**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Oct 05 02:59:56 2005 Oct 05 04:01:10 hi to all guys Oct 05 04:02:09 got a question: don't openslug store common log files in /var/logs ? Oct 05 04:02:30 i would like to use syslog() C calls for a project of mine Oct 05 04:02:49 but i don't find the outputs.... Oct 05 04:07:45 anyone there ? Oct 05 04:10:07 i'm here Oct 05 04:10:26 but I don;t know the answer... sorry Oct 05 04:15:02 another question Oct 05 04:15:14 i ve noticed a strange behaviour Oct 05 04:15:22 i ve booted my openslug 2.7 Oct 05 04:15:39 just logged with ssh Oct 05 04:16:11 at firts, running top, i get about 9100k of free memory Oct 05 04:16:19 but if i leave top running Oct 05 04:16:31 i see that free memory constantly decrese Oct 05 04:16:53 and no other applications are running! Oct 05 04:17:05 does someone knows why ? Oct 05 04:17:24 looks like a memory leak somewhere Oct 05 04:18:00 yes! Oct 05 04:18:25 :(( Oct 05 04:18:49 where can i post my current active processes list ? Oct 05 04:45:09 can I telnet from one slug to another? from openslug to unslung perhaps? Oct 05 04:46:16 of from unslung? Oct 05 11:09:20 ipkg install ipkg-utils Oct 05 11:09:21 Installing ipkg-utils (1.6cvs20050713-r9) to root... Oct 05 11:09:21 Downloading http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/openslug/cross/2.7-beta/ipkg-utils_1.6cvs20050713-r9_armeb.ipk Oct 05 11:09:24 Nothing to be done Oct 05 11:09:26 An error ocurred, return value: 1. Oct 05 11:09:29 Collected errors: Oct 05 11:09:30 Does anybody know how to fix this? Oct 05 11:09:33 ERROR: Cannot satisfy the following dependencies for ipkg-utils: python Oct 05 11:17:46 try ipkg install python-core Oct 05 11:41:53 hmm... Oct 05 11:43:11 ok, it's the RDEPENDS that's werd Oct 05 11:59:44 Oct 05 12:00:52 NAiL: I got python-core installed already. Something's weird there. Oct 05 12:04:49 yeah, it's the runtime depends that is wrong Oct 05 12:26:09 I'm trying a native compile of openssl. do_package complains about a missing ipkg-build. I assume that's in ipkg-utils, isn't it? Oct 05 12:26:38 it is Oct 05 12:27:36 koen|tv: thanks, so I will uninstall ipkg-link and install ipkg-utils now. Oct 05 12:45:55 hello, I can't acces www.openslug.org, which is a CNAME to berlios.de apparently... Oct 05 12:46:29 Yeah, I think berlios is down Oct 05 12:46:31 is there a mirror ? Oct 05 12:46:49 what are you looking for? The image or the tarball? Oct 05 12:47:06 yes the binary image Oct 05 12:47:12 2.7 Oct 05 12:48:06 there isn't a mirror Oct 05 12:54:27 I see. Would there be a nice soul to upload the image on a website/FTP ? cheers ! Oct 05 12:55:14 the best I can offer is to wait on berlios.de to come back alive Oct 05 12:55:33 alternatively, you could use the Master Makefile and build the openslug binary yourself Oct 05 12:56:07 yeah, but that'd be -head Oct 05 13:01:10 well, I've already launched a build but for 2.8b -- that's what I pulled by default. Oct 05 13:01:16 BTW is that stable ? I'm a bit worried of the 2.6.14rc2 kernel :-) Oct 05 13:05:38 There's a lot of kernel changes nowadays Oct 05 13:12:34 I'll stick to 2.7 for the moment I think Oct 05 13:13:52 until the patch-o-mania is finished, I'd recommend that, yes ;) Oct 05 13:21:07 Does the apache in 2.7 support php and openssl? Oct 05 13:30:07 not that I know Oct 05 13:30:13 debonaras does though Oct 05 13:30:18 IIRC Oct 05 13:33:42 where could I find DVB kernel modules for 2.7 ? do I have to compile them myself ? Oct 05 13:34:13 hmm.. dunno Oct 05 13:34:20 two sec Oct 05 13:34:37 doesn't look like there are any dvb modules, no Oct 05 13:34:58 anything in particular you need? If it's *all* modules, there's no problems putting them in the feed Oct 05 13:35:40 ?? "putting them in the feed" ?? Oct 05 13:36:44 yeah, I can put them in the ipkg feed Oct 05 13:36:45 NAiL: When I shopped for a NSLU2 distro debonaras sounded still pretty alpha so I opted for OpenSLUG. I'd like to run a low traffic web server on it, but SSL and php is a must have. Oct 05 13:36:54 so it's only "ipkg install kernel-module-dvb*" Oct 05 13:37:17 orem: you can boostrap debonaras from openslug, no reflashing necessary Oct 05 13:37:27 debonaras looks quite stable by me now ;) Oct 05 13:37:30 NAiL: thanks, I didn't know how ipkg works Oct 05 13:38:15 and I'm the one managing the feeds Oct 05 13:38:21 ;) Oct 05 13:38:25 NAiL: thats good to know. I'm currently compiling apache native. If I can't get php and ssl to work, I'd have another look at debonaras. Thanks! Oct 05 13:39:06 orem: np Oct 05 13:49:43 NaiL : sorry for being slow to understand, but why isn't there an .ipkg for all modules supported on NSLU2 (no PCI, etc) ? Oct 05 13:50:10 NaiL : like the major PC distros do Oct 05 13:50:44 well, I'm not sure why a lot of modules weren't enabled from the beginning Oct 05 13:50:50 I wasn't here at that time :P Oct 05 13:51:01 all the modules from the kernel tree can be install with the 'kernel-modules' meta package Oct 05 13:51:20 koen: yeah, but not all modules are compiled... Oct 05 13:51:34 which would kinda make sense Oct 05 13:51:43 ah, I see Oct 05 13:52:06 I read the question as "why isn't there a meta-package which installs all modules?" Oct 05 13:52:25 heh, yeah, I can see why ;) Oct 05 13:52:56 IIRC, it was a matter of getting kernel modules that were needed.... Oct 05 13:53:10 and then it was a space issue Oct 05 13:53:37 yeah, but the modules don't need to be installed ;) Oct 05 13:54:09 and how is a ipkg package created ? so I can build my own :-) Oct 05 13:54:34 kernel module ipkgs are built and packages automatically.. the only change needed is the defconfig Oct 05 13:55:06 I see Oct 05 13:55:27 so I have to make a full rebuild apparently Oct 05 13:55:37 no, only of the kernel itself Oct 05 13:55:38 of the kernel at least Oct 05 13:55:41 yeah Oct 05 13:56:02 so, source setup-env, edit defconfig, bb -cclean openslug-kernel && bb openslug-kernel Oct 05 13:56:14 * NAiL crosses fingers Oct 05 13:56:25 I just flashed one of my slugs to unstable Oct 05 13:58:37 and it failed :P Oct 05 13:58:46 NAiL: thanks a lot for all your help. Have to go to sleep ! :-) Bye Oct 05 13:58:53 snotling: np, good night Oct 05 13:59:54 root@slugave:~# uname -a Oct 05 13:59:54 Linux slugave 2.6.14-rc2 #1 Wed Oct 5 22:11:03 CEST 2005 armv5teb unknown Oct 05 14:00:06 well... atleast it's not *totally* borked Oct 05 14:30:08 hmm Oct 05 14:30:10 this is odd Oct 05 14:30:35 The status led goes green, but... the slug doesn't respond to ping Oct 05 14:31:20 I can boot from flash ok, and log in Oct 05 17:44:58 does anyone know why zd1211 doesn't work on the latest kernels? Oct 05 17:46:08 nevermind Oct 06 00:00:49 good morning all Oct 06 00:30:44 hi to everyone Oct 06 00:38:56 hi koen Oct 06 00:41:06 koen, did I tell you about the mod to the usb <-> serial cable that should allow slug to boot even if usb side is not plugged in? Oct 06 00:47:49 ByronT: you mentioned something about an extra resistor Oct 06 00:48:44 yeah, dyoung and messed around and finally came up with something that either works all the time or not at all... heh Oct 06 00:49:02 it seamt to be cable specific Oct 06 00:49:37 uggh... it's almost 3AM for me Oct 06 00:50:04 I'll try to get the specifics into the wiki - it's an easy enough mod Oct 06 00:57:13 i am experiencing a stange behaviour with a simple code i ve written for my openslug Oct 06 00:57:37 it simply must log lines to a file Oct 06 00:58:03 so it's common C: fopen, fclose, fputs.... Oct 06 00:58:34 but i see that every time i call an fputs/fprintf call my free memory goes down a little! Oct 06 00:59:03 i suppose the kernel is caching my datas somewhere... **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Oct 06 02:59:56 2005
