Raspberry Pi B+ NO USB Support
by Glen Cunningham 11 Aug '14

11 Aug '14

G'day Sig-Arm list, I have just tried the latest release (ipfire-2.15.1gb-ext4.armv5tel-full-core81.img) on my Raspberry Pi B+ (B-Plus). First boot and partition re-size was fine, reboot to the "Select Keyboard" screen looked good but there is no keyboard response - actually no USB device response at all! A 'Pi without USB support has very limited use. Is there an easy way to get the correct USB driver for this model? The Debian (Raspbian) people have this fixed, can the driver from Raspbian be used on IPFire? Thanks in anticipation, Glen

No, there is no cross-compiler available. On Mon, 2014-08-11 at 11:19 +0100, John Leake wrote: > Hi Michael, > Thank you for your reply.

jp1082 USB to Ethernet
by John Leake 11 Aug '14

Hi All, I have installed ipfire on my pi and all is ok except the very low cost jp1082 USB to Ethernet adapters are not recognised. I would like to build the jp drivers and include them in a pi ipfire SD image. I have forked the ipfire-2.x repo and successfully built the default image as a test (it took 3 hour(s) 52 minute(s) 55 second(s))! Can anyone tell me how to build the pi image ? Ozpoz
