Re: Network Manager

2008-03-31 Thread Alex Zhang

Hi Tick,


In fact we have a project doing such thing, and we are very welcome 
you join us. :D


Cool! Will be great to share experience with you.

The project is http://projects.openmoko.org/projects/enlazar/


I think it's easy to develop a daemon talking with NM to manage the 
networks. But most important thing is to merge NM into our devices, 
because NM depends on many packages like: libnl, hal, udev, dhclient, 
wpa_supplicant ...

In addition, though NM-0.7 has a clear framework, but it's not ready ATM :(

Anyway, glad to see you're starting such project, Hope can share some 
idea with you :)


Cheers,
Alex

I remember seeing some research results about this a few years back. 
Using a phone with accelerometers they managed to identify different 
persons from their walk with about a 90% accuracy IIRC. So it seems to 
be completely feasible, but I doubt that it's trivial.

 Hi All,
 
 As we know, there are many ways to access Internet in GTA02:
   - wired:usbnet
   - wireless:wifi, bluetooth
   - GSM
 
 Is there any daemon or framework OM uses to manage these networks as 
 NetworkManager on PC right now?
 
 We are developing a portable media device with usbnet  wifi support, I 
 am planning to use NM-0.7 or to develop a daemon for managing the networks.
 
 Any idea or comments?

Sure, it's nice to ear from that kind of project.

An feature that would be nice is roaming. Imagine you are using WiFi at
home and you are leaving the WiFi range.
A warning box could tell you will loose your connection and then open a
GMS (GPRS ) connexion to keep it connected.

And for business needs, a VPN manager would be very nice (OpenVPN or
OpenSWAN IPSEC based).

Thanks
