  @Ronald-McCollam Cool! In the mean time, please check out our tutorial on how to setup your Cross compile environment, so that you can actually compile a firmware to be flashed into the Omega! The tutorial is located at: https://wiki.onion.io/tutorials/cross-compile

  hey faulty, sorry i hadn't posted about this anymore - basically i came to the same solution as you did - just i wasn't able to implement it yet, as I did lack the network, so i postponed to "when i have some more time" great job and very helpful post for everyone who might struggle with the same problems! regards, PP

  @Anco-van-der-Kolk The general principle for compiling for the Omega is very simple. You first write your program in C/C++. You will have access to all of the linux system calls, and you will be able to use most libraries out there (except for ones that are very architecture dependent). Once the program works, you need to write a makefile that tells the compiler how to compile the program which you have just written. Then, you will be copying the makefile to the Linux buildroot, and you will be able to compile your program either as a opkg package or directly into the firmware. For more information, please take a look at this article: https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/devel/packages.

  Just double-checking... when it connects to wifi it should dhcp for an address. I'm noticing on mine that it does pull an address, but ignores the DNS configuration instead opting for using itself as a DNS server and I have direct external DNS queries blocked at the router except for my DNS server.... have you checked /etc/resolv.conf to see if it's updating? If you manually edit it and point it to your DNS server does it start working?

  Finally had time to get back to this Have now set up a more lightweight and up to date system on a VM - kubuntu 14.04 Have managed to proceed further following instructions in: https://github.com/OnionIoT/OpenWRT-Packages/wiki/Setting-Up-the-Cross-Compile-Environment Got as far as Step 6a: make This initially failed, but I tracked the problem down to not having texinfo Resolved by using apt-get install texinfo Perhaps this should be mentioned in the above referenced link?

  @Chaz-Larson I initially had the same problem with Firefox and had to use Chrome too However, once I had got my Omega going OK via Chrome, the latest Omega update (use oupgrade on the command line) the problem was fixed with Firefox - it works fine now. My understanding is that the latest update also fixes the issue with Safari

  @Maurice I think fitting just the INO tools in the Omega should be no problem. However, i'm sure it probably depends on quite a bit of stuff to work (compilers, toolchain, etc, which comes with the Arduino IDE), and these dependencies will probably not fit in the Omega. I think we definitely can use this tool on the Omega, we just need to complete the compilation process on the cloud.

  Hi Rick, I apologize for the bad experience that's as a result of our oversight. As mentioned in my reply to another post you made, can you double check for me if you've turned the switch on the docks to the ON position? If the LED does not turn on even when the dock is on, then there's defective in the Omega itself, and we'll work with you to get it replaced.
