Same here. None of the available images work. The kernel seems to be
a patched copy of some kernel devel project state. Any chance to
rebase that on something current? Looks like the sources come from
some git, but where?


The first thing you guys could do is provide some more substantial info
of what you are actually testing. Build numbers are not really telling.


The OP was referring to "Raspberry Pi 2B". That's what I tried. All
three images (factory, devel, devel:staging) show the same behavior.


[...]
Ludwig's serial log is from the Pi 2. The Pi 2 is still not supported by
the mainline Linux kernel and therefore not by the openSUSE kernel
either. The kernel-rpi2 package is built from:

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:ARM:Factory:Contrib:RaspberryPi2/kernel-source

These Contrib packages have no magic cron jobs unlike the openSUSE
kernels and thus need to be manually updated like any other package, via
osc bco / sr, by whomever cares about them.


The kernel-source.changes looks like some script pulled patches from
a git repo. Unfortunately the package gives no hint from which repo.
It must be something based on the openSUSE kernel git repo I guess.
So it's not as simple as branch and submit. If that was the case
we'd see patch lines in the spec file.


I guess the kernel will be from somewhere at
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/ - there's several branches
including an rpi-4.4.y that you might want to try building and packaging.


Do we have some spec file template that shows how to build some
"upstream" kernel in a way that is compatible with the official
openSUSE kernel packaging?

2015-12-21 Thread Michael Emory Cerquoni 
I can tell you my biggest source of frustration is there is very
little if any correct information/documentation posted anywhere about
opensuse-arm on Raspberry Pi2.  I have been trying to get myself more
oriented but I can barely even get the image to boot I have to use an
older version just to even get a log in prompt.  If people are
frustrated this probably why, I have spent weeks trying to even get
basic functionality with little luck.  I did just acquire a second pi2
for dev stuff but my time is very limited in terms of being able to
fix stuff, plus I am very new to Arm and Raspberry Pi2 I have a lot to
learn!  Thanks everyone I know working on opensource volunteer efforts
can be thankless and sometimes frustrating work, I really do
appreciate the help I have received so far!

I've used it for the Tegra TX1 kernel and it worked for me:


https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:ARM:Factory:Contrib:Tegra/kernel-tx1

During your absence someone had reported your awesome script were not
working any more - have you tested or fixed it lately?

Yes, but it was diluted by talking about "any of the Raspberry Pi
systems" - Raspberry Pi and Raspberry Pi 2 are very different, not just
ARMv6 vs. ARMv7 but also the kernel situation, as I outlined.

I mainly meant, tell us the download location (project) where you got
the image from. There's :upstream vs. :RaspberryPi1 vs. the new official
one and :RaspberryPi2 vs. :Staging that I thought Dirk said was obsoleted...

You'd be surprised that some people still complain about ancient images
from Bernhard they saw in some old blog post that were never officially
built in OBS by any of us! ;)

Cheers,
Andreas
