NodeJS on Linaro Ubuntu 12.04 Hangs

Hello,

I just received Udoo Quad and installed Linaro Ubuntu 12.04 using SD image following http://www.udoo.org/getting-started/creating-a-bootable-micro-sd-card-from-image/.

And I installed NodeJS from the source code (http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.10.23/node-v0.10.23.tar.gz) as follows.

Code:

$ wget -c http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.10.23/node-v0.10.23.tar.gz
$ tar xvf node-v0.10.23.tar.gz
$ cd node-v0.10.23
$ ./configure --without-snapshot  # as suggested by phuh in another thread
$ make
$ sudo make install

Once it's installed, I tried to run a simple helloWorld example that just does console.log('hello world');

Code:

$ node ./helloWorld.js

However, it just hangs there. Also, if I try to check npm's version by

Code:

npm --version

, it hangs as well.

Does anybody have the same problem and know how to resolve this issue?

I've read phuh's thread http://www.udoo.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=158. However, he has installed it on Linaro Ubuntu 11.10 so I wonder if there are some differences between 11.10 and 12.04 that cause the problem.

Thanks.

 

I have node and node-udoo running on 12.04 fine, so that is not the problem. Not sure if I built it on the UDOO or downloaded precompiled binaries. I have a QUAD with Linaro 12.04.

 

I'm having the same problem, using nodejs v0.10.25. Did you figure out an answer or did you find another way?
I installed mine from source like described above.

 

Hi, it is a problem based on the standard gcc 4.6 which is installed on the lubuntu v1.1 image by default.

Please check out my guide to get an up-to-date nodejs running on your systems:
