Guest the_corvus Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Hi all. I make a new kernel based in Buzz Vega, but with some changes. 1) All modules (but wifi) are now integrated into kernel, so no more insmod modules. 2) Added support for PL2303 and FDTI usb to serial chips (Usb Gps, usb-serial cable, etc.) 3) Added support for Xbox 360 PAD (wired or wireless with pc adaptor) Notes: 1) To boot in host mode, press on, once you have black iluminated, release on button and press back until boot finished. 2) Usb Gps and Xbox pad are detected by kernel but not useable in android by now. I'm working on it. 3) To mount CIFS shares, you can use Mount Manager or Cifs Manager from market 4) To use NTFS (and possibly EXT4) you must mount manually. I'm working in do it automatically. Using ConnectBot: $su #busybox mount /dev/block/sda1 /mnt/usbdisk And you get yout memory at /mnt/usbdisk and can access it with any file manager. INSTALL: This must be installed using CWM, and use this zip as update. MAKE ALLWAYS A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE If you was using Buzz Vega, can delete .ko files from /system/lib/modules, because they are not used (now integrated into kernel). http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13580211/corvusKernel_01.zip Thanks Buzz, Paul "Modaco", Koush, and all great helping people at #tegratab. Corvus. PS: If you prefer speak spanish with me, please PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sir Gash Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 (edited) 3) Added support for Xbox 360 PAD (wired or wireless with pc adaptor) For real? I didn't think this was possible, will definitely give it a go when I get home just for this! P.S. ¡Muchas Gracias!

Guest newbe5 Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 3) Added support for Xbox 360 PAD (wired or wireless with pc adaptor) OK I need someone to let me know if this works, because if it does this is officially EPIC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rilot Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 See his post: 2) Usb Gps and Xbox pad are detected by kernel but not useable in android by now. I'm working on it. So no, it doesn't work in any practical sense yet. Awesome development none the less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest the_corvus Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 I have a patch for ntfs automounting, so it's working now... Tomorrow i will release it with xbox pad support... if i can make it work. Corvus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rilot Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 (edited) Tomorrow i will release it with xbox pad support... if i can make it work. Awesome. Good luck and fingers crossed for all Vega gamers. This could be huge if you can get it to work. Edited March 15, 2011 by rilot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest newbe5 Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Awesome. Good luck and fingers crossed for all Vega gamers. This could be huge if you can get it to work. Not just gamers. You can get a Keyboard attachment for the Xbox pad, it would make an extremely good universal remote if it worked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest seryoferben Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Great work! I can't wait to see the xbox pad working on my POV :( Greetings! :D P.D.: Gran trabajo Corvus! :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sjt.a3b Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 3) Added support for Xbox 360 PAD (wired or wireless with pc adaptor) can you use a wireless pad with the plug and charge adaptor? to make it not wireless, if that makes sense.

Guest andrewdolphin Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 can you use a wireless pad with the plug and charge adaptor? to make it not wireless, if that makes sense. To use wireless on the PC you need one of these so assuming it's the same with linux and therefore android.... http://www.play.com/Games/PC/4-/13027917/M...urlrefer=search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To use the controller on the PC you need the wireless dongle thing that he linked above, as he said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest simonta Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 (edited) OK, I cleaned up the mess :D Corvus, first of all, thank you for your cracking work. I know I'm going to regret this, but what's the .32 in your feature list? Having all modules in the kernel is the dogs danglies. Any reason that WiFi isn't in or can't be put in? Reason for asking is that if the kernel were self contained, buggering around with ROMs from other devices becomes trivial. I know that I can replace the boot.img but to date, matching someones elses system.img with a Vega kernel has been a tearful experience. Thanks again, already loving your work...

Guest Buzing Bee Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Android depends on the wifi being a module so thats the one module that canot be put into the kernel :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest simonta Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Thanks Buzing Bee (love your work too chap and competition is a good thing). I'm going to take a crack at this with an Eden ROM, see what can be done. If I zap the KOs from the system and use the Vega boot.img, repacked with tihs kernel just leaves Wifi to get going. Or have I just departed on the last bus from sanity land? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest the_corvus Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 I know I'm going to regret this, but what's the .32 in your feature list? .32 is for 2.6.32.32... kernel version. Corvus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest lydius Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 CODE $su #busybox mount /dev/block/sda1 /mnt/usbdisk And you get yout memory at /mnt/usbdisk and can access it with any file manager. i'm sorry but i can only access the NTFS usb disk by connectbot, ie. linux ls and cp commands. any file managers reports usbdisk folder as empty. also tried the automount mod, but no success. i even used chmod to give usbdisk all permisions. any idea?

Guest beegee1962 Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Does this kernel support tethering through WiFi? I change to a Viewsonic Viewpad with 3G :D and tried Android Tether application, but it says that the kernel is not fully supporting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
