Re: NeoFreerunner and MacOSX?
Is there a difference in perfomance with connecting it with OSX contra connecting it with a Linux-dist? Just curious. I find the osx usb driver to be quite flaky. I think I have 10.4. I regularly have to reboot my macbook now, where as I used to go months between reboots. I'm using the AJZaurusUSB on Leopard (10.5.4) and I find that I have to make *sure* that I manually administer the device in order for my system to maintain stability - i.e., when I want to reboot the Freerunner, or disconnect it from the USB cable, I must make sure that 1) Internet Sharing is off for the USB ethernet device of the Freerunner, and 2) the network device is removed from the Net Pref list, manually as well. If I do not do both of these things before disconnecting the Freerunner, I have to reboot my machine to use the Freerunner again - either I don't get a network connection subsequently, or worse: my system hangs hard. If I do these things myself before disconnecting/ rebooting the Freerunner, then things go smoothly .. ; -- Jay Vaughan ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

NeoFreerunner and MacOSX?
Hey everybody I have seen (In the Wiki) that it should be possible and that it should be quite easy to administrate (Webacces, package mangement etc.) the Neo Freerunner though the MacOSX Leopard. I was just wondering if anyone on this list has experience with this combination and how difficult it is. I can see that handheld-linux.com, has some software that is available, but is these necessary to make these two work together?

RE: NeoFreerunner and MacOSX?
I currently have mine working(OSX 10.5.x) and here is quick down and dirty process it took to complete. I am sure there are many ways to make this successful. Power up FR and connect via USB Download the lastest AjZaurus USB Drivers and install them.( http://www.dsitri.de/wiki.php?page=AJZaurusUSB ) The 10.4 version will work with 10.5 After install reboot laptop Enter system preferences - network - select en2(It should be connected) Now configure the interface for IP 192.168.0.200 and enter your router(GW) for your default on your laptop. Reboot laptop Now you should be able to connect via ssh from laptop to FR. Enter system preferences - share and select internet option on the left side of the window. It will then show in the window to the right the en2 interface. Place a check mark in the box and make sure there is a check mark in the internet box also. On the FR run the command route Scp /etc/resolv.conf from the laptop to /etc/resolv.conf of the FR. You now will be surfing through the laptop. Keep in mind that you will need to scp /etc/resolv.conf each time after reboot of the FR unless you take some other measures. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ole Holm Frandsen Sent: Friday, July 25, 2008 11:42 AM To: List for Openmoko community discussion Subject: NeoFreerunner and MacOSX?

Re: NeoFreerunner and MacOSX?
_Thank you_ very much, for the walk through McCreery. It seems thats it rather straight through to make it work . Now there is not much which is preventing me from buying the Phone. So thanks again.

RE: NeoFreerunner and MacOSX?
I really can't say because I don't have any personal linux systems outside of work. I plan on installing linux on an older laptop soon so I can have dedicated dev machine for the FR. I have been having issues with getting my MAC ready for flash update, but it mostly has been finding enough time to dink with it. Next task is getting the phone operational. I am one of the unfortunate ones with a SIM that can't be read. :( -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ole Holm Frandsen Sent: Friday, July 25, 2008 12:38 PM To: List for Openmoko community discussion Subject: Re: NeoFreerunner and MacOSX? _Thank you_ very much, for the walk through McCreery.
