Compiling Gecko OS

[Kamek]

I can't seem to compile Gecko OS properly. I get the following errors:

Am I using an outdated version of the source code, or did I just set it up wrong?

Hi,

i had the same problem. I suggest you are using the newest DevkitPro.
The sourcecode was build using an older version of DevKitpro, i think it was 1.4.7.

Try using this older 1.4.7, this should work (although i still did not make it to compile so that its working).

I think when the newest version come out you will be able to compile it because it's being made with the latest version of the devkit

Okay, so it's not something I'm doing wrong. Thanks   :cool:

I've actually decided I won't be releasing the source (I apologize for changing my stance on that.  I originally thought the source for the new version was under the same license as the source for the previous one, but when I found out it wasn't I decided it would be best not to release the source so that it doesn't end up being completely copied into a backup loader).

Since I won't be releasing the source for the next version, I figured the least I can do is fix up the old sources to compile on newer versions of devkitpro:

You shouldn't need to do anything special to get those fixed sources to compile correctly, you don't even need to change rvl.ld.

Thanks  ;D
