| 11:47 | MarcusVinter | Good morning :D |
| 16:05 | hgaiser | Hi! I have an old Cubox (Marvell Armada 510 SoC) and ethernet port doesn't appear to work .. is this possibly U-Boot related? |
| 16:06 | hgaiser | And if so, is there a "factory" u-boot script for this oldy cubox? |
| 16:08 | MarcusVinter | hgaiser, try here: http://www.solid-run.com/archive/mw/index.php/CuBox_Installer |
| 16:08 | MarcusVinter | Heres a link to the actual installer script http://download.solid-run.com/pub/solidrun/cubox/installer/ |
| 16:09 | hgaiser | MarcusVinter, I tried that but it fails to obtain an ip address |
| 16:10 | MarcusVinter | and you sure its on a subnet with DHCP and the ethernet cable works? |
| 16:10 | hgaiser | Yes I am using it for other devices as well |
| 16:12 | MarcusVinter | Thats weird. I'll see if I can find a spare SD card about, I've got an original cubox here too. As well as hummingboard and some i2s :D |
| 16:12 | hgaiser | Haha quite a collection :) |
| 16:13 | MarcusVinter | I've got all sorts of boards here haha. hackberry, beaglebone, rpis, wandboard, cubieboard and some custom boards too hehe |
| 16:15 | MarcusVinter | Ive got the image here, ill just test it now. |
| 16:16 | MarcusVinter | Damn i forgot it needs serial connection |
| 16:16 | MarcusVinter | one sec. |
| 16:16 | MarcusVinter | Do you use a serial connection to connect to the installer? |
| 16:17 | hgaiser | For flashing the bootloader? Yeah and I don't have a serial cable here :) |
| 16:17 | hgaiser | No I use HDMI |
| 16:17 | hgaiser | I read somewhere that that was possible too |
| 16:18 | MarcusVinter | Maybe my cube is fudged, im getting no hdmi |
| 16:19 | hgaiser | Are you running the installer script now or some image you had ? |
| 16:19 | MarcusVinter | Installer script. |
| 16:19 | MarcusVinter | Just to see if that's the problem. |
| 16:20 | MarcusVinter | Found a serial cable, ill just see if I can get a serial connection |
| 16:20 | MarcusVinter | Are you using v4 of the script? |
| 16:21 | hgaiser | Yeah |
| 16:22 | hgaiser | I don't know if it means anything but the red light in front is always on (I got this board from my brother, I never played with it) |
| 16:22 | MarcusVinter | Yeah, the red light is a good sign :P |
| 16:25 | MarcusVinter | Hm... |
| 16:25 | hgaiser | All I get from udhcpc is "Sending discover" a few times and then the message "udhcpc (DHCP client) seem to have failed" |
| 16:26 | hgaiser | What about you, does it obtain an ip address? |
| 16:27 | MarcusVinter | Cant even boot the installer. |
| 16:28 | MarcusVinter | i think I see the problem, one sec. |
| 16:30 | MarcusVinter | If you go onther another machine on the network and wireshark, do you see the cubox broadcast? |
| 16:31 | hgaiser | hmm lets see |
| 16:33 | hgaiser | No I don't believe so |
| 16:34 | MarcusVinter | I'll see if I've got an image somewhere |
| 16:34 | MarcusVinter | one sexc |
| 16:35 | hgaiser_ | Didn't get the installer to run ? |
| 16:36 | hgaiser_ | Damn I got to go, I'll leave IRC on and read any messages when I get back later tonight .. thanks for your time anyway :) |
| 16:39 | MarcusVinter | Oh I just noticed the model Number, mines a cubox pro, thats probably why the installer didnt work. model cbp-300-p |
| 16:39 | hgaiser_ | Ah I see, there is no model number on my cubox, I guess its the first one |
| 16:40 | hgaiser_ | nothing written on it whatsoever |
| 16:40 | MarcusVinter | Not on the bottom, on the label? |
| 16:42 | hgaiser_ | No label at all :) |
| 16:43 | hgaiser_ | Maybe it was removed by my brother, not sure |
| 16:43 | NeonGreen | Anyone on here from dev team for ASOP? |
| 16:47 | MarcusVinter | hgaiser_, Gotta run, I'll try help out when I get back. I've got no Image for one of those original Cuboxes though :/ |
| 16:50 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: I got the ASOP image downloaded from the forums but I have no idea how to make any edits to it as it seems to be locked in |
| 16:50 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: I can mess with phone and tablet Android versions but this one is stumping me as it is emulated and seemingly protected for some strange reason |
| 16:52 | MarcusVinter | How did you flash the image on? |
| 16:52 | MarcusVinter | NeonGreen,^ |
| 16:55 | NeonGreen | I used Fedora 21 |
| 16:55 | NeonGreen | dd |
| 16:56 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: I used Fedora 21 distro and dd method |
| 16:57 | MarcusVinter | What changes are you trying to make? at what level? |
| 16:58 | MarcusVinter | Have you got root? |
| 16:59 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: I want to change the boot image, the background image, have another preinstalled app and I want to get that app to autostart on boot |
| 16:59 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: this is what I got: AOSPBox-i R1.2 - Android 4.4.4 KitKat |
| 17:00 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: not sure if it is rooted I haven't tried yet. I just tried with the boot image thinking it would be the easiest and that gave me problems |
| 17:03 | MarcusVinter | I'm not sure personally. I've never needed or wanted to run Android on a cubox. You cound try asking UDK in the forum thread and see what he thinks. I don't work for solid run but you can see if someone can help if you idle here for a while. |
| 17:04 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: I asked in the forum about the boot image and my thread got ignored, really disappointed in the support I got on there |
| 17:04 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: Raspeberry PI has better support for the terrible device that it is |
| 17:05 | NeonGreen | that's just shameful |
| 17:05 | MarcusVinter | Yeah the community is bigger unfortunatly from all the media coverage it got. Have you tried in the actual thread: http://www.solid-run.com/community/topic1767.html you are more likely to get a response there. |
| 17:06 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: yup, got ignored. I will repost again in a few minutes but I doubt my results will be different |
| 17:07 | MarcusVinter | I'd idle here for a while and keep asking, I'd like to help but I have no idea about Android. |
| 17:07 | MarcusVinter | What will be the main purpose of the device? |
| 17:09 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: It is for Digital Signage that's why it has to be Android since that is the only thing that has hardware accelerated graphics support |
| 17:09 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: I have not found a Linux distro with that support, Ubuntu was my first idea until I saw it has no support for that and may not even support a GUI for its ARM version |
| 17:10 | MarcusVinter | accelerated graphics support is coming soon for the Ubuntu/Debian distros, I think jnettlet is working on it now. |
| 17:11 | MarcusVinter | I think its about 3 months away though. |
| 17:13 | MarcusVinter | Oh wait, digital signage as in like shop signage? |
| 17:13 | MarcusVinter | is it video playback you require? Which ubox do you have? |
| 17:13 | MarcusVinter | cubox* |
| 17:14 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: Not enough time for me plus I am already using Android tablets to do have of the digital signage, yes it is like a player the CMS is one that controls it from the central point |
| 17:15 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: I got Hummingboard i2eX |
| 17:15 | MarcusVinter | Ahh.. I see, so you're pretty much commited. |
| 17:17 | NeonGreen | MarcusVinter: yeah I really wish ASOP wasn't locked down neither, makes no sense for a open source community |
| 17:18 | NeonGreen | No docs nothing |
| 17:18 | NeonGreen | Its an image with more images inside of it which you can't open at all |
| 17:30 | jmontleon | ping TrojanHorse |
| 17:30 | jmontleon | you're Artox? |
| 17:33 | NeonGreen | what? |
| 17:33 | NeonGreen | I am not a Trojan |
| 17:33 | NeonGreen | or Artox |
| 17:33 | NeonGreen | I am just a pissed angry person |
| 17:34 | jmontleon | and Im not talking to you. |
| 21:44 | andrewalker | hey... I have recently purchased a cuboxtv from solidrun via airmail, to be delivered in the USA... is there a way to track the shipping? |
| 21:44 | andrewalker | I haven't found any way in the website |
| 22:16 | NeonGreen | andrewalker: Put the code into USPS tracking |
| 22:19 | NeonGreen | anyone on here with knowledge about ASOP? |
