  • Solo4K as a router, possible?

    Hello,


    I wonder if someone tried to use the Solo4K as a router/access point.
    It's internal WiFi cad support AP mode and it could be connected through lan cable directly to the internet, so why not?


    Currently i am facing an issue with my current wifi router which is damaged and i started to play with Solo4K WiFi AP mode, but only thing i can do is to connect to the Solo4K through AP mode or to have internet through LAN, but not both at the same time with routing between AP and LAN.



    Best regards,



    Marc

  • After skin installation VU+ is in a loop with green screen

    Hi,


    Also, you can to connect through ssh/ftp to your vuplus and when the green screen appear issues the "init 2" command through ssh/ftp to keep the green screen on the screen, read what is doing and install what is missing, probably your skin had a dependency which was not automatically resolved.
    Also, you will see the exact error and where it was logged, you can post the important entry from that log file here.

  • List of Telnet Commands for Enigma2 Receivers

    Hi,


    Some few corrections or at least some explanations should be added to this thread.


    Init command does not do anything, but only change the runlevel of the linux machine and reload all init scripts, located in /etc/init.d for each /etc/rcX.d where X is a number between 0-6 or S and represents a runlevel, where usually do following from end user perspective
    0 - deep standby "shutdown"; will execute all /etc/rc0.d/* scripts before entering deep standby
    1 - single user without network; will execute all /etc/rc1.d/* scripts after switching the runlevel
    2 - multi user with network; will execute all /etc/rc2.d/* scripts after switching the runlevel
    3 - multi user with network with enigma2; will execute all /etc/rc3.d/* scripts after switching the runlevel
    4 - multi user with network; will execute all /etc/rc3.d/* scripts after switching the runlevel
    5 - multi user with network with enigma2; will execute all /etc/rc5.d/* scripts after switching the runlevel
    6 - reboot ; will execute all /etc/rc6.d/* scripts before reboot
    S - shutdown ; will execute all /etc/rc0.d/* scripts before entering deep standby


    So issuing an "init 4" or "init 2" will not kill anything, but will stop enigma2 gracefully, waiting for all it's components to stop.


    Issuing from command line, ssh or ftp, "killall 9 enigma2" will cause to sudden stop all enigma2 services without waiting to close anything and leave all opened files in an uncertain state, for example, if you have an E2 plugin which open some files, let say "permanent time-shift" and issue killall -9 enigma2 this plugin will not have a chance to close and remove it's files prior closing enigma2, because was killed with -9 parameter which mean "sudden/ no wait".
    For sure the "killall -9 enigma2" will not reboot the machine. :)


    So, it is dangerous to issue haphazardly commands which you don't understand, but most dangerous is to write HOW TO's with those incorrect commands.


    Please, somebody rectify all those above commands in this thread.


    Best regards,



    Marc
