issues

witekjeden : Ha, so the 'old' version of pgprs works ? But the new 'improved' version does not ? I am planning an update to T-NOP, perhaps I should revert pgprs ? (unless the original author can fix the new version). number698 : I can appreciate that there are a lot of packages to sift through to r...

gprs-connect

witekjeden : I don't have a GPRS modem so I can't test, but I think you are right, there is a flaw in the pgprs-connect script. I believe that line 6 should have an & on the end before the #, i.e . /etc/ppp/gprs.conf & #130812... Attached is the corrected script, just unzip and copy to /usr/...

compile failed

Mavrothal,

Did you recompile Glib ? The glib with Precise is not compiled with gvfs support.

WiFi does not connect automatically on reboot

WiFi works fine on several computers / wifi cards I have tried. However when frugal installed on a USB stick the WiFi is not reconnected at boot up.
It fails to find a live connection. I tried playing with some of the sleep timings in the rc.d/network script but no joy. :cry:

screen grab

The mtpaintsnapshot tool captures the menu. It is already in NOP but does not have a menu entry. Just type mtpaintsnapshot.sh in the terminal.

acx driver for wary 5.1.1 (kernel 2.6.32.28)

The old acx driver has not been updated since 2006 and did not appear to work with newer kernels. I found a patch on the Karmic Ubuntu forum and thought I would try in Wary 5.1.1. To my surprise it actually worked !

Here is the patched source code and pet file.
This driver is for WEP encryption only.
