Has anyone compiled a joydev.ko with the ICS kernel, so we can use more USB joysticks?
I needed support for my Logitech Rumblepad. I solved the problem by compiling several additional kernel modules:

Hi everyone!
I have a rooted Galaxy S2 i9100 with ICS 4.0.3
Kernel version is 3.0.31-Siyah-s2-v5.0.1+
I just bought a USB-ethernet adapter, and I'm trying to make it work with my i9100.
The chipset on the adapter is a MCS7830, and I found the drivers for Linux kernel 3.x here:
( asix.com.tw / FrootAttach / driver / MCS783x_Linux_driver_v1.11.zip ) - sorry, I can't post links yet.
When I plug the adapter, the android recognizes it, but it doesn't generate an eth0 nor an usb0 connection on netcfg.
I've found on other threads that it could be a driver fault, and a possible solution would be to build these drivers as a kernel module. Is it possible? I'm trying to build a .ko module for it, but I still can't even handle the "hello_world.ko". I'd really appreciate and be thankful if someone could build a .ko for this driver.
Thank you in advance!
Any ideas?
Just to let you guys know, I just did it. I'll try to post a tutorial as soon as possible to help people that might have faced the same issues with similar dongles.
I recompiled the needed drivers as modules ("make modules") with the ARM compiler that comes with the Android NDK;
Set up the .config and Makefile from SiyahKernel 5.0.1+ with some values;
Pushed the modules to my phone and loaded manually the modules.
Siyah Kernel actually has many drivers (including other usb-ethernet chipsets)! Learning how to compile specific drivers as modules might be useful for many people.
nice to know that there is someone how found a solution. please post a detailed tutorial! I am desperately trying to get this work for 3 weeks now, without success. i ordered different usb-ethernet-adapters from amazon, i have just 5 days left to send them all back...
a tutorial would be very helpful! btw: does your solution only work with the siyah-kernel or with every kernel on a rooted phone?
thanx in advance, alex

https://github.com/amery/linux-sunxi/tree/import/lichee-3.3/a31-dev
But I´m not quit sure what tools to install under Ubuntu to compile it? I treid to use several guides but all of them seems to be outdated?
Thanks for help
Would also like some information on this. I am wanting to compile xpad.ko for my allwinner a10 device. I want the latest xpad that has support for 3rd party controllers such as my Razer TE, but working for my kernel version. Or information as to how to update my current xpad.ko with vid and pid of this controller. If I get this figured out I will post back to help others.
Hi,
I tested http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2531189 and it work's wery well.
Can anyone guide me to recompile kernel to add video4linux driver on @munjeni's kernel? It help me to use an external usb webcam on my phone.
I compiled from https://github.com/munjeni/android_kernel_xperiago but i think i missed something and the phone doesn't boot.
Thanks a lot
Since xiaomi released the source code for redmi 3's kernel, we can make a custom kernel. If possible, i need help making a kernel that supports HID USB Keyboard & Mouse support.
Here is the link to the person teaching how to make a kernel that supports HID USB keyboard:
github.com/pelya/android-keyboard-gadget
I've never had any experience making or modifying kernels. So any help would be appreciated.
Also i found a thread teaching how to make a kernel from source, but i am too inexperienced to extract useful info:
en.miui.com/thread-293285-1-1.html
Any kind of help is appreciated.:fingers-crossed:
Hi, just a quick question. Would it be possible to add kernel support for ath9k devices (namely tl-wn722n) to surnia's kernel? I've seen people being successful with it on another devices. If it is indeed possible, how to do it?
