General :: Configuring USB For BeagleBoard - Build The Kernel With USB Support ?

Mar 30, 2010

I have just started to work with BeagleBoard and built the Linux kernel (version 2.6.30.5) and download to the board and it start. I have also connected to the board over serial to Putty terminal.

Now I want to connect to the Beagle Board using USB instead of serial and I am looking for some info on how to do this.

My goal would be to connect to board over USB and then be able to:
* Download my own binary files/programs from PC over USB to BeagleBoard
* Communicate over USB instead of UART/Putty to get log and execute commands

Question:
How do I build the Linux kernel with USB support, meaning what settings should be ticked in menuconfig? Or is it already included?

How do I enable USB OTG in menu config?

I assume I would need some driver on my PC with Windows XP to connect to my BeagleBoard over USB. Were can I find this USB driver?

Slackware :: Can't Build VirtualBox Kernel Module In 13.1

Apr 26, 2011

I am using the 13.1 build scripts from slackbuilds.org. I modified the scripts to build 3.2.12 rather than 3.2.10.

In 13.1 the main VirtualBox 3.2.12 OSE package built and installed without errors. The VirtualBox GUI starts without errors.

Running the virtualbox-kernel-mksrctarball.sh script built a kernel source package without errors.

Yet the VirtualBox kernel module won't build. I receive the following error:

Code:
]*** Building 'vboxdrv' module ***

Software :: Add Include Path To Kernel Module Makefile?

Sep 16, 2009

I have probably a stupid question. How do I add an include path for kernel module makefile? I want to include "test_kernel.h" in test_module.c
test_kernel.h resides in a different directory with relative path "../../common/" . I can include the file specifying the relative path, which works OK:

#include "../../common/test_kernel.h"

I would like include it without the relative path and specify path in Makefile similar to -I option available in application makefiles. I have tried EXTRA_CFLAGS += -I../../common/ in the makefile but no use.

Debian Hardware :: NVidia Kernel Module Won't Build?

Apr 24, 2011

I can't get the nVidia kernel module built. Each time DKMS runs to install it (I'm trying to install it with the nvidia-kernel-legacy-173xx-dkms package on ), the build fails with a different error. Here is an exemple /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/173.14.27/build/make.log (I have a geForce FX 5200 on the computer I'm trying to install the nVidia driver):

Programming :: Build Module Against Headers That Are Not From Running Kernel?

Apr 13, 2011

I'm trying to debug a module I programmed but I don't want to do it on the running host but against UML (don't want to reboot every 5 minutes).

The UML kernel I downloaded is 2.6.38.2. I have already downloaded the ubuntu kernel headers for this version (they belong to natty though I'm running maverick.... when I installed the .deb file with dpkg I had no problem at all).

Now I'd like to build said module against these headers. How can I do it?

Here's the makefile for my module code...

Slackware :: VirtualBox < 3.1.4 Module Build Fails On 2.6.33 Kernel

Mar 4, 2010

I had an issue with the module build for vbox 3.1.2 breaking on the latest kernel ( /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxdrv setup ). Apparently the issue is that a kernel header (autoconf.h ) has changed its location in the module tree and hence the issue.

2 options:

1. upgrade to 3.1.4

2. create a symlink as follows

cd /usr/src/linux/include/linux
ln -s ../generated/autoconf.h autoconf.h

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Unable To Build The NVIDIA Kernel Module?

Feb 26, 2011

before i get a lot of annoyed responses, I did check the forum and found a couple older previous threads on this topic, but they don't seem to really explain any real solutions to the problem im having.Here's the story- I was looking around for instructions and found this "howto guide" on installing nvidia display driver [URL]I went through the steps he listed:

downloaded the driver packages, install the dependencies from the shell, and then i pressed CTRL+ALT+F2 to get out of X and into text mode. I stopped my gdm with the command: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stopand then i tried to install the driver using: sudo sh (on my NVIDIA driver- his version was a bit outdated compared to the one I downloaded)But here is where the problem starts, as I go through the installation process and click yes, i reach the "progress bar" then the screen says "unable to build the NVIDIA kernel module". and then it just exits. What is going on here? Am I missing some other package or file?

General :: Can Specify The Path To Libpcap When Configuring/making/installing

Dec 9, 2010

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04.1 and am trying to get packet capturing working for my Bluetooth dongle using hcidump.From what I've read, libpcap must be compiled to enable Bluetooth sniffing and given that hcidump isn't finding a single packet, I'm guessing the version Ubuntu has installed for me isn't compiled with bluetooth support.So I downloaded a newer version of libpcap and installed the bluez header files. Configured libpcap and it gave a "Yes" for bluetooth support. It is now installed and sitting in /usr/local/lib/. Now I'm trying to compile hcidump to use this lib rather than the system default but I can't figure out how...I've read that GCC can be passed the -lpcap flag to set the path but I haven't figured out how to do this.

Hardware :: Installing Madwifi Kernel 2.6.35.8?

Dec 28, 2010

I know this has been asked in a previous post:[URL]...BUT, i am not using the package assistance module that was used in this case. Im running Backtrack 4 R2, with a PCMCIA Netgear WPN511 card on a 16gig USB flash drive (dell inspiron 2200, 256MB pc333 RAM, 70 gig HD - i know this sounds minimal but it is running great, and will stay minimalist). The current kernel version is 2.6.35.8.

I am having problems with any version of madwifi i download/guide i follow. And, because madwifi.org is down (as usual), im having a hard time finding current sources. I am aware that there is the atheros 9000 driver, but am clueless as to install that as well, and from what i've read, madwifi suits my needs better. Once again, i am new, so if this is also incorrect, i'd love to know why! Im rather unfamiliar with how kernels/headers interact with drivers, so feel free to low-ball replies.

Ubuntu :: ERROR: Unable To Load The Kernel Module Nvidia.ko

May 16, 2010

for the last few releases, starting with 9.04 i've been having serious crashing problems with the nvidia driver. whether i installed it manually using the latest drivers directly from nvidia, or installing them through the restricted driver option. after a few hours CRASH. it's been awful. and i tried everything from this side to the moon to fix this issue, all to no avail. no idea why i've even stayed with ubuntu after all these issues. came from the debian world back in 5.04, and almost moved back a few times. but i did a clean install of 10.04, and thought i'd give the nvidia driver one last chance... if it didn't work i'd be moving back home to debian (with the suspicion the issue would stay).

so after i tried the restricted driver and CRASH. nothing to fix it. then i thought ok i'll try to use the latest driver from nvidia. but ran into this error when installing it:

Quote: ERROR: Unable to load the kernel module nvidia.ko. This happens most frequently when this kernel module was built against the wrong or improperly configured kernel sources, with a version of gcc that differs from the one used to build the target kernel, or if a driver such as rivafb/nvidiafb is present and prevents the NVIDIA kernel module from obtaining ownership of the NVIDIA graphics device(s), or NVIDIA GPU installed in this system is not supported by this NVIDIA Linux graphics driver release. so after googling around i found a fix to this error i was getting during the install:

Quote: sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

blacklist vga16fb
blacklist nouveau
blacklist rivafb
blacklist nvidiafb
blacklist rivatv

Ubuntu / Apple :: Error - Failed To Initialize The NVIDIA Kernel Module

May 1, 2010

I keep getting a warning messaged almost every time I reboot about Ubuntu running in low-graphics mode on a Macbook 5,1. This has been happening since Lucid Beta 1.

Quote:

Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module. Please see the
system's kernel log for additional error messages and
consult the NVIDIA README for details.

[code]....

After I finish loading in low graphics mode I have to run "sudo nvidia-xconfig". Then, the next reboot the graphics card driver is loaded properly. Is anyone else experiencing this problem or have an idea how to correct it? I know it is a long shot, but do you think doing a fresh install of the stable release would work?
