**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Dec 18 02:59:56 2005 Dec 18 04:46:52 hi Dec 18 04:57:15 ho ho ho Dec 18 14:34:12 hi can anyone tell me how to start a kill -1 for all users? Dec 18 14:43:41 kami22 kill -HUP -1 should work, but this is rtfm Dec 18 22:38:57 anyone know about adding a wifi interface to openslug? Dec 18 22:40:07 I've not been having much luck. I need to use it as the only network interface so it needs to come up automatically. Dec 18 22:41:03 zd1211 is supposed to work Dec 18 22:43:38 I have the zd1211. It does sort of work but I haven't been able to do a `ifconfig eth0 down` yet without locking myself out of the slug. Dec 18 22:44:28 you might want to put serial on there whilst you are setting it up Dec 18 22:44:36 Not being a debian user, it took me a while to figure out how to add stuff correctly to the /etc/network/interfaces file and correctly do the `ifconfig wlan0 up ; iwconfig wlan0 essid foobar` in that file. Dec 18 22:45:08 Once I do that, I can do an `ifup wlan0` and it sort of works (some warnings). But then I still can't actually use the interface. Dec 18 22:45:18 Who has acutally used the zd1211? Dec 18 22:46:25 dyoung, NAiL, I think Dec 18 22:46:38 NAiL, ? Dec 18 22:47:45 I just added some "install zd1211_mod" stuff to /etc/modules.conf so maybe this will get the auto ifup I'm looking for. Dec 18 22:48:06 you can do a pre-up in the interfaces file to do the same thing Dec 18 22:49:35 sure but the pre-up in interfaces is only run when the interface comes up right? I want to be able to plug in the card and have the wifi come up on its own. Dec 18 22:51:05 you want to be able to hotplug it? Dec 18 22:51:14 I added this to /etc/modprobe.conf: Dec 18 22:51:16 alias wlan0 zd1211_mod Dec 18 22:51:16 install wlan0 zd1211_mod /sbin/ifup wlan0 Dec 18 22:51:25 Yes, I want to hotplug it. Dec 18 22:51:43 ah, ok. Dec 18 22:51:53 Then in interfaces I added this: Dec 18 22:51:55 # wlan Dec 18 22:51:55 auto wlan0 Dec 18 22:51:55 iface wlan0 inet dhcp Dec 18 22:51:55 pre-up ifconfig wlan0 up Dec 18 22:51:55 pre-up iwconfig wlan0 essid ACTIONTEC Dec 18 22:51:56 address 192.168.1.78 Dec 18 22:52:02 Am I forgetting anything? Dec 18 22:52:17 There is no encryption for now. Dec 18 22:52:54 dunno - you're well ahead of my wireless knowledge now ... Dec 18 22:53:28 nope, didn't work. Dec 18 22:54:29 crap, I thought that install stuff was the way to run something when a module is installed. Dec 18 23:06:09 who is repvik? Dec 18 23:06:31 This is apparently the guy who did the actual zd1211 work for openslug. Dec 18 23:07:29 What about peteru? Dec 18 23:09:00 NAiL, Hi. Do you know how to get the zd1211 working? Dec 18 23:09:16 revik -- NAiL Dec 18 23:09:19 == that is Dec 18 23:09:26 Where it will run ifup wlan0 when I plug it in. I'm having no luck. Dec 18 23:09:38 I just figured that out, thanks. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Dec 19 02:59:58 2005
