[00:33:10] <DevWork_> I;m having trouble making opengles in xbmc's package for mali. Apparently the opengl code uses git and has a git clone address that wont work because of dump https or something
[00:36:40] <DevWork_> jacked up makefile or something, just had to GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY for opengles
[01:30:40] <DevWork_> CedarV is having issues though, im running make for it. I get "gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file. I guess it didnt download cedarx-libs.tar.gz?
[15:54:55] <olia13> Hello
[15:55:21] <olia13> my debian image doesn't detect usb storage, i made it myself, what can I do?
[15:55:47] <HeHoPMaJIeH> olia13: hello, what dmesg says about usb ports
[15:55:59] <nedko> you can check if you have usb mass storage compiled in
[15:56:27] <olia13> nedko: how can I check that?
[15:56:45] <olia13> HeHoPMaJIeH: I'm going to try
[15:56:52] <HeHoPMaJIeH> dmesg | grep usb
[15:57:28] <HeHoPMaJIeH> olia13: give us information about board :)
[15:57:49] <nedko> HeHoPMaJIeH: if you have /proc/config.gz , you can do:
[15:57:55] <nedko> grep USB_STORAGE /proc/config.gz
[15:58:22] <nedko> otherwise, you have to check in the .config in your linux kernel source tree or in the config file that was probably installed in /boot
[15:58:27] <HeHoPMaJIeH> nedko: zcat /proc/config.gz | grep .....
[15:58:39] <nedko> uh, yes
[15:58:47] <nedko> i meant "zgrep"
[15:58:48] <HeHoPMaJIeH> usually usb mass storage is enabled by default in kernel config
[15:59:15] <olia13> HeHoPMaJIeH: I have the olinuxino a13 non wifi
[16:00:07] <olia13> it matters if the usb is formated in fat32 or not?
[16:00:15] <HeHoPMaJIeH> it doesnt matter
[16:00:25] <HeHoPMaJIeH> go to your kernel source directory
[16:00:36] <HeHoPMaJIeH> and
[16:00:43] <HeHoPMaJIeH> grep --colour USB_STORAGE .config
[16:00:57] <HeHoPMaJIeH> also
[16:01:12] <HeHoPMaJIeH> run lsusb command on your board
[16:01:56] <HeHoPMaJIeH> result of grep command may contain something like this
[16:02:00] <HeHoPMaJIeH> CONFIG_USB_STORAGE=y
[16:02:33] <HeHoPMaJIeH> olia13: did you tried some other usb device like keyboard or mouse
[16:02:33] <HeHoPMaJIeH> ?
[16:02:57] <olia13> yes the keyboard mouse and even a usb modem works
[16:03:44] <olia13> HeHoPMaJIeH where is the kernel source directory?
[16:04:26] <HeHoPMaJIeH> do you use any how to , to build your image ?
[16:04:40] <olia13> I mean what folder exactly is
[16:04:46] <olia13> Yes, one moment
[16:04:57] <HeHoPMaJIeH> usually linux-sunxi
[16:05:08] <olia13> http://olimex.wordpress.com/2014/01/15/building-debian-linux-bootable-sd-card-with-hardware-accelerated-video-decoding-and-kernel-3-4-for-a13-olinuxino/
[16:05:18] <olia13> I use that one
[16:05:28] <olia13> yes linux-sunxi should be
[16:05:42] <olia13> ok, I'll try that and I'll tell you
[16:05:45] <HeHoPMaJIeH> k
[16:08:27] <nedko> meh, i was replying to HeHoPMaJIeH while i intended to reply to olia13 :]
[16:09:00] <olia13> nedko it doesn't matter :)
[16:21:07] <HeHoPMaJIeH> bye all :) i am going to get a drink
[16:42:08] <olia13> nedko it detects it but it doesn't automatically mount it, i mean it doesn't appear on the desktop
[16:42:55] <nedko> ah
[16:43:10] <nedko> so check for filesystem support
[16:43:52] <nedko> i don't know the user mode automount infrastructure ised in debian though
[16:45:06] <olia13> ok thank you nedko
[17:56:21] <DevWork_> Ack, I figured out everything, except how to get more space to compile xbmc.
[17:56:34] <DevWork_> Device ran out of space. Hard to think all 8 gigs are out.
[17:57:09] <DevWork_> rootfs is full, but /dev/mmcblk has space
[17:57:52] <DevWork_> resize2fs i guess?
[23:07:33] <tiziano1> need help with A10-lime not booting with (4Gb) sd-card made from a10_Lime_debian_second_release.7z
