[15:39:15] <scottie4442> my friends and I are trying to use the zipit z2's as LAN messangers for our RPG table, instead of passing sticky notes

[22:04:02] <scottie4442> how do I get the wireless up on Openwrt. I have setup the /etc/config/wireless file and still not wireless
[22:04:13] <tntexplosivesltd> ah, you're back
[22:04:19] <tntexplosivesltd> 07:39 < scottie4442> my friends and I are trying to use the zipit z2's as LAN messangers for our RPG table, instead of passing sticky notes
[22:04:23] <tntexplosivesltd> I suggest using IRC
[22:04:40] <tntexplosivesltd> I wouldn't even go anywhere near bonjour
[22:04:51] <tntexplosivesltd> if you're referring to what I think you are >.>
[22:05:07] <scottie4442> we do not want to use the internet to do the communications
[22:06:09] <scottie4442> I can setup a server and use it for this purpose, not a problem, but I have to get the thing on the network first
[22:08:53] <projectgus> scottie4442: what kind of encryption do you have? if WPA, is your WPA key in the config file in plaintext?
[22:09:10] <projectgus> scottie4442: finally, did you comment out the "option disabled" that comes in there from stock
[22:09:37] <scottie4442> wpa2 with aes. yes commented out the option disabled line, read that in the file
[22:11:27] <scottie4442> when I do an ifconfig it shows wlan0 but no address, I have tried dhclient but no go
[22:14:44] <tntexplosivesltd> scottie4442: you don't need the internet for an IRC server
[22:14:51] <tntexplosivesltd> set one up on a local machne
[22:14:54] <tntexplosivesltd> * machine
[22:15:27] <scottie4442> but I will need the wireless to be able to connect to it. I also want each conversation to be private
[22:15:39] <tntexplosivesltd> irc has private messaging
[22:15:50] <tntexplosivesltd> what bonjour are you talking about?
[22:15:54] <tntexplosivesltd> The Apple one?
[22:16:01] <tntexplosivesltd> or am I thinking of something else?
[22:16:23] <scottie4442> I guess I have been reading about in on line, I was going to use finch to do this
[22:17:04] <tntexplosivesltd> I see
[22:17:19] <projectgus> scottie4442: if you run 'wifi' on the command line what do you get?
[22:17:20] <tntexplosivesltd> I don't see why you would need bonjour for that
[22:17:23] <projectgus> iirc some errors are to be expected :/
[22:17:41] <scottie4442> no prob just trying to fix them.
[22:18:07] <projectgus> scottie4442: what I mean is, I think you see errors there even when the connection works due to some unsupported ioctls in the driver
[22:18:23] <projectgus> scottie4442: also, have you tried any of the variants listed here: http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/uci/wireless#wpa.modes
[22:18:41] <projectgus> psk2 or psk2+aes probably likely bets
[22:18:58] <projectgus> or psk2+tkip+aes
[22:19:10] <scottie4442> I tried to ping around my network and it says destination unreachable. I am and IT guy from way back just not a programmer, so cannot dig into the code
[22:19:15] <flyback> aes or might as well go plaintext
[22:19:37] <tntexplosivesltd> scottie4442: shouldn't need to dig into the code
[22:19:54] <tntexplosivesltd> does it associate with the AP properly?
[22:20:22] <projectgus> scottie4442: that link is to the documentation, not the code :)
[22:22:43] <scottie4442> let me get it booted back up and I can run some checks
[22:23:50] <scottie4442> I have to get this right as I have 15 more of these to do
[22:25:05] <scottie4442> when I run wifi I get the error - command failed: operation not supported (-95)
[22:25:15] <projectgus> if you can pastebin your config as well I can take a look at it
[22:25:25] <projectgus> (just change your psk key if you're worried someone will come and steal your wifi :).)
[22:25:29] <tntexplosivesltd> heh, get it right on one then clone the miniSD card to the others
[22:25:36] <tntexplosivesltd> will save a lot of time
[22:28:26] *** Wil5on has quit IRC
[22:28:48] <scottie4442> looks like it worked jutr acts like it does not
[22:29:43] <scottie4442> whatever I did that time seems to have worked, thanks for the help
[22:30:12] <tntexplosivesltd> heh
[22:30:17] <tntexplosivesltd> now clone to all cards =P
[22:30:39] <scottie4442> that is what I was planning on doing, dd is a great tool
[22:32:28] <tntexplosivesltd> yuuuup
[22:32:39] <tntexplosivesltd> it's also a terrible tool
[22:32:44] <tntexplosivesltd> use it wisely =)
[22:33:02] <scottie4442> what is the openwrt package name for finch
[22:33:35] <tntexplosivesltd> might have to compile from source =P
[22:33:46] <tntexplosivesltd> suddenly using IRC doesn't seem so bad =)
[22:34:31] <tntexplosivesltd> this is why I use arch arm
[22:35:10] <scottie4442> I will have to look into that, IRC that is
[22:35:41] <tntexplosivesltd> UnderSampled: I have decided that openwrt is unsuitable for my z2, there are few packages for it
[22:35:56] <projectgus> scottie4442: good to hear :)
[22:36:21] *** fiftyonefifty has quit IRC
[22:36:57] <tntexplosivesltd> you could try and build finch from source, but you'd need to grab the source first
[22:37:27] <projectgus> scottie4442: fwiw there is an 'irssi' package in the default repository
[22:37:30] <projectgus> for IRC, that is
[22:37:43] <projectgus> I don't know of any openwrt packages for IM clients, but that doesn't mean there aren't any
[22:37:52] <projectgus> (I don't really use my ZipIts as interactive devices)
[22:38:05] <tntexplosivesltd> and you'd need a server
[22:38:08] <tntexplosivesltd> like unreal
[22:38:12] <tntexplosivesltd> or ngircd
[22:38:26] <tntexplosivesltd> but really an IM program would be better suited
[22:38:49] <tntexplosivesltd> scottie4442: it almost sounds as if you're wanting to use the z2 for what it was originally intended =P
[22:41:37] <scottie4442> kinda but limited to a LAN. a bunch of friends and I are role player and we want to use these so that we do not have to pass notes around the table
[22:41:52] <tntexplosivesltd> true, true
