**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Apr 30 09:59:57 2006 Apr 30 11:32:37 hi there Apr 30 11:32:51 looking for help with proftpd config Apr 30 11:33:05 i have trouble with port forwading Apr 30 11:33:17 users can loging but not get directory list Apr 30 11:46:01 Jah_: that's because of passive ftp Apr 30 11:46:22 for transfering the directory listing the server opens a connection to the client Apr 30 11:46:26 i know...i forced proftpd to use a specific range Apr 30 11:46:36 and set up a forward rule for that range on my router Apr 30 11:46:47 oh... Apr 30 11:47:38 so i have to properly set up the port range forward rule.... Apr 30 11:50:16 the outgoing traffic should be handled by the masq rule outmagical Apr 30 11:50:32 hmmm Apr 30 11:53:27 you only need a rule for the incoming traffic, I think Apr 30 11:53:38 it is already there Apr 30 11:53:42 but don't work Apr 30 11:53:46 and the ip_conntrack module Apr 30 11:54:00 http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Unslung/Proftpd Apr 30 11:54:09 on Tip #4 Apr 30 11:54:16 they advice to fix passive prots Apr 30 11:54:28 but i dont understand what to do with these ports Apr 30 11:57:05 OK, they forward all the ports to the internal box Apr 30 11:57:20 i did that Apr 30 11:57:28 but did not work..... Apr 30 11:59:48 hi can anyone help me to configure and setup a nfs server on my openslug? i cannot mount Apr 30 17:07:33 mwester? Apr 30 19:51:05 mwester? Apr 30 20:20:38 hi all Apr 30 20:20:51 what's the latest kernel to work on the slug? 2.6.16? Apr 30 20:30:49 Is there a repository with pre-built binaries for openslug? Apr 30 20:33:06 likewise, http://www.slug-firmware.net/ if you meant the firmware itself Apr 30 20:36:57 or http://ipkgfind.nslu2-linux.org/ if you search precompiled packages Apr 30 20:38:45 Yes, I meant the latter. Thanks. I plan to run them on a IXDP425 platform instead. Apr 30 20:39:24 np May 01 00:03:10 Anyone seen this: ixp4xx_eth does not transmit (tx counter stays zero), but does receive May 01 00:03:12 ? May 01 00:19:25 sorry my client dropped out. I have some package updates but have no response to my email to nslu2-developers@yahoogroups.com for write access to cvs. Any ideas? May 01 02:15:51 placid_: I see no new messages in nslu2-developers since April 14: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nslu2-developers/messages May 01 02:16:40 rwhitby: does it accept messages from non group members? May 01 02:16:57 no May 01 02:17:37 If you want write access to CVS, then you're a developer and should be subscribed :-) May 01 02:18:00 ah, I think I missed the bit about joining the group on the wiki May 01 02:19:23 oh, it doesn't actually mention that on the wiki. will add some notes May 01 02:35:46 updated wiki, joined group, sent request May 01 02:36:19 anyone aware that mediawiki package doesn't work with php-thttpd? May 01 03:01:28 placid_: you now have cvs write access May 01 03:01:38 cheers May 01 04:23:37 I'm a bit of a n00b with cvs. how do I actually commit a file? I'm getting an error telling me I need write access so I assume I need to connect to cvs in write mode. May 01 04:24:05 I was able to checkout files using the :pserver: method May 01 04:24:31 wiki says to switch to :ext:... method but I need a little detail May 01 04:28:11 03bzhou * 10unslung/make/py-urwid.mk: upstream upgrade to 0.9.4 May 01 04:29:40 03bzhou * 10unslung/make/py-nose.mk: upstream upgrade to 0.9.0a1 May 01 04:33:06 placid_, http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Unslung/AddAPackageToUnslung search for "export CVS_RSH=ssh" May 01 04:33:38 yep did that May 01 04:34:14 then this: cvs -d placid@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/nslu co unslung May 01 04:34:36 then cvs add myfile.blah May 01 04:35:14 ah. that will require my ssh pub key to be on SF which I've only just done so I assume there is a lag May 01 04:36:14 cvs -d :ext:placid@cvs.sf.net:/cvsroot/nslu May 01 04:36:54 when I try that I just get cvs usage blurb May 01 04:37:55 looks like something missing or broken in my environment May 01 04:37:56 co unslung on the end of course May 01 04:39:26 aha May 01 04:41:46 03placid * 10unslung/make/libxml2.mk: libupnp: upnp library 1.3.1 May 01 04:41:55 ah poop May 01 04:41:59 that's not right May 01 04:43:15 when I try to do 'cvs add make/libupnp.mak sources/libupnp' I get 'cvs [add aborted]: there is a version in sources/libupnp already' May 01 04:45:00 you don't cvs add directories May 01 05:03:07 03placid * 10unslung/make/libupnp.mk: adding upnp library 1.3.1 May 01 05:03:12 whew! May 01 05:04:00 thanks for the help guys. I'm used to wincvs and a have only recently moved to linux May 01 05:07:51 03placid * 10unslung/Makefile: libupnp: adding to ready for testing May 01 05:13:18 03placid * 10unslung/ (6 files in 2 dirs): ushare: adding 0.9.7 May 01 05:14:29 03placid * 10unslung/Makefile: ushare: adding to ready for testing May 01 06:24:55 03bzhou * 10unslung/sources/squeak/configure.ac-nslu2.patch: corrected MMAP and DOUBLE_WORD_ORDER May 01 06:50:03 what's the story with the beta and unstable feeds? when do those packages move into the normal stream? libc-dev in particular which doesn't have any version in the main stream May 01 06:57:17 placid_: there is no such thing as the normal stream, the beta feeds are the latest frozen release, there is no such thing as a real release May 01 06:57:26 hi all May 01 06:57:32 hi hanjo May 01 06:57:46 ok so why don't I see libc-dev in the tree? May 01 06:57:48 is monotone in sych with respect to the upcoming beta. May 01 06:57:58 placid_: in a few weeks there will be new beta's May 01 06:58:12 i.e. can I test the new code from monotone? May 01 06:58:17 hanjo: yes, monotone is the repository where this is build from May 01 06:58:28 eFfeM: thanks May 01 06:58:36 np May 01 06:58:46 eFfeM: Any news on the release date? May 01 06:58:54 so other packages such as libc-dev will be added to the head in cvs? May 01 06:59:02 sorry May 01 06:59:12 I did not see the line to placid_ May 01 06:59:33 hanjo, nope, I understood from rwhitby that the main blocking factor was that syslog and klog were started twice, but I have been unable to reproduce this May 01 06:59:46 expect it this month .... May 01 06:59:56 eFfeM: jacques is seeing this problem too May 01 07:00:05 I'm trying to understand the setup May 01 07:00:16 eFfeM: Yes, I've seen the logs. I will try to do some testing today and see if I get the same issue (double loading) May 01 07:00:54 placid_: there is only one optware/nslu2 feed - unstable and stable both point to the same dir May 01 07:01:14 rwhitby: with a fresh install and turnup? May 01 07:01:19 (unstable is there in cause Linksys ever change the kernel version of C library version) May 01 07:01:26 don't want to nuke my setup so didn't try that May 01 07:01:29 eFfeM: fresh install - before turnup May 01 07:01:38 (no disks involved) May 01 07:01:55 back in about an hour May 01 07:01:57 ah, ok, that is something I can try fairly easily (but not now as I am supposed to work for my boss right now) May 01 07:02:17 rwhitby: so if I see something in unstable that is a dependency for another package then currently there is no way to build that package via cross compile May 01 07:02:44 placid_: if it's in unstable, then it has been built cross-compile on the autobuild May 01 07:04:07 placid_: there is libc6-dev if you need it May 01 07:04:50 sorry I'm being dense. I am trying to compile something which relies on headers in libc-dev. there is no libc-dev package so it can't find the header May 01 07:04:52 * eFfeM has no idea about what is in libc6-dev; what about glib? May 01 07:06:20 actually my curiousity got the worst out of me again :-) May 01 07:06:32 apparentlly libc6-dev comes from glibc May 01 07:07:10 given the date of the package I had expected this to be in the feed: libc6_2.3.5+cvs20050627-r3_armeb.ipk May 01 07:07:24 anyway.... May 01 07:07:26 back later May 01 07:09:08 I found this http://ipkgfind.nslu2-linux.org/details.php?package=libc6-dev&official=&format=, but that package is not in the tree so I can't stage it May 01 07:11:57 I'm sure I'm missing something obvious May 01 07:16:19 Is anyone working on updating the MasterMakefile to handle the renaming of the monotone executable to mtn? May 01 07:33:16 Ughh. Looks like it is going to be a hard job migrating to 0.26. Any news if OE is in the process? May 01 07:33:34 placid_: are you on openslug ? May 01 07:33:41 unslung May 01 07:34:15 couldn't quite work out what the downside of moving to openslug would be May 01 07:34:39 ah ok May 01 07:35:01 downside of moving to openslug is that you loose the linksys web interface May 01 07:35:01 couple of people told me unslung was all I'd ever need May 01 07:35:13 well i don't seem to use that for anything May 01 07:35:33 not after getting ssh going May 01 07:35:57 are packages treated the same regardless of distro? May 01 07:36:26 if you are linux knowledgeable and want to cross-compile yourself you might want to get libc-dev on unslung May 01 07:37:03 you mean add it as a package for cross compiling May 01 07:37:06 more or less, the kernel is the same (or at least will be with the next beta) but there are some paths different in unslung (e.g. /opt) May 01 07:37:40 there is already a package for cross compiling I guess (I have the libc6-dev ipkg on my system and it is also in the openslug feed) May 01 07:38:12 if you want to you can also browse the feeds: http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/ May 01 07:38:46 no idea what installing libc6-dev from openslug/unstable will give you May 01 07:38:48 if I build package for openslug does it also work for unslung? May 01 07:39:02 I'm just looking for a header file ifaddrs.h May 01 07:39:23 google found it in lbc6-dev package for nslu2 May 01 07:39:24 is there someone who uses the nslu2-kernel on the IXDP425? May 01 07:39:31 the binary format is the same, so in principle you should be ok. Issue is often that some libs might not be there or in a different place or so May 01 07:39:45 libc6-dev comes with glib May 01 07:40:58 is the intention to remove those inconsistencies? May 01 07:44:27 I guess that raises the question of which distro is the most active. I notice openslug doesn't seem to have as much activity as unslung May 01 07:45:07 placid_: merging unslung and openslug would mean rewriting the linksys web pages. it has been mentioned by someone as an activity, but I don't think it is actually done May 01 07:45:32 so is there any advantage to moving away from unslung then? May 01 07:45:49 for me openslug is more open and flexible, unslung is if you do not want to move away too far from unslung (but perhaps I am biased) May 01 07:45:55 and of course there is also debianslug May 01 07:46:21 I guess my desire is to have a platform for which I can work on packages that benefit the most people May 01 07:46:38 I don't want to end up forcing people onto a particular distro May 01 07:47:17 so with a package like libc6-dev, why is there only a ipk? where is the source? May 01 07:47:35 libc6-dev seems to come from glibc May 01 07:50:08 if you feel like building it for unslung and testing it, please go ahead May 01 07:50:16 * eFfeM is not an expert on glibc May 01 07:55:40 apparently there is not really a native toolchain under unslung (must say I never tried this myself). May 01 07:55:44 there is a wiki page: http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/FAQ/CompilingOnTheNSLU2 May 01 07:56:11 for larger projects most people use a cross env May 01 07:56:36 especially if your project involves C++, native compilation is sloooooooooooooooooow May 01 07:57:26 gone for now (working on my other system) back later May 01 08:02:32 placid_: openslug is quite active - but a lot of the users are happy to build the images themselves May 01 08:03:10 also, package activity is done by the many OpenEmbedded developers too. Similarly for DebianSlug (and the many Debian developers) May 01 08:03:55 There is a native toolchain (ipk install unslung-native I think), but it takes so long to build things (especially on the autobuilders), that we recommend building cross. May 01 08:34:12 placid_: checking for libupnp... configure: error: Package requirements (libupnp >= 1.3.1) were not met. May 01 08:34:12 Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you May 01 08:34:12 installed software in a non-standard prefix. May 01 08:34:12 Alternatively you may set the libupnp_CFLAGS and libupnp_LIBS environment variables May 01 08:34:12 to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for May 01 08:34:13 more details. May 01 08:34:24 you need to fix that in ushare **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon May 01 09:59:56 2006
