A10 boot files

[roberts]

I test on a Marsboard.

So please check the output of

showbootcodes

It should include desktop=flwm_topside
If not add it.

Also do not include older sces, as many changes have been made to merge and store downloaded debs and prebuilt .tar.gzs
Best to start fresh, while we are still actively developing, at least until we come to a formal release.

I will test again from a fresh sd card.
Note: I find marsboard is very picky about sdcards, on many I get I/O errors.

[roberts]

Just completed a "from zero" sdcard install for marsboard. Followed by importing the big four, Xprogs, flwm_topside, wbar, and xorg-fbdev.
Rebooted and worked as expected. Note that they are suprious boot time messages that can be ignored.

Hopefully, for your case, all you need to do is update uEnv.txt with desktop=flwm_topside.
Otherwise have patience with these microsd cards.

Dear Roberts

I did them from zero but flwm_topside and wbar did not work on new version (but work well on version 20130712).

The desktop=flwm_topside had added before at uEnv.txt and also at sceboot.lst

Here is my Marsboard information.

Thank you.

tc@box:~$ mount /mnt/mmcblk0p1

tc@box:~$ cat /mnt/mmcblk0p1/uEnv.txt
console=tty0
panic=10
loglevel=3
extraargs=disp.screen0_output_mode=EDID:1280x720p60 hdmi.audio=EDID:0 nozswap nortc
waitusb 5
desktop=flwm_topside

tc@box:~$ showbootcodes
console=tty0 init=/init rootwait panic=10 loglevel=3 disp.screen0_output_mode=EDID:1280x720p60 hdmi.audio=EDID:0 nozswap nortc

tc@box:~$ cat /mnt/mmcblk0p3/tce/sceboot.lst
nano
htop
dropbear
Xprogs
flwm_topside
wbar
xorg-fbdev
x11vnc

tc@box:~$ ls /mnt/mmcblk0p3/tce/sce
Xprogs.sce    flwm_topside.sce  lxde.sce  wbar.sce    xorg-fbdev.sce
dropbear.sce  htop.sce          nano.sce  x11vnc.sce

[roberts]

extraargs should be one line, e.g.:

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~$ cat /mnt/mmcblk0p1/uEnv.txt
console=tty0
panic=10
loglevel=3
extraargs=disp.screen0_output_mode=EDID:1280x720p60 hdmi.audio=EDID:0 nozswap nortc desktop=flwm_topside

See the README-X-Desktop.txt file

Then add desktop=flwm_topside to the end of the extraargs line.

If needed waitusb should be waitusb=5 also added to the end of the extraargs line.

BTW. I am posting this from my marsboard with the latest 130904 version with dwb browser.

Hi persian
To show commands and results from the screen please use code tags instead of colored fonts. It's the button with the #
symbol below the  Font Size  drop down.

Dear Roberts

Hi,

I did it.

But I can not find Control panel setting for IP configuration at new version.

Thank you

[roberts]

Do you mean control panel Network GUI is not showing?
I don't use static IP so I can only say that such GUI is showing here.
I just imported LXDE and it too is working fine and the Network GUI is displayed from Control Panel.

[persian]

In previous version we had a control panel for setting IP, Date & Time, Background logo and ... .

I want to install it in new version.

Thank you.

[roberts]

It is part of Xprogs and is working as expected on all arm platforms.

[persian]

I can not find control panel option in TCL (flwm_topside) new version desktop menu items !

Also I can not find control panel for defining static IP in LXDE .

Thankx

[Rich]

Hi persian
Do you have  Xprogs  installed? Does  ControlPanel  show up in Wbar?

[persian]

Dear Rich,

Hi,

The Xprogs and wbar installed and loaded at Sceboot.lst as I said in my previous post at current page  (Reply #47) .

Thank you

[roberts]

Sorry. Cannot reproduce.

LXDE menu System Tools first item displayed is Control Panel. Displays correctly.
Using flwm_topside System Tools menu first item is Control Panel works as expected.
From wbar, control panel is displayed and starts as expected.

You might consider removing your sdcard and fscking it on another machine.

[roberts]

You might also open an xterm and type
cpanel

See if any I/O errors from sdcard.
I have experienced such.

Dear Roberts,

The Cpanel problem solved with the new Xprogs update.

Thank you
