I am the lucky owner of one. Bought it some days ago, have installed two satellites and managed to flash Gemini project 3.2 into memory yesterday. I have set the Dreambox up in a DNS (Windows 2000 serv.) network with a fixed internal ip adress both on the Dreambox and the DNS DHCP server. The Dreambox Control Center program recognises my setup. Still - for some reason it's not possible to install addon camds directly from the internet to the Dreambox by using blue button on the remote control and I don't quite understand what I have done wrong yet
.
Now I am searching for other ways to install newcamd and you say "just install the ipkgs" Yes, I have seen the text in the Newcamd readme.txt file telling that:
The Dreambox 7020 has a very nice software package handling system, just as
regular Linux distributions for your PC do. You should never just copy any
standalone files onto the Dreambox 7020 root filesystem. Instead use the package
handling system, which will automaticially copy all the necessary files to the
correct locations, changes the boot skripts to start the additional software
automatically at boot time, etc. For the Dreambox 7020, we made a seperate set
of distribution files, using the package handling system. All you need to do, is
upload the ipk files to some temporary directory (/tmp for example) and then
install the software using ipkg. Only install the packages you intend to use of
course:
ipkg install libcamdio_0.0.0_dreambox.ipk (always needed)
ipkg install newcamd_6.00_dreambox.ipk
ipkg install newcamd-cardserver_6.00_dreambox.ipk
ipkg install newcamd-cardspider_6.00_dreambox.ipk
Obviously, I should read somewhere about ipkg. Can anyone give me a link to a tutorial?
In advance: Many thks
