Gemini PDA - General Discussion / Electronic tickets, bording passes
« on: July 04, 2018, 05:18:17 am »
Has anyone tried using an electronic ticket or boarding pass on the Gemini? I suspect there might be problems as the screen cannot be put flat on the scanner of those airport/Eurostar gates.

Gemini PDA - Hardware / Rear camera module image quality very poor

Have you built and installed a Linux kernel before?  There are instructions for building and installing a kernel suitable for Debian here: https://github.com/gemian/gemini-keyboard-a...rnelCompilation.  Building for Android is slightly different, requiring the aeon6797_6m_n_defconfig config file instead, plus some extra Android-specific parameters sent to mkbootimg.  The keyboard mapping under my test kernel is not entirely correct (ESC is neither ESC nor Power, for example).  Planet Computers did not compile in support for /proc/configs.gz in their stock Android kernel so I don't know what's missing (yet).  But I don't want to get to too far off topic in this camera thread.

Linux kernel: yes, I even contributed code. But how to put the kernel onto an Android device is a mistery to me.

Just for fun, I modified the kernel to disable the MediaTek hardware JPEG codec which forced Android to use its own software routines to encode the image data in JPEG format.

Could you please tell us how to build and install the Android kernel?
