Re: B2 rev RD serial access

1. I shall test it as MouettE did ( contact the TX and the RX wires together on the cable, open a console and see if sent characters echo back ). Don't know only how to open a console on my Arch linux desktop system and how to send characters? 1. You can use screen or minicom to open a terminal on ...

Debian dist-upgrade on B2 & B3

Hi, these days come out the new Debian release, the so called Jessie. I have running the Wheezy Debian system without Bubba packages, but Bubba kernel, on my Bubba 2. Is it safe to dist-upgrade now from Wheezy to Jessie? I have installed Bubba kernel: Linux b2 3.2.62-1 #1 Mon Aug 25 04:22:40 UTC 201...

Re: B2 Building a Custom kernel - menuconfig issue

Good job. Don't think the kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi folder is required, because if you look at the console output the modules are taken from the extra folder. Most likely depmod was not executed correctly from the install procedure. Thank you and Mouette for help. Indeed, the new rtlwifi....

Re: B2 Building a Custom kernel - menuconfig issue

'-1' is the correct value. This is because extravalue can be anything, from '.1' to ' -1' to '+abc'. As for editing source code, that doesn't apply to you. The interesting part is this: make -C /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build M=$(pwd) modules make -C /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build M=$(pwd) modules_i...

Re: B2 Building a Custom kernel - menuconfig issue

Note of caution: If you remove the 'bubba3-kernel' package, it will also remove the associated modules. The above therefore should only be done if you're creating an entirely new kernel and its modules. If you're building this on the B2 itself, be prepared that it will take several hours to complet...

Re: B2 Building a Custom kernel - menuconfig issue

Voilà you now have a kernel with modules in output. To install it on your b3 just copy the contents of output inside the root of your b3. I strongly recommend to backup the original /boot/uImage file in case you need to go back. If everything is satisfactory, I suggest you remove the kernel package...

Re: B2 Building a Custom kernel - menuconfig issue

You don't need to load an alternate config file ; just follow the steps in my post above and forget about the wiki page (except the part 'Installing the compilation tools' to install necessary tools). OK I will do that today. But I have Bubba 2. And I do these steps on my Bubba 2. Shall I install i...
