Today i made a kernel configuration that suits my acer pda i mentioned a week before, and then i tried to build it in the ARMedslack i installed under qemu. I used the 2.6.30.5 kernel source .tgz you supplied with the ARMedslack 12.2 distribution. The compilation was stopped with error. The problematic file was vgacon.c. Since the vga text console is necessary for me, i could not take it out from the kernel options. How did you succeed to compile this kernel? What do you think i should do with that? This was the gcc error message: In file included from drivers/video/console/vgacon.c:51: include/video/vga.h: In function 'vga_io_r': include/video/vga.h:226: warning: comparison is always true due to

This was the gcc error message: Neither QEMU nor the Kirkwood platforms provide VGA, so the kernels don't have support for it. Does the PDA really have VGA? The default config for the N30 has not got VGA set -- it does have Framebuffer set though -- most ARM devices use framebuffer: try using that instead. prisere [arm] # pwd /usr/src/linux-2.6.32-rc8/arch/arm prisere [arm] # egrep "VGA|N30" ./configs/s3c2410_defconfig CONFIG_MACH_N30=y # CONFIG_VGASTATE is not set # CONFIG_FB_SVGALIB is not set # CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE is not set prisere [arm] # From kendlt at hdsnet.hu Fri Dec 4 23:32:30 2009 From: kendlt at hdsnet.hu (Tibor Kendl) Date: Sat, 05 Dec 2009 00:32:30 +0100 Subject: [ARMedslack] Mounting root filesystem Message-ID: <4B199C0E.50700@hdsnet.hu> Hi Stuart, Everyone! I succeeded to compile the kernel with switching off the vga console as you advised. I copied the root filesystem from the qemu image with the installed ARMedslack onto an SD card. With fdisk i created three partitions on it. One dos type with the kernel and the bootloader (haret-0.3.8), one linux swap, and an ext2 with the root filesystem. I inserted the card into the pda and started the bootloader. After the penguin logo appeared and the kernel massages started coming up on the pda console, the booting stopped with an error: VFS: Cannot open root device "mmcblk0p3" or unknown-block(0,0) On my laptop with x86 processor and Slackware 12.2, after i plug in an SD card it can be seen in /dev/mmcblk0, and the partitions on it are /dev/mmcblk0p1, /dev/mmcblk0p2, etc. Do you think this kind of naming convention is also valid under the ARM environment. What do you think could be the device name of an sd card inserted into a pda, and the device names of the partitions on it?

It's most likely to be the same if you have just one of these devices. The first thing I would do is to check whether you have the support for the SD card compiled into the kernel. If you have compiled the driver into the kernel, you ought to see some output from it -- at a minimum you ought to see this: [ 36.873037] mmc0: mvsdio driver initialized, lacking card detect (fall back to polling) This is what I see on my sheevaplug which does not have an SD card in the slot. Some of the information here may be helpful regarding the SD card: http://nil-techno.blogspot.com/2009/10/installing-slackware-on-sheevaplug.html I hope that helps. -- Stuart Winter Slackware ARM: www.armedslack.org From frank.guibert at gmail.com Tue Dec 22 10:10:35 2009 From: frank.guibert at gmail.com (Frank Guibert) Date: Tue, 22 Dec 2009 11:10:35 +0100 Subject: [ARMedslack] Java SE embedded from Sun Message-ID: Hi everybody, Sun released Java SE binaries for embedded devices : http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/embedded.jsp The following one works fine for me on armedslack-current on my sheeva-plug (it is a month old install I have not been following -current since then) : ARMv5 Linux - Headless (Early Access) * EABI, glibc 2.5, Soft Float, Little Endian Just untar the archive and add the bin folder to your PATH environment variable.

Patrick asked directly for approval to include the x86 binary blobs into Slackware, so I'll try and do the same for ARMedslack.

That is only an evaluation version, though, under the assumption that you are developing an embedded application with an ARM device.
