Compile Wolfson Audio Card driver for kernel 3.12.y , a new try | Künstliche Intelligenz, 3D-Druck, Open Source und Linux

The easy way:

# Download the binaries from here:

sha1sum kernelAndFirmware_wolfson_rt.tar.bz2 is

76c3b38f588f09ae6a557f3065ce9dc30674615b kernelAndFirmware_wolfson_rt.tar.bz2

mkdir kernelAndFirmware_wolfson_rt

Extract:

tar -xvjf kernelAndFirmware_wolfson_rt.tar.bz2 -C kernelAndFirmware_wolfson_rt

and copy to root of the Raspberry pi.

sudo nano /boot/config.txt

change

kernel=kernel.img

# kernel=kernel.img

kernel=kernel_new.img

sudo sync

sudo reboot

or do it the hard way 😉
