[09:19] <nimesh_accenture> I'm trying to execute a binary built for android on ubuntu. As expected it didn't work :p . is there a difference in the ELF ? or the ABI? or what is different ? as both are built on the same linux kernel , but i guess a different compiler? . Ubuntu is chrooted from android. what do i do to make this work?
[09:20] <twb> Um, aren't android apps written in java?
[09:20] <twb> What does file(1) say about the binary you're trying to run?
[09:25] <xranby> nimesh_accenture: android uses a different glibc Bionic libc
[09:27] <angeloc> rsalveti: have you read my email about rootstock?
[12:09] <parin> i want to put my own boot up image instead of 2 penguins and Ubuntu splash screen. Does anybody know how to do that?
[12:10] <twb> The penguins are coded into the kernel
[12:10] <twb> You can have them on or off, but that's about it
[12:10] <twb> The ubuntu splash stuff is called "plymouth", it is quite customizable
[12:11] <parin> so how can i turn them off
[12:11] <parin> penguins?
[12:11] <twb> Recompile your kernel
[12:11] <twb> Possibly you can turn them off from the boot prompt, but I don't know how
[12:12] <amitk> parin: you can replace the logo: http://www.articleworld.org/index.php/How_to_change_the_Linux_penguin_boot_logo
[12:13] <parin> ok thank you for help. any way I have to make custom kernel so i will disable them when i customize it and
[12:13] <twb> I stand corrected
[12:14] <parin> :)
[12:14] <parin> yes u are. thanks amitk

[14:26] <angeloc> hi guys, there is a tablet in which ubuntu can be installed to make custom development? I really don't want to write an android app!

[15:23] <vstehle> angeloc: this one maybe ? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/Archos101it?action=show&redirect=ARM%2FOMAP%2FArchos101it
[15:24] <angeloc> vstehle: wow, wonderful!
[15:24] <vstehle> angeloc: even better status page : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/TabletList (don't know how up to date this is)
[15:25] <angeloc> vstehle: i saw that but there no mention on compatibility
[15:28] <angeloc> vstehle: i'm really astonished, this one seems to be really well supported

[18:33] <parin> i am trying to change the 2 panguine boot logo as mentioned here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/blog/~shylock~-418698/patch-and-compile-kernel-with-custom-boot-logo-2497/
[18:34] <parin> how do i get linux source code ?
[18:34] <parin> i am using ubuntu 12.04 kernel 3.2.0-1412-omap4
[18:35] <parin> i burned the sd card from preintstall 12.04 ubuntu image
[18:39] <parin> should I use this? http://omappedia.org/wiki/OMAP_Ubuntu_Core#Kernel?
[18:39] <parin> please see kernel section
[18:41] <rcn-ee_> parin, 'sudo apt-get source linux-image-3.2.0-1412-omap4' should do it,
[18:46] <infinity> Forking the kernel and keeping it up to date with every SRU and security release we do (every couple of weeks) just to change a logo that you see for a few seconds, seems like a bit of a waste of time. ;)
[18:47] <infinity> (And if you don't intend to keep it up to date, then you're trading security support for a new logo, which is even worse)
[19:07] <parin> @infinity dose that mean i need to recompile kernel every time i make security update?
[19:07] <parin> so is there anyway i can just disable it?
[19:08] <parin> i mean disable the logo?....i would prefer blank screen then logo
[19:10] <rcn-ee> parin, wouldn't adding 'quiet' to the bootarg disable the logo.
[19:11] <scientes> I've changed the logo in the kernel before
[19:11] <scientes> ...its kinda small
[19:12] <scientes> parin, you jus thave to save as an ascii ppm, and then reduce to 224 colors
[19:12] <scientes> you can do this...almost...with gimp
[19:13] <parin> yes i see that but my problem is with recompilation of kernel
[19:13] <parin> i would try 'quit'
[19:13] <parin> using bootargs
[19:13] <scientes> well if you dont know how to recompile the kernel, this is not a good idea
[19:13] <scientes> *not a good reason to start
[19:13] <parin> yes thats what i have never done that though i can do that in my spare time
[19:14] <parin> but somehow i need to disable it
[19:16] <parin> @rcn-ee i am looking at /boot/boot.script and it has 'quite' already there
[20:42] <ndec> parin: logo.nologo in the bootargs should do it, see http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v3.3.6/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt#L1352
