Matrix-Gui-2.0 (tisdk) without Ethernet Support?

Hi,

i try to build a minimal System on the am335x EVM without Ethernet support. So i build a Kernel without Network support and flushed it to NAND. But the Matrix-Gui-2.0 need the Ethernet Support to display the localhost. Is there any Way to display the Matrix on the touchscreen with deactivated Network driver?

thanks and regards,

Al

    Hello,

    If you disabled networking entirely within your kernel then it will be non trivial to get Matrix to work. Matrix uses the locally running lighttpd webserver to get the content it displays which is generated using PHP within the webserver, and this of course is all done through TCP over localhost. The actual Matrix application itself is basically just a stripped down web browser. The best solution I could see would be to capture the pages served from the lighttpd server and then modify the Matrix browser to read these static pages from locally saved copies.

    Regards,
