Post here binaries of programs built for the CS-407/DS-107+

[m.aicardi]

With Scratchbox some of us finally succeed in building programs for the CS-407.

I have opened this thread to invite people who build programs for the CS-407 to post here the URLs of the binaries in order for us to help each other.

I have already posted the gnu/screen, and now I have built the gnu/tar program.

I have built that because the tar included in the CubeStation firmware is the one taken from BusyBox, and is limited to filenames of 100 characters maximum.

The gnu/tar has NOT this limit.

You can download the binary here.

What prefix to use? "/opt" or "/usr/local" ?

[ed_x]

/opt, since that can easily be linked to your /volume1/opt

i've managed to build a program called kissdx on my ds-107+.
kissdx is used so you can play your music/images and videos directly on your kiss dvd recorder. For more info about kissdx, see http://kissdx.vidartysse.net/.
Download kissdx version for your ds-107+/cs-407 at http://www.sivard.nl/kissdx/kissdx.tar

In order to make it work i've also build the following libraries:
libcharset
libdvdread
libiconv
libjpeg

Look at http://www.sivard.nl/kissdx/install.txt for the installation instruction of kissdx.
Have fun with it.

I love you, man!

How do you build? Using ScratchBox? Whatever else? I have problems building MANY programs (like prozilla or nano), which exit with a "Illegal instruction" error

I used the crosstool-0.43 with the patch from http://www.mitlaender.de/linux/ct0_43-ds107+.tar.gz which i installed under cygwin. I also tried the ScratchBox but i got the same result as you did.

This is how i installed the crosstool.

building crosstool for ds-107+ on Cygwin

-requirements install cygwin. under c:\cygwin.
read http://www.kegel.com/crosstool/current/ ... tml#cygwin before you install it.
make sure you also install the following packages:
bison
flex
gcc (and dependencies)
make
patch
wget

1. open cygwin
2. if /opt not exists, cd /, mkdir opt chmod +rwx opt.
3. cd /opt
4. download crosstool-0.43.tar.gz from http://www.kegel.com and copy it in /opt
5. tar -xzvf crosstool-0.43.tar.gz
6. download http://www.mitlaender.de/linux/ct0_43-ds107+.tar.gz and copy it in /opt/crosstool-0.43/
7. cd /opt/crosstool-0.43/
8. tar -xzvf ct0_43-ds107+.tar.gz
9. ./armv5te.sh and wait untill it is ready or fails.
note: the install program sometimes fails because it requires some libraries which might not be installed.
Just install the missing library with the setup of cygwin and run ./armv5te.sh again. Repeat this untill
all the missing libraries are installed.
10. edit the file /etc/profile.
add to the PATH variable the directory /opt/ct/crosstool/gcc-3.4.3-glibc-2.3.2/arm-v5te-linux-gnu/bin
it will look like this.
PATH=/opt/ct/crosstool/gcc-3.4.3-glibc-2.3.2/arm-v5te-linux-gnu/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:$PATH
export PATH
11. save the file and restart the prompt. check your environment with the commando "env".

12. put your files which you want to compile in e.g. /opt/ct/downloads.
13. unpack them.
14. Go to the directory.
15. use e.g. this commando to configure the package. ./configure CC='arm-v5te-linux-gnu-gcc-3.4.3' CXX='arm-v5te-linux-gnu-g++' STRIP='arm-v5te-linux-gnu-strip' --prefix=/opt --host=arm-v5te-linux-gnu --target=arm-v5te-linux-gnu --build=i686-pc-linux
16. make.
17. make install.
18. export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/lib

This file does NOT exist anymore. It redirects to

[sivard]

ok thanx. Changed it in the post.

Thanks a lot Sivard !

Do you know if it will work for the CS-407 too or is it limited to DS-107+ ?
CS-407 and DS-107+ have the same processor but i'm not sure they use the same kernel

[sivard]

don't. i only have a ds-107+. But my guess would be yes. Maybe someone with a cs-407 can try to install it and let us know the results.

That's what I'm trying to do right now

[m.aicardi]

The CygWin packages that are not included in the default installation and that are needed are:

Code: Select all

bison
flex
gcc (and dependencies)
make
patch
wget

Manually add them before launching the ./armv5te.sh script.

Going on with the testing...

i own a 407, i'll try to install that as soon as i can find time to test

Cool, i can't wait to know the result, i hope everything will be fine

It's some HOURS that the snail-notebook is building the cross-compiler... (I'm on holiday in Corse, right now) Will let you know soon, I hope
