MadwifiNG at Hacknight
So tonight at hacknight we are sitting at Cal Anderson park, I was able to fire up a Metrix box running Pyramid Linux with a lithium ion laptop battery to act as a repeater from the local cafe. The cool part is that we are using a single radio which is simultaneously a STA (client) [...]

gpsd for pyramid linux
At the request of Darrin, I just built gpsd for Pyramid Linux. I don’t have all the gps gear to test it fully but I loaded it up on a soekris board at home and it starts up with no problems. I stuck here for now: http://ken.ipl31.net/pyramid/
