does anybody have the kernel ddeb for the 1105 omap release hwpack?

by Peter Maydell

I'm looking for a copy of the ddeb (ie the debug info) for the omap kernel in the 1105 release. That used to be here: http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/universe/l/linux-linaro-omap/linux-image-2.6.3… but unfortunately the archive expired it last night. Does anybody happen to have a copy lying around that they could send me? (Also can we sort this out so we stop expiring the ddebs, at least for our release kernels?) Thanks in advance -- PMM

Action: Hardware

by Joey Stanford

Hi Gang, Two actions please: 1) Everyone: If you are coming to the Connect in Cambridge, please bring as much of your hardware as possible. Several of our team coming from China will not be able to bring theirs and they'll need a loaner at the Connect. 2) For Linaro assignees: If you've gotten a board from me or your TL in the last two months, PLEASE make sure you update your HW records. See "List of Hardware" section on https://wiki.linaro.org/Internal/Hardware Joey

ARM: new cross-distro@ list

by Steve McIntyre

Hi folks, Many GNU/Linux distributions are doing some ARM porting; this tends to result in work duplication, and there doesn't seem to be a general purpose forum to bring ARM porters together. We're inviting developers of GNU/Linux distributions with an interest in ARM to join a new "cross-distro" list, hosted at Linaro: http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/cross-distro Any ARM Linux / Free Software discussion is welcome on the list, for instance porting software to build on ARM, toolchain problems, dealing with new ABIs, Thumb-2, NEON, kernel problems, announcement of new tools etc. Cheers, -- Steve McIntyre steve.mcintyre(a)linaro.org <http://www.linaro.org/> Linaro.org | Open source software for ARM SoCs

Re: First RC release on Monday, outstanding items...

by Zach Pfeffer

The first 11.07 Android rc builds are out. Bero and Mathieu, would you test the LEB's that came out for iMX53 and Snowball and attach logs to this email? I've also filed bugs on things that aren't working right. We have till UTC tomorrow to finish up the RC, but these should give us a good baseline. Please concentrate on the remaining issues. Overall we're looking good. Botao, Any chance we can get a Samsung build into the build system? ;) Here are all the builds: Panda https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/panda-11.07-release… linaro-image-tools 376 Plug into DVI port, 640x480p @60Hz DVI 0xbench runs Bug: HDMI fails to come up on panda 11.07 rc build 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/linaro-android/+bug/812097 Beagle C4 https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/beagle-11.07-releas… linaro-image-tools 376 Plug into DVI port, 1280x720p @58Hz DVI 0xbench runs Beagle xM https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/beagle-11.07-releas… linaro-image-tools 376 Display doesn't come up Bug: Display fails to come up on DVI or HDMI on beagle xm 11.07 rc build 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/linaro-android/+bug/812098 Panda-LEB https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/leb-panda-11.07-rel… linaro-image-tools 376 Screen comes up in 1920x1080p@60Hz DVI, then the build crashes Bug: Build crashes on Panda LEB 11.07 rc build 1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/linaro-android/+bug/812100 iMX53 ~linaro-android/leb-imx53-11.07-release Snowball ~linaro-android/leb-snowball-11.07-release -Zach On 17 July 2011 17:48, Zach Pfeffer <zach.pfeffer(a)linaro.org> wrote: > Right now you'd just > > git clone git://git.linaro.org/android/platform/manifests.git > cd manifests > git checkout linaro_android_2.3.4 > > > Add the test to all the manifests: > > default.xml LEB-iMX53.xml LEB-panda.xml > > then something like: > > git remote add manifests > ssh://pfefferz@git.linaro.org/srv/git.linaro.org/git/android/platform/manifests.git > > git push manifests HEAD > > When we cut the official builds we take the pinned manifest from a > successful build and check it in on something like > > linaro-android-11.07-release > > -Zach > > On 17 July 2011 02:47, Bernhard Rosenkranzer > <bernhard.rosenkranzer(a)linaro.org> wrote: >> On 15 July 2011 20:57, Zach Pfeffer <zach.pfeffer(a)linaro.org> wrote: >>> Multimedia test framework >>> Pull into official manifest >> >> Is there any trick to get this into every manifest, or do I have to >> edit all the LEB-*.xml files? >> Will get the "no test files" dialog in today... >> >>> Freescale >>> Need to get the current build in the build system >> >> Some good news on that one: >> It builds 100% these days, even in android-build. >> https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~berolinux/imx53-20110706-0/ > > Cool, thanks for the great work.
