[opensuse-arm] accelerate aarch64 qemu build
by Adrian Schröter 14 Sep '13

14 Sep '13

Hi, I have a working setup for using the accelerated binaries for aarch64 builds in home:adrianSuSE:branches:openSUSE:Factory:ARM also, I am working on accelerated armv6hl. Is there any reason not to apply the current state already in openSUSE:Factory:ARM for aarch64? moin adrian -- Adrian Schroeter email: adrian(a)suse.de SUSE LINUX GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstraße 5 90409 Nürnberg Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hi, what happened? why do we suddenly have 3800 unresolvable packages?! very weird errors as well: unresolvable: nothing provides libpng16.so.16()(64bit) needed by libqt4-devel but libpng16 exists..

[opensuse-arm] Stupid questions about u-boot, kernel, boot.scr.img
by Stefan Seyfried 11 Sep '13

11 Sep '13

Hi all, I'm trying to get RasPi to boot with U-Boot, streamlined with the other ARM platforms (I guess). So how is this designed to work? That's what I understand: * U-Boot * loads boot.scr.img from <whatever the board boots from> * boot.scr loads kernel.img * really?, or the zImage directly? * from where? always from the same boot partition U-Boot came from? or possibly from the root fs? (extload should be able to do that?) * maybe boot.scr has the kernel cmdline embedded? Or does it load it from storage? If this is not correct, please tell me the correct sequence (or point me to the documentation ;) Then, the more interesting questions are: * who creates kernel.img U-Boot image (if this is used)? * who creates boot.scr.img? Actually I am trying to do the following for the RPI: * u-boot on SDCard FAT partition * boot.script on SDCard FAT partition, intelligent enough to fetch some sort of config from /boot on ext4 rootfs (for kernel command line options) * boot.script to load kernel from /boot on ext4 rootfs The idea is, that the FAT partitions does not need to be touched after a kernel update etc, but that it will just fetch all that's needed from the rootfs. Not sure if this is a good idea and if it is going to work, but it would surely make kernel updates etc. much more painless than they are now.

[opensuse-arm] Package bluez is missing in repository for armv6hl
by Freek de Kruijf 11 Sep '13

11 Sep '13

I have a bluetooth USB stick in my Raspberry Pi and with the rapberrypi kernel I do see bluetooth modules loaded in the kernel. However, some bleutooth packages are available in the repository, but the most imported one, bleuz, is missing. Is it possible to add this package to the repository? -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

Re: Re :Re : [opensuse-arm] Raspberry Pi: might we go to kernel 3.6.x?

Hi, > Alex, Dirk, are you ok to remove :kernel-3.6 subproject since all people want to go for 3.6 kernel in Contrib:RPi repo because it fixes lots of bugs? Sounds good to me, go ahead.

[opensuse-arm] Raspberry Pi: might we go to kernel 3.6.x?
by Stefan Seyfried 10 Sep '13

10 Sep '13

Hi all, after Andreas' and Guillaume's great HOWTO, I finally pulled out my raspi over the weekend and played with it. It works pretty well. However, the system is pretty unstable with the 3.1 kernel. I noticed when trying to build ffmpeg from source. Lots of strange errors, from ext4 complaining about delayed allocation to spurios "ENOPERM" when closing temporary files during compilation etc. Also, the raspberrypi-gfx demo/test tools did not work, erroring with messages about "vcihq not connected" in dmesg. Additionally, my 512MB Raspi only had 256MB available, no matter what amount of gpu_mem I put into config.txt. Then I simply grabbed the binary kernel and modules from https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux and new firmware from https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware and voila -- the little box was running stable. So I took the kernel from devel:ARM:Factory:Contrib:RaspberryPi:kernel-3.6 and updated the patch set to yesterdays git and changed the configuration to be pretty similar to what is in the "upstream" git. I also updated the firmware package. Both together run very fine for me. I have all RAM available, the test tools work, etc.pp. So maybe it would make sense to use the 3.6.11 kernel as "upstream" Raspberry Pi also does? I created SRs 198076 (raspberrypi-firmware) and 198080 (kernel-raspberrypi) and maybe we should use devel:ARM:Factory:Contrib:RaspberryPi:kernel-3.6 as the default raspi kernel?
