ARM OMAP3 Beagleboard port

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.
