Reply To: Retrobit USB Genesis Adapter Driver Install?

[scotty]

Ok, for anyone struggling with this adapter, I was able to get it to work by editing the /drivers/hid/hid-input.c using the “alternate method” listed in the link above. I had never compiled a kernel before, but I was able to make my way through it.

At the end of hours and hours of compiling I had a new kernel.img file that I replaced with the edited code. I was shocked when it worked since I really had no idea what I was doing.

I’ll try and post the edited img file for anyone else so they should be able to just copy and paste if you are using a 3.12.x Kernel rather than monkeying around and spending an entire day trying to compile linux from scratch.
