Any solution now here of running ubuntu without r&d mode enabled? If yes please put a linkback as I have read this thread with no success yet.

coz on tutorial from muhammad before need some R&D Mode flashing kernel... its dont need anymore???

what ubuntu version run on your N900?
what firmware you used now?
Its in your ubuntu can make some call or SMS?

thanks....

Re: [WIP] Ubuntu 9.10 on the N900
 
he just turns off the watchdogs via r&d.

you don't need that, that means: ubuntu doesn't need that.
if you see a reboot out of a sudden. you have to turn the watchdogs off or handle them...

  • -> if maemo wakes them up, you have to handle them by configuring watchdogs. otherwise they do what they should do:reset the machine.
  • -> if wd support is not in the kernel, you obviously need it in it
... or you ignore it and turn the wd off via r&d.


for the firmware: you find it in /lib/firmware...
calls and sms: ofono(from source, no arm binary)->telepathy ring(dito)->empathy(?)

Ok then how do i disable watchdog without enabling r&d mode? or at least configure it to not reboot? Cause if it reboots automatically I need to enable R&D

usually it gets disabled when the driver is loaded until gets woken up again. you can disable it only if the kerneldriver is configured to allow this.

that really is the good thing about maemo standard kernel: it won't let you unless you fire up r&d. this is a nice little stop sign that says: stop and think about what you are doing. i think i leave it in place.

Simple but needs kernel modification... Just compile your own kernel with CONFIG_WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT config set to disabled.

BTW found out this new script and said to be able to send replies back to watchdog to prevent it from rebooting... But seems like I can't get this to work...

Re: [WIP] Ubuntu 9.10 on the N900
 
very short description: what is the problem?

but: doesn't look like the ubuntu startscript, the script feels like one from fedora(?) therefore: does the script get called?

if not:
quick and dirty: put link in rcNN.d like chkconfig header suggests

but what's wrong with:
apt-get install watchdog

Re: [WIP] Ubuntu 9.10 on the N900
 
That is the problem... It isn't initiated on bootup :p
So I guess i'm on the wrong directory then... I've put mine on /etc/init.d/wd_n900. I thought it would still get initiated there.

lunat 2010-12-07 18:54
Re: [WIP] Ubuntu 9.10 on the N900
 
first off i do not understand why you don't just use the ubuntu script that comes with the wtchdog. but not my business...

putting something in /etc/init.d does not cause it to be called. you need the links in the runlevels. (alternatively convert the script to a upstart script)
so you have to link it in. eg:
Code:
cp -s /etc/init.d/yourscript /etc/rc1.d/S01yourscript
to call it in runlevel 1 you might want to have it called in (all)other runlevels and/or have the priority behind the S adjusted.
and if that doesn't work something with your booting is wrong and the /etc/event.d/rcX (rsp. /etc/init.d/rc ) doesn't get called.

EDIT:
spot in your script the line:
# chkconfig: 12345 01 99
that's to be done.
EDIT:
for ubuntu it says it needs this links:
---
# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop: 0 1 6
---

Well in the first place i'm not a linux guru so I really am not that familiar with the filesystem. I just read it here that there's a script which could communicate with watchdog so it won't reboot itself. And that got my interest and look at it and tested it :p
Also I didn't know there is already a script for watchdog that comes with maemo... :D

lunat 2010-12-07 19:56
Re: [WIP] Ubuntu 9.10 on the N900
 
sorry if i sounded arrogant. it was not ment that way. by no means,;)
just try to help.

please don't be mad at me for saying that i do not understand why you needed to manually install a script. i said i do not understand why you don't use the ubuntu script for it comes with the watchdog daemon. so if you have the watchdog daemon you normally should have the ubuntu script right in place without doing anything. so i was simply wondering why you seemingly replaced it with some other script. so no offence at all!

your script looks like fedora init scripts. that does not mean it is fedora but that's the biggest distribution that has scripts like this.

skimming over it, it looks like it does nothing essentially different than the ubuntu script. so it most likely should work.

the only reason i can see for it not even being called is that it simply is not linked into the runlevels. see below how to do that. that linking is usually done automatically. only for you manually installed the script you have to explicitly tell the system to use it and when. that's done by creating the links. again see below how to do that and maybe look at other initscripts for examples.

Code:
cp -s SOME.SCRIPT.WHEREEVER.IT.IS /etc/rcX.d/S01FANCYNAME
in rcX replace the X with a number. S is used for a daemon that is started and K one that is stopped. the two digits behind that are the order in which the scripts are started in a runlevel.

and if you have them in place, it either should work or you should see some error on the terminal and/or in the logs. i

/etc/watchdog.conf needs adjustment. thats where you define what the daemon should do.

Re: [WIP] Ubuntu 9.10 on the N900
 
:D Actually I wasn't mad or anything you just misinterpretted it :p

Yes I understood already the problem and your explanation, actually I already got it working now :)

I just explained why I used another watchdog script. So the simple answer is that I didn't know there is one already. Someone just referred me to that script when I asked so that's the one I used. :D

And ok might wanna try that default script now... So all I have to do is edit the watchdog.conf and all should be fine? Would that mean I wouldn't need the watchdog-omap.conf & watchdog-twl4030.conf to go around watchdog? Again thanks for the time!

Oh btw you can explain simplier... I know linux... It's just I don't bother to dwell deeper on it until now of course :)

lunat 2010-12-07 20:39
Re: [WIP] Ubuntu 9.10 on the N900
 
yes! there you are right. you need the configurations. and you need as many watchdogs running as you have wd-devices.
so for that you might want to go with your script.

Quote:

ok now what? T_T
R&D mode needs to be disabled to boot but when enabled whether I put my script or extend the interval of the default watchdog.conf the device reboots itself now...
If my mind is working right it seems like the device won't get to the point where it reads all my script. The watchdog just timesout on bootmenu.
Any ideas?

Do you know by any chance any kernel which has framebuffer or at least can fbcon be insmod?

Re: [WIP] Ubuntu 9.10 on the N900
 
it has. but...
but ali disabled it for some other issues(iirc usb driver, tradeoff with another usecase) in the version he originally made public together with an explanation how to enable it.
now i do not know if the version that maemo has, has it still disabled or enabled.
search for the thread in which ali anounces his n900 driver patches for uboot for details.

sry if it is late. i got no mail for this threat anymore.

/lib/modules has subdirectories. each of them contains parts of specific kernel. any kernel that as parts of it compiled as separate modules you need one such directory or that parts of the kernel are missing.
so if changed the kernel you will need the modules for the kernel.

/lib/firmware is different. it contains parts that depend on the devices. well, for you use the device via drivers it is also closely connected with the kernel. but in most cases you won't have to change the firmware if you change a kernel and vice versa.

so if it is one of the two that causes you the trouble, it is rather the first.

It's just easy... Just change EXT_CARD into INT_CARD on the item file of multiboot(Well that's what I did on bootmenu)...

Harder part is to partition your EMMC.. Don't ask me for a tutorial I'm bad at doing it. Just search this forum there's a bunch of tutorials on repartitioning EMMC with gparted or fdisk.

thats actualy straight forward. only boot into a different disk first. the easiest way(least effort) is to boot into a ramdisk. and do what you want to your disk from there.

(First of all, thanks to xnt14 for allowing me to host the file and giving me a subdomain - I've moved my files to http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/public/ so you can find everything from me there, again, thanks)

Mouse working! See this Note: as I said above, the mouse pointer is broken, this does NOT seem to be a calibration but a kernel module one, or a broken X/xorg configuration file, the pointer works fine in Fedora 12 and Mer, so I'm assuming this is a cannonical modified X problem, need assistance on this as Ubuntu is be very unusable with a broken pointer.
How unusable is unusable? The pointer is flipped, so up is down, the top part of the screen moves the pointer to the bottom side, and the far ends of the screen cannot be tapped without pressure on the bottom side of the screen, again, I need help from someone who knows C to fix this.

Quick instructions, I'm not really into sfdisk so the instructions are based on gparted, if anyone feels the instructions could be better then please feel free to post what you want :)

1. Connect the N900 to a PC running linux (Live CDs/Virtual machines will suffice).
2. Use gparted to partition the N900's MicroSD card, the image is 2.3GBs uncompressed, so you'll need at least 2.5GBs to run Ubuntu (3GBs if you want extra space for /home or apps).
3. Unpack the tar.bz2 into the root of the partition, an easy way to do this would be to use file-roller, the defualt archive manager in Ubuntu.
4. Disconnect the N900 from your PC.
5. Open terminal, type ls /dev/mmcblk1* to see the partitions on your MicroSD.
Assuming your partition is /dev/mmcblk1p2..
Code:
mkdir -p /mnt/ubuntu && mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /mnt/ubuntu
Code:
cp -r /lib/modules/* /mnt/ubuntu/lib/modules/
cp /lib/firmware/* /mnt/ubuntu/lib/firmware/
chroot /mnt/ubuntu /bin/bash
useradd -m <replace with your username here> (e.g useradd -m mohammad)
# fill in details as you wish.
visudo
# Edit the file and add your username to sudoers using visudo
# Example (replace my username with yours)
# # User privilege specification
# root        ALL=(ALL) ALL
# mohammad    ALL=(ALL) ALL
Code:
cp /usr/share/applications/gnome-terminal.desktop /home/mohammad/Desktop/
Code:
exit
6. Install bootmenu-n900 and add a bootmenu entry in /etc/bootmenu.d
Code:
vi /etc/bootmenu.d/ubuntu.ext.item
# Press I to enter input mode.
# Replace partition numbers with the ones on your device.
Code:
ITEM_NAME="Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic (external SD, partition 2)"
ITEM_ID="ubuntu"
ITEM_DEVICE="${EXT_CARD}p2"
ITEM_MODULES="mbcache jbd ext3"
ITEM_FSTYPE="ext3"
ITEM_FSOPTIONS="noatime,rw"
Shutdown the N900, hold the U key to go into flashing mode then
Code:
flasher-3.5 --enable-rd-mode --set-rd-flags=no-omap-wd,no-lifeguard-reset,no-ext-wd
The need for R&D mode will be fixed soon, I didn't save how I did last time so I'll need to figure it out again.

Reboot, and pick Ubuntu in the bootmenu and gnome desktop should start.

Edit: oh and to get BT working (thanks giannoug)
Code:
echo "00:11:22:33:44:55" > /sys/devices/platform/hci_h4p/bdaddr; modprobe -r hci_h4p; modprobe hci_h4p


I TRIED ALL THIS, but unfortunately, it seems that there is no Kernel to boot the Ubuntu. Pls kindly specify how to flash the kernel. I entered into R&D mode, but nothing happened.

lunat 2010-12-27 11:45
Re: [WIP] Ubuntu 9.10 on the N900
 
i repeat.
1. watchdogsupport is the key to get rid of r&dor leave it on
2. ubuntu uses a different "arch" than debian and for that matter maemo. (to simplify even more: it speaks a different languague, ) so you need a kernel that has support for this. maemo kernel hasn't. powerkernel has. but it fails.
3. mousesupport is actually touchscreensupport and it is the tsc2005 driver you need. as it is part of the kernel you need one for the particular kernel you use and nothing else.
4. i said it before: it makes no sense to use a maemo kernel. a linux( != maemo) kernel works best(something recent). so go and grab a 2.6.37 linux kernel put everything you need in and you are mostly good.
5. if you want to keep your maemo kernel your best bet is the powerkernel. otherwise you do not want to flash a linux kernel for maemo needs a maemo kernel and won't run with a linux kernel. (powerkernel is something inbetween)so you either kexec into linux from maemo or have a meamo kernel to boot maemo and a linux kernel to boot linux.

The need for R&D mode will be fixed soon, I didn't save how I did last time so I'll need to figure it out again.
Maybe it is because you have to handle watchdog. It's just an idea because that is a big problem if you try to run debian on the n900.
If "no-ext-wd" means "no external watchdog" than I'm right and you can go here under "Configure Base System" and look if you can use this solution for handling watchdog. ;)
