Aug 27 14:56:38 Trekker, Aug 27 14:56:42 ~ask Aug 27 14:56:44 If you have a question, just ask, maybe someone have an answer... sometimes. Aug 27 17:01:07 Thanks, I've posted my question to the Yahoo nslu2-general group Aug 27 20:15:28 3[1414%0303] (14freenode03) when [14Eiffel_03] joined [14#nslu2-general03] a new record has been set, the previous record was set on (14Sun Aug 27 21:55:34 200603) at the moment there are [144503] users on [14#nslu2-general03] @ freenode!!! Aug 27 20:15:30 Awesome. Aug 27 22:02:25 Hello, anyone using a pocket pc to access files on the NSLU2 over the network ? Aug 27 22:14:57 I wasn't able to access to see the NSLU2 at all with r63 so I,m a bit worried of installing unslug Aug 27 22:24:59 accessing files using which client? Aug 27 22:57:51 giallu : Resco File explorer or the normal Windows mobile file browser. Aug 27 22:58:14 I can't map the network share at all as I can't see the NSLU2 Aug 27 22:58:22 so, through samba... I can try that. wait :) Aug 27 22:59:22 cool thanks Aug 27 23:03:59 mmm can't access it with the file browser. anyway, I think the problem here is the address ("slug" is not resolved) Aug 27 23:04:28 did you try with the ip adress ? Aug 27 23:04:38 yap Aug 27 23:04:46 yah sounds like the same problem I had Aug 27 23:05:04 since samba was updated something might be broken with pocket pcs Aug 27 23:05:47 well. I can always download files with the http server ;) Aug 27 23:06:35 true Aug 28 02:03:57 * joshin gives his slug a hug Aug 28 02:22:57 anyone have any experience compiling a util for a slug? native or crosscompiling... which is more straightforward? Aug 28 02:24:10 I've read the howto's I found on the subject. Made native seem easier. Just looking for practical experience/advice. Aug 28 02:24:45 unslung v. 5.5 if I remember correctly. Aug 28 02:25:30 cat /.unslung - V2.3R29-uNSLUng-5.5-beta Aug 28 02:26:21 * eikenberry loiters for a bit waiting for idlers. Aug 28 02:30:56 eikenberry, I've had my slug for 3 days... However I've built software on it just fine. Aug 28 02:31:31 I'm having some issues with openslug and switched over to DebianSlug and installed a dev environment using apt. Aug 28 02:31:40 I've then been able to build some small apps just fine. Aug 28 02:32:26 Tonight I'll kick off a crossdev build on my linux boxen so that I can use distcc to hand off the compile jobs from the poor little re-clocked processor. :) Aug 28 02:32:49 You crosscompiled using the debianslug crosscompiling howto as an initial guide? Aug 28 02:33:11 So you were compiling on the slug previously? Aug 28 02:33:17 eikenberry, nope. I haven't started crosscompiling yet. Aug 28 02:33:25 cool. Aug 28 02:33:46 Switching from openslug to debianslug... was it pretty easy? Aug 28 02:34:23 I went with unslung initially as I was unsure how I was going to admin it. But I pretty much just ssh in just like any other box. Aug 28 02:34:28 I started off hoping to use openembedded and ran into a few bugs (most of which have been fixed). While waiting I went to debianslug (very easy to switch) where I built a build environment to play. Aug 28 02:34:30 So I've been thinking about switching. Aug 28 02:34:57 debianslug uses an openslug little-endian build to bootstrap onto a hard drive (or in my case a 1G microdrive) Aug 28 02:35:45 eikenberry, the debianslug docs are good. follow them and you should be good. Especially if you have some linux experience. Aug 28 02:36:15 plenty. use debian normally as well, so it should be no problem. Aug 28 02:36:59 Sounds good. Probably try with the unslung version first... don't have time right now to play but I kind of need the util. Aug 28 02:37:05 Thanks for the tips. :) Aug 28 02:37:06 Have fun then! But if you compile, distcc is very useful. I'd recommend not using your slug to compile anything with it since it will have its hands full just handling the preprocessing. Aug 28 02:37:15 NP. Good luck! Aug 28 02:37:42 thanks. Aug 28 02:46:25 crap... need to go. thanks again joshin. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Aug 28 02:59:56 2006
