 Anyone having the same issue out there? Any fix around? :)

I personally use the following script to connect to WiFi. If you replace
ESSID and PASSWORD it might help you.


killall dhclient
killall wpa_supplicant
om wifi power 0
sleep 1
om wifi power 1
sleep 1
om wifi maxperf wlan 1
sleep 1
/sbin/wpa_supplicant -B -s -P /var/run/wpa_supplicant.wlan.pid -i wlan -D  wext 
-t -ddd -C /var/run/wpa_supplicant
sleep 4
wpa_cli -p /var/run/wpa_supplicant -i wlan add_network
wpa_cli -p /var/run/wpa_supplicant -i wlan set_network 0 ssid \ESSID\
wpa_cli -p /var/run/wpa_supplicant -i wlan set_network 0 psk \PASSWORD\
wpa_cli -p /var/run/wpa_supplicant -i wlan enable_network 0
sleep 8
dhclient -d wlan

Oh and you also might want to replace wlan with eth0 or whatever you
call your wifi interface.

Re: GTA04_This is my Fantasy

2012-04-21 Thread Lionel Broche
I am not a specialist and I am not sure to understand what you mean by
'boot linux from any desktop', but I have been experimenting remote
connections lately so my results may interest you.

The idea of remote connection is that you boot your device normally (the
client), and access a remote computer (the host) once the operating system
is running on the client. Usually you only need a very light operating
system so the client machine does not need to be powerful.

I have been using a letux 400 (very small device, 2Gb Flash drive, rather
slow) as a client to connect to my home computer. Since a letux is (really)
not powerful, I dropped the idea of using a full remote desktop but this is
likely to be possible on the GTA04 (see Vino, Remmina and others for remote
desktop applications). Instead of that, I opened some X windows directly
via ssh (use the -X option when you connect with ssh, there is a bit of
fidling around with keys and host authoring). This technique allows you to
control the GUI of a host from a light remote client.

In final I could run some large applications (gimp, blender...) on my letux
and to use them just as if I was using my home computer. Only the GUI of
the application selected appeared on the screen.

I am not sure if that is what you want to do. I can give more details if
you need.

 Just so everyone knows: I am not a programmer (just a dreamer), with no

 you (the community) to decide.

 I was thinking it would be cool if my imaginary cell phone (I also dream
 of one day owning one) had the capabilities to boot linux from any desktop,
 via USB, provided it's support. This would grant me access to large
 programs such as CAD software, Inventor/AutoCAD, music/movies/photos, from
 where ever a desktop computer was available (BIOS Mooch).

 I would imagine the phones would need to be outfitted with a small solid
 state hard drive (at least 60 gb), and it would be nice if it had the
 ability to share media files (music) between QTmoko and Ubuntu (maybe?).

 Has anyone ever fantasized about this?
 Is it feasible? or Possible?

Thanks Timo, I'm doing something similar while I don't get the fancy qt
interface working. I guess this regression wont be hard to fix once the
(almost) same code used to work well in previous versions. I'll try to find
some time for it.

Hi,
i think i noticed it too. It's probably related to rework of the wifi scan 
dialog. I will take a look at it.
