chef.libremesh.org respect PACKAGES but not /etc/config/lime-defaults

by Gio

as in subject you can reproduce it by creating an image for the canmasdeu/ bridge profile with plain lede flavour I suspect it is because the profile get opkgized and it may be installed before lime-system and then the file get overwritten haven't tested if with last cooker it happens or not to confirm my theory Cheers

lime-cc cloud configuration

by Paul Spooren

Hi all, as mentioned in my RFC on GitHub [1] I thought of a simple way to configure a cloud (from within the cloud) by using the bmx7-sms plugin [2]. To show you the idea and how it could work please check my fork [3]. Here the commit message: * lime-cc-client check every 5 minutes for a new configuration received by bmx7-sms. if the configuration is valid and the node is trusted the configuration is used as default, lime-config and lime-apply runs. if not, the configuration is ignored. * lime-cc-server distributes it own lime-defaults to the cloud. If changes happen to the config it will be distributed to the cloud. Would be happiest to hear for comments. Best, Paul [1] https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/issues/304 [2] https://github.com/bmx-routing/bmx7#sms-plugin [3] https://github.com/aparcar/lime-packages/commit/e8ceb46dd56166398161090bc75…

GSoC 2018 Ideas

by Paul Spooren

Hello, the new GSoC [1] is coming up and all organizations can apply with fresh ideas. This year the deadline is already on 23.01 so we should move quick! Luckly, the german Freifunk community created a website to collect ideas [2]. We could discuss here needed features and projects and decide who writes a (short) proposal for the website. I already did so and created an project proposal to work on the new bmx7 [3]. As I'm still a student I'd very much like to participate again. Last year I worked on the image server and chef [4] which slowly gains some attention. If possible I could continue the work on that as well. So far so good, Paul [1] https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/ [2] https://github.com/freifunk/projects.freifunk.net-contents [3] https://projects.freifunk.net/#/projects?project=bmx7_semtor_web_interface&… [4] https://chef.libremesh.org

Exit via VPN

by Dennis Hecken

Dear LibrrMesh Team, is it possible only grant access to internet only via VPN like vpn.ac or PricateInternetAccess.com or just fastd? In Germany the law is not the best in this case and publishing the private internet Access to public is risky! I did not find any information about this feature. Thanks a lot! Best regards, Dennis

lime-sdk fails to generate some images (too big kernel size)

by Roger Pueyo Centelles | Guifi.net

Dear LiMers, I've been recently using the lime-sdk tool (actually, a fork <https://dev.qmp.cat/projects/qmp-cooker/>) to generate images for a number of devices <https://dev.qmp.cat/projects/qmp-cooker/repository/revisions/master/entry/q…>. Overall it's been very successful but, with some of them, I've faced some trouble. Take the example of the Alfa N5 outdoor wireless CPE (target=ar71xx/generic, profile=ALFANX), which has 8 MB of flash (enough to fit a lot of packages). Once the additional packages are built (./cooker -b ar71xx/generic --force-local) I cook the image (./cooker -c ar71xx/generic --profile=ALFANX) but the process fails: the kernel built locally is too big to fit in the device's partition scheme. I guess the problem comes from the fact that the SDK builds packages with some extra options (debug, symbols, etc.) compared to the Buildroot. Have you experienced this behaviour? Do you have any idea on how to overcome this? The lime-sdk cooker is a wonderful tool, and it would be very nice to make it work with all the devices. Cheers, Roger
