Mar 31 17:12:28 <rayt509> Hi, I am having issues with unslinging my NSLU. The root always seems to stay as the internal memory. Can anyone give me some pointers?
Mar 31 17:16:50 <pahartik> rayt509: assuming it is OpenSlug, did you "turnup"?
Mar 31 17:18:46 <rayt509> Apologies, I am using unslung 5.5.
Mar 31 19:29:20 <capbot> caplink811 :)
Mar 31 19:30:52 <Mika_> hey evening caplink811 
Mar 31 19:31:21 <caplink811> morning, Mika_ , are you real ?
Mar 31 19:31:57 <Mika_> Yes as always :)
Mar 31 19:32:28 * caplink811 thinks, i'm a little bit crazy, talking with a script
Mar 31 19:49:38 <capbot> caplink811 :)
Mar 31 19:50:37 <Mika_> welcome back :)
Mar 31 19:51:13 <caplink811> thx, i'm searching the client, but it seems it'll be xchat
Mar 31 19:51:51 <caplink811> s/the/the right /
Mar 31 19:51:52 <capbot> caplink811 meant: thx, i'm searching the right  client, but it seems it'll be xchat
Mar 31 19:52:38 <Mika_> Why ..do you need a new client for irc ?
Mar 31 19:53:36 <caplink811> not realy, just try some clients, but the benefit of xchat is, that is available, and equal on linux and win, so i'stay with it
Mar 31 19:54:45 <Mika_> Yes that is true.. and xchat works fine..but i like irssi more then all other clients
Mar 31 19:55:09 <Mika_> Mirc or clients like that are so big 
Mar 31 19:55:38 <caplink811> hm, i'm not realy familar with the behaviour of irssi, this window switching drives me crazy :(
Mar 31 19:56:22 <Nimmit> hey caplink
Mar 31 19:56:36 <Nimmit> I was playing around earlier but didn't figure it out
Mar 31 19:56:45 <Nimmit> how do you jail a user to a certain dir in ssh
Mar 31 19:57:00 <Mika_> You can learn irssi quick and it is nice to work with it without mouse
Mar 31 19:57:04 <Nimmit> I have the BASH shell installed
Mar 31 19:57:48 <caplink811> Nimmit: that didn't depends on ssh..
Mar 31 19:58:42 <Nimmit> when I create a user, they get /home/username, but the can cd .. out of it
Mar 31 20:00:24 <caplink811> Mika_: at the last years i became familar with the mouse ;)
Mar 31 20:00:37 <caplink811> Nimmit: yes, that is the usual behaviour
Mar 31 20:00:58 * Nimmit is just trying to learn
Mar 31 20:01:07 <Mika_> caplink811: Yes ? ..i see the last year it is beter to try to do more without mouse
Mar 31 20:02:21 <caplink811> Nimmit: this link http://www.tjw.org/chroot-login-HOWTO/ may help you to resolv your problem
Mar 31 20:02:49 <Nimmit> thanks
Mar 31 20:04:32 <caplink811> Mika_: nevermind, but at work, everything is a windows environment, so i'forced to use it at home in the majority of cases
Mar 31 20:05:55 <Mika_> Yes i understand :).. BUt it is weekend now and we are free from work :)
Mar 31 20:06:30 <caplink811_log> sure... so in the moment the environment is dapper drake
Mar 31 20:07:16 <Mika_> Oww so you use a beta version of ubuntu ?
Mar 31 20:07:36 <Mika_> i use breezy at the moment
Mar 31 20:07:45 <caplink811_log> no problem at all, kde runs at 3.5.2, but the kernel is selfmade
Mar 31 20:08:50 <Mika_> why do you use a selfmade kernel caplink811_log 
Mar 31 20:09:16 <caplink811_log> myself used breezy until the mainboard died, so the most things on the linux partition are gone, and so i now use breezy, upgraded to dapper drake
Mar 31 20:09:41 <caplink811_log> running 2.16.1 atm
Mar 31 20:09:50 <caplink811_log> 2.6.16.1
Mar 31 20:10:12 <caplink811_log> those version numbers drives me crazy, too
Mar 31 20:10:26 <Mika_> So your not running debian anymore ? 
Mar 31 20:10:57 <caplink811_log> and since 0.9.x i build all kernel by myself, without fakeroot, and all these other terrible things
Mar 31 20:10:59 <Mika_> i like ubuntu alot most work out of the box and when you have a problem there is somuch information on the net
Mar 31 20:11:15 <caplink811_log> debian is on pigpen (opendebianslug)
Mar 31 20:11:46 <Mika_> ok and without all terrible things in the kernel ..makes it faster /more stable ?
Mar 31 20:11:50 <caplink811_log> and it is more state of the art as debian (sid/etch what ever)
Mar 31 20:13:08 <Mika_> yes .. the first version was compleet debian..
Mar 31 20:13:20 <caplink811_log> kernel, imho, not, but for me it is like a rote, or addiction
Mar 31 20:13:22 <Mika_> with some beter hardware detection
Mar 31 20:13:47 <Mika_> ok it is much work to build a own kernel
Mar 31 20:14:14 <caplink811_log> no need for this, since 3 weeks ago my workstation was a pIII at 800mhz
Mar 31 20:15:02 <caplink811_log> kernel, make xconfig (or make menuconfig); make bzImage;make modules;make modules_install (last step as root)
Mar 31 20:15:12 <caplink811_log> basically
Mar 31 20:15:38 <Mika_> yes but then you have turn on and out things in xconfig
Mar 31 20:15:57 <Mika_> so you must good know what you need and what not
Mar 31 20:16:05 * caplink811_log is going back to win now, time for home banking business
Mar 31 20:16:38 <caplink811_log> the modern kernels are modular, so you can build nearly everything as module
Mar 31 20:17:38 <Mika_> Yes but then do you not build a own kernel or do you not use modules ?
Mar 31 20:23:31 <caplink811_log> only build the important/basic things in e.g. network and filesystem (and the drives for those), the rest like sound or tv card is modular
Mar 31 20:28:53 <Mika_> yes.. it is nice when you know what you are doing ..when you live closser you can drink a beer here and show me how to do :)
Mar 31 20:29:13 <caplink811_log> nice idea it is :)
Mar 31 20:30:34 <Mika_> my wife looks over my sholder and say the beer is a nice idea
Mar 31 20:31:48 <caplink811_log> my wife is on the phone since 2 or 3 hours, so silence is all around ;)
Mar 31 20:32:59 <Mika_> on the phone for 2 or 3 hours ?? go ask if she have a new boyfriend :P
Mar 31 20:36:17 <caplink811_log> normally it is her sister, or colleague, as women are, 8 hour at work, 3 hours at phone, talking at work :(
Mar 31 20:37:48 <Mika_> hehe i know.. my wife is much at msn with colleague`s 
Mar 31 21:15:15 <mijenix> hi
Mar 31 21:15:31 <rwhitby> hi
Mar 31 21:15:53 <mijenix> why my new nslu2 doesn detect my usb stick?
Mar 31 21:16:15 <mijenix> rwhitby: ;-)
Mar 31 21:16:38 <marceln> There are lots of reasons for that.
Mar 31 21:17:04 <mijenix> marceln: it's a 128 MB USB 2.0 usb stick fresh formatted under windows
Mar 31 21:17:04 <rwhitby> marceln: mijenix is going to follow up with a correctly stated question ... :-)
Mar 31 21:17:05 <marceln> Even a few centimeters (or inches if you prefer) will do.
Mar 31 21:17:37 <mijenix> I plug it in and the led from the stick is green but the led og the nslu2 will stay black
Mar 31 21:17:43 <mijenix> I plug it in and the led from the stick is green but the led og the nslu2 will stay off
Mar 31 21:18:06 <rwhitby> what does the web interface admin->disk page say?
Mar 31 21:18:11 <mijenix> and on the web config tool I seen no disk to start,share or format
Mar 31 21:18:58 <mijenix> disk1: not installed disk2: not installed
Mar 31 21:19:30 <rwhitby> what version of stock firmware?  how many partitions of what type are on the usb stick?
Mar 31 21:19:52 <marceln> And what kind of filesystem (fat or ntfs)?
Mar 31 21:20:06 <mijenix> rwhitby: Version: V2.3R24 1 FAT32 Partition on the usb stick
Mar 31 21:21:17 <rwhitby> it doesn't have any funky security partition stuff on the usb stick does it ?
Mar 31 21:21:27 <mijenix> rwhitby: no
Mar 31 21:21:52 <mijenix> maybe I should download the new firmware for the nslu2
Mar 31 21:21:57 <rwhitby> well, everything seems within spec, so I have no idea why it isn't been recignised as a FLASH disk by stock firmware.
Mar 31 21:21:57 <mijenix> ?
Mar 31 21:22:16 <marceln> Do you use port 1 or 2 on the slug?
Mar 31 21:22:22 <mijenix> port 2
Mar 31 21:22:25 <rwhitby> install Unslung 5.5 - if that doesn't see it then nothing will.
Mar 31 21:22:59 <rwhitby> or install openslug, then you can look at the dmesg as you insert the usb stick
Mar 31 21:23:05 <mijenix> rwhitby: ok
Mar 31 21:23:27 <rwhitby> you can always flash back to stock firmware
Mar 31 21:23:30 <mijenix> rwhitby: can I every time go back to the stock firmware from linksys after flashing the openSLUG firmware?
Mar 31 21:23:42 <mijenix> rwhitby: ok then i'll try
Mar 31 21:23:52 <rwhitby> you can always go from any slug firmware version to any other slug firmware version using the upgrade mode method.
Mar 31 21:40:53 <mijenix> rwhitby: what is the default ip after flashing openSLUG
Mar 31 21:40:54 <mijenix> ?
Mar 31 21:41:29 <rwhitby> should be what you set in the stock firmware as a static ip, or dhcp if you didn't.
Mar 31 21:45:03 <mijenix> rwhitby: yes
Mar 31 21:45:12 <mijenix> rwhitby: I love it it works with openSLug
Mar 31 21:45:20 <mijenix> it detect my 5.0 GB pocket hd
Mar 31 21:45:24 <mijenix> I'm so happy
Mar 31 21:45:31 <mijenix> I love u guys
Mar 31 21:45:36 <mijenix> rwhitby: thx thx thx
Mar 31 21:50:07 <mijenix> rwhitby: maybe the firmware was old for my devices?
Apr 01 00:00:08 <_snow2> Hey guys
Apr 01 00:01:56 <_snow2> i'm thinking of making my slug to be a backup/stream server, that's gonna stream mp3's and backup/sync different documents/pictures to 2 computers, anyone that can recommand some programs to that?
Apr 01 06:36:42 <Nimmit> caplink811_log
Apr 01 06:36:44 <Nimmit> you around
