Connect to Freerunner Android from Opensuse

Plug in the freerunner, and yast2 should prompt you to configure a new network device of type usb. Follow the instructions, and configure using ifup (Not network manager) and use a static IP address for the freerunner. Assign it to 192.168.0.200.

The adb program is available here: http://people.openmoko.org/sean_mcneil/adb

Download it and put it somewhere and make it executable.

Then save this set of commands as a bash script with a name like connect or whatever.

#!/bin/bash

$/usr/local/share/adb kill-server
$ADBHOST=192.168.0.202 /usr/local/share/adb devices
$/usr/local/share/adb shell


Make this executable and then run it. It should drop you automatically into the shell interface on your freerunner.
