The text here below gives a recipe to upgrade to 2.6.35 and to patch the cx25840 module for cropping support.
The patches and firmwares are at http://picaros.org/pvrusb/ . Linux-2.6.35 If you intend to compile with a gcc before version 4.1 the patch linuxgcc is required. This patch just reorganizes a tiny bit of code. The patch cx25840-2.6.35 adds crop support. config - relocateble kernel: off - media pvrusb2: on since this autoselects all the other modules - soft watchdog timer: on - enable sysrq: Alt+SysRq+B reboots the system make bzImage && make modules && make modules_install pvrusb2-mci-20100708 The patch pvrusb2-mci-20100708x adds the crop calls to the v4l2 subdevices. It also redefines the installation directory as INSTALL_MOD_DIR := kernel/drivers/media/video/pvrusb2 so 'make install' will overwrite the kernel module. Make sure that the current kernel remains bootable. I use 3 images: linux vmlinuz, old vmlinuz.old, keep vmlinuz.keep. Hence the linux 'make install' only touches the first two. All seems to be working well, except for 'rmmod pvrusb2' which hangs forever. If the cx25840 code works well for 525 systems then it might perhaps be worthwile to take a chance with it on the linux-media mailinglist. -vdb. _______________________________________________ pvrusb2 mailing list [email protected] http://www.isely.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pvrusb2
