General Comments

You will most likely need kernel version 2.6.20 or higher

This procedure works on Debian GNU/Linux as well.

Debian GNU/Linux and Ubuntu Feisty 7.0.4

To prepare your environment run the following:

sudo apt-get install linux-source linux-headers-`uname -r`

Create and enter working dir (e.g. ~/gadgetfs)

mkdir $WD
cd $WD

Uncompress /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.##.tar.gz (or .bz2)

tar xf /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.##.tar.gz

Then run the following:

mkdir usb_module_dir
cd usb_module_dir
cp -r /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.##/drivers/usb/* .
cd gadget
echo "KDIR := /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build" >> Makefile
echo "PWD := `pwd`" >> Makefile
echo "obj-m := dummy_hcd.o gadgetfs.o" >> Makefile
echo "default: " >> Makefile
echo -e "\t\$(MAKE) -C \$(KDIR) SUBDIRS=\$(PWD) modules" >> Makefile
make

If everything went fine you will find dummy_hcd.ko and gadgetfs.o along with other files in the current directory. Load the modules whenever you need them by issuing

sudo insmod ./dummcy_hcd.ko
sudo insmod ./gadgetfs.ko

General Comments

You will most likely need kernel version 2.6.20 or higher

This procedure works on Debian GNU/Linux as well.

Debian GNU/Linux and Ubuntu Feisty 7.0.4

To prepare your environment run the following:

sudo apt-get install linux-source linux-headers-`uname -r`

Create and enter working dir (e.g. ~/gadgetfs)

mkdir $WD
cd $WD

Uncompress /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.##.tar.gz (or .bz2)

tar xf /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.##.tar.gz

Then run the following:

mkdir usb_module_dir
cd usb_module_dir
cp -r /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.##/drivers/usb/* .
cd gadget
echo "KDIR := /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build" >> Makefile
echo "PWD := `pwd`" >> Makefile
echo "obj-m := dummy_hcd.o gadgetfs.o" >> Makefile
echo "default: " >> Makefile
echo -e "\t\$(MAKE) -C \$(KDIR) SUBDIRS=\$(PWD) modules" >> Makefile
make

If everything went fine you will find dummy_hcd.ko and gadgetfs.o along with other files in the current directory. Load the modules whenever you need them by issuing

sudo insmod ./dummcy_hcd.ko
sudo insmod ./gadgetfs.ko
