[02:18] <temp> Hello, does somebody know how to boot with tv output with a beagleboard and 11.04 image?

[03:13] <twb> So <coworker> was burgled last night, and suddenly I'm raising the priority of doing whole-disk encryption on my new netbook.
[03:14] <twb> lilstevie: am I likely to encounter any problems doing whole-disk LUKS encryption of Debian/Ubuntu on the eMMC of a TF101?
[03:15] <twb> (I nearly bought one yesterday, but I decided to wait a month until the 3G model comes out, so I don't actually have one to test yet.)
[03:16] <lilstevie> 3G one won't be able to do this stuff to just FYI
[03:16] <lilstevie> and whole disk encryption would have some issues
[03:18] <twb> eI'm assuming the 3G one will be identical except for having a 3G device jumpered to a USB or PCIE header
[03:20] <twb> Hmm, no mention of hardware AES acceleration for the Tegra 250 T20
[03:24] <lilstevie> 3G one will feature the new Secure Boot key
[03:24] <lilstevie> and yes, the AP20 most certainly has an AES accelerator
[03:25] <twb> Fuck (re secure boot); yay (re AP20)
[03:25] <twb> I said T20 not AP20 based on https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Tegra_2
[03:26] <lilstevie> eh, they are very similar
[03:26] <twb> Nod
[03:26] <lilstevie> in any case, SBK is handled by the AES accelerator
[03:27] <twb> SBK = Secure Boot Key?
[03:28] <lilstevie> yeah
[03:28] <twb> And because TF101G has SBK, I wouldn't be able to reflash it with Debian?
[03:32] <lilstevie> well all tf101's have an SBK set
[03:32] <lilstevie> just last time the SBK leaked
[03:33] <lilstevie> and ASUS cracked it and all newer devices starting with B7O series devices (random assortment of them) have the new SBK
[03:35] <lilstevie> given that the tf101g's have been manafactured since the changeover happened
[03:39] <twb> Ah, OK
[03:39] <twb> So should I wait and get a TF101G, and hope that someone leaks the SBK key quickly, or should I just get a TF101 and a 3G dongle?
[03:40] <lilstevie> well the SBK /may/ have already leaked ;)
[03:40]  * twb reads http://androidroot.mobi/technical/tf-secure-boot-key/
[03:42]  * Martyn has just about gotten the hp touchsmart to run arbitrary code
[03:43] <Martyn> they aren't using trustzone, thank goodness
[03:43] <lilstevie> Martyn: :)
[03:44] <Martyn> still a long, long, long way from getting u-boot or any arbitrary bootloader on there
[03:44] <Martyn> but I can crash WebOS, and that's a start
[03:44]  * twb wishes there was enough consumer demand to make handsets fungible, like peecees
[03:44] <Martyn> supposedly there are some units that shipped with Android, according to Gizmodo
[03:44] <Martyn> no details available though (and they are running froyo)
[03:44] <lilstevie> Martyn: yeah I heard about that
[03:45] <Martyn> My big issue, right now, is chasing down the IO slowdown issue with cortex A9 SMP
[03:45] <Martyn> right now, I'm worried the problem lies in the SCU
[03:46] <Martyn> so I'm trying to get a kernel where the SCU is disabled but still SMP
[03:46] <Martyn> and getting ftrace and oprofile working on STmicro
[03:50] <Martyn> IT's really bugging me that disk IO, usb IO, emmc IO are all affected by the bug
[03:50] <Martyn> and this is a pretty serious bug ..

[04:58] <julumme> hi guys, I'm trying to compile lirc on beagleboard, but the make will complain about genksyms:  scripts/genksyms/genksyms: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
[04:58] <julumme> file genksyms says: genksyms: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, not stripped
[04:59] <julumme> should it be for armel ?
[04:59] <julumme> I have successfully compiled the kernel from those sources (cross compiled, though)
[05:00] <julumme> after compiling, I copied those sources also over to ubuntu that is running on beagle

[09:13] <Guest68784> can anyone help me in arm9 in a custom board on a custom platform
[09:13] <Guest68784> ??
[09:15] <ogra_> beyond thatr fact that we dont support such old arches with ubuntu, you could just tra to ask, probably someone can help

[21:13] <jo-erlend> Oneiric comes with a server edition for ARM, right? I thought perhaps I could use my IGEPv2 (OMAP3) as a mikroserver. Will I still have to install the Linaro kernel and what kind of other obstacles should I be prepared for?
[21:22] <jo-erlend> It's been a couple of years since I played with that card, I think. It's a waste. I'd like to use it for _something_ :)
