**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Mar 15 23:59:56 2005 Mar 16 01:40:49 Wow - that's unusual. A whole day, and nothing to pull from oe-devel.bkbits.net .... Mar 16 01:58:05 rwhitby: I was just going trough the irc logs. What kind of a problem did you have with the usb serial device? Mar 16 01:59:44 when I have two pl2303 usb->serial cables, and a Linksys usbbt100 bluetooth dongle, all attached to a usb 2.0 hub, which is attached to the slug running openslug, with ehci loaded as a module (or compiled into the kernel), and if the bluetooth dongle is attached at boot, then I get an error when I open the second ttyUSB port with microcom Mar 16 02:00:02 remove the bluetooth dongle, and the problem goes away. Mar 16 02:00:15 put them all on a usb 1.1 hub, and the problem goes away Mar 16 02:00:27 :) Mar 16 02:00:28 disable the ehci module (using ohci instead) and the problem goes away Mar 16 02:01:00 have the bluetooth dongle unplugged at boot, and plug it in after the serial cables have been registered, and the problem goes away Mar 16 02:01:42 I have two serials attached now, but I am missing your third ingredient Mar 16 02:02:23 so I have moved two of my usb->serial cables to a 1.1 hub on the wl500g, and have the other one (with goes to the dial-in modem) attached to port 2 on the openslug ehci slug (the usb 2.0 hub is on port 1) Mar 16 02:04:07 well, as long as it works, and you don't need the 2.0 speed/features why not Mar 16 02:04:09 problem solved :-) Then I removed kallsyms from the kernel so we can compile ehci back into it, and released that as openslug 1.7 Mar 16 02:04:49 so now I have the bluetooth dongle, and a usb 2.0 enclosure and laptop hard disk on the usb 2.0 hub. Mar 16 02:05:21 tonight i will flash that slug with openslug 1.7, and see if the other ehci problem reappears while I make it use rootfs from the external hard disk Mar 16 02:06:58 I've lost you there. Do you or do you not have something attached to the 2.0 hub Mar 16 02:07:34 I now have the usb 1.1 bluetooth dongle, and a usb 2.0 hard disk enclosure attached to the usb 2.0 hub Mar 16 02:08:30 I see, but the old EHCI problem is stil here, you were talking about the "open serial device" one. OK. I got it now Mar 16 02:09:43 I have two ftdi_sio devices on the 2.0 hub and they look to be working ok. Mar 16 02:10:14 yeah, the open serial device problem was stopping me from using ehci at all on a usb 2.0 hub. the irq26 problem (whilst an annoyance) doesn't actually have an bad side effects, does it ? (I don't know, the other problem stopped me from experiencing much of the irq26 nobody cares problem). Mar 16 02:10:59 two pl2303's by themselves are fine. it only goes wrong if you add a bluetooth dongle into the mix, and have it plugged in at boot. Mar 16 02:11:11 BTW, do you know if microcom can be set to 57600. My devices are sending at 57600 and I have a hard time playing with the stty options Mar 16 02:11:41 is the dongle 2.0 ? Mar 16 02:11:52 no, the dongle is 1.1 Mar 16 02:12:06 then I can not see why it should make a problem Mar 16 02:12:14 same here, but it does. Mar 16 02:12:36 you can use ~tp to set the port speed inside microcom Mar 16 02:13:11 dunno about command line, and I've never played with stty on a slug Mar 16 02:13:37 :) Mar 16 02:13:38 tnx Mar 16 02:14:21 np - have you been able to replicate the real ehci problem on your openslug? Mar 16 02:14:38 yes Mar 16 02:15:02 any idea why it happens? Mar 16 02:15:26 I did a large /dd read from a usb storage exported sd card Mar 16 02:16:07 I don't know. Mar 16 02:16:24 Maybe it has something to do with buffering etc. Mar 16 02:16:54 otherwise I can not see why one needs a large/long transfer to trigger the watchdog Mar 16 02:17:44 why are we missing that interrupt only after a large transfer **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Mar 16 03:21:06 2005 Mar 16 03:37:02 So did the pull of the latest rwhitby defconfig change and am able to boot a extdisk rootfs now. Mar 16 03:37:38 cool Mar 16 03:37:52 glad to hear it :-) Mar 16 03:38:02 so now I gotta figure out how to make crlproxy work. ;-) Mar 16 03:38:30 I saw all the chatter about the netgear soemthing624 router. Mar 16 03:38:34 peteru around? Mar 16 03:39:11 I wanted to ask him if he experiences the same irq26 nobody cared type problem. it has the same NEC 72010 chip in it. Mar 16 03:39:17 720101 Mar 16 03:59:06 morning [g2] Mar 16 04:00:03 <[g2]> hey sunshine, heading off to zzz land ? Mar 16 04:00:12 pretty soon. Mar 16 04:00:32 <[g2]> cool, I didn't check the logs yet but are you all cool with flashstick boot ? Mar 16 04:00:37 Yes Mar 16 04:00:45 I sent you mail about that too Mar 16 04:00:55 with a slightly differnt message Mar 16 04:02:24 <[g2]> nod. got that yesterday Mar 16 04:02:25 <[g2]> thx Mar 16 04:02:41 <[g2]> I've seen some scsi errors on a hub Mar 16 04:02:55 <[g2]> I think it's a different failure case Mar 16 04:03:22 someone that sounds like they know what theyre doing should say something about that re-introduced error in the include file. Mar 16 04:03:38 (ie: not me since I obviously dont know what the hell i'm doing) Mar 16 04:05:43 rwhitby, I know youre busy with mipsel stuff, but have you had a chacne to get ctrlproxy working wit that bb i sent the other day? Mar 16 04:06:17 I'm not sure if I'm having user error, or if theres another issue. Mar 16 04:06:26 <[g2]> dyoung-zzzz, you are right about mentioning that Mar 16 04:06:39 <[g2]> I'll try to do that later today Mar 16 04:07:31 [g2] I dont mind sending something out, but I'm really not known well known... Mar 16 04:07:58 and things like that seem to have a better recpetion from someone active. Mar 16 04:08:52 Can someone send me the patch for ixp425-eth to enable netconsole Mar 16 04:09:19 the one on the wiki is not working for me Mar 16 04:09:52 * siddy was waiting for the first one to complain about that for weeks now... ;) Mar 16 04:10:12 hi siddy Mar 16 04:10:14 I'll check if I can find the original patch, gimme a sec... Mar 16 04:12:08 <[g2]> hanjo, it's in the wiki iirc Mar 16 04:12:37 the wiki totally broke my sweet patch, it's as good as unusable in there. Mar 16 04:13:29 <[g2]> yes we need to work that out Mar 16 04:15:16 brr. Mar 16 04:15:32 ~weather phnl Mar 16 04:15:37 Honolulu, Honolulu International Airport, HI, United States; (PHNL) 21-19-39N 157-56-35W 4M; last updated: 2005.03.16 1153 UTC; Dew Point: 52.0 F (11.1 C); Pressure (altimeter): 29.87 in.

Mar 16 04:16:47 <[g2]> beewoolie mentioned that a couple weeks ago Mar 16 04:17:33 how about attaching the patches instead of inlining Mar 16 04:17:37 hanjo: can you try that one and tell me if it applies cleanly? http://www.siddy.org/openslug/ixp425_eth.c.netconsole.patch Mar 16 04:18:29 oh no, broken, sorry... another sec Mar 16 04:18:44 <[g2]> doh! Mar 16 04:19:02 now! Mar 16 04:19:18 * [g2] refreshes Mar 16 04:19:33 * dyoung-zzzz too Mar 16 04:20:11 <[g2]> siddy do you know how big net console is Mar 16 04:21:09 the module is 95398, but that's with debug-information... :\ Mar 16 04:21:41 1956 without Mar 16 04:22:01 <[g2]> without looks better :) Mar 16 04:22:01 compile it in Mar 16 04:22:13 <[g2]> and we'll apply the patch Mar 16 04:22:19 then you see more Mar 16 04:22:42 <[g2]> well the *only* question how does one turn it off ? Mar 16 04:23:00 rwhitby-away: I'd have to set the parameters for netconsole at boot-time and I couldn't disable it. So, I'll keep it as a module. Mar 16 04:23:51 does the patch work? I couldn't really test it, my build-system is once again broken. Mar 16 04:24:06 <[g2]> siddy, what's borked ? Mar 16 04:24:28 I can't rebuild just now, but it applied fine Mar 16 04:24:38 hanjo, cool thx. Mar 16 04:24:52 [g2], missing automake, updating my repos just now. Mar 16 04:25:13 <[g2]> ah.. Mar 16 04:25:38 <[g2]> I'll pull and rebuild my openslug tree Mar 16 04:25:58 <[g2]> Hmmmm.... maby not Mar 16 04:34:50 woot? a new gcc in oe? *sigh* Mar 16 04:35:11 <[g2]> 4.0 ? Mar 16 04:35:24 no, 3.4.3-r10 Mar 16 04:35:34 Buncha patches applied a few days ago Mar 16 04:35:39 I guess I didn't update my repository for a long time... ;) Mar 16 04:36:09 big mistake :-) you either need to freeze everything, or stay up to date, or be prepared to wait :-) Mar 16 04:36:10 <[g2]> yeah... r10 works fine Mar 16 04:36:35 <[g2]> I've been using that for testin the last week + ish Mar 16 04:37:01 yep, I fear I'll have to spend some hours of CPU-time on that thing... great. :-\ Mar 16 04:37:37 so, time for a break, I'm off! Mar 16 04:37:50 * dyoung-zzzz too Mar 16 04:37:58 <[g2]> sweet dreams Mar 16 04:38:26 rwhitby-wl500g, does that mean youre running miau on a wl500g ? Mar 16 04:39:50 i'll find out in the logs. Mar 16 04:39:51 night all Mar 16 04:59:01 flashing OpenSlug 1.7 now ... Mar 16 04:59:15 (had to move miau to the wl500g first) Mar 16 05:08:28 Oops. Forgot to take the ehci module out of openslug-image ... Mar 16 05:09:42 03rwhitby 07 * r1.3079 10openembedded/packages/meta/openslug-image.bb: Removed the ehci module from openslug-image. Mar 16 05:11:46 03rwhitby 07 * r1.3080 10openembedded/packages/openslug-init/openslug-init-0.10/modutils.txt: Removed the ehci module from openslug-init. Mar 16 05:27:31 <[g2]> rwhitby, I guess now would be a good time to pull :0 Mar 16 05:27:33 <[g2]> rwhitby, I guess now would be a good time to pull :) Mar 16 05:28:07 yep Mar 16 05:28:39 <[g2]> btw I've got a linksys-less openslug Mar 16 05:30:55 <[g2]> well actually I need minipci for disk access, but short of that Mar 16 05:35:05 don't forget to clean base-files to get the new version numbe Mar 16 05:35:08 number Mar 16 05:35:28 <[g2]> nod Mar 16 05:35:50 <[g2]> actually which file is that written to ? Mar 16 05:38:40 <[g2]> issue Mar 16 05:39:30 <[g2]> rwhitby, we should just update issue directly from openslug-init Mar 16 05:40:06 <[g2]> The DISTRO_NAME and DISTRO_VERSION are probably available Mar 16 05:40:13 yeah, good idea Mar 16 05:40:44 <[g2]> so when sysconfsetup runs the 1st time it should just echo those values to > /etc/issue Mar 16 05:42:56 yeah Mar 16 05:43:43 <[g2]> I'll push that later Mar 16 05:43:45 and /etc/issue.net too Mar 16 05:44:16 <[g2]> ok Mar 16 05:44:31 <[g2]> the %h does host ? Mar 16 05:44:34 so kergoth said that directories under /mnt were deprecated, so I removed them from our image. Mar 16 05:44:44 yeah, I think so Mar 16 05:45:21 <[g2]> Ok. I don't think I used those for anything Mar 16 05:45:26 however, /mnt/ram is referenced in /etc/fstab. I think we need to either remove it, or change it to /media/ram Mar 16 05:45:27 <[g2]> thx for the heads up Mar 16 05:45:43 <[g2]> that would be important Mar 16 05:45:59 and I still don't understand why I can't mount /proc/bus/usb ... Mar 16 05:46:11 (I've changed noauto to defaults in /etc/fstab for that line) Mar 16 05:47:41 I think base-files/nslu2 should actually be called base-files/openslug, cause it is all distro dependent, not machine dependent .... Mar 16 05:48:13 so do we really want a ramfs area created by default on /media/ram, or not? Mar 16 05:48:41 <[g2]> good question Mar 16 05:48:51 <[g2]> I think some of the mounts are to tmpfs Mar 16 05:49:16 which mounts? Mar 16 05:49:59 <[g2]> I think domounts mount the stuff in /tmp and other to the tmpfs so we wouldn't burn out flash etc.... Mar 16 05:50:47 right, but that's not /media/ram ... Mar 16 05:50:49 <[g2]> "/var is mounted on tmpfs Mar 16 05:51:12 <[g2]> and /tmp is a link to /var/tmp Mar 16 05:51:23 oh, are you questioning tmpfs vs ramfs ? Mar 16 05:51:32 why did you mention tmpfs? Mar 16 05:52:07 <[g2]> tmpfs is kinda the new ramfs right ? Mar 16 05:52:23 dunno Mar 16 05:52:26 <[g2]> and without a disk attached it works pretty much the same Mar 16 05:53:05 <[g2]> that's my understand it's kinda a new improved flexible ramfs Mar 16 05:53:23 ok, so do we really want a ramfs/tmpfs area created by default on /media/ram, or not? (ramfs or tmpfs is not relevant to the question I think) Mar 16 05:54:06 I say not. If we're not using it (and we're obviously not, cause it has the wrong path), then why create it? Mar 16 05:54:12 <[g2]> I say not too Mar 16 05:54:30 <[g2]> We do want the /var link that's already created Mar 16 05:54:49 yes Mar 16 05:55:41 <[g2]> rwhitby, are you familiar at all with nslu2-part.c ? Mar 16 05:55:54 <[g2]> creates some partition information Mar 16 05:56:50 yes Mar 16 05:56:57 it's not used, cause we use redboot.c Mar 16 05:57:20 <[g2]> redboot.c ? Mar 16 05:57:24 that's the default partitioning if you don't have a redboot FIS directory Mar 16 05:57:40 standard redboot partition parser Mar 16 05:57:54 <[g2]> that's the "Redboot" in the ordering of the cmdline, etc.... Mar 16 05:58:09 for mtd partitions, yes Mar 16 05:58:20 <[g2]> yeah that's what I meant Mar 16 05:58:48 <[g2]> so it looks for FIS first than uses that ? Mar 16 05:59:07 should be cmdline, then FIS, then what's in nslu2-part.c Mar 16 05:59:34 <[g2]> is FIS and option too Mar 16 05:59:39 <[g2]> an option Mar 16 06:00:17 what do you mean? Mar 16 06:00:33 <[g2]> I'm checking the patch Mar 16 06:01:24 <[g2]> tic const char *probes[] = { "cmdlinepart", "RedBoot", "NSLU2", NULL }; Mar 16 06:01:44 yep, that's cmdline, then FIS, then nslu2-part.c Mar 16 06:01:47 <[g2]> Ok cmdlinepart and RedBoot are clear Mar 16 06:02:12 <[g2]> ok lets try again :) Mar 16 06:02:24 * hanjo_ is happy being able to flash his TI MSP430-based sensor nodes using python on the slug (over 2.0 hub BTW). Makes an order for 50 slugs Mar 16 06:02:25 <[g2]> cmdlinepart is clear that the kernel cmdline Mar 16 06:02:34 <[g2]> Redboot is the Redboot FIS then Mar 16 06:02:41 hanjo_: congrats! Mar 16 06:02:48 <[g2]> and the NSLU2 is the nslu2-part.c info Mar 16 06:02:51 [g2]: yes, yes, yes Mar 16 06:02:57 thank you all for the help Mar 16 06:03:00 <[g2]> and NULL is too bad the end Mar 16 06:03:06 yep Mar 16 06:03:20 hanjo_: you can thank us by solving the EHCI problem :-) Mar 16 06:03:40 <[g2]> hanjo_, congrats Mar 16 06:03:53 <[g2]> rwhitby, THX Mar 16 06:04:00 I think its out of my capabilities, but I am trying to poke around as much as I can Mar 16 06:04:19 [g2]: so what do we want in fstab? Mar 16 06:04:52 <[g2]> well I don't think we need/want a ramfs Mar 16 06:05:03 <[g2]> tmpfs for var is good Mar 16 06:05:10 what about usbdevfs ? Mar 16 06:05:16 does it work for you? Mar 16 06:05:47 <[g2]> I think you removed the kernel option for that no ? Mar 16 06:06:01 <[g2]> or was that pci Mar 16 06:06:02 didn't intend to ... Mar 16 06:06:18 didn't do that either, since kallsyms freed up so much space. Mar 16 06:06:27 <[g2]> ok Mar 16 06:06:35 <[g2]> how do I check Mar 16 06:07:09 CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS=y Mar 16 06:07:15 mount -a ? Mar 16 06:07:30 <[g2]> is that set by default ? Mar 16 06:07:46 yes, that's what's in our defconfig for 2.6.11.2 Mar 16 06:08:05 does mount -a mount it for you?

Mar 16 09:48:57 ByronT there is a HowTo on java that I can't see on wiki... Mar 16 09:49:05 seems like it's not promoted... Mar 16 09:49:09 it looks like replacing the firmware on this device gives a lot more possibilities Mar 16 09:51:37 garpinc, what is the url? Mar 16 09:52:30 http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/UseJavaOnTheSlug Mar 16 09:54:34 I'll put it under "Other" on the HowTo page Mar 16 09:54:41 Thanks... Mar 16 09:54:44 Bye... Mar 16 09:57:04 * ByronT is away -( be back later )- at 11:58a -( P:On / L:On )- Mar 16 09:59:11 is it possible to run python on the nslu? Mar 16 09:59:43 yes. Mar 16 10:23:58 hi Mar 16 10:24:56 What do I have to do in order to remove a file from the repo? Is `cvs remove ` enough? Mar 16 10:26:00 I want to remove a control file and let it generate by the make. Mar 16 10:27:27 so running a python based bittorrent client, for instance BTManagerServer, would be possible?

Mar 16 13:47:51 can you send me the md5sum of your ixp425_eth.ko Mar 16 13:48:41 7e6663407b35c253aa76920038ea2ecf, but I doubt you'll have the same... Mar 16 13:48:51 even after updating the eth driver Mar 16 13:48:56 netconsole: eth0 doesn't support polling, aborting. ~ Mar 16 13:49:16 I am doing full rebuild now Mar 16 13:49:26 hm... do you have CONFIG_NETPOLL* enabled in your kernel-config? Mar 16 13:49:46 it is Mar 16 13:52:04 strange. Are you sure you have the netconsole-enabled ixp425-driver installed? Mar 16 13:52:26 you could check by searching for the symbol "ixp425eth_poll_controller" in the .ko Mar 16 13:53:08 hmm Mar 16 13:53:19 the time stamp is fine, but no poll Mar 16 13:54:24 how is the ixp425 picking up the kernel-config to set the defines properly? Maybe I've messed something up with the order of the changes Mar 16 13:55:46 it gets the config directly out of the linux-2.6.11.2 tree. It's even built by the kernel's Makefile, to be precise... ;) Mar 16 13:58:08 this is the story: I've applied the patch in eth, then went to the kernel dir only to find that the CONFIG_ stuff is already properly set.. So I just invalidated the stamps on ixp435-eth-compile ... and then reaplied the .ipk Mar 16 13:58:44 Anyhow, let's see if the rebuild works. Sorry for the trouble Mar 16 13:59:48 hm, it should have worked the way you did it, at least that's the way it works for me every time. Mar 16 14:02:57 * hanjo just realizes that he had rwhitby's image on the slug, which may/may not have had the CONFIG_NETPOLL stuff enabled. Arrrgh... Mar 16 14:18:48 <[g2]> hanjo, are you trying to run the ipx in a polled mode ? Mar 16 14:19:10 I am trying to get netconsole to run Mar 16 14:19:36 <[g2]> nod. currently the ixp is setup to run in interrupt mode Mar 16 14:19:53 I applied the patch from siddy Mar 16 14:19:59 [g2], it's another "poll" than the 5000 irq/s polling. It's some kernel-feature called netpoll needed for netconsole. Mar 16 14:20:02 or are you reffering to something else Mar 16 14:20:34 <[g2]> siddy, nod it's poll for the netconle Mar 16 14:20:40 <[g2]> console Mar 16 14:21:18 <[g2]> however, if this is early before interrupts are setup then the driver probably won't run either Mar 16 14:21:46 <[g2]> I dunno for sure Mar 16 14:21:57 works fine for me. Mar 16 14:22:02 <[g2]> Ok Mar 16 14:22:15 <[g2]> with both interrupt driven and Net console Mar 16 14:22:23 yep Mar 16 14:22:25 <[g2]> cool Mar 16 14:22:47 <[g2]> I've been wanting to try that I'm slowly getting closer Mar 16 14:22:56 I nuked tmp so if it works with the latest pull, shoud work here also Mar 16 14:23:41 two more questions Mar 16 14:24:11 i am now running / over nfs, based on the guidelines on the wiki Mar 16 14:24:13 hanjo, I don't know about the latest pull, I'm currently running a heavily personalized 10-days old openslug... ;) Mar 16 14:24:56 siddy: I had to give my box something to work on during the night :) Mar 16 14:25:28 anyhow, /var is still tmpfs when I would like to be on the nfs also Mar 16 14:25:48 does it suffice to remove the mount and modify /etc/fstab ? Mar 16 14:26:52 i.e. is this /var used in the time before the root is switched to the nfs mounted dir? Mar 16 14:28:12 you mean in switchbox? I don't think so. Mar 16 14:28:36 so I can safely remove it then Mar 16 14:29:15 I'd say yes. Never tried it though. Mar 16 14:30:13 switchbox is smart enough to go back to flash if something fails with the nfs right? I'll just try and see what happens Mar 16 14:31:08 yeah, braking the nfs won't hurt the fallback to jffs2, so no risk. Mar 16 14:31:51 As long as it starts telnet/ssh, its fine :). My second question was about src directory for ipkg, can this be a nfs mounted dir also? Mar 16 14:32:43 should make no difference, so: yes. Mar 16 14:32:45 <[g2]> it's just a directory Mar 16 14:33:00 no, that is not what I ment Mar 16 14:33:01 <[g2]> I load from file:// Mar 16 14:33:05 thx Mar 16 14:33:14 that was the answer :) Mar 16 14:33:48 ok thx all for the help, I'll get back to you in the morning when the build is done Mar 16 14:34:07 <[g2]> hanjo, where are you planning on ordering 50 unit from ? Mar 16 14:34:18 * siddy will also go to sleep now... Mar 16 14:34:23 <[g2]> night siddy Mar 16 14:34:45 (there's no better thing than falling asleep while watching harald schmidt...) Mar 16 14:34:47 <[g2]> if you find a good place for bulk let us know Mar 16 14:34:48 I don't know. We have a purchasing guy so I gave him the specification and he has to go find 3 offers and then he selects the best one Mar 16 14:34:49 night all! Mar 16 14:35:10 It has to be in germany Mar 16 14:35:40 it is too compilcated for us to order from abroad Mar 16 14:36:42 <[g2]> nod.
