[opensuse-arm] armStoneA8: Failed to mount /dev
by Andreas Färber 02 Dec '12

02 Dec '12

Hello, On the armStoneA8 board, using NBoot V14 and U-Boot, I'm trying to boot the downstream 3.3.7 kernel (BSP V1.1) from SD with a LimeJeOS rootfs on SD. I had to reconfigure the kernel with CONFIG_LBDAF to mount the ext3[*] rootfs r/w. This is what I get now: [...] mmc0: new high speed SDHC card at address b368 IPv6 over IPv4 tunneling driver mmcblk0: mmc0:b368 NCard 7.48 GiB NET: Registered protocol family 17 can: controller area network core (rev 20090105 abi 8) mmcblk0: p1 NET: Registered protocol family 29 can: raw protocol (rev 20090105) can: broadcast manager protocol (rev 20090105 t) Registering the dns_resolver key type VFP support v0.3: implementor 41 architecture 3 part 30 variant c rev 2 s3c-rtc s3c64xx-rtc: setting system clock to 2000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC (946684800) kjournald starting.

[opensuse-arm] owncloud for ARM
by endym 02 Dec '12

Hi all, I want to use owncloud (http://www.owncloud.org) on a Pandaboard. Since "zypper se owncloud" does not found anything and the OBS does not provide an ARM version, I guess I have to install it manually, right?

[opensuse-arm] Network interface not coming up at boot time on CuBox
by Ciaran Farrell 30 Nov '12

30 Nov '12

One thing I've been noticing on the CuBox is that, at each reboot, the network interface is not brought up. Strangely, the system tries to set up ethX where X increments by one at each reboot. For example, I now see the following in /var/log/boot.log: network[398]: Setting up (localfs) network interfaces: network[398]: lo network[398]: lo IP address: 127.0.0.1/8 network[398]: ..done eth4 network[398]: No configuration found for eth4 network[398]: ..unusedWaiting for mandatory devices: eth0 network[398]: 26 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 [...] network[398]: eth0 No interface found network[398]: ..failed The last time, eth3 was involved; before that eth2. Next time it will be eth5. In yast (network settings), there were two interfaces - eth0 and eth4 (not configured). I deleted eth0 and configured eth4 (basically just set it to dhcp rather than static). After saving, the network was back up again. Any idea what is causing this?

[opensuse-arm] New contrib images: Arndale & Chromebook
by Alexander Graf 30 Nov '12

30 Nov '12

Hi list, We now have 2 new community supported platforms: Arndale Board The Arndale board is the first widely available virtualization capable system in the ARM world. It runs on a a dual-core Samsung Exynos 5 with 1.7 Ghz (unstable, so it's throttled to 1.4Ghz and according to Linaro reports even needs to go down to 1Ghz to be stable) which is based on Cortex A15! It has KVM support, SATA, USB 3.0 and ethernet. That board is the perfect build node for OBS. Retail price is $250. http://en.opensuse.org/HCL:Arndale Samsung Chromebook The Samsung Chromebook is also based on a dual-core Exynos 5, but runs stable at 1.7Ghz. It does not have KVM enablement in the software stack yet, but that is WIP effort. However, it has a screen, keyboard and battery built in, so it's easy to carry around. It also features USB 3.0 for fast I/O. It is a full-fledged notebook and the perfect openSUSE community device, as it is a desktop that's powerful enough for every day use. Retail price is $250. http://en.opensuse.org/HCL:ARMChromebook Alex -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-arm] 12.2 release on Pandaboard ES - How to finish first startup?
by Thomas Mattke 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

Hi, I try to run the 12.2 release (http://download.opensuse.org/ports/armv7hl/distribution/12.2-untested/appli…) on a Pandaboard ES, but I can't finish the first startup. On the debug console I get following output (with CuteCom on KDE): http://paste.opensuse.org/b4bcc042 At the end of the output YaST2 is started automatically and until then the output is hard to read. It looks like a language selection dialog... When I start the Pandaboard with a HDMI connection to a TV I see two penguins and after a while a black screen. I can switch to text consoles with CTRL+Fx, but there is only a blinking cursor (underline symbol) at the upper left corner. Any help would be appreciated!

Is $arcNumber not set up correctly on your local NVRAM? Also, this still breaks after your first reboot, because the boot script gets regenerated on first boot. Furthermore, this change only gets 12.2 working for you, but still fails on Factory. We should certainly find out why it doesn't work for you and get a generic solution up and rolling, so that Factory works too :).

[opensuse-arm] Quick XFCE beagle image test (for 12.2)
by Guillaume Gardet 27 Nov '12

27 Nov '12

Hi, I just quickly tested the latest XFCE beagle image (12.2). Here, are my results: * YaST Firstboot is launched in gfx mode (very nice) * All seems working even if it is a bit slow (no bug) But: * resolution is fixed in 1024x768 * Icons from XFCE desktop are there at first boot but after a reboot, we lost them (same for background) * Plymouth does not show anything * omapdrm is included in kernel image, not as a module. It would be better to have it as a module and add it to initrd to keep gfx during boot. (If it is working like that). * sound still does not work, because the patch come after 3.4.6 push from git to OBS. Moreover, I get an error during the first boot about resizing: ************************************************************************ Current system partition is bigger than requested size. Disk won't be repartitionned. ************************************************************************ So, we should adjust the partition size in kiwi description for XFCE images.

[opensuse-arm] openSUSE 12.2 RC2 Release preparation
by Dirk Müller 26 Nov '12

26 Nov '12

Hi ARM :-), Hi Jos, Alex and I have worked yesterday a few hours to finish up the last remaining bugs for a 12.2 RC2 release. we plan that this is the last RC before final 12.2 for ARM, which is scheduled for November 6th. The changes over RC1 are: * various bugfixes in the imaging * add an update repository to the images for maintenance * adding various fixes for booting machines without RTC with a reasonable system time * Adding a YaST firstboot stage for configuring the country, language, root password and creating the first user login * various smaller fixes in packaging We have also enabled support for the following SoCs' * Calxeda Highbank * CuBox * IMX 53 * Samsung Origen In addition, we added XFCE images for panda and beagle board. We know that those still have some bugs that need to be fixed for the final release. the JeOS images are good though. We've personally tested some of the variations, but not all of them. We'd like to get more feedback about it. In addition to that, we've also worked on graphics support for a few of the boards, with varying results. The Raspberry Pi image is not part of this release, it will come at a later point in time as a separate announcement. The images are available for download from: http://download.opensuse.org/ports/armv7hl/distribution/12.2-RC2/ This link is not yet up, I'm still waiting for the build service team to sign and upload the images there. This link: http://download.opensuse.org/ports/armv7hl/distribution/openSUSE-stable/ will point to RC2 once it is available so we could use that one as well. I hope that we can do the announcement on sunday evening latest, but it might slip to monday I'm afraid :( Please work on the promo bits, and fire at will once the link above (with - RC2) is working. The rest of the announcement can be reused from the RC1 announcement that Andrew did. Thanks!

[opensuse-arm] Fwd: [fedora-arm] ARMv8 Bootstrap Project
by Andrew Wafaa 22 Nov '12

22 Nov '12

Aloha all, Does anyone know if something similar has started within openSUSE? None of the work being undertaken by Fedora at this point is covered by any restrictions, so there should be nothing stopping openSUSE from doing something similar. I'm happy to make a start, so long as someone can confirm what process/steps is desired for the bootstarp process on openSUSE. Many thanks, Andy ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Al Stone <ahs3(a)redhat.com> Date: 21 November 2012 21:30 Subject: [fedora-arm] ARMv8 Bootstrap Project To: arm(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Howdy. It's time to announce a little project I've been working on for the last few weeks: the ARMv8 bootstrap project for Fedora. There has been a lot of interest in ARMv8 (also known as aarch64) in the last few months since it was introduced by ARM. A 64-bit processor that uses as little power as possible could provide an enormous cost savings to the vast and growing data centers throughout the world. So, even though hardware is not yet available, we have started the work needed to bring Fedora to ARMv8. Using the ARM provided Foundation model (a platform simulator for ARMv8), we have been building up the packages needed to eventually get to a full native build of Fedora. Details and current status are here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/AArch64 Of the six stages needed in the bootstrap of a new architecture, we are in the middle of stage 2; these are therefore pretty early bits. In the interest of full transparency in what we do, and in the spirit of release early and release often, grab a copy and have fun! On the Fedora wiki, you will find instructions on where to find all the bits and pieces used to construct the root file system image that's been created so far, and how to use the ARM Foundation model to do further work. And there is plenty to do :). If you'd like to help, read through the wiki pages above and get yourself to the point where you can run the ARM Foundation model using the Fedora root file system. Then find a package needing some love and do what needs to be done for ARMv8 (the wiki explains how). And if you have questions, you can find me (ahs3) on #fedora-arm on IRC (Freenode), or ask on this mailing list; the more, the merrier. -- ciao, al ----------------------------------- Al Stone Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc. ahs3(a)redhat.com ----------------------------------- _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm(a)lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm -- Andrew Wafaa IRC: FunkyPenguin GPG: 0x3A36312F -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-arm] Perl fails to build in Factory for armv7

Hi, Perl have been updated from 5.16.1 to 5.16.2 in Factory and now it fails to build for armv7 with a strange error.

[opensuse-arm] kiwi FAT32 support

[opensuse-arm] Kiwi and armv5
by Guillaume Gardet 16 Nov '12

Hi Marcus, It seems your trick to move armv5 Image to vmlinuz is not working: See: https://github.com/openSUSE/kiwi/commit/8a3bea89ea2147c89c585687846ffdf7d9e… In modules/KIWIConfig.sh: + elif [[ $arch =~ ^arm ]] && [ -f image-$VERSION ];then + mv image-$VERSION vmlinuz is KO. Because you have not to test for image-* but for Image-* (with a capital letter) During a build, I get this log: *************************************************************** mv: cannot stat 'vmlinuz-3.1.10-1.17-raspberrypi': No such file or directory (...)

Are there any blockers for 12.2 final release known? if so please speak up.

[opensuse-arm] Cubox Image not working?
by Ciaran Farrell 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

I'm having a problem with the CuBox image referenced from http://www.solid-run.com/mw/index.php/OpenSUSE_on_CuBox - I downloaded it, extracted it and dd'd it on to the SD card. After inserting the SD card and connecting up a USB cable, I inserted the CuBox power cable. The result was that the CuBox s red LED started blinking. I had _no_ /dev/ttyUSB to connect to, so can't debug anything. The CuBox was working fine with a debian image on the same SD Card up to an hour ago - so I wonder if our 12.2 image is somehow different...

[opensuse-arm] kernel-firmware for amrv5?
by Guillaume Gardet 08 Nov '12

08 Nov '12

Hi, kernel-firmware needs kernel-default to be built but amrv5 has no kernel-default, so kernel-firmware is not buildable. Kernel-default seems to be used to add some firmwares to the package. I guess kernel-firmware should be useful for armv5, so we have 2 solutions: * 1st: add -default kernel flavour for armv5. (but which flavour will be the default?) * 2nd: add a package overlay in Factory:ARM (a local patch) to build kernel-firmware without kernel-default deps. What would be the best? If you have any idea, please share. Guillaume -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

Hi, I tested quickly JeOS and XFCE beagle images on a beagleboard xM. YaST firstboot is launched, so it is very nice to have a configured board. But it is launched on the serial port and not on the DVI output. Is it configurable? I guess it is launched on the debug console? It could be nice to have it on serial for JeOS and on graphical user interface on XFCE image. Moreover, XFCE (and X) is (are) not launched automatically on boot. I needed to do a "sudo startxfce4".
