(Hopefully) Fixed version of the Hitachi StarBoard kernel driver for Linux (lsadrv)
Patched version of lsadrv with 3.10 and 64-bit fixes.
Work sponsored by Talaria.
Either run those steps manually or as a script (not yet fully tested).
#!/bin/sh -e
# -e stops at first failing command
# Install all the needed 32bit packages for the StarBoard software to run
# libjpeg62 is declared as dependency by the package but not the rest...
sudo apt-get install libjpeg62:i386 libxtst6:i386 libusb-0.1-4:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libfreetype6:i386 libsm6:i386 libglib2.0-0:i386 libxrender1:i386 libfontconfig1:i386 libqtgui4:i386
# Get the official archive and install the .deb package.

sudo dpkg -i StarBoardSoftware_9.42_i586.deb
# This should give a warning:
# "None of the pre-compiled kernel modules seems to be compatible with your operating system."
# Finish the installation by running the script manually.
# It will complain about not being able to build the module.
# It might also complain about the coach module, as this one also needs fixing.
sudo /usr/local/StarBoardSoftware/install.sh
# Now compile and install the fixed driver.
