bluebrother:
Your compiler might be outdated -- you need at least 4.0.3 for the Sansa. Run arm-elf-gcc --version to get the version number displayed. If not try a "make clean" first.

Good advice! ;) :D

I have version 4.0.3, the output to 'arm-elf-gcc --version' is

I don't understand what you say about the patch... There's a "Flyspray #" button on the left, but I need some input. I tried 'rockboy' with no luck, and then went to 'patches' in 'Tracker' and searched for 'rockboy' again. It showed up 4 entries, but dated 2006. I'm not sure either what I'm looking for... :P
With the 'svn' command what I did was downloading the lastest source from CVS? And now patches should fix some errors in it? Sorry for all these questions, but I'm a noob... :)
Thanks!

007quick:
No problem!
Its just bringing my total posts up! ;)
but anyways. Are you just trying to get rockboy to work?
I don't know the state that the sansa is in but it sounds like it was trying to compile it so assuming that it is in working condition, you need a rom file from various websites of a game. Say pokemon yellow or whatever you want. then you just click it from the file browser in rockbox. Ok so I just checked and yes sansa has rockboy already. you just need to click on a rom file.

neoAKiRAz:
Hi! :)
No, I'm not trying to make rockboy work :P I'll resume:
As from yesterday, develpers got audio working in Sansa. So I downloaded the lastest 'rockbox.zip' (with .rockbox folder and rockbox.e200 file) (that would be the lastest "already built" firmware for sansa?) and made it work with dual boot in my Sansa.
Now I'm interested in start developing something for rockbox, and I started with plugins. Based on an old version of a SNAKE C program for SDL which I wrote a couple of years ago I re-wrote a .C using the plugin API for rockbox. Now I just want to try to compile it (and fix possible errors), and then try it in my Sansa.
And for that I understood I have to compile the whole rockbox code with the addition of my plugin (is not enough (or just can't be done) to compile a my_plugin.rock file and just add it to the 'plugins' folder in my Sansa) so I'm trying, first, to compile the downloaded rockbox source alone. And then, in some way I still don't know about, add my plugin for the 'make' to compile it as well...
I hope I explained myself :P Thanks for all the help!
