There is a good manual here

yes, it was my starting point.

now, kodi is running with accelerated hardware... but still no sound.

[balbes150]

You need to rebuild your kernel with the sound devices used in these TV-tuners. Odroid in another system. And perform settings.

[Koxx]

that's the problem ... I am not sure about the sound device I should pick for my Minix 1G/8G. For me, it's the "aml_m8" (for hdmi audio)... like on my odroid c1.
But the compilation fails with this driver. I'll try cross-compile.

same for wifi.
It seems to be a AP6212 (broadcom).

here is the error when I compile the kernel

Yes!!!!
alsa now has soundcards
I had to compile those drivers, not as modules, but in the kernel.

odroid@odroid64:~$ cat /proc/asound/cards

[Koxx]

it seems almost good :

here is my /etc/asound.conf


pcm.!default {
type plug
slave {
pcm "hw:0,2"
format S32_LE
}
}

still no sound :/
any idea ?

[Koxx]

my god ... after 5 hours of digging, I found a hack :
su -c 'echo "audio_on" > /sys/class/amhdmitx/amhdmitx0/config'

it enable the sound on HDMI !

kodi is now fully working.
tomorrow : network routing, transmission and openvpn.

[trebor]

Excellent, never give up good to see
Cheers

Kodi is running great.
Now, I am trying to add the 'bcmdhd' drivers & firmware to the kernel ... but I have no clue how to do that.
I just managed to get the firmware from OpenElec distrib.
How can I add this to the kernel build ?

[balbes150]

Try it this way.

copy the directory /lib/firmware/brcm from the latest version Openelec and all its contents in /lib/firmware.
copy the contents of the files /etc/modprobe.d and /etc/modules-load.d into files with the same names.
I'm not sure it will help. We need to see how the 80211 module included in the kernel.

[Koxx]

thanks !
is the bcmdhd module needed ? because it's not in the current odordoic2 kernel :/
I'll try that tomorrow

[balbes150]

Yes, it is about the dhd module

[Koxx]

ok, firmware copied.

for modules, I found this /etc/ after unsquashfs
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 avril 18 19:37 modules-load.d -> /storage/.config/modules-load.d
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 avril 18 19:37 modprobe.d -> /storage/.config/modprobe.d

both are nearly empty. nothing to use in this.

I recompiled the kernel to be sure I'll have :
/lib/modules/3.14.29/kernel/net/wireless/cfg80211.ko

I also copied :
/lib/modules/3.14.29/kernel/drivers/amlogic/wifi/broadcom/bcmdhd_1_201_59_x

I think something is missing since there is nothing to load the module...

here is my dmesg :
