I don't know of precompiled packages, maybe someone else does? :)
well, I'll find a place ;-)
Offering kernel module packages is rather cumbersome as the kernel modules has to match the given kernel _exactly_. I'm not sure how far this goes (some tests would be needed) but I'm sure you would need the same sources (including all patches, same compiler, may be even binary compability?).
You're right, modules are an individual thing. I rather hoped for a hint to a backported openwrt-0.9 makefile ;-).
Batman has an internal blackhole detection. The olsr dyn_gw is a hack (its just pinging the outside world which works in many cases) - batman has this functionality inside. As every traffic flows through the batman tunnel (forth and back) batman can "observe" the traffic and detect blackholes (nodes announcing internet without a connection) much better. As soon as you generate traffic batman will switch the gateway.
It is working as you described, here it takes about one minute to switch to an active gateway.
greetings, Christian
