Re: [Testers needed] USB Hostmode prealpha for the N900
 

not right now , first this is prealpha , u need to reboot for phone to recognize changed devices (meaning u connect a flash drive , and after you are done using it , the phone wont recognize any other flash drive until you reboot), also the drivers for other devices are not ported yet , flash drives are the only thing working now .

Re: [Testers needed] USB Hostmode prealpha for the N900
 

So it is not possible to use standard linux usb drivers?

Re: [Testers needed] USB Hostmode prealpha for the N900
 

@pali
the question if there are support for these devices compiled into this special kernel (MohammedAG will know). try it. you'll need to set up the device by hand.
I can't test because I don't hav a usb2eth device

Re: [Testers needed] USB Hostmode prealpha for the N900
 

So if I compile kernel modules for usb ethernet adapter (there are some working for n8x0) into "special kernel" will it be work?

Or is this special usb host mode only for usb flash devices and other usb devices will never working without "special patches" for this "special kernel" ?

Re: [Testers needed] USB Hostmode prealpha for the N900
 

@pali
I think:
this kernel has patches to make to make the host mode possible. In host mode any usb device should (doesn't mean it will) work as expected if the right kernel nodules are loaded and the device doesn't need to much power.

1st find out if there aren't any modules yet, if not you can try to compile your own. they should work if the USB ethernet adapter doesn't need too much energy (if it does use an active hub)

I recommend an hub in any way because then you can connect and disconnect your device without reboot.

I've have read this thread but I can't really deacid/understand if there are people here, which actually got this right in any usable way?

Re: [Testers needed] USB Hostmode prealpha for the N900
 

I have updated my post,
I have the correct kernel 2.6.28-hostmode1
But I still have no luck with the TFlash.
I will try to find USB convert female to female for getting close to the standard setup.
Also I will get a USB Hub with external power.

MohammadAG, could you link your kernel with Titan's one.
Or could titan modify its kernel power to fit your kernel hostmode ?

Re: [Testers needed] USB Hostmode prealpha for the N900
 

The Title says : "PREALPHA", no worry if it is does not work yet.
It is the way to make it standardand easy working and usable way.
When things are easy, things are boaring !

Eventhough it does not work for me I will keep giving it a try !
Maybe you can ask the H.E.N. garage to create a wiki.

Nerfiaux!

My flashdrive refuses to work :(

I get this message in dmesg:

full log is attached

[added]
Tested with a second flashdrive and another error shows up. attached second log file

Re: [Testers needed] USB Hostmode prealpha for the N900
 

About the second one, you flashed back to the stock kernel :/
From your logs:
