15:05.11algehi
15:08.10aweluxhi alge
15:08.33algeis there a way, when using openembedded, to get the needed kernel-module-* packages (dependencies of other kernel-modules) added automatically into to rootf image?
15:11.33algeI am currently using someting like "tmp/cross/bin/arm-linux-modinfo tmp/rootfs/lib/modules/2.6.16-hh5/kernel/drivers/*" to get the dependencies done step by step ...
15:54.52algeanother question: i'm trying to boot the hh5 (2.6.16) kernel with rob_w's patches and a familiar-unstable gpe-image. it boots, I can ping it via usb0 but no ssh login, no Xfbdev starting ... I modified the 2.6.12 initrd a little bit, changed lib/modules to .16, removed its Xfbdev and dropbear- was that wrong? but shouldn't Xfbdev and dropbear come from the filesystem on the sd card part2?
15:57.44algeanother problem is that the kernel warns about missing its initial console, so I cant see meesages from the initrd ...
16:28.10algeis it possible to generate the initrd as some openembedded *-image? has someone a *.bb file to do this?
16:38.45*** join/#htc-linux Nalim (n=Miranda@213.151.92.182)
16:44.38aweluxalge, You could ask the openembedded question in the openembedded channel #oe
16:45.54aweluxAbout dropbear not starting. I've seen scripts where dopbear was started from the initrd image and only later the real image from sd card was mounted as root.
16:46.20aweluxIf you remove dropbear in this case it won't get started automatically from sd card later.
16:48.07aweluxI'm not sure what to make from the initial console warning though. Do you have the option console on framebuffer activated?
16:48.37algeI think so
16:49.14algeI see kernel messages on the console, but i added some echo to the linuxrc in the intrd and this daos not appear
16:51.21algeconsole on fb is set:  CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y
16:52.23algeCan it be that the binaries in the initrd (which come from the 2.6.12 initrd) are to old/incompatible with my familiar-unstable rootfs?
16:55.44aweluxhmm. let me think. I had this problem too.
16:56.51aweluxI think I had a buggy haret when I had the problem and wasn't able to pass kernel parameters.
16:57.03aweluxIn the kernel parameters I specify the console.
16:57.55aweluxThis migh also explain why you have problems with the starup scripts.
16:58.16rob_whey dudes
16:58.29aweluxI've root=/dev/mmc/blk0/part2 init=/linurc console=tty0 in my kernel parameters
16:58.33aweluxnhi rob_w
16:59.38algeI 'll try two things: use the old unmodified initrd (but with 2.6.16 modules) and build a new one as oe image in initramfs format (can be doen without loop mounting and so without root access, i think)
17:00.43rob_wi also starting a new rootfs as mine is having alignment traps all over
17:01.09algeah, I have root=/dev/ram0 ... I tried /dev/mmcblk0p2 but this didnt work, will try /dev/mmc/blk0/part2 first
17:03.11awelux<-reboot
17:05.14rob_walge still will need /dev/mmcblk0p2
17:05.43rob_wbrb
17:08.17*** join/#htc-linux rob_w (n=bob@p213.54.218.173.tisdip.tiscali.de)
17:09.44algebut then cannot open root device .,..
17:10.04rob_w? but you where booting 2.6.16 ?
17:10.12algeyes
17:10.20rob_ware u really sure ?
17:10.42algethere i only a zimage-2.6.16-hh5 on my sd card :-)
17:11.14algethe kernel sees the two partitions on mmc0:
17:11.19algemmcblk0: p1 p2
17:11.57algebut then ist says cannot open root device, maybe the /dev/ entriy is missing?
17:11.59rob_wwonders me .. probably ur rootfs is old as it then doesnt use udev .. as udev has it on /dev/mmcblk0pX
17:12.55algewhat do you men with rootfs, the initrd or the part2?
17:13.11rob_wah
17:13.24rob_wu are using initrd
17:13.48algeyes, i enabled it in the htcbluangel_defconfig
17:13.58rob_wwithout initrd u will be able to boot on mmcblk0
17:14.16algeok ,  i ll try
17:14.56algewill it work with a rootfs generated with recent openembedded as gpe-image?
17:21.48rob_wyes
17:22.11rob_wdepending on your definition of "recent"
17:37.00algeyesterday :-)
17:39.40rob_wwell ... that might work :-O
17:47.49rob_walge, can you boot now ?
17:50.42algestill connat open root device mmcblk0p2
17:50.51alges/connat/cannot/
17:51.25rob_wu use my defconfig ?
17:51.34algeI'll check what the differences between my .config and yours are
17:52.10algeI took yours but did some modifications, just for "training purposes" :-)
17:53.24rob_wlemme update it and show u the one i currently use
17:54.45*** join/#htc-linux awelux (n=awelux__@dslb-084-058-097-037.pools.arcor-ip.net)
17:55.15rob_wupdated now
17:57.01algeok, now there are more differences, I 'll recompile with yours, thanks
18:03.38algeI guess you also have to update your patch, cause you are now using  CONFIG_MACH_BLUEANGEL_LEDS=m but with current htcblueangel.diff (07-19) compilation fails at "arch/arm/mach-pxa/htcblueangel/htcblueangel_leds.c:234: error: unknown field ..."
18:37.20*** join/#htc-linux rob_w (n=bob@p213.54.218.173.tisdip.tiscali.de)
18:40.19algehi rob_w, could you please check if your new defconfig file also needs newer patches?
18:40.58rob_walge, is it not working ?
18:41.12algenot compiling
18:41.16rob_wwhat ?
18:41.23rob_wwhere does it break
18:41.35algehtcblueangel_leds
18:41.53algeguess your patch is now older than the config file
18:42.13rob_wwhat does htcblueangel_leds say ?
18:42.40algearch/arm/mach-pxa/htcblueangel/htcblueangel_leds.c:234: error: unknown field `hw_duty_get' specified in initializer
18:42.46rob_wbut u finished a zImage , right
18:42.46alge... and so on
18:42.56algeno
18:43.28rob_wdid u implement htcblueangel_leds into the kernel ?
18:43.50rob_wmake it a module .. check if led support in general is also selected
18:44.27algeCONFIG_CLASS_LEDS=y ist set
18:44.41algeand CONFIG_MACH_BLUEANGEL_LEDS=m
18:44.57algebut that comes from your config file
18:45.08algeif i di not mix up things
18:45.18alges/di/did/
18:46.00rob_wa bit strange .. as u say BA_LEDS is a module .. you should be able to compile the kernel itself
18:46.40rob_wah now i know
18:47.16rob_wdeselct htcbluangel_leds for now .,.i am able to compile it .. so i would need to update some patches ..
18:47.54algeok, i understand now, of course zImage has been built, but oe stops working, so I have to disable BA_LEDS.
18:48.45algeI just thought you had been working on the led stuff because it was in your config file.
18:49.12rob_wyeah .   iwas
18:49.27rob_wyou will need to change include/linux/leds
18:49.44algehow
18:50.16rob_wget the .12 tree and compare that leds.h to the .16 include/linux/leds.h
18:50.27rob_wwe altered the led interface a bit
18:51.34algeI recognized already that hw_duty_get is now blink_frequency_get, but there was also another function name that changed ...
18:53.52rob_wyeah get the xanadux .12 and compare
18:54.15rob_wmy wife needs cookies .. i brb from hte gasstation ;-)

20:28.00rob_wany news alge
20:30.18algei disabled ba_LEDS, it compiles, but I still get no boot device ... I've to double check if I copied the right files to sd ...
20:31.37algecan pleas show your kernel commandline? maybe I'm stillmissing something
20:32.32algeI have: set CMDLINE "root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 console=tty0 "
20:33.13algeand the curious thong is, that the partitions p1 and p2 are reported from the kernel
20:33.22alges/thong/thing/
20:33.35rob_wset CMDLINE "root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 console=tty0"
20:34.07algestrange
20:34.13rob_windeed
20:34.52algeit cannot be related to the rootfs we are using at all, because at this point it doesnt natter
20:35.00rob_wi even boot opie on /dev/mmcblk0p3
20:35.34rob_wtry syncing your fat sd partition once more
20:35.43rob_wmaybe fat plays tricks on you
20:35.58algemaybe, I'll try now
20:39.21algestill the same
20:40.08rob_wwhat mkfs.xx did you use to make the rootfs partition ?
20:40.21algeext2
20:41.46rob_wreally strange
20:41.52algepartition type is 83
20:42.10rob_wthats cool
20:42.35alge...?
20:43.50rob_wit is either something really stupid .. or someone plays a trick on u
20:43.56algeyour patch is against that handhelds.org cvs kernel? maybe we differ here?
20:44.35algebut it applies whithout problems, so what
20:45.02rob_wright .. and i didnt touch mmc or asic support in my patches
20:45.57algeI got my kernel with something like
20:46.00algecvs://anoncvs@anoncvs.handhelds.org:/cvs/linux-2.6.16-hh2;method=pserver;module= linux/kernel26
20:46.02rob_whmm i am unsure how to proceed
20:46.51rob_wi was using hh4
20:47.16algedespite using hh2 I got hh5
20:47.16rob_wcat CVS/Tag
20:47.17rob_wNK2-6-16-hh4
20:47.53rob_wwell i wasnt compiling it inside oe ..
20:48.54algeI have no Tag files in my CVS dirs, maybe I checkout a new tree with an explicit tag
20:50.10rob_w?? Houston , we didnt get hte last message ..
20:51.10rob_wmy glibc generates locals .. i be back  in 15
20:51.21algeok
20:56.52algenow I get it once more with
