**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Oct 29 02:59:56 2007 Oct 29 09:10:37 hello, i'm having serious problems with my slug, anyone here to answer a question? Oct 29 09:11:13 * barnseenio is here Oct 29 09:11:13 it doesn't do anything anymore, when i press the power button, the light behind it just flashes, all the other lights on top stay off and nothing happens Oct 29 09:11:29 tried the mailing list? Oct 29 09:11:45 you'll probly get a faster more comprehensive answer than in here Oct 29 09:11:46 nope i didn't ask my question there yet Oct 29 09:12:05 info about the mailing list is on the nslu2-linux site i assume? Oct 29 09:12:58 yes, its a yahoo group/mailing list Oct 29 09:13:29 great, i'll try right away Oct 29 09:13:31 tnx Oct 29 19:31:51 <_kamera_> is it possible to put 2 drives into the nslu2? I want a raid 1 backup system. Oct 29 19:35:38 Sure Oct 29 19:36:19 <_kamera_> so does it have space for 2, or would i have to keep the other drive outside the device? Oct 29 19:37:09 The NSLU2 has no internal drives; it has two USB ports that can connect to a number (depending on software) of external USB drives. Oct 29 19:37:26 <_kamera_> USB ports?? Oct 29 19:37:45 <_kamera_> hows the reliablity of the usb writes? Oct 29 19:39:01 USB compared to ATA or SATA is very slow. Reliability is not as good, but often that is because of people using cheap USB cables, poor routing of cables, and similar problems (not really the fault of USB) Oct 29 19:39:32 <_kamera_> hmm.. Oct 29 19:40:03 If you check the wiki (http://www.nslu2-linux.org/) you'll find a number of other devices that are supported by the NSLU2 project, some of which have one (or even more) internal hard drives. Oct 29 19:40:08 <_kamera_> know of any device which can host 2 drives internally (via sata or ide) and is not a full blown desktop type device. Oct 29 19:40:13 <_kamera_> thnks Oct 30 00:54:11 I have a question on installing foo2zjs on my NSLU2 running unslung 6.8 Oct 30 00:54:44 anyone feel like humoring me? Oct 30 01:44:38 ~ask Oct 30 01:44:39 well, ask is Questions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise, and on-topic. Don't ask if you can ask a question first. Don't ask if a person is there, just ask what you intended to ask them. Better questions more frequently yield better answers. We are all here voluntarily or against our will. Oct 30 02:50:04 I am wondering if anyone has compiled foo2zjs using unslung 6.8 or if anyone can point me in the right direction on how to do that - it seems my printer will only working using foo2zjs with cups (i hope i am saying that right - not exactly a linux expert)... Oct 30 02:53:00 klemmer19: I can't say that I have, although I was considering trying something like it. I have a magicolor 2300 DL myself, and that requires foo2zjs. Oct 30 02:53:40 yeah i have an hp laserjet 1018 and it seems the cups database says i should use foo2zjs Oct 30 02:53:56 as i was going through the instructions, it gets to the part where i need to run "make" Oct 30 02:54:01 however, nothing happens Oct 30 02:54:21 please bear in mind that i am not much of a linux expert - only play around in it from time to time Oct 30 02:54:52 do you know if unslung has the ability to run make? because it appears it does not Oct 30 02:55:33 That I do not. You may need to install some sort of native compile environment... Or a cross-compile environment on another system. Oct 30 02:55:54 * nyef runs slugos, and not unslung. Oct 30 02:57:22 The best I can do at this point, I think, is to wish you luck. Oct 30 02:59:06 klemmer19: this may sound like a stupid question, but ... Did you install make? Oct 30 02:59:39 here is a stupid answer: i did not know i needed to :-/ **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Oct 30 02:59:56 2007
