Dec 12 03:16:07 <morfic> who in here has sheeva on a gigE network, what transfer rates do you see?
Dec 12 03:52:41 * trip0 still can't flash with openocd
Dec 12 04:47:13 <trip0> zomg, if this works, i'm going to kill something/someone
Dec 12 04:47:30 <trip0> openocd has to be compiled with the ftdi enabled?
Dec 12 05:01:11 <mwester> It's an ftdi chip in the plug... so I would expect so.
Dec 12 05:08:45 <tinker-f595_> it is already compiled for that
Dec 12 05:09:06 <tinker-f595_> it uses the ftdi module that is loaded on the host linux system
Dec 12 09:48:31 <kblin> morfic: I'm pretty sure my sheeva transfer rates are capped by the USB disk :)
Dec 12 09:49:36 <kblin> morfic: iperf gave me ~650 Mbit/sec
Dec 12 09:51:28 <kblin> but I can test an rsync transfer to a tmpfs dir later
Dec 12 09:56:02 <morfic> kblin, as long as you max your usb disk, that's more or less what i would be wanting to know
Dec 12 09:56:57 <kblin> morfic: I think so, I didn't try hdparm yet, hang on
Dec 12 09:59:36 <kblin> morfic: ok, hdparm claims I can do reads from the drive at ~30 MB/sec
Dec 12 09:59:38 <morfic> right now i max my 100mbps connection, to double what i get i would not mind buying a gigE pcexpresscard though
Dec 12 10:00:04 <kblin> how do you test your transfer speed?
Dec 12 10:01:19 <morfic> send a big file over to a nfs folder, time how long it takes
Dec 12 10:01:57 <kblin> ok, over nfs, that was the interesting part
Dec 12 10:02:28 <kblin> let me boot my pc
Dec 12 10:04:49 <morfic> thanks kblin
Dec 12 10:15:30 <kblin> morfic: ah, durn, I need to catch a bus. I'll do the test a bit later. but now that the PC is up, I can ssh into it from work :)
Dec 12 10:17:28 <morfic> kblin: thanks, no rush, will be redoing laptop, so no gigE purchase until it's back up, if i can't max usb drive though, i won't bother at all
Dec 12 13:11:08 <kblin> morfic: there we go, iperf reports 635 Mbits/sec over gigE
Dec 12 13:11:47 <kblin> morfic: from one gigE PC to the other I get closer to 960 Mbits/sec, so the sheevaplug is a tad slower
Dec 12 13:21:55 <arj> I just received my sheevaplug, and intend to install debian squeeze, however, uImage and uInitrd as linked on http://www.cyrius.com/debian/kirkwood/sheevaplug/install.html 404, anyone know a mirror (or a better installer? :)
Dec 12 13:22:04 <arj> (hello btw :)
Dec 12 13:22:48 <kblin> hi there. :) running the preinstalled ubuntu system myself
Dec 12 13:26:25 <kblin> morfic: ok, from tmpfs via nfs I get around 33 MB/sec over gigE
Dec 12 13:29:34 <kblin> morfic: smbclient claims 36 MB/sec from the same tmpfs
Dec 12 13:33:11 <kblin> morfic: from the USB disk, I can read at about 19MB/sec over nfs, and ~22MB/sec via smbclient
Dec 12 13:41:37 <kblin> morfic: writing is at about the same speeds
Dec 12 14:00:30 <armin76> arj: ask tbm
Dec 12 14:02:25 <arj> I noticed the older daily builds are there
Dec 12 14:02:58 <arj> today's build failed:
Dec 12 14:02:59 <arj> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
Dec 12 14:02:59 <arj>   netcfg: Depends: libiw29-udeb (>= 28+29pre7) but it is not installable
Dec 12 14:03:01 <arj> tbm, ^^
Dec 12 16:00:06 <morfic> kblin: thanks
Dec 12 19:57:11 <tbm> arj: just use the older image
