This is just how to which works for me (tested on ubuntu 10.04). I’m not responsible for you break PCs ;) . Be careful!

Assumptions:

installed ncurses-devel

1. download latest kernel (www.kernel.org) and untar to /usr/src

2. make oldnoconfig (create config but new options will no (N) by default)

3. make menuconfig (select ft1000 driver in staging/drivers like M – module)

4. make (take some time ;) )

5. make install (must be root)

6. make modules_install (must be root)

7. mkinitramfs -o initrd.img-2.6.37-rc5 2.6.37-rc5 (numbers depend on kernel version)

8. update /boot/grub/grub.cfg (for grup2) or /boot/grub/menu.lst (for grub) (create new entry for new kernel and initrd)
example for grub2: here
10. cp drivers/staging/ft1000/ft1000-usb/ft3000.img /lib/firmware/ (must be root)
11. make headers_install (optional)
Thats all. Reboot and enjoy your new kernel with ft1000 driver. Just plug your device and enjoy ;) . Tested on 2.6.37-rc5. If not sure just wait till 2.6.37 will be released if you don’t want use non stable kernel.

In this how-to I’ll provide script for doing this.

1. First you need to install wine for executing windows applications.

2. From iqrf webpage download   startup package and extract.
Example sources can be found in src directory.

3. Copy CC5x.exe from 3rdParties to src directory.

4. Use this cc21a.sh for building executable for TR-21A module (TR-31B are not supported yet by liqrf so makes no sense to compile).

cc21a.sh code:

#!/bin/bash
wine CC5x.exe -a -bu -Q -Vn "$@" -p16F88

Use then liqrf to load hex file to your TR-21A module. That’s all folks.
