Feb 10 08:14:57 <yang2> Hi, is there anyone around who uses Collie ?
Feb 10 13:24:07 <tatane> hello
Feb 10 13:27:37 <tatane> i am currently working on a driver writen in C for the begleboard which is running with your distribution generated online. could you give me a link or the version of the kernel you are unsing ?
Feb 10 13:28:34 <DJWillis> tatane: uname -a and I can point you at the sources/patches
Feb 10 13:29:43 <DJWillis> tatane: that said, all the Beagle kernels are based off the Linux-OMAP GIT tree (trunk or a version tag). There are however extra patches in GIT that you may wish to use.
Feb 10 13:29:58 <tatane> I downloaded the version with the git method
Feb 10 13:30:21 <tatane> and i visibly have patch issues which one do i need ?
Feb 10 13:30:51 <tatane> for the kernel version generated on you website
Feb 10 13:31:44 <DJWillis> tatane: uname -a ;-) - Not sure what version Koen uses, I assume by 'you website' you mean http://amethyst.openembedded.net/~koen/narcissus/?
Feb 10 13:32:40 <tatane> yes and for the uname -a I got Linux beagleboard 2.6.28-omap1 #1 Mon Feb 2 21:11:52 CET 2009 armv7l unknown on the beagle board
Feb 10 13:33:42 <tatane> So when i load my module i get root@beagleboard:~# insmod exemple.ko
Feb 10 13:33:42 <tatane> exemple: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module
Feb 10 13:33:42 <tatane> insmod: error inserting 'exemple.ko': -1 Invalid module format
Feb 10 13:34:54 <tatane> DJWillis: i got the 2.6.28 from the git server do i need more patchs ?
Feb 10 13:36:03 <DJWillis> tatane: http://cgit.openembedded.net/cgit.cgi?url=openembedded/tree/packages/linux/linux-omap_2.6.28.bb is a list of the patches used for that kernel, the patches are http://cgit.openembedded.net/cgit.cgi?url=openembedded/tree/packages/linux/linux-omap
Feb 10 13:36:30 <DJWillis> tatane: or you could just rebuild the kernel using OpenEmbedded ;-)
Feb 10 13:39:04 <tatane> DJWillis: we are students so we have limited time for this project and we wanted to keep the devellopement environement as simple as possible. So we tried to avoid using openembeded and c++ code. Do you think just appling the patches to make the versions match is possible ?
Feb 10 13:40:18 <DJWillis> tatane: sure is
Feb 10 13:42:49 <tatane> DJWillis: so i get the sources indicated whith the git command and i simply extract the patches in the same falder or do i need an other methode to do it ?
Feb 10 13:43:30 <DJWillis> tatane: you could just get the entire openembedded GIT repro for speed
Feb 10 13:43:57 <tatane> DJWillis: how do i do that ?
Feb 10 13:45:05 <DJWillis> tatane: git clone git://git.openembedded.net/openembedded
Feb 10 13:45:06 <DJWillis>  somedir 
Feb 10 13:45:23 <tatane> DJWillis: thank you for your help
Feb 10 13:45:30 <DJWillis> tatane: then just pull out what you need from packages/linux/etc. etc
Feb 10 21:27:29 <mimecar> hi
