Wive-NG with Dlink DWL-G700AP does not work in Client mode

Technical, Linux/Unix, 50 words   English (US)

Dont get me wrong, Wive and Wive-ng are great projects that give crappy dlink access points a second life but there is just a serious lack of documentation especially in english.

Flashing the device is well documented and a breeze but despite attempts with different configurations
This just doesnt work!

Solution to Ubuntu's crackling sound

Technical, Linux/Unix, 96 words   English (AU)

I encountered this problem when I first upgraded to Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex, when ever a sound should be a playing, one can only hear crackling sounds. It appears for some reason pulseaudio occasionally turns the pcm volume to 0 which causes pulseaudio to make the crackling sound when sound is played. I havent been able to figure out what caused it as its only happened once on upgrade and a second time out of the blue. It hasent happened since.

Solution is either to simply use gnome-volume-control, alsa-mixer or any other volume apps and increase pcm volume.

  • Irritating 200ms delay from sound out, Samsung fix this FFS

Anyway, it turns out after downloading and extracting the firmware from Samsung it turns out the firmware is STLinux based.
