Hi Andrew, ... Sorry, didn't mean to sound harsh, the problem of too many emails and too little time. And like you I'm mostly a s/w guy, so if a real...
Hi all, When I've been able to snatch some free time, I've been working on some code to provide simple scripted reading and control of the 9 data pins on the...
Actually, I'm working on adding enough to the eCos port to be able to write/debug applications. Most of the interrupt functions (in ts7200_misc.c) were empty,...
Just an update on this. There is a discussion on the linux cirrus mailing list about this as well at http://www.freelists.org/archives/linux-cirrus/11-2004/ ...
There's one in the kernel source tree itself in arch/arm/def-configs/ts7200. You can enable it with: make ts7200_config make oldconfig Then edit it with: make...
It looks like the following patch to the kernel fixes (for the most part) the horrible time drift. Apply this patch to include/asm-arm/arch-ep93xx/time.h and...
... Any prospect of this happening in the near future? USB disks seem to work fine but as USB is only full speed, transfer rates aren't great - I get 0.8mb/s...
Hi All, I am trying to compile a linux kernel (2.4.23 - kernel.org) for TS7200, but I cant find the apropriate patch for ARM in ARMEmbedded web site. As I...
You will probably not find any patches for the TS-7200 against generic Linux or even generic Linux-ARM. These projects are not yet aware of the still...
Hi all, I am trying to add a device driver to the TS-7200 board and I am having allot of trouble. I have never worked with drivers so I do not know what I am...
I have writen a driver but I do not understand how to get it to work on the board. Do I just put my driver in a directory, like /dev or /bin or /proc or what? ...
I'm puzzled as how you managed to write a device driver without understanding how it integrates with Linux? Could you explain in more detail how your driver...
I wrote the driver following an example in a book. I did use insmod to load the driver, but when I type cat /proc/lcd nothing is displayed. I expected to see...
First, check that the entry /proc/lcd exists (ls -l /proc). If it does it means your driver is loaded ok, so that's a good start. Assuming it's loaded, when...
I'm off for a nice long lunch, and some wine, in the sun on this glorious summer day!. If you'd like to post your code I may look at it tomorrow if you like...
Thank you Andrew, That is what I expected, but I do not see it working that way I am going over my code again to see if I missed somthing or if I did anything...
... From what we've learned so far, we can guess that this driver will likely interface to one or more entries in /dev. These are the file system nodes (e.g....
The lcd driver idea does not seem to be working so I thought I would try to take the functions that I have created and make them into a lcd_lib.a file that I...
Hi All, I've enjoyed reading many of the posts here. Thx to Jesse for all the help. I'm trying to get the Maverick Crunch instructions working on the EP9302. I...
You probably want to make sure you (and crosstool) compiles with the -maverick-fix-invalid-insns GCC option. The default in GCC is to not. //Jesse Off...
I also highly suggest you get the book, Building Embedded linux systems from Orelilly publishing. ISBN number 0-596-00222-X it covers lots of these issues...
hello again, i have been able to manage-complie the kernel fine. Now i want to test the redboot build. I have looked at a lot of code and ecos docs but still...
