This is HOWTO to make devkit8000 work with meego 1. update u-boot to 2010.06 2. download kernel from 2.6-stable-devkit8000 3. get the board-devkit8000.c, id.c, id.h from gitorious.org/devkit8000/linux-omap-devkit8000.git and replace the one in 2.6-stable-devkit8000. ( this step is very important. otherwise you wont get DM9000 and USB......etc work ) 4.build 2.6-stable-devkit8000 ( result: uImage 4.3M) 5. Follow meego on beagleboard from scratch and create rootfs and SGX driver. 4.0.0 6. SD card needs to have SWAP partition. 7. set u-boot command omapdss.vrm=0:12M,1:0M,2:0M (in my case, 4M:4M:4M does not work for me)

Does /dev/fb[0-2] exist? 2. For meego-dm killed, I think it's due to the sgx driver. I recomment you to build the rootfs according to http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/Meego_on_Beagleboard_from_scratch#Prepare_SGX.2FGLES_libs First use create_sgx_module.sh to create the lib file, then put the lib in some place, and use image-creator to build the rootfs under the place, well, you should use the specific kickstart file in the above url (in my opinion, or if you are familiar with kickstart, you can write it yourself) 3. For mcompositor, sorry , I don't encouter this problem, so I cannot give you any advice 2010/9/28 Chen Dai <daichen...@gmail.com> Hi, With gw's suggestions, I successfully mounted the rootfs via NFS, and booted the kernel. But unfortunately, the LCD is still black. I checked the Xorg.0.log, there are two errors, 1. dlopen of /usr/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so failed, No such file or directory . 2. Error opening /sys/devices/platform/omapfb/ctrl/name: No such file or directory if run startx: ok if run meego-dm :"killed" if run "/usr/bin/mcompositor" :mcompositor: cannot connect to X server For the error 1, I installed mesa-dri-swrast-driver-7.8.99.1~gitb018ea19a3-3.5.armv7l.rpm and libtalloc-2.0.1-1.7.armv7l.rpm for the devkit8000. The problem is solved. For the error 2, I don't know how to fix it, I thinks maybe it is the problem why LCD is black. I use the latest 2.6 stable to build the kernel, and use the this kickstart file to create the image. My bootarg is setenv bootargs 'console=ttyS2,115200n8 root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.168.16.54:/home/rootfs,hard,tcp,rsize=65536,wsize=65536 ip=dhcp rw rootdelay=5 omapdss.def_disp=lcd omapfb.vram=0:2M,1:0M,2:0M omapfb.mode=lcd:800x480' Can you give some advice? The logs are attached. Thanks in advice!

Oh i cheated on that one and didn't really do any work, those were the patches merged in 2.6.36-rc's for the devkit8000.. from git i did: git format-patch -18 arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-devkit8000.c and only the first 11 are appropriate, as 12-16 are bits from the omap merge for 2.6.36.. btw, can you do Chen and I a favor... I need a complete boot log for comparison on a working devkit8000.. Using cutecom or a serial terminal that logs to a file.. Start logging.. Power up board Stop u-boot: type "printenv" reboot the board wait till login prompt shows up. un power board stop logging pastebin the file..
