In Topic: Compiling linux kernel dvb-usb driver

You need:
[LIST][*]to skim over the Yocto manual and the Bitbake manual to have any idea of what you are doing[/*]
[*]a linux machine (or VM), running gcc 6.x (Unbuntu, Fedora 25, CentOS with devtools6)[/*]
[*]to install all dependencies Yocto needs (see the manual, chapter 3)[/*]
[*]to clone the OpenPLi repository (https://github.com/O...openpli-oe-core, and checkout the desired branch)[/*]
[*]cd to the directory you cloned the repository in[/*]
[*]enter "MACHINE=<yourbox> make image" to build your image[/*]
[/LIST]Once that is done and you have a working build environment, you can start fiddling with recipes.

Note that you quite a bit of diskspace for a complete build, a single build for 3 environments (1 x MIPSEL, 2 x ARM) we support needs about 200-250GB. And you need time, a first build run on my build server (a Core i7 920) takes about 4 hours.

I personally prefer CentOS, as it runs gcc 4.x native (which is needed to build OpenPLi 4), gcc 6.x with devtools-6 (needed for OpenPLi 6.x), and gcc 7.x with devtools-7 (needed for develop and OpenPLi 7.x), and you can switch very easily between the environments.

Thank you very much Master!

bitbake is not to use on your STB.
bitbake is used for compilation on your local PC when you decide to build your own image locally.

Would be better to create your own thread explaining for which hardware you are looking for driver.
There are already many pre-build drivers that can be installed in OpenPLi 6.

I want installing Mt7610u driver and inklude module on my kernel 3.13.5
