open a console, find the folder ../tuxbox-cvs/cdk and make neutrino

Something like 'No rule, in order to provide "neutrinos". Conclusion'

How exactly does this work? I have 1 modified file, do I use the diff file somewhere? I edited the file in tuxbox/tuxbox-cvs/apps/tuxbox/neutrino/src/gui

I was under the impression that you make the neutrino from the diff file, is that not correct?

[Tommy]

please use the manual on Barf's (Bengt Martensson) page step by step. There is described that u have run "configure" first with the needed parameters.

[ozbodd]

@Tommy thanks, but a little more help please? There is a lot of info on that page; > 90% I don't understand. Can you direct me to the relevent section. Understand I have no previous experience in this and am very new to Linux in general....



Before I try it is this the commands?? Do I have to unconfigure? it when to continue with more edits????

http://www.bengt-martensson.de/dbox2/fl ... onfiguring

I see the stuff about autogen, do I just use those typical switches for configure, and do I need to do the compiling section before I do the incremental build guide?

[Tommy]

In my opinion Barf's guide describes all what u need. If u cannot follow this manual I only can recommend again yBuild from Yjogol http://www.yjogol.com/index.php?option= ... &Itemid=83
This "assistant" u simply have to configure with your pathes. There you can start each buildprocess from menu. Also patching is semi-automatic.

[ozbodd]

Maybe for anyone who knows what thhey are doing Useless for me - I don't understand the principles of what is happening.

Can't I just produce diffs and ask a guru to make the neutrinos? Esp if they have all this configured and understood.

Haven't heard of yBuild b4 I don't think

Some of those instructions may as well be in German!

I am not planning on becomming a code guru, just want to commit a few small mods to movieplayer (I have some others in mind) and am finding all this too much bother really just to get something to see if it even works.

I do appreciate the help though.

[Houdini]

building a complete image with newmake takes 3 commands,
that shoudn't be a big problem or?
The configure call is one of them
no need to unconfigure anything

[ozbodd]

OK I get that it is simple but what are the three commands, in order, with switches - I cannot figure this out - I am not making new images, I just want a neutrino mod only.

So my questions are:

What are the commands - in sequence - to mke a neutrino
Where do I run them from? ..../cdk?
Where will I find the neutrino file when ?

OH BTW being as I have never, ever coded in C++ before two weeks ago I think I have self-helped - So much so i am getting a headache

[PT-1]

Have a look on Barfs site or in my Helpfile as this has been explained 1000 of times before

[ozbodd]

Simple hey? Jesus!

PT I have looked and I don't get it .... I have made that clear. There is plenty that I do get and researched myself, I am not just seeking an easy option here.

A quote from Bengt

for the reader for which most of this is gibberish, hmm, it may be wiser to stay with ready-made images.

So is that it then I don't get to offer what I do know....

I know the three commands just don't know what switches to use or why

[Houdini]

Well, you have to use 4 commands

Checking out the sources

The Tuxbox sources is distributed through the Tuxbox CVS server. Regular source releases are presently neither made, nor planned. For our purposes, the source are "checked out" (= copied to your local disk) anonymously by first creating an empty directory, say /tuxbox/head, at a (local) disk with "lots" of free space, cd-ing to it, and issuing the command


cvs -d anoncvs@cvs.tuxbox-cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvs/tuxbox -z3 co -f -r newmake -P .


Note the period at the end of the previous line! This command checks out the newmake files, and for the cases where no newmake version is available, the HEAD version.

In HEAD, there are two files cdk/root/etc/init.d/rcS and root/etc/init.d/rcS.insmod. In newmake, these are instead products, which are generated from its source root/etc/init.d/rcS.m4. It is therefore advisable to delete cdk/root/etc/init.d/rcS and cdk/root/etc/init.d/rcS.insmod, just to be on the safe side.

At this point, it may be desirable to apply some source patches to the sources. If you are compiling for the first time, it is advisable not to apply patches. If problems occur, it is much easier (both technically and socially) to help someone who is using the "unmodified CVS sources".
Configuring

Next some intermediate files are generated. Change to the cdk subdirectory, and issue the command

./autogen.sh

(with no arguments). This creates, among other things, a shell script called configure. This script is executed, given a number of options, to set up the system for building an image/a yadd according to the users wishes. For a complete list of options, use the command ./configure --help. This guide will only describe a typical use, and some other options the author happens to consider useful. The spirit of the configuration options are like in typical GNU tools. A typical use, compatible with the selection above, may be

./configure --prefix=/tuxbox --with-cvsdir=/tuxbox/head --enable-maintainer-mode

The --with-cvs-dir states where the sources are located (should have a subdirectory cdk), while the --prefix states that a number of important directories are to be created as subdirectories of said directory. Their location can be further influenced by some other configuration options, ./configure --help produces the full list. --enable-maintainer-mode is practical, also for not-maintainers, since it enables the created Makefiles to be automatically rebuild when the need arise (for example after some software updates).

There are other useful options available; some are being discussed below.

Please examine the output of autogen for errors and warnings. The warning

/usr/local/share/aclocal/pkg.m4:5: warning: underquoted definition of PKG_CHECK_MODULES

from autogen.sh can be ignored, as well as these warnings from configure:

configure: WARNING: using tuxbox mklibs
checking for mkcramfs... no
configure: WARNING: using tuxbox cramfs
checking for mkjffs2... no
checking for mkfs.jffs2... no
configure: WARNING: using tuxbox mkfs.jffs2
checking for mksquashfs... no
configure: WARNING: using tuxbox squashfs

Note
The reader comparing this document to similar descriptions from "the dark ages" have noted, that the option --with-targetruleset=[standard,flash] is no longer used. During "the dark ages" it was necessary to, during configuration time, restrict yourself to building either yadds, or images. In newmake this is no longer necessary.
Warning
Do not try to build as root!
Compiling

The high-level make targets relevant for building (full) images are: flash-[neutrino,enigma,all]-[cramfs,squashfs,jffs2,all]-[1x,2x,all]. For YADD-builds, these are: yadd-[neutrino,enigma,all]. For example, the command

make flash-neutrino-jffs2-all yadd-enigma

[ozbodd]

Thank you I do have the CVS and am working in a pre-built Dbox VM appliance-

Is that also for just a patch file (neutrino) That seeems to be for an entire image - I don't get the difference.
I have seen this (similar with different switches for config )

Just to explain I have seen diffs posted on this forum and then someone makes them into neutrino patches - that is what I want to do

What happened Do I have a neutrino somewhere ...

[seife]

you need to call ./configure --... from the cdk/ directory, not the one above cdk.

I did didn't I??

Come you guys someone just make a neutrino - I am going to forget what on earth i did in the code before I even get to test it..... Eventually I might get this but for now let me code...

Come you guys someone just make a neutrino

and then every hour a new version if you have modified the code again? I have a family and other hobbies too

learn it or leave it

[ozbodd]

LOL I appreciate that - The guides assume too much previous knowledge and understanding fro me.

I have had a response on my other forum which is a little clearer so will persist. Believe me I will be happy when I understand how...

I do - I was just struggling to understand the basics - There are several variants of that config line switches and I did not know which or what the impllications of running the wrong one.

I have it sorted now thanks, with some patient help from WOD forum and I am progressing and testing the code.

I currently have success with a random and unique play of a TS folder. It is currently hard coded in and needs an option moving to the conf file. I am also looking at possibly changing the folder select (When multi-select) from the OK button to RC Input Blue or something, if I can.

Sorry for messing you guys a bit, just a slow learner I guess ...

The code for your interest ...

I have run ./autogen and ./configure with parameters and then make and been making changes and testing the patches just fine.

Can I edit any files within the tree tuxbox_cvs/ without needing to ./autogen and .configure again? Or are there areas within the tree that require re-compiling?
For example I am editing movieplayer.cpp, filebrowser.cpp, filebrowser.h, locals.h, english.locale and then just running make neutrino

[Houdini]

Can I edit any files within the tree tuxbox_cvs/ without needing to ./autogen and .configure again?

yes, you only have to reconfigure the buildsystem if the buildsystem itself has changed or new or updated packages have been included

[ozbodd]

@Houdini thanks

OK Here is where I am at.

movieplayer.cpp, when multi-select is true, is playng random and unique files from the playlist correctly.

What remains is to set the varialble 'allow_random' somewhere in the menus. I am proposing using the RC input DBox button in the filebrowser to toggle Shuffle on and off (like the filter RC Blue option)

I am having problems with the next step... I am trying to declare some new variables within the locals.h, filebrowser.h and english.locals. When I do and I make the patch I am finding the DBox menu corrupts (large fonts and some missing items) I cannot see how these changes have caused this - Please take a look at the three diffs

Any ideas?
I am uploading neutrino to /tmp and restarting it.
Perhaps I have to kill and restart some other file as well as neutrino??
Or will this require a compllete image flash to test - Trying to avoid this...

[Tommy]

as usual: if u test a second neutrino u have to kill start_neutrino and THEN neutrino. Otherwise the box shutting down (OR the normal neutrino start again and again) with killing neutrino
