Wiki Instructions: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/GPRS#Option_1:_With_GSM_multiplexing_and_with_a_GUI Finally got this GPRS sort of working :-) I put together a shell script of the steps I've taken to get this far. A lot of issues I had involved installing from various repositories. I basically add the angstrom repository for gsm0710muxd and then remove it again for all the rest. Now I can do a "gprson" and "gprsoff" and I get a connection but the "service" GUI does not open and just pops up an error screen and states that it's writing a log file to /home/root/Services.log but it does not do that at all. I can't see an error message on logread either. I might look into it but I'm just happy to have an IP address and I'll rig up a desktop file for "gprson" and "gprsoff" Thanks for all your pointers along the way -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFI/atsXlbjSJ5n4BARAmFhAKCYbX91Ja42aTR42QrAoIvgg/l57wCgytNW zwXg6fbZK8kGD3TrjTJZ5KE= =2n+j -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
