Mesh network between xo1 and 1.5?
Hi, I'm trying the mesh network between xo 1 (build=802/firmware Q2E41) xo 1.5 (build=116 / firmware Q3A) but with no success, and also can't ping each other without being connected first to access point. I really hope there is a solution as I'm interested in showing the mesh network demo to a laptop presentation next week. ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

Sorry, the 1.5 machine doesn't support 802.11s yet, so it needs to use ad-hoc or managed mode to talk to an XO-1. - Chris. -- Chris Ball c...@laptop.org One Laptop Per Child ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

So either get both on the same Access Point, or, if you don't have an access point... - On the XO-1.5, use the create a new network option you have in the frame - On the XO-1, wait a few seconds - the new network (with the name of the XO-1.5 user) should appear in your network neighbourhood -- join it. cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

Have you tested this? I've just tested it and it doesn't work for me. The ad-hoc network is not shown on the neighbourhood view of the XO-1. It is, however, shown on the output of iwlist eth0 scan on the XO-1, so it is as if Sugar 0.82 is filtering it. Test configuration: two XO-1.5 build os123, one XO-1 build 802. Test method: boot each, Create new wireless network on an XO-1.5, monitor other XOs neighbourhood view. (Aside; the XO-1.5 shows an icon for olpc-mesh). -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

If Ahmed is to continue with this approach, he needs to run a F11 build (or equivalent build with a newer sugar) on the XO-1.
