ME 09:20 AM Software Development: RE: Can't ping by name
I think the dns-* options in /etc/network/interfaces require that you have the resolvconf package installed. Do you have it? Mattias Ekstrom
DG 01:51 AM Software Development: RE: Can't ping by name
Solved! Thank you!
The only disadvatage is the /etc/resolv.conf file is rewritten (by udhcpc?) on reboot.
I wonder the dns-nameserver parameter in the /etc/network/interfaces has no meaning, even for static ip configuration?

MW 07:30 AM Software Development: RE: Can't ping by name
We've noticed that the DNS doesn't get updated automatically as well.
If you know your DNS server, as a workaround, add the following entry to /etc/resolv.conf (you may need to create this file if it's not there).

DG 06:33 AM Software Development: Can't ping by name
Hello!
Problem is I can't ping any host by name (got "bad address" error), but no problem with ping by IP. I guess it is related to DNS. How can I solve it? (sorry for stupid question, I am nub). Ping to DNS server which I have assigned...

MW 07:19 AM Software Development: RE: KSZ8995MA Ethernet Switch Support
Ok Charlie,
You need to do a little more work on your baseboard file. You need to make sure you strip out all of the stuff that isn't on your host board.
The culprit, I think, is that you are still calling baseboard_setup_mcasp(),...

Can you attach your .config file and the dmesg outputs? The SPI_MAX_CHIPSELECT is a good catch. That needs to be fixed upstream, sometimes those guys get a little nuts trying to save a couple of bytes. The davinci spi ca...
