**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Jan 16 02:59:58 2006 Jan 16 03:18:39 03jbowler * 10kernel/2.6.15/ (4 files): Jan 16 03:18:39 allow board level setting of boot parameters, in particular memory and Jan 16 03:18:39 the command line, to handle board level features. Jan 16 03:19:51 jbowler-zzz: So it'll be "easy" to add support for the ds101? Jan 16 03:20:47 Today is probably a good day to test new kernels on the ds101 Jan 16 03:32:14 03rwhitby * 10kernel/2.6.15/ (4 files): Added conditionals to stop nslu2 routines running on other ixp4xx devices. Jan 16 03:46:48 03rwhitby * 10kernel/STATUS: Updated the status of various patches. Jan 16 04:24:03 Hi people, a question - I'm running debian slug, how do I get control of the leds and speaker (so it can beep) Jan 16 04:26:05 or, a different question : where is the source to zleds ? Jan 16 04:30:04 "The status led will continue to flash amber. There is a nslu2-tools debian package under development that will contain a leds binary that will switch it back to green." Jan 16 04:30:19 http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/DebianSlug/Bootstrap#notes Jan 16 04:32:44 EvilDevil : any idea on the progress of that package ? Is the current source / plans available anywhere ? Jan 16 04:33:51 GalB: sorry, just read it on that page... google doesn't know about it either Jan 16 04:35:48 OK, fair enough. I'd like to get the display to give a number from 0-15 and have the speaker beep morse. I've managed to half connect a usb keyboard. Jan 16 04:36:44 interesting.. what do you want to use this for? Jan 16 04:36:45 I think a Debian dev is working on the "nslu2-tools" package. IIRC, the leds already work Jan 16 04:39:35 ED: eventually, running a rocket. See www.asri.org.au - but I want to have the slug turn valves via usb on and off, and its nicer to do that independently without a laptop - just a keyboard - this key closes the valve, that opens. Jan 16 04:39:49 NAiL: do you have a link? Jan 16 04:40:14 no, someone talked about it earlier Jan 16 04:40:45 GalB cool.. "slug in space" ;-) Jan 16 04:41:21 zleds gives you some limited control of the leds, IIUC - but just flashing them, not independently. Jan 16 04:42:49 ED: Thanks - would be cool. My full name is John August, it is Ausroc 2.5 :) Jan 16 04:44:22 400 kg rocket controlled by 250 gr nslu2 :-) Jan 16 04:47:46 Well, fin guided - the nslu2 turns on the valves and monitors the system - little "control" on the first flight - but we'd try to throttle the motor on later flights .. Jan 16 04:49:46 but the nslu2 is embedded in the rocket, or is it monitoring it remotely? Jan 16 04:50:20 another question - how do you compile arm executables on your i386 linux box ? I've tried doing some folding of the debianslug gcc, but it complains about kernel stuff in user code ... Jan 16 04:51:16 setting up a crosscompile environment? Jan 16 04:52:19 http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Development/MasterMakefile Jan 16 04:52:23 The nslu2 is on the rocket, it monitors the sensors which connect to ADC USB chips, and onto the slug via hubs. The data is transmitted and stored on memory sticks at the top & base of the rocket (black boxes). It's only "active" task is to turn on valves at launch. Jan 16 04:54:15 ok. ic :-) Jan 16 04:56:43 The MasterMakefile is mostly about some sort of kernel crosscompile environment, I've had difficulty adapting it to make plain binaries to _run_ on the system. But it does talk about a "OpenSlug native compile environment", which may be inconvenient, but would be a hassle free "grab" Jan 16 05:01:01 GalB the mastermakefile provides also an crosscompile env. for building user-space packages Jan 16 05:01:44 i've had an native compile env. on my openslug 2.7, but this is far too slow... compared to cross-compiling Jan 16 05:04:15 EvilDevil I'll have a look into that ... it does compile packages for the rootdisk, doesn't it ... OK, I'll figure it out. Thanks, I gotta get some sleep :) Jan 16 05:04:37 GalB it also compiles user packages Jan 16 05:05:04 How ? Where's the documentation on that ? Jan 16 05:07:39 http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/OpenSlug/CustomisingTheBuild <- this is for openslug, but it should apply to debianslug too (with some changes) Jan 16 05:08:27 OK, thanks ... I'll be outa here now ... Jan 16 05:09:07 eno-away: git-core fails to create ipk due to templates Jan 16 05:11:20 ~seen GalB Jan 16 05:11:38 jbot, seen GalB?

Jan 16 09:38:49 oleo, is this the error message you see?

Jan 16 13:41:42 or help file Jan 16 13:42:05 the thttpd docu is at http://www.acme.com/software/thttpd/ Jan 16 13:43:28 thank you very mutch :) Jan 16 13:43:39 no problem Jan 16 13:44:02 /leave Jan 16 13:47:02 native optware/nslu2 feed failure is due to ipkg-make-index requiring python, and python not yet installed on native build machine. Jan 16 14:04:25 I have installed DebianSlug and find that while I can access the subnet (192.168.1.*) and ssh in, I can not access outside this using IP addresses (and, of course then, DNS does not work). Any thoughts? Jan 16 14:05:40 Also connecting via ssh involves about a 30s wait for the login prompt to appear followed by about a 15s wait for the password prompt which after entry the shell appears almost instantly. hmm Jan 16 14:06:08 have you set up /etc/network/interfaces correctly? Jan 16 14:06:44 I think so, ... will attempt to append Jan 16 14:06:49 # The loopback interface Jan 16 14:06:55 auto lo Jan 16 14:07:01 iface lo inet loopback Jan 16 14:07:06 auto eth0 Jan 16 14:07:13 iface eth0 inet static Jan 16 14:07:20 pre-up modprobe -f ixp400 Jan 16 14:07:25 pre-up modprobe -f ixp400_eth Jan 16 14:07:33 address 192.168.1.99 Jan 16 14:07:39 netmask 255.255.255.0 Jan 16 14:07:45 gateway 192.168.1.1 Jan 16 14:07:56 which is copy - pasted from the howto Jan 16 14:33:55 dunno Jan 16 14:34:40 is it possible to read the chatlog somewhere on the net ?

Jan 16 14:46:29 during ./configure it recognizes an i386 architecture instead the mipsel Jan 16 16:41:29 I have solved my networking issue with DebianSlug -- the gateway was wrong 192.168.1.1 (as listed) rather than 192.168.1.254, I have changed the wiki since .254 is typical (so typical I didn't think to check the value) Jan 16 18:34:38 jbowler-away: and how do I swap the command line?

Jan 16 18:48:22 <[g2]> jbowler echo "the command line" >file; devio '< tbm I haven't tested initramfs, but with the latest changes from jbowler I think I'm about 3 instructions from running the kernel and roofs LE Jan 16 18:50:04 <[g2]> right now it's all BE Jan 16 20:42:06 tbm: are you running on NSLU2?
