compiling st1232.ko #363

Open rkwiles opened 9 years ago

rkwiles commented 9 years ago

I used the directions on the Source page to build the kernel and that was successful with out any changes by me. I then ran the menuconfig and added the Sitronix st1232 touch controller. It compiled with out errors, I then copied the st1232.ko file to my cubieboard2 running. Linux Cubian 3.4.75-sun7i #35 SMP PREEMPT Sat Feb 8 02:10:31 CST 2014 armv7l GNU/Linux

I added the st1232.ko to the /lib/modules/3.4.75-sun7i/kernel/drivers/input/touchscreen directory and ran depmod -a

When I try and use modprobe st1232 it gives me the following error ERROR: could not insert 'st1232': Exec format error and adds a line to the dmesg of [ 109.884593] st1232: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout

Why does this not work? And how can I correct this?

Thanks

Here, this might help. If you're still not sure I'll try and provide further assistance.

The simplest way is recompile the whole kernel then install kernel and modules to your board

Having trouble compiling.

Maybe I installed Patrick Wood version instead of the mmplayer version.

I tried to find the source version I have on my cubieboard but no luck.

So I have been trying to compile either the mmplayer version or the Patrick Wood version found at github.

When I compile the mmplayer version using the directions at

http://cubian.org/sources/

I get asked a lot of questions, I do not know the answers to, when I do the modules_install build part.

The Patrick Wood code does not supple a .config file that I can find so tried to use the one from the mmplayer directions.

It fails to build of course.

Not sure what I am going to do at this point. Banging my head against a wall just gives me a headache.

What's the problem of modules_install?

Hi You can download the header package through apt, then compile the driver
