As you suggested, I followed the instruction found in the link http://docswiki.gumstix.com/Buildroot#Troubleshooting. That is "After installing texinfo, you should verify that the makeinfo command is in your PATH (i.e. type makeinfo on the command line and make sure it's not missing). Finally, do=20 cd gumstix-buildroot rm -rf toolchain_build_arm_nofpu make" Now it works. Thanks, Nyan -----Original Message----- From: gum...@li... [mailto:gum...@li...] On Behalf Of gum...@li...

A patch is available here: =20 http://www.nabble.com/texinfo---makeinfo-4.11-breaks-buildroot-tf4599410 .html#a13166180 This issue is fixed in the head.

Message-ID: <142...@ta...> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=3Dus-ascii Hi all, Is it possible to access the two Robostix UARTs from the Gumstix (basix 400xm)? Alternatively, could a TTL device be connected to the I2C port on the Robostix and accessed through the Gumstix? Seeing as I have the Robostix and Gumstix communcating through I2C, I would assume some sort of master-slave driver would be required on the gumstix-robostix respectively. Ultimately I am trying to drive several character LCDs through a simple serial interface.

Did you add pullup resistors (4.7k or 10k should be fine) to the SDA and SCL lines?

You could access the UARTS in an output fashion by using direct register manipulation. To initialize the UART on the robostix, you need to configure the baud rate register. Lets say, that we'll use 38400 baud. The clock is 16 MHz, so we need (16000000 / 8 / 38400 ) - 1 =3D 51 i2c-io 0x0b writereg UBRR0H 0 i2c-io 0x0b writereg UBRR0H 51 i2c-io 0x0b writereg UCSR0A 0x02 i2c-io 0x0b writereg UCSR0B 0x18 i2c-io 0x0b writereg UCSR0C 0x06 And then you can write characters using: i2c-io 0x0b writereg UDR 0x54 i2c-io 0x0b writereg UDR 0x65 i2c-io 0x0b writereg UDR 0x73 i2c-io 0x0b writereg UDR 0x74 i2c-io 0x0b writereg UDR 0x0d i2c-io 0x0b writereg UDR 0x0a I'm assuming that the overhead involved means that you don't have to check to see if the character actually left the UART shift registers. --=20 Dave Hylands Vancouver, BC, Canada http://www.DaveHylands.com/ ------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
