Hello!

Yesterday I have build an openwrt image with batman adv but i see that this version is not complatible with past version, sniffing packets i see batman adv v 14 instead of 12

Now i can update all openwrt nodes but the problem is that some nodes are gentoo based, how to see the batman version and in what version of gentoo kernel i can find the same as openwrt ?

many thanks!

There is a page which gives a rough overview about the compat versions [1] and the download page contains a complete mapping between kernel versions and standalone versions. We will _not_ create a separate list of gentoo (or any other distribution) patched kernels.

Kind regards,
Sven

mmm
batman-adv openwrt version is 2011.3.0 that seems included in 3.1 kernel but latest kernel available in gentoo is 3.0.6

the other way to install batman-adv in gentoo is the gentoo ebuild but seems more outdated 2011.1.0 :|

do you think is a good idea to compile latest batman-adv and load it as module on my actual kernel ( 2.6.39 ) ?

Please contact the gentoo maintainer. I already tried in once, but got no reply.

To be more precise: Use the version with the newest patches from ordex (either from the mailing list or from the maint branch... after they were applied there).

Kind regards,

Here (in them iddle of the page):

http://www.open-mesh.org/wiki/open-mesh/Download

you can see which batman version is in each kernel.
