SSL-84b requires the 9-11-11 drivers while OpenPLi uses the 9-2-11 drivers. Either downgrade your SSL to 84a, or upgrade the drivers to 9-11...

Damned ... the image is unstable ...

Nevertheless I put a # before each IPV6, INET6 and IP6 lines in linux-dm800-2.6.18/defconfig .... and repack linux-dm800-2.6.18-r6+git3 ... and re make image.

I don't know if it makes the difference, but I didn't just comment out the config entries, I set "=n".

CONFIG_IP6_NF_QUEUE=n
CONFIG_IPV6=n
CONFIG_IPV6_PRIVACY=n
# CONFIG_IPV6_ROUTER_PREF is not set
CONFIG_INET6_AH=n
CONFIG_INET6_ESP=n
CONFIG_INET6_IPCOMP=n
CONFIG_INET6_XFRM_TUNNEL=n
CONFIG_INET6_TUNNEL=n
CONFIG_INET6_XFRM_MODE_TRANSPORT=n
CONFIG_INET6_XFRM_MODE_TUNNEL=n
CONFIG_IPV6_TUNNEL=n

etc... etc...

Very nice image and functional image, Thanks.

One point to address:
Enable Parental control = Yes
Protect Setup = Yes

Setup can still be accessed (no password asked) and the kids can do a factory reset or do a channel search or change system settings!

Disabling all IPV6 stuff from kernel makes other things break. For example, tun module crashes kernel when using openvpn.

What problems exist when IPV6 options in kernel are not touched but ipv6 module is not loaded? (just by removing kernel-module-ipv6 package)

For online updates, you don't need to mess with changing opkg status files. opkg has the option to flag packages in hold state.

opkg flag hold dreambox-dvb-modules
opkg flag hold dreambox-secondstage

More specifically, image instability causing lockups & reboots every 5-20 minutes. Luckily I don't use VPN... ;)

... Also my experience with the opkg hold flag is indeed sometimes it works as advertised, other times... Not... I don't think I specifically tried it with the ssl & modules as I had experienced failures with it in the past w/ other packages...

Well, I am running OpenPLI 2.1 latest with original drivers 02/09/11 and ssl84a for about two days now. dm800hd, sim 2.01. No lockups or reboots. I just removed kernel-module-ipv6.

Is this mentioned ipv6 issue only happening for OpenPLI or other images as well? Can you point me to some discussion mentioning details about this problem?

OK, found the discussion and the error here: http://www.sat-universe.com/showpost.php?p=850122&postcount=53

Will investigate it more.

The above mentioned crash is not happening if you just remove ipv6 kernel module (which is just the ipv6 to ipv4 tunnel code), at least for me. Can anyone else test it?

flash original image + ssl84a

rm /etc/modutils/ipv6
update-modules
rm /lib/modules/2.6.18-7.4-dm800/kernel/net/ipv6/ipv6.ko
depmod -a
reboot

then check for stability

Hi - does anyone know where I can find a link to the clone image submitted by GJS as the Multiupload link has gone down.

Thanks in advance.
