Good to know that something works. Unfortunately i don't have the binaries anymore, since i switched to an epia based system.
Good luck,

@martins: thanks, i'll give it a try in the next days!

I'm not sure plain ext2 is supported, i remember i had some problems with that.
to format to ext3: mke2fs -j /dev/scsi...

Here's what i get in the syslog:

Sure i did. I think the problem is that i'm using an external USB to parallel adaptor, since i have the gx version without parallel port.
Also the memory mapping could be wrong, since the gx has 16...

Hi Martins,
I compiled successfully myport but oleg_fn() fails, it quits with "User defined signal 1". I'm running 1.9.2.7-7c.
I assume you're using the parport_fs mentioned above. Did you compile...

I think it's the watchdog, but i'm not sure.

Internet connection sharing would be very cool, but i think it's also harder to implement; the support for serial port profile (RFCOMM) would be also great.

Hi Oleg,
Could you compile bluetooth support directly in your firmware version?
I think bluetooth is a widely requested feature; however, most of the people steer away from it because it's a hard...

Remixme, could you post the files you compiled?

Hi,
i successfully compiled aMule 2.1.1 on a chrooted Debian following the instruction for NSLU, it took 18 hours and some rolls of swap space.
The cpu is loaded at 30% when idle, memory usage is...

As far as i understand, this feature is only for the WL-HDD, not for external USB drives.
Can anybody confirm this?

Get a USB to serial adapter, they come cheap on ebay.

Does Oleg's firmware supports any usb to parallel (printer) adapter?

Hi,
i've successfully compiled linphone (a SIP softphone) on my wl500gx. However, audio does not work; as far sa i understand ALSA drivers are needed, and Oleg's great firmware does not support...

Hi, i'm trying to save some memory in my wl500gx; how much do you estimate could be saved by removing printer drivers, usb audio, ipv6, bluetooth (if any) and others unused drivers?

Thanks for the answer! As said in the first post, i'm boooting from an external disk, so i assume i don't need /tmp anymore.

So, i've made some steps further, i removed the symlinks pointing to /tmp and its subdirectories.
Now when i boot, only some program are started, namely telnetd, klogd, syslogd, watchdog, dropbear...

Hi,
I have a wl500gx running Oleg's 1.9.2.7-7b from a USB HDD.
I was looking to unmount ramfs (/tmp) during the boot process to save some ram; however the howto i found seems not to apply to this...

Is it possible?
As far as i understand, gcj is tightly integrated with gcc; is there a way to use it with the broadcom toolchain?
Thanks,
MatB

Hi WlanMan, thanks for the answer.
I could not find any infos, so i dissected it. ;)
