pichina / mini2440 Goto Github PK

I got the mini2440 from FriendlyARM reseller to write a program for it. 
Since I wanted to develop in X11/GTK, after little research I found that I 
needed GPE. Further research revealed that there is an image available 
with the instructions at: http://narnia.cs.ttu.edu/drupal/node/131.

However, trying to drop the gpe image on the device won't work. I followed 
an instructions, but when I reset the device, it didn't reboot and went to 
the error message on my HyperTerminal. Then I threw the original kernel 
image that came with the device. It didn't boot again, but now it didn't 
boot at all.

Here is some info:

MINI2440 # nand info

Device 0: NAND 256MiB 3,3V 8-bit, page size 2048, sector size 128 KiB

I would like to have a working X11/GPE mini2440 device to start debugging 
my program.

Is there a working solution somewhere either locally or on the Web?

Thank you.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. ./configure --target-list=arm-softmmu
2. make
3.
LINK  arm-softmmu/qemu-system-arm
/usr/bin/ld: vl.o: undefined reference to symbol 'timer_settime@@GLIBC_2.3.3'
/usr/bin/ld: note: 'timer_settime@@GLIBC_2.3.3' is defined in DSO 
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/librt.so.1 so try adding it to the linker command line
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/librt.so.1: could not read symbols: Invalid operation
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [qemu-system-arm] Error 1
make: *** [subdir-arm-softmmu] Error 2

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
git://repo.or.cz/qemu/mini2440.git

gcc version 4.7.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.3-1ubuntu1)

Taking a look on the download area I can find just "console image"; well... may 
be more useful a (working) gpe based image or a full working instruction to 
build something WORKING with openembedded or other tools instead of providing 
"totally unsupported" script... it's a matter of professionality!!!

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Build mini2440-image recipe
2. Flash the kernel uImage to the board
3. reset and watch

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expecting linux boot. Instead of that the kernel boot hangs. Displayed 
load and exec addresses are incorrect - observed 0x20008000, expected 
0x30008000. Probably incorrectly defined mkimage arguments?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Both dev and stable branches

Please provide any additional information below.

I am using the openembedded from the czech mini2440 repository and when I
try to compile a gpe-image I am getting this error

Please provide any additional information below.

When using qemu to emulate the mini2440, releasing the mouse button after 
pressing it in the qemu window doesn't always generate any UP event.
The UP event is generated something like once every 100 clicks.

Using qemu_irq_raise(s->tcirq) in s3c_adc_done is solving that issue. See 
attached patch.
