To be honest I really don't know why this is happening: root@jimkirk2:/usr/src/lobos/stb/trunk/ip1000_tvout# make gcc -O2 -g -Wall -c -o main.o main.c gcc -O2 -g -Wall -c -o gmch.o gmch.c gcc -O2 -g -Wall -c -o i2c.o i2c.c gcc -O2 -g -Wall -c -o cx2587x.o cx2587x.c gcc -O2 -g -Wall -c -o i830_video.o i830_video.c gcc -O2 -g -Wall -c -o video_modes.o video_modes.c gcc -o ip1000-tvout main.o gmch.o i2c.o cx2587x.o i830_video.o video_modes.o -lp ci /usr/lib/gcc/i486-slackware-linux/4.2.3/../../../libpci.a(names.o): In function `pci_load_name_list': names.c:(.text+0x46b): undefined reference to `gzopen' names.c:(.text+0x4f3): undefined reference to `gzgets' names.c:(.text+0x54a): undefined reference to `gzeof' names.c:(.text+0x612): undefined reference to `gzclose' names.c:(.text+0x783): undefined reference to `gzclose' names.c:(.text+0x975): undefined reference to `gzerror' names.c:(.text+0x992): undefined reference to `gzclose' names.c:(.text+0xa27): undefined reference to `gzopen' names.c:(.text+0xaa0): undefined reference to `zError' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [ip1000-tvout] Error 1
Haha, the infamous libpci dependency on libz strikes again. Either recompile libpci without gzip compression support, or add -lz to the linker options in the makefile. That's it.
An alternative would be to use the huge chunk of code in the flashrom makefile which deals with this ugly wart of libpci. There's no need to write such makefile code from scratch because flashrom already handles it, and it works on pretty much every platform out there (DOS/Linux/*BSD/Solaris/MacOSX).

Hello! It does make sense. I'll examine the makefile for the for the primary system and pass the changes along to the secondary while I am at it. Thank you Carl-Daniel.
As for why I am interested in these systems, it turns out they are perfect for displaying digital data directly. I'll need to track down the data on the NB and SB portions of the boards used in the systems, but I'll cross that bridge when I need to.
Incidentally Joe, it turns out that Intel provides a fairly complete Linux developers kit for the target inside the Akimbo platform. It's referenced on the pages belonging to the fellow who helped you with the TV out issue for the first platform. Such as the page discussing adding a serial port to the Akimbo platform. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8@gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again."
