| 09:39.44 | rellla | only diffrence is the host system |
| 09:40.09 | buZz | mainly yes |
| 09:40.47 | buZz | i pulled in some parts from FirstSteps aswell |
| 09:41.56 | rellla | all pages with kernel,uboot,rootfs,sd-card - creation should be "refactored" imho, as there are too much duplicates |
| 09:42.43 | rellla | i'll have a look at it, after my new cubie-image and raspi-images have finished later this day |
| 09:43.02 | hramrach | yeah, we have 3 debian guides now |
| 09:43.54 | buZz | maybe we should split the tutorials |
| 09:43.59 | hramrach | anyione seen boot stopping at this http://paste.debian.net/231294 |
| 09:44.42 | buZz | into those parts .. kernel/uboot/rootfs/sd-card ? |
| 09:45.07 | buZz | and pull in different methods to do each step |
| 09:46.57 | hramrach | buZz: I tried to make ma tutorial as one place I can cut&paste from |
| 09:47.11 | hramrach | and reference more detailed instructions in links |
| 09:47.30 | buZz | hmm let me see |
| 09:47.38 | rellla | yeah, that'd be my preferred way. 1) preparing hostsystem (compiler tools, git,...) 2) kernel 3) uboot 4) rootfs 6) fex 7)sd-card |
| 09:47.42 | buZz | first i heard there where 3 was when you said it lastnight |
| 09:48.29 | buZz | which is yours hramrach ? |
| 09:49.54 | rellla | and there should be some info, that the cubie IS a10, and that the difference between e.g. mele isn't that big. because the ml etc. is "flooded" by cubieboarders in a way. it think, it's not clear for most people, what cubie has to do with linux-sunxi.. |
| 09:50.24 | rellla | s/cubieboarders/new cubieboarders/ |
| 09:51.14 | buZz | yeah thats quite common, i tried to make my tutorial not really cubie specific and i think i didnt add any specific steps |

| 09:51.35 | hramrach | * BuildingOnDebian |
| 09:54.48 | buZz | hmm yes nice one hramrach |
| 09:55.24 | hramrach | the problem is that even with two tutorials already people make a third one |
| 09:55.31 | hramrach | no discoverability |
| 09:55.41 | buZz | yes we need better index pages |
| 09:56.02 | rellla | hramrach: did you build with emdebian - armhf on wheezy? |
| 09:56.03 | buZz | links to the categories |
| 09:56.38 | buZz | http://linux-sunxi.org/Category:Tutorial |
| 09:56.46 | buZz | this is a pretty good list |
| 09:56.55 | rellla | hramrach: sorry, saw the hint about missing armhf-compilers in sid ;) |
| 09:57.16 | buZz | hehe |
| 09:57.34 | buZz | seems like _every_ tutorial tries to explain you how to install a cross compiler ;) |
| 09:57.54 | hramrach | because finding a cross-compiler is non-trivial |
| 09:58.10 | hramrach | and you never know it actually compiles until you try |
| 09:59.30 | buZz | yeah but clearly we just need one description for it :P |
| 09:59.54 | buZz | * Install a [[Cross Compiler]] |
| 10:00.02 | buZz | and just keep all the info on that page |
| 10:00.20 | hramrach | the answer is distro-specific |
| 10:00.31 | hramrach | emdebian/linaro/... |
| 10:01.11 | rellla | you search for your distro on [[Cross Compiler]] - would be a good way |
| 10:01.36 | buZz | yeah, that way we keep information more centralized |
| 10:01.50 | rellla | the same with the other parts - kernel, uboot ... |
| 10:01.55 | buZz | exactly |
| 10:02.47 | hramrach | the problem with that is that when you want to build a rootfs you need top open half-dozen pages and search for your distro-specific info on each |
| 10:03.10 | buZz | just 6? i would be happy :) |
| 10:03.56 | hramrach | crosscompiler, u-boot, kernel, rootfs, putting rootfs to media |
| 10:04.02 | rellla | but no duplicates this way. |
| 10:04.34 | hramrach | and then something for setting up the system once installed |
| 10:04.34 | buZz | i told someone yesterday but not sure, can you use debootstrap to make ubuntu rootfs aswell? |
| 10:04.46 | hramrach | you can |
| 10:04.47 | rellla | maybe ONE distro-specific site linking to anchors in the parts-specific page is useful |
| 10:04.53 | hramrach | why would you not? |
| 10:04.59 | rellla | as a starting point |
| 10:05.00 | buZz | no idea, never did it |
| 10:11.01 | hramrach | torindel: with removing the journal the kernel cannot mount the partition and reboots |

| 10:23.01 | hramrach | same with tune2fs |

| 10:58.23 | torindel | hramrach: for me it doesnt lockup and i use ext4 with journaling |
| 10:58.57 | torindel | as for removing journal you have to do it on unmounted partition |
| 11:00.16 | torindel | hramrach: also keep in mind to not touch nanda from linux |
| 11:00.28 | hramrach | torindel: that's what I do |
| 11:00.33 | torindel | as it usually is badly sized |
| 11:00.45 | torindel | and fucksorzup next partition |
| 11:00.52 | torindel | while doing so |
| 11:01.03 | hramrach | but either fsck or tune2fs somehow does not fully work |
| 11:01.12 | torindel | (i.e. linux report its size as 128MB after mounting and partition size is 16MB) |
| 11:01.20 | hramrach | see the paste where it reports the same error after supposedly fixing it |
| 11:01.50 | hramrach | I have no next partiion |
| 11:02.10 | hramrach | so if it fuxorzap the journal is off the end of the nand |

| 12:19.03 | specing | Neither did Linux 20 years ago |
| 12:19.09 | hramrach | it did |
| 12:19.14 | specing | no it didn't |
| 12:19.16 | hramrach | was the only free unix back then |
| 12:19.19 | specing | false |
| 12:19.23 | buZz | no it wasnt |
| 12:19.33 | hramrach | BSD was not really ready |
| 12:19.36 | buZz | there were several projects like this |
| 12:19.40 | buZz | linux wasnt ready either |
| 12:19.46 | hramrach | some lawyer work |
| 12:19.47 | buZz | none of them were 'ready' |
| 12:19.57 | hramrach | then he was the first to deliver results |
| 12:19.59 | buZz | they had to be matured |
| 12:20.15 | hramrach | or happened to be best known at the time |
| 12:20.18 | buZz | _all these developers_ picked linux to pour their souls in |
| 12:20.19 | hramrach | one had to be it |
| 12:20.39 | buZz | it has never been a one person job |
| 12:21.13 | hramrach | when there are N project doeing the same thing one has to come first at some point |
| 12:21.37 | hramrach | so if you say that there were N-1 projects like Linux nobody knows about by now |
| 12:21.41 | hramrach | they were just slower |
| 12:22.34 | hramrach | some people say thta Linus is not that much of a coder as he is project manager |
| 12:22.41 | hramrach | that might be the reason |
| 12:23.16 | specing | Actually Linux succedded mostly because of two reasons: |
| 12:23.38 | specing | 1) It had a very well defined project path and a performance-oriented design |
| 12:24.07 | specing | 2) It was GPL'd meaning contributions to it would not get stolen by some money-eating corporation |
| 12:24.20 | specing | <PROTECTED> |
| 12:25.09 | specing | both BSDs and MINIX are covered by the BSD license |
| 12:25.16 | hramrach | also a factor is that project that delivers half a solution a year eiarlier gets contributors and fame |
| 12:25.27 | specing | And I would think thrice before contributing to such projects |
| 12:25.35 | hramrach | a project that delivers whole solution a year later is dead |
| 12:26.00 | hramrach | and you ahve to live with half a solution |
| 12:26.09 | specing | Actually even GPL has a problem |
| 12:26.20 | specing | Affero GPL is the best in my opinion |
| 12:26.43 | hramrach | Affero GPL is rather asinine license |
| 12:27.02 | hramrach | it covers so much that software licensed under those terms is nearly unusable |
| 12:27.09 | specing | False |
| 12:27.28 | specing | affero is GPL + if you use it on a server you have to release the source + modifications |
| 12:27.33 | hramrach | and it turns out GPL does not force corporations not stealing the cose |
| 12:27.41 | hramrach | see all these ARM driver blobs |
| 12:27.46 | specing | Indeed it doesen't |
| 12:27.46 | hramrach | there is aplways a way |
| 12:27.54 | specing | but it helps lawyers in doing so |
| 12:28.39 | hramrach | specing: it also covers patents. or was theat gplv3? |
| 12:28.46 | specing | Idk |
| 12:29.18 | hramrach | anyway, it's not going to work |
| 12:29.56 | hramrach | anyone can claim they ahve patented anything and in general very few can afford to challenge such claim |
| 12:30.25 | specing | Yes, but GPL gives you the option to fight back, BSD doesen't |
| 12:30.27 | hramrach | so in general you are screwed |
| 12:30.41 | hramrach | neither does |

| 13:05.29 | specing | and while we have piratenpartei members in the EU parliament I doubt such a law will be passed |
| 13:06.23 | hramrach | it's irrelevalnt what the law says since in practice sw patents are granted and enforced |
| 13:06.26 | specing | Also the mpeg stuff will be reverse-engineered anyway |
| 13:06.53 | hramrach | it cannot be for rpi |
| 13:07.00 | specing | Why not? |
| 13:07.00 | hramrach | not without hardware hacks |
| 13:07.07 | hramrach | it's like PS3 was |

| 13:07.59 | specing | there you go |
| 13:08.00 | hramrach | plus reverse-engineering does not help you |
| 13:08.13 | hramrach | the patent license is still required |

| 15:38.07 | rm | will be a surprise if they all turn out to be A10s :) |
| 15:38.19 | WarheadsSE | but. I don't supply & enable the mali drivers (thus x11) by default |
| 15:38.47 | rm | afaik it kind of doesn't |
| 15:38.57 | rm | ah, "staging" |
| 15:39.09 | rm | mkay |
| 15:39.37 | WarheadsSE | yeah, its built from the stage/sunxi-3.0 branch instead of the sunxi-3.0 branch |
| 15:42.51 | adibek | i try the latest u-boot , but without serial console is imposible to build |
| 15:44.02 | adibek | i will build the serial this week and test some more , but meybe some one did the worknig image for sdcard |
| 15:50.52 | WarheadsSE | seek phelbore in #archlinux-arm .. he had one until it had a capacitor failure and melted the case. |
| 15:53.43 | adibek | Thx , there are really small diferences betwen a10, a10s, a13 and A10s is some like A10 and almost like A13 :) |

| 16:21.58 | jochensp | ok, thanks, was hoping to debug my sound problems that way |
| 16:24.03 | buZz | which sound problems, on what platform? |
| 16:25.55 | jochensp | mini xplus overdriven sound on analog output |
| 16:26.26 | jochensp | sound is ok when I set volume to 50%, distorted above |
| 16:33.51 | jochensp | buZz: I've tried different images from the net, compiled from git, used the fex files from the device, all without luck, do you have any suggestion? |
| 16:34.18 | jochensp | wanted to try the Android kernel, because sound is working on that one |
| 16:35.42 | buZz | i doubt you could fix that with kernel or fex |
| 16:35.56 | buZz | seems the alsa driver just outputs too high a volume |
| 16:36.01 | buZz | maybe the hardware is unmatched |
| 16:36.07 | buZz | do you have the same problem on HDMI? |
| 16:36.28 | buZz | maybe you should ask on miniand forums? |
| 16:36.33 | buZz | as they sell it aswell; https://www.miniand.com/products/Mini%C2%A0Xplus%20TV%20Box%20H24 |
| 16:36.48 | jochensp | hdmi doesn't work either |
| 16:37.00 | buZz | 'doesnt work' ? |
| 16:37.03 | buZz | or overdriven? |
| 16:37.09 | jochensp | no output |
| 16:37.53 | buZz | did you check aplay -l |
| 16:38.01 | buZz | usually A10 devices have _two_ alsa devices |
| 16:38.06 | buZz | one for analog, one for hdmi |
| 16:38.13 | buZz | and doesnt autoselect the proper one in hardware |
| 16:39.05 | jochensp | how can I switch it? |
| 16:39.15 | buZz | depends on software |
| 16:39.25 | buZz | mplayer -ao alsa:device=hw=1.0 bla.mp4 |
| 16:39.28 | buZz | for mplayer |
| 16:44.19 | jochensp | I don't have a hdmi device over here to test, will try tomorrow |
| 16:44.27 | jochensp | any other idea? |
| 16:45.03 | buZz | ehr, keep volume at 50% sounds pretty wise? :D |
| 16:45.29 | jochensp | hehe, then it's not loud enough ;) |
| 16:46.10 | WarheadsSE | Yeah, just set master to 50% and adjust as necessary |
| 16:46.19 | WarheadsSE | get an amp. |
| 16:47.49 | jochensp | I have an amp behind it, but I need to reset the volume every time when I attach something else |
| 16:48.20 | jochensp | so it would be great if we could make it work as in Android |

| 17:26.53 | buZz | well, that the amplifier on the circuit is not matched to the output of the chip |
| 17:27.48 | jochensp | but then it should give normal sound level on 50%, or? |
