Bridge Usb0 And Wlan0

Hi,

I am sure the answer is in the forum somewhere, but I can not find it and I am stuck.

I have C1000 and have installed 3.5.4.1. I am trying to connect to the internet via my laptop using a bridge on the laptop between usb0 and wlan0. The wlan0 connects to my ADSL router.

I think I have followed the procedures on the OZ web site and in the pinned connection topic in this forum.

I have got it to the stage where the C1000 talks to the laptop and the laptop will talk to the world, but the bridge does not seem to forward between usb0 and wlan0 (no ping from the C1000 to anything other than the laptop.)

I am now stuck. The laptop is running slackware, and I will try on the slackware forum if that is the right place to ask.

Hope someone can help.

I have appended the output of some commands below.

Cheers,

Colin

So here what is set up laptop

Using Bitbake Gives: Note: Exceptions.syntaxerror:

Hi,

I am trying to set up bitbake to do some oz developement. I think I have followed the instructions on the OpenEmbedded "Getting Started" Wiki. When I try "bitbake nano" all I get is lots of complaints about:

quote
NOTE: exceptions.SyntaxError:EOL while scanning single-quoted string (line 1) while evaluating:
unquote

(there is more of the output at the end of the post if it helps.)

I have tried org.openembedded.dev and org.openembedded.oz354fam083.
I have tried bitbake -rHead, -r394 and the bitbake tarball at ewi546.ewi.utwente.nl. Using earlier versins of bitbake just gives me complaints about sanity.conf file.

I have hunted around and seen others struggle with this, not found a solution that works. Any help appreciated.

Cheers,

Colin
