Re: [LAD] The Linux On Yamaha's New XS

Has anyone seen source for it? I'm frankly tantalized. First of all, the unit sounds very well. And, while the new display is apparently colorful, it's still all text--I'm guessing ncurses or slang. Does anyone know? My interest and hope is to access display data over the builtin ethernet tcp/ip connection in order to provide a speaking alternative interface for blind musicians (like me). This seems emminently possible except that Yamaha have locked all ports by default--I know, I nmap'd it. Still, they chose to build the XS using Linux. And they clearly have chosen more f/oss tools, at least Samba is also clearly there judging by the options available in the Network configuration menu. So, how to gain access? How to get some small shell on board? I should think the source is a place to start. It's clear they know they're under the GPL here, because they publish it in Chapter 34 of the User Manual. But the source ... ... ? ? ?
