**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Jun 27 23:59:56 2005 **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Jun 28 10:26:29 2005 Jun 28 11:57:45 [g2]: Are you including ipv6 in the slug kernel? Jun 28 11:57:58 <[g2]> beewoolie-afk, not right now Jun 28 11:58:06 <[g2]> but it's probably no big deal Jun 28 11:58:12 rr sent me a funny note yesterday. Jun 28 11:58:23 <[g2]> oh do tell ;) Jun 28 11:58:54 I was cajoling someone on the arm mailing list who asked: "how do I port the kernel from 2.4 to 2.6 on platform frobznot?" Jun 28 11:59:08 <[g2]> :) and Jun 28 11:59:08 I wrote back, "the fun is in figuring it out" Jun 28 11:59:16 rr called me a smart-ass Jun 28 11:59:29 He asked about our experiences on the 42x. Jun 28 11:59:54 I told me what we persevered without the library and that I though the library was too much for us (read me) to handle. Jun 28 12:00:15 He said that that is the same thing he'd heard from other developers, but there is no priority on fixing it because... Jun 28 12:00:19 "it works for MV". Jun 28 12:00:40 Kinda interesting. Jun 28 12:00:55 As for the ipv6,I'm moving my home network to a dual-stack setup. Jun 28 12:01:03 I'd like to add the slug to it. Jun 28 12:01:07 <[g2]> to me it's a house of cards for the sw guys Jun 28 12:01:10 IPv6 gives me some awesome new features. Jun 28 12:01:25 The library is a house of cards? Jun 28 12:01:43 <[g2]> no I mean the sw business model in general Jun 28 12:01:58 I can not ssh to my notebook when it is enabled. Jun 28 12:02:05 Hmm. You mean MV/ Jun 28 12:02:52 <[g2]> well MV is a marketing and channel play in my mind Jun 28 12:02:52 I have to agree. There's still some tension in the sw market. an MS lackey released yet another report stating that service packs are cheaper to apply to windows than Linux. Jun 28 12:03:00 They neglect to mention frequency of application. Jun 28 12:03:25 There are still some fearful out there who want the hand-holding. It's way expensive, tho. Jun 28 12:03:36 <[g2]> MV is the Cisco of embedded linux Jun 28 12:03:48 <[g2]> but the dynasty won't last for very long Jun 28 12:04:01 I think that I have a little more confidence in Cisco than I do MV. Jun 28 12:04:22 I've been doing a fari bit of work with some cisco gear the last couple of weeks. More to come. Jun 28 12:04:23 <[g2]> yeah but at least they had a 15+ year run Jun 28 12:04:40 You think cisco is headed for a downfall? Jun 28 12:04:49 <[g2]> and the enterprise big iron market isn't going go change overnight Jun 28 12:05:29 <[g2]> I think Cisco will have there work cut out for them in the coming years Jun 28 12:05:42 <[g2]> it's kinda like buying IBM a decade ago Jun 28 12:05:51 One of my clients is *crazy* for HP and Cisco. They'll buy outrageous. Jun 28 12:05:55 <[g2]> "Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM" Jun 28 12:06:01 Or MSFT. Jun 28 12:06:29 But G2 enterprises. That's a different story! Jun 28 12:06:42 <[g2]> funny you should mention that :) Jun 28 12:07:03 Funny strange? or Funny Ha Ha? **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Jun 28 16:39:15 2005 Jun 28 19:23:33 what is the default root password of openslug? Jun 28 19:24:00 <[g2]-away> opeNSLUg Jun 28 19:25:04 thanks Jun 28 19:25:11 I was close :) Jun 28 20:02:56 heh, openslug really crammed the internal flash :) Jun 28 20:03:25 mf.. no ipv6 **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Jun 28 23:59:57 2005
