01:12 < leonel> hi again.
01:12 < leonel> i still have the same problem.
01:12 < leonel> pleas somebody.
01:12 < leonel> i need solve this problema.
01:12 < leonel> problem
01:12 < leonel> i do modprobe usb_storage.
01:12 < leonel> but this usb is still fail.
01:12 < leonel> i read in google that some puppy linux have the same problem.
01:13 < leonel> anybody here test the stable 8.0?

10:33 < ch172> I'm still not yet able to compile linux26 with kernel 2.6.35.4 and unionfs patch. Has someone else the same problem or is it a problem that's only on my machine?
11:51 <@rxr> I already confirmed that is an issue
11:52 <@rxr> but we do not all have time to fix such random reaking Linus kernel changes every day, ...
11:53 < CIA-32> rene * r37634 /trunk/package/x86/powertop/powertop.desc: * updated powertop (1.10 -> 1.13)
12:09 <@rxr> though although I ahve to work on this Sunday, I could try to finally squeeze in fixing this unionfs thing agin

14:28 < awn> Hey, i'am trying to build a toolchain for my ATOM board used T2, but ran into a problem when compiling gcc
14:28 < awn> the build script complains with the following error:
14:28 < awn> the build script complains with the following error:checking dynamic linker characteristics... configure: error: Link tests are not allowed after GCC_NO_EXECUTABLES
14:29 < awn> I'am new to the T2 project, and could use a pointer or two on how to debug this problem
15:06 <@rxr> hm, no real step-by-step procedure to investigate such heavy-weight pacakge failures
15:06 <@rxr> what exactly did you select?
15:07 < awn> sorry about that, here comes my configuration
15:08 < awn> Generic system, menimal package, and initrd ram fs
15:08 <@rxr> and not much more config changs made ?
15:08 < awn> arch: x86-64, optimise for atom, bootleader isolinux, and marked as cross build
15:09 <@rxr> hm, then your base linux distro may not be too complete
15:09 <@rxr> can it compile non-trivial programs?
15:09 <@rxr> it's ubuntu I guess ?
15:09 < awn> yes, it is ubuntu
15:10 < awn> i can compile a cross compiler on my host
15:10 <@rxr> hm
15:10 < awn> so I beleave i have the needed packages...
15:10 <@rxr> if you got a 64bit kernel you can try disabling the t2 cross compile option
15:10 <@rxr> if it still fails you really miss something vital on your host, or it is broken
15:11 <@rxr> you can install T2 in a VM (or real hardware) and build on that
15:11 < awn> but i'am not very used to ubuntu, normally i run gentoo, and have a dual boot, i can try gentto if you thinks have a better change there
15:11 <@rxr> hm, we do not really have many people trying wit gentoo, so no idea
15:12 < awn> year, i look at that.. but I would really like to get it up and running on my native system.
15:12 <@rxr> but given it usually bulds from source changes are certainly higher that the compiler and basic headers are in a functional state :-)
15:12 < awn> what distro do you use??
15:12 <@rxr> well, t2 ._)
15:12 <@rxr> :-) even
15:12 < awn> ahh.. is t2 based on something I might know??
15:12 <@rxr> you can use t2 as a source distribution like gentoo
15:12 <@rxr> t2 is a fork from rock linux
15:13 < awn> cool, where do I find some information on this//
15:13 <@rxr> I was with rock linux for some many years, before I forked t2 of to prevent it from death, ...
15:13 <@rxr> on wikipedia if they would not constantly delete our article :-(
15:13 <@rxr> http://lwn.net/Articles/397669/
15:13 < awn> okay.. I dont know linux rock but I will do some research
15:13 <@rxr> http://www.t2-project.org/about.html
15:13 < awn> thanks
15:14 <@rxr> well, rock linux is not really anymore, ...
15:14 <@rxr> rock linux started a s source based distribution in 1998, actually some time before Gentoo
15:14 < awn> okay, I have read the lwn article (this is where I got top know T2)
15:16 < awn> but you were talking about running T2 as a source dist, like gentoo, and I would like to give this a try
15:16 <@rxr> you can just install a "minimal" release build and "Emerge" the rest
15:16 <@rxr> kind of like on Gentoo, we even renamed Build-Pkg Emerge-Pkg to make Gentoo'rs fell at home some years ago :-)
15:17 <@rxr> http://t2-project.org/documentation/installintro.html
15:17 < awn> okay, i will give it a try...
15:21 <@rxr> you could also just try buliding your t2 target in gentoo though
15:21 <@rxr> maybe that works :-)
15:22 < awn> 20 minutes ago, I started upgrading my ubuntu to 10.10, and I will try se if this will do the trick, when I try gentoo, and last shot is the T2 distro..
15:23 < awn> but I'am still waiting for the upgrade to complete
