May 21 03:07:00 <NSLU2-IRC> hello
May 21 03:07:21 <NSLU2-IRC> someone here?
May 21 03:11:36 <NSLU2-IRC> someone here?
May 21 09:34:06 <Brokeslug> Has anyone ever ran into a slug that shows all signs of working but you cant access it in anyway?
May 21 09:34:46 <Brokeslug> it boots normal, if I connect disks to it the lights come on...but nothing I do will let me access it. web browser, telnet..nothing
May 21 09:35:08 <Brokeslug> even tried the bios upgrade utility and it doesnt see it
May 21 09:39:35 <Brokeslug> any help would be great
May 21 14:22:25 <chrta> hello
May 21 14:22:29 <caplink811> hi
May 21 14:23:12 <chrta> i installed openslug 1.7beta and i get "no space left on device" when i enter "touch .sda1root"
May 21 14:23:36 <ByronT> why Openslug 1.7?
May 21 14:23:54 <chrta> it is the default setting
May 21 14:24:13 <ByronT> OpenSlug 1.12 is available in a binary
May 21 14:24:30 <chrta> yes, i saw it today
May 21 14:24:52 <chrta> or should i use upslug -U istead of -u to upload the image?
May 21 14:25:25 <ByronT> I've never used upslug - but everything in linux is case sensitive
May 21 14:26:41 <chrta> sry, my mistake. -U deletes redboot also. i will try the binary image
May 21 14:28:01 <ByronT> and #openslug is where openslug questions can be asked (non-general type questions...)
May 21 14:28:08 <ByronT> :)
May 21 14:28:46 <chrta> thx , openslug is new to me, too
May 21 14:36:22 <jstueve> thanks, caplink:
May 21 14:36:29 <caplink811> hi, so what's uop with the slug
May 21 14:36:40 <caplink811> can you ping the slug?
May 21 14:36:43 <jstueve> I was running Openslug, and couldn't get samba running...
May 21 14:36:54 <jstueve> I can ping it
May 21 14:37:48 <caplink811> at the standard adress, or at least at the adress which you've assigned to the slug?
May 21 14:37:55 <jstueve> yes.  
May 21 14:38:08 <jstueve> any web requests gets an error:
May 21 14:38:27 <caplink811> yes 1 or yes 2 ;-)
May 21 14:38:42 <jstueve> the address I assigned.  
May 21 14:38:45 <caplink811> k
May 21 14:39:26 <caplink811> web request gives which error?
May 21 14:39:53 <jstueve> connection refused.
May 21 14:40:44 <caplink811> hm, but the operation led shows a green light?
May 21 14:41:07 <jstueve> yeah... steady green on ready/status and ethernet (blinks with traffic)
May 21 14:42:11 <caplink811> so i haven't use upslug to flash, but just this afternoon i've flash 4.20 and everything works fine for me
May 21 14:43:04 <jstueve> okay.. I'll try flashing again...
May 21 14:43:16 <caplink811> so i think, it's worth to give redboot a try
May 21 14:45:36 <jstueve> think I might reset the sysconf and see if that helps.
May 21 14:46:13 <caplink811> if i've understand the readme's and the wiki right, than openslug leave sysconf area alone
May 21 14:46:14 <glc> jstueve: Openslug does not include samba.
May 21 14:47:30 <roel_san> hello all
May 21 14:47:42 <roel_san> are there any *-devel packages available for the nslu2?
May 21 14:47:47 <caplink811> morning
May 21 14:48:04 <roel_san> i'm trying to compile vim myself to see if it solves the problems i've been having with it
May 21 14:48:05 <caplink811> define devel packages pls
May 21 14:48:16 <roel_san> but i need ncurses headers
May 21 14:48:34 <roel_san> well, the header files for the libraries that are available, basically
May 21 14:48:46 <caplink811> cross or native?
May 21 14:48:52 <roel_san> native
May 21 14:48:59 <roel_san> if possible
May 21 14:49:08 <caplink811> so you could make an ipkg install mom, search for the package
May 21 14:49:51 <caplink811> ipkg install crosstool-native
May 21 14:50:13 <caplink811> that is the completly development environment
May 21 14:50:29 <roel_san> hmm
May 21 14:50:32 <roel_san> i have that installed
May 21 14:50:38 <roel_san> but it doesn't include the ncurses headers
May 21 14:51:15 <caplink811> if you have checkout the cvs, and then do a make vim, this should work
May 21 14:51:40 <caplink811> s/the cvs/the complete cvs
May 21 14:51:58 <roel_san> i'll have to check the vim makefile that is in cvs then to see how they solved it there
May 21 14:52:06 <roel_san> vim doesn't work correctly for me
May 21 14:52:27 <roel_san> that's why i was trying to build it from source as distributed from vim.org
May 21 14:52:45 <caplink811> if vim needs ncurses so the vim.mk should stage the ncurses lib and headers
May 21 14:53:08 <roel_san> yeah
May 21 14:53:26 <caplink811> running vim.mk, now make ncurses-stage is running
May 21 14:53:33 <roel_san> i was just hoping that the headers would be available in some other repository or something
May 21 14:53:40 <roel_san> thanks, i'll try it
May 21 14:54:48 <caplink811> roel_san: if you've not staged ncurses yet, than the main makefile will do it for you, and download and make ncurses
May 21 14:55:36 <roel_san> oh i see, and from there on i can compile my own vim with those staged ncurses header files as well?
May 21 14:55:52 <roel_san> and those staged header files will match with the installed libs from the ncurses package?
May 21 14:55:56 <caplink811> yeah, so i think
May 21 14:56:18 <caplink811> if you modifiy the vim.mk in unslung/make
May 21 15:03:26 <roel_san> hmm, i get an access denied for cvs access to cvs.digium.com
May 21 15:03:54 <roel_san> oh no nevermind
May 21 15:04:04 <caplink811> what you've tried?
May 21 15:04:05 <roel_san> that's for compiling asterisk
May 21 15:04:14 <roel_san> just did 'make' in the root directory
May 21 15:04:26 <roel_san> of the cvs checkout
May 21 15:04:40 <caplink811> if i remember right, then make will build all
May 21 15:05:02 <roel_san> yeah i think so too
May 21 15:05:14 <caplink811> time for control+c ;-)
May 21 15:05:16 <roel_san> but that's not what i need
May 21 15:05:27 <roel_san> well it stopped already after the cvs access error :)
May 21 15:05:41 <caplink811> i think, you would run a make vim
May 21 15:05:57 <caplink811> in the unslung directory
May 21 15:06:18 <roel_san> yeah i'm running it now
May 21 15:06:28 <roel_san> seems to work ok now
May 21 15:06:42 <roel_san> quite a nifty system this whole ipkg thing
May 21 15:06:44 <caplink811> let it build all what is needed, and then you can modify the make7vim.mk
May 21 15:06:51 <roel_san> still have to get used to it though :)
May 21 15:07:16 <caplink811> s/make7vim.mk/make/vim.mk
May 21 15:25:41 <caplink811> roel_san: so, at my native build slug, vim builds fine, so this should happens at your system too
May 21 15:30:13 <roel_san> caplink811: it's still running, downloading of zlib from sourceforge seems to fail but it keeps trying
May 21 15:30:21 <roel_san> i'll just let it run overnight
May 21 15:30:42 <roel_san> it's half past midnight here, i'll see how it works out tomorrow
May 21 15:30:47 <roel_san> thanks for your help
May 21 15:30:53 <roel_san> i think i'll get it figured out
May 21 15:30:56 <caplink811> so, your in my timezone, its time for me to leave the channel, good night
May 21 15:31:08 <roel_san> my problem seems to be more termcap related anyway
May 21 15:31:28 <roel_san> if i set my TERM to vt220 it works ok
May 21 15:31:33 <caplink811> hm, i'm not a developer, more a supporter
May 21 15:31:40 <roel_san> goodnight
May 21 15:31:51 <roel_san> see you tomorrow probably ;)
May 21 16:02:12 <gold_panos2001> hi
May 21 16:02:19 <caplink811-away> morning
May 21 16:03:12 <gold_panos2001> can i ask something
May 21 16:03:27 <caplink811-away> sure, but dunno if i've an answer
May 21 16:04:11 <caplink811-away> communication is the sense of this channel
May 21 16:05:20 <gold_panos2001> i need to write a script to /opt/etc/init.d/Sxx... to start something but i must use the command cd to change to home dir
May 21 16:05:36 <gold_panos2001> but everytime i do restart it doesnt work
May 21 16:06:23 <caplink811> but if you do a ./Sxxbla everything works well?
May 21 16:06:32 <gold_panos2001> yes
May 21 16:06:51 <caplink811> well. what's in the script
May 21 16:06:54 <caplink811> ?
May 21 16:07:10 <gold_panos2001> i need to start mldonkey
May 21 16:07:29 <gold_panos2001> :-)
May 21 16:07:38 <gold_panos2001> that's all
May 21 16:07:43 <caplink811> should be something like /opt/bin/blaprog &
May 21 16:08:22 <caplink811> could you c+p your script pls
May 21 16:08:24 <gold_panos2001> yes but before this i do cd /home/user/mldonkey/mlnet
May 21 16:08:50 <caplink811> do you run with an hard disk attached? i think so
May 21 16:09:40 <caplink811> AND have you disk quotas disabled?
May 21 16:10:11 <gold_panos2001> yes
May 21 16:10:14 <gold_panos2001> cd /home/user/mldonkey                                                                                                               
May 21 16:10:41 <caplink811> yes - hard disk, or yes - quotas disabled
May 21 16:10:49 <gold_panos2001> yes hard disk 
May 21 16:10:58 <gold_panos2001> quatas disable
May 21 16:11:05 <chrta> shouldn't this script be linked from /etc/rcX.d/ to start automatically?
May 21 16:11:38 <gold_panos2001> only from /opt/etc/init.d/
May 21 16:12:33 <caplink811> AND have you a script like rc.quota with something like #!/bin/sh return 0 in your /unslung directory
May 21 16:13:38 <caplink811> if you want to start a daemon, then /opt/etc/init.d/Sxxbla is the right place
May 21 16:14:07 <gold_panos2001> this i have done
May 21 16:14:19 <caplink811> if you want overide a linksys rc.script than you should use /unslung/rc.script to divert the original script
May 21 16:14:30 <gold_panos2001> but when i put the command cd ...... it doesnt work
May 21 16:14:42 <gold_panos2001> maybe it doesn t find the cd
May 21 16:14:44 <caplink811> k, so your disk should be writable if your Sxxscript start up
May 21 16:15:19 <gold_panos2001> the cd command where is it link
May 21 16:15:36 <gold_panos2001> i check busybox but it doent
May 21 16:16:39 <gold_panos2001> the script it works fine when i started while i am logging to the nslu2
May 21 16:16:40 <caplink811> so myself runs a script at startup
May 21 16:16:42 <caplink811> [root@linus init.d]$ cat S99musicserver
May 21 16:16:42 <caplink811> #! /bin/sh
May 21 16:16:42 <caplink811> #
May 21 16:16:42 <caplink811> cd /share/hdd/data/mp3
May 21 16:16:42 <caplink811> #./musicserver &
May 21 16:16:44 <caplink811> ./mediaserver &
May 21 16:16:49 <caplink811> and this works well for me
May 21 16:17:18 <caplink811> so i think, it's time to post your script, to let us see what went wrong
May 21 16:17:40 <gold_panos2001> the executable ./mediaserver where it be
May 21 16:17:52 <gold_panos2001> is it to ....../mp3
May 21 16:17:59 <caplink811> it's in /share/hdd/data/mp3
May 21 16:20:17 <caplink811> it might be helpful, that you imliment something like pwd > /opt/tmp/whereiam in your script just to control where the problem could be
May 21 16:20:38 <caplink811> s/imliment/implement
May 21 16:21:44 <caplink811> after the cd command, so you can look after the startup, to which place your cd goes
May 21 16:22:14 <gold_panos2001> i try this now
May 21 16:22:32 <caplink811> let the slug fly ;-)
May 21 16:25:13 <gold_panos2001> what firmware do you have
May 21 16:25:45 <caplink811> unslung4.20
May 21 16:25:53 <gold_panos2001> ok the same
May 21 16:27:25 <caplink811> so, what' s the result of your last test?
May 21 16:28:10 <gold_panos2001> something is wrong
May 21 16:28:46 <gold_panos2001> i put at the end of the command >/tmp/file to see the errors but nothing
May 21 16:29:18 <gold_panos2001> but i forgot the pwd
May 21 16:29:45 <caplink811> but > is equal to touch, and so the /tmp/file should  exist
May 21 16:31:32 <gold_panos2001> it exist
May 21 16:31:42 <gold_panos2001> but nothing inside
May 21 16:33:22 <caplink811> thats right, cause you only touch the file
May 21 16:33:44 <gold_panos2001> the command pwd after the cd gives me a /
May 21 16:34:04 <gold_panos2001> no change directory
May 21 16:34:50 <caplink811> cd /home/user/mldonkey/mlnet<enter>
May 21 16:35:03 <caplink811> pwd<enter> should give /home/user/mldonkey/mlnet
May 21 16:35:13 <gold_panos2001> yes
May 21 16:35:28 <gold_panos2001> without mlnet 
May 21 16:35:36 <gold_panos2001> the mlnet is the executable
May 21 16:35:43 <caplink811> ahja
May 21 16:36:03 <caplink811> so in your script you would have a line with
May 21 16:36:09 <caplink811> cd /home/user/mldonkey
May 21 16:36:12 <gold_panos2001> yes
May 21 16:36:20 <caplink811> ./mlnet &
May 21 16:36:31 <gold_panos2001> after the cd
May 21 16:36:45 <caplink811> in a new line after the cd line
May 21 16:37:11 <gold_panos2001> yes
May 21 16:37:36 <caplink811> if mlnet have the possibillity to run detached from a terminal
May 21 16:37:55 <caplink811> may be that you must use screen
May 21 16:38:38 <gold_panos2001> i know that
May 21 16:39:42 <caplink811> so, we have to make sure, that the cd command work,
May 21 16:39:49 <gold_panos2001> can you check something to your nlsu2
May 21 16:40:02 <caplink811> when you put something like that in your S22file
May 21 16:40:03 <gold_panos2001> where is the path of cd
May 21 16:40:11 <caplink811> #!/bin/sh
May 21 16:40:15 <caplink811> cd /home/user/mldonkey
May 21 16:40:27 <caplink811> pwd > /opt/myflag
May 21 16:40:36 <caplink811> ./mlnet
May 21 16:41:00 <gold_panos2001> the file myflag gives me /
May 21 16:41:13 <caplink811> cd is an internal sh or bash command
May 21 16:42:39 <gold_panos2001> sh --help tells that it called from busybox
May 21 16:43:03 <gold_panos2001> busybox --help gives all the commands expect cd
May 21 16:43:49 <gold_panos2001> may be you have a symlink to cd --busybox to your bin
May 21 16:44:10 <caplink811> i'm using busybox 0.6 as root
May 21 16:44:20 <caplink811> so its the build in from linksys
May 21 16:44:35 <gold_panos2001> BusyBox v0.60.4 (2004.05.28-07:40+0000) multi-call binary
May 21 16:44:58 <caplink811> but only help at the prompt gives you 
May 21 16:45:07 <caplink811> Built-in commands:
May 21 16:45:07 <caplink811> -------------------
May 21 16:45:07 <caplink811>         . : alias break builtin cd chdir continue eval exec exit export
May 21 16:45:44 <caplink811> so cd is always, also at startup avaiable
May 21 16:46:14 <gold_panos2001> busybox cd ???
May 21 16:46:21 <gold_panos2001> busybox cp
May 21 16:46:22 <gold_panos2001> ???
May 21 16:46:27 <gold_panos2001> check it
May 21 16:47:14 <gold_panos2001> all the commands from busybox called: busybox command
May 21 16:47:24 <gold_panos2001> so cd doent work
May 21 16:47:28 <caplink811> that are build in commands from /bin/sh which links to /bin/busybox
May 21 16:47:58 <caplink811> nopa type only help<enter> at the command prompt
May 21 16:48:03 <gold_panos2001> so my problem is that my slug doent find the cd
May 21 16:48:33 <gold_panos2001> i use bash
May 21 16:48:44 <gold_panos2001> when i login
May 21 16:49:03 <caplink811> yeah, but your startup scripts run with /bin/sh
May 21 16:49:25 <gold_panos2001> all of them
May 21 16:49:32 <gold_panos2001> all other works fine
May 21 16:51:04 <caplink811> so pls let me see your script might be that 4 eyes see more than two
May 21 16:53:44 <gold_panos2001> i change the first line to #!/opt/bin/bash
May 21 16:53:52 <gold_panos2001> and now the cd works fine
May 21 16:54:27 <caplink811> at startup, or just when you type Sxxbla?
May 21 16:54:28 <gold_panos2001> the pwd >/tmp/file gave me the correct path
May 21 16:54:43 <gold_panos2001> on the file Sxxbla
May 21 16:55:06 <caplink811> so, lets verifiy this behaviour with a reboot
May 21 16:55:26 <gold_panos2001> this behavour is after the reboot
May 21 16:56:01 <gold_panos2001> with #!/bin/sh the cd it doesn't work
May 21 16:56:07 <gold_panos2001> for me
May 21 16:57:51 <caplink811> thats quite curious, but if this works for you, everything went well
May 21 17:01:19 <gold_panos2001> quite curious
May 21 17:01:29 <gold_panos2001> what can i say
May 21 17:01:47 <gold_panos2001> but i must thank you for the help
May 21 17:03:11 <caplink811> denada
May 21 17:03:58 <caplink811> i think we're in the same tz and in my tz it's 2 o'clock in the morning, time to leave, so have a nice sunday
May 21 17:04:14 <gold_panos2001> yes
May 21 17:04:29 <gold_panos2001> you too
May 21 17:04:45 <caplink811> well, just another satisfied customer ;-), gnite all
May 21 17:05:01 <chrta> good night
May 21 17:05:05 <gold_panos2001> gn
May 21 18:13:07 <chrta> good night
