Hi ,
I am wondering what are the changes to be made if I have to make to port
rowboat to gumstix overo module.
I did following things but it didn't worked. :-(
I made change in config file , board-overo.c and also added LCD driver.
Compilation went fine with out errors.
But when I tried to run th
Check if console and android.console point to the correct serial device.
Both a kernel parameters sent by u-boot.
Cheers,
Hedwin

Yes, Both console and android.console is pointing to correct serial device
i.e. ttyS2.
My uboot args is
console=ttyS2,115200n8 androidboot.console=ttyS2 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rw
rootfstype=ext3 rootwait init=/init vram=12M
omapfb.mode=dvi:480x272MR-16@60omapdss.def_disp=lcd43
Isn't this correct?
Do you use froyo or gingerbread?

Right now I am trying to move from linux kernel 2.6.32 to 2.6.37 and use
gingerbread 2.3.4.
With linux kernel 2.6.32, froyo and gb 2.3.3 are working fine. I used same
uboot arg as in earlier mail.

What do you mean?
so now uboot args should look something like this
console=ttyS2,115200n8 androidboot.console=ttyO2 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rw
rootfstype=ext3 rootwait init=/init vram=12M omapfb.mode=dvi:480x272MR-16@
60 omapdss.def_disp=lcd43
Is this change in gingerbread 2.3.4 only?

Thanks.Yes, you were right. I tried replacing with O with S. Now I can see
logs in the console.
Can you tell me where in the source code it says use ttyO instead of ttyS? I
couldn't find in the source.

yes, replace ttyS1 with ttyO1
it is a change in the kernel. the kernel now uses omap specific serial
driver and the serial devices are now designated ttyO
The ttyS are reserved for 825x based serial devices the once used
originally in a PC.

Thanks got it.
I think, this changes should be wrote in rowboat wiki. I wasted 2/3 days.

Yes I agree that it should have clearly been put in the wiki.
But I remember that the day Rowboat introduced 2.6.37 kernel branch, a
mail was put on Rowboat mailing list notifying all these necessary
changes.

Amit,
Can you send me link of the thread that notifies all the necessary changes?
Right now, libaudio and surface flinger is crashing. I am planning to use
AUDIO stub and increase size of the mem in uboot.
I know I am almost there.

Krishna,
If you want to try kernel 2.6.32+ Android 2.3.3, here is the link

Yes I have ALSA implemeation for Overo. I haven't tried running alsa
utilities. I will soon try it and let you know about it.

Yes, it is right place. I suggest to follow instructions in
http://code.google.com/p/rowboat/wiki/ConfigureAndBuild and do modification
for overo.

Manish,
Thanks for the details. I am trying to build " 2.6.37 kernel + SGX v 1.7
+ Android-2.3.4" and I'm having trouble compiling the
2.6.37 kernel I got the kernel from http://gitorious.org/rowboat/kernel. Is
that the right place to get the sources for Gumstix overo?
Thanks,

Yes, there is no defconfig file. You have to make one from beagleboard or
igevp defconfig depending upon your hardware. After that you have to do
modification in board-overo.c. Files provided by Hedwin for igevp is good
reference.
There is no such patch from gumstix till now( I guess).
Hope this h
Manish,
> and do modification for overo.
By that do you mean apply some patches? If yes, where can I find them? The
"overo_android_defconfig" doesn't exist in rowboat kernel tree and my
attempts to use one from a v2.6.32 of a gumstix branch doesn't seem to be
going so well.
Appreciate your time.
okay. Thanks. Atleast, now I know what to do...

Amit,
I guess there is a bug in omap display driver. Whenever I pass omap.rotate=2
in uboot args and start android . There is always buffer underflow. The
init android animation screen flickers.
Below is console output:
# warning: `zygote' uses 32-bit capabilities (legacy support in use)
reques
I have to set rotate=2 because my lcd is upside down. Hardware is made like
that way.
It was fine in 2.6.32 kernel.What is the solution for 2.6.37 kernel then?

Thanks. Let me look at the code.

I tried add 'ISurfaceComposer::eOrientation180' for
ro.sf.hwrotation=180 in SurfaceFlinger.cpp
but it does not work.
Is there any other ways to rotate screen?
