Hi, Was wondering what would the procedure be to compile hidcomp http://hidcomp.sourceforge.net/ with this image that I am currently running, bone-debian-7.11-machinekit-armhf-2017-01-22-4gb.img.xz.
I have the sources for both hidcomp ( pulled from https://github.com/ftkalcevic/hidcomp) and machinekit (pulled from github a couple of months ago) and with a few changes, just copying over the machinekit hal.h to the hidcomp source tree and adding a couple of defines I got it to compile and run on a x86 laptop with a RIP posix build. I use the laptop to test configs and such, easier than the BBB in the garage. I've lashed up a test device on a sparkfun ProMicro using the LUFA libs and I can talk to the deivce using both halinput & hidcomp. The reason I would like to use hidcomp is to be able to have more than 11 leds (linux kernel limit with the input subsystem for keyboard LEDs). The reason for this avenue is to be able to have a hardware control panel for some basic switches & indicators. As it is halinput is ok with the ProMirco, but eventually I would like to use a teensy for a bit more I\O. If a docker container is the go for cross compiling, is anyone able to supply some step by step instructions (really simple ones).....I had a go last night had some issues. Or should I just burn the image I have to a SD card, download all the required tools & libs to build, and go from there. Or........does anyone have some pointers to using python and pysub, if this is a viable option ?
