Compiling Gargoyle for TLMR3220 v2.1

Post by irfus »

Hello,

I'd been using Gargoyle for a while on my old router (TLWR740n v1), and only recently bought the MR3220 v2.1. I've been using OpenWRT trunk builds on that, but the QoS and bandwidth monitoring capabilities that Gargoyle provides are essential to me. I've been going through both the OpenWRT buildroot docs and the Gargoyle developer documentation, and set up a vm running ArchLinux with the prereq. build environment (my base system is OSX 10.7.5).

My issue now is, that the Attitude_Adjustment branch does not build without patches for v2.1 of this router. I found a patch to add support on the OpenWRT boards, by a user called Cindy.Wijaya. However, for the life of me, I've been unable to figure out how to apply it to the OpenWRT sources pulled by Gargoyle's build scripts. I've never used either Git or SVN before, and the combination of the two (as I understand Gargoyle uses Git, and pulls the OpenWRT sources using subversion once the build script is run) is driving me crazy right now.

I also found polish builds of Gargoyle on eko.one.pl that support my router (by Cezary?), and so am hopeful that I should be able to get Gargoyle running on my router, but currently I'm just stuck.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Try to patch the files manually on the downloaded Openwrt sources and then build from there.

PM me if you need to buy Gargoyle router in Australia/NZ, willing to pay me to help you on your Gargoyle configurations or build custom configured ROM with pre-installed app or try to fix your bricked router. Yes, I am looking for job/work.

I did. But the patch was for an older revision of Attitude Adjustment (r35052). I found in the build script where I can specify the revision of OpenWRT that is downloaded, but I wasn't sure if the current Gargoyle code would be compatible. Also, I have no development background and am finding the whole thing quite confusing. All I need right now is a build of Gargoyle like the one Cezary built for this router, except for the polish translation.

The current gargoyle is based on Attitude Adjustment, so it would work if you patch it properly.

Have fun building it.
