Hi,

We have purchased two khadas vim pro boards for our study purpose. Now we are concentrated in how to change the firmware. In your website i can see that a number of image files in the firmware resources. I found the source code for linux kernal in github but i couldn’t understand which one should i use. Kindly provide us the whole source code for start learning the development and changing the characters in my own way. And please guide us to change the firmware.

Hi, Cinesoft:

The linux kernel source code are available at Github linux repo, just keep in mind that there are many different branches:

  • Vim: Android M
  • Nougat: Android N
  • ubuntu: linux-3.14 based on Android M

If you want to got mainline linux on Khadas VIM, you can take a reference of Martin’s github site

If you want to build Linux Distro for VIM, you can take a reference on Build Ubuntu from scrach.
