Hello,
I'm on pidora, I should like to compile the kernel with the driver of the wolfson audio card but I don't find the patch for the kernel 3.12, I finded just for the 3.10.
Anybody knows where they are ?

Thank you,
Netherless I see it is the entire kernel source in the git repo with the driver of wolfson and probably many else stuff.
I would like to have just a patch to add to the kernel source that i have already mainly I'm not used with git.
Hi Noel,
I used the instructions here: https://blog.georgmill.de/2014/04/29/compile-wolfson-audio-card-driver-for-kernel-3-12-y-a-new-try/
Hope this helps.
Can someone please explain this step in the "3.12.y A New Try" instructions:
"and copy to root of the Raspberry Pi".....
Copy which files/folders? And how exactly?
Many thanks.
@ a d :
when you extract the sentence from the context this makes no sense.
the fully intructions of 3.12.y A New Try are :
mkdir kernelAndFirmware_wolfson_r
tar -xvjf kernelAndFirmware_wolfson_rt.tar.bz2 -C kernelAndFirmware_wolfson_rt
and copy to root of the Raspberry pi.
So I guess , you extract with tar command the files/folders in the dir KernelAndFirmware_wolson_rt , then you need to copy these extracted files/folder in root directory
so the command recursive copy is : cp -r (source) (destination) ; then you take all the files in wolfsonAnd... dir (the source) : WolsonAnd.../* ; then you say the root dir : / (the destination) .At the end you have this command to type :
# cp -r KernelAndFirmware_wolson_rt/* / ;
Sorry everyone, I should expand; - I did it "the hard way" (instructions at the bottom) by compiling the entire kernel etc.
I needed to do this because I also had a non-standard wifi USB dongle that needed drivers compiled.
It takes longer (14 hours) but it does work.

Good news.
I'm going to try too.
Hello everybody,
I also try to compile the wolfson audio card for the kernel 3.12. I have a question about the instructions above. Is: sudo cp -r KernelAndFirmware_wolson_rt/* / the right command to copy the datas into the root-register? Where exactly can I find the command kernel=kernel.img in the /boot/config.txt. It's very urgent for my project. I hope someone can help me! Sorry I'm a beginner;)
