Compilation error (2 questions)

[Tiago Maluta]

I'm with problems to compile Direct App Launch ACPI driver for Linux.

I pasted the output when I try make.

make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build SUBDIRS=/home/maluta/devel/acpi/quickstart modules
make[1]: Entrando no diretório `/usr/src/linux-2.6.24.1'
scripts/Makefile.build:46: *** CFLAGS was changed in "/home/maluta/devel/acpi/quickstart/Makefile". Fix it to use EXTRA_CFLAGS.  Pare.
make[1]: ** [_module_/home/maluta/devel/acpi/quickstart] Erro 2
make[1]: Saindo do diretório `/usr/src/linux-2.6.24.1'
make: ** [quickstart.ko] Erro 2

I didn't found EXTRA_FLAGS in Makefile.

My other question is in order to compile properly, what flag in kernel config must I set?

Best regards,

Tiago Maluta

On the Makefile you have on line 13:
CFLAGS+=-c -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Os -pipe

just replace that line by:

EXTRA_CFLAGS+=-c -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Os -pipe

You will need CONFIG_ACPI enabled on your kernel.

Thanks for your interest on quickstart,

It's now fixed on version 1.00-r1.

Thanks for reporting,

I obtained success changing CFLAGS to EXTRA_CFLAGS and loading the module (modprobe quickstart).
My kernel (2.6.24.1) has the ACPI settings:

# grep CONFIG_ACPI /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y

But, when I type:

# cat /sys/devices/platform/quickstart/buttons
none

Instead of QBTN,DBTN,MUBN,PIBN,WEBN,LVBN,VOBN... Is quickstart in someway hardware dependent?
I'm using SiS chipset in my motherboard, but I think if the ACPI kernel works, quickstart would work.

I'm trying it just for hobbie, I think its a great idea.

Thanks,

Yes, quickstart relies on a hardware function commonly found on "Vista Capable" computers. In your case your hardware seems to support it (the module loads successfully) but there are no hardware buttons implemented.

Can you send me your ACPI DSDT? I would like to check.

cat /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT | bzip2 > dsdt.bz2
