* Xubuntu and Xenomai on the Lite5200 (IceCube)...

Hi all,

I got the task to help make Linux run on the IceCube, with support for MSCAN, 
FEC and USB. After a rather exciting jurney I managed to get kernel 2.6.18 
working with bestcomm DMA and FEC support backported from DENX's git 
2.6.19-rcsomething, and Xenomai installed upon that.
Btw, before Wolfgang Denk starts complaining why I didn't use his 2.4 kernel, 
it's because I wasn't smart enough to get USB working. If it does work, 
please tell me how, I just get errors when plugging in a USB device "kernel: 
usb.c: USB device not accepting new address=2 (error=-110)". 
This seems to work fine in 2.6, though.
It was not easy, so I wrote everything down (I hope I didn't forget anything 
important):

http://yopesblog.blogspot.com/2006/10/how-to-run-ubuntu-and-xenomai-on.html

If anyone wants to tell me what I did wrong (probably a lot), please tell me.
I am posting this to the list hoping someone else will benefit from it. I 
certainly would have.

Greetings,

Hello, David,

We have had the same problem,

after enabling pci in the kernelconfig,
usb is working.

best regards

Achim

Duh. And how is one supposed to know that?
Thanks for the tip ;-)

Congratulations, that's good work!  Especially the bit about
documenting what you did!  I've been meaning to play w/ xenomai for a
while now.

Care to help with the port to arch/powerpc now?  :P

You aren't. I consider this a bug, too. Actually, this is supposed to
be fixed in the current tree.

Best regards,

Thanks. I hope this makes searching-time shorter for you.
I wish I could remember more details about what I exactly changed to make the 
kernel compile after backporting bestcomm and FEC... I vaguely remember 
adding "#include <platform_device.h>" to at least two files...

> Care to help with the port to arch/powerpc now?  :P

I would really like to, but I have very limited time to dedicate to such 
things. If I get the chance to do something about it, I'll do it, I promise. 
The time will come when I'll have to port our own board-support stuff to 
arch/powerpc... so...
