I don't know the mechanics of Omnimaga and if editing a message bumps a topic. So just in case...

So... Got the hub, but the Ethernet adapter is still not working, not even on my Windows 7 computer...
Does anyone know of a reliable Ethernet adapter for sale somewhere?

I don't want to purchase something that is going to be just another dead end.

EDIT: Purchased a Ethernet adapter on E-bay, should be here in a few days... (Think it was D-Link)

EDIT 2: This will likely (and hopefully) be the last technical assistance I request on this issue... I got the Ethernet adapter today, and it runs fine, as in it connects, is recognized, and transfers data.
However, when I run links I cannot navigate to www.google.com, I can only reach 192.168.0.1 (my router) and even then all it shows is something like "quest modem configuration".

To get this to work as it currently is I added the following to /etc/network/interfaces:

Code: [Select]
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.45
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.1
Any ideas. I know 192.168.0.1 is the router address for wireless access, is there a different method to connect with Ethernet?

Thanks, I have purchased a hub and it should be here sometime after the 1st.

Exactly, plus COMP could be replaced by a USB charger.

One more question before I make a hub purchase: What is the largest number of ports supported (or recommended) for Linux?
I'd like to get one with more than four and have seen some with ten, but I wanted to make sure something like that would work.

??? Most of the hubs I'm seeing have a round plug as the end of the AC adapter, not a USB plug...

Do you know of a USB port which has a power input through a USB type cable? (so you could attach it to either a USB wall charger or a computer to power it)

Kernel Panic if I boot with the adapter plugged in, sda1 has a I/O error if I plug it in later. (Could the fact that I don't yet have a powered hub cause the issue?)
The manufacturer is one I've never heard of: SMC Networking. Model #: SMC2208USB/ETH. It came with a driver disk, but it only has Windows XP drivers (and I would guess I can't use those...)

EDIT: The device uses 3.3v, how much can the Calculator support on its own?

I bought a USB to Ethernet adapter, but Linux crashed each time, what manufacturer should I use?

I have an old Qwest modem and a new Quest modem. The old one has a USB port while the new one does not.
I received the new one when I moved and was told to use it instead.

Is this possible:

Nspire USB ---> Old Qwest USB, Old Qwest Ethernet out to New Qwest Ethernet out, New Qwest to internet.
Basically, can the Old Qwest Ethernet be forced to act as an in port, connecting the Nspire to the New Qwest?

Or, can the Old Qwest device still connect to the internet, even though I'm supposed to use the new one?

EDIT: How exactly are people connecting to the internet. E.g. what device, what company, etc...

So what does this mean in the availability of compiled (or ready to be compiled) programs? I assume not all the packages are available for the CX.

Are you able to boot directly to the flash drive?

Yes that happened to me when I mounted it. What device file did you use?

When you plug in the USB does it come up with several debug messages.
To mount the flash drive type "mount /dev/[either sda or sda1] /mnt".
You can replace "/mnt" with an existing folder as the destination.
You should then be able to cd to the directory and view files.
What method are you currently using?

Take out the battery, I've had to do that many times.

By rootfs do you mean the USB drive?
You may want to use the initrd and try to mount the USB flash drive in there, then use the device that works to boot (sda, sda1, ...) in your boot script.
Make sure to connect the OTG cable to the calculator before starting the bootloader.

@Naruto: Try doing the following:

1. Rename your "linux" folder to "linux old"
2. Create a new "linux" folder
3. Download all the files needed to run Linux (Do not use any of the ones you already have)
4. Place them in the new "linux" folder and try booting linux (use a initrd first to make sure it works)

This worked in my case.
