**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Aug 03 02:59:57 2009 Aug 03 08:23:17 anyone ordered sheeva from globalscale to europe? Aug 03 08:32:16 ukki: A few here have Aug 03 08:33:35 there is quite a few people here from europe. (UK and Netherlands for sure) Aug 03 08:35:23 just wondering how long it takes Aug 03 08:36:41 Global Scale is slow and has hopless communication to be honest. Aug 03 08:37:00 Though the main rush might be slowing so it might not be too bad now. Aug 03 08:44:12 did anyone have to pay toll? Aug 03 08:44:33 i ordered it 23/7, hopefully it will come soon Aug 03 08:46:14 any chance of getting vdr to run on it? Aug 03 08:48:24 hello Aug 03 08:48:28 i ordered from europe Aug 03 08:48:34 on 6/27 Aug 03 08:49:01 its not shipped yet...and i got no answer from globalscale on 2 emails yet Aug 03 08:52:05 sorry.....just checked my spam folder...the globalscale answer was in there...so they did respond :-) Aug 03 08:56:53 what did they say? Aug 03 08:58:01 so i guess i better stop holding my breath Aug 03 08:58:37 Thank you for your order.

Aug 03 08:59:57 commit a88656553d18c324554855fccc730c9644048111 Aug 03 09:00:00 oops Aug 03 09:13:28 k, thanks Aug 03 11:46:14 anyone know if there's any hope of running vdr in sheeva? Aug 03 11:54:57 ukki: if you do not need to transcode it may work. let us know if it does... Aug 03 11:55:54 well i can live without transcoding, but that was my next plan Aug 03 17:49:58 * Q_Continuum grumbles about his 2009.06.19 order having not shipped yet...4 weeks my butt... Aug 03 17:50:28 Up to 6.5 weeks. lol Aug 03 17:51:03 from where? Aug 03 17:51:29 Globalscale. Aug 03 17:51:36 :( Aug 03 17:51:47 i really need to stop holding my breath then Aug 03 17:52:00 Someone else who ordered same day as me had his ship out on the 28th of July Aug 03 17:52:09 So I dunno if they ran out halfway through that day's orders or what. Aug 03 17:52:25 When I called last week, another shipment was clearing customs. Aug 03 17:52:34 which is 1-5 days, from my understanding. Aug 03 17:54:17 Seems to be 8 weeks, based on the most recent posts on "Received yours yet?" thread. Aug 03 17:54:21 http://plugcomputer.org/plugforum/index.php?topic=8.105 Aug 03 17:54:59 Top post on page 8 got lucky, ordered same day as me - must've been a post-midnight order. Mine went in at 6AM and still hasn't been filled. Aug 03 17:57:43 i ordered it july 23th and was wondering what is taking so long :p Aug 03 17:57:52 not anymore Aug 03 17:59:27 ha, yeah Aug 03 17:59:33 It'll be awhile. Aug 03 17:59:40 Consider it a nice surprise when it does show. Aug 03 18:00:40 i just hope i still live here when it arrives Aug 03 18:00:45 selling the house Aug 03 18:00:47 lol Aug 03 18:01:04 change your address now to somewhere you can pick it up? Aug 03 18:01:14 friend who's NOT moving, or family? Aug 03 18:01:23 no, i'll just tell the buyer he has to wait Aug 03 18:01:35 lol Aug 03 18:01:42 how far you moving? Aug 03 18:02:01 i guess i can setup scratchbox and start compiling apps for it beforehand? Aug 03 18:02:10 not far, around 20 km Aug 03 18:02:38 If you do move before it arrives, just have them call you or something :-P Aug 03 18:02:50 Likely the mail would miss something anyway. Aug 03 18:06:18 well i'm not scared of i yet Aug 03 19:43:04 Hi, is there a good troubleshooting resource? I got my plug today and already messed things up. Updated the ubuntu and I can no longer get access to the plug Aug 03 19:44:59 <_dieter_> MarkG: Hi, there is a wiki page regarding flashing an OS to the plug: http://plugcomputer.org/plugwiki/index.php/Flashing_an_Operating_System_onto_the_Plug Aug 03 19:45:45 <_dieter_> MarkG: and there is also an installer available which makes live more ease: http://plugcomputer.org/plugwiki/index.php/SheevaPlug_Installer Aug 03 19:46:01 <_dieter_> hope this helps to get your plug up again :) Aug 03 19:46:34 Is there a easy was to determine what I did wrong? it all stopped working after a apt-get distupgrade Aug 03 19:47:06 <_dieter_> hm, do you get some boot messages on your console (mini usb connector)? Aug 03 19:47:08 didn't even gt off the New Plugger How To page! Aug 03 19:47:27 havn't tried that yet. Aug 03 19:47:44 should I be able to log in with the serial terminal Aug 03 19:48:06 <_dieter_> at least you should see some bootmsg and we can see what went wrong. Aug 03 19:48:16 <_dieter_> I assume you tried to connect via ssh? Aug 03 19:48:33 yes, currenty puty Aug 03 19:49:09 <_dieter_> so you couldn't see what went wrong if you login fails - that's why I would suggest to connect by the mini usb connector. Aug 03 19:49:30 I am wondering if it's because when I did the apt-get distupgrade, it told me I had modified dhcpclient.conf (which I had), and asked what I wanted to do Aug 03 19:49:50 I chose to replace it with the maintainers default (which I assumed would be good) Aug 03 19:49:57 <_dieter_> That's possible. Aug 03 19:50:12 and would be consistent with why I cant reach it across IP Aug 03 19:50:28 Will try the serial console Aug 03 19:50:34 see what it says Aug 03 19:50:34 <_dieter_> yup Aug 03 20:45:08 Got my plug back from the land of the dead. Aug 03 20:46:35 I logged on via serial, and then ran dhclient, and it went off an got a IP properly. Seems the ubuntu dist-update process somehow changed my startup stuff. Aug 03 20:47:21 how can I be sure that the startup scripts start up my networking correctly? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Aug 04 02:59:57 2009
