Dmitry,

That's what I did in my last commit to linux-rp-2.6.24. If you do an mtn 
pull  mtn up. The defconfig-tosa should have


CONFIG_JFFS2_LZO=y
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECS=m

Anything else I'm missing?

Dmitry,

Did you just kexec or reflash the device to reboot?

I reflashed and it didn't boot. The current tosa 2.6.24 kernel built 
from the head of the stable branch should be the same as the r17 and r18 
release in the unstable link. The irreproducibility concerns me, 
something's wrong...

2.6.23 is broken in terms of suspend/resume and I'm not going to even try

I second this. I can spend some time testing on tosa but I won't have
the time to help in development to be honest.

I would love to see Dmitry have commit rights to the OE repo as he's

You assume that angstrom only targets PDAs, it doesn't. I have *zero* 
interest in syncing solutions, and to be honest are in the application 
domain, not in the distro domain. So if you want to have syncing, start 
poking the developers of the PIM suite (gpe, opie, o-hand etc) to see if 
they have solutions for that. If they have, then update OE to have 
recipes for it.

2008-09-05 Thread Andrea Adami
Slightly OT,

I would guess we could easily gain new testers (and perhaps mentors)
adding the  linux-kexecboot 'second stage bootloader' to the
autobuilder.

Boot from SD/CF/USB = quicker test, no flashing

Most of the above mentioned machines only need a final defconfig
update to match the mtd size-limits. Disabling networking seems
enough.

So we need:
1) new linux-kexecboot defconfigs
2) kexecboot-kernel added to the autobuilder (probably we don't need installkit)
3) some noise on OESF (lot of users there)

Being that this leads to the generation of images with kernel in
/boot, some  decisions have to be urgently taken by distro-mantainers.

just my 2 (euro)cents
Andrea

As the situation is now there is no other way of doing sth. like this. 
Of course it would be nicer to have a package that basically says:
take this defconfig (specific to each machine) and build  your kernel 
with it. The whole kernel build infrastructure would need work to do 
this. So I created a new
kernel recipe. For other machines its just a matter of adding the kernel 
patches for the machine and a matching defconfig.

I am using OE.dev for a longer time and I don't want to return to

I build my own tree for my experiments (see link below). I can
eventually upload my images (and update proposed work-arounds on the

Unless someone can come up with something that garantees at least one

I still have my tosa but have to come up with a new battery solution
since the old one died (swelled up to the point that it wouldn't fit

Having just had a response from Paul S. it would seem that all of his machines 
are no longer mentored either due to lack of time, unless someone else 
steps up. So your plan gets +1 from me, although some testing would be very 
helpful if there are people around willing to test.

Cheers,
Paul

2008-09-04 Thread Ian Bonham
I'm lost!

I've got my SL-C3000 useable (Thanks Stanislav!), but how many machines is
Angstrom trying to support now?

I just get the feeling at the moment that Angstrom is a build of
OpenEmbedded, and that build seems to be forking in many directions. I look
at the feeds and see some software works on some units, but not on others.
I've tried my damnedest to get a build enviro working right for Spitz, but
just lack some guidance. Stanislav has given a lot of his time in pvt mails
which I appriciate, but I end up wondering if this is going anywhere? Maybe
I have Distro fatigue?

I've mentioned this before, but maybe if there was a focus on a core group
of software, that gave people a useable machine that would sync with a
desktop for contacts etc, we might start to get a bigger core of people to
Angstrom.

In essence, is it worth staying with Angstrom? What is the target userbase?

Thanks,

Ian

[Angstrom-devel] Machine mentors for h5000, c7x0, spitz, tosa

2008-09-03 Thread Paul Eggleton
Hi there,

Are there mentors for these machines? If so could their names be added to the 
machine mentors page [1] ? If there is a lack of such a person, who decides 
about the suitability of images to be made stable for those machines?

Cheers,
Paul

I think going back to the good-old dumping untested stuff in releases 
would actually be an improvement over the current mentor apathy.
Unless someone can come up with something that garantees at least one 
person has tested it before dumping it online.

KOen
