DTC Issues - Ubuntu

Post by chuckm »

Trying to use the tutorials figure out converting my BBB into a Stratum-1 time server with my new adafruit GPS module and protoboard.

The ubuntu and kernel.org versions of dtc (the device tree compiler) don't have the -@ option and they don't seem to work with the example scripts. So I've been looking for the source to the Angstrom version of dtc to back port the changes into Ubuntu, but can't find it. A pointer would be appreciated.

Just to follow though here since more information is always helpful. Robert Nelson created a script that will will port the Angstrom dtc to Ubuntu.

You can fetch the script thusly :

Code: Select all

wget -c https://raw.github.com/RobertCNelson/tools/master/pkgs/dtc.sh 
chmod +x dtc.sh 
./dtc.sh 
Works great, /usr/local/bin/dtc will now compile /plugin/; dts files and accept the -@ option.
