<jcbjoe> anyone here use linux on there exynos laptop ? anyone besdies wizzup i know he went to bed
<steev> jcbjoe: i do on the original chromebook (both samsung and hp)
<steev> and i mean, chromeos is linux so... perhaps a bit more specific?
<jcbjoe> steev: hi .. yea like gentoo or slackware on your chromebook
<jcbjoe> how many hours do you get with it ?
<steev> depends on use, around 12 or so
<steev> i mostly stick to cli though
<jcbjoe> me to
<jcbjoe> steev: what distor you on ?
<jcbjoe> distro*
<steev> gentoo
<jcbjoe> aw
<jcbjoe> steev: so you get 12 hours on gentoo nice
<steev> well, i mean, i'm a gentoo dev, so, you know, it kinda makes sense that i'd use gentoo
<jcbjoe> hehe
<jcbjoe> your not in #gentoo steev ? i #gentoo for n00bs like me ?
<jcbjoe> is*
<jcbjoe> i have gentoo on another vmware i love it .. im testing other distors right now to see what im going to put on my laptop
<steev> no, i avoid that cesspool of questions that can be found via a simple search of the internet
<jcbjoe> yea
<jcbjoe> or
<prometheanfire> ya, I don't go into #gentoo either :P
<steev> prometheanfire: to be fair, you don't go a lot of places
* prometheanfire waits for rc2
<jcbjoe> site:wiki.gentoo.org <keyword> site:gentoo.org <keyword> google inurl:gentoo <keyword>
<prometheanfire> more then you think
<jcbjoe> steev: its good for new comers #gentoo
<steev> prometheanfire: fine, never with me anymore :(
<jcbjoe> steev: is there a gentoo channel that has no questions like #gentoo
<jcbjoe> i really like gentoo a lot
<steev> nope, there are terrible questions in every channel really
<jcbjoe> dam
<steev> i just hang out in the channels that i actually care about
<prometheanfire> steev: oh, you mean physically, well I've been worn out
<prometheanfire> recovering
<steev> prometheanfire: did uh.... what's her face come back
<jcbjoe> steev: true / steve what do you dev for gentoo ?
<prometheanfire> steev: who?
<jcbjoe> or is that a g14 classifed topic
<steev> jcbjoe: not much, random stuff here and there, but i'm the arm team co-lead
<jcbjoe> nice
<steev> and i build the stageballs used for arm
* jcbjoe starts looking at chrome books
<steev> prometheanfire: stephanie?
<steev> shannon?
<jcbjoe> steev: it must be nice knowing what your doing . i just try to get the system up .. after that i just google everything to make sure everything works
<steev> WHY CAN I NEVER REMMEBER NAMES
<jcbjoe> steev: cause you compile stuff to much
<steev> jcbjoe: with experience comes knowledge
<steev> the more you utilize it, the more you learn, so you keep remembering that stuff cuz you keep running into it. it also helped that i worked at Genesi for a few years
<prometheanfire> steev: one of those is my girlfriend, one of those is someone else's fiance
<steev> prometheanfire: ah, well the one that is your girlfriend, i would hope someone else's fiance is not wearing you out
<steev> and i know which is which now
<prometheanfire> I did go visit her a few weeks ago
<steev> yar, whilst i was in vegas
<prometheanfire> 2 now
<prometheanfire> ja
<steev> i had less fun :(
<jcbjoe> steev: do you mind giving me a ruff guess on the chromebook name / proccessor .. im on the google chrome website .. i get paid in a couple of days and getting a laptop
<prometheanfire> just catching up
<steev> jcbjoe: uh, well, it's the older samsung 11"
<steev> if you want 11", then you should probably wait for the new one to come out
<jcbjoe> heh
<steev> otherwise the 13" from samsung is quite nice
<jcbjoe> 11 inch i can't
<jcbjoe> i need 15
<jcbjoe> o_O
* prometheanfire is waiting for 64bit arm now
<jcbjoe> or 17
<prometheanfire> that's kinda big
<steev> uh
<jcbjoe> yea lol i like laptops with big screens
<steev> 13" with 1080p
<steev> is fine
<jcbjoe> nice
<steev> well enjoy your shit battery life at 17"
<jcbjoe> yea
<jcbjoe> cuase it needs more resources to support the big as screen
<prometheanfire> broadwell E7450 or E7550
<prometheanfire> since noone makes quality arm laptops
<steev> there's no market for it
<prometheanfire> ya
<steev> i mean there's the novena, but i wouldn't exactly call it a laptop at the 2k price (although they do), which, one of the biggest selling points requires software to be run on a different computer
<prometheanfire> lololol
<jcbjoe> steev: do you have a lot of workspaces .. im trying to see how im going to set this up .. i like having browser and weechat on the same window
<jcbjoe> or do you use a lot of workspaces ?
<jcbjoe> im looking at this 11' on youtube
<jcbjoe> looks decent
<steev> i think i have 5 total when i'm in X
<jcbjoe> Samsung - 13.3" Chromebook 2 - Samsung Exynos 5 - 4GB Memory - 16GB eMMC - Luminous Titan
<jcbjoe> decent ^ ?
<jcbjoe> when i get my chromebook i hope you guys help out lol this looks crazy
<jcbjoe> i was just looking at that example
<steev> you can literally copy and paste that stuff into a terminal
<jcbjoe> steev: that looks old though http://linux-exynos.org/wiki/Main_Page < -- many guides
<steev> many guides because there are different chromebooks, and devices using exynos
<jcbjoe> would it apply ?
<jcbjoe> if that is to long i can is.gd it
<steev> yes, that's the one that goes with the first link
<jcbjoe> oh the xe503c32 are higher end
<jcbjoe> and 13 inch
<jcbjoe> gotcha
<jcbjoe> when is this chan normally alive ?

<Wizzup> hiya
<jcbjoe> Wizzup, i started a convo with you yesterday about your battery life
<jcbjoe> in #gentoo
<jcbjoe> how is gentoo on a chromebook and does everything work ?
<Wizzup> I stated it didn't, yesterday
<Wizzup> ;)
<Wizzup> it depends on the kernel (chromeos or mainline) and if you want to run binary drivers
<jcbjoe> oh
<jcbjoe> Wizzup, what do you run on your chromebook ?
<Wizzup> gentoo linux, chrome os kernel (and also mainline), no binary drivers (at least not mali)
<Wizzup> with that, wifi works, sound works, screen works, usb 2.0 and 3.0 works, hmdi out (kinda) works
<Wizzup> and with the right x driver 2d is doable
<Wizzup> video accel. decoding haven't tried
<Wizzup> but it was quite some work to set up
<Wizzup> so if you don't feel like spending quite some time to set it all up ... etc
<Wizzup> it's non trivial and you're mostly on your own :)
<jcbjoe> lol
<jcbjoe> i like gentoo so i must like pain / drama
<Wizzup> just saying
<Wizzup> but battery life is quite nice
<jcbjoe> you got a screenshot of your setup ?
<jcbjoe> also i was looking at a "Samsung - 13.3" Chromebook 2 - Samsung Exynos 5 - 4GB Memory - 16GB eMMC - Luminous Titan"
<Wizzup> that is the one I use atm
jcbjoe has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
jcbjoe has joined #linux-exynos
<Wizzup> 18:41 < Wizzup> that is the one I use atm
<jcbjoe> ...
<jcbjoe> was that for me ?
<Wizzup> yes
<jcbjoe> Wizzup, there was no link
<Wizzup> 18:26 < jcbjoe> also i was looking at a "Samsung - 13.3" Chromebook 2 - Samsung Exynos 5 - 4GB Memory - 16GB eMMC - Luminous Titan"
<jcbjoe> oh okk
<jcbjoe> wow you said 2d works ok if you get it working
<jcbjoe> Wizzup, youtube everything is good o it or do you switch to chomebook for that
<jcbjoe> it almost seems that you can gentoo in there use it daily but switch to chromebook for daily stuff or whatever
<Wizzup> no, I don't have chromeos on it
<jcbjoe> oh
<jcbjoe> pure gentoo
<Wizzup> the only thing I cannot do when watching videos up/down scaling
<Wizzup> you can watch 1080p, as long you don't scale it. for example, upscaling 720p to 1080p doesn't work well, but just watch it at 720p
<Wizzup> but still
<Wizzup> I wouldn't the support great ;-)
<Wizzup> alt. if you don't care too much, you can run a chroot next to chromeos
<Wizzup> s/next to/in/
<Wizzup> but that's not what this channel is for ;D
<jcbjoe> i see what you mean
<jcbjoe> so if its 108p
<jcbjoe> err
<jcbjoe> 1080p keep it at 1080p
<Wizzup> yes
<jcbjoe> Wizzup, if i got it and needed help who would hlep me .. you and steev kinda talk in here
<jcbjoe> but not really
<jcbjoe> lol
<Wizzup> but yeah, generally driver support is not like what you're used to if you're from intel
<Wizzup> yeah, I'm not really feeling like extensive help with certain steps already documented, but feedback on the wiki is good
<Wizzup> I mostly don't have too much spare time:)
<steev> it's documented for a reason
<steev> if you can't follow some simple steps, it's probably not for you
<Wizzup> [relatively simple] ;-)
<steev> Wizzup: considering you can copy and paste.... i mean, if you can't copy and paste, one should probably just pack up every computer in the house and return them
<Wizzup> hehe
<jcbjoe> lol
<jcbjoe> im reading it as we speak

<steev> Wizzup: btw, minor nit, there's no point in running "make uImage dtbs modules" if the uImage will not be used, i think you meant "make zImage dtbs modules" - granted, uImage will built the zImage target first, but still
<Wizzup> yes, I believe I did that wrong for some time, and then javier__ told me
<Wizzup> I used to think uImage was the 'raw' image
<Wizzup> u for uncompressed, or something silly.
<Wizzup> only later I found out it meant u-boot
jcbjoe has quit [Quit: Leaving]
<si1v3r> I've been using the umage made from make uimage. Works fine.
<si1v3r> I just run: LOADADDR=0x40008000 make uImage, then copy /arch/arm/boot/uImage to /boot/vmlinux.uimg
<Wizzup> :)

<steev> si1v3r: sure, not saying you can't do that, but without passing a loadaddr, make uImage fails, and these are instructions for people who don't know better
<steev> not to mention, it doesn't jive with what the rest of the instructions state. just heading for correctness, not "well this works for 1 other person"
