Can anyone compile nls_utf8.ko module for the Retail 10.1?
The Settings -> About tablet tab has the following:
Kernel - 2.6.36.3 se.infra sep-58 #1
Build Number - HMJ37.UEKF3 P7510UEKF3
Don't know if it's important for this module but for cifs.ko was the following:
cifs: version magic should be '2.6.36.3 SMP preempt mod_unload ARMv7 '
Ok, I did it myself. Here is nls_utf8.ko for the retail 10.1. Works for me.
Trying to set this up myself. I've got cifs working but not utf8 support. Your nls_utf8.ko does not seem to work for me. I've got:
Kernel: 2.6.36.3 [email protected] #1
Build number: HMJ37 P7500XWKHD
Do I need to change kernel for this to work or is there another file available for this kernel?
I don't think you need to change your kernel. If you can find the source for it - you can compile the module. The description of how to compile is somewhere on this forum (don't remember where exactly). Though first you should check this module: try mount manager and force loading of modules in it - this helps...
i need utf8 for cifs too, so i tested nls_utf8.ko in this thread but doesn't work for me.
I haven't problem with cifs.ko, it's works always but without utf8 support so,
how do i can test if my kernel able to support utf8?
how do i can know if i can add a module of nls_utf8 or i need recompiling kernel?
thanks in advance

I have searched high and low for a tun.ko module for a rooted Android 3.1 Motorola Xoom.
I have tried to load tun.ko modules from Android 3.0 releases without success.
I am getting "(Exec format error)" errors while using insmod.
Can someone help me here? I want to get OpenVPN working and have been unsuccessful so far.
Thanks,
Eric
I compiled the module for 3.1, you will find it here:

Hi Olli,
I tried this tun.ko for the Galaxy tab 10.1 - 3.1.
I still get "Exec format error". Is that suppose to work on my device?
Thanks a lot.
@yochaizv
Did you read my small info on the website?
Your kernel version *must* match the module version.
Otherwise the kernel refuses to load the module and
you get the format error.
My module was compiled for the Motorola xoom.
It's very likely that your kernel is different.

i cannot find a working tun.ko for my xoom,
uname tells me:
Code:
# busybox uname -a
Linux localhost 2.6.36.3-00010-g3139c20 #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Jul 8 06:11:47 CDT 2011 armv7l GNU/Linux
any help is really appreciate.. i do need openvpn to work.. thank you
noob question what is tun.ko, and wwan?
Hey all,
I got tun.ko compiled for Samsung Galaxy Ace, which is required for using vpn clients.
Its for 2.6.32.9-perf kernel, on FroYo.

depends:
vermagic: 2.6.35.7-perf-CL518855 preempt mod_unload ARMv6
How to install it?
I just should put tun.ko in /lib/modules and reboot the phone ?
you can do "insmod tun.ko" to load it from adb shell (or if you have terminal emulator app installed on your phone).
please...
could somebody make it for Galaxy GIO GingerBread too

Goto the market and download tun.ko Installer. It had a valid one for mine... Do the others work? Im trying to get fuse.ko and one of the mounters to mount mine...

Check out this thread ... I'm using the modules from it successfully in 3.2 and 3.2.1.

Hi,
I really need the cp210x.ko module, but I couldn't successfully build it properly for my Iconia A500 with 3.2.1 and 2.6.36.3+ kernel.. I get the following when I tried insmod my cp210x.ko build using ubuntu cross compiler approach:
cp210x: version magic '2.6.36.3+ preempt mod_unload ARMv5 ' should be '2.6.36.3+ SMP preempt mod_unload ARMv7 '
A little search showed that I need to build it in ARMv7, and need to set the kernel config to build SMP kernel. In this thread I saw a few modules offered but couldn't post reply as a new xda-developers user, so I post here. My A500 has already been rooted via the su (version 3) method posted few days ago.
Please help me build the cp201x.ko module - I am kinda stuck..
Bill
Bill,
Might I suggest you look at loading one of the many custom ROM's that will have what you want? If you are rooted, then install CWM (ACER Recovery from the marketplace) which should allow you to load custom ROM's. In order to load the cp201x.ko module you'd have to recompile the kernel and people doing this type of work normally are building custom ROM's.
Anyway, just my 2¢
Thanks for the advice. I am testing Thor ROM at the moment. Cool..
From what I can read and see within various ROMs /system/lib/modules, very few (out of total possible) kernel modules made it to these custom ROMs - mostly to get game controller to work, extra filesystems, or networking protocols. USB-to-serial modules are rare and certainly my search didn't turn up cp210x.
Cross-compiling the kernel source on Gentoo is mentioned to be better supported then ubuntu, due to its crossdev toolkit, as I'm trying to figure out how to specify target ARMv7 instead of ARMv5 I'm defaulting to when cross compiling from Ubuntu's arm-linux-gnueabi-*
I'm wondering if various nice ROM cooks have releases of their modified kernel source - or might be willing to help me build the just the cp210x as a .ko module, e.g. in the .config, "CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_CP210X=m" - I've found a post few months ago where a successful build and insertion of cp210x module was done but he had some problems when initiating communication on it - I fear the worst but hope for the best, and would like to try that myself as I've successfully talked to my device through the cp210x module on Linux.
Or, if any tips on how to build kernel (just the modules really) properly e.g. As Thor's ROM version number hints at need for some custom and virtualized build environment, I'm looking for the quick and dirty solution if cooking ROMs/kernel/ko's has steep learning curve..
Any help much appreciated!
Bill
It looks like I was speeding down the the wrong track last few days
Apparently the /proc/config.z copied off the a500 device was missing something - and how strange that is - so I had to enable SMP and choose Tegra 2 ARM processor using "make menuconfig" to get the vermagic on the build module (e.g. modinfo after successful make modules) to show ARMv7 and SMP, build from my Ubuntu cross-compiling setup. I haven't tested this new cp210x.ko on a500 yet (as it's currently running one of the customized ROMs that has different EXTRAVERSION/vermagic to the stock Acer kernel source version 2.6.36.3 that I'm based on.
I think it'd be really wonderful if various Android kernel and kernel module makers release their kernel config, sync'ed to each ROM or kernel release, so people like me may independently build special purpose kernel modules with more efficiency and accuracy (to target their customized kernel), and we can recontribute back to to a growing list of tested and working modules for corresponding devices.
Bill
Hmm... Silly. It looks like Thor's ROM already has cp210x build-in, not as a loadable module but compiled in. My device is reported to attach to ttyUSB0! How nice
Thanks!
Bill
For those who are interested, the cp210x.ko module build using latest mentioned approach, e.g. modified kernel config.z, generate module that appear to insert correctly into lightspeed and taboonay roms (neither has this USB-to-serial module) - with a little modification of the EXTRAVERSION variable in the Makefile.

CP210x and GT-P7500
Has anyone got CP210x module working with Samsung Tab GT-P7500? My problem is that the connected USB-device doesn't create node dev/ttyUSB*. I have spent lot of time trying to figure this one out.
I have tried 1) Manually compiling the linux kernel that has cp210x support as a module. After compiling the module I tried insmoding the cp210x.ko to a running kernel, but even though it seemed to load and unload all right, it did not give me the wanted results. It does not create device node /dev/ttyUSB*. I have also tried modifying ueventd.rc for adding this row, but I am guessing it is only relevant for permissions after the node is created.
Also 2) loading cyanogenmod 10 (which should have cp210x support) to tablet but it doesnot create the desired /dev/ttyUSB* node. I can see device file under dev/bus/usb/001/ but the node does not exist.
I am going to try making needed files for building custom kernel and inserting to tablet. However, I have 0 experience on this, I think it can be tough one.
Any help would be welcome, thanks.
I strongly need the linux kernel 2.6.29.REVO used by CM7 SwiftDroid SDSL v2.0. Can anyone tell me where I can down the source?
What I am currently doing is to hack the wireless module of my GT540 phones. So I need the linux kernel source to recompile the module: /system/lib/modules/wireless.ko. I have tried the kernel source from two github repositories.
* One is the swift kernel 2.6.29 authored by Quarx2k
* The other is by wingrime
But when I inserted the compiled wireless.ko, the CM7 SwiftDroid SDSL system throws out the version magic error.
# dmesg
wireless: version magic '2.6.29 preempt mod_unload ARMv6 should be '2.6.29.REVO preempt mo-unload ARMvt'
So I may need the exact linux version 2.6.29.REVO authored by microslav_mm.
Where can I download it? microslav_mm's github only provides 2.6.35 kernel right now.
Any suggestions are extremely appreciated. Already trapped by this kernel compilation issue for a whole week.

there you go
Thanks for this message.
But this webpage seems to contains only the already-built linux kernel and android image.
What I need is the source code of linux kernel 2.6.29.REVO. Any place to download?
Regards
Shawn
I dont know....
I think I saw it once on github :OO
Sign. But I strongly need this kernel source linux kernel source 2.6.29.REVO for wifi driver hacking.
