Hi luca26,

Try to add the next string to your /etc/nsswitch.conf file:

hosts: files dns

Cheers,

Hi Max,
my nsswitch.conf is:

passwd:
compat
group:
compat
shadow:
compat

hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns
mdns4
networks:
files

protocols: db
files
services: db
files
ethers: db
files
rpc: db
files

netgroup: nis

So I think "hosts: files dns " is already in...

You may want to check the route on the board, what's the output of:

$route -n

Mine looks like:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
10.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 usb0
0.0.0.0 10.0.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 usb0

And to get that I had to do:

$route add default gw 10.0.0.1

In my particular situation, I am using a dual-homed host and serve ip
addresses to my boards via eth1 with has the address 10.0.0.1. I also
set up IPTABLES to forward ipv4 packets appropriately. This page has
a quick and dirty instruction:

Hello,

I've been looking around trying to find information on how to implement SPI SLAVE mode on the beagleboard. Has anyone out there any bits of information or howto's or examples?

I'm running angstrom.

No, SPI SLAVE is not a typo.

Thanks
