Web Dump manual connect to 802.1x with netagent
Note, The following only works on firmware 5.7 or smaller, I have found no way to make the new dynamic connect version of netagent starting from fw 5.8 work :-(
Adjust the following configs like this:
network.cfg
wifi.9.cacert=yourcert.crt
wifi.9.eapmethod="auth=PAP"
wifi.9.eaptype=TTLS
wifi.9.essid=eduroam
wifi.9.key_and_password_encrypted=0
wifi.9.mode=0
wifi.9.name=eduroam
wifi.9.password=yourpassword
wifi.9.proxy=0
wifi.9.security=2
wifi.9.username=user@realm
network.json
[ {
"id": "wifi",
"cacert": "yourcert.crt",
"essid": "eduroam",
"hidden": 0,
"idle": 10,
"key": "",
"mode": 0,
"security": 2,
"wepmode": 0,
"eaptype": "TTLS",
"username": "user@realm",
"usercert": "",
"password": "yourpassword",
"eapmethod": "\"auth=PAP\"",
"network_param": { "ipconfig": 0, "dns_list": [ "", "" ] }
} ]
and put the certificate file into I:\system\Certificates
Linux, Web Dump Keyboard Light on Z30
By default in GNOME, you cannot toggle the keyboard light. For GNOME, there is no solution to use the key binding (XF86KbdLightOnOff
) as intended, because gnome-settings-daemon reserves the key at a level that does not allow any further capturing. Other DMs may not suffice from this “feature”.
What you can do is, to put the function on another keyboard shortcut (ex. Winkey+Z) and have it execute this script
That will toggle through the three keyboard states (automatic, on, off). You can put it on suid-root so that you can change the file in the /sys
interface.
Update you can also use acpid
and this config file:
event=button/kbdillumtoggle
action=/path/to/helper
