2003-07-12 Thread R. Scott Baer


make copy_libdeps
I'll see if it works when I get home tonight...
I can start freevo,, with no errors.  
But cant see if it start up on my tv.. 
I'm at work.. ssh'ed in to my box..
 

We'll my works not done yet...  I can start freevo with no errors.. but 
the display still apears on my monitor and not the tv.
I do get a blue background.. that freevo sits in now.. and I'm assuming 
that is the directfb backgroud.  

The problem may be in my kernal...  if anyone who had directfb working 
with a G400 would not mind.. could you send me your kernal config file.. 
preferably a rh9.. but not nessisarily.  

heres the parts of my dmesg:

This last part (from the ***) is what happens when I try to start the

my freevo.config

chanlist = us-cable
display = dfbmga
geometry = 720x480
jpegtran = ./runtime/apps/jpegtran
mplayer = /usr/local/bin/mplayer
tv = ntsc
tvtime = ./runtime/apps/tvtime/tvtime
version = 2.0
Anyone have any ideas ???

Ok.. I've built all the files... and installed them.
http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/DocumentationPage_2fInstallDeps
1.14, 1.15
   -files are no-longer on htt://freevo.sourceforge.net/filename.tgz
1.19
   -spelling error
 python setyp.py build---should be setup.py
 python setyp.py install   ---should be setup.py


I now need to create the dll folder.
I see this is done in the /runtime/Makefile

If I try to run this file I get:

Please see the Makefile source and Wiki for more info!

But theirs not more info on how to do this.. that I've found.

Would it be possible to get the scripts that were used to build freevo-1.2.5
???
I would like to build compatible freevo-1.2.5.. where everything is the
same.. except that it was build with a newer glibc..(2.3.2). I would like to
make this into an rpm, or just tar up the dll folder so anyone can use it if
they like.

The best thing to do is rebuild the runtime yourself (or install from
packages for your distribution) since getting around this libc stuff
will be non-trivial.

Maybe Rob can use the sdl-dfb patch for the next runtime...

You should patch it from the SDL12 directory and use -p0... if it
didn't patch properly, it's likely it won't work.

2003-07-10 Thread David Amiel
Ok I had the same pb than scott, directfb wasn't recognize pas sdl configure
script.
To do so I had to do "export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/"

now when I lanch freevo it complains
# ./freevo
./runtime/apps/freevo_python: ./runtime/dll/libpthread.so.0: version
`GLIBC_2.3.2' not found (required by /lib/libdirectfb-0.9.so.18)

or
# rpm -q -a|grep glibc
glibc-2.3.2-4.80
glibc-kernheaders-2.4-8.10
glibc-common-2.3.2-4.80
glibc-devel-2.3.2-4.80

keep trying to male it works on tv

While I was looking at SDL a little closer.. I decided to recompile and view
the results...

checking for DirectFB support... no

I have a thread on SDL mailing list to find out how to get it to see my
directfb install.
I tired this with SDL-1.2.4 & -1.2.5.

Thanks for all your help..
I'll let you guys know when I'm up and running...

It doesn't have to be a module, but it does have to exist. 

Do you see your G400 in dmesg showing up under i2c?

I have:

CONFIG_I2C_CHARDEV=y

should this be a module ??

I did not do a depmod -a, but did a modprobe i2c-dev (though I shouldn't
have had to, sense it wasn't a module.)

right when I'm typing this.. I realized.. that the module is not going to
show up...  if it isn't a module.. it should be in the bzImage correct ??

Do you suggest I make it a module ??

You need to /build/ the i2c-dev module... look at your .config file in
your linux source tree; you should have this line (exactly like this)

CONFIG_I2C_CHARDEV=m

And then when you install the new kernel, run depmod -a, you can run
"modprobe i2c-dev"

2003-07-09 Thread R. Scott Baer
Sorry for the delay... we had some huge storms pass threw.. and I was
without power for a little under 24hrs...

> Ok, let's just double check:

Yes.. though the patch was for 1.2.4, and I'm useing 1.2.5.
The patch aplied fine, with not failed chunks.

Yes, yes and yes...

H..  I looked for the i2c-dev, and it was not in my
/lib/modules/2.4/kernel/driver/i2c/ dir

I was sure I build this, and still have the source dir where I built the
kernel.  And it was their, I looked at the .config file, and it was selected
to build.

I have the following in the ../i2c/

i2c-dev.h
i2c-dev.o

I tried coping the i2c-dev.o file over to my
/lib/modules/2.4/kernel/driver/i2c/  ..but that did not work.

Frustrated, I built another kernel... with all the DirectFB patches...
double checked my config... before building.
make clean
make mrproper
make clean   --not sure if this is nessasary
make menuconfig--or xconifg if X is running
make dep
vi Makefile  and edit EXTRAVERSION = -19.8.0_Blah_Blah_Blah
make bzImage #
make modules # make bzImage & modules are done at the same time (two
terminals)
make modules_install
cp bzImage to /boot
/sbin/mkinitrd /boot/initrd-19.8.0_Blah_Blah_Blah  19.8.0_Blah_Blah_Blah
edit grub
reboot into new kernel

Same result..  it did not install the i2c-dev module.

Now I'm stumped..

Any one out their using the stock RH9 kernel config, that could diff it for
me with the DirectFB stuff, or just send me the .config file that you used
with a RH9 system.  (I'm would like to use a stock RH9 config file, with
only the changes necessary for DirectFB to work with freevo)

Is their a place and the site were people could upload/download .config
files for different distributions / version ???

Ok, let's just double check:

1. You have patched SDL with the patch from CVS
2. You're running Freevo as root and have "dfbmga" and "720x480" in
freevo.conf in the appropriate spots

I also was only able to get it to work by installing the i2c-dev
module, and I used the fusion device from directfb...

The one about pygame not being able to find an output?

Are you using the 'freevo' boot script in  boot/? 

That script has a 'export SDL_VIDEODRIVER=fbcon' in it, sso you'd need
to change that.

Are you running ./freevo or boot/freevo start

I did "try" to try this.. I'm not sure if this is an evn varable, or
something in freevo.
I exported the variable in my shell before I ran freevo... it didnt help.

He said dfbmga was working through mplayer, which is why I didn't
suggest that... SDL_VIDEODRIVER might help, but SDL is supposed to use
the first available device, if you don't use X11 or fbcon, it should
try dfb.

I don't recall what I had to do to get it to work but that was the
configuration I had when I did... I'm not sure if the depth is
mandatory, but it's worth trying.

I should mention that I don't find much benefit in dfbmga; I know it
/should/ be better for all the technical reasons, but the standard
mga_vid and fbcon work fine, even if fbcon isn't hardware accelerated
as much.

Don't you also have to export SDL_VIDEODRIVER=directfb ? Also make sure 
the matroxfb_* modules are not loaded (or compiled in your kernel).

you should set freevo to 720x480 for NTSC. It might
be causing problems if SDL tries to resize the window to 800x600.

Do you have your /etc/directfbrc configured? What resolution is Freevo
setup to run at (in freevo.conf) and are you running as root?

I tried setting display to fbcon --- I think I read that someplace.. but
could be wrong.. their have been many late nights while working on this.. 
I could have been delusional.but when I did set it came up on the
monitor.. not the tv.

I've compiled/installed SDL-1.2.5
recomplied mplayer, and verifyed the dfbmga is available.

and  made a soft link to the file:
ln -s /usr/local/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0
/usr/local/freevo/runtime/dll/libSDL-1.2.so.0
(I did make a back up of the org file first.)

If I run mplayer with the -vo dfbmga, it works no problem, and displays
nicely on my tv.



Thanks for your help..

I don't want to sound rude, but

1. This happens to people who add a different posting in an existing
   thread. Some people refuses to answer to such posts, other people
   may have killed the thread -- so by adding something in this
   thread, they automaticly deleted posting.

2. I can't help you until you provide more details. What is working,
