Oh, and installing the 0.7.2 versions of libpcap is an exercise in wheel spinning. We have libpcap 0.8.3 on the feed and I promise it works

Like I mentioned it's even in the ROM itself. I had to include libpcap in the base ROM because some applications we have built-in depend on it, for example wpa_supplicant and tcpdump.

apparently libpcap isn't in the ROM though.
SO to get Wellenreiter to run, you need:
Libopie 1 and 2.
Libpcap
and Wellenreiter itself.

edit: checked, and it works fine this way. Some complaints in the Wellenreiter logging, but that should be directed at its author anyway. THe wellenreiter fonts are *really* small though. Both prortrait and landscape seem to work fine

Tell me if I'm wrong. All the packages are on the cacko feed, so you won't have to hunt them down (nice job  )

libbcap 0.8.3  IS in the ROM, trust me However some programs may be linked specificaly to version 0.7, so you may need to create a link:

/usr/lib/libpcap.so.0.7 -> /usr/lib/libpcap.so.0.8.3

so libcap and libpcap are the same thing? joy, didn't know that  
I do look like an idiot now eh?
I'll check the link and edit.
What's weird is that wellenreiter complained about the missing libpcap on a default install, and I fixed that by installing .8  
I vill furzer test, jah!

Watch the networks appear.


Thank you very much, I followed your advice and got kismet working on the first try! Very nice


But oddly enough, I can't seem to connect to a network in the "normal" way. Meaning I can't connect to the WiFi service at the book store and surf from there (I should be able to get to their subscription page and sign in, but I can't connect).

And for some reason, my CF WiFi card shows up as a "Zcomax XI-325H 200mw" instead of what it really is, a "EZ Connect SMC2642W"

In /etc/pcmcia/hostap_cs.conf the config lines for the two cards are nearly the same (with the "manfid 0xd601, 0x0005" line being commented out on the SMC entry.

I tried deleting all of the other config entries except the SMC one but then the card wasn't recognized at all. Now I'm commenting out the "manfid..." line from the zcomax entry to see what happens there.

Nuts, it didn't help. Couldn't recognize the card.


Any thoughts on this?

This whole libpcap confusion is really my fault folks.  I was not paying attention during some of final ROM builds when libpcap was added to the base ROM image.  There is only a link to libpcap missing:

/usr/lib/libpcap.so.0.7 -> /usr/lib/libpcap.so.0.8.3

Some apps compiled against an older libpcap look for this older version of the library.  Since in my testing libpcap 0.8.3 is compatible with libpcap 0.7 just the link is needed.  This will be fixed in the first hotfix and the libpcap package will be removed from the feed as it is unnecessary.  So, if you must...curse my name.

You are obviously incompetent.  
Thanks for figuring it out.

I just installed the updated wellenreiter from the feed and it works great from the command line (don't even need kismet running first anymore or run it with sudo), but it refuses to run by tapping on the icon.  Ok, maybe I shouldn't say refuse; the light on my network card turns on and if you do a ps -A it shows it as running, but it never comes up.

Remember that you need to restart pcmcia subsystem after editing configuration files:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia restart

Or reboot your Z.

Also check that version field exactly matches the string you get with cardctl ident for your card.

Yes sir, I rebooted it each time (I backed up the original and tried a few intutitive variations that I mentioned with no luck).


Here's what cardctl ident spits out:

#cardctl ident
Socket 0
  product info" " ", "SMC2642W 11 Mbps Wireless CF Card", ""
  manfid: 0xd601, 0x0005
  function: 6 (network)
Socket 1:
  no product info available

Here's the SMC entry in hostap:

card "SMC EZ Connect SMC2642W 802.11b card"
   version " ", "SMC2642W 11mMbps Wireless CF Card", ""
#   manfid 0xd601, 0x0005
   bind "hostap_cs"


Here's the Zcomax entry:

card "Zcomax XI-325H 200mW"
#   version " ", "IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN/PC Card"
   manfid 0xd601, 0x0005
   bind "hostap_cs"


Cardctl thinks it's a SMC2642W (which is correct) but the applet in the tray thinks it's a Zcomax XI-325H 200mW card.


The card works great for Kismet, but doesn't work at all for browsing or for Wellenreiter (the connection times out and gets aborted).


Btw, thanks for the great ROM and thanks for your help

Ok, try to comment manfid 0xd601, 0x0005 for Zomax and uncomment for your card (commenting version field at the same time)

Okay, I now get the correct device listed. Thanks!

Wellenreiter seems to be working (I'm not near a working wireless connection so I can't be sure).

Not sure about Opera, should the settings for the network be the same as for kismet?


Thanks again

Stupkid:
Nice work on the updated Wellenreiter (FYI, I updated without downloading the entire feed  )

I'm experiencing the GUI crashing if resolution changes. Anyone else having this problem? It'll work fine in either landscape or portrait as long as it is started in that mode.

Tip for those that run Qtopia in root mode, edit out the sudo commands in the start_wellenreiter script & it runs fine.

Cheers,

Hi,

Appreciate someone can help me out. I am a totally noob here. I managed to get Wellenreiter working. However, when I launch it, it says "You have started Wellenreiter as non-root. You will have only limited functionality. Proceed anyway?" If I click Yes, I am still able to detect the WiFi networks but certain functions are grey out, such as Intrusion etc..
I have already check the Execute with root privilege box.
Any idea? Help...
