i_hb |
| 17:04 | joelbaby | because there is no countdown, and pressing a key doesn't interrupt loading zImage. |
| 17:05 | jmontleon | joelbaby, are you sure you're using rabeeh's u-boot? |
| 17:06 | jmontleon | http://paste.fedoraproject.org/129347/38401140/ |
| 17:06 | jmontleon | that's my uEnv.txt |
| 17:06 | jmontleon | I get a 3 second count down |
| 17:15 | hrw | found first place where patch would be handy |
| 17:16 | hrw | 3.14.14 kernel cannot be build only for quad. solo support is required |
| 17:18 | joelbaby | can't you just delete the .dtb file you don't need? |
| 17:19 | hrw | joelbaby: sure, but why not try random options sometimes? |
| 17:34 | raz0r | hi all can someone help me with this error |

| 17:44 | hrw | finally |
| 17:45 | joelbaby | raz0r there is an rtl8187 driver in 3.14.14, not sure about 3.10.30 |
| 17:45 | raz0r | many thanks but im using kali linux |
| 17:45 | raz0r | on the cuibox-i4 pro |
| 17:46 | raz0r | the built in wifi works but i want to add my ALFA usb |
| 17:46 | hrw | now, which modules to load to get graphics ;D |
| 17:46 | raz0r | i have also tried to install the new kernal without much luck |
| 17:47 | joelbaby | hrw ... did you try that .config i pasted earlier? |
| 17:47 | raz0r | i have been searching for hours trying to get this running |
| 17:47 | hrw | joelbaby: no, used fedora one |
| 17:47 | hrw | joelbaby: missed yours |
| 17:47 | joelbaby | because fedora ... just works? |
| 17:47 | raz0r | i have been reading its something to do with a symlink |
| 17:48 | hrw | joelbaby: no, because I do not want to check which generic options I missed in cubox one so could not login |
| 17:49 | raz0r | joelbaby how would i update the kernal cos i keep getting errors using this link |
| 17:49 | raz0r | http://pevma.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/upgrading-debian-wheezys-kernel.html |
| 17:49 | joelbaby | hrw take a look at this .config: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/mxd21n9i11nkh3y/AABixiwrXweespeTqGBvLuCsa?dl=0 |

| 17:54 | raz0r | right , joelbay if i was to edit this script https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-arm-build-scripts/blob/master/cubox-i.sh and change the kernal to this https://github.com/linux4kix/linux-linaro-stable-mx6/ would it work |
| 17:55 | raz0r | line number 173 ?? |
| 17:56 | joelbaby | that script probably does too much. it seems to build the SD card from scratch. |
| 17:57 | joelbaby | but all you wnat is a new kernel? |
| 17:57 | raz0r | all i need to do is get my ALFA card working im not to bothered about the kernel |
| 17:57 | joelbaby | so if you know where to put zImage files |
| 17:58 | joelbaby | well you just need to get an rtl8187 driver. |
| 17:58 | raz0r | i have built this image and all is fine its over 7GB but just wanted my card to work |
| 17:58 | joelbaby | figure out if there is one in your 3.10.30 build. it probably is in there. |
| 17:59 | raz0r | joelbaby if i was to change line number 173 on that script would it work ?? |
| 18:00 | raz0r | yep thats all i need joelbaby |
| 18:00 | joelbaby | probably : you need to git clone https://github.com/linux4kix/linux-linaro-stable-mx6.git -b linux-linaro-lsk-v3.14-mx6 |
| 18:00 | raz0r | hmmmm |
| 18:00 | raz0r | ok cool |
| 18:00 | raz0r | ill try that now |
| 18:00 | joelbaby | but why not just search for a driver .. first |
| 18:00 | raz0r | i have m8 |
| 18:01 | raz0r | found the driver |
| 18:01 | joelbaby | did you do find -name rtl8187 |
| 18:01 | raz0r | but gettting this error when installing |
| 18:01 | joelbaby | when doing make? |
| 18:01 | raz0r | make: *** /lib/modules/3.10.30/build: No such file or directory. Stop. |
| 18:01 | joelbaby | are you cross compiling? |
| 18:01 | raz0r | not sure if im honest |
| 18:02 | joelbaby | try these 2 commands, then make |
| 18:02 | joelbaby | export ARCH=arm |
| 18:02 | joelbaby | export CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi- |
| 18:03 | raz0r | ok ill try right now thanks for your help by the way |
| 18:03 | raz0r | nope still the same |
| 18:04 | raz0r | if i get the new kernal install this would have the driver correct ? |
| 18:06 | joelbaby | dunno. because you said your other kernel had the driver too. |
| 18:07 | hrw | have a nice day guys and thanks for help |
| 18:07 | raz0r | no it doesnt have the driver rtl8187 |
| 18:07 | raz0r | 3.10.30 |
| 18:07 | joelbaby | hrw did it work? |
| 18:07 | hrw | joelbaby: your config? not tried yet |
| 18:08 | joelbaby | ok |
| 18:09 | joelbaby | raz0r if you go to the directory where you have put your kernel source code |
| 18:09 | joelbaby | what happens if you type find -name rtl8187 |
| 18:11 | raz0r | one sec ill have a look |
| 18:12 | raz0r | ./linux-headers-3.14-kali1-armmp-lpae/include/config/rtl8187 ./linux-headers-3.10.30.0-1-linaro-lsk-vexpress/drivers/net/wireless/rtl818x/rtl8187 ./linux-3.14/drivers/net/wireless/rtl818x/rtl8187 ./linux-headers-3.14-kali1-armmp/include/config/rtl8187 |
| 18:12 | raz0r | i tried to install 3.14 and that didnt work |
| 18:37 | raz0r | joelbaby |
| 18:38 | raz0r | if i was to change line number 173 |
| 18:38 | raz0r | git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/SolidRun/linux-linaro-stable-mx6.git ${basedir}/kernel |
| 18:38 | raz0r | to this |
| 18:38 | raz0r | git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/linux4kix/linux-linaro-stable-mx6.git ${basedir}/kernel |
| 18:39 | raz0r | would this work ?? |
| 18:40 | joelbaby | i think you would have to specify $basedir somewhere |
| 18:40 | joelbaby | to grab the correct branch |
| 18:40 | joelbaby | see the -b in my command above. |
| 18:41 | joelbaby | doesn't your cubox already have built in wifi? |
| 18:41 | raz0r | yea i did notice that |
| 18:41 | raz0r | yea its got built in wifi |
| 18:41 | joelbaby | so why not use that? |
| 18:41 | raz0r | but i want it for packet injection |
| 18:42 | raz0r | take a look here |
| 18:42 | raz0r | https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-arm-build-scripts/blob/master/cubox-i.sh |
| 18:42 | raz0r | line number 171 |
| 18:42 | joelbaby | i dunno. |
| 18:42 | raz0r | to 183 |
| 18:42 | raz0r | what would i need to change there |
| 18:42 | joelbaby | back in the day when I was hacking we'd try to run crypt.h on /etc/passwd all day long. |
| 18:43 | raz0r | iv been hacking for years now lol |
| 18:45 | joelbaby | in line 173 you probably need to include the stuff about -b xxxx |
| 18:45 | joelbaby | but if you have been hacking for years, you'd know how to use /bin/sh ? |
| 18:46 | raz0r | true |
| 18:47 | joelbaby | what are hackers called who run other people's scripts? |
| 18:47 | raz0r | lol |
| 18:47 | raz0r | no not a script likkie |
| 18:47 | raz0r | kiddie |
| 18:49 | raz0r | git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/linux4kix/linux-linaro-stable-mx6.git -b linux-linaro-lsk-v3.14-mx6 ${basedir}/kernel |
| 18:49 | raz0r | ?? |
| 18:49 | raz0r | just need a little help :( |

| 19:10 | balrog | Does the i4pro use the BCM4329 wifi chip? |
| 19:21 | joelbaby | http://www.solid-run.com/community/topic37.html#p226 |
| 19:48 | metrem | hi all, i have build my sd card with a 3.14 kernel and debootstrap of debian wheezy armhf and install xbmc |
| 19:49 | rabeeh | metrem: nice !!! |
| 19:49 | metrem | but xbmc run slowly, anybody was been at this point ? anybody can purpose some way |
| 19:50 | rabeeh | you need to build it in a special way |
| 19:50 | metrem | *offer some way |
| 19:50 | rabeeh | you need to configure it to use opengl es |
| 19:50 | metrem | thanks rabeeh, have you a link ? |
| 19:50 | rabeeh | i suggest for you to search for xbian repos and how they configure it |
| 19:51 | metrem | ok i check that |
| 19:51 | rabeeh | https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian-package-xbmc |
| 19:51 | rabeeh | that might be helpful |
| 19:52 | metrem | i have also see imx6-xbmc repo, what do you thinks about that ? |
| 19:52 | metrem | ok, i will try to build this repo |
| 20:21 | R0nd | wow, building kernel on the cubox takes some time :) |
| 20:28 | metrem | not on the cubox, i have use debootstrap on a wheezy virtual machine |
| 20:28 | metrem | i have a script now for doing that with a new fresh install of wheezy on a VM |
| 20:28 | metrem | if you want i can share |
| 20:38 | R0nd | that could come in handy, metrem |
| 21:07 | rabeeh | metrem: i was wondering if it makes sense getting debian packages as ppa on launchpad |
| 21:18 | shadeslaye | 21:18 * shadeslayer points out that having things on Launchpad would be very awesome |
| 21:18 | shadeslayer | plus, they have virtualized armhf builders for PPA's now |
| 21:19 | rabeeh | we would contribute for that farm if needed too |
| 21:20 | rabeeh | but we need maintainers folks... you know that it's not going to build itself :) |
| 21:20 | rabeeh | any volunteers? some debian packagers that are willing to create a commando team to get it? |
| 21:20 | rabeeh | i will be part of the team for sure ! |
| 21:27 | rabeeh | https://launchpad.net/builders/ |
| 21:27 | rabeeh | queue looks pretty empty |
| 21:55 | metrem | http://pastebin.com/rgKn4kar |
| 22:02 | metrem | rabeeh : i don't understand exactly what you ask about the farm (i have a bad english) can you try to explain differently? |
| 22:04 | rabeeh | metrem: the idea is having debian packages maintained at launchpad as ppa |
| 22:05 | rabeeh | the build farm are computers that are able to build debian source packages and generate debian binary packages |
| 22:05 | rabeeh | when gathering a bunch of those debian packages together then you can create a repository |
| 22:06 | rabeeh | then for instance instead cross compiling the kernel as you are doing in your script; you would just apt-get install from that repository |
| 22:06 | rabeeh | what's what mk01/anaconda and others here are doing in xbian |
| 22:08 | metrem | ok |
| 22:11 | metrem | so, i will send you my script if my build with xbmc work ^^ |
| 22:15 | metrem | but i don't understand why the only official img of debian is based on jessie O_o |
| 22:16 | rabeeh | metrem: what do you mean? |
| 22:16 | rabeeh | what's wrong with jessie? |
| 22:17 | kgp | :) working hard tonight? |
| 22:17 | rabeeh | kgp: hey |
| 22:17 | rabeeh | well.. trying to gather contributors around launchpad / ppa |
| 22:18 | rabeeh | i'v been trying to work with xbian; it works pretty good |
| 22:18 | metrem | jessie have some package missing and it's not a good way for a system in production |
| 22:18 | rabeeh | but it's not what most deb packagers are used to |
| 22:18 | rabeeh | wheezy otoh is too old |
| 22:18 | rabeeh | metrem: are you referring to systemd issues? |
| 22:23 | metrem | rabeeh : no just, if i want to create some box for my clients, i will be affraid to go with a "unstable" version |
| 22:23 | metrem | just see https://bugs.debian.org/release-critical/ |
| 22:25 | shadeslayer | rabeeh: they don't accept 3rd party builders |
| 22:25 | shadeslayer | rabeeh: also, with the new infra on LP, I doubt they have a dearth of build slaves |
| 22:25 | FoXMaN | rabeeh: which branch from https://github.com/linux4kix/linux-linaro-stable-mx6 should i use to get sgtl5k support in hummingboard? |
| 22:25 | shadeslayer | rabeeh: I'd be happy to help btw |
| 22:26 | shadeslayer | but I barely have any time for packaging outside work, so can offer more in terms of guidance etc |
| 22:39 | hrw | guys: where I can read about mx6 graphics related packages in 3.14.14 kernel? as "which one need to be loaded, which order etc" |
