Since when is trying to improve a Beta version of something, 'bitching'??

Of course it is a good thing to improve a beta version. Just in this case of the Onion project it is also a waist of time to do so.

In a good working Open-source community you get access to the full source code and the Project owner generally work hard with the community together.

The forum here is basically community driven and the majority wants to help quickly not loosing a lot of time. That's why you got the advice to solve problem in Terminal.

p.s
did you get a try on the chrome browser? Or better if you are a Opera Fan you could try vivaldi.

I have been using Opera and Vivaldi in connecting with the Omega2, as I stated after your inquiry as to the Version number I have the issue with.
I am not a Developer so I am unable to contribute code to this project, but thought I could help be either posting issues, (and I did search for this before hand) or confirming them.

This section is for feedback and I don't think I should be heckler for posting actual Feedback in here. It's also hard to tell who is official and who isn't, but Brad doesn't seem to be very professional one way or the other.

I posted this over a month ago and actually forgot about it until the follow-up 2 days ago, nothing quick happened here.

@Brad-Buskey That isn't the point, I know I can do that, but shouldn't the GUI Settings manager work??

At what point do you stop banging your head against a wall and wipe up the blood from your forehead.

It is not a secret that the web-based console rarely works right. There are plenty of threads complaining about it. The command line always works. That includes for setting the name, wifi info, AP info, and so on.

Now, if you want to go into the web source and fix it, then by all means do so, and share the results. If all you wanted was to change the password, why the hell are you bitching when a solution is given to do exactly what you wanted?

I am not a web dev, I am just a user trying to provide feedback on Onion's hardware and software.
Not sure what got into your craw, but heckling feedback is not very constructive at all!

EDIT: Pretty darn sure this is the "Comments and Feedback" section of these forums, as well!!

@Futsking-Futsker , to check if it is a bug you need to tell the firmware version you use ... both of you.

My Onion is on 160 as well. Using both Opera and Vivaldi, also Win 7 & 10.

I just tried this out, but I am getting these errors:

Any help would be appreciated!

Howdy, I am unable to change the login password under 'Settings>General Settings'.

It will tell me it was successful, but then I log out to try the new PW and it still only takes the old one.

@Brad-Buskey Haha, like you needed an excuse!

@Arden-Jerrod I just bought into this one, for similar reasons:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1728237598/notixed-turn-your-pi-zero-to-usb-device

Might be exactly what you would need.

@Luciano-S. @WereCatf Alright, I was just wondering about it. I am just starting to play with it and didn't know if this is normal or out of the ordinary. After your description, I can totally see that this can happen.

Thanks guys.

Greetings, I just received my Omega yesterday and when I opened it, I noticed scratches on the shield part going under the MAC address label and on either side of it.

Not sure if others have this as well, but I am disappointed that these mar this product.

Here you can see one going above the label and several more below the label.

Is this normal?

Kurt
