Cantable clone fw
riodda opened this issue · 8 comments
Hi i've made a canable clone and i've tryed to flash both the binaries avilable but i have no usb device showing up nor any led activity, i guess that the problem is that canable has StM32F04 with internal oscillator, while candlelight board has F07 internal oscillator and cantact has F04 external oscillator, i guess in the makefile there is the need of a new board definition ? Sorry i'm not very much into making firmwares.
Thanks.
sorry for answering so late, I have overlooked your issue until now.
also, I thought that the canable would have the same microcontroller as the cantact.
anyway, I can get hold of a canable, so I will take a look at it as soon as I can, probaby this week.
Thanks, Much apreciated.
@riodda Did nexulm's fork build/start correctly for you?
An alternative possibility may be a GCC issue. I've found that nexulm's fork (which has additional patches for canable not in this repo) behaves exactly as you describe if built using the gcc-arm-none-eabi present in Ubuntu 18.04 or the team-gcc-arm PPA, but works fine if built on an ubuntu 16.04 machine.
I haven't tried this specific repo.
It's long time i don't work on this, but it's a good clue i will try to make one board building with a 16.04 and see if it solvers the problem.
Cheers.
@riodda Did you have any luck with 16.04? If so it would be interesting to know what distro @HubertD and @normaldotcom use when building.
(I figure it's time to get back to cleaning up my patches to handle alternative host endianness, but it would be nice to figure out why I can only get functional builds on very old Ubuntu releases.)
Sorry i haven't got the chance to test it, that project is a bit on hold.
Cheers.
The build system has changed quite a bit since this was opened, is this still an issue ? Otherwise will close in a few weeks.
Feel free to retest current firmware, and open issues as necessary.
