Nov 22 11:38:55 <myren> $16 is insane
Nov 22 12:25:07 <NSLU2-IRC> ?nick Boomcar
Nov 22 12:47:44 <brynge> Hia, anyone there?
Nov 22 12:47:55 <caplink811_log> ~ask
Nov 22 12:47:58 <capbot> If you have a question, just ask, maybe someone have an answer... sometimes.
Nov 22 12:49:17 <brynge> Cool, what's the status of R63 Unslung? Been reading the irc logs and it seems that some work is being done.
Nov 22 12:49:49 <brynge> Do we have a runnable Beta yet, or is it miles away?
Nov 22 12:50:35 <caplink811_log> dunno, it is still pending, but i've lost the focus on this topic, running debonaras meanwhile
Nov 22 12:52:29 <caplink811_log> brynge,  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nslu2-linux/database?method=reportRows&tbl=12
Nov 22 12:52:30 <brynge> Got the slug as I didn't want to spend time messing around too much at the console prompt...
Nov 22 12:53:17 <caplink811_log> there is no difference between ipkg install bla and apt-get install bla
Nov 22 12:53:39 <brynge> not really
Nov 22 12:53:56 <caplink811_log> and the choice is much bigger
Nov 22 12:54:15 <brynge> Ran a debian server for a couple of years, so I should manage
Nov 22 12:54:45 <caplink811_log> 568packages : 15k packages
Nov 22 12:55:48 <brynge> debonaras, is that the same as debianslug
Nov 22 12:55:50 <brynge> ?
Nov 22 12:56:05 <caplink811_log> debian on openslug, yes
Nov 22 12:57:04 <caplink811_log> capbot , hi
Nov 22 12:57:04 <capbot> hola, caplink811_log
Nov 22 12:57:24 <caplink811_log> capbot , debonaras is The Big Endian DebianSlug (also known as OpenDebianSlug, because it uses OpenSlug as a bootstrap and recovery mechanism) does not require any modification to the NSLU2 hardware, and can also use the internal ethernet port.
Nov 22 12:57:26 <capbot> caplink811_log: okay
Nov 22 12:57:32 <caplink811_log> ~debonaras
Nov 22 12:57:32 <capbot> well, debonaras is The Big Endian DebianSlug (also known as OpenDebianSlug, because it uses OpenSlug as a bootstrap and recovery mechanism) does not require any modification to the NSLU2 hardware, and can also use the internal ethernet port.
Nov 22 12:57:44 <caplink811_log> ~botsnack
Nov 22 12:57:44 <capbot> :), caplink811_log
Nov 22 12:58:16 <brynge> Ok, I might have a go at it then. Thanks!
Nov 22 12:58:57 <caplink811_log> it is realy easy, flash openslug-2.7-beta, and follow the readme at http://www.debonaras.org/
Nov 22 13:00:31 <caplink811_log> sorry, that's the way i'm gone.. http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/DebianSlug/OpenDebianSlug
Nov 22 13:01:40 <brynge> cool, thanks again

Nov 22 14:06:45 <caplink811_log> find / -name bla

Nov 22 14:09:16 <caplink811_log> Mika_,  not much, 70 or 80 lp's, but i made a test, so i need around 2-3 hours until i get a satisfying result
Nov 22 14:09:47 <Mika_> so it cost some time.. :) can u not downl it direct as MP3
Nov 22 14:10:18 <caplink811_log> no, not that kond of music, much RnR RnB and RockaBilly

Nov 22 14:54:31 * Mika_ go to bed... nice night all
Nov 22 14:59:59 <dennisllevens> was sup!
Nov 22 15:00:11 <dennisllevens> anyone available for some assistance?
Nov 22 15:00:19 <caplink811_log> ~ask
Nov 22 15:00:21 <capbot> If you have a question, just ask, maybe someone have an answer... sometimes.
Nov 22 15:00:32 <dennisllevens> ko thanks
Nov 22 15:00:50 <dennisllevens> just want to confirm that I should be seeing around 10MB a second transfer between my pc and the slug?
Nov 22 15:00:59 <dennisllevens> I am seeing 5MB at best right now
Nov 22 15:01:23 <dennisllevens> a few reviews seem to indicate that on a 100mbit network I should get similar transfer that I did from pc to pc using 100mbit cards
Nov 22 15:02:32 <caplink811_log> http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Info/LmBenchResults , bottom of this page
Nov 22 15:02:44 <dennisllevens> k
Nov 22 15:03:25 <dennisllevens> the other question I have is what is the most popular external enclosure right now to use? My generic has a fan is so loud that I had to remove it from my entertainment unit
Nov 22 15:03:33 <caplink811_log> and http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Info/Performance
Nov 22 15:04:51 <caplink811_log> well, i could aónly talk about my expirience, and myself use an icy case 350U imho, which works in combination with a samsung spinpoint 80GB very well, and stable too
Nov 22 15:05:37 <dennisllevens> great, thanks for the info. I will check it out
Nov 22 15:05:48 <caplink811_log> but you should have a look at the device list at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nslu2-general/database?method=reportRows&tbl=1
Nov 22 15:06:20 <dennisllevens> hmmm, wonder why I am seeing only 5MB a second to and from the nslu2?
Nov 22 15:06:41 <dennisllevens> Looks like not uncommon to see 10 to 11MB/sec according to the wiki and some other reviews
Nov 22 15:07:49 <caplink811_log> what kinf of transfer you would use ? smb/nfs/ftp?
Nov 22 15:08:58 <dennisllevens> hmmm, copying to and from nslu2 (ext3) and a windows xp pro (ntfs)
Nov 22 15:09:17 <dennisllevens> going to test ftp later tonight
Nov 22 15:10:50 <dennisllevens> you have the Icy IB-350U-BL right? no fan? no issues with the drive staying cool?
Nov 22 15:11:08 <caplink811_log> yes, no problems at all
Nov 22 15:11:19 <caplink811_log> and no fan
Nov 22 15:22:10 <dennisllevens> off to lunch, be back later for some more questions :)
Nov 22 15:23:14 <dennisllevens> I do like the icy box, would be nice if someone came up with a way to make one unit with one power supply to handle the nslu2 and an external enclosure, makes things big when you have both and two power cords
Nov 22 16:41:58 <dennisllevens> sup
Nov 22 16:42:48 <dennisllevens> comparing owc mercury elite, icy box, vantec nexstar, and a few others. Curious if anyone has a recommendation?
Nov 22 17:22:33 <dennisllevens> anyone here?
Nov 23 00:42:02 <cheef-daniel>
