00:57.20 | Hexxeh | epic delay on my part :P |
00:57.25 | t0dbld|work | its ok |
00:57.35 | t0dbld|work | i sent ya a tweet to but im sure those get lost LOL |
00:57.47 | Hexxeh | barely checked my twitter since i got here :P |
00:57.59 | t0dbld|work | no I sent on day of org msg |
00:58.09 | Hexxeh | i mean for like, the last week :P |
00:58.13 | t0dbld|work | oh LOL |
00:58.34 | Hexxeh | usually i'd constantly have twitter open on my iMac but i'm switching between so many machines these days i forget to check |
00:58.42 | t0dbld|work | i prob got some questions coming your way soon about chromimum OS ... so well have more epic delays coming LOL |
00:58.48 | Hexxeh | sure :P |
00:59.04 | t0dbld|work | i am porting it now to these a10 tabs |
00:59.19 | t0dbld|work | now that i got gentoo and what not working ' |
00:59.37 | t0dbld|work | the sdcard test builds seems to be the hard part |
01:00.13 | t0dbld|work | Hexxeh: do you know off top of your head what it checks for at boot , that makes it "rebuilding FS" |
01:00.26 | t0dbld|work | does it jsut run a partition check ? |
01:00.32 | Hexxeh | i must admit i've not seen that |
01:00.42 | Hexxeh | but it might say something like that if it thinks it's in recovery mode |
01:00.44 | Hexxeh | what's your cmdline? |
01:01.10 | t0dbld|work | i can boot it but get stuck in that |
01:01.40 | t0dbld|work | well I booted it using my working kernel for tab , and my uboot , etc |
01:01.44 | t0dbld|work | so alot is not right |
01:01.48 | Hexxeh | sure |
01:01.54 | Hexxeh | well, take a look at /sbin/chromeos_startup |
01:01.55 | t0dbld|work | i honestly have not spent the time digging into source as i should |
01:02.05 | Hexxeh | iirc there's a branch in there for recovery mode |
01:02.12 | Hexxeh | eh, for boot related stuff you don't really need source |
01:02.14 | Hexxeh | mostly shell/upstart jobs |
01:02.51 | t0dbld|work | i jsut wasnt sure if it was checking for the 12 partitions or what was causing that |
01:03.06 | Hexxeh | you'll need to follow the same layout |
01:03.09 | Hexxeh | else it'll fall over |
01:03.26 | Hexxeh | for getting things up and running, booting it from USB is often easiest |
01:03.38 | t0dbld|work | ya dont have that option on tablet :-P |
01:03.43 | Hexxeh | no USB ports? |
01:03.59 | t0dbld|work | even the host port wont boot from it |
01:04.09 | t0dbld|work | i will boot from sd |
01:04.14 | Hexxeh | oh, SD should be okay |
01:04.23 | Hexxeh | but then it'll be mmcblk0pX right? |
01:04.37 | t0dbld|work | the arm-generic wont boot as is thoug h |
01:04.53 | t0dbld|work | i assume its either uboot - or the generic kernel hard to tell |
01:05.08 | Hexxeh | if you're seeing recovery mode |
01:05.08 | t0dbld|work | like i said need to look at source for that stuff |
01:05.15 | Hexxeh | i'd imagine your partition layout is screwed |
01:05.24 | t0dbld|work | ya |
01:05.26 | Hexxeh | probably stateful isn't where it expects it to be |
01:05.32 | t0dbld|work | but thats how i got it to boot |
01:05.36 | t0dbld|work | yeah ^ |
01:06.29 | t0dbld|work | Hexxeh: is it relying on the UID for partitions checking or the actual position ? |
01:06.40 | Hexxeh | UUID you mean? |
01:06.42 | Hexxeh | not afaik no |
01:06.47 | Hexxeh | just the position in the table |
01:06.49 | t0dbld|work | as i see it labels all of them automatically |
01:06.53 | Hexxeh | it assumes stateful is partition 1 |
01:07.02 | Hexxeh | it has to be GPT formatted too |
01:07.15 | t0dbld|work | well i got to recovery in MBR :-P but i agree |
01:07.52 | Hexxeh | ah, that's why then |
01:07.54 | Hexxeh | MBR isn't gonna work |
01:07.58 | t0dbld|work | yeah |
01:07.59 | Hexxeh | it'll try to run cgpt and then die |
01:09.02 | t0dbld|work | yeah ... so like i said first thing is i need to create a new uboot for it cause the generic one for arm doesnt boot the tab ... is it putting the uboot in 12 ? or is it still writting it the mbr ? |
01:10.47 | Hexxeh | on an arm-generic image, u-boot isn't on the image at all |
01:10.56 | Hexxeh | it's supposed to be installed via other means |
01:11.14 | t0dbld|work | ahh well wtf is in 12 than ... i guess i read conflicting pages lol |
01:12.14 | t0dbld|work | honestly this would prob be easier to do on nand than sdcard :-P but i dont feel like rewritting nand a million times as i play with this |
01:16.19 | t0dbld|work | and last question before i actually do the rest of my needed homework :-P .... The kernel partions : is there anything else in it ? i guess what i mean is im trying to be lazy and not re do work till im closer so if i wrote it a new uboot could i just write my existing working kernel over it ? |
01:16.46 | Hexxeh | 12th partition has u-boot scripts |
01:17.00 | t0dbld|work | k |
01:17.58 | t0dbld|work | ya it comes up as a EFI |

08:12.55 | mnemoc | sending 2? |
08:13.37 | hno | the Allwinner bootloader accepts 1 / 2 / 3 commands for different boot modes. Just send the key on the serial port while boot1 is booting. |

10:40.28 | mnemoc | cnxsoft: using the current head of sun4i? |
10:40.39 | cnxsoft | mnemoc: yes |
10:40.45 | cnxsoft | I'm trying another toolchain |
10:40.48 | cnxsoft | it could be the issue |
10:41.28 | mnemoc | it was broken a couple of weeks because some changes in upstream but hno downgraded it |
10:41.50 | cnxsoft | I've just build it now with gcc 4.6.3 |
10:42.04 | mnemoc | what did you use before? 4.7? |
10:42.27 | cnxsoft | This is what I did https://github.com/hno/uboot-allwinner/issues/10 |
10:42.46 | cnxsoft | I mean I have problems with gcc 4.6.3 in Ubuntu |
10:42.58 | cnxsoft | now I will try with codesourcery instead |
10:44.03 | mnemoc | cnxsoft: try this image once: http://www.henriknordstrom.net/code/A10/ |
10:44.13 | mnemoc | at least to discard other problems |
10:46.01 | cnxsoft | mnemoc: There is no spl there, only u-boot |
10:46.13 | mnemoc | it's both |
10:46.18 | cnxsoft | ah |
10:46.19 | cnxsoft | ok |
10:46.51 | mnemoc | it's a ready to dump 1MB image without partitions |
10:46.51 | cnxsoft | so I can just do dd if=u-boot-mmc-hno-201203.img of=/dev/sdb bs=1024 seek=8 ? |
10:47.14 | mnemoc | no seek |
10:47.44 | mnemoc | dd if=image of=card |
10:48.55 | cnxsoft | It will wipe out my partition table... Maybe I'll skip that for now. If I use Tom u-boot (from ubuntu 10.04 image), it works. |
10:49.47 | mnemoc | ok |
10:51.58 | mnemoc | have you tried a not hf toolchain? |
10:53.34 | cnxsoft | using arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc gives the same result |
10:53.49 | cnxsoft | I've noticed the allwinner-meta may have the same issue |
10:54.50 | cnxsoft | and he's using gcc 4.7 |
10:54.55 | mnemoc | I found an spare card, I'll try hno's prebuilt image and then try to build my own.... I've been using the same spl since ages ago |
11:03.20 | cnxsoft | I still have the same issue using a different compiler |
11:05.39 | mnemoc | do you have a serial console to review the env? |
11:06.58 | mnemoc | well... is your problem getting the spl to boot? uboot to boot? or linux to boot? |
11:20.17 | mnemoc | ok, according to the ticket you don't eveb see the gretting of the spl |
11:25.56 | cnxsoft | mnemoc: Yes I don't get anything at all |
11:26.20 | cnxsoft | so the problem starts with the spl |
11:30.16 | cnxsoft | If I use http://www.henriknordstrom.net/code/A10/hipboi-ubuntu-boot/uboot-spl.bin, instead of my sun4i-spl.bin it works fine |
11:30.46 | cnxsoft | The size is quite different, mine is about 15kb, but hipboi one is 23kb |

11:49.41 | cnxsoft | ok, but in the future will we also use that branch ? |
11:50.05 | cnxsoft | I'm building u-boot because I'm writing a build script for nightly or weekly builds |
11:50.26 | mnemoc | stick with the tag for now |
11:50.48 | mnemoc | but the branch will get fixed sooner than later |
11:52.03 | mnemoc | btw, if you are in the mood for testing, the `wip/linux-3.3-sunxi/forward-3.0-v2` kernel branch is begging for some attention :p |
11:52.26 | mnemoc | (usb gadget support is still broken) |
11:54.49 | cnxsoft | I'll finish the scripts to generate Linux distro first... then I'll see what I can do with the wip branch |

14:15.56 | mnemoc | ssh tunnels for the win |
14:17.05 | Turl | zenitraM: I even wrote a proxy pool script to rotate tunnels using ssh -D for JDownloader ;) |
14:17.17 | Turl | and hooked the 'reconnect' thing to it :P |
14:17.26 | zenitraM | now that is clever |
14:18.40 | Turl | zenitraM: http://paste.debian.net/174117/ + http://paste.debian.net/174118/ |
14:19.01 | Turl | then use localhost:9050 on JD, and set it up to run proxypool rotate on the reconnect thing |
14:19.22 | zenitraM | mhm is there any way to make the tunnel bind to a specific address for outgoing connections? |
14:20.10 | zenitraM | shared hosting servers with ssh access i've seen have like 30 different ip address assigned |
14:20.11 | Turl | zenitraM: according to man, -D [bind_address:]port |
14:20.26 | zenitraM | that's to bind for the server, i want it for the client... |
14:20.35 | zenitraM | i mean, backwards |
14:20.56 | Turl | so your connections go out using a single ip on the remote side? |
14:20.59 | Turl | I think I understood |
14:21.10 | zenitraM | exactly |

15:43.58 | Turl | well maybe more like 250, I'm actually doubting now :P |

15:44.35 | Turl | mnemoc: consider the A10 tablets, cpu is around the same range as N1 |

15:47.37 | Turl | consider it's not like you need it to draw a crapton of polygons |

15:48.12 | mnemoc | :) |
15:48.17 | zenitraM | the problem is that there are no official libraries for the adreno for ics, or there weren't when i tried |
15:48.35 | mnemoc | zenitraM: wouldn't a cm9 *image* come with the needed hboot? |
15:48.38 | Turl | zenitraM: qualcomm released some themselves |

15:49.24 | zenitraM | although in the nexus it might be differnet |

21:10.23 | libv | specing: well, this was the time window when AMD was going to clean up big in ATI, and contacted SuSE for help |
21:10.31 | ZaEarl | an old laptop may not have the bios and/or slot features necessary for msata cards |
21:11.12 | Turl | well, if my memory serves me well, I think I saw 2 miniPCIE slots |
21:11.22 | Turl | the wifi is just using one |
21:11.37 | Turl | and do you need bios support? isn't it more about OS support? |

21:12.06 | ZaEarl | are you going to try to boot off the msata? |
21:12.23 | hno | Turl, 4965AGN Rev 4 says dmesg. |
21:12.31 | Turl | I guess, but if it's not possible I might as well grub off HDD |
21:12.42 | libv | specing: sadly though, throughout most of 2008, ATI ended up running the show, and AMD management dropped the ball big time on the open source project |
21:12.44 | ZaEarl | chaining grub from hd to msata might work |
21:13.16 | Turl | ZaEarl: I can put /boot on HD and rootfs on msata if just grub doesn't cut it |
21:13.23 | libv | specing: and now nothing of those originally lofty, but subsequently proven achievable, goals remain |
21:13.57 | ZaEarl | yes, that might work. times I tried cards like that we were hoping to have no hd. |
21:14.50 | Turl | anyway, of the possible upgrades it's the cheapest and the one with the most benefit/$ ratio |
21:15.13 | Turl | topping up ram is a ripoff, and I can live with the intel wifi I have now |
21:15.13 | ZaEarl | especially if you have a second slot available |
21:15.36 | specing | hno: I have the same wifi card ;D |
