Aug 24 03:15:34 <tuv> anyone having problems with nfs on debianSlug besides me? it keeps disconnecting
Aug 24 03:15:58 <tuv> i tried them all: nfs-kernel-server, nfs-user-server, and unfs3
Aug 24 06:47:52 <Caelian|work> i noticed that my NSLU's for some oddball reason don't actually update their x1205 RTC ... they only store the latest time set and restore that time upon system boot ... am i missing something dead obvious .. or has anybody else been able to observe the same behavior ?
Aug 24 06:53:36 <giallu> there should be a page on the wiki talking about the time. but I never read it :)
Aug 24 16:59:43 <joshin> Having gone through the Wiki (but not yet the mailinglist archives) which firmware alternative has the most free memory available (or is the fastest)?  My desire is to use a NSLU to burn DVD's of the disks attached as fast as possible.  I am quite linux experienced and was helped with OE a couple years back so am not intimidated by the more complex firmwares.
Aug 24 17:00:21 <CCFL_Man> you have vdsl from quest?
Aug 24 17:00:24 <joshin> I'm more interested in DRAM availability than flash
Aug 24 17:00:27 <CCFL_Man> is it adsl or vdsl?
Aug 24 17:00:28 <joshin> Yup.
Aug 24 17:00:51 <CCFL_Man> how much you pay fot vdsl?
Aug 24 17:01:14 <joshin> It is VDSL.  Pretty much fiber to the neighborhood and then brought in on copper.
Aug 24 17:01:38 <joshin> I pay $65/mo for 3.0/768 along with basic cable TV service.
Aug 24 17:01:50 <joshin> Including taxes and all other charges.
Aug 24 17:02:29 <joshin> They'll host a domain and no longer block ports.  The only negative is that they don't do static IP addresses.
Aug 24 17:55:07 <BlueAceX> hi
Aug 24 19:50:20 <joshin> Ok, its a few hours later since I last asked...  :)  Is there a firmware that is generally deemed faster than the others? 
Aug 24 20:40:59 <barnseenio> faster
Aug 24 20:41:00 <barnseenio> hmmmmm
Aug 24 20:41:13 <barnseenio> no idea, but debianslug has worked out lovely for me
Aug 24 20:46:56 <Ibuprofen> i must be doing something wrong. i will do an 'ipkg update' to get the latest and then 'ipkg upgrade' and i've yet to have anything actually upgrade
Aug 24 20:47:08 <Ibuprofen> and i've had this for a couple months now
Aug 24 20:47:14 <Ibuprofen> surely there's got to be new packages 
Aug 24 20:47:48 <Ibuprofen> the version of mysql that I have on my slug isn't working with os x. i really need to get it upgraded
Aug 24 20:48:46 <marceln> There is a package list on the website as well. So you could cross check it.
Aug 24 20:49:03 <Ibuprofen> is there an experimental package setting?
Aug 24 20:49:24 <Ibuprofen> im used to gentoo, which had a config you could change to get newer stuff that hadnt been marked as stable yet
Aug 24 20:49:51 <marceln> The version i can find on the slug is "mysql - 4.1.20-1 - Popular free SQL database system"
Aug 24 20:50:10 <Ibuprofen> woops
Aug 24 20:50:12 <Ibuprofen> i meant samba
Aug 24 20:50:16 <Ibuprofen> dunno why i said mysql
Aug 24 20:50:31 <marceln> Are you running unslug?
Aug 24 20:51:10 <Ibuprofen> tony@slug:~$ uname -a
Aug 24 20:51:10 <Ibuprofen> Linux slug 2.6.16 #1 PREEMPT Fri Jun 9 07:34:31 PDT 2006 armv5teb unknown
Aug 24 20:51:17 <Ibuprofen> openslug i believe
Aug 24 20:51:26 <Ibuprofen> samba - 3.0.20-r4 - Version 3.0.20-r4 of package samba
Aug 24 20:51:30 <Ibuprofen> that's my samba version
Aug 24 20:51:53 <marceln> I run unslung 6.8. I don't now the versions for openslug.
Aug 24 20:53:14 <Ibuprofen> how can i check to see which distro i am running
Aug 24 20:53:24 <Ibuprofen> i should know this. hehe
Aug 24 20:53:29 <Ibuprofen> :O
Aug 24 20:56:16 <Ibuprofen> maybe i am using unslung
Aug 24 20:56:24 <marceln> No.
Aug 24 20:56:38 <marceln> Unslung uses the 2.4 kernel.
Aug 24 20:56:43 <Ibuprofen> oooh
Aug 24 20:57:22 <marceln> I have found the list for openslug: http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/openslug/cross/3.10-beta/
Aug 24 21:05:17 <Ibuprofen> wow i have the latest
Aug 24 21:05:21 <Ibuprofen> :/
Aug 24 22:11:58 <andreTTi> maybe this is a silly question, but would it be possible to get Valknut (a directconnect client) running on a slug with unslung firmware?
Aug 24 22:12:51 <andreTTi> url: http://dcgui.berlios.de/index.php
Aug 24 22:13:30 <andreTTi> or some other dc client?
Aug 24 22:31:56 <eno-away> andreTTi: add your request to http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Unslung/PackageWishList
Aug 24 22:32:29 <eno-away> but if it's GUI, i doubt it runs well on a slug
Aug 24 22:34:57 <andreTTi> itīs Gui
Aug 24 22:36:58 <eno-away> console apps faster than web apps faster than GUI apps on the slug
Aug 24 22:38:15 <andreTTi> yes. do you know of any good console dc clients?
Aug 24 22:38:47 <eno-away> i don't know dc at all
Aug 24 22:38:53 <andreTTi> would be really hard to use though
Aug 24 22:39:20 <andreTTi> ok.. itīs a filesharing "protocol"
Aug 24 22:39:41 <andreTTi> popular in sweden =)
Aug 24 22:39:54 <eno-away> i c.
Aug 24 22:40:53 <andreTTi> would be really cool if I could have a slug running dc at my friends place.. he has 100/100 fiber connection
Aug 24 22:41:16 <eno-away> http://www.softservice.com.pl/ldcc/
Aug 24 22:43:39 <andreTTi> thanks.. I donīt really know how to compile it though.. have to learn that first.. =/ so much to learn in the linux world.. 
Aug 24 22:45:25 <eno-away> add your request, maybe someone will add it as a package
Aug 24 22:46:27 <andreTTi> yes I will do that and keep my fingers crossed =)
