Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Terminfo For Console

hmm, I set mine to "xterm" in /etc/profile and MidnightCommander works fine, also Kismet runs in color as well.

Cheers

hm, i think "xterm" vs "rxvt" doesn't quite make a difference...

i have min set as TERM=linux (i use bootstarp with no X) and it works great with ncmpc with a config to enable color
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=144085\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

with commenting out the TERM=vt100 line in /etc/profile,  TERM is set to "rxvt" by, ha, rxvt. (i use gpe) this works quite ok.

PS: for some console apps the default font size is still to big (vi for instance),  so you get garbeld output when wrapping lines around. i have it set to 14, this seems small enough for vi and big enough for me ;-)

I'm re-installing my apps to an SD card as there is not much space in root but this is taking a very long time (slower memory?) and I'm taking care to do an ipkg-link add for each package. Here is what I get when I try to run kismet. Has anybody got kismet working or is there a version of wellenreiter? There must be some way for GPE users to sniff out wireless networks!

the kismet package from the upgrades feed is broken since being linked to _two_ different c++ libs instead of just one. i put a notice in the 3.5.4.x upgrades thread to ask hrw to rebuild it. in the meantime you can use my homebuilt kismet package located [a href=\"http://www2.informatik.hu-berlin.de/~beier/code/kismet_2006-04-R1-r0_arm.ipk]here[/url]. this is only temporary till the package in the official upgrades feed is fixed...

EDIT: this is now fixed in the upgrades feed, thanks hrw!

hrw,
the kismet package from the upgrades feed is broken. won't start because the binaries are linked to libuclibc++0 _and_ libstdc++6.

i re-built the kismet package myself using the org.openembedded.oz354x branch (but had to add a dependency to ncurses to get it built...) and it works perfectly (since not being linked to two c++ libs).

so could you just rebuild the package, so that other users don't end up with a broken kismet package?

thanks...

Is there a terminfo definition for the OZ console? I tried to keep TERM unset, set it to linux, xterm, rxvt; Midnight Commander doesn't work correctly in any case.

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Firefox Input Broken
« on: September 27, 2006, 10:13:12 am »
hey there,

i'm wondering a bit that noone else came across that issue, since firefox seems to be the only ssl-capable browser for GPE (or am i wrong here ?!?)

firefox is the only app i came to try that refuses fn-key combinations as its input (e.g ':' on a c760). works well if started on a remote display ...

am i the only one? any hints to fix this?

seen on a c760 running OZ 3.5.4.1. GPE ...

Sorry to be thck, but could you post details of more or less exactly what you did, as I'm slightly at a loss as to which firmware I need for my Ambicom 1100C.

Yes it does, it uses a different cpu, so I would be surprised if it worked.

be suprised, it works ;-)

i just downloaded the modified modules from [a href=\"http://zaurus.aircrack-ng.org/akita]http://zaurus.aircrack-ng.org/akita[/url] , unpacked the ipkgs and copied hostap.ko and hostap_cs.ko over to my z.
made a backup of the original modules and overwrote them. a quick depmod -a  did not complain, also the drivers loaded without problems. the rest is described under http://linux.junsun.net/intersil-prism/

happy flashing ;-)

cool!

i already started to setup my own OE env to build the modded drivers myself, but as it turned out, building sth with OE is a quite nice stress test and after 1,5 days one of my hard drives went into nirvana... i'll give the akita modules a try, despite me owning a c760, but that shouldn't make much of a difference.

hm, i thought strongarm (collie) vs. xscale (c7x0) was _really_ different (as it's a different architecture && instruction set), but to me the difference between pxa255 and pxa 270 is more like between i586 and i686, or am i getting sth wrong ?

btw, the *.conf files in OE for c7x0 and akita seem very similar too, both inherit zaurus-clamshell.conf (and in there only some sound stuff is different) ...

hi there,

as http://wiki.openzaurus.org/FAQ#WiFi_related_questions states under WPA encryption support, the card's station firmware must be at least 1.7.0 to do WPA.

it further links to a page ( http://linux.junsun.net/intersil-prism ) describing how to update your card's firmware, but not without saying that oz doesn't provide a hostap driver with support for flashing firmwares.

unfortunately, this appears to really be the case: the userspace tool (prism2_srec) is available and able to check for firmware compatibility, but it seems the kernel driver (is this hostap.ko ? or hostap_cs.ko ?) isn't compiled with support for fw flashing.

i can understand this: "we do not want to hear that users bricked their cards by mistake", but in some other way it reduce the freedom of users to willingly update their cards or brick them (if they really like to ;-) ).

i was a bit unsure to report this as a bug, as its a mere feature wish, and i'm not sure if this would ever qualify as a candidate for the 3.5.4.x upgrade feed, so i started a new topic.

to sum this up, i think the most probable solution is someone building a special hostap kernel module with this feature enabled. as i don't have an OE environment and fear a bit setting it up, i carefully ask people that have one to do this. if you have some spare computation time, i (and probably others) would be quite delighted to be able to update their cards to do WPA.

muchas gracias in advance...

PS: i have a c760 with (by now) 3.5.4 installed. think the situations is the same in 3.5.4.1. (at least according to pacthes in OE repo).

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / 2gig Sd On C700 In Oz 3.5.4 ?

I seem to have problems with my SD..
Let's say I am downloading something to it using wget..

Wget just hung on me..
And if I just try to do ls in /media/card - that hangs too...maybe I should use ext2 instead of ext3 right? For speed...I just thought ext3 was a pretty good idea for removable storage..
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=125889\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

actually the filesystem on your card shouldn't really matter (in terms of functionality), but ext2 is indeed the better choice because a journalling fs like ext3 wears out the flash much faster (and doesn't gain you any real benefits).
