Hi,
I'm playing around with the daily snapshots.
Currently I'm using the snapshot from 20100929 on an EBVBeagle C2.
In order to see home exactly I'm cooking it you can look here:
http://ebvbeagle.blogspot.com/2010/09/linaro-on-beagle.html
It comes up more or less happily, but as soon as I connect either my
mcs7830 based USB to ethernet adapter, my USB mouse, or my USB keyboard
to the USB hub I don't see anything happening.
No logs from the kernel buffer and no udev events with udevadm monitor.
With some old Angstrom image I have lying around I can see the events.
With Linaro it looks like udev is running.
Either me or the image is missing something.
Is it time to recompile the kernel and/or write some udev rules, or does
this image try to use some other mechanism for hot plugging I'm not
aware of?
Regards,
Robert

I'm working on building in ARM cross compile support to the Ubuntu
kernel packaging. I am encountering the following error:
fakeroot debian/rules binary-omap arch=armel
.....
dh_gencontrol -plinux-image-2.6.35-22-omap
dpkg-gencontrol: error: current host architecture 'amd64' does not
appear in package's architecture list (armel)
dh_gencontrol: dpkg-gencontrol -plinux-image-2.6.35-22-omap
-ldebian/changelog -Tdebian/linux-image-2.6.35-22-omap.substvars
-Pdebian/linux-image-2.6.35-22-omap returned exit code 255
make: *** [binary-omap] Error 9
I have not successfully found a way to override the architecture. Anyone
have any ideas? I've tried the various forms of
dh_gencontrol -p$(pkgimg) -a$(arch)
dh_gencontrol -p$(pkgimg) -- -a$(arch)
export DH_OPTIONS="-a$(arch)" && dh_gencontrol -p$(pkgimg)

Hi,
Tagging bugs is not only good practice but makes tracking and sorting so much easier. With
this in mind I came up with a list of tags that can be consulted when reporting bugs. Please
take a look at:
http://wiki.linaro.org/Process/Bugs/Tags
Ubuntu bug tags [1] also still apply, the Linaro specific ones are just to further classify bugs
for Linaro.
Please feel free to suggest changes/corrections.
Regards,
Jamie.

The Linaro Toolchain Working Group is pleased to announce
the availability of a "developer preview" of Valgrind
which includes the support for ARM and Thumb which has
recently been added by the Valgrind developers.
Our aim with this preview release is to advertise
Valgrind's improved ARM support and encourage people
to try it out and find bugs before the official 3.6.0
release. Please report bugs via upstream's BTS:
http://valgrind.org/support/bug_reports.html
or you can ask on linaro-toolchain(a)lists.linaro.org
if you have any problems.
This release is a snapshot of upstream subversion; it
should generally work but you may encounter bugs, especially
if you run it on hand-optimised assembly that uses obscure
instructions.
New (upstream) features in this snapshot include:
* Greatly improved support for ARM
* Support for the Thumb instruction set
* Support for NEON and VFPv3 instructions
Known issues:
* callgrind has difficulty identifying ARM function
call and return so may not produce useful results
Downloads are available from the Linaro Overlay PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~linaro-maintainers/+archive/overlay
...so if you're running Linaro on an ARM system you
should be able to just install it with
'apt-get install valgrind'.

DONE
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hello,
I just sent these patch series to linux-omap upstream. These patch series fixes
and improves the support for IGEP v2 board and I think could be interesting
to include in Maverick and linaro 2.6.35. Please consider to add, thanks.
Kind regards,
Enric
