Hello OpenMoko developers,
I'm trying to build OpenMoko from scratch via MokoMakefile as described in the
wiki. This worked well for me several weeks ago, so I wasn't expecting any
issues. So far I ran across two problems - one is with OpenEmbedded, the other
with my kernel configuration. As I couldn't find references or solutions to
these in the wiki or the mailing list, I thought it would be best to mention
them here. I'd welcome any hints about whether / how to proceed with the
problems.
###################
One problen I had was a compilation error with libsdl-mixer-1.2.6. This might
be a problem of OpenEmbedded, though:

FATAL: oe_runmake failed
--------
Apparently, (ARM) libc is missing. A closer look at the linker command shows
that although
"-L/home/moko/2007.2/build/tmp/staging/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/usr/lib/"
appears multiple times, a line like
"-L/home/moko/2007.2/build/tmp/staging/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/lib/" is
missing. Guess where libc.a resides?
Now my quick-and-dirty fix to this is to modify the (configure-generated)
Makefile for libsdl-mixer to include the additional linker library search path
when I run across this error. Then I re-run "make openmoko-deve-image", and as
the configure stage is already done and the makefile has been fixed up
manually, the compile stage works now.
This sucks. Unfortunately I don't know where to look in the OpenEmbedded
framework to make sure the additional linker library search path is passed to
configure in the corresponding stage as things ought to be. I understand that
shell scripts are generated for every package somewhere along the process which
care about the package's stages.
I'm in need of some pointers here.
###################
The second problem was related to the kernel config of my machine - nonetheless
I find it interesting enough to mention. When building glibc-2.6.1-r4 qemu
wouldn't run glibc's (ARM native) localedef
(glibc-2.6.1-r4/locale-tree/bin/localedef). Thanks to strace it turns out that
qemu wants to mmap memory below a certain address but gets EACCESS in return.
In my case mmap needed to map to 0x8000, so "echo 128
>/proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr" sure fixed me up. I'm mentioning this here for
documentation purposes.
###################
Additionally I encountered the "xserver-kdrive configure fails" problem
described here:
<http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/distro-devel/2008-April/000425.html>. The
fix described there works for me.

Thilo Fromm
