Cumulus MX on a Synology NAS (DS210j)

Post by henkg »

Installing Mono was easy. Mono for Synology is available in package center.
After that, I started CumulusMX (as root): mono CumulusMX.exe -lang en-US.
Unfortunately, no data when browsing to http://Local_IP_DS210j:8998

DS210J> ls -al /sys/class/hidraw
ls: /sys/class/hidraw: No such file or directory


DS210J> lsusb -t
-ash: lsusb: not found


DS210J> mono -V

The Synology info screen shows (External devices, USB device) WH1080 Weather station / USB Missile launcher – Dream link

With WinSCP I did a search for ‘libudev*’, from root level. Nothing found ...
So now I think I have to install this lib.
DS210J> apt-get install libudev0
-ash: apt-get: not found


So I need a bootstrap IPKG to be able to install libudev0, but I can’t find a suitable IPKG package for Synology DSM5.1
To be continued ....

Update:
I found a IPKG package for the DS210j processor (Marvell Kirkwood ARMv5te). Unfortunately no libudev0 in its repository.
Posted my question ("how to install libudev0") on the (NL) Synology forum ...

Update:
How to get and install this libudev0 for a ArmV5tel?
No helpful answer from the Dutch Synology forum. so not one step further.
I will write a post on the EN Synology forum, and wait ...

Although Synology specific, any help from here is of course very welcome.

Is libudev1 available? It's possible that I could modify the HID interface (which I didn't write) to work with that instead.

Libudev1? Don't think so, did a search for libudev.

Problem with Synology NAS irt Cumulus MX and libudev:
- Different processors, hard to find a suitable package
- An installer (something like IPKG) is needed, because Synology FW does not have something like a standard apt-get install. The Synology support department however doesn’t seem to “like” non-Synology standard packages. From a support view: quite normal.

Theoretically I could use my DS412+ (Intel i386, Atom D2700) for a test. I won’t: it is my production server within my gigabit LAN. So moving it to my garden house (console location, only 100 mbit for having a reliable wireless connection from the transmitter) is not an option.

Installing libudev0 might be very easy, but I really do not know how.
I hope the two other Synology Cumulus MX testers know more about Syno and Linux (for me, first thought still is Linus Van Pelt, not Linus Torvalds)
