Where are those to be downloaded? I didn't think that could be an issue, and since libasound and mpg123 compiled just fine I didn't look further...
Thanks again! |
Duh...
You got me.
Will have to do a bit of research on how to do this with only a cross toolchain.
Meanwhile, ever use scratchbox2?
Neither have I, but it seems to be the popular cross-compile engine these days, and:
apt-cache search scratchbox
Yup - it is there
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install scratchbox2 (and maybe some of the related packages)
Although I would have to start off at ground zero researching how to use it.
Other devs here do use scratchbox2 - so we may get some help.
Your other question -
(after you either get a cross-environment or at least build up a chroot where things like the kernel headers for some other version can be installed)
There is a sticky here that lists links to the Amazon source bundles -
Grab yourself a copy matching your device.
We can worry about building it for the armv6l (and older kernel versions) after we get it working for your hardware.
