Re: [android-kernel] What do you need at least kernel version for Android 4.x?

2014-02-10 Thread Ron M
You should be fine with about any version. It would probably be easier for you to start with an Android kernel and add your patches, and you may be lucky enough to have your chipset as one of the published trees (MSM, omap, exynos...). Otherwise start from common.git On Feb 9, 2014 9:50 PM, wrote

1. Its really easy to find: got diff between the branches. You will not find one line answers. 2. If you're asking this question you'll probably live well with both. You are right about the "changelog" but that's the way it is... On Feb 6, 2014 7:13 PM, wrote: > What are the differences between

I think the goldfish drivers don't really work, at least not right out of the box - there seems to be some issue with all the serials ever since the merge on 3.9 or so, so I actually think you need to revert all goldfish commits and then patch your own (from the android-3.4 or so). Tedious, but it

Where did you get goldfish 3.4 from? You don't have goldfish at common.git or any other 3.X kernel, only 2.6.29. If you want to run android emulator - port the drivers. I can help you out with X86 "goldfish" part, could work for ARM, could not work for ARM. Let me know -Ron On Sat, Aug 18, 2012 a

This post is very old - but nothing has changes as far as AOSP is concerned, so in case anyone is interested and runs into this problem when building for QEMU: There is actually a nice and shorter way to build the kernel for your QEMU target provided by the AOSP: 1. cd to your kernel source d
