python on FR, need a little help
Hello, for my notebook I found a very good NetworkManager spare called wicd (http://wicd.sourceforge.net/), it is a python based application to handle WLAN. I am a absolute python newbie. But this little appl. is pretty nice and I want to bring it up and running on FR. First I installed python manually following packages in this order: libpython python-core python-lang python-threading libdbus python-dbus python-math libcrypto libssl python-io python-re python-stringold python-logging bzip2 python-misc python-pycairo python-pygobject python-shell python-pygtk python-fcntl python-codecs python-pickle python-subprocesses python-threading python-xml Allways the latest version from scaredyCat (http://buildhost.automated.it/OM2007.2/packages/armv4t/). I am able to enter 'python' in terminal and I get a valid answer. Then I copied all files from wicd to there locations, replaced two PNG files by the original one from pixmaps. After a reboot I see the appl. at the list of appl.. But I could not start the appl. :-(. The dmesg shows me just an old entry, so I don't know why the appl. ist not starting. Where can I find some hints about the reasons/issues/problems etc.? Is any python/FR guru able to give me a little help? -- mfg/br, christian Flurstraße 14 29640 Schneverdingen Germany E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Telefon: +49 5193 97 14 95 Mobile: +49 171 357 59 57 http://wesselch.homelinux.org signature.asc Description: Dies ist ein digital signierter Nachrichtenteil ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: python on FR, need a little help
After the first start I got some new conf files in /opt/wicd/data/ 1. manager-settings.conf 2. wired-settings.conf 3. wireless-settings.conf Inside [1] I changed the wireless-interface to eth0 und the wired-interface to usb0. After restart of daemon and gui now I see the WLAN and LAN around FR. Just the handling is sad, the display is not reacting about the clicks. So I can't configure any WLAN. I will research further on, maybe some python guy can help. christian Am Montag, den 11.08.2008, 17:58 +0200 schrieb Rorschach: > What happenbs if you start wicd from the console? > > python wicd/daemon.py > python wicd/gui.py > > > > > ___ > Openmoko community mailing list > community@lists.openmoko.org > http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community -- mfg/br, christian weßel Flurstraße 14 29640 Schneverdingen Germany E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Telefon: +49 5193 97 14 95 Mobile: +49 171 357 59 57 http://wesselch.homelinux.org signature.asc Description: Dies ist ein digital signierter Nachrichtenteil ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: python on FR, need a little help
someone @irc had a look on the wicd code and told me that huge parts have to be rewritten to run it with the openmoko wicd assumes for example that a wireless interface has to be named wlan0 Christian Weßel wrote: > Am Montag, den 11.08.2008, 17:58 +0200 schrieb Rorschach: > >> What happenbs if you start wicd from the console? >> >> python wicd/daemon.py >> > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/volatile/tmp# python /opt/wicd/daemon.py/opt/wicd > wicd daemon: pid 1894 > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/volatile/tmp# lono wireless extensions. > > usb0 no wireless extensions. > > lono wireless extensions. > > usb0 no wireless extensions. > > ifconfig: SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device > None Interface doesn't support scanning. > > sh: ethtool: not found > > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/volatile/tmp# ps -ef|grep daemon > ... > root 1894 1 4 16:35 ?00:00:02 > python /opt/wicd/daemon.py > ... > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/volatile/tmp# > > >> python wicd/gui.py >> > > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/volatile/tmp# python /opt/wicd/gui.py > /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py:69: GtkWarning: > could not open display > warnings.warn(str(e), _gtk.Warning) > attempting to connect daemon... > success > starting gui.py... > > (gui.py:1911): libglade-WARNING **: Error loading image: Failed to open > file 'data/wicd.png': No such file or directory > > (gui.py:1911): libglade-WARNING **: could not convert string to type > `GdkPixbuf' for property `icon' > Segmentation fault > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/volatile/tmp# > > > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# python /opt/wicd/gui.py > attempting to connect daemon... > success > starting gui.py... > refreshing... > Number of wireless networks detected: 0 > refreshing... > Number of wireless networks detected: 0 > > The daemon seems to be running. > A gui is opened with a three items on top (Network, Disconnect, Refresh) > and the message 'No wireless networks found.' in the middle of the > screen. > At the same time at my ssh console I receive 'ifconfig: none: error > fetching interface information: Device not found' each half second. > Before that I saw 'sh: ethtool: not found'. > > > > ___ > Openmoko community mailing list > community@lists.openmoko.org > http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community > ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

I got the latest version wicd-1.5.1 and now I am discussing with the developers about a problem by configuration/installation of wicd. I will keep the community informed. -- mfg/br, christian Flurstraße 14 29640 Schneverdingen Germany E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Telefon: +49 5193 97 14 95 Mobile: +49 171 357 59 57 http://wesselch.homelinux.org signature.asc Description: Dies ist ein digital signierter Nachrichtenteil ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
