It _used_ to be generated during the OOB run. Now it is build during the kernel build. This makes things rather tricky -- currently to get a kernel driver param such as this one you need to install it _on the machine where you build your kernel rpm_. This is at best awkward -- the kernel build environment better be a chroot :-/ So currently Ajay will need to rebuild the kernel rpm in a chroot where he has installed that libertas.conf he desires. Luckily, we don' t mess with this too much. At some point however, I hope that hacking in the initrd gets a bit more practical. cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- Software Architect - OLPC - 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

The only thing left to get lejos working was adjusting the dev permissions (would be good to add a general udev rule I guess) and installing java. My son just made the RCX display "Hello world" :) Thanks all, and particularly Paul! - Bert - ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
Re: [Sugar-devel] Wanting to know a bit of (NetworkManager) workflow upon resume-from-suspend
Thanks Martin and Jerry. I followed the following steps :: a) Listed "lsinitrd /boot/initrd.img". It did not show any "/etc/modprobe.d/libertas.conf". b) Extracted "/boot/initrd.img" into a temporary folder. Obviously, no "/etc/modprobe.d/libertas.conf" was seen. c) Generated the required "/etc/modprobe.d/libertas.conf" with the content "options libertas libertas_disablemesh=1" in the tmp folder. d) Re-compressed the temp-folder to "/boot/initrd.img". e) Listed "lsinitrd /boot/initrd.img". This time, "/etc/modprobe.d/libertas.conf" was listed. f) Rebooted XO-1. g) Mesh-icons were still observed :( h) Note that I did this, without OOB (i.e. I was just wanting to test that whether this would work at all). I guess that there is something else we might be missing. So, I think that the only solution left now, is to put the "rmmod/modprobe" hack in olpc-configure. Would it be an acceptable upstream solution (the change in olpc-utils) ? Martin (Langhoff) / Daniel (Drake) ? Looking forward to comments and replies.
