Re: GPRS / Wifi
Thanks for your reply. But I still not agree. which means of communications hould the fr chose? configuration will say it. the user ordered is preferences. Maybe depending on price. Maybe depending on performance. so it's not really automatic (and had nothing to do with the keyboard problem ;) ) : I choosed before. If I take a concrete example : my ~/.wgetrc. i wan't to connect to internet - from home, with wifi, I have direct access to internet. - from work, with wifi, I must use a proxy. - from outside, I must use GPRS with another proxy. It's easy to make a script that will update .wgetrc. But there will be configuration - in wpa_supplicant ( If I understood well). - in post-up operations of pppd. Those scripts are not specifics to users. Everyone will have do the same. Anyway, I'll try to do something for me and see if it can be shared. arne anka a écrit : you can do that in wpa_supplicant.conf. just add your different wifi-aps to the conf (it does wep and no enc, too) and let wpa_supplicant handle it. I'll take a look. But there must be something I don't understand. Because if wpa_supplicant handle only wifi, what about usb, gprs or other connections ? Is there a way to federate all network connections ? i am not sure if understand you issue at all. - you can handle all you known wifi networks in wpa_supplicant.conf. it's not the user firenliest solution, but anyway - usb networking is a rather static way (since ip and probably dns are more or less hardcoded on the fr) - gprs is subject to limitations beyound your reach -- ususally your provider puts you in some kind of vpn, not available from the inet by othe means then a proxy of your provider. - bt networking seem snot to be a widely used option so, imo the only means of networking subject to intelligent settings are wfi and gprs. wifi is, as said before, configurable in wpa_supplicant.conf (ar any othe way, like networkmanager). gprs does not need more than one setting since you usually use only the entry point your provider offers. all connections use their own devices: eth0 for wifi, bnetX for bt (i guess), ubs0 for usb and finally ppp0 (i think) for gprs. the scripts below /etc/network/if-up.d/ and /etc/network/if-down.d/ have acces to the name of the interface used for networking ($IFACE on my debian box) -- thus you can easily distinguish the means of networking and execute actions appropriately. something like internet [on|of] would be impractical imo not at least because you very easy might find yourself in situations where both wifi and gprs is available, you have tehterd you rf via usb to the notebook in an attempt to use the fr as modem and there might even be one or more people around you with enabled bluetooth. which means of communications hould the fr chose? while it might be decidable most of the time (have a rule basically saying: if one of the wifi networks a, b, c or d is available, use it), i'd rather have an app allowing me to check the means of communication i want and that does not automatically connect, in the worst case to gprs while i am out of area and causing heavy charges -- then we are basically where the discussion on the asu keyboard switcher took off: what good is automatism and who wants is? ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

i don't think so -- checking the proxy variable should be transparent to the apps and done by which layer is responsible for managing th connection. indeed, if the variable is only in environnement, you must restart. Also, I'm still not sure that there is a variable. Who can set it ? Only pam is able to do it. In anyway, I'll try to make something. I'd be happy if it's useful.

GPRS / Wifi
Hi. I succeded to connect to GRPS with FSO. I never succedeed under OM2007 or ASU. If somebody is interested, I'm in France and my provider is Bouyges Telecom. I completed http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Manually_using_GPRS with my APN. But I'm asking this : When using wifi or usb, I don't need a proxy. When using GPRS, I need a proxy. I will not re-configure anything each time. Does somebody know if there is a solution ? (I will try to put an iptable rule to use my provider's proxy - wich is a transparent proxy - but this will not work for https.) To connect to internet, what would be nice is an application that just make internet on or internet off. And for this, it would - check if usb is plugged and works - use usb - check if a known wifi (whom I have password) network is usable - use it - check if an open wifi network is usable - use it [ add any way to connect here (bluetooth?) ] - else connect to gprs order should be configurable. for each connection, there would be parameters : - ip (static or dhcp) - nameserver - gateway - proxy (http / https / ftp ...) - proxy type (transparent or not) - user/password for proxy - may be max upload/download bandwith - may be firewall rules - ... an applet would just say : internet : off or internet : on if you click on it, it would display connection information and a [dis]connect button. and, finally, it would - add an iptable to use the proxy transparently if supported - but https wouldn't work. - put proxy information somewhere in a file so applications use it and use the correct way to connect to internet (instead of the proxy). This way, https would work also. Last : may be it could connect to internet transparently if needed by an application. An alert box then appear uring connection and disappear wen don, returning to the application. Of course, each connection profile can say if it can be used automatically : I don't necessarely need that my gprs connection is used if I don't have an ulimited plan.

Re: Fast questions (email, GPRS, WiFi...)
After a while it became clear it was only reproducible when my neo can visibly
see my router. When there's concrete in between it doesn't work for my neo.
My notebook on the other hand reports 60% signal strength and can connect in
seconds.
When udhcpc is sending discovers I can see on my router it is receiving
these discovers and is assigning my neo an ip. Unfortunatly udhcpc keeps
sending discovers as if it doesn't hear my router's respons.
Sometimes udhcpc outputs a couple of this lines Sending select for
192.168.1.92 At these moments I can see on my router the lease time for
that ip is forever. But after udhcpc outputted a couple of these lines it
reverts to sending discovers.
When I leave udhcpc running for like 10 minutes it finally also receives a
lease time which is quite forever (140773632 seconds). My router reports it
as forever.
Here's my iwconfig output if it can be of any use:

While udhcpc is sending discovers I can see my router is leasing my neo a
valid ip for 60 seconds each sending discover.
Sometimes, in very rare cases I can get a decent lease. But that is not
reproducible. I think it's happened three times to me the last three days.
Anyone knows how I could get an IP reliably?

Re: Fast questions (email, GPRS, WiFi...)
Make sure you do ifdown usb0 before ifup eth0
Then if dhcp does not get a lease first time through (which for me is about
50/50)
then you can do this from the console which always gets the lease for me.
udhcpc eth0
After that wifi should work.

It's also worth using wpa_cli to see whether wpa_supplicant it associating

Re: Fast questions (email, GPRS, WiFi...)
Is it possible to leave the USB connection up, so you can work on the Freerunner via ssh, and at the same time bring up the WIFI? sure -- just have wifi and usb0 on different networks (e.g. 192.168.0.0/24 for usb and 192.168.1.0/24 for wifi). the only glitch might come if you are going to access internet and by default usb0 sets up itself as a gateway interface -- so just remove it from the route or directly from usb0 definition in interfaces -- Yaroslav Halchenko Research Assistant, Psychology Department, Rutgers-Newark Student Ph.D. @ CS Dept.

With udhcpc eth0 immediatly after ifup eth0 I seem to get an IP

planning to that _after_ I got an IP on eth0. Thanks for the help!

Re: Fast questions (email, GPRS, WiFi...)
I've been trying for several hours to get wifi working, it never seems to connect although it can see my station. I tried this too as it makes sense to turn off usb0, but that didn't seem to work either, I wrote this script to make it easy from console (I also tried ifconfig usb0 down) ifdown usb0 wpa_supplicant -ieth0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -B sleep 10 udhcpc eth0 I have a similar issue too. wpa_supplicant.conf didn't worked for me at all. Using iwconfig eth0 essid wep_ap key 128_bit_key_in_hex doesn't associate with my access point. I found a small workaround for this: iwconfig eth0 key . and after that iwconfig eth0 essid That connected me to the ap. udhcpd doesn't work for me. sending discover over lan the dhcpd on a server didn't see that. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Fast questions (email, GPRS, WiFi...)
There is an unofficial set of instructions at: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/GTA02_wlan I've added the wpa-conf line to /etc/network/interfaces and it usually works, with the caveats at the bottom of that page, and so long as I've dropped usb0 or otherwise sorted the routing.

Although it says encryption key off, but I presume wpa_supplicant is handling that. says here, too. but since my ap does only wpa and the fr can reach inet it's probably only cosmetic. So its connected to my access point, and I turned off eth0, but I cannot ping the wireless, either it's a typo or a blunder -- eth0 _is_ the wireless. if you turn off eth0, wlan is gone. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Fast questions (email, GPRS, WiFi...)
Hi all, My FR is here! :) The 8GB Sandisk card works flawlessly. Now a few simple questions: - Is there any UI to conect using WiFi? and with GPRS? - Is network-manager been ported? - The NM backend? - Anybody is doing an UI for this? - Can I help? [1] - Is there any email client for OpenMoko? - With special features like vibrate on new mail? - Can I help? [1] - [Important] As I understand FSO will be the backend and ASU the frontend. Is there any image that I can flash in my FR that uses ASU over FSO? (In the wiki I've read about Stable Hybrid but there's no images). Thanks! [1] I've knowledge of C GTK.

Re: Fast questions (email, GPRS, WiFi...)
I do this: ifdown eth0 iwconfig eth0 essid TheEssid ifup eth0 ifdown usb0 I haven't setup wpa or even wep though... - What does iwconfig say before you do udhcpc? Did the card associate with the access point (non-zero link quality)? Did the card discover the access points MAC address? - What does ifconfig -a say after udhcpc? route -n? -Rusty Jim Morris wrote: ian douglas wrote: I havne't seen any wifi UI applicaiton yet.

I've been trying for several hours to get wifi working, it never seems to connect although it can see my station. I tried this too as it makes sense to turn off usb0, but that didn't seem to work either, I wrote this script to make it easy from console (I also tried ifconfig usb0 down) ifdown usb0 wpa_supplicant -ieth0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -B sleep 10 udhcpc eth0 Any other ideas?
