Hi!
I would like to use my freerunner in a plugplay mode. Just attach to the

I've it working on leny with the following configs:
on /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules I force the frerruner to be usb0

You have to setup dhcp server on your freerunner. E.g. on debian: Seems like a lot of effort, I find it easier to set up static 192.168.0.200 for eth1 on the computer. This avoids running a dhcp server on the rather limited phone. Still, the dhcp server may be easier if you regularly connect to many different computers.

udev rule for the freerunner or make usb networking enduser friendly
Hi! I would like to use my freerunner in a plugplay mode. Just attach to the computer, and simply ssh in using terminal or nautilus. Currently 2 things break the above experience: 1. I need to issue manually the following command: sudo ip address add 192.168.0.200/24 dev eth3 If you use two freerunner, it will get different ethX interface (eth2 vs. eth3) which is rather annoying. There is ifrename (http://linux.die.net/man/8/ifrename), which could fix it. 2. After some seconds (30-40 sec) the connection is broken. I need to reissue the above command, and after it does not break anymore. I highly suspect Networkmanager is f*cking with me. So the question is, can it be written an udev rule, which do the above things automatically, and also stop disconnecting the freerunner? The current way is really hard to teach for a nonexperienced user (ie. gf), how to upload musics to the music player device.;-\ Best regards, Laszlo ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Really, the way you propose is wrong, you need to use your OS's facilities, all modern distros support proper hotplug and configuring of network devices. -- Be free, use free (http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html) software! mailto:fercer...@gmail.com ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

You have to setup dhcp server on your freerunner. E.g. on debian:
apt-get install dhcp3-server
edit dhcp server configuration:
nano /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf
and place something like this there:
option domain-name-servers 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220;
option routers 192.168.0.202;
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option routers 192.168.0.1;
# Unknown clients get this pool.
pool {
#option domain-name-servers bogus.example.com;
max-lease-time 7200;
range 192.168.0.200 192.168.0.201;
allow unknown clients;
}
}
Now restart dhcps server:
/etc/init.d/dhcp3-server restart
plug your Freerunner and NetworkManager should always assign the right
IP address.

Radek
