**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Jan 07 02:59:57 2009 Jan 07 03:01:06 i dunno, but like "ipkg list 'string*'" can display packages that that with string, so probably "ipkg install" works the same way Jan 07 03:07:12 it doesn't Jan 07 04:55:56 I got it Jan 07 04:56:01 wrote a php script to do it Jan 07 04:56:21 wanted to install every perl module Jan 07 04:58:24 cool Jan 07 04:59:46 going to take forever though Jan 07 04:59:51 been running already for like 30 minutes Jan 07 04:59:56 only on the F's Jan 07 04:59:58 in the list Jan 07 05:00:30 otherwise though Jan 07 05:00:34 everytime you download some perl app Jan 07 05:00:36 you have to run it Jan 07 05:00:43 get informed of a missing module Jan 07 05:00:45 install it Jan 07 05:00:51 and repeat like 20 times to get them all Jan 07 05:53:32 does anyone know the difference between openembedded native and non-native packages and/or native and non-native .bb files? Jan 07 06:31:00 hi all Jan 07 06:32:08 i am trying to rebuild the kernel for my mssii since the original kernel doesn't have support for bridging, Jan 07 06:32:53 is there a way i can get make menuconfig before building the kernel & modules (cross compiling) Jan 07 11:00:42 Hi Jan 07 11:01:01 Where can i find the password for editing some tutorials? Jan 07 11:01:54 There is an error i would fix here -> http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/SingleInterfaceFirewall Jan 07 11:34:20 PPmarcel: on the home page of the wiki Jan 07 11:37:21 Oh, ok, thank you. Jan 07 13:42:19 Tar ball contains Debian lenny (the upcoming 5.0) available now at http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/unpack.html Jan 07 16:20:34 bizkut, did you make the howto/debian/slug ? Jan 07 16:20:58 BusError, no, why? Jan 07 16:21:25 well otherwise you'd have had my personal thanks, it's a nice doc :D Jan 07 16:22:01 oh nice Jan 07 16:23:18 the debian/slug works pretty well, they integrated the on/off switch, led sequencing for boot diag and such, I was pleasantly surprised Jan 07 16:25:01 Martin Michlmayr did it, you know he was a former Debian project leader Jan 07 16:27:03 ah no, didn't. it's a good job. Jan 07 16:28:16 however 32M is just too small for debian these days ! 'aptitude' uses 20MB swap :/ Jan 07 16:29:04 I managed to get PC133 SDRAM sticks, but so far only managed to get 64MBx8 ICs :/ so no fat slug for me so far Jan 07 16:30:06 debian is too heavy for a slug, but memory can be reduced by turn few services off Jan 07 16:31:53 I had mysql and apache running on a Debian-powered slug. Jan 07 16:32:04 Wasn't fast, but it worked to serve web pages. Jan 07 16:32:33 swapping on flash is dangerous too Jan 07 16:32:40 I use Micro SDs Jan 07 16:33:12 Lunar_Lamp, no slugs at either of the york ones :( Jan 07 16:34:41 lol Jan 07 16:37:12 I think it's a vicious rumour :( Jan 07 16:37:46 I dunno Jan 07 16:37:58 google "tesco nslu2" someone has taken a picture of it Jan 07 16:38:14 Has anyone had success getting beep working with the openwrt firmware? Jan 07 16:38:52 was only mentioned on hotdeals Jan 07 16:41:22 yeah.. but multiple people said they found them at different stores Jan 07 16:41:39 meh, case of being in the right place at the right time Jan 07 16:42:51 yeah Jan 07 16:47:40 I bought 34 UK pounds one before the holidays, but they're out of stock now :/ I knew I should have bought one or two more :D Jan 07 17:10:34 hi mwester Jan 07 17:33:49 amazon's prices haven't dropped to those tesco levels Jan 07 17:33:56 newegg doesn't seem to have any Jan 07 17:43:56 chrisb, if only amazons had Jan 07 17:45:37 are you guys still talking about the 'on-sale' NSLU2? Jan 07 17:46:11 ive looked, not found and now given up Jan 07 17:52:11 Reedy: you're in the UK? Jan 07 17:53:32 ye Jan 07 17:55:49 Reedy: good luck on finding some on-sale NSLU2s, hope you find some Jan 07 17:55:59 I've tried 2 big tesco Jan 07 17:56:29 There is one more, but im not doing a 60 mile round trip, if i had to go into Hull for uni, i would go look.. Jan 07 17:57:37 I guess it depends on how much you want a NSLU2 on-sale ;-) Jan 07 17:57:42 lol Jan 07 17:57:56 I could ring, or visit Jan 07 17:58:08 but going on what others have found, the chances of finding any are slim.. Jan 07 17:58:38 you need to get more details on where they are, there's probably a lot of them somewhere Jan 07 17:59:08 yeah, this is the thing Jan 07 17:59:16 they havent been presumably distributed everywhere Jan 07 17:59:49 is th NSLU2 no-longer being manufactured? soon will we not be able to find a NSLU2 anywhere? Jan 07 18:00:17 linksys have put it as discontinued on their website Jan 07 18:00:20 scant: that's my concern since newegg isn't carrying them Jan 07 18:01:07 perhaps someone who represents NSLU2-linux can contact Linksys and find out the details Jan 07 18:01:50 and there is eBay =) Jan 07 18:03:09 scant: yes, they have kept the wrt54GL L for Linux version in production Jan 07 18:05:22 nice Jan 07 18:06:57 hi Jan 07 18:07:09 i got a problem with my slug Jan 07 18:07:43 since i tried to install vsftpd and inetutils it got quite slow Jan 07 18:08:50 top shows me, that some services are doubled, is that normal? Jan 07 18:09:28 im still a newbee, please help me Jan 07 18:13:06 hey, no one here? Jan 07 18:24:15 Help? Jan 07 18:28:12 Caradhras: i don't think inetutils by default launches any service Jan 07 18:28:51 you also need to provide more info for ppl to help you Jan 07 18:29:09 ah yes of course Jan 07 18:29:17 like, which services are doubled, what you mean by "slow" Jan 07 18:29:52 ok, for example the service /USR/BIN/usb_detect is doubled Jan 07 18:30:18 usr/bin/onetouch_detect as well Jan 07 18:30:54 before i did the install, i rebooted the slug through sync/reboot Jan 07 18:31:14 and after a few sec i could reconnect with putty (ssh) Jan 07 18:31:33 but now it says "connection refused) Jan 07 18:31:46 and it need a longer time Jan 07 18:32:21 what do you need to know more? Jan 07 18:33:51 does not sound like a problem caused by vsftpd installation Jan 07 18:34:08 what happens when you uninstall/disable vsftpd ? Jan 07 18:34:19 well i ran "ipkg install inetutils" Jan 07 18:34:32 and the ftp server still does not work :/ Jan 07 18:34:52 i forgot what should be the supported method of shutdown/reboot on unslung Jan 07 18:35:15 i thought its the sync/reboot method, isnt it? Jan 07 18:35:15 it may be different from standard ways Jan 07 18:36:24 btw it is unslung 6.8 Jan 07 18:37:02 there're /usr/sbin/DO_Reboot and /usr/sbin/DO_Shutdown Jan 07 18:37:13 with a flashdrive containing the os and an attached harddrive Jan 07 18:37:59 if it's taking a long time after reboot, i suspect it was fsck'ing Jan 07 18:38:10 hmm perhaps Jan 07 18:38:25 maybe you can help to get vsftp working? Jan 07 18:38:38 i followed a howto Jan 07 18:38:51 to install it, but maybe i made a mistake Jan 07 18:39:13 sorry, cannot help you here, i don't use vsftpd Jan 07 18:39:25 ah, ok Jan 07 18:39:35 well to go back to the other problem Jan 07 18:39:46 is it normal to have some services twice? Jan 07 18:39:59 i would think so Jan 07 18:40:26 read http://logs.nslu2-linux.org/livelogs/nslu2-general/nslu2-general.20070214.txt Jan 07 18:40:27 do you use unslung, too? Jan 07 18:40:39 yes I do Jan 07 18:41:14 i'm still on 5.5 though Jan 07 18:41:14 i read Jan 07 18:41:20 ok Jan 07 18:43:34 hmm Jan 07 18:43:43 does not really help me Jan 07 18:44:10 didn't they talk about how to properly shutdown/reboot? Jan 07 18:44:47 the slowness you perceived may have something to do with how you did the reboot Jan 07 18:45:29 well, i think it doesnt make any difference Jan 07 18:46:05 if im correct, sync makes sure, that any data is written out of the buffer to the disks Jan 07 18:46:29 and reboot does the "brutal reboot" Jan 07 18:46:55 unslung is based on linksys firmware, there're lot of things where source is not available Jan 07 18:47:06 you should not treat it as stand linux Jan 07 18:47:11 standard Jan 07 18:47:24 hmm yes Jan 07 18:47:52 maybe i should switch to a different distribution Jan 07 18:48:05 like slugos or something Jan 07 18:48:41 sure, in any case, read http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/FAQ/FirmwareMatrix Jan 07 18:49:58 thanks for now! Jan 07 18:50:25 no problem, good luck Jan 07 19:18:52 morning, Jan 07 19:19:17 2 usb ports = 2 usb_detect as well as 2 onetouch_detect Jan 07 19:19:38 caplinkg! Jan 07 19:19:47 /s/caplinkg/caplink/ Jan 07 19:20:22 capling sounds chinese , happy new year, btw Jan 07 19:33:55 hi everyone Jan 07 19:33:57 has anyone gotten beep working on openwrt's formware? Jan 07 19:34:02 firmware* Jan 07 19:34:20 Caradhras, if you consider to use xinetd and vsftpd, you could read http://jrbnet.de/joomla/content/view/32/58/ Jan 07 19:35:21 thanks @ caplink! Jan 07 19:37:33 but make sure to add a "listen=no" to the conf file Jan 07 19:43:48 i will Jan 07 19:48:54 hi, can someone here edit this page: http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/FSG3/HomePage ? Jan 07 19:50:13 the maxtor-link should be updated to: http://www.seagate.com/staticfiles/maxtor/en_us/downloads/MSSII_3.1.2.src.tgz Jan 07 20:10:25 zorrolero: see the bottom section "How to add information to this wiki" on http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Main/HomePage Jan 07 20:11:41 eno, hey, do you remember what was that other wireless media player that wasnt the roku soundbridge? Jan 07 20:40:43 anyone around? Jan 07 20:42:18 people usually are Jan 07 20:43:09 I'm just failing miserable at getting beep to work unser openwrt and was hoping someone around might have some insight Jan 07 20:43:51 since the nslu2 is headless being able to make it beep to indicate different things would be most helpful Jan 07 20:45:08 I kinda wish I would of went with one of the other firmware available that has beep built in but now that I have everything built and configured under openwrt it'll be a complete pita to start over with a differtn distro Jan 07 20:51:04 maybe try the mailing lists? Jan 07 20:57:45 devvy: sorry, i'm a slugosbe user Jan 07 20:58:00 * chrisb wants to run openwrt on a wrt54 Jan 07 20:59:40 Reedy: it's squeezebox we were talking about Jan 07 20:59:56 cheers :) Jan 07 21:00:05 chrisb, thats easy enough Jan 07 21:00:24 optware has pretty good squeezebox support Jan 07 21:00:42 but it probably does not run well on nslu2 Jan 07 21:00:48 heh Jan 07 21:00:51 Its not quite that Jan 07 21:01:08 Just with the soundbridge being pants and being on 11mb wireless Jan 07 21:01:28 and/or the wireless encryption, it wont play ball with my new router Jan 07 21:01:48 squeezebox supports wired or wireless b/g Jan 07 21:02:39 yeah Jan 07 21:02:51 my soundbridge wont work unless my router is in b only mode Jan 07 21:03:09 my old one was a Super-G (108), and it worked fine, but this is a Pre/Draft N (DGN2000) and it wont play ball Jan 07 21:03:19 and i dont think its worth having to run a seperate WAP for it Jan 07 21:03:58 but keep in mind that squeezecenter requires beefy hardware Jan 07 21:04:43 hmm Jan 07 21:06:36 at least a linkstation pro/live, which is arm 500MHz Jan 07 21:07:35 worth baring in mind Jan 07 21:08:05 does soundbridge support wired network? Jan 07 21:08:17 some do, mine isnt one of them :( Jan 07 21:09:03 alright, i was thinking to have it connect to the wireless net with some bridging device Jan 07 21:09:11 yeah... Jan 07 21:09:21 its barely 10ft away from my wireless access point Jan 07 21:09:51 i do have a fon router.. which would work fine (as would a WRT54GL), im just a bit stuck for power sockets and such Jan 07 21:18:03 fon? Jan 07 21:40:56 DrJ, www.fon.com Jan 07 21:40:58 wireless sharing Jan 07 21:46:40 some type of thing to make your home wifi available to people around you for a charge or something? Jan 07 21:47:35 yeah Jan 07 21:47:45 but im the middle of nowhere, so the chances of anyone wanting to use it are very slim Jan 07 21:47:52 my router has that built in Jan 07 21:47:55 i'd be suprised if the signal would reach to the main road Jan 07 21:48:15 if I wanted to do it though, I would get 100% Jan 07 21:48:24 heh Jan 07 21:49:15 eno: thx, only checked the wiki-documentation.) page is updated Jan 07 21:51:05 my router is a PC though ... running mikrotik Jan 07 21:51:36 lol Jan 07 21:51:47 its has full hotspot capability ... including charging users and linked to your paypal just like that fon Jan 07 21:52:02 oh yeah Jan 07 21:52:06 chillispot or something? Jan 07 21:52:14 doesnt dd-wrt and such have? Jan 07 21:52:17 I would not do it though Jan 07 21:52:35 just asking for problems letting someone use your IP Jan 07 22:34:04 mwester: I'm having issues with SlugOS 5.2-alpha and opkg, I'm getting an error: file_move: ERROR: failed to rename //usr/lib/opkg/status.tmp to //usr/lib/opkg/status: No such file or directory Jan 07 22:36:20 and opkg returns this with custom ipkgs: Package (null) has no Architecture defined, it's the same error I had when I was out of space on my NSLU2, but this is on my DSM-G600, and I think I have plenty of space **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Jan 08 02:59:57 2009
