  • DHCP in armStoneA8

    Hello,


    yes, this is the kernel .config file you have to change. You can do this with "make menuconfig". There you have to enable the <<Packet Socket [y]>> module.
    A liitle bit more about building the kernel is described in the README from fs-net.

  • DHCP in armStoneA8

    Hi,


    the busybox udhcpc uses af_packet, a kernel module. This wasn't enabled in the fs.net default config, I enabled it, and my wlan+dhcp worked.
    -> Networking support (NET [=y])
    -> Networking options
    -> Packet Socket [y] <-- should be enabled


    Hope this helps
    Best regards

  • USB not working

    @FS Support regarding fifo_mask problem:
    I compiled the kernel with a codesourcery toolchain from 2008. This worked well, except this issue with the fifo_mask.
    Today I compiled the kernel with the toolchain downloaded from your site and it worked without any error. So this was some kind of compiler "bug" (or different handling of the C-Standard).


    Regarding the usb ehci ohci issue:
    Here <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/usb/ehci.txt">http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Document ... b/ehci.txt</a><!-- m --> and <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/usb/ohci.txt">http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Document ... b/ohci.txt</a><!-- m --> is some more general information about this 2 types of hostcontrollers, if anyone want to know more about it.

  • USB not working

    Hi,


    I encountered a similar problem with USB, mass storage worked, but the mice haven't been detected...


    My Solution: Since mice are (mostly) using lowspeed usb, which is not handled by EHCI, it is necessary to have also OHCI support. EHCI is passing lowspeed devices to the OHCI driver and everything should work.
    To do this, it is necessary to change the kernel .config: (make menuconfig)
    Device Drivers --->
    [*] USB support --->
    <*> OHCI HCD support
    [*] OHCI support for Samsung S5PV210 SoC Series


    Then, after typing "make" u get your new zImage in arch/arm/boot.


    (My gcc gave me first an error: "following symbols must have non local/private scope: fifo_mask" and refused building the zImage. Solution: arch/arm/plat-samsung/include/plat/uncompress.h Line 24: change to "unsigned int fifo_mask;" )


    Best regards
