Re: How to use syslink while the video driver is active?

C6A816x_AM389x_EZ_Software_Developers_Guide.pdf, pg. 5:

The SysLink comes with a few sample applications. In general, to run any of the syslink samples, you will need to prepare the system first by removing the video and 3d graphics drivers. These are removed by running the following commands

target # /etc/init.d/pvr-init stop

In case, the matrix application is running, please ensure that you exit it either by clicking on the icon on the GUI or by running the following command

target # /etc/init.d/matrix-gui-e stop

Now, bring down the video display by running the following command

target # /etc/init.d/load-firmware.sh stop

The system is now ready to run syslink samples. To run one of the sample application such as "MessageQ" use the below set of commands....

If I don't stop the driver, then the samples fail to run. So, I'd like to know what is required to do both.

Best regards,
