Can’t wait for Nintendo to release a TV tuner?
Use DSLinux instead:
With wifi, telnet, a linux PC, a TV card and either aatv or mplayer, you can watch almost live TV on your DS.
John Skogtvedt has ported the Dropbear SSH Client to DSLinux.
See his announcement for details.
There are problems with including strong cryptography in programs hosted in the USA, so we are looking for alternative hosting.
The move to the 2.6.14 version of the linux kernel has been completed, and is now included in the nightly builds.
The wifi driver has been improved:
A bug in the WEP shared key authentication was fixed.
Problem where the connection hung was fixed.
Changed to not use the shared memory area.
Stsp has added some configurable init scripts, which […]
I didn’t think we’d ever get a web browser running in DSLinux, but I was proved wrong when phestar compiled retawq for DSLinux.
DSLinux has beaten Nintendo/Opera by releasing the first web browser for the DS.

I’ve fixed the WEP support in the Wifi driver so that it can authenticate with APs that use Shared Key authentication.
Usage:
iwconfig nds channel <N> essid <ESSID> key <wepkey>
Thanks go to sgstair and the ethereal dev team.
Update: It looks like only 64bit WEP is working.
Update 2: 128bit WEP in the next build.
The power LED now flashes when using wifi in DSLinux.
Slow flashing = not associated.
Fast flashing = associated.
Bret has updated the wifi driver and it’s much more stable now.
I was able to telnet to my linux computer and check my email:
Then I surfed to a certain well known website:
I also had a chat on IRC:
Bret has written a Wifi driver for DSLinux. It has been added to CVS and is enabled in all builds.
Like the sound driver added recently, it still contains bugs, but it’s fun to try it out anyway.
This is what he says about it:
Alpha version of wireless driver.
There are some new files in the tar […]
Stsp has been working on updating DSlinux to use the 2.6.14 kernel, as the 2.6.9 kernel does not have the generic wifi stack.
Last night it mounted the root filesystem for the first time (it needed the 2.6.14-uc0 patch to be applied).
