well then let me put it back on topic....
Ive began working on porting XBMC onto ARMv7 architecture.
Initially in scratchbox (a crosscompiler/emulator), then onto the beagleboard, then onto further more beefier hardware that will be released soon...
Ive successfully (i think) configured xbmc, and when i do make, it fails on a particular file due to there being assembly code in it (obv x86)...
The file in question is: XBMC\xbmc\cores\DllLoader\ldt_keeper.c (Line 132)
just thought id post my progress here, and perhaps someone is able to help with this. while i wait, i will be looking into x86 assembly and try understand what that chunk of assembler is trying to do... and perhaps recreate a C version.
Incase its relevant, the error i get when 'make' is... unknown register name eax in asm
