Debian has armel port.
Just follow any guide for bootstrapping Debian on A10 and replace
armhf and gueabihf with armel and gnueabi.
Hi everyone,
News here: I managed to make the reader work on a ARMHF debian.
What you need: Debian 7+.
Thanks to Multiarch support, I've been able to use the ARMSF (ARMEL) SDK, originally provided by DigitalPersona in UareU 2.2.0.
What to do:
Add the armel architecture in your debian distro:
dpkg --add-architecture armel
apt-get update
Install the armel C libs:
apt-get install libc6:armel libstdc++6:armel libglib2.0-0:armel
"libc6:armel" is enough for DigitalPersona UareU SDK, others are for my personal needs.
You must use the module (.ko file) compiled for armsf (armel). Check it's loaded using "lsmod | grep dpfp".
You should now be able to run the C samples.
In order to run the Java samples, you need to install Java for ARMSF too. Personally, I installed the JDK7 for ARMSF (it works fine even if I'm using Debian ARMHF).
I also had to make the libdpfp* files (provided in /lib/arm in the SDK) available from /usr/lib.
Hope it will help.
Regards.
