**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Sep 17 02:59:57 2007 Sep 17 03:08:10 Hi, is slug can be install on a standard x86 pc ? like openwrt and dd-wrt ? Sep 17 03:10:20 Dsbeerf: do not understand your question Sep 17 03:10:31 slug is hardware Sep 17 03:10:48 there're a couple of different firmware running on it Sep 17 03:11:19 like slugosbe, unslung, debian or openwrt Sep 17 15:07:48 anyone got a synology cs 407 here? Sep 17 15:47:01 hello Sep 17 15:59:18 hi Sep 17 16:01:53 i want to use a raid1 setup on a nslu2 (unslung'ed) Sep 17 16:02:12 the two usb-drives are locatet on a usb-hub Sep 17 16:02:30 whats the best firmware for this setup for me? Sep 17 16:08:10 is the installer for debian still broken? Sep 17 16:51:40 i realized today i need some sort of centralized media storage and found the nslu2, looks pretty cool. anyone here using it for streaming music and hd videos (720p+) and does it work well with that? Sep 17 16:52:37 oh, this channel is only firmware talk? if so, sorry. Sep 17 17:00:16 anyone got a synology cs 407 here? Sep 17 17:26:27 ccc, it'd probably be alright as long as you don't expect it to do any transcoding Sep 17 17:26:34 It has a pretty wimpy CPU Sep 17 17:26:55 but I've not tried it, anyway :) Sep 17 17:57:01 ccc: what do you use for playing 720p+? Sep 17 17:58:07 Frijj: hm, yeah, i won't transcode. :) Sep 17 17:58:11 osas: a c2d macbook Sep 17 17:58:16 mostly Sep 17 17:58:29 I see ... Sep 17 17:59:59 why? Sep 17 18:00:34 I was looking for some dedicated hw to use it as a network player Sep 17 18:02:39 and 720p w/ x264 is pretty heavy Sep 17 18:02:41 ah, ok. yeah i switched my mac mini for a macbook recently and i'm happy with it so far. basically the same hardware but with added portability. :) no linux on it yet, but that will be done eventually. Sep 17 18:03:17 and apple tv is not able to deal with it ... Sep 17 18:03:42 yeah, no problem running 1080p on it either. but i have no need for it since my tv is 720p. Sep 17 18:03:51 really? i didn't know. that sucks. Sep 17 18:03:59 why do you need to stream to your macbook? Sep 17 18:04:09 why don't you setup everything on your mac? Sep 17 18:04:31 it should be able to deal with the load Sep 17 18:04:31 because i have several computers and want a central storage Sep 17 18:04:50 cool Sep 17 18:04:50 use your mac as a central storage :) Sep 17 18:05:15 if it is on all the time Sep 17 18:05:36 otherwise, the slug is a pretty cool alternative Sep 17 18:05:42 it is, but i move it around the house a lot Sep 17 18:05:50 heh Sep 17 18:05:52 I see Sep 17 18:06:59 i *could* get a backpack for the external hds and put a car battery in it for power :) Sep 17 18:08:59 sounds heavy Sep 17 18:09:01 :) Sep 17 18:40:51 Evening Sep 17 20:30:23 . Sep 17 20:30:31 . Sep 17 20:31:51 . Sep 17 20:39:05 . Sep 17 20:43:43 . Sep 17 20:44:19 . Sep 17 20:45:52 what a lot of fun :) Sep 17 20:46:51 hehe Sep 17 20:47:06 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_stop Sep 17 21:01:06 something to break the silence.... Sep 17 21:02:28 what irc clients do you guys use? I'm trying to find a good one, but so far not much luck. Maybe Pidgin IM or Miranda IM.... Sep 17 21:04:06 Im on a free build of XChat atm Sep 17 21:04:55 I tried xchat. Too many options for me. Are you on Linux Sep 17 21:05:19 Nope Sep 17 21:06:03 I find, once you've channel configured it Sep 17 21:06:10 I didnt need to visit any other options Sep 17 21:10:57 I use Pidgin on both Win32 & Linux; it works ok Sep 17 21:11:57 I find that xchat, pidgin and miranda all have pretty bad userinterfaces Sep 17 21:12:22 now it the price is right thought and I really have no place to complain, but just wishing.... Sep 17 21:12:25 irssi Sep 17 21:13:19 irssi, looks like some kind of command line stuff.... Sep 17 21:13:29 console Sep 17 21:14:14 irssi can run comfortably on slug Sep 17 21:21:07 konversation Sep 17 21:25:54 it sounds to me like console based irc client could be a pain to use... switching between channels? Sep 17 21:29:41 leesiulung: the advantage of console clients are: long running session; no mousing Sep 17 21:30:19 in irssi, you can just ctrl-p, ctrl-n to move from channel to channel Sep 17 21:30:38 or M-number go directly to a channel Sep 17 21:31:21 if you prefer, you can also setup irssi to be irc proxy (bouncer) Sep 17 21:31:39 that way, you use a GUI client, but keep the long running session **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Sep 18 02:59:59 2007
