Re: DCC and Linux

Happy to hear that
Linux rocks

edit : 25/08/2011
just FYI I've just successfully flashed my DM7000 with FlashWizard under Linux with Wine...

You are brilliant. That works 100 percent. That has been the main reason to keep a windows computer so I can easily communicate with dreambox, goodbye windows now I hope.
Thanks for your trouble.

Re: DCC and Linux

you got that under "connection type"
there is a checkbox with "No Check"

check it.

If I don't check it I got a : "Error 10057in function Send Socket is not connected"

And as said, don't forget to modify your hosts file to have the proper computer IP appear in the combo list under "This Computer"

Don't hesitate to ask if I wasn't clear enough...

Re: DCC and Linux

FYI, I've tried under wine the tools package downloaded from -http://www.satlover.com/forum/139189-post142.html

you need to be root to run it (because some of it run ICMP to test the network)
you need to properly setup /etc/hosts to replace the 127.0.0.1 line for a line with your correct IP

under DCC disable the network tests... and it works
DreamboxEdit : OK
FlashWizard : I've tested an image backup : OK...

so it seems Wine is definitely the way to have Dreambox tools under Linux

Where abouts is the network test setting in dcc, I cant seem to find any reference to it.

Re: DCC and Linux

Be careful for Dreambox 500s DCC enigma 1, for dreambox 500 hd ,800hd ,se use DCC-E2

Re: DCC and Linux

Re: DCC and Linux

look at that.. it seems there is Dreamup for Linux?

Nice one, I will give it a try, but dont want a new image at present but maybe try a backup

Re: DCC and Linux

hmm..
I've tried to run it under Debian Squeeze....
not easy at all...

i had to add some lines to /etc/apt/sources.list

then
# aptitude update; aptitude install libglib1.2-dev libgtk1.2-dev
# ln -s /usr/lib/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libgdk_pixbuf.so.2

Now you can run the program, don't forget to choose a com port (even if you don't use it..., or you'll get : "unable to open COM-Port, Aborting"...

So ok for DreamUP but for DCC, you can run it under Wine :

Re: DCC and Linux

i agree with thyristor44
dcc are built for dreambox
it have telnet built in
also some tools as backup nfs mount , addons
ipkg packages

Re: DCC and Linux

Why not use filezilla, it is far less Complicate than DCC

Looks like DCC only work with windows. Please correct me if I am wrong

I do use filezilla but its not as intuitive as dcc

Re: DCC and Linux

you can scp files to the dbox
scp yourfile root@ipofthdbox:/path
root password : dreambox (on a gemini)

you can also ftp files (using Filezilla for example)
