Hi Thomas,

Are you booting with DeviceTree or legacy using the IGEPv2 board file?

I can take a look to this but I don't know if Tony is still accepting bugfixes
for board files.

twl4030 based audio should already work with DT as far as I know.

Can you please try using DT? I don't have access to my IGEPv2 right now but I'm
going to try with both DT and legacy boot too.

To boot the IGEPv2 with DT:

$ make omap2plus_defconfig
$ make -j4 zImage
$ make dtbs
$ mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x80008000 -e 0x80008000 -n Linux
-d arch/arm/boot/zImage uImage-omap2plus
$ make omap3-igep0020.dtb
$ cp uImage-omap2plus /media/boot/uImage
$ cp arch/arm/boot/dts/omap3-igep0020.dtb /media/boot

and the following uEnv.txt file:

dtbaddr=0x81600000
kerneladdr=0x80000000
bootargs-base=console=ttyO2,115200n8 console=tty0
mmc-bootargs=setenv bootargs ${bootargs-base} root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rw rootwait
mmc-boot=run mmc-bootargs; mmc rescan; fatload mmc 0:1 ${kerneladdr} uImage;
fatload mmc 0:1 0x81600000 omap3-igep0020.dtb; fdt addr ${dtbaddr}; fdt resize;
bootm ${kerneladdr} - ${dtbaddr}

uenvcmd=run mmc-boot

Best regards,
Javier
