1012 NVIDIA TK1
Contents |
Introduction
This page will guide you in using the Sensoray Model 1012 with NVIDIA tegra k1 development boards.
A modified kernel and driver are required.
The modified kernel can be flashed onto the TK1 from the development PC, installed by the TK1 or the modifications can be made by the TK1 and recompiled.
The driver needs to be modified before being compiled.
Flashing a modified kernel image
Get the modified zImage extlinux.conf and tw6869.ko files for Jetson Tegra K1 and put them in Downloads folder Follow Jetson quick-start guide from NVIDIA
quick-start step 1. Download Linux for Tegra package and sample root file system
$ wget http://developer.download.Jetson.com/embedded/L4T/r23_Release_v1.0/Tegra210_Linux_R23.1.1_armhf.tbz2 $ wget http://developer.download.Jetson.com/embedded/L4T/r23_Release_v1.0/Tegra_Linux_Sample-Root-Filesystem_R23.1.1_armhf.tbz2
quick-start step 2. Untar and assemble the rootfs
$ sudo tar xpf ${RELEASE_NAME}
$ cd Linux_for_Tegra/rootfs/
$ sudo tar xpf ../../Tegra_Linux_Sample-Root-Filesystem_R21.4.0_armhf.tbz2
$ cd ../
Modify the kernel to be flashed
$ sudo cp ~/Downloads/zImage ~Linux_for_Tegra/zImage $ sudo cp ~/Downloads/extlinux.conf ~Linux_for_Tegra/bootloader/ardbeg/jetson-tk1_extlinux.conf.emmc
Get the driver for Sensoray 1012.
$ sudo cp ~/Downloads/tw6869.ko ~/Linux_for_Tegra/rootfs/lib/modules/3.10.40-gdacac96/extra/tw6869.ko
Flash the TK1 (step 3. in Jetson's quick-start guide)
Put your target system into "reset recovery mode" by holding down the RECOVERY button and press RESET button once on the target main board.
Ensure your Linux host system is connected to the target device through the USB cable for flashing.
$ cd ~/Linux_for_Tegra/ $ sudo ./applybinaries.sh $ sudo ./flash.sh jetson-tk1 mmcblk0p1 #This will take less than 10 minutes.
from the TK1 load the Sensoray driver.
$ sudo depmod /lib/modules/3.10.40-gdacac96/extra/tw6869.ko $ sudo insmod /lib/modules/3.10.40-gdacac96/extra/tw6869.ko
Restart with Sensoray 1012 attached
$ sudo reboot
MPlayer is used by the demo
$ sudo apt-add-repository universe $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev zlib1g-dev libxv-dev $ sudo apt-get install mplayer mencoder
Run the demo

Installing a modified kernel from TK1
Get the modified zImage extlinux.conf and TW68-core.c files for nVIDIA Tegra K1 and put them in Downloads folder
Install kernel modifications
$ sudo cp ~/Downloads/zImage ~/boot/zImage $ sudo cp ~/Downloads/extlinux.conf ~/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf

Compiling the kernel modifications
Get the source of the kernel being used.
$ wget http://developer.download.nvidia.com/embedded/L4T/r21_Release_v4.0/source/kernel_src.tbz2 $ tar xf kernel.src.tbz2 $ zcat /proc/config.gz > ~/kernel/.config
