Hi,

I am from TI DLP Catalog group. I ordered beagleboard-xm couple of weeks back. Can you please point me where to get latest  Angstrom Distribution software. I got Linux Kernel v2.6.35 from one of my friend; but i have problem with enabling the McSPI3 and McSPI4 ports. Searching online material points to Kernel patch and other things; i believe  the latest version don't need any patches to enable the port.

Regards,

Sanjeev

    To enable McSPI3 and McSPI4 you need to set the pinmux so the pins on will have that function (they can have up to 8 functions so you must set one).

    To do so, you can patch the kernel or compile u-boot with the new settings, i think it's easy to compule u-boot so i would tell you to do that.

    Take a look here http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardPinMux#Examples

    Just remember to get the correct information from the DM3730 fatasheet  (the beagleboard datasheet may be wrong)

    That's it.
