OpenZaurus, OZ on the 6000

[skoorb]

same problem here

[skoorb]

I guess I didn't read the whole post

once I issued

 /sbin/usbctl on 1

the card powered up

No access point here at work so I will try further when I get home

[nevarrie]

I've installed last nevarrie build fo opie,
i've correctly setup the wireless lan using the gui
but when i execute

ifup wlan0

receive  .....
wlan0 no such device......

Any helps to bring up my wireless

to the best of my knowledge I do nto believe tha the gui does any changes to the scripts in /etc/wlan/...these are the files that control the builtin wifi in the sl6000...the fines need to be edited by hand for right now...look earlier in this thread and you will find info on how those files work....

[skoorb]

now I cant even get the wireless to power on

tire /sbin/usbctl on 1

no such device

lsmod contains

pxa_bi
prism2_usb
p80211
usbdmonitor
usbcore
sharp_mmcsd_m
usbdcore



any ideas???

[skoorb]

guess I posted to fast.


I was missing

net_fd
 usb_ohci_tc6393

insmod usb_ohci_tc6393
insmod net_fd
then

usbctl on 1
turned it on for me

did a usbtl on 1

and it is on

ifconfig shows it as ethernet with the approriate IP address
the mac address is all zeros and I have no connection


any ideas what I am missing

usbctl on 1 just turns power on to the device...hotswap should detect that the devices is there and run the wlan-ng script and try to conntect to the network but it does not...this meant you need to run the wlan_bring_it_up wlan0 function in /etc/wlan/share.  The way I do this is modify /etc/init.d/wlan so that lines 44 and 46 are commented out:

Code: [Select]

     
#     if [ $HAS_HOTPLUG = 'n' ]; then
           wlan_bring_it_up $DEVICE
#     fi
then you can run wlanup to bring the interface up and wlandown to bring the interface down.  I usually run dmesg to see if I get the line linkstatus=CONNECTED.  If you see this you are connected to an access point and then can run ifup wlan0 to get an ip.


/sbin/wlanup also make sure that

• usb_ohci_tc6393 is loaded
• /dev/usb/host_ohci exists
• /sbin/usbctl on 1 is ran
• prism2_usb is loaded

/sbin/wlandown will disconnect the connection and then power off the wifi card.

I have not had the time to made it so that the networking in OPIE and GPE can do this yet and have not found any one on either of those projects that is doign it either.  So for now this is how I uses my z...

the script appears to work, but the mac address is till all zeros.


I can't try to connec to an access point till I get home, but shouldn't the mac address be legit??

Why no answer to this errors : ?

've installed yor new rom :
during boot i see theese errors :

unresolved symbols
/lib/modules/2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3/embedix/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/oricoco.o

/lib/modules/2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3/embedix/net/hostap-crypt_tkip.o

/lib/modules/2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3/embedix/net/hostap.o

/lib/modules/2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3/embedix/pcmcia/hostap_cs.o

What is wrong ?

[gab74]

I follow all the posts to configure my wlan :
i've all requested module inserted and comment out the strings in
/etc/init.d/wlan lines 44 and 46

when i type wlanup

receive many messagess...
Starting WLAN Devices: wlanctl-ng: Cannot assign requested address
prism2dl: Cannot assign requested address
load_cardpda failed, exting.
Unknow prism2 hardware type (), assuming SSF
Processing PDR file: /tmp/prism2_ssf.pda
prism2dl: Cannot assign requested address
Couldn't fetch PRI-SUP info

....and so on

I try to ping the address i've assigned to my wireless from the gui and it pings
but when i try to ping my access point id doesent ping at all, so i think wireless is powered on but not working....

Any helps

I had not noticed the mac address was all 0's before...On the sharp rom it does give a mac address though it looks like on OZ is it doing this...I quess there is still problems with wlan-ng that may need to be looked into...

I had not noticed these errors has being unresolved symbols during boot...I though they were complaning about tainting the kernel witha  binary only module...I will have to look into this more then I have time.

what does dmesg tell you?  I have not get that error myself yet.

hoping this will help you to solve my wlan problem

prism2usb_init: prism2_usb.o: 0.2.1-pre21 Loaded
prism2usb_init: dev_info is: prism2_usb
usb.c: registered new driver prism2_usb

It looks to me as if the prism2_usb driver is being loaded before the ohci_usbhost is getting loaded...I am not sure if that is correct or not but that is what I see from dmesg...you maybe able to rmmod prism2_usb and then run wlanup and it may work...

[gab74]

It does not work.....my wlan is still down....

1) Nevarrie i'm using the last build of opie made by you, after booting i've this module :
usbcore
sharp_mmcsd_m
pxa_bi
net_fd
usbcore

2)i've modified etc/init.d/wlan as you said

3) i think i have to insert some other modules
so i do
insmod usbdmonitor
insmod usb_ohci_tc6393
insmod p80211
insmod prism2_usb

IS THIS RIGHT

4) i type wlanup and see the errors i told you.....

( for information : Wlan POwer On and i can ping my wlan IP.....but noother...)

What am i missing ?
is it possible to have the rigth procedure for bringing up the Wireless Lan ?
