**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Mar 25 02:59:56 2008 Mar 25 09:25:23 hi Mar 25 09:25:32 im trying to compile SlugOS-4.8-beta-source.tar.gz Mar 25 09:25:49 since I need cross-compiler environment.. Mar 25 09:26:01 where is a good HOWTO for that particular version? Mar 25 09:27:27 TIME Mar 25 17:27:01 What does it mean when you do the unslung, and load a bunch of packages, and then reboot and it says it is running from flash? Mar 25 18:16:33 Smurf-Slayer: you probably should do the unsling, reboot, *then* load packages Mar 25 19:28:46 I have rebooted several times... Mar 25 19:28:53 Now it's back to NOT being slung/ Mar 25 19:28:54 ? Mar 25 19:31:21 I rebooted again, and now it says it is UNSLUNG? Any ideas? Mar 25 19:44:08 reboot your pc first :) Mar 25 19:45:17 mmm.. Mar 25 19:45:32 maybe is the external driver that need to be formatted Mar 25 19:45:53 cause it contains the old slugga installation.. Mar 25 21:37:33 hey guys Mar 25 21:37:50 anyone using network printing with slug? Mar 25 21:39:02 I expect there are -- is that your question, then? Mar 25 21:39:17 * mwester decrees the answer to be: YES! Mar 25 21:39:55 lol nope. just looking at setting up, thought migth be worth finding someone who uses it to ask specifc questions :P Mar 25 21:42:08 Ah, well in that case, I suspect that suddenly there is no longer anyone who will be willing to 'fess up to printing on a slug. :D Mar 25 21:42:34 ha that bad? these are the questions i want answering... how good/bad is it? Mar 25 21:42:53 It's like an S.U.V. Mar 25 21:43:42 If you need one, they're indespensible and perfect for the job, if you don't need one, it's difficult, expensive, and hard to park. (My analogy kinda breaks down with that last point there, I'm afraid) Mar 25 21:44:51 lol well yea i do need 1 so thats good :) Mar 25 21:45:47 Don't do it with unslung, and don't run the filters on the NSLU2 (do the transformation on the other boxen in the network). Mar 25 21:46:12 na im debian Mar 25 21:46:27 unslung is to basic for most things lets be honest Mar 25 21:47:20 do i need cups? it dont seem to be builgt correctly for debian Mar 25 21:47:58 Yep, cups is what does the work. Mar 25 21:48:35 I would imagine that since its a very large set of software, that the debian packages are also very large. Mar 25 21:49:25 yup.... reason i asked about cups, is i seen reference to hpijs on other sites, wondering if this alternative to cups Mar 25 21:50:37 No, not as far as I know. I think it's a driver for a printer. Mar 25 21:52:44 right. odd guide then. nevermind. got linux drivers, just need cups for debian. somet to look at now Mar 25 21:54:52 cupsys :D just named bad Mar 26 01:39:10 oh **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Mar 26 02:59:56 2008
