[02:44:53] *** Magon has joined #zipit
[02:47:17] <simc> hey magon, do you know how to change the zipit OE to glibc rather than uclibc?
[02:48:11] <Magon> never tried
[02:48:24] <simc> any ideas :)
[02:48:31] <Magon> but should not be that hard
[02:48:43] <Magon> let me think
[02:49:10] <simc> there is a ANGSTROM_MODE var but that already seems to be set to glibc
[02:49:37] <simc> in some .inc file
[02:51:00] <simc> distro/include/angstrom.inc
[02:51:08] <Magon> try changing target os to linux-ulibc
[02:51:26] <simc> yeah? where is that done?
[02:52:08] <Magon> OE desides what to use by this many times...i would try it but have no exact reason
[02:53:10] <Magon> linux-uclibc and try bitbake
[02:53:18] <Magon> you will se in few seconds if it worked
[02:54:24] <simc> how do you set that?
[02:54:50] <Magon> in local.conf
[02:56:47] <simc> I want to change to glibc
[02:57:04] <simc> it seems to be already set to uclibc
[02:57:54] <simc> I think it is anyway, as only uclibc binaries can run
[03:00:34] <Magon> wait...my mistake...i thougth the other way :-(
[03:01:06] <Magon> do you have in local.conf linux or linux-uclibc?
[03:01:15] <simc> linux
[03:02:13] <simc> I thought it was set to uclibc because the "hello world" programs I build in scratchbox worked when compiled with uclibc but not glibc
[03:02:16] <Magon> that should use glibc...but there is probably hack somewhere in angstrom
[03:02:33] <simc> hmm, or maybe I was wrong about that
[03:02:56] <Magon> it says what is will use in the first table when you launch bitbake
[03:03:20] <simc> if your system is build with one do you think it should be able to use statically built with the other?
[03:03:33] <Magon> and you need OABI to bet it working with build-in kernel
[03:03:37] *** FireEgl has joined #ZipIt
[03:03:44] <Magon> yes..staticaly yes
[03:03:55] <Magon> just still need OABI
[03:04:01] <Magon> and that is not exactly easy to get
[03:04:18] <Magon> there should be some patches on zipit page to get angstrom build with OABI
[03:04:32] <Magon> it have to say glibc not eglibc
[03:05:54] <simc> hmm i'll have a look and then think about it :)
[03:06:05] <Magon> sorry but i have to go
[03:06:11] <simc> i'm wondering if there is a oabi scratchbox toolchain
[03:06:19] <simc> okay thank you very much
[03:06:36] <Magon> i dont like scratchbox...so sorry
[03:06:47] <simc> :)

[16:16:45] <drmikecrowe> hey folks
[16:23:44] <g1powermac> hey drmikecrowe
[16:23:57] <drmikecrowe> what's shaking, g1powermac?
[16:24:15] <g1powermac> we really need a way to reliably replace the kernel without risk of bricking the zipit
[16:24:38] <g1powermac> been working on setting up usb gadget support, but can't do it without replacing the kernel
[16:24:54] <drmikecrowe> yeah, I now. I wish I could get that kexec worked in, but it's tough requalifying the kernel
[16:24:59] <drmikecrowe> You can't load it as a module?
[16:25:32] <g1powermac> nope, some stuff needs to be done in the kernel
[16:25:39] <drmikecrowe> dang.
[16:26:47] <g1powermac> either kexec, or knowing if and where the jtag or serial port is would really help :-)
[16:31:00] <g1powermac> but yea, got a patch for usb gadget support ready to be tested: http://www.pastebin.ca/1004089
[16:31:13] <g1powermac> but can't test it :(
