I'd say you are spot on, there's no connectivity to the internet. I'd recommend standard troubleshooting (nslookup/traceroute/ping) but it likely to be your resolv.conf. udhcpc alters /var/run/resolv.conf ... so I wouldn't suggest removing the symlink, as a continually changing value should not be written to flash. I'd script something up to edit /var/run/resolv.conf or for now just change it manually. If you're not network hopping then /etc/resolv.conf is a viable alternative but be aware that you will be breaking typical embedded system operation, as in, other programs will be altering /var/run/resolv.conf when setting the network parameters ... well I hope :S Sarton _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
