Hi,RidgeRun just released the first SDK for DM365 Leopard Board!.
The supported Ubuntu versions for this SDK are 9.04 and 9.10 in 32 bits.
It includes the following features:* ARM toolchain: gcc 4.2.4.* u-boot 2009.11 with a set of patches for support the Leopard DM365 (bootloader installation is not supported). * NFS and JFFS2 file systems.* Linux LSP kernel 2.6.18 + Real Time patches. DM365 support for the following drivers: - Sensor MT9T031 for 5MP camera (it still has some issues like the video quality and the frame rate while it is used in Gstreamer).- Video output support: DVI, Component and Composite.- UART - MTD (NAND flash) - V4L2 - Watchdog timer - Real time clock - USB (host and gadget) - Ethernet - I2C- SPI - MMC/SD - AutoFocus (AF)- Auto Exposure/Auto White Balance (AEW)- IPIPEIntegration with some of TI's packages for the DaVinci platforms and Gstreamer, including:DVSDK 2.10.01.18XDCTools 3.15.01.59You should download and install them before build the SDK, the download link is:http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/sdo_sb/targetcontent/dvsdk/DVSDK_2_10/latest/index_FDS.htmlIMPORTANT known issues:* The image quality provided by the driver of the MT9T031 sensor needs to be improved, as well as the framerate when the camera is used in Gstreamer.* The audio codec is not supported yet.* The bootloader installation is not supported, so ***DO NOT*** run "make installbootloader" or your board will get bricked!.You can download the SDK at: www.ridgerun.com

Thanks RidgeRun!
Where can I download this from.. does not seem to be in the DM365 or Leopard download area?
Thanks,
Is (leo365/original/)kernel.uImage the right uImage to Flash in addition to Leopard's default UBL and u-boot?
When loading, it says:
Linux version 2.6.18-ridgerun (root@ninja-desktop) (gcc version 0CPU: ARM926EJ-S [41069265] revision 5 (ARMv5TEJ), cr=00053177Machine: DaVinci DM365 EVMMemory policy: ECC disabled, Data cache writebackDaVinci DM0365 variant 0x8
The reason I'm asking that is because I cannot find Gstreamer! gst-launch is not found
Where is it?

OK I've used TFTP upload and it now works...
A hint for everyone: always check the install.log file in the log directory to check if everything goes well.
I feel a bit silly, but can't find the download link.
Any help would be great!

Hi,

Hello,
How do you transmit the 5MP camera image into the network?
I have launched manually the following commands on the Leopard Board 365:
- loadmodules.sh
- fbset -disable
- ./vpss_daemon 31 & gst-launch v4l2src num-buffers=5 always-copy=false ! video/x-raw-yuv, format=\(fourcc\)UYVY, width=720, height=480, framerate=\(fraction\)1001/30000 ! queue ! dmaiperf ! udpsink host=192.168.1.101 port=5001
While on the other side (on host computer with IP 192.168.1.101), I've launched the following commands:
- sudo gst-launch-0.10 -v udpsrc port=5001 caps="video/x-raw-yuv, format=(fourcc)UYVY, width=(int)720, height=(int)480, framerate=(fraction)1001/30000" ! filesink location=cool1.yuv
But the network does not look very busy and while the host creates the cool1.yuv file, it does not write anything in it...

I have the DM365SDK844703 SDK built, the bootloader, kernel and file system images can are found on the $SDK/images/ directory now. I have the leopardboard 365 with the LI-VM34LP rev 1.1 camera board.
According to the post on the link below, RidgeRun provides a powerful installer for installing the firmware on the target board. Where is the installer? Or how do you install the firmware on the target?

Thanks
Emge
For more information on how to install the firmware on the target, you can take a look at:
wiki.davincidsp.com/.../Installing_RR_free_SDK_for_Leopard_Board
Basically, once you have selected the communication method in the menu shown after you run the "make config" command, and everything was built successfully, you can run the "make install" command, this will run the scripts that will deploy the software into your board.
It is important to remember, that this SDK is based on the uboot that comes with the board, therefore, it doesn't have support to update the uboot, so the "make installbootloader" command should NOT be use, it is not working. Skip step 3 from that link.

Thanks for the reply Christa. I will be using the serial method as I already have that connection working. Once I have installed the RR SDK, is there an application or demo that I can use that will work with the hardware i have, specifically the LeopardBoard 365 with the LI-VM34LP rev 1.1 camera board. ??
I have't find this installed the RR SDK for LeopardBoard 365 ,where are have this file ?
Where can I download SDK_Beta_Release_844703_for_DM365_Leopard_Board.

We removed the beta leo365 SDK as it used the old kernel and old DVSDK. Please use the SVN version with the updated kernel / DVSDK. The updated SDK is much more functional.
