About the network connection for Android 2.3 on Panda board

Huan Hou

Hi, all

I download the source code and build the kernel and filesys for Android on Panda board.

http://www.linaro.org/downloads/

http://www.linaro.org/linaro-blog/2011/09/15/building-a-linaro-android-build-from-source/

But when boot up the board, and set the static internal ip address, I found I can't ping the board from my Linux server. But if I ping the Linux server from the baord first, it's OK. So I think this might because the board doesn't broadcast its information to the outside world when using static ip address, but when using dhcp, as it has to connection to the dhcp server to get an IP address, its status is updated in the internal network. Is there any way to confront this problem. Kind of emergency for this issue.

Thanks a lot

touse,

Since you are using the linaro build, we suggest to ask linaro for answers to your queries.

The TI Android DevKit team does not support Pandaboard/OMAP4 and is not in a position to answer queries on linaro builds.

Thanks for your reply. As a matter of factor, I just want to get some hint about my network configuration or the configuration for the network driver, as the Panda board with Ubuntu OS will not have the same issue.
