SIMpad forum / What You Do Or Want To Do With Your Simpad?

« on: October 15, 2008, 07:12:25 am »

Hi all,

first of all thanks to mr_nice for reviving the website (I like the wiki approach very much) and reviving at least one forum.

I used 0.8.4 for a long time, mainly for X forwarding (I have one linux-"server" constantly running for WLAN, pppoe and file&spool services).

These days I use VNC (seems to be faster and I love booting the device and just continuing with the old session)

What I would love to have would be a angstroem-build, where the system boots as fast as possible and only has wlan-networking (WPA) and a vnc-session starting immediatly (no login prompt - just the vnc screen fullscreen).

At the moment I install, upgrade, install the vnc and remove all the rest (takes a long time).

Cheers
Rainer

SIMpad forum / Angstroem 2007.12 Networking

« on: January 11, 2008, 10:13:36 am »

Hi,

recently installed Angstroem 2007.12 on my Simpad SL4, basically to get rid of the WEP still active in my WLAN-network.

Problems up to now:
- ipaq-sleep bug (http://bugs.openembedded.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3578 )
- WLAN does not work (no orinoco/host_ap kernel module in the image)
- usbnet does not work (no usbnet kernel module in the image)

Question:
How are we supposed to ipkg update on the device to get new software in?

Cheers
Rainer

Just wanted to say thank you for updating the opensimpad.org site! I didn't know that this forum existed, just found out there.

Well done, I like your idea of using mediawiki!

Best regards and keep up the good work
