Hi Mike, I'm certain of what I did wrong now. I pulled the tegra tree from android.git.kernel.org but I didn't do anything to get the right head. So I was missing some things. This is consistent with the errors I saw. Wifi had trouble building and I was missing the tegra glue for ehci unless I manually selected it (even tho I was building with the Xoom config file straight out of /proc.) So me being a git noob killed us. I get the concept, but in practice I'm highly error prone. I believe I have 2 challenges: 1. Figure out the correct git command to get the head from this link: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=kernel/tegra.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/android-tegra-2.6.36-honeycomb (I did this to download the CTC driver off the tarot website before, but I don't remember the exact command) 2. Figure out the correct environment. I don't think it's OK to build in a gingerbread tree using envsetup and "lunch". Obviously some of the things are going to be crespo specific so maybe I'm hosing myself. I used that as a cheap and easy way of getting my toolchains pointed to. Then I just need to turn off mass storage and enable cdc ethernet and I'm good to go! Unfortunately, the big demo is today and it starts at 8am, so there's no time now. Have to go to get out there :( Steve -- Steve Modica CTO - Small Tree Communications www.small-tree.com phone: 651-209-6509 ext 301 mobile: 651-261-3201 -- unsubscribe: android-kernel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com website: http://groups.google.com/group/android-kernel
