Hi Alan I dow load the kernel from " http://git.xilinx.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-2.6-xlnx.git;a=summary " Merge ../../linux-2.6 into 2.6.26-merge master commit | commitdiff | tree | snapshot this version ,but it not work well,which version you downloaded? Many thanks yanlong Alan Casey wrote:
Hi, Yes i had a problem with using one of the Linux 2.6.26 kernel versions on the XUPV2P board where the VGA display has not driven correctly, not sure why. The Linux 2.6.24 kernel from git.xilinx.com works fine. Regards, Alan.quoted

git.xilinx.com on the Xilinx XUPV2P board but have run into a few problems. Cross-compiler i use to compile applications was built using Crosstools and based on gcc 3.3.4. I use Xilinx EDK 7.1 for integrating hardware peripherals onto the board. The problems i've seen are: (i) gettimeofday software function returns time of 0 all the time. (ii) The Linux 2.6.24 kernel's Xilinx Framebuffer driver and/or the Xilinx PLB TFT Controller IP block (plb_tft_cntlr_ref_v1_00_d) does not appear to centre the display on a VGA screen properly(vertically offset). (iii) 64-bit write/read access to peripheral integrated onto the Xilinx Virtex-II Pro FPGA either causes a system crash or only lowerpartquoted

as 64-bit write/read access to the SDRAM memory address space. Peripheral interface has been verified to be IBM PLB compliantquoted
via IBM bus functional model simulations. (iv) The Linux 2.6.26 Xilinx Framebuffer driver on the Xilinx XUPV2P board does not appear to be working - nothing displayed to screen/console not switching to framebuffer device on bootup. Just wondering if anybody has seen these issues before and know howtoquoted
resolve them? Any info. appreciated, Regards, Alan. _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-embedded mailing list Linuxppc-embedded@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-embedded-- View this message in context:
