Prerequisites

• You have set up MeeGo SDK environment on Linux

Installing the MeeGo image on your Aava device

For instructions of installing the MeeGo image on the Aava Moblie(Intel Moorestown platform) using an external Micro SD card, please see the page at http://meego.com/devices/handset/installing-aava-device.

Setting up the connection

You can use WLAN to connect your Aava device with your computer. USB connection is not enabled yet but will be supported in later update. To use WLAN connection, you need to figure out the IP assigned to Aava device first. so you need to have access to the AP configuration information

   • Device type: Remote device
   • Authentication type: Password
   • Host Name: <device IP address>
   • SSH Port: 6666
   • Gdb server: 10000

   Note: If this port is not free, you can select another one. And make sure gdb-server package installed in target or use 'sudo zypper install gdb-gdbserver' to install.

   • Connection Timeout: 30
   • User Name: root
   • Password: meego
4. Click Apply.
5. To test the settings, click Test.

   The message "Device configuration successful." is displayed in Device Configuration Test window.
