Repetier-Server Intel Atom build?

fraguada · January 2015

I've begun playing with an Intel Edison which currently runs a dual core Intel Atom processor. I'd love to be able to use this for as a machine server. Any thoughts on an Intel Atom Build? Currently I am running Yocto Linux, but I see that it can also run Ubilinux. Support for Intel Galileo would be nice as well.

Thanks!

At a first glance it should be possible. But since I do not have a edison or Yocto installation, can you tell me

- what is the base of Yocta? Debian, RPM or something else?

- Is it 32 or 64 bit?

- What glibc version does it use?

If it is debian and 64 bit, the normal 64 bit linux binary may work if glibc is new enough. I might also provide a 32 bit intel version.

Cool!
-Ubilinux is based on Debian wheezy, but Yocto Linux is a sort of Linux Distro creator that is custom for each piece of hardware. Seems it is compatible with Ubunto, Debian, etc: http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.7.1/mega-manual/mega-manual.html#the-linux-distro
-I believe it is a 64bit processor, but I think they are using a 32bit Yocto setup (there are threads on the community regarding the 64 bit Linux Kernel which might not yet be tested on the Edison)
-Not sure about glibc. Is this something I can check on the existing OS?

The documentation for the Edison is still lacking. There is even another 32bit Quark processor on this thing which is at the moment not accessible (but is meant to run a RTOS).

You can see glibc version with ldd

ldd --version

ldd (Debian EGLIBC 2.13-38+deb7u6) 2.13

Here 2.13 but the available amd debian has 2.19 as version. So if you have 64 bit with 2.19 or newer it should already run. I will see if I have a wokring 32 bit linux somewhere for next update.

I'm running a dedicated intel atom 32 bit netbook using linux mint. I'd also love to see a 32-bit deb package for repetier-server. Thanks!

Finally got round to checking the glibc version on the Edison:

ldd (EGLIBC) 2.19

I will try my hand at installing now...

fraguada · January 2015

Seems the architecture is incorrect:

opkg install /home/root/Repetier-Server-0.51.0-Linux.deb
Unknown package 'repetier-server'.
Collected errors:
* pkg_hash_fetch_best_installation_candidate: Packages for repetier-server found, but incompatible with the architectures configured
* opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package repetier-server.

/proc/cpuinfo gives me this:

p.s. I started with the amd64 version, and that did not work. Of course, the others also fail.

Repetier · January 2015

Ok, now also a 32 bit debian version is available. It was actually compiled on a linux mint system :-) Hope it runs for you.

fraguada · January 2015

Hmm, I get the same error with the intel version.

opkg install /home/root/Repetier-Server-0.51.0-Linux.deb

fraguada · January 2015

I think tonight I might try ubilinux to see if I have any luck with that...

Repetier · January 2015

On debian like systems with .deb package system the command should be

dpkg -i /home/root/Repetier-Server-0.51.0-Linux.deb

Never heard opkg so it may be a completely different packaging system.

fraguada · March 2015

Hello! Well, after some time, I was able to finally load ubilinux on here and attempt to install repetier-server. The issue is that this version of ubilinux has eglibc 2.13:

root@ubilinux:~# ldd --version
ldd (Debian EGLIBC 2.13-38+deb7u8) 2.13
Copyright (C) 2011 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

So when I try to install the Intel Atom 32 build, I get this:

root@ubilinux:~# dpkg -i /root/Repetier-Server-0.51.1-Linux.deb
Selecting previously unselected package repetier-server.

So I guess I can somehow upgrade eglibc or attempt to compile repetier-server for 2.13?

fraguada · March 2015

p.s. I was able to upgrade libc6-i686 and now my eglibc is 2.21. I was able to install Repetier-Server 0.51 on an Intel Edison! Thanks!

joulethief · November 2015

Hi, I'm trying to install on an Intel Galileo Gen2, similar setup to the Edison above running Ubilinux with EGLIBC 2.13. I tried updating GILBC following these instructions, and the installs appear to work with no errors however when I type ldd --version, it still shows 2.13? Any advice on how to upgrade by EGLIBC version to 2.21 like the post above? The instructions I followed don't seem to do it. Here's what I currently get:

root@ubilinux:~# ldd --version

ldd (Debian EGLIBC 2.13-38+deb7u2) 2.13

Also, when I run dpkg for Repetier-Server I don't get a GLIBC error like the post above. Instead I get this, any recommendations on how to get Repetier-Server up and running on my Galileo?

root@ubilinux:~# dpkg -i Repetier-Server-0.65.0-Linux.deb

Your distribution has no sudo installed which is used by installer. That seems to be your main problem at the moment. So try installing sudo package and see how far you get.

joulethief · November 2015

Thanks, I installed sudo which took care of the first errors. But I'm still seeing the rsdIllegal instruction failed. Any further recommendations?
