Hi Shawn, If you use the serial port on the gumstix or a USB port you can connect to your computer directly. If you are using the serial connection you have to either have a serial port on your computer or a serial to USB converter and connect that into a USB port on your computer (note: most USB to serial converters require a driver in order to work, at least the BIGPINE one I have does, I'm not sure about others). Once you are connected you can use a terminal program like TeraTerm (although someone said this one doesn't work so well with gumstix because of a data transmission error, anyone know anything about that?) or HyperTerminal, etc. (there are many others), and you can then login to the gumstix using one of these programs. There are other ways to do it, this is just one solution, I hope it helps. Nick ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. |

I wasn't aware that the USB port on the gumstix wasn't setup by default, sorry for the confusion. I always use the serial port. If you don't have a serial port on your computer, you can use a serial to USB converter with the serial end on the gumstix and the USB on your computer. Of course, you will need the proper driver for any such cable that you buy. ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. |

Apparently TeraTerm will currupt files in transit.

I am using a usb cable, that my brother had for his camera, that fits my gumstix and my computer... I'm also in windows right now, but have a linux laptop as well. I plugged my power and usb cables all in, and tried hyperterminal on com1 and com2, no luck... Any more ideas? Does the order I connect everything matter?

You'd need to connect a serial port on the PC to a serial port on the gumstix. It might be possible to get usbnet to work, but you'd need to run a DHCP server on your windows machine. usbnet works really well in rev 773, but kind oif went downhill from there. -- Dave Hylands Vancouver, BC, Canada http://www.DaveHylands.com/ |
