Wish List

[WlanMan]

Hi

As i think adding whishes to the last custom firmware thread is no good, i add a whishlist here at least for what i think could be nice.

• Syslog to Harddisk - Adding an Option to write the syslog (or Remoute) somewhere on /tmp/harddisk rather then ramdisk. If i remember right, HD gets mounted after syslog start, but maybe you see a possibility to do this oleg ?
• VPN Support by phedny
• Newer PWCx Driver vor Philips Cam´s High Resolution Mode
• Option to prevent LPR and/or Jetdirekt Printing startup at boottime.

Well if you put this script in post-mount:

#!/bin/sh  
cat /tmp/syslog.log >> /tmp/harddisk/syslog.log
killall syslogd  
syslogd -m 0 -O /tmp/harddisk/syslog.log -S -l 7

This is more or less how Oleg would have to do it anyway if you don't want to loose all messages before harddisk is mounted. Only problem is that you get two " syslogd started:"-messages.. But I guess you can propably live with that. (If you want to overwrite syslog on reboot remove one > in second line.)

S.

PS: How does the syslog get rotated, by the way? Any one know?

Also, you say 'Whishlist', but I only see one wish. Where's the rest ?

I hope others will add their wishes here.

As for syslog - use unslung syslog_ng package, it's much more powerful, than busybox syslog.

I wish there would be an admin website to config all my Unslung packages.

Oh, wait, I'm allready working on that! First release scheduled somewhere in the next 2 weeks.

WLanMan: Are you able to keep your first post upto-date with the wishes of others? That way there's a nice list in one place.

Sure i will, but i need some sort of minimal admin then ... what would be a good idea anyway

I wish "screen". It's terminal manager with many useful functions.
I don't know how to compile it cos I'am linux newbie.

Hi, do you think it would be possible to include a feature, which would enable bandwidth management only at certain times of a day? I am talking about something similiar, which already works for internet firewall. I think it would be much more , because I (and I suppose so do others) need to protect my network with firewall all the time but I need to restrict download and upload speeds only when I need to browse or get my mail or something alike. What do you think about it?

You could achive that using a scheduler (cron) and the Wondershaper (wshaper) script. Search here on this forum and Google for info on cron and this forum for howto use the Wondershaper script.

My current wish is for AAC support, to extend http://www.wl500g.info/showpost.php?...5&postcount=32 to support all common audio formats. Something like LAMIP ipkg would be nice

[Elephantik]

It would be great to have support of libstdc++. Not only that a few good packages depend on it (e.g. python) but also to be able to run own C++ programs.

[Jean-Fabrice]

here is what i wish:

newer kernel;
cut, find, uname, who, finger and morebinaries;
bash shell by default;

thanx

cut, find, uname are present in busybox optware
uname is also present in coreutils optware
who is present in coreutils optware
bash is present in bash optware

any reason for not using theses packages ?

The list at http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/unslung/wl500g/ is quite impressive, however I'm still missing a DC++ hub software like OpenDCHub. Is this Overkill for the WL500g or could somebody provide me with binaries?
