For OMAP it is omap2plus, as per the config. This should support all omap2plus devices, including the Beagle and Panda. That's OK. I can rename it.

[opensuse-arm] efika questions
by Peter Czanik 14 Nov '11

14 Nov '11

Hello, I did not have Internet access for more than a week, and lost a bit track, what is going on with the openSUSE ARM port. What I see is very good news: over 3000 packages build already ( https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=openSUSE%3AFactory%3AARM ). As I have an EFIKA MX and helped to get some EFIKAs for developers, my questions relate to it: - what triplet is used to compile hardfloat binaries? In the archives I found: "Currently we're building with -march=armv7-a -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=vfp3-d16 -mthumb." Is it still the case? (I was asked by Debian ARM HF project lead last week...) - how are the EFIKAs used? - I have openSUSE running in a chroot on my smartbook, thanks to http://michal.hrusecky.net/2011/10/opensuse-arm-chroot-less-then-alpha/ Is there already an image which could be booted directly? Or instructions how to install it natively on the EFIKA? I'll be an FSF Hungary conference this weekend, and would be nice to demo my smartbook with openSUSE running native :) Bye, CzP -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-arm] current definitive build success on real arm hw

Hi guys, We have a few EFIKA boxes sitting on a disk at SUSE building Factory in parallel to the emulated builds. So we have a list of "known goods" that can be compared to "known failures" with QEMU builds to find QEMU breakages.

[opensuse-arm] GMP build issue (make check) for armv7l
by Joop Boonen 07 Nov '11

07 Nov '11

Hi All, I'm busy checking out why make test fails for gmp. <quote> make check-TESTS make[4]: Entering directory `/usr/src/packages/BUILD/gmp-5.0.2/tests/cxx' terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::invalid_argument' terminate called recursively qemu: uncaught target signal 6 (Aborted) - core dumped /bin/sh: line 5: 333 Aborted ${dir}$tst FAIL: t-assign PASS: t-binary PASS: t-cast terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::invalid_argument' terminate called recursively qemu: uncaught target signal 6 (Aborted) - core dumped /bin/sh: line 5: 390 Aborted ${dir}$tst FAIL: t-constr PASS: t-headers PASS: t-istream PASS: t-locale PASS: t-misc PASS: t-ops PASS: t-ostream PASS: t-prec terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::length_error' terminate called recursively qemu: uncaught target signal 6 (Aborted) - core dumped /bin/sh: line 5: 536 Aborted ${dir}$tst FAIL: t-rand PASS: t-ternary PASS: t-unary ==================================== 3 of 14 tests failed Please report to gmp-bugs(a)gmplib.org ==================================== </quote> What I see is the following. For some reason there seems to be an exception handling issue for openSuSE arm. If I look for instance in the t-assign.cc // operator=(const char *) with invalid { try { const char *a = "abc"; mpz_class b; b = a; ASSERT_ALWAYS (0); /* should not be reached */ } catch (invalid_argument) { } } All code is fine. An exception has correctly been generated. But for some reason the try/catch doesn't catch the exception. Even if I change the "} catch (invalid_argument) {" to "} catch (...) {" it doesn't. I saw such an exception also in zypper when I didn't do a refresh I also saw something like terminate called after throwing an instance of '*File*NotExist*' or something like that. So I don't think it's a gmp but an exception handling problem. I don't know yet where the exceptions are handled. By which package. I'm checking this out now. If someone knows please let me know.

[opensuse-arm] Got Xorg openSuSE armv7l running by means of xorg-x11-drv-omapfb
by Joop Boonen 01 Nov '11

01 Nov '11

Hi all, I've just got Xorg openSuSE armv7l running by means of xorg-x11-drv-omapfb. The package can be found in home:worldcitizen:armv7l I did a submit request to X11:XOrg #89848 . I've borrowed it from MeeGo. OpenSuSE arm7l looks already promising. zypper, network are all fine. A problem with udev exists. It might be that kernel 2.6.35 and the current udev 173 are not compatible. Because of the udev issue I don't have any keyboard and mouse when running WindowMaker. I will later add configuration files. I needed to disable the following files in: /etc/init.d/ boot.udev boot.rootfsck boot.dmraid As prevented the system to boot. I wonder when we'll have a hardfp openGL ES driver for the PandaBoard.

[opensuse-arm] new qemu deployment in openSUSE:Factory:ARM and Base:build:arm
by Adrian Schröter 28 Oct '11

28 Oct '11

JFYI, we do use the qemu from openSUSE:Tools project in openSUSE:Factory:ARM via some aggregate&ExportFilter trick now. That means we don't need to deploy new worker images anymore for a qemu upgrade. The qemu version in openSUSE:Tools is currently not frozen, that means changes in Virtualization or openSUSE:Factory project will have direct effects. We can change this if needed. bye adrian PS: this is still considered a hack and not a clean solution, because it still requires identical architectures via the build hosts. A cleaner solution will be implemented later when working on worker capabilities. -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian(a)suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-arm] iproute2 package exists. :)

Hi All, I see iproute2 has been build. I'm going to checkout how far I can get with JeOS, this weekend. A small remark. There is a unresolvable issue with iproute2 now. nothing provides perl = 5.14.1 needed by sgmltool If I check this out it looks like it;s not correct.

Why not be the distro that also invites people who want to try other distro's? If you look at other distro's they are more inviting for people who want to try other distro's. http://lists.debian.org/ports.html https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo Why not even add a opensuse-mips mailing-list for people in for instance China who would like to work on a Loongson/Godson port. I think this will pull more hardware gurus to our distro. I think our current limiting approach set us behind other distro's on supported archs. This is something we see now in the arm port. This might happen again when another important architecture would appear. I think we should get rid of the opensuse-amd86 mailing-list as it's x86. One other thing I also don't understand is. WE currently build all ppc packages as Factory. Why don't we also build a the iso's for the current version, with the extra label unstable (so 12.1-unstable-ppc). Now a newbie that is interested in openSuSE on his old Mac won't be able to install openSuSE ppc due to the lack of a DVD. And therefor will move on to another distro. > > -- > Cheers > Richard (MQ) > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ppc+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org > To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-ppc+owner(a)opensuse.org > > Regards, Joop. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner(a)opensuse.org
