link script problem rvl.ld
I am trying to compile a program that is basically a nand loader used as preloader in wii channels. Something seems to be wrong in the rvl.ld file, so it doesn't compile with the latest toolchain.

Re: USB Devices
I am a newby in the wii scene. I was under the impression that all the hardware interfacing was done by the wii arm processor. The firmware for this is one of the wii ios. Homebrew code runs on the ppc processor. The interfacing with the ios is handled by the libs like libogc. I don't know if there ...

Re: USB Devices
I don't know how mature linux for wii is for the moment. If there is full usb support, it might be a good way to do things. It's just moderate complex to make a network link between the Wii and another network enabled device. You could use your pc as a sort of bridge to start with. If you have ...

Re: USB Devices
USB client devices are divided in classes. You have the HID class that handles input devices like mice and keyboards. You have the Storage class that handles usb disks and usb memory devices.

Re: devkitppc revisions
You are the best. It compiles without issues after it's patched. I created a document (mostly for my own purpose) describing all the steps that needs to be taken. (It's not much more than all the steps you gave on this forum, combined with a few tips I find usefull since I am not very familiar with ...

Re: devkitppc revisions
Sorry, my mistake, I did mean the main.cpp in the backends\platform\wii folder. I am using the scummvm trunk. Some of the libraries come from a packaged proposed in the how to compile wiki for wii. I didn't recompile those myself, so they might be from an older toolchain. I believe it are the ...

Re: devkitppc revisions
First of all, many thanks for looking into this. I managed to compile the sources, but the resulting dol isn't running. It gives a dsi exception screen. I tried to locate the origin of it using gdb, but it doesn't give any usefull information. It says the error is in the show_console function of ...

I am trying to compile scummvm, which is still based on the revision 16 toolchain. I tried to locate that older toolchain, but in sourceforge, I can only locate the older revisions ...
