| [09:35] <shunobies> Hello all I have a quick question probably like most. Does anyone know how to get Quick Synergy to work? | |
| [09:36] <shunobies> I have attempted to set it up several times now and have not luck | |
| [09:44] <shunobies> Hello all | |
| [11:00] <vanexx> Can anyone suggest me a goos ARM board with usb host? cheap pls.. :) | |
| [11:01] <lool> vanexx: beagleboard is probably the nicest you can get for now | |
| [11:02] <lool> it's v7 and has advanced modern hardware | |
| [11:03] <vanexx> yeah but is there any seller here in europe? | |
| [11:03] <vanexx> i know it is 149 $ | |
| [11:03] <vanexx> but shpping cost is 80 | |
| [11:04] <vanexx> hmm hey what about this.. http://plugcomputer.org/ it is cool | |
| [11:05] <lool> You can group orders; don't think there's a reseller in Europe | |
| [11:05] <lool> vanexx: The sheevaplug is cute and nice and cheap, but keep in mind it's ARMv5 and has no VFP | |
| [11:05] <lool> You can run Jaunty or Debian on it, but soon you wont be able to run karmic | |
| [12:42] <vanexx> I am crosscompiling UVCVIDEO to an arm board with linux 2.6.14, uvcvideo needs to be compiled with version > 2.6.14. | |
| [12:42] <vanexx> So its ok, I crosscompile it with 2.6.28 in my PC with no problems, the problem is: when I try to insmod the compiled uvcvideo.ko into the ARM kernel i got errors of the type | |
| [12:42] <vanexx> "undefined symbol X", thats normal because those symbols (symbols from v4l2 etc) are not in 2.6.14 os version, so is there way for compiling | |
| [12:42] <vanexx> uvcvideo specifyng that all refrences must be static instead of dynamic? | |
| [12:45] <gaspa> vanexx: you need to compile the module with the kernel you really use. | |
| [12:46] <gaspa> if uvcvideo needs a kernel > 2.6.14, then it needs that version to run too. | |
| [12:47] <vanexx> but.. i cant change the os in the ARM board | |
| [12:47] <vanexx> it is 2.6.14 and cannont be changed.. | |
| [12:48] <vanexx> I do believe it is possible without compiling with the version I really use.. it is only a matter of compiling statically | |
| [12:48] <gaspa> no, it's not. | |
| [12:48] <vanexx> I mean gaspa, the only diff between 2.6.14 and 2.6.15 for example are new functions and symbols | |
| [12:48] <gaspa> why can't the kernel be changed? it's on a ROM? | |
| [12:48] <gaspa> "only" ? | |
| [12:49] <gaspa> :P | |
| [12:49] <vanexx> so if u export those symbols to ur static compilantion... | |
| [12:49] <vanexx> well no really only but, yes for that matter | |
| [12:49] <ogra> you will at least need the headers for that kernel | |
| [12:49] <vanexx> gaspa no its on a flasy and yes it can be changed but i have no support from the vendor to do it | |
| [12:49] <ogra> (the *configured* headers, which means you need the source) | |
| [12:50] <vanexx> ogra yes... thats true | |
| [12:50] <gaspa> ogra: "(01:42:26 PM) vanexx: I am crosscompiling UVCVIDEO to an arm board with linux 2.6.14, uvcvideo needs to be compiled with version > 2.6.14." | |
| [12:50] <ogra> yep, i saw that | |
| [12:50] <vanexx> thats what i want: use the kernel headers but when compiling the resulting module must have all their references static | |
| [12:50] <ogra> backport it then :) | |
| [12:51] <ogra> or forwardport the missing functions | |
| [12:51] <gaspa> i think backporting is what you need to do. | |
| [12:52] <vanexx> how can I do it? | |
| [12:52] <ogra> with a lot of coding :) | |
| [12:52] <gaspa> change the code of uvcvideo to match the interface of 2.6.14... | |
| [12:52] <ogra> and there is no guarantee it will work | |
| [12:53] <ogra> (which you will only find out in the end) | |
| === ogra_ is now known as ogra | |
| [13:46] <vanexx> and what if I dont change the OS in the ARM but in /lib i put libraries from the 2.6.28 for ex? | |
| [13:47] <vanexx> using busyboc for ex | |
| [13:47] <vanexx> busybox | |
| [14:14] <gaspa> vanexx: no, userspace library doesn't matter at all. uvcvideo is a kernel module, and so, must be compiled against the "same" kernel that will run it. | |
| [16:52] * bizkut i am back | |
