Hi all,

I've successfully tested the UPnP demo in my office but would appreciate
someone else taking a bash.

Unfortunately you currently need my branch from poky-contrib (josh/demo)
and the corresponding branch from meta-demo (josh/demo).

The renderer and controller are installed together in the
poky-image-rygel image (I've been using the -live variant).

I needed to use amixer to enable the soundcard and increase the volume
on the netbook I was using.

"amixer set Master on
amixer set Master 75"

Run rygel from a terminal and launch gupnp-av-cp and you should be able
to set play music from a content store on the device. I haven't tested
video...

I need to tweak the recipes some more so that:
* Rygel is configured and started automatically at boot on the rygel
image
* All of the required recipes are self contained in the master branch
meta-demo overlay.

I think this may mean using bbappend to extend recipes where I've
currently modified them in the main meta overlay, rather than
replication a recipe with the same PN and PV.

I'll probably work on this tomorrow.

Cheers,
Joshua

Great job Josh!!! I would have like to give it a try but I don't have a netbook to try. Looks like the drivers will not work on qemu.

Thanks,

Quick question which I think Scott R needs the URLs for his user manual, so
the eclipse plugin will be:

What about everything else, they'll be http://yoctoproject.org/downloads any

I've asked these questions among several others in a new thread.

I have added the COMMERCIAL_LICENSE bits to my local.conf and mediatomb built after that.

building poky-image-rygel-live, gupnp-dlna do_configure is failing with:

configure: error: Package requirements (gstreamer-0.10 >=
0.10.29.2) were not met:

I'd like to understand a full picture of this demo just in case others are
also interested in the test. From what I read so far:
Mark works on an NAS server
Darren covers a media server with mediatomb
Josh sits on UPnP renderer/controller with rygel and gupnp tools

So is the demo chained as below:

NAS server provides media contents which are then found and exported
by mediatomb which then are found by UPnP controller which then points to
the UPnP renderer for final output. Here UPnP controller and renderer may
or may not be the same board.

what Josh wants people to test here is self-contained in one image which
contains both renderer/controller and server (local media files), which hasn't
been connected to other bits yet.

Is above understanding correct?

Richard, Scott:

Here is what I did to create the blacksand sdk live image with a source tarball. I still need to include the docs and release notes at the top level, but we now have the basic infrastructure in place.

2 changes where required, first to the local.conf file to include the serial port changes (with one additional tweak):

SYSLINUX_OPTS_atom-pc = "serial 0 115200"
SERIAL_CONSOLE_atom-pc = "115200 ttyS0"
APPEND_atom-pc = "console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0"


And then a new image, that I named poky-image-spec-live, pretty straight forward, we just need to edit the build_src_tarball_bin to include the docs and release notes.

Hi all,

I recently reported several zypper bugs specifically for arm, after
some deeper investigation, the problem seems to be of higher level than
I originally thought.

The root cause is that zypper and poky use different way to represent
architectures, as we are putting them together, these two ways are
not compatible, causing many minor glitches that need to modify at
least one of them.

Poky has three kinds of representations in a single target image, which
are independent, cpu-dependent and machine-dependent (all, armv5te,
qemuarm, respectively), e.g.

update-rc.d-0.7-r3.all.rpm
curl-7.21.0-r0.armv5te.rpm
task-base-1.0-r69.qemuarm.rpm

(note that armv5te is the same with gcc's -march option, meaning little
endian)

This is natural until zypper is involved. Zypper supports only one arch
at one time (and this arch should not be changed in fly), and use the
idea of arch compatibility (e.g. _noarch is compatible with _i586), it
then hardcodes the available archs in a different way than poky does,
thus creating several problems:
1. what uses for independent packages is called "noarch", "all" is not
recognized, something depends on update-rc.d won't be installed
because of missing dependency
2. the arch automatic detection system uses "uname -m", thus producing
armv5tejl, which can only be resolved as armv5tel, conflicting with
"armv5te" in rpm
3. many archs are missing in zypper, like mips, armeb, etc.
4. there is no concept of machine-dependent packages (task-base) in
zypper, although we can work around.

Currently, at least zypper is broken on all of mips, arm, ppc, with
slightly different problems.

The ideal situation is to use consistent arch specification, the
following can be a solution:
1. rename *.all.rpm to *.noarch.rpm
2. removing the concept of machine-dependent packages, change all
*.qemuarm.rpm to *.armv5te.rpm
3. enhance zypper arch module, make the addition more flexible,
allowing arch alias (e.g. armv5te = armv5tel = armel = arm)

That would be some work to do, maybe 1.0 is a good time to get zypper
and package upgrade truely working.

Any ideas and comments?

Thanks,
Qing

I have added the COMMERCIAL_LICENSE bits to my local.conf and mediatomb
built after that.

building poky-image-rygel-live, gupnp-dlna do_configure is failing with:

configure: error: Package requirements (gstreamer-0.10 >=
0.10.29.2) were not met:

No package 'gstreamer-0.10' found

Have you seen that?

No, but I can see how it happened. Gstreamer isn't listed in
gupnp-dlna's DEPENDS and it's likely that gstreamer wasn't built before
gupnp-dlna configure was run - I have updated the gupnp-dlna recipe in
the meta-demo master branch.


Sorry about that!

(note that armv5te is the same with gcc's -march option, meaning little

This is a good analysis and summary. It actually gets more complicated
as for some machines we have a long list of compatible package types
that can be installed, e.g. for qemuarm, if you list PACKAGE_ARCHES
you'll see armv4t armv5 armv5t armv5te which are all accepted by the
opkg backend.

This is natural until zypper is involved. Zypper supports only one arch

This would only solve part of the problem though?

2. removing the concept of machine-dependent packages, change all
*.qemuarm.rpm to *.armv5te.rpm

This could mean making a copy of each rpm per machine so I'm not keen on
this.

3. enhance zypper arch module, make the addition more flexible,
allowing arch alias (e.g. armv5te = armv5tel = armel = arm)

That would be some work to do, maybe 1.0 is a good time to get zypper
and package upgrade truely working.

Any ideas and comments?

I think we're going to have to teach zypper to read a list of compatible
"architectures" from a configuration file. There is a config file opkg
writes to the filesystem continaing this list and we'll have to do
similar for RPM.

It does raise the question of how given two possible rpm's it would
chose between the two (for opkg, the list is in order).

Is the problem just in zypper and is rpm free from any issues in this
area?

Richard
