Hi all, I want to set up the power probe only without any other streamline functions, can I make it? It seems that the IP Address in the Capture Options window must be filled, so the gator driver and daemon should be compiled then, but I have compiling error.
Can I set up power probe only? If not, do we have proper gator without compiling error?
Thanks.

What kernel and gator code are you using and what compilation error are you getting?
Linaro's Android builds already contain Gator, and you can install Gator on Ubuntu from the Linaro's Overlay PPA with
apt-get install gator gator-module-dkms
Some (most?) Linaro Ubuntu kernels already ship with the gator kernel module and don't require you to install the second package 'gator-module-dkms'.
If you need to build your own the Gator for some reason, the source code code Linaro builds use is in git://git.linaro.org/arm/ds5/gator.git

I should also add that the Gator code is in the linux-linaro-crore-tracking branch so all Linaro kernels based on the latest linux version should already be including it. And for people maintaining older kernels, there are topic branches I provide that people can pull into their kernel tree's. E.g.
http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=landing-teams/working/arm/kernel.git%3Ba=shor... http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=landing-teams/working/arm/kernel.git%3Ba=shor...

Thank you Jon,
I used the gator source code from the USB disc offered by ARM at Hong Kong Connect, it seems old and I am using the source code tree as you told me now.
Current status is like this: I found the built-in gator.ko as you told me, and built the gatord from the git tree successfully. (The reason I don't use gatord by apt-get is that the gatord from PPA is an old version and doesn't match the gator.ko version.) I also updated the DS-5 to the latest version. I can connect to the target and get the streamline data now. But there is till no Power Probe data, and I don't know why.

The gator package in the Linaro Overlay PPA is the latest, but it was only uploaded just over a week ago for the 12.08 release, perhaps you were getting the previous one?

Glad to hear you got it working.

I've never used or looked at Power Probe so can't help there I'm afraid.

I just know there is a Linaro Overlay PPA for this gator, I didn't add
this PPA manually, by default there is no such PPA. I think this is the reason of old version gatord.

This PPA should be added by default in all Linaro images because it is the PPA which contains most of Linaro's output. If it doesn't then it's a bug which needs reporting and fixing.
Which image or hwpack are you using? Can you double check if the image's root file system has the file etc/apt/sources.list.d/linaro-overlay-ppa.list

I am using the July release (no Aug Ubuntu release for Snowball) .
and I have the file: # cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/linaro-overlay-ppa.list # Linaro Overlay PPA deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/linaro-maintainers/overlay/ubuntu precise main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/linaro-maintainers/overlay/ubuntu precise main

There's documentation here: http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.dui0482h/ch13.ht... http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.dui0482h/ch13.ht...
And there's a video of the process here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDStdtopy_g
You'll need a real license for ds5, not just the community edition. I was never able to work out my licensing issues (even though it said my license was valid) so I wasn't able to get this up and running, but I think if you can get past that, you should be able to do a capture with it just fine.
Thanks, Paul Larson

Thank you Paul,
I have learned the document and setup the streamline following the information offered by Jon. It seems there is no license issue for me, I can get streamline chart, but there is still no Power Probe data.
Thanks,
