Jan 03 03:09:08 <c0ffee> moin
Jan 03 03:10:10 <c0ffee> with openslug 2.7-beta my network connections dies from time time. I found some Wiki page that suggests to patch the network driver, but afaik openslug-2.7-beta already contains the patched version
Jan 03 03:10:16 <c0ffee> what else could cause this?
Jan 03 03:29:20 <c0ffee> hum, and why is there no watchdog package for openslug 2.7?
Jan 03 05:35:23 <eFfeM> neotheone, rwitby said this after you left:
Jan 03 05:35:25 <eFfeM> rwhitby and please don't take these responses the wrong way - it's nothing about you personally, but if every person using openslug or unslung (all 15000 of them) were to ask these types of questions here, then we would have no time left to actually develop the firmware
Jan 03 05:35:49 <eFfeM> oops the nick was to the left and got in the cut and paste
Jan 03 05:36:15 <neotheone> hehe like i told you, im not a newbie, so i wont take this personal ofcourse
Jan 03 05:36:19 <neotheone> i know dev chans are for the devs
Jan 03 05:36:22 <neotheone> help chans for users
Jan 03 05:36:24 <neotheone> thats it ;)
Jan 03 05:36:46 <eFfeM> no problem
Jan 03 05:37:07 <eFfeM> anyway fdisk is for creating the partition.
Jan 03 05:37:16 <eFfeM> putting a filesystem on it is doen my mkfs
Jan 03 05:37:23 <eFfeM> ^my^by^
Jan 03 05:37:39 <eFfeM> (and that is what in the pc is sometimes called formattint)
Jan 03 05:39:09 <neotheone> thanks!
Jan 03 05:39:10 <neotheone> uhm
Jan 03 05:39:16 <neotheone> when creating a partition with fdisk,
Jan 03 05:39:20 <neotheone> +1500M = 1500MB ?
Jan 03 05:39:25 <drif> how do I set locale on unslung?
Jan 03 05:40:18 <eFfeM> neotheone, no idea, I use openslug, and the fdisk there does not have a + option
Jan 03 05:40:19 <eFfeM> Usage: fdisk [-l] [-b SSZ] [-u] device
Jan 03 05:40:28 <eFfeM> drif, no idea
Jan 03 05:40:37 <eFfeM> never done that
Jan 03 05:51:31 <neotheone> hmm
Jan 03 05:51:41 <neotheone> just created partitions
Jan 03 05:51:48 <neotheone> and mounted the first
Jan 03 05:52:07 <neotheone> root@networkstorage:/mnt# ls

Jan 03 05:52:34 <neotheone> ls: ./nslu2-sarge-0.2: Input/output error
Jan 03 05:52:34 <neotheone> linuxrc      lost+found   public       quota.user   quota.user~
Jan 03 05:53:03 <eFfeM> neotheone, where did you mount
Jan 03 05:53:22 <eFfeM> I've only seen this if my usb disk gets detached
Jan 03 05:53:52 <eFfeM> did you do a mkfs on your newly created partition?
Jan 03 05:54:19 <neotheone> nope,
Jan 03 05:54:26 <neotheone> but doesnt the partition need to be empty first
Jan 03 05:54:30 <neotheone> ?
Jan 03 05:54:43 <neotheone> thats what i think is wierd, i deleted my old paritions and created new ones
Jan 03 05:54:45 <neotheone> now i mounted a new
Jan 03 05:54:48 <neotheone> and its not empty
Jan 03 05:55:18 <eFfeM> that is correct
Jan 03 05:55:35 <eFfeM> fsck only manages the administration of the partition
Jan 03 05:55:40 <eFfeM> actually of the disk
Jan 03 05:55:53 <eFfeM> but does not empty the partition
Jan 03 05:56:13 <eFfeM> so you ended up with what was lying there.
Jan 03 05:56:29 <eFfeM> best thing is to unmount and create a clean filesystem with mkfs
Jan 03 05:58:36 <neotheone> uhm
Jan 03 05:58:39 <neotheone> well
Jan 03 05:58:44 <neotheone> the partition is not mounted?
Jan 03 05:58:46 <neotheone> what i did is
Jan 03 05:58:49 <neotheone> i started my nslu2
Jan 03 05:58:53 <neotheone> didnt mount any hd
Jan 03 05:59:02 <neotheone> started fdisk, deleted all partitions
Jan 03 05:59:08 <neotheone> created new partitions
Jan 03 05:59:16 <neotheone> write partition table
Jan 03 05:59:20 <neotheone> and then reboot..
Jan 03 05:59:29 <neotheone> then i mounted the hd again /dev/sda1
Jan 03 05:59:34 <neotheone> (/dev/sda1)
Jan 03 05:59:49 <eFfeM> yeah, but you did not do mkfs on /dev/sda1 first!!
Jan 03 06:00:04 <eFfeM> unmount then do mkfs, then mount again
Jan 03 06:01:58 <neotheone> uhm
Jan 03 06:02:05 <neotheone> ext3 is better than ext2
Jan 03 06:02:05 <neotheone> right?
Jan 03 06:02:36 <eFfeM> yes
Jan 03 08:52:07 <neotheone> hmmm
Jan 03 08:52:17 <neotheone> can anyone help me with smbd?
Jan 03 08:52:35 <neotheone> i created a share and gave rights to a user to view it
Jan 03 08:52:35 <eFfeM> neotheone, use swat
Jan 03 08:52:39 <neotheone> used swat
Jan 03 08:52:44 <eFfeM> ok
Jan 03 08:52:45 <neotheone> but whatever i do
Jan 03 08:52:52 <neotheone> when i try to access the share it says i dont have permission
Jan 03 08:52:59 <neotheone> when i try to access the main dir even
Jan 03 08:53:17 <eFfeM> sorry can't help with that, never played with that, on my home net everyone has access...
Jan 03 11:01:54 <neotheone> anyone know if the twonkyvision mediaserver will run on debian too?
Jan 03 13:24:07 <Boomcar> Morning ;o)
Jan 03 13:27:07 <drif> late sleeper, eh :P
Jan 03 13:27:32 <Boomcar> ;)
Jan 03 13:29:10 <Boomcar> Drif: U didn't install a mailserver on the slug, did u? ;o)
Jan 03 13:30:08 <drif> ip has blocked smtp :-\
Jan 03 13:30:16 <drif> isp I mean
Jan 03 13:30:26 <Boomcar> that's too bad
Jan 03 13:30:49 <Boomcar> Did u try phpsysinfo then?
Jan 03 13:30:50 <drif> doesn't really matter - I use mostly webmail
Jan 03 13:30:52 <Boomcar> ;)
Jan 03 13:31:19 <Boomcar> These are the 2 things I still want to get running
Jan 03 13:31:27 <Boomcar> on this slug
Jan 03 13:34:49 <drif> mailserver and phpsysinfo?
Jan 03 13:37:05 <Boomcar> yes
Jan 03 13:41:17 <drif> boomcar: have you installed the server yet?
Jan 03 13:41:31 <Boomcar> which?
Jan 03 13:41:55 <drif> xmail perhaps?
Jan 03 13:42:32 <Boomcar> I think this is the best choice only I really don't have a clue how to configure it
Jan 03 13:42:53 <Boomcar> I installed it on the slug b4 it crashed
Jan 03 13:43:13 <Boomcar> But I couldn't configure it in 48 hours ;o)
Jan 03 13:45:06 <drif> have you checked http://www.xmailserver.org/Readme.html#configuration
Jan 03 13:45:53 <Boomcar> I did but I came to....
Jan 03 13:47:50 <Boomcar> dunno
Jan 03 13:53:54 <Boomcar> tomorrow....another day.......
Jan 03 13:53:57 <Boomcar> c ya
Jan 03 14:30:57 <drif> evening bazz
Jan 03 14:39:53 <littlewhitey> just checking, is it alright to freely remove drives from the nslu2 (whilst its on) if it isn't the boot drive?
Jan 03 16:02:24 <Arr> Has anyone had a chance to play about with the extra usb ports, i was thinking of perminantly soldering a flash drive onto port 1 and routing one of the unused ports to the socket...
