Re: Ethernet over USB and UDEV

2009-05-04 Thread Esben Stien
Mikko Rauhala mjrau...@cc.helsinki.fi writes:

 the gadget would be in control and a well-behaved gadget could have
 a constant MAC (or not, as it happens, but this wouldn't be a
 general property of Ethernet over USB devices).

Well, it is a general problem, because it's something outside the
gadget that sets this MAC address. In the case of Neo, it is Neo
itself that would set the MAC address for its Ethernet over USB
interface.

It is a general problem and obviously broken by design, if you ask
me. We have no way to know what you've just plugged into your
computer.

If you got two Host to Host cables, there is no way to assign a
specific MAC address to either of them that would survive a computer
reboot.

With a Neo, you could program individually all your devices to a
different static MAC address, but this would not work with stuff like
Host to Host cables.

This is because such a device itself has no way to set its own MAC
address. Additionally, because the OS can't identify the device
uniquely, it cannot assign it a MAC address that would be consistent
every time you plug it in.

Ethernet over USB and UDEV

2009-04-30 Thread Esben Stien
Trying to create a persistent configuration for such devices, that
utilize Ethernet over USB, I'm stuck.

Devices like these got no MAC address, apparently. 

Is there anything that would uniquely identify such a device?

The name is pretty unique, but this is shared between all similar devices. 

Any pointers how to solve this?.

Re: [HW] SIM card mount could use redesign (or better docs)

 I'd like to suggest that the cover for the SIM card gets overhauled,

Maybe this is related to the fried FR reported some days ago;). It
sure is some weak piece of mechanical configuration for the SIM and SD
card. How about doing it in strong steel, military grade field use;).

Re: [fso m3] vibrate over and over

2008-09-20 Thread Esben Stien
Ian [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 to shut off the vibrator without rebooting you can also do: 
 echo 0  
 /sys/devices/platform/neo1973-vibrator.0/leds/neo1973:vibrator/brightness

This is incorrect. You're referring to the case where the vibrator is
continuously on, but this was not the OP case. 

He's referring to when the phone is vibrating with pulses. This is a
chip feature where you program it to pulsate. This is done by zhone
and if zhone dies, it keeps pulsating. 

The way to turn it off is: 

echo none  /sys/class/leds/neo1973:vibrator/trigger

For reference, the way to turn it on, is: 

echo timer  /sys/class/leds/neo1973:vibrator/trigger
echo 300  /sys/class/leds/neo1973:vibrator/delay_on
echo 700  /sys/class/leds/neo1973:vibrator/delay_off

Someone registered should put this in the wiki.

Re: Why is /etc/resolv.conf on tmpfs?

2008-08-09 Thread Esben Stien
Dirk Bergstrom [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 I thought that resolv.conf was getting wiped out at every boot

It is and it should be. Use resolveconf.

/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head is the header file for the dynamic
generation. Leave this alone.

/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base is the meat of the file, or the
middle. Define your nameservers here using this syntax: nameserver
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the ip of your nameserver.

/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/tail is the ending of this file. Leave
this one alone too.

/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/original is the original configuration
of the file. These isn't anything you have to do for this file.

After you have applied your changes, but before you restart your
network service, run this command:

sudo resolvconf -u

This will run the script and update your /etc/resolv.conf file. This
apparently should happen every time the machine boots.
