I think gcc/uclibc toolchain for initfs development would qualify but it is much worse here, we even don't have the tool (despite GPL) :-( https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3373 Good point and there actually are even more closed tools or tools that we do not publish in maemo.org but we use internally to develop certain components (especially for those that are very close to the HW as they may require HW vendor toolchain to be used). When I said that we do not have other closed tools in maemo than flasher I ment tools that we publish in maemo.org. For initfs development (and development of some very hw related components like DSP, codecs, driverts,...) these have never been supported officially in maemo and so we have not released toolchain for them either. There were plan to start supporting initfs development as we already support development of rootfs components and kernel/kernel modules but as Fremantle does not have initfs anymore these plans were not implemented. And I do not belive we have any plans to release toolchain for initfs development for Diablo anymore.

Hi, I'm certainly far from being a licensing expert. But there is a paragraph on a page at the busybox site which does make it clear wrt busybox and releasing source: http://www.busybox.net/license.html I see a /mnt/initfs/bin/busybox but I don't see the source available for the busybox 1.00 used in the initfs. But Mohammed's reply on the bug in question does give me a little more hope.

Let's move detailed discussion back to the bug report. Quick and hopefully correct summary is that Nokia is distributing modified uclibc (EABI patched 0.9.28) so we should get at least exact uclibc sources used for building initfs. That is indeed enough to satisfy GPL and also to close the bug report since we can rebuild gcc with such uclibc and make the toolchain ourselves. uclibc is IMO really the tricky part, PCMIIAW but 0.9.28 does not support EABI out of box, there are several (maybe incomplete) patches to add EABI support to 0.9.28 mentioned in uclibc mailing list so it is quite hard to decide which specific version (if any) went into the binary which is distributed with the tablets. The original request is for toolchain binary since my idea was that it is easier for both sides (the binary exists inside Nokia - name was mentioned is OS2007 hacker edition guide, and hopefully there is no reason to keep the sources or binaries of gcc closed).

iptable_nat modules problem with N810 (latest diablo)?
Hi, I am trying to share internet from maemo device to host PC through USB or bluetooth. For that, i am using iptable_nat modules following the tips described here: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=19035. After install the iptable_nat modules and iptable-ext package, i tryed to configure the masquerading with the following commands: iptables --flush -t nat echo 1 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE -s 192.168.2.0/24 The iptables rules are there: Nokia-N810-43-7:~# iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination ACCEPT 0-- anywhere anywhere Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Nokia-N810-43-7:~# iptables -t nat -L Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination MASQUERADE 0-- 192.168.2.0/24 anywhere Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination The network (ip and route) is configured correctlly (both maemo device and host PC), but i can not share internet from maemo device to host PC. With the same configuration i can share internet from host PC to maemo device. Anybody got internet shared from maemo device to host PC? Am I missing some step? I also tryed to recompile the iptable_nat modules but no success.

En/na Andre Rodrigues ha escrit: Anybody got internet shared from maemo device to host PC? Am I missing some step? I also tryed to recompile the iptable_nat modules but no success. I tried it but without using iptables: using openssh as a socks proxy. If you have the openssh server installed and running on the tablet, from the host pc you can ssh into the tablet this way: ssh -D 6969 tablet.address then on the host configure your applications to use a socks5 proxy at localhost:6969 (you can use tsocks for applications that don't support socks5 directly). If the host pc is running windows, you can use putty, in the ssh tunnels panel add a tunnel with the Dynamic option set. It's not as transparent as setting up nat on the tablet but it works.

Hi Luca, I am implementing a module of Maemo Pc-Connectivity Project. So, it would be nice if the configuration is transparent as much as possible (it was why i choose nat).
