ARM OMAP3 Beagleboard port

Post by sweetlilmre » Wed Sep 24, 2008 3:08 pm

Hi,

I am attempting to compile /port LinuxSampler onto the BeagleBoard (http://beagleboard.org).
So far I have all dependencies compiled, and have now run into the RTMathBase::CreateTimeStamp() platform specific stuff.

Has any work been done on an ARM port before? Or does anyone have any pointers as to how I could go about implementing this functionality for ARM?

Thanks

Hi,

I have managed to get QSampler and all deps (libgig, liblscp and linuxsampler) compiled and packaged for the BeagleBoard.
To fix the RTMath issue I used an non optimal gettimeofday call for microsecond resolution.
I have yet to test this and will see if anyone in the BeagleBoard community can assist.

Hopefully the 'poor man's hardware sampler' project will still come to fruition! :)

Will do.

Its still going to be a while before I can really test (there are sound issues with the kernel that are being resolved and I am off work with the 'flu at the mo!)
I also need to get a Linux friendly USB<->Midi adapter, the drivers built for it etc.
So a long haul, but I am up for it :)

Most USB-MIDI adapters are (or should be) class compatible and work without any special driver for the device. All my USB interfaces/controlers (Roland/Edirol UM-1, ESI MIDI Mate and M-AUDIO Axiom) work without problem with the same basic class compatible driver.

Hi,

Thanks for the info! I'll pop off to the local music store tomorrow and see if I can find one.
