Just after a few problems (i didn't have the DC connector plug and the uart serial to usb module is homemade...) i rebuild the kernel with some tweak then i boot up the board, just a "little" issues, HDMI output isn't working! Seem there are some missing driver or conf in the hardkernel official github kernel repository. If i use the official image everything is ok, but with a custom kernel no... Ok, no problem we can test it via UART port...
Two hours and PCoIP is working on ODROID-X... 2 months of test on RaspberryPi and still no PCoIP...maybe there are some key to buy to unlock something already in the SoC?!? That's funny...seriously...
Edit: HDMI output now works! Now i can play mahjong titans from odroid-xon my virtual machine via PCoIP :)
Now let's try again on RaspberryPi...
Just a question:
ReplyDeleteI tried to compile the kernel
export ARCH=arm
export CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/local/toolchain/arm-2010q1/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-
artificats!!!!!!!!!!
make odroidx_defconfig
time make -j10 zImage
The zImage (arch/arm/boot/zImage) was 2.9MB the zImage from the prebuilt was 4.2MB
When I did "fastboot flash kernel ./zImage" (to the eMMC) it worked with the pre-built kernel and not with the kernel I built myself.
Do you have any idea what I did wrong?
(I tried both bruanch: odroidx-next, odroidx-working fronm the same git you used)
Thanks
Daniel
please ignore the line "artificats!!!!!!!!!!"
DeleteDid you use the lastest (with Kernel 3.6RC4) release?
DeleteBecause something (in better) is changed. In the lastest release i use to do:
git clone https://github.com/hardkernel/linux.git
cd linux
make ARCH=arm odroidx_defconfig
#add/remove/tweak kernel if you need:
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi- menuconfig
#now build the kernel, i use the same crosscompiler i use for Raspberry and other board...
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi- -k -j 3
#build modules in a temporary folder:
make ARCH=arm modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/root/mod_compiled
then... in the new release you have just to copy the zImage in the "/dev/mmcblk0p2" vfat partition and the compiled modules in the ext4 "/dev/mmcblk0p3" partition.
In the old release you have to dd zImage in this way:
dd iflag=dsync oflag=dsync if=./arch/arm/boot/zImage of=/dev/sdb seek=1057
I use only sdcards not emmc
Thanks for your help
DeleteMy kernel version is <> 3.6
The kernel that is on the pre-built e-mmc file that I have downloaded the version is:
"3.0.41 (codewalker@codewalker-desktop) (gcc version 4.4.1 (Sourcery G++ Lite 2010q1-188) ) #3 SMP PREEMPT Fri Aug 24 19:22:25 KST 2012"
This is from SD-card we bought with the system burned in:
Linux version 3.0.15 (ckkim@ckkim-desktop) (gcc version 4.4.1 (Sourcery G++ Lite 2010q1-188) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jul 31 14:38:28 KST 2012
In my version
"/dev/mmcblk0p2" is ext4 that contain the system partition (usual on Android). probably if I will dd it will probably require me to re-image the card.
Did the kernel that you compile initially from GIT has version 3.6.x?
yes, the kernel version in git repo is the 3.6RCx. You can compile it without problem, just the hdmi_v14 driver to modify if you have an 1080P monitor.
DeleteThe kernel you are using is an old version (alpha i think) without some odroid driver/tweak.
Is better if you download the new release of ubuntu distro (http://odroid.foros-phpbb.com/t1171-linux-kernel-36-rc4-runs-ubuntu-1204-on-odroid-x)
What did you use to serve the VMWare Client? vCenter? VMWare Server?
ReplyDeleteyes vmware client

sorry, tried twice to get this running on a Pi B and it kernel panics all the time - Scott
