16:14 | fira | Hey there |
16:17 | jnettlet | hola |
16:18 | fira | I was told there's some i.MX6 hackers around, and could use a little help with my builds... I'm trying to build an image for i.MX6Quad with Buildroot using i.MX specific accel libs, but can't manage to get a working kernel from FreeScale's source. Anyone got some tips for me ? |
16:22 | jnettlet | what board are you using? |
16:25 | fira | a SABRE-SDB, i'll have to check the specific variant though... |
16:27 | fira | but i can't get past the build stage on FreeScale's code. Already build & ran vanilla 3.14.17 with I-pipe patch, Xenomai3/Cobalt patch and a RTnet driver crammed in, but now i've been asked to shove GPU Accel in the mix -- and can't get anything at all out of FreeScale's kernel source |
16:27 | jnettlet | Well you are more than welcome to try the kernel we maintain. https://github.com/SolidRun/linux-fslc Many community members provide device-tree files and patches for various iMX6 based boards. |
16:28 | jnettlet | I would recommend using the imx_v7_cbi_hb_defconfig config file and then making changes if needed for your board. I have a couple of kernel specific tweaks in there. |
16:30 | fira | Oh, that looks interesting :D I'll give it a try. Thanks a bunch |
16:31 | jnettlet | if you need to patch anything please send pull requests with the fixes. |
