What about BT audio? Once the BT stik comes out, you should be able to use a BT headset and have wireless audio. This sort of thing already works under linux on the ipaqs IIRC. Dwayne |

To follow up on this, the most current pre-built release on sourceforge seems to be, wait for it, 1410! Wonderful... So I get to roll my own to get the netwifimicroSD-vx card working, right? Arrghhh... I have a verdex 400 running the 1410 release. I have both a netcf-vx and a netwifimicroSD-vx, neither one of which works under 1410. It would be nice if someone would put a pre-built binary up there that allowed these cards to work... If I'm missing something here (quite possible) some one please tell me.

I don't think that there is a single image which will allow both of those boards to work. The netCF should work on the 1410 image. I have a modified 1533 which allows the netwifimicrosd to work: <http://davehylands.com/gumstix-wiki/verdex-1533-wifi/> I also see that I have a 1421 image posted, and I'm pretty sure that the netCF works on that. The stock 1533 image should work with the netCF. It wasn't until shortly after this that the necessary changes to support the netwifimicrosd board were rolled into svn. -- Dave Hylands Vancouver, BC, Canada http://www.DaveHylands.com/ |

Ok, thanks to Dave Hylands I'm up and running on a modified 1533 image, both eth0 and mwlan0 now work and I'm a happy camper ;-) Oh, and Hyperterm's kermit worked just fine, confirm your downloads with crc32 just to be sure.

Hi, I'm having identical problem mounting an SD card (1GB). Sometimes the card isn't recognised at all (no messages at all in dmesg). Sometimes I get the error about "unable to read the bootsector" and sometimes it just works flawlessly and I can write/read as much data as I want. I've found that reloading the relevant kernel modules occasionally fixes the problem, although it sometimes makes it worse, resulting in kernel oops messages (mainly about IRQs not being allocated correctly). Any suggestions on how to fix this would be more than welcome!

Gerhard, You need to route between subnets to make this work w/o the aid of external hackery. I do exactly this with a DHCP driven wlan0 and a static eth0. The magic is to set ip_forward=yes in /etc/network/options. Here is my /etc/network/interfaces for reference; auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.55.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 # # Wireless interfaces # # auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp wireless_mode managed wireless_essid IPTRAINS Assuming that the DHCP info supplied to the wlan0 has a default route, etc. you will wind up with something like this; root@gumstix-custom-verdex:~$ route Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.55.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 192.168.51.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0 default 192.168.51.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 wlan0 So, the 192.168.51.0 subnet contains PC, the stix wlan0 and connection to outside and the 192.168.55.0 subnet is strictly the cross over cable btwn eth0 and the device at 192.168.55.2 . One could use a more restrictive mask to conserve address space in the .55 block. And of course, wlan0 could be static as well. Works like socks on a rooster ;-) Hope this helps...JT "Gerhard H. says:" > > hello, > > I have got some network configuration issues with my Verdex XM4 and XL6P. > > I would like to be able to get access to an Ethernet device connected to > the gumstix via netwifimicroSD module. > > What I got to run was to login via WLAN into the gumstix > (see also > http://www.nabble.com/Verdex-as-Access-Point-td18488746.html#a18488746 > thanks to bobby for this info). > > I am a newbie in this area of networking stuff, and what I finally want > is the following: > the PC (wlan0: 192.168.20.2), the gumstix (wlan0: 192.168.20.10; eth0 > 192.168.20.11) and the 3rd ethernet device (192.168.20.20) connected to > the gumstix (on eth0) shall be logically in one net e.g. ping 192.168.20 > on the PC shall work. > > I read about brctl, but it is not at the gumstix by default, and after > trying to load a new rootFs to XL6P the DHCP mechanism seems not to run > and so it stays quite and I am not able to login any more over ethernet, > because I have no console-vx boards at the moment.

Jeff, thanks for your hints. I got to run it now. Your ip_forwarding info was very useful and I had also problems with my standard gateways... Here my configuration (incl. standard gateways) for others who want to have a similar configuration: * PC: ip_wlan0: 192.168.9.21 std_gateway: 192.168.9.20 * gumstix: ip_wlan0: 192.168.9.20 and ip_eth0: 192.168.10.19 ** no standard gateway configuration needed, because ip_forward is activated * tini(connected to gumstix eth0): ip: 192.168.10.11 std_gateway: 192.168.10.19 This configuration allows to do the following ping at the PC: ping 192.168.10.19 Gerhard Jeff Tyler schrieb: > Gerhard, > > You need to route between subnets to make this work w/o the aid of external > hackery. > > I do exactly this with a DHCP driven wlan0 and a static eth0.
