Hi there,
i just installed the new Angstrom x11 Image on my SimPad SLC. Works nice. But i can't find a way to get my Wlan Card up and running. The card works, I used it under familiar before. If I click on "PC/CF Cards" under Settings, I get an error message "PCMCIA initialisation failed No PCMCIA driver in '/proc/devices'" If i open the "Root shell" and type in "pccardctl ident" it finds the card at Socket 0 and knows it's a function 6 (network) card. What am I missing here? Can someone point me to a manual somewhere, that explains how to get the pcmcia card running under angstrom? Thanks Johannes |

Hi :-)
I try to test it too with my Simpad SL4 ... GREAT WORK ... first issue are the basic functions ... - flashing with serial console vie USB / serial adapter work fine (little slow with serial) ... - on first startup to set clock and timezone no virtual keyboard available ... - missing berlin/german timezone / german localization (maybe I am able to help!) - missing usbnet support on Simpad ... ... second with some enhanced features ... - my SIEMENS I-GATE 11M WLAN card is not recognized ... no WPA :-( for wlan / networl setting applet - how to get my serial little keyboard work (DATACOMP Model DPK62AV V3.1) ... at the moment I need the port for serial terminal connection (login) - sound missing - some software missing ... (maybe via ipkg repos later) - add sd/mmc slot - add bluetooth dongle (but problem to get one with simple usb for "serial" connection only (maybe someone knows where to buy one in germany?) I attach a logfile later today ... Martin |

hi,
thanks for testing the images  .please report those bugs to the bugtracker [1]. -sound is not working atm. because there is no driver for it in 2.6 [2] -serial keyboard should work with kbdd [3]. but I am not shure if there isn't a kernel side driver for your keyboard so that you even don't need kbdd. But please report this also to the bugtracker because kbdd is not in angstrom feeds [4]. - some wireless drivers are missing in the feeds. i need to check that. but please also send it to the bugtracker .best regards mr nice 1 http://bugs.openembedded.org/ 2 http://bugs.openembedded.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2319 3 http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/kbdd 4 http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/repo/...p;action=search |
