usbcore module

[Kurvivor]

Hello
I need following modules on my system:
usbcore, usbserial
While usbserial was successfully installed with tce-ab, i did not find usbcore there.
I have been checking it with `lsmod | grep usbcore`.

The system i am working on is (uname output):

Linux box 3.16.6-tinycore #777 SMP (...) i686 GNU/Linux

P.S. I need those modules to build a driver for usb-rs232/422/485 conversion device (moxa uport 1150).
In general, what do i need besides build toolss and kernel sources?

You did not specify TC version nor architecture Expect answer quality matching quality of the question.

Understood. I have added that information to question.
P.S. linux-kernel-sources-env.sh fails to execute correctly, sadly. tar fails to unpack sources archive

while I see this is an extra problem you've run into, let me check see why the script is no longer working as it used too..

Code: [Select]

+ wget -s -T 20 http://tinycorelinux.net/index.html
+ busybox wget -s -T 20 http://tinycorelinux.net/index.html
Connecting to tinycorelinux.net (89.22.99.37:80)
+ echo connection ok
connection ok
+ echo downloading linux-3.16.6-patched.txz

wget: server returned error: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
+ [ ! -f /tmp/linux-3.16.6-patched.txz ]
+ echo download error
download error
+ sleep 3


maybe I need to update my copy..?  because the installed version I just checked has wrong or old address..

I'm wondering if usbcore isn't compiled into the kernel rather than as a separate module (there are so many usb kernel config entries that it is difficult to tell)?

Note that you can prepare the kernel sources manually rather than use linux-kernel-sources-env.sh

That should be ..6.x/x86... no?

why the script is no longer working as it used to

In my case, it seems, corupted downloaded archive is to blame. Something is downloaded, but tar fails to extract from it.
If i understand correctly, replacing sources archive in /tmp with download from some other mirror (ibiblio for example) would b enough

[Juanito]

If you "make modules" on the tinycore kernel source, it will create a file "modules.builtin", which contains "usbcore"

[coreplayer2]

+ wget http://www.tinycorelinux.net/5.x/x86/release/src/kernel/linux-3.16.6-patched.txz

That should be ..6.x/x86... no?

Disregard, was testing an old version..   The current version of linux-kernel-sources-env.tcz has previously been updated and works fine
