| [13:24] <hrw> nope | |
| [13:25] <persia> Where's the first 5 minutes of time come from? | |
| [13:26] <hrw> waiting in uboot | |
| [13:26] <hrw> probably | |
| [13:26] <persia> ouch! | |
| [13:26] <persia> Or did you have to do something manually in uboot (it's less painful if waiting on us slow humans) | |
| [13:27] <hrw> I took card out, wrote lucid on it, pasted content of boot.scr+serial into uboot and booted | |
| [13:29] <persia> Ah, OK. Yeah, I can see how that takes 300 seconds :) | |
| [13:30] <hrw> writing card was 242s | |

| [15:13] <ogra> anyway /me needs a break ... back soon | |
| [15:16] <hrw> shepherd... for me it is sharp zaurus c750 ;D | |
| [15:25] <persia> Indeed. | |
| [15:26] <hrw> but c7x0 are not ubuntu targets - armv5te | |
| [15:28] <persia> Omegamoon got Jaunty working, but yeah, these days I recommend installing Debian on those. | |
| [15:28] <persia> Well, maybe not on a 750 :) | |
| [15:36] <hrw> 750 is enough as long as you have rootfs on sd | |
| [15:36] <hrw> hi prpplague | |
| [15:38] <prpplague> hrw: hey bud | |
| [15:38] <prpplague> davidm: ping | |
| [15:39] <davidm> prpplague, hello, I'm sort of here | |
| [15:39] <davidm> traveling again | |
| [15:39] <prpplague> davidm: ahh np, i wanted to get some feedback from you when you have some time | |
| [15:40] <davidm> if I can, also I have a question for you, the TinCan Tools Beagle board parts. Are the Ethernet parts stable? | |
| [15:40] <prpplague> davidm: give me a shout when you'd have about 20 minutes or so | |
| [15:41] <prpplague> davidm: stable in what way? software, hardware, availibility? | |
| [15:41] <davidm> stable in terms of the 10/100 part working solidly and not causing kernel panics or losing connectivity? | |
| [15:42] <davidm> Might have some folks buying some | |
| [15:42] <prpplague> davidm: i have not heard of any issues, the micrel folks have run a number of tests on the zippy2 and we've run iperf and burning tests | |
| [15:43] <prpplague> davidm: we've sold about 400 zippy2 boards and i've not had any negative feedback | |
| [15:43] <davidm> prpplague, thanks, I'll pass that on | |
| [15:43] <prpplague> davidm: you can purchase the zippy2's via digikey as well | |
| [15:43] <prpplague> davidm: you were at the Nice meeting right? | |
| [15:43] <davidm> prpplague, cool, thanks | |
| [15:43] <davidm> Yes | |
| [15:43] <davidm> I was indeed | |
| [15:44] <cwillu_at_work> what does the rtc with battery do? is it just supplying the battery to the tps, or is it a different device? | |
| [15:45] <cwillu_at_work> on the zipp2 | |
| [15:45] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: seperate RTC device connected via i2c | |
| [15:46] <cwillu_at_work> ... why? | |
| [15:46] <persia> prpplague: Does it have a battery? | |
| [15:47] * persia reads again | |
| [15:47] <cwillu_at_work> I guess it's a replaceable battery as opposed to the one you have to solder onto the beagle | |
| [15:47] <persia> Hurray! It doesn't fail to boot with the current filesystems :) | |
| [15:47] <prpplague> persia: yes | |
| [15:47] <cwillu_at_work> but if you're soldering things on anyway | |
| [15:48] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: ?? | |
| [15:48] <cwillu_at_work> prpplague, to put the expansion header onto the beagle | |
| [15:48] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: ahh indeed | |
| [15:53] <cwillu_at_work> main difference between zippy and zippy2 is the 100mbit? | |
| [15:57] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: yea | |
| [15:58] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: the zippy uses the enc28j60 from microchip and the zippy2 uses a micrel part | |
| === JamieBen1ett is now known as JamieBennett | |
| [16:01] * cwillu_at_work considers possibilities | |
| [16:01] <cwillu_at_work> possibilities such as btrfs raid across two mmc cards :p | |
| [16:03] <prpplague> sata seems to be an item i am getting alot of requests for | |
| [16:04] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: we also have the trainer board if you are into hacking hardware - http://www.elinux.org/BeagleBoard_Trainer | |
| [16:23] <cwillu_at_work> sata would be nice, although I don't have much use for it myself | |
| [16:27] <cwillu_at_work> prpplague, is it sensitive to the length of the connection? I.e., could I run a two inch ribbon cable between beagle and zippy2? | |
| [16:27] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: yea you could | |
| [16:28] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: or even use some right angle connectors | |
| [16:28] <cwillu_at_work> hmm, I guess, ya | |
| [16:28] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: no more than about 6 to 8 inches | |
| [16:30] <hrw> prpplague: can zippy2 and trainer be stacked on one bb? | |
| [16:30] <prpplague> hrw: not currently | |
| [16:31] <prpplague> hrw: we are looking at doing a board so you can mount them side by side | |
| === asac_ is now known as asac | |
| [16:58] <cwillu_at_work> prpplague, too bad the connector is already soldered onto the zippy2 | |
| [16:59] <cwillu_at_work> prpplague, specifically, keeping the right-angle connectors on top would recover significant vertical clearance | |
| [17:38] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: we have a small right angle pcb we use inhouse for some testing | |
| [17:38] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: we had considered making it available on the web site | |
| [17:39] <cwillu_at_work> I don't follow | |
| [17:39] <cwillu_at_work> like _||__[]_ ? | |
| [17:41] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: yea | |
| [17:41] <cwillu_at_work> okay, you missed my point :) | |
| [17:41] <cwillu_at_work> I want the connectors on the populated sides of both boards, so that I can have them sitting lower in their cases :) | |
| [17:43] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: ahh | |
| [17:43] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: i follow | |
| [17:44] <prpplague> cwillu_at_work: that could be done with a small board | |

| [17:46] <Vazz> hello, i've got a question: how to build rootfs of debian squeeze from scratch if I've got fedora 12 on my desktop now? | |
| [17:46] <cwillu_at_work> Vazz, debootstrap is meant to do that | |
| [17:46] <cwillu_at_work> rootstock is basically a wrapper around it to make things easier | |
| [17:47] <ogra> rootstock wont work on fedora | |
| [17:47] <cwillu_at_work> it will with the right things in the right places | |
| [17:47] <persia> debootstrap will. | |
| [17:47] <ogra> it has dependencies fedora wont fulfill | |
| [17:47] <Vazz> so only debootstrap method? | |
| [17:48] <ogra> right, rather take the harder part and use debootstrap | |
| [17:48] <Vazz> yum install debootstrap? : D | |
| [17:48] <ogra> its less work to bring up on fedora but more work setting up the system afterwards | |
| [17:52] <Vazz> hmm i think there's no script for squeeze in debootstrap | |
| [17:55] <Vazz> can i install squeeze with it? | |
| [17:57] <prpplague> orbarron: has nicolas been over by your desk already? | |
| [17:58] <orbarron> prpplague: not yet but should stop by later today... | |
| [17:58] <prpplague> orbarron: let me know if he stops over there | |
| [18:14] <Vazz> i've downloaded new version of debootstrap from webpage, it downloaded packages...then W: Failure trying to run: chroot /home/arek/d_db mount -t proc proc /proc | |
| [18:15] <Vazz> any advices? | |
| [18:20] <cwillu_at_work> you'll have to --foreign --arch-armel | |
| [18:20] <cwillu_at_work> otherwise it'll try to use arm binaries to install the system on your very-much-not-an-arm system | |
| [18:21] <cwillu_at_work> then on first boot you'll do a debootstrap --second-stage | |
| [18:21] <Vazz> thx | |
| [18:23] <Vazz> so now i have to boot it on my arm devce and debootstrap --second-strage? | |
| [18:24] <cwillu_at_work> yes; probably/may need to boot it with an explicit init=/bin/bash | |
| [18:33] <Vazz> "debug rootdelay=2 init=/bin/bash root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 fbcon=rotate:1 mem=64M@0xa0000000 mem=64M@0xb0000000" | |
| [18:34] <Vazz> thats part of my startup.txt | |
| [18:34] <Vazz> and it's saying that 'unable to open initial console' then kernel panic | |
| [18:41] <cwillu_at_work> use "rootwait" instead of "rootdelay=2"; try dropping the fbcon bit, not sure why you'd need that | |
| [18:41] <cwillu_at_work> might need to specify "console=ttyS2,115200n8" or somesuch | |
| [18:42] <Vazz> fbcon rotates my screen : ) | |
| [18:42] <cwillu_at_work> what hardware is this on? | |
| [18:43] <Vazz> toshiba g900 | |
| [18:43] <cwillu_at_work> can't help you there then :p | |
| [18:44] <cwillu_at_work> but you'll probably have to muck with the console | |
| [18:44] <Vazz> : / | |
| [18:47] <Vazz> with rootwait same thing like before | |
| [18:47] <cwillu_at_work> yes, that's just a "doing the right thing" thing, not to fix your problem | |
| [18:47] <cwillu_at_work> rootdelay=2 is a hack, rootwait is the fix | |
| [18:50] <Vazz> hmm | |
| [18:51] <cwillu_at_work> and neither is related to your current problem :p | |
| [18:52] <Vazz> thats not good :D | |

| [21:01] <inhand1> In trying to run Ubuntu ARM NetInstall on a BeagleBoard, USB does not seem to be working. Neither OTG nor HOST. Without mouse or keyboard, it is a little tough to click the OK button. Is this a bug in the kernel? | |
| [21:02] * sveinse is wondering if Beagleboard has the TI feature in which it requires a HUB to do USB1.1... | |
| [21:02] <sveinse> Try connecting via a HUB and see if you get kbd+mouse then | |
| [21:03] <sveinse> I don't know id that's the case, but I'd give it a go | |
| [21:03] <inhand1> I am using a powered hub. | |
| [21:04] <sveinse> inhand1: Sorry then, I don't know. Best of luck | |
| [21:05] <sveinse> Uhm. Do you know if the HUB is 1.1 or 2.0? | |
| [21:05] <inhand1> it is 2.0 | |
