**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Apr 11 23:59:56 2005 Apr 12 00:04:48 was the openslug lack of entropy issue ever solved? Apr 12 00:33:00 jacques: ping Apr 12 00:33:25 hi ka6sox Apr 12 00:33:28 hi there Apr 12 00:33:40 back in the saddle? Apr 12 00:33:48 well back home at least Apr 12 00:33:55 ah... Apr 12 00:34:10 getting my build machine caught up on the important gentoo stuff Apr 12 00:34:30 I like Gentoo the more I look at it... Apr 12 00:34:51 have you any experience with Ubuntu? Apr 12 00:35:47 no, I might look at it sometime soon tho Apr 12 00:35:59 not that I want to change from gentoo, but I wanna see what the fuss is about Apr 12 00:38:37 I'm thinking about getting a thinkpad Apr 12 00:38:52 I'm either going to use Gentoo for AMD64 or Ubuntu for AMD64 Apr 12 00:38:56 newegg has some decent prices - hmm did we already have this conversation while I was in OK ? Apr 12 00:39:09 I don't think so. Apr 12 00:39:43 strangely, the newegg prices are $300-400 less than ibm.com Apr 12 00:40:35 which model? Apr 12 00:40:39 and url? Apr 12 00:41:29 all their prices on thinkpads seem to be that much cheaper - I was configuring on ibm.com to compare Apr 12 00:44:26 OK, I'm thinking this: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=34-146-046&depa=0 Apr 12 00:44:41 and spending $300 to put in 1GB RAM and an 80GB HD Apr 12 00:45:08 14" screen has same res as 15", and makes the laptop lighter and thinner Apr 12 00:45:25 sweet Apr 12 00:45:30 I wish they had something more than radeon 9600 64MB, but ah well Apr 12 00:45:48 it will work... Apr 12 00:45:52 yep Apr 12 00:46:29 its the same one that dyoung has. Apr 12 00:46:43 ah great! Apr 12 00:47:02 makes me feel like I'm on the right track :-) Apr 12 00:47:17 if I had $1700 I would have bought that one. Apr 12 00:48:32 hmm, where is dyoung? he around these days? Apr 12 00:49:45 he is in .cn Apr 12 09:51:20 has anybody ever tried IPSec on openslug? Apr 12 09:54:24 <[g2]> nope Apr 12 09:55:06 hm... okay. So at least noone proved that it doesn't work. ;) Apr 12 09:55:17 I'll give it a try. Apr 12 09:55:21 <[g2]> cool Apr 12 09:55:33 <[g2]> I've just about built my first kernel on OpenSlug Apr 12 09:55:54 I need something to secure my wlan, IPSec sould be very handy Apr 12 09:56:03 really? how long did it take? Apr 12 09:56:12 <[g2]> nod, or just tunnel ssh over the wlan Apr 12 09:57:11 I'm looking for the most performant solution, ssh via dropbear is one of the slowest, I guess... :) Apr 12 09:57:47 <[g2]> depends on what you are doing right ? Apr 12 09:58:48 well, I want a vpn-tunnel from my wlan to the rest of the net. So, it would bee cool if openslug could handle all the 11mbit, dropbear can't. Apr 12 09:59:09 <[g2]> ahh... Apr 12 09:59:19 <[g2]> you're just running B Apr 12 09:59:39 and: I always wanted to try IPSec, so now is a good point in time! ;) Apr 12 10:00:07 <[g2]> it's built in to the 2.6 kernel I hear :) Apr 12 10:00:35 yes, actually I'm just now configuring my new openslug-kernel... let's hope it will still fit in 1MB afterwards... Apr 12 10:00:36 <[g2]> I think with AES it should run pretty zippy Apr 12 10:01:10 <[g2]> ah... that probably won't be much of a problem for long :) Apr 12 10:02:16 <[g2]> well I've built my first kernel natively, dunno if it runs and the IXP4XX modules aren't built natively yet Apr 12 10:07:48 hm... ipsec will have to wait till tomorrow, I'm off again. Apr 12 10:35:28 [g2]: Did something change with openslug-kernel lately? Apr 12 10:35:46 It's not reading in my defconfig file it seems suddendly??? odd. Apr 12 10:37:27 <[g2]> dunno, I've been playing with native compiles lately Apr 12 10:37:32 <[g2]> I haven't pulled in a while Apr 12 10:39:17 <[cc]smart> in principle, is there sbdy who would could be called openslig lead-developer ? Apr 12 10:39:35 native compiles? As in gcc-sdk? Apr 12 10:39:40 <[g2]> ummmm... I'm the "Release Manager" Apr 12 10:39:54 <[cc]smart> that qualifies :) Apr 12 10:39:58 <[g2]> I think there are a couple "lead developers" Apr 12 10:40:20 [g2]: does that mean you got the gcc package to work natively on the slug? Apr 12 10:40:54 <[cc]smart> is that meant to be anissue ? i had no problem compiling carderver with it Apr 12 10:41:43 <[g2]> VoodooZ_Work, I've built perl, apache 2.0, php5, and built a the OpenSlug kernel less the IXP4XX drivers Apr 12 10:41:54 <[g2]> perl didn't fully build Apr 12 10:42:14 <[g2]> but most of it built and there was a header issue to track down with sysv ipc Apr 12 10:42:33 <[g2]> I meant to say python Apr 12 10:42:40 <[g2]> I've even run Zope3 Apr 12 10:43:34 but in short: I could bitbake the gcc package and use it to compile my robot code natively? Apr 12 10:43:51 <[g2]> with some tweaks probably Apr 12 10:44:04 cool. Apr 12 10:44:09 <[g2]> there's about 20 or so minor steps Apr 12 10:44:11 Must be pretty big Apr 12 10:44:32 Not that I need it but it's cool to know it's working a little. Apr 12 10:44:46 weighted in at 120-130mb on my slug, IIRC Apr 12 10:44:51 ouch. Apr 12 10:44:58 understandable though. Apr 12 10:45:11 I wonder if they finally fixed gcc-sdk package. Apr 12 10:45:13 <[g2]> you'll need a HD with a disk for swap space Apr 12 10:45:29 i c. Apr 12 10:45:31 <[g2]> hmm.... didn't know there was a gcc-sck Apr 12 10:45:35 <[g2]> sdk Apr 12 10:45:53 I used almost 128mb swap when compiling samba natively, so you need quite a bit of swap ;) Apr 12 10:46:00 yeah, kergoth told me to use it for setting up my cross compiler on my portable but it didn't work Apr 12 10:46:35 I need a portable to connect to my robot anyways so I might as well build on it. Apr 12 11:07:33 odd. My CONFIG_USB_OV511=m line from my defconfig is totally ignored. I see that it's not in .config under build/tmp/work/openslug-kernel../linux-2.6.11.2/. Apr 12 11:07:52 Something doesn't like it or something. Apr 12 11:08:09 Strange as it's been in there for a few weeks and it worked. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Apr 12 23:59:56 2005
