**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Mar 09 23:59:56 2005 Mar 10 01:09:08 hi Mar 10 06:03:08 hi Mar 10 06:04:37 can someone help me compile a ftdi_sio kenel module for my NSLU2 ? Mar 10 06:09:09 right just flashed firmware and tried to install cups but keeps saying no space left on device Mar 10 06:13:45 Hi Horx. I am a complete newbie (got my NSLU2 today) but I think there was a link on the wili explaining how to use the /data space on a disk in addition to the /config Mar 10 06:14:06 Gorx and wiki :) Mar 10 07:04:50 yo Mar 10 08:45:24 leave Mar 10 15:16:00 bleh Mar 11 09:48:33 hey, caplink811-away, I'll leave this in your capable hands.... ;) Mar 11 09:58:35 yo peeps Mar 11 10:38:39 byron Mar 11 10:38:54 got cups installed and plugged the printer in but it says "Printer not connected; will retry in 30 seconds..." Mar 11 10:39:40 I had to reboot my unslung nslu2 and then I followed the troubleshooting steps on the wiki Mar 11 10:40:31 what port did you set ur printer to i f its in disk2 port on the slug? Mar 11 10:40:36 #usb port1? Mar 11 10:41:23 I did all of my configuration via the .conf files via ssh Mar 11 10:41:27 not in the web interface Mar 11 11:17:25 Gorx, if everything is working but cups, why not check with the CUPS website Mar 11 11:17:52 it sounds like your nslu2 is humming along, but cups has a problem... Mar 11 11:20:14 byron got cups working now Mar 11 11:20:18 all i want to know is: Mar 11 11:20:30 how do i get /opt/etc/init.d to start at boot? Mar 11 11:21:24 uh, it already does? Mar 11 11:22:07 it doesnt Mar 11 11:22:24 ive gotta do /opt/etc/init.d start every time to get cups working Mar 11 11:23:40 maybe it's just one particular something not starting? Mar 11 11:23:51 im not sure how could i tell? Mar 11 11:24:05 check log messages /var/log Mar 11 11:24:37 what do I type, im a noob you see lol Mar 11 11:25:44 are you saying that you don't know how to change directories? Mar 11 11:25:54 and then view the log files? Mar 11 11:25:58 yes... Mar 11 11:30:35 whats the command to view? Mar 11 11:31:41 http://linux.oreilly.com/ why don't you go there? you really want to be up to speed on linux before you start doing something that could kill your nslu2 Mar 11 11:32:27 all i need to do is to view this fine Mar 11 11:33:43 you're saying that - but what if some malicious person told you to "rm -RF /*" - which would essentially wipe everything clean off your system? Mar 11 11:34:13 but they wont Mar 11 11:34:25 would you blindly follow that direction - I think you might, but you need to KNOW what that would do Mar 11 11:34:34 come on all i need is to get /opt/etc/init.d to start Mar 11 11:34:58 but I'm telling you that init.d ALREADY runs when the device is booted Mar 11 11:35:33 and you too would know that if you understood more about what you are doing to the device Mar 11 11:35:45 hence my pointing you to linux.oreilly.com Mar 11 11:35:58 yes but why then if i start init.d does cups suddenyl work? Mar 11 11:38:33 probably because just one thing doesn't start when it should - and since you are essentially telling the device to restart everything (no matter what) it starts the second time around Mar 11 11:38:50 that's why you check the log files... Mar 11 11:38:58 to determine what is not starting... Mar 11 11:39:39 because really, to start cups up after the device has been booted, you should only have to start the SXXcups file Mar 11 11:42:40 would printer.o have anything to do with it if it says something like 'configuring printer.o' when i tell init.d to start Mar 11 11:44:21 I don't know... Mar 11 11:59:58 any1 how do i get printer.o to start at boot? Mar 11 12:30:13 any1 how do i get printer.o to start at boot? Mar 11 13:56:02 hey peeps Mar 11 13:56:22 hello Gorx Mar 11 13:57:14 anyway got any solutions to my printer.o question/ Mar 11 13:57:21 was told to come here Mar 11 13:57:24 by glc Mar 11 13:57:47 yes, I saw that Mar 11 13:58:00 and? Mar 11 13:58:07 I've told you that you have overcomplicated things... Mar 11 13:58:28 y what have i done? Mar 11 13:58:28 you should never have to see the printer.o issue unless you built your cups installation by hand Mar 11 13:58:58 well i have reinstaklled it twice Mar 11 13:59:24 you really really really need to figure out what / how linux works before you do something that bricks your nslu2 Mar 11 13:59:37 i sorta know Mar 11 13:59:49 I told you to check the logs in /var/log Mar 11 14:00:38 anyone who has the miniscule bit of linux experience would know exactly how to do that - using cd to get to the directory and then using vi to check the messages Mar 11 14:01:19 you don't have that - and evidently - would rather ask for exact - step by step - "type this and press enter" instructions Mar 11 14:01:43 if any of us were actually being paid to do this, the request(s) wouldn't be an issue Mar 11 14:02:00 but ALL of us are donating time... Mar 11 14:03:28 some kind soul might be willing to walk you step by step through this.. however, I am trying to work (at a client's office no less) and the best I can do is to point you to the wiki and also to linux.oreilly.com Mar 11 14:03:43 so that you CAN LEARN to get around the nslu2 by yourself Mar 11 14:03:56 you are the biggest fag ever Mar 11 14:04:28 good bye Mar 11 14:04:46 bye go fuck some small boys cause you know you like it Mar 11 14:04:48 twat Mar 11 20:28:12 deop ka6sox-away Mar 11 20:28:26 heh Mar 11 20:28:55 doh... that could have taken a while to fix Mar 11 20:29:22 /rip -tear Mar 11 22:10:59 * ByronT is away -( zzzZZZzzz )- at 12:11a -( P:Off / L:Off )- **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Mar 11 23:59:57 2005
