Did you make any progress regarding the drivers ?

[dax]

I made a very little step about the drivers meanwhile i'm waiting for receive by mail the device.

At first: devshell isn't enough to build the drivers because doesn't provide the kernel sources. Is mandatory to build the image in order to have the required sources (or maybe run bitbake with an option that i don't known).

When i run make menuconfig i get an error

Created default (all yes) .config file
/home/davide/openpli_4.0/openpli-oe-core/build/tmp/sysroots/vusolo2/usr/src/kernel//scripts/kconfig/mconf ./Kconfig
./Kconfig:491: syntax error
./Kconfig:490: unknown option "Say"
./Kconfig:491: unknown option "To"
./Kconfig:492: unknown option "called"
./Kconfig:495: syntax error
./Kconfig:494:warning: multi-line strings not supported
./Kconfig:494: unknown option "If"
./Kconfig:762: syntax error
./Kconfig:761: unknown option "Say"

./Kconfig:763: unknown option "The"
./Kconfig:766: syntax error
./Kconfig:765:warning: multi-line strings not supported
./Kconfig:765: unknown option "If"

So i'm stuck...

If i run make - j 4 (without run before menuconfig)

but is't a good way.

So i'm stuck...

P.S. it's not important, but with the opendreambox 2.0 environment i'm able to run make menuconfig

Now latest astrometa development are merged into linux media master.

And this means?

[athoik]

Hello,

In order to follow the guide for media_build from here http://forums.openpl...73/#entry455694, you need first to build your image!

That means the first step is the following:

cd /opt
git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/openpli/openpli-oe-core openpli4
cd /opt/openpli4
make
#### setup your sources dir here... eg /opt/sources
MACHINE=dm800se make image

Then you can follow the guide.

[amm8990]

One thing more. Drivers are experimental, so anyone want to compile them  need to enable staging by running:

make menuconfig

Or editing config when you clone the repository.

Sorry, I just saw that you mentioned that in the post.

Hi, if is related to my question, as i said in my previous post

 

At first: devshell isn't enough to build the drivers because doesn't provide the kernel sources. Is mandatory to build the image in order to have the required sources (or maybe run bitbake with an option that i don't known).

P.S. it's not important, but with the opendreambox 2.0 environment i'm able to run make menuconfig

i built an image but i got an error when i run make menuconfig.

Could you reproduce the error?

Or maybe could be a problem with vu+ environment? I have to build a dm image? If yes, what is missing in a vu+ environment?

Thanks

 

[amm8990]

What kind of error did you get?

[dax]

What kind of error did you get?

Please see post #22

[amm8990]

Oh, sorry. What os are you using? Ubuntu 14.04lts? 

[dax]

Oh, sorry. What os are you using? Ubuntu 14.04lts? 

No, archlinux.

[amm8990]

As I found on the web it is os related. Same problem on Ubuntu also, but on fedora works fine. Don't know why it stuch reading Kconfig file?!

[dax]

As I found on the web it is os related. Same problem on Ubuntu also, but on fedora works fine. Don't know why it stuch reading Kconfig file?!

Sure? Why the kconfig run without problem on same os (mine, archlinux) with the opendreambox environment?

[amm8990]

What kernel version?

[dax]

I got the device mn88472, on my pc (archlinux 3.17.4) works fine dvb-t and dab. I can check dvb-t2 signal

What kernel version?

Pc archlinux 3.17.4

Opendreambox (that run make menuconfig) 3.2

Openpli 3.3.8 with the problem posted above when i run make menuconfig

Openvix same problem as openpli but kernel 3.13.5

So in my opinion isn't a problem related to os.

[amm8990]

Maybe to try

 

make stagingconfig
make
make install

[dax]

Ok, stagingconfig run and set all parameters to yes. My question is: why with openpli environment we can't run make menuconfig? What is missed?

[gjstroom]

The problem, is that the kernel version on http://git.linuxtv.org/ is version 3.18 which has no broadcom/mips extensions.

I also tried to take some of the files to the 3.13.5 kernel (VU+), but so far no success.

You can build a kernel like this (OpenPli uses slightly other directories)

make -j 4 ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=/data2/oe-alliance.23/builds/openatv/vusolo2/tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/mipsel-oe-linux/mipsel-oe-linux- menuconfig

[gjstroom]

I did some more work, but still no working drivers.

 

I build the drivers with the following, also have a look at: http://blog.palosaar...393781628365454

 

cd /data2
mkdir -p openpli4_kernel/dm800se
cd openpli4_kernel/dm800se
wget https://www.kernel.o...inux-3.2.tar.gz
wget https://www.kernel.o...patch-3.2.60.gz
wget http://sources.dream...6f5523c6e.patch
untar the kernel and apply the patches

 

cd /data2
git clone --depth=1 git://linuxtv.org/media_build.git
cd media_build

Somehow all modules get a vermagic=3.2.60-dm800se SMP mod_unload MIPS32_R1 32BIT, I created a little patcher to set it to 3.2-dm800se SMP mod_unload MIPS32_R1 32BIT

#!/bin/sh

for m in $(find /tmp/v4l -name "*.ko")
        do
        grep -q "3.2.60" $m && {
                echo "patching vermagic ${m}"
                sed -i 's/3.2.60-dm800se SMP mod_unload MIPS32_R1 32BIT /3.2-dm800se SMP mod_unload MIPS32_R1 32BIT \x00\x00\x00/g' $m || exit 1

        }
        done
        exit 0
}

But I can't use drivers. I can't load dvb-usb-rtl28xxu.ko / rtl2832.ko / dvb_usb_v2.ko / dvb-core.ko / mn88472.ko / mn88473.ko

The dvb_core should be compiled as module on kernel, so it can replaced by v4l version.

Also there is a patch that removes the sublevel from kernel. You should apply this one also.
