Here there are some new packages (sources + binaries) compiled with
the new toolchain

openntpd, a ntp server:
http://neptune354-dev.googlegroups.com/web/openntpd-3.9p1.tar.bz2

And here the ntp client ntpclient:
http://neptune354-dev.googlegroups.com/web/ntpclient.tar.bz2

These have nothing to do with the crappy ntp applications that come
with linksys firmware. If you find a way to replace the old
applications with these new, send me a patch.


Wireless tools, that are supposed to use the very poor extensions in
the wireless drivers:
http://neptune354-dev.googlegroups.com/web/wireless_tools.26.tar.bz2

At the moment they does not replace the wlcfg.....


mtd, really useful to read and write independently the squashfs
filesystem and the kernel to flash from command line:
http://neptune354-dev.googlegroups.com/web/mtd.tar.bz2

This has been stolen from openwrt, so for help search on their site or
simpy "mtd --help". MTD map:
mtd0 -> file system
mtd1 -> kernel
mtd2 -> Bootloader !! Do not write on this, unless you have a
jtag....!
By memory, to flash a new squash file system use the command:
mtd -e mtd0 write -r fs.squash mtd0


At the end, for fun (and profit) tcpdump and libpcap
http://neptune354-dev.googlegroups.com/web/tcpdump-2007.07.27.tar.bz2
http://neptune354-dev.googlegroups.com/web/libpcap-0.9.7.tar.bz2

yes, tcpdump works :)

mtd1 is kernel + filesystem, not only kernel

ok you are right, so this means:
writing a new kernel will erase the file system too, so you have to
write also a new file system.

btw i have never undestood why of this strange flash mapping

thnx for the correction
