Hello, I am trying to find out how to build the Rowboat 3.2 Kernel and apply it over the latest Angstrom build in the hope to get to a working OS which works for LCD Capes, such as the LCD4, LCD7, 4DCAPE-43T and 4DCAPE-70T
I have been told that going back to a stable 3.2 kernel may result in a more favourable outcome, as current the touch issues present on the 3.8 Kernel almost render the capes useless. I have been emailing Robert Nelson. Thanks very much for your help. Just need some help to ensure I am doing it correctly, and also how I go about getting the built kernel onto the BBB as I have never done that. So to start with, I am going to try and use the 2014-01-03 Distribution: http://downloads.angstrom-distribution.org/demo/beaglebone/testing/ I have just installed VM Player on my PC and have Ubuntu 13.10 installed. I am following the instructions from here: http://elinux.org/Building_BBB_Kernel and here: http://wiki.beyondlogic.org/index.php/BeagleBoneBlack_Building_Kernel Robert said to do the following bits instead: *git clone git://gitorious.org/rowboat/kernel.gitcd kernel/git checkout rowboat-am335x-kernel-3.2 -b tmpmake ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=${CC} am335x_evm_android_defconfigmake ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=${CC} zImage modules* I am still working on that, but after this is complete, I am not sure what the easiest method is to get it on the BBB or if there is anything else I need to do? I wanted to start this so others could also follow if they wanted to, as I am sure I wont be the only one who has little experience with this Thanks Terry -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
