[opensuse-arm] openQA: ARM
by Matwey V. Kornilov 24 Feb '15

24 Feb '15

Hi, What do you think about adding couple of test cases for ARM to our openQA? I remember two cases when our JeOSes were broken independently of hardware. First one, when u-boot was looking for boot.scr in wrong place, second one, when the kernel 3.14 was broken due to bug in depmod. So, I think that we could test JeOS-vexpress and JeOS-vexpress64 for armv7 and aarch64 using qemu emulation (I know that it is slow ;) ) Then just check that the image is booted for the first time, and for the second time, controlling the process through serial console. At the moment I have no idea how many efforts are needed to implement this. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-arm] Raspberry Pi B+, No Revision or Serial?
by Evan McClain 11 Feb '15

11 Feb '15

Hi List, While setting up my new rpi B+, I noticed that my eth0's MAC address would change after each boot which was causing a new ip address to be issued by my router after every boot. I found this post roughly describing my issue: http://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=90975 My /proc/cpuinfo shows my Revision as 0000 (instead of 0010) and my Serial is also just 0s. Adding: program_serial_random=1 and program_board_rev=2 to Config.txt didn't fix the issue. Other raspberry pi distributions do show my Serial and Revision as expected, and eth0's MAC address isn't random. It appears that the command line doesn't get updated with the proper bcm2708.boardrev and bcm2708.serial (and possibly smsc95xx.macaddr) options. I have built an upstream kernel (3.18.0 branch) and that doesn't seem to help (I thought the default kernel may not be parsing the options). And I even tried updating the boot firmware to the raspberrypi's next branch with no impact. I'm not too familiar with opensuse's rpi boot process, but it looks fairly different from what I've seen on arch and raspbian (i.e. the vfat partition is used to start the boot.scr on the ext4's /boot directory). As this is my first rpi, I'm still trying to figure things out... Is it possible that the kernel parameters are not being passed properly when the kernel on the /boot/zImage is loaded? Also, do the previous pi revisions work or is this new to the B+? Or could this be an issue with the Factory port? Thanks -- Evan McClain /* No Comment */ https://keybase.io/aeroevan

[opensuse-arm] Speed up devel:libraries:c_c++ armv7 building
by Oscar C 02 Jan '15

02 Jan '15

Hi, I couple of armv7 packages that depends on libraries on devel:libraries:c_c++ are blocked because package building is progressing very slowly. Almost 48 hours later and only 25 of 187 packages have been built so far. aarch64 had all of the packages built in less than 24 hours. What can be done to speed it up? Thanks! -- Cheers -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

OS for Raspbi-Pi Hi Raspi-Friends. Thanks first to Alex and others for telling me not to use the Build.tbz-Version but the xx.raw.xy-file in the same directory. But - sorry - how to extract the raw-file?

Hi, I got a CX-919 RK3188 with android 4.2 [1] I'm a newbie for this arm thing and want to boot this mini pc using microsd card. While I'm succeed to boot this mini pc with ubuntu image from linuxium [2] [3], I failed to boot it with image from openSUSE arm image from [4]. I try several xfce rootfs and JeOS rootfs image from 12.3 to 13.2 but nothing succeed. I read on the net that someone success with rk3188 but no luck for me after following the instruction on his blog [5]. Can someone point me to the right direction? Should I make a new image with the new kernel-arm and follow the instruction on openSUSE wiki [6]? Is there any instruction for a newbie? Any help would be much appreciate.

[opensuse-arm] Disabling frameworks that are known to fail
by Andrew Wafaa 18 Dec '14

18 Dec '14

Hi, Looking at the current failures/unresolvables for AArch64, I notice that a large chink of these are language frameworks that are known not to have been ported yet to the architecture. In the interest of seeing the wood for the trees, is it worth disabling those known not to work? Ones I'm thinking of are Mono, Go, Haskell (ghc), NodeJS. By disabling these it will make it much easier to see the outstanding packages that need work.

by Michael Ströder 17 Dec '14

17 Dec '14

HI! Frankly I'm lost in all the ARM-related repo URLs... Currently I'm using on my rasperry pi: http://download.opensuse.org/ports/armv6hl/factory/repo/oss/ Does this repo receive all the openSUSE updates? Or is there an openSUSE 13.2 repo available for rasperry pi? Ciao, Michael.
