Intel AMT revisited

 The old article refers to using the Intel AMT SDK and Real VNC Plus for connecting to the remote console, but a better solution is to use meshcommander - this allows you to control all the available devices in your local network form one place.

In order to install meshcommander, only NodeJS and the corresponding npm is needed, so it all resumes to:

mkdir ~/.meshcommander
cd ~/.meshcommander
npm install meshcommander 

 

then, to start, 

cd ~/.meshcommander/node_modules/meshcommander

node meshcommander [--any (default is 127.0.0.1) --port (default is 3000)] 

and you can use the web console (http://localhost:3000):

 

 

EliteBook ambientlight sensor

Map keycode e033 (or any other key you choose) to the following command that toggles the sensor on or off:


echo $((1 - $(cat /sys/devices/platform/hp-wmi/als))) | sudo tee -a /sys/devices/platform/hp-wmi/als



HiSilicon Hi3516Ev200 debrick

 HiSilicon Hi3516Ev200 camera gets bricked if tried to update the OpenIPC from the web interface running on :85, as the mtd block erase crashes the system during the process.

Download the latest build from github, unpack it and put it on the tftp directory.

wget https://github.com/OpenIPC/firmware/releases/download/latest/openipc.hi3516ev200-br.tgz | tar -zvx /tmp/tftboot

Set the local IP as 192.168.1.254

Start tftp server:   in.tftpd -L -vvvv -a 192.168.1.254:69 -s /tmp/tftpboot 

Connect the USBSerial adapter and configure minicom speed at 115200bps.

Connect power to the HiSilicon board and press CTRL+C

At the prompt, type:

setenv bootargs 'mem=${osmem:-32M} console=ttyAMA0,115200 panic=20 root=/dev/mtdblock3 rootfstype=squashfs init=/init mtdparts=hi_sfc:256k(boot),64k(env),2048k(kernel),5120k(rootfs),-(rootfs_data)'
