Probably some C++ will have to be involved, we have to: -Detect these devices -Know that these devices talk samba -Know the IP we should talk to Detecting and be possibly handled either by adding the device to MPI [1] or udev rule (perhaps udev will be better). In MPI or Udev rule we should indicate that they use samba, somehow. Knowing the IP gets a little bit more tricky, I guess that NetworkManager should get the ip automatically, the question is how to get it (we need the gateway). I have a playbook without BB10, pluging it only produces a CD (which we do not seem to support). Will investigate further in a week. Cheerz. _______________________________________________ Kde-hardware-devel mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-hardware-devel
