WINXP TROUBLESHOOTING

INSTALLING DRIVER FOR USB DONGLE

With some release of Windows Xp, you must manually install the USB drivers of the Rialto board.

In this case, go to FTDI driver page download and install Windows driver.

CYGWIN1.DLL TROUBLES WITH WINXP

Jennic SDK Toolchain install CygWin API inside the folder C:\Jennic\cygwin.

Some XP installation have the file “cygwin1.dll” inside C:windowssystem32 folder.

This is a cause for fatal error during project building.

If it occours, build fails and on the “Console” tab of the Jennic Eclipse you can see one or more messages as follow:

290 [main] ? (680) c:\Jennic\Tools\ba-elf-ba2\bin\ba-elf-gcc.exe: *** fatal error - cygheap base mismatch detected - 0x611668E0/0x611688E0.
This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the cygwin DLL.
Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility
and delete all but the most recent version.  The most recent version *should*
reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have
installed the cygwin distribution.  Rebooting is also suggested if you
are unable to find another cygwin DLL.

To solve this trouble with Jennic Eclipse Builder, we suggest to try to remove file “cygwin1.dll” located inside folder C:\Windows\system32

We suggest to rename the file in your system folder and check if there are no other troubles

Be careful if you have other applications that use cygwin!! Removing file from OS system folder must be checked before.
