2009/12/24 Ben Thompson b...@york.ac.uk I tried NWA just now on SHR-U and it looks good but it made a lot of white noise come out of the speakers when it got an IP address. I tried it too and it seems really good. You can turn off the noise in .nwa.conf ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

reliable wifi gui for SHR
Hi, What's the most reliable wifi utility nowadays on SHR? I tried mokonnect, but it can't see any networks, although 'iwlist scan' shows them properly. Is there any other tool that will let me: -select a hotspot -type the password -connect -disconnect and turn off wifi (in such a way that the battery isn't drained). Thanks!

Michal Hi, wpa-gui - http://hostap.epitest.fi/wpa_supplicant/ I use wpa_supplicant roaming mode and deactivated eth0 for conman. WiFi config is saved in wpa_supplicant.conf and can be edited via wpa-gui from wpa_supplicant project. You can find my bitbake recipe for wpa-gui here [1] and a package here [2]. There are also my changed files in wpa-roaming.tar and and a README in [2]. I have been using this setup for months now with connections to WPA(2) PSK, WEP and unencrypted networks with dhcp and static IP. You then just need to switch WiFi on and off in SHR settings then udev and wpa_supplicant will do the rest :) Cheers, Christian [1] http://git.senfdax.de/?p=oe_recipes;a=tree;f=wpa-supplicant;h=bb7d494f16e6edff316775cef1d3b1a8ad3c6f90;hb=HEAD [2] http://openmoko.senfdax.de/shr-new-unstable/ ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: reliable wifi gui for SHR
My biggest problem with SHR is the settings dialog appears to be largely non-functional for most things I try to do. Info on how to control the state of the WiFi radio without using the settings application would be a big help to me. I am not much of a python person, but just being able to find the scripts for the settings modules would probably help. Any info? Christian Rüb wrote: On Wednesday, 23.
