**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Sep 13 02:59:56 2005 Sep 13 08:14:01 Hi i am trying to build openslug from source but i have a big problem, this i part of the output: Sep 13 08:14:03 NOTE: package gnu-config-native-0.1cvs20050701-r4: task do_unpack: completed Sep 13 08:14:04 NOTE: package gnu-config-native-0.1cvs20050701-r4: task do_patch: started Sep 13 08:14:04 NOTE: Applying patch 'config-guess-uclibc.patch' Sep 13 08:14:04 ERROR: function do_patchcmd failed Sep 13 08:15:31 is it a known bug or am i missing something? Sep 13 08:17:57 the actual error message would be more helpfull Sep 13 12:27:04 [g2]: more links available! Sep 13 12:27:21 <[g2]> heh Sep 13 12:27:37 <[g2]> you should probably purge that old background page you snarfed Sep 13 12:28:12 <[g2]> it was a good guess though :) Sep 13 12:28:17 :) Sep 13 12:28:46 <[g2]> my wife talked me in to starting out with a higher-ground approach Sep 13 12:29:24 <[g2]> the prototypes are booting and running Linux Sep 13 12:29:25 is gbit ethernet also under consideration Sep 13 12:29:38 <[g2]> I've run gigE with MiniPCI Sep 13 12:29:57 <[g2]> but for this unit it really makes no sense to me Sep 13 12:30:12 <[g2]> I got 200Mbs throughput though Sep 13 12:30:29 the lower latency is nice Sep 13 12:30:38 and it leaves a bit of headroom Sep 13 12:31:06 <[g2]> did I tell you about my NAS ? Sep 13 12:31:13 <[g2]> or GigE server ? Sep 13 12:31:13 not yet Sep 13 12:31:18 <[g2]> my AMD64 box Sep 13 12:31:24 ah yes Sep 13 12:31:35 with realdrek cards Sep 13 12:31:46 <[g2]> that's one Sep 13 12:32:08 <[g2]> basically it's almost the identical price $350 US Sep 13 12:32:14 <[g2]> but that does 600Mbs through put Sep 13 12:32:33 and 300W more power consumption Sep 13 12:32:36 <[g2]> I'm getting 400+ off the SATA drive Sep 13 12:32:49 <[g2]> right Sep 13 12:33:06 <[g2]> so it depends on how much performance you want Sep 13 12:33:22 <[g2]> a 533 with the GigE on it would be pretty nicde Sep 13 12:34:15 I reached 930Mbs with wget a file in parallel Sep 13 12:34:29 <[g2]> nod. Sep 13 12:34:36 that's on a 1800+ box with an intel gigE NIC Sep 13 12:34:39 <[g2]> I did 2.4 Gbit through the stack Sep 13 12:35:05 <[g2]> that's TCP throughput of 2.4Gbs Sep 13 12:35:42 we could always use http://heroinewarrior.com/firehose.php3 Sep 13 12:35:49 <[g2]> and given that the mobo can get flashed and take the X2 AMD64 cores I really don't see much of a need for other options Sep 13 12:36:25 * koen is very happy with his dual 2800+ workstation Sep 13 12:36:42 <[g2]> My Knoppix DVD iso image is 940MB Sep 13 12:36:56 <[g2]> it nfs xfer's in under 30 seconds Sep 13 12:37:28 <[g2]> or maybe that was with ttcp Sep 13 12:37:37 <[g2]> probably NFS though Sep 13 12:38:20 <[g2]> so basically at about 2-4 mintues to xfer a DVD I could probably transfer nearly all my DVD in the time it takes to watch one Sep 13 12:38:39 <[g2]> maybe two cause I've probably got 30-60 Sep 13 12:39:53 <[g2]> koen which distro do you use for your desktop ? Sep 13 12:40:06 <[g2]> or did you build your own Sep 13 12:40:07 at the moment ubuntu Sep 13 12:40:14 <[g2]> really ? Sep 13 12:40:20 <[g2]> are you running 64 bit ? Sep 13 12:40:41 no, it's a plain old athlon MP Sep 13 12:40:52 <[g2]> Ahh... Sep 13 12:41:08 <[g2]> Is there a server distro with ubuntu ? Sep 13 12:41:17 yes, debian :) Sep 13 12:41:26 <[g2]> heh Sep 13 12:42:09 <[g2]> damn... I'm gonna probably gonna have to bite the bullet and debootstrap debian Sep 13 12:42:30 <[g2]> twice.... once for the Xscale and once for the AMD64 Sep 13 12:46:05 any pictures of the hardware available yet? Sep 13 12:46:26 <[g2]> unfortunately not today.... Sep 13 12:46:34 <[g2]> someone forgot their camera ! Sep 13 12:47:12 <[g2]> did I mention the proto's were booting Linux ? Sep 13 12:51:10 yes :) Sep 13 12:55:00 <[g2]> cooll Sep 13 12:55:04 <[g2]> bbl Sep 13 12:55:07 <[g2]> cheers Sep 13 15:29:51 'night all Sep 14 01:35:47 good morning all **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Sep 14 02:59:56 2005
