Wifi in LE32B550?

[erdem_ua]

This needed to wikified. It's not ready yet.
You needed to download SamyGO OE than compile new linux kernel for your TV. After you needed to change your uboot code and needed to boot from USB with new kernel....
Also need new wifi kernel modules to load...
Some detailed actions needed to imply that hack. I believe aquadran will prepare a wiki page on this soon.

B550 has u-boot but not efective.
Since B550 doesn't have Ethernet (and PCI bus) u-boot freezing.
Changed u-boot allow external USB firmware loading.
Some users changed their u-boot and booted their B550 via USB Flash. Used hand compiled kernels and enabled network via WiFi....

I recompiled my rootfs using OE for my B550 with kernel network support. I have an usb ethernet dongle and linux driver sources but i cant manage to cross compile it for ARM. Any help would be nice as cross compiling drivers seems not trivial at all.

i think it's not so hard to find documentation how to create bitbake recipes for openembedded.

btw.
http://linux.zsolttech.com/Samsung/dm96 ... L5DEUC.zip you know, report pls.

i have no infos about your tv, so i hope module version string and kernel settings are ok.

Thank your very much, i dont know much about how openembededd is working but yeah i need to read about "recipes" stuff . The module you give is loading successfully with insmod, dmesg:

Code: Select all

usbcore: registered new driver dm9601

but i cannot see the device with ifconfig. Did you add the usb id into the header dm9601.h to force detecting the device by the driver? (i'm referring to this link: http://21500.net/?tag=sr9600 ). Also i have lshw tool that can not detect the device. When i first load the driver then after plug the dongle it's crashing . I'm using usb hub:

Code: Select all

root@localhost:~# usb 3-1.2: USB disconnect, address 4
hub 3-1:1.0: cannot reset port 1 (err = -110)
hub 3-1:1.0: cannot reset port 1 (err = -110)
hub 3-1:1.0: cannot reset port 1 (err = -110)
hub 3-1:1.0: cannot reset port 1 (err = -110)
hub 3-1:1.0: cannot reset port 1 (err = -110)
hub 3-1:1.0: Cannot enable port 1.  Maybe the USB cable is bad?

try to direct connect the dongle.
1. turn on tv
2. load module usbcore
3. dmesg
4. load dm9601
5. dmesg
6. plug dongle in
7. dmesg
8. ifconfig eth0 up
9. dmesg
10. udhcpd eth0
11. dmesg
