bryank: hope you read the logs and see this. I keep missing your messages because im in Ireland. Am pretty much asleep or heading that way when you message. |
| [07:39:36] |
<nhoman> |
it's not so much about getting wireless working but getting it added to the base image. |
| [07:42:49] |
<nhoman> |
I used the same ipkg approach to get wireless built and working but the whole point of OE is to get whatever package and deps transferred automaticall |
| [07:43:14] |
<nhoman> |
Your help with kdrive is very useful - for me at least.Thanks for that. |
| [07:44:08] |
<Magon> |
i have working gpe-login :-) |
| [07:44:15] |
<Magon> |
but have not gone any futher |
| [07:48:11] |
<nhoman> |
I was looking at this and making changes accordingly last night. Didnt get so far. anyway check out the link. |
| [07:48:12] |

| [07:48:36] |
<nhoman> |
Yeah i built the x-11 or gpe image last night ... really need a mouse! |
| [07:48:50] |
<nhoman> |
spent a lot of time typing on the Z2 !! Is there a damn tab button? |
| [07:49:07] |
<nhoman> |
also the repeating keys when typing fast are a nightmare |
| [07:49:22] |
<drmikecrowe> |
I started to notice the repeating keys the other day. Did something change? I dont' remember it being that way when ethicalclone first released |
| [07:49:41] |
<nhoman> |
Eventualy i read the above article and suspect that a lot of changes are needed and tried to implement the recommendations |
| [07:52:22] |
<nhoman> |
drmikecrowe: AFAIK its always been there. I don't think i have the skill to fix it |
| [07:52:45] |
<nhoman> |
seriously though is there a tab button? Might take a look at the keymap later... |
| [07:52:48] |
<Magon> |
nhoman: tab is the big button in the middle above keyboard |
| [07:53:09] |
<Magon> |
and mouse is probably not needed...i just need to load keymap to X |
| [07:53:19] |
<nhoman> |
you're joking *I SHOULD HAVE ASKED YESTERDAY* :-) |
| [07:53:42] |
<Magon> |
nhoman: sorry..i have not done this so i have not been telling it around |
| [07:53:42] |
<nhoman> |
Twould be nice to control the backlight via some key too. |
| [07:53:57] |
<nhoman> |
Magon: I should have realised is all! |
| [07:54:49] |
<Magon> |
and it smoothly connects to ad-hoc on my laptop |
| [07:57:13] |
<Magon> |
it just take ages to boot |
| [07:57:59] |
<Magon> |
i have strange problem..when i connect to it by ssh it freezes my shell |
| [07:58:28] |
<drmikecrowe> |
nhoman: does the ... key in the lower left have one? I honestly haven't looked |
| [07:58:33] |
<nhoman> |
Magon: did you manage to get the wireless packages added to the rootfs? |
| [07:58:33] |
<drmikecrowe> |
(but noticed it when I was in a shell too) |
| [07:58:45] |
<nhoman> |
drmikecrowe: that's ctrl AFAIK |
| [07:58:48] |
<Magon> |
drmikecrowe: i added it to gpe-image :-) |
| [07:58:59] |
<Magon> |
not best way but working for now |
| [07:59:50] |
<nhoman> |
drmikecrowe: Magon says the zipit button is tab. I don't know how i didn't cop! |
| [08:01:49] |
<drmikecrowe> |
lol -- I didn't even think to try that |
| [08:01:49] |
<drmikecrowe> |
lol |
| [08:01:54] |

| [08:02:20] |

magon: shell on zipit freezes or your laptops shell freezes? |
| [08:03:05] |
<Magon> |
shell on laptop |
| [08:03:17] |
<Magon> |
after i put right password i get nothing but freezed shell |

<Rossimo> |
so, i need to build wireless-image instead of base-image? |
| [13:18:16] |
<Rossimo> |
from now on? |
| [13:34:26] |
<Magon> |
Rossimo: no i simply added to base-image wireless-tools |
| [13:34:29] |
<Rossimo> |
ah |
| [13:38:19] |
<Magon> |
and we need to change xserver-kdrive....it disables xkb extension and it it useful for us |
| [13:53:44] |
<Magon> |
grr.. it disables xkb extension which is useful for us |
| [13:54:07] |
<Rossimo> |
np |
| [13:58:50] |
<bryank> |
Rossimo: you don't need to build wireless-image, but that is one way to do it |
| [13:59:24] |
<Rossimo> |
thanks. btw, where can I find a list of all the OE packages? |
| [13:59:34] |
<bryank> |
org.openembedded.dev/packages/*/*.bb |
| [13:59:36] |
<bryank> |
TONS of stuff ;-) |
| [13:59:54] |
<Rossimo> |
wow, yeah |
| [14:01:33] |
<bryank> |
i should note that not all of those are packages, but there are still lots that are |
| [14:01:46] |
<bryank> |
Magon: on xkb: does it help if you run Xfbdev +extension xkb" |
| [14:01:53] |
<Magon> |
bryank: no it is disabled at compile time |
| [14:01:57] |
<bryank> |
oh, ok, dangit |
| [14:07:56] |
<Rossimo> |
hmm, dillo might be interesting to try |
| [14:08:44] |
<bryank> |
Magon: if you edit packages/xorg-server/xserver-kdrive-common.inc and remove the --disable-xkb (and rebuild the server), does that work? |
| [14:08:53] |
<bryank> |
you'll probably have to remove a bunch of files from tmp-*/stamps/ to get it to rebuild |
| [14:09:14] |
<Magon> |
bryank: yes |
| [14:09:21] |
<Magon> |
i have it with that modification working it already |
| [14:09:24] |
<bryank> |
oh, ok -- so we should probably override that locally, somehow |
| [14:09:30] |
<Magon> |
yes..that is possiblem |
| [14:09:32] |
<Magon> |
possible |
| [14:09:50] |
<Magon> |
just need to copy it to zipitZ2BBfiles and commit to our svn |
| [14:10:01] |
<bryank> |
yeah, but do we want to keep a whole copy of the xorg-xserver tree? |
| [14:13:07] |
<bryank> |
maybe it's not a huge deal though |
| [14:13:41] |
<Magon> |
not just that one bb file i think |
| [14:13:45] |
<Magon> |
maybe some sub-folders |
| [14:13:58] |
<bryank> |
and maybe all the needed patches, but i'm not sure on that |
| [14:14:09] |
<bryank> |
i'd probably just have to do some actual testing, instead of speculating ;-) |
| [14:14:13] |
<Magon> |
yes |
| [14:14:20] |
<Magon> |
you will see if it is right in logs |
| [14:14:46] |
<bryank> |
ok, i'll try to test it out here |
| [14:23:12] |
<Rossimo> |
how big of an SD card will i need? |
| [14:27:45] |
<Magon> |
~50MB |
| [14:27:50] |
<Magon> |
50MB for gpe-image |
| [15:34:06] |
<Rossimo> |
hey, i've seem to run into a problem while building the final image |
| [15:34:07] |
<Rossimo> |
http://zipit.pastebin.com/d6086baa0 |
| [15:34:11] |
<Rossimo> |
using "bitbake base-image" |
| [15:34:14] |
<Rossimo> |
anyone happen to know why? |
| [15:39:49] |
<Rossimo> |
also, here's the output of running bitbake the second time: http://zipit.pastebin.com/d5c4f81aa |
| [15:42:53] |
<Magon> |
Rossimo: i have never seen something similar |
| [15:44:58] |

wow. i am stupid. i misspelled the OE directory for my $PATH |

hmm, how can I change from using jffs2? |
| [16:44:32] |
<Rossimo> |
apperently ubuntu 7.10 doesn't support lzo compression for jffs2 |
| [16:48:13] |
<bryank> |
Rossimo: reformat the sd card? or isn't that what you meant? |
| [16:48:42] |
<Rossimo> |
no, i'm having problems building the original base-image. |
| [16:48:46] |
<Rossimo> |
mkfs.jffs2: Unknown compressor name lzo |
| [16:48:50] |
<bryank> |
still the same issue as the pastebin from earlier? |
| [16:48:53] |
<Rossimo> |
yeah |
| [16:49:01] |
<bryank> |
i was trying to figure out what the deal might have been with that, but couldn't (at least not yet) |
| [16:49:08] |
<bryank> |
looks like IMAGE_PKGTYPE wasn't defined, or something |
| [16:49:21] |
<Rossimo> |
i thought openzipit image didn't use jffs2 |
| [16:49:39] |
<Magon> |
Rossimo: in current setting it wont build jffs2 |
| [16:51:57] |
<Rossimo> |
in line 268 of conf/bitbake.conf, i can remove the "-x lzo" setting |
| [16:52:02] |
<Rossimo> |
but i'm still running into other problems |
| [16:52:21] |
<Magon> |
Rossimo: that is not good idea |
| [16:52:26] |
<Rossimo> |
ok |
| [16:52:35] |
<Magon> |
try to find IMAGE_FSTYPES and remove jffs2 |
| [16:52:48] |
<Magon> |
there should be one in build/conf/local.conf |
| [16:53:06] |
<Rossimo> |
IMAGE_FSTYPES = "tar", no jffs2 there |
| [17:03:23] |
<bryank> |
Magon: r56 -- i removed as much as i thought i could get away with, and the resulting package does work for me, though more can probably be removed |
| [17:03:36] |
<Magon> |
bryank: ok thx |
| [17:11:13] |
<Rossimo> |
what is IMAGE_PKGTYPE suppose to be? |
| [17:11:26] |
<bryank> |
ipk, i think, but i'm not sure where it's set |
| [17:12:50] |
<Rossimo> |
well |
| [17:12:51] |
<Rossimo> |
that worked |
| [17:13:02] |
<Rossimo> |
IMAGE_PKGTYPE = "ipk" in local.conf |
| [17:13:42] |
<bryank> |
hmm -- the various package_*.bbclass files weak-set IMAGE_PKGTYPE, but nothing sets it strongly, so the local.conf thing overrode whatever OE chose |
| [17:14:14] |
<Rossimo> |
i wonder why it works for both of you, but not me |
| [17:14:14] |
<Rossimo> |
weird |
| [17:14:21] |
<bryank> |
different oe checkout times possibly? |
| [17:14:26] |
<bryank> |
but that's a pure guess |
| [17:14:32] |
<Rossimo> |
maybe |
| [17:14:43] |
<Rossimo> |
but, it wouldn't hurt to add it to svn, would it? |
| [17:14:49] |
<Rossimo> |
i don't think that setting would throw anything off |
| [17:14:53] |
<bryank> |
hopefully not, but i'm seeing if i can find out for sure |
| [17:18:38] |
<Magon> |
Rossimo: try bitbake update and oe update |
| [17:18:55] |
<Rossimo> |
i tried both of those while attempting to fix it earlier |
| [17:21:21] |
<bryank> |
does o.o.d/conf/distro/include/angstrom.inc show ANGSTROM_PKG_FORMAT as ipk? |
| [17:21:31] |
<bryank> |
and/or is that overridden in local.conf? |
| [17:22:00] |
<Rossimo> |
ANGSTROM_PKG_FORMAT ?= "ipk" |
| [17:22:12] |
<Rossimo> |
i don't know much about python, but is that some sort of conditional? |
| [17:22:17] |
<bryank> |
hmm... so as long as DISTRO="angstrom-2008.1", that should be fine |
| [17:22:27] |
<bryank> |
it's not quite python, but from the comments it looks like that's an "assign ipk if it's not assigned something else with =" |
| [17:22:34] |
<Rossimo> |
that's what i was thinking |
| [17:22:44] |
<Rossimo> |
well, i need to get to testing this image |
| [17:24:26] |
<bryank> |
might be worth double-checking that the .tar file (in tmp*/deploy/glibc/images/zipit2/) has Angstrom in the name |
| [17:24:28] |
<Magon> |
?= is bitbakes own syntax and means week assignment(if empty assing else nothing) |
| [17:24:31] |
<bryank> |
but good luck testing |
| [17:24:39] |
<bryank> |
Magon: thanks, that's what it looked like, but it's good to know for sure. |
| [17:24:44] |
<Magon> |
i have somewhere found definition |
| [17:29:09] |
<Rossimo> |
bryank: yeah, Angstrom is in the name |
| [17:29:14] |
<bryank> |
then i have no idea why it wasn't working. hmm... |

alright, it worked |

<Rossimo> |
the sd device naming convention in ubuntu is different, so i had to spend some time reworking the perl script |
| [18:08:49] |
<bryank> |
Rossimo: how is it different? /dev/disk/by-*, or something else? |
| [18:09:19] |
<Rossimo> |
/dev/mmcblk0 is the device |
| [18:09:23] |

and all partitions are /dev/mmcblk0p1 and /dev/mmcblk0p2 |
| [18:09:34] |

| [18:13:50] |
<Rossimo> |
yes |
| [18:14:09] |
<Magon> |
Rossimo: it is because it is handled diretly by mmc driver instead of scsii emulation by external reader on USB |
| [18:14:14] |
<Magon> |
it is no distro-specific |
| [18:14:21] |

it is driver specific(kernel) |

ah, i have a usb card reader, i can use that from now on |
| [18:14:23] |

Rossimo: "bitbake xserver-kdrive" builds v1.4; not sure about patches for svn |

<bryank> |
i lose direction keys too (but only on the recent builds of kdrive; it may be the enable-xkb stuff, i'm not sure) |
| [22:09:44] |
<bryank> |
... and i haven't run dillo, but i've seen there are two versions (dillo/dillo2) |
| [22:11:01] |
<bryank> |
i *think* the only difference is that dillo2 is for gtk2, but there may be other differences too |
| [22:29:24] |

ok, now i'm sure: when i re-add --disable-xkb to xserver-kdrive-common.inc and rebuild, arrow keys work in x |
