The ubuntu.com line on http://trac.64studio.com/pdk/wiki/BuildingMedia 
is just there as an example; Canonical doesn't actually provide a PDK 
service (yet).

We should probably update that page to provide a real working example.

OK, please let us know how you get on.

Thanks for the feedback!

Re: PDK mylinux firstrun

Hi Daniel,

After Free updated the Making Repositories and Building Media pages,

http://trac.64studio.com/pdk/wiki/HowTo

I rebuilt the iso again and
installed a nice snappy ubuntu desktop here using just 1.1 Gig! 
mylinux "workspace" used 2.0 Gig of space to build the iso,
which was 311.4 MB when built.
First time I have ever built a distro.
Thank you both for the help.

Cheers,
dave.

Re: [SOLVED] Compiling kernel modules version mismatch - line6usb

Free Ekanayaka wrote:

I've solved (or worked around) this issue.  I compiled my own kernel and used 
the in-tree version of alsa (instead of an out-of-tree version, as is done in 64 
Studio).  Now when I compile and load the driver, everything works fine.  (FYI, 
I used 2.6.26.5-rt9 and line6usb 0.7.4-pre-SVN-495.)

Since it has been a few months since I reported this issue, here's the original 
post:

Hi guys!

I compiled the line6usb kernel driver, but it wouldn't load unless I force it.
When I force it, it works fine, but complains about a module/kernel version
mismatch. However, I built it against the right headers.

Why does the module version not match? How should I go about compiling this
module? Is it possibly a GCC version mismatch?

More details....

The line6usb kernel driver project is hosted here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/line6linux

Every time I load the module, I get these messages:

# dmesg | tail
line6usb: disagrees about version of symbol snd_card_disconnect

git repository for PDK

Hello,

I would like to help work on the PDK development, since I intend to use
it. I've observed using the Trac Browser that it is maintained using
git. What location should I clone?

Should this be the right list to post patches or discussion about
improvements?

Best regards,
Thadeu Cascardo.

Well, we didn't really imagine to get feedback on PDK that soon :) So
the git repository isn't online yet and the project has still no
mailing list.

I've asked Daniel James (holder of the 64studio.com domain) to add a
git.64studio.com subdomain, where I will publish the official PDK git
repository. We have been using svn till now, and I'm now migrating
projects to git, that's why we don't have a git.64studio.com yet.

In the meantime you can get the latest source code (version 0.9.6)
with:

deb-src http://apt.64studio.com/backports 64studio

and

apt-get source pdk

That's done, should be visible soon.

The basic documentation is good enough to get started with now, I've 
tested it and people can build a distro by following the steps. Next we 
need to update the documentation on building and maintaining components.

Unless you think we could use 64studio-devel for PDK matters?

Cheers!

Being it a project on its own, I would go for a dedicated mailing list.

We now have gitweb at:

http://git.64studio.com

In particular you can clone pdk.git with:

git clone git://git.64studio.com/pdk.git

or

git clone http://git.64studio.com/git/pdk.git

  >>I will let you know as soon as we have a mailing list

The new list is there, I'm Cc:ing it already :) You can subscribe at:

I've done so, and added the link to this and gitweb to the PDK wiki. 
Should we enable pdk-devel subscribers to have Trac access automatically?

Also, gitweb needs a description of the project. Shall we simply have 
'64 Studio Platform Development Kit'?

Cheers!

Good idea, I'll do that.

Ok, I'll add it as soon as I figure out how to do that :)
