@Alex-Butler @Douglas-Kryder @Daniel-Bachmann Any update? did you get it working somehow?

@WereCatf Thank you anyway

I know it's possible with a custom firmware, but it's a bit risky and I'm not a brave man. In the Raspberry Pi you can change the baudrate or even disable the serial terminal editing /boot/config.txt, I'm looking for something like that.

I'm trying to configure fw_printenv to get the u-boot enviroment variables (I don't even know what I'm doing ) Do you know what the Env. size and Flash sector size are for the Omega2+?

Is there any way to show the serial terminal on serial1 instead of serial0 changing boot options?

@WayneL Don't know, maybe they think some of those packages could break firmware, the development state of the Omega2 software is pretty alpha.

Yes it is, but you have to uncomment the reboot_packages repo on your /etc/opkg/distfeeds.conf, then run opkg update. After that you can install Apache.

@Brad-Buskey can you run opkg info mc and post the output, please?

Can't find the package, what are the exact package name and repo?

@Mar-Adrian-Belen They are not on the Omega repos but in the LEDE ones. You have to uncomment the repo http://downloads.lede-project.org/snapshots/packages/mipsel_24kc/packages/ in your /etc/opkg/distfeeds.conf or, what I would do, download the packages and their dependencies and install them manually. You can download the packages with:

wget http://downloads.lede-project.org/snapshots/packages/mipsel_24kc/packages/minidlna_1.1.5-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

And then install them with:

opkg install minidlna_1.1.5-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

Good luck.

@Danny-K Just found you can download minidlna and forked-daapd from LEDE project's repos.

Hey Danny,

if you want to share files between devices you can use samba, the package is samba36-server. You can find on Google several tutorials an guides on how setup it on Linux. If you want to share media using a DLNA server you can install minidlna, but I'm afraid it's not on the repos and you would have to find a way to compile and make it work on the Omega yourself. If you have Apple devices and use iTunes you can use forked-daapd to share your music library with all your devices, neither is in the repos so you would have the same problem.

The blue Power LED indicates if there is power flowing to the Omega. Don't know if the flickering green leds are normal, but mine do the same, probably because there is not battery connected. You can read more about the Power Dock here.

Since some people are asking on private messages, to install openssh-sftp-server download the package from the repository with:

wget http://downloads.lede-project.org/snapshots/packages/mipsel_24kc/packages/openssh-sftp-server_7.4p1-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

and install it with:

opkg install openssh-sftp-server_7.4p1-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

I didn't uncomment the reboot_packages repo on /etc/opkg/distfeeds.conf because I don't know if all those packages would cause any issues.

@Lazar-Demin Please, consider fixing the poweroff and halt issues before summiting the Pull Request.

Thank you, didn't know about the commented repositories.

EDIT: Again thank you, fossette. Found the package openssh-sftp-server on the reboot_packages repo. Now it's installed and working.

Hi, I'm trying to mount my Omega2+'s filesystem using sshfson my linux box but seems that the Omega doesn't have a SFTP server running. Reading older post the recommendation is installing openssh-sftp-server but the package isn't on the repositories. Is there any other repository from where I can download it or any way to cross-compile the package from source?

Thank you,
Jorge

Hi all,

I wrote a python library for the DS3231, it should work with th DS1307 too because the i2c address and the registrers are the same. Just follow the steps on the readme file to put it working.
