[okl4-developer] help getting started

[Laborator SRCT]

The source archive on wiki.ok-labs.com is in stable condition.
 

 Can you please try using Skyeye 1.2.3 and see how you go?  We use version  1.2.3, slightly modified for our purposes.  I will try to get a summary of the  changes and see if they are required to get a working simulation on gumstix.  In  the meantime, please try the vanilla version from Sourceforge.

Thank you for your support Nelson. I will try and see what happens with Skyeye 123.

Before I received this email from you I had done some work in order to surpass the errors I found so far.

These were due to the fact that on both Linux OSes I used, the default python versions was above 2.5, and gcc version was >4.

I'm writing below a resume of errors and their immediate fixes.

Error: python2.4 not declared in /usr/env/bin
Fix: Need to install python 2.4 on the OS. I personally used python2.4.4 from python.org. I used the sequence of cmmands: ./configure, make , make altinstall in the python folder. Attention: under Fedora Core and openSUSe the GUI based File Roller has an issue. You have to use tar instead. If not, after dealing with other errors you can get roottask error in the build of OKL4.

Error: build process complains about not finding arm-linux-gcc 
Fix: For this the arm-linux-3.4.4 from the NICTA site needs to be installed. Then the path gcc..../arm-linux/bin needs to be added into $PATH. 
export PATH=$PATH:/nicta/tools/gcc-3.4.4-glibc-2.3.5/arm-linux/bin

Simply copying the executables into /usr/local/bin will result in the build complaining about a cc1plus error (I saw that somebody had a problem with issue before in the mailing list).

Other errors are due to the Skyeye build. Especially errors that complain about little-elf or that end with a set of register values. Me, personally, I haven't been able to do a successful simulation with the Skyeye121n version who's binary is on the NICTA website. I had to build Skyeye 124 by using gcc->4.
