3.18.0 kernel headers and SPI
Posted: Sun Feb 28, 2016 1:50 am
I am trying to get GPIB to work on an RPi B+, following this guide:

To use linux-gpib, I need the kernel headers, and the newest ones seem to be the ones of version 3.18. I installed those using
However, using that kernel, my SPI pins stop working
shows no devices.
When going back to the 4.X kernel, SPI works again.
I was reading that something regarding "device tree" changed in version 3.18, but it's not clear if 3.18.0 was before or after that change.
I would be grateful for any tips on how to get SPI to work with the 3.18.0 kernel, or where to get up-to-date kernel headers, so I can use them to build linux-gpib
Thanks
