Debian / Pretec 802.11g ?

« on: September 05, 2009, 05:11:32 pm »

Hi Guys,

Can some one help me get the Pretec 802.11g card working?

I came across this link that mentions the card is supported:

http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/libertas

Where can I download the libertas_helper.fw and libertas.fw files?

Also, when I plug in my card the lights are not on.

iwconfig states no wireless extensions.


Thanks

« on: December 06, 2008, 03:40:37 pm »

Hi All,

I have hooked up my zaurus to an USB power Hub, connected a usb wifi dongle to the hub.....

dmesg reports :

usbcore: registered new interface driver zd1211rw

in my /etc/network/interfaces I have the following:

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
   wireless_essid XXXX
   wireless_mode managed
   wireless_key XXX

on execution of /etc/init.d/networking restart      I get:

wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device

How do I fix this?

Zaurus - pdaXrom / Pdaxng

« on: February 28, 2008, 08:48:46 am »

Hi Guys,

I found this  http://www.users.on.net/~hluc/myZaurus/distros.html

Who is working on this and when will it be available?


"The Next Generation Zaurus distro - Linux 2.6 and EABI

There currently is a lot of work being done on creating newer and better distros for the Zaurus based on the 2.6 kernel. Work on pdaXrom is still ongoing and has progressed to version r198. It still is full of annoying bugs. OpenZaurus is no more. It has been abandoned in favour of its successor, Angstrom. There has been some progress made in Angstrom which is also based on the latest 2.6 kernel as well as EABI. It is currently still in an unstable state. Debian has also been revamped and the new version is also using EABI and 2.6 kernel. There is no Debian installer for armel build for Zaurus yet, but it is possible to boot Debian for the Zaurus using a combo of bootloaders and custom 2.6 kernels. The future for a 2.6 kernel based distro on the Zaurus seems to be either with derivatives of Angstrom or Debian which are build using OpenEmbedded. Binaries compiled for each should be binary compatible, but library dependencies will be an issue.

pdaXng will be the next generation of pdaXii13 but build on top of a stable 2.6 kernel and updated libraries. It will retain the look and feel of pdaXrom but not be based on the pdaXrom code base and definately not use uboot."

Hi,

I am trying to install pdaXii13 on a 3200 but the kernel is not being flashed.
I think I might be using the wrong kernel?

The following files were used from the following page

updater.sh
updater-tools.bin
zImage-2.4.20.bin
initrd.bin

Please advise. Thanks for the help.

Debian / Debian Isos...

« on: January 10, 2008, 04:45:03 am »

Hi all,

While browsing the Debian ISO repo ( http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/4.0_r2/arm/iso-cd/ ), I came across the following images :
 
debian-40r2-arm-businesscard.iso
debian-40r2-arm-kde-CD-1.iso
debian-40r2-arm-netinst.iso
debian-40r2-arm-xfce-CD-1.iso

The debian-40r2-arm-businesscard.iso image is mentioned in this forum, has anyone used the other images?

If so, how?
