(im still messing with this spindown package) I tried cat /proc/stat but i dont know what to look for... im trying to see if my disk is being accessed Jan 15 14:35:09 neither do i Jan 15 14:35:10 lets see Jan 15 14:36:18 i have bought a usb stick to store the rootfs to stop unslung 6.8 accessing my disk and stopping the spindown Jan 15 14:36:40 takes an age to boot tho... is this normal? Jan 15 14:38:50 hmm Jan 15 14:38:54 i cant get access to my unslung nslu2... Jan 15 14:43:18 Reedy_Boy: do you know if the nslu2 can bear acpi? Jan 15 14:43:34 cause my hdd is always craching with apm now Jan 15 14:43:52 dont know what acpi is Jan 15 14:44:06 it's the power management Jan 15 14:44:25 "(Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) is a power management specification that allows the operating system to control the amount of power ..." Jan 15 14:44:36 yes Jan 15 14:44:48 sorry pp thought that was a q for me from reedy Jan 15 14:44:52 and apm was an old version used before the existance of the acpi Jan 15 14:44:58 ok ^^ Jan 15 14:45:50 Hmm Jan 15 14:46:07 I dont really know... i only know what i've picked up from other users/wiki/irc Jan 15 14:46:41 Great.. My unslung NSLU2 has gone tits up.. Jan 15 14:47:41 ooops :-( Jan 15 14:49:10 drive is intact it seems Jan 15 14:50:11 <38>Jan 15 14:37:18 sshd[473]: Server listening on 0.0.0.0 port 22. Jan 15 14:50:29 0.0.0.0 = all devices doesnt it? Jan 15 14:51:24 all interfaces, even Jan 15 14:55:07 hmm its beeping, but seemingly no ethernet access Jan 15 14:55:18 * Reedy_Boy has serial Jan 15 14:55:20 * Reedy_Boy should try it Jan 15 14:55:31 on a spindown what should i notice? should the drive go quiet and stop vibrating? Jan 15 14:58:54 when running a package as deamon is this similar to running a program as a service in windows? Jan 15 14:59:02 im just full of questions today :-) Jan 15 15:04:01 wally4793: i think that spindown stop your disk Jan 15 15:04:25 or it has a really slow rotation Jan 15 15:05:21 yeah i was just wondering to what degree. Anyway im sure mine isnt spinning down. Im checking proc/stat and i have 2 disk i/o readings one of which isnt changing so im assuming that is the disk and it isnt being accessed but yet is istn spinning down? Jan 15 15:08:22 as soon as i access the drive the readings change... not sure why the disk idle command isnt spinning down my drive tho :-( Jan 15 15:08:43 how good is the linux froum? i might try posting on there Jan 15 15:08:48 forum Jan 15 15:08:53 nslu2-general forum? Jan 15 15:08:58 yahoo mailing list? Jan 15 15:09:41 yeah i know a few people have posted this issue on there but most have said either downgrade to 5.5 (to stop random access to disk) or use usb stick for rootfs. Jan 15 15:10:06 the forum i mean. or maybe email the spindown author to see if he has any ideas? Jan 15 15:10:22 the forum? :S Jan 15 15:10:36 try emailing him, if you get a working answer, put it on the wiki Jan 15 15:10:50 ok i try that :-) Jan 15 15:17:34 your serial connection working reedy? Jan 15 15:20:35 ive just managed to take the wires out of the adapter thingy Jan 15 15:20:40 now need to put 3 back in Jan 15 15:23:25 is there a manual command to send to my disk to see if it will stop when asked to? Jan 15 15:24:14 * Reedy_Boy shrugs Jan 15 15:25:24 drivers installed, vista is configuring.. ready to use.. Jan 15 15:27:07 you think your ethernet connection is kaput? Jan 15 15:27:17 dunno Jan 15 15:27:22 i had a problem with this one before Jan 15 15:27:30 it wouldnt show ethernet when in redboot Jan 15 15:27:37 so i had it serialised and reflashed via serial.. Jan 15 15:28:11 i remember you telling me about that when i thought mine was bricked (it was vista/sercomm incompaitibity in the end) Jan 15 15:28:21 yaa Jan 15 15:28:27 Well, it looks to be writing to serial.. Jan 15 15:28:39 serial is slower that ethernet tho isnt it? Jan 15 15:28:42 a lot of random characters aswell as useful Jan 15 15:28:48 It is.. it took ages to reflash i was told Jan 15 15:29:48 and its beeped.. Jan 15 15:30:31 :-) Jan 15 15:31:49 but i cant seem to do much/anything via serial.. Jan 15 15:31:50 hmm Jan 15 15:33:47 mwester/mwester-laptop, you dont happen to be about do you? Jan 15 15:34:37 wally4793, seems the output is probably wrong..

Jan 15 15:48:17 bye bye Jan 15 15:48:19 Presuambly i should be able to type commands fine into telnet after boot? Jan 15 15:48:30 not telnet Jan 15 15:48:34 uCon for serial Jan 15 15:56:46 Seems to be stuck on the "checking disk" Jan 15 16:01:55 wally4793, its reset its IP to 192.168.1.77 for some strange reason :s Jan 15 16:05:11 SCSI disk error : host 0 channel 0 id 0 lun 0 return code = 6050000 Jan 15 16:05:11 I/O error: dev 08:00, sector 0 Jan 15 16:05:11 I/O error: dev 08:00, sector 2 Jan 15 16:08:14 wally4793, you know you said yours was booting slow... mine seems to now post installing spindown to try it ofr oyu.. Jan 15 16:33:06 i think mines got memory stick errors..

Jan 15 19:04:23 help Jan 15 19:04:44 openslugBE, I have installed cups and I have tried everything Jan 15 19:04:47 I can't login to cups Jan 15 19:04:52 on the web control Jan 15 19:06:15 on the good side though Jan 15 19:06:19 I did get it printer Jan 15 19:06:21 *printing Jan 15 19:14:51 turnup disk wont work on BE Jan 15 20:22:39 anyone around? Jan 15 20:24:30 ya Jan 15 20:37:30 you know anything about cups Jan 15 20:38:38 * DrJ at this point has it working Jan 15 20:38:41 it prints and all Jan 15 20:38:55 but ... I can't login to the control thing Jan 15 20:40:30 oh wait Jan 15 20:40:31 nvm Jan 15 20:40:32 cant get onto it all DrJ? Jan 15 20:40:33 that's odd Jan 15 20:40:37 now it appears to work Jan 15 20:40:41 hah Jan 15 20:40:44 I could, just couldn't login Jan 15 20:43:11 that was so confusing installing cups through the unslung optware Jan 15 20:43:22 kept on wanting to do ipkg instead of /opt/bin/ipkg Jan 15 20:43:29 * DrJ has fixed that though Jan 15 20:43:57 alias opt="/opt/bin/ipkg" Jan 15 20:44:09 so now I installed unslung optware with opt :) Jan 15 21:35:34 Does anyone know why my nslu2 would give me "Incorrect user name or password" when trying to get at the DISK tab usign the web interface of the unslung firmware? I have access to everything else just not that one tab (and yes i do know my password) Jan 15 21:38:22 only the disk tab? Jan 15 21:38:25 Thats a bit random Jan 15 21:38:27 yeah Jan 15 21:39:06 it worked at first but the only thing ive changed at all was the settings in my smb.conf that wouldnt affect that would it? Jan 15 21:42:02 anything ideas of what i could look for? Jan 15 21:48:37 I havn't fixed it but i think i found a way around it Jan 15 21:49:39 apple time capsule Jan 15 21:49:53 * chrisb just heard about it Jan 15 23:30:25 hi, im on openslug/BE. id used a fixed ip in interfaces but the slug wont use it Jan 15 23:38:06 so my question is where can I set a static ip? Jan 15 23:42:12 Then place the init script next to the others in /etc/init.d and create symlinks in the /etc/rcX.d directory for each runlevel you want cups to run under. <--openslugBE ... what is the default runlevel Jan 15 23:44:21 S52cups Jan 15 23:45:21 will do Jan 15 23:46:35 aha ofcourse it runs dhcp by default *tired now* augh Jan 15 23:47:03 krim__: Openslug? Use "turnup init" to set the fixed ip. Jan 15 23:48:06 no it erases my config.. i found the problem it was obvious Jan 15 23:48:23 i had to change dhcp to static in interfaces Jan 15 23:48:35 too tired now ehehe Jan 15 23:50:08 my third slug though and still doing obvious mistakes Jan 15 23:51:48 mwester Jan 15 23:51:54 what runlevel is openslugbe Jan 15 23:51:59 in normal operation Jan 15 23:52:09 Should be 3 Jan 15 23:52:31 k Jan 15 23:52:32 ty Jan 15 23:52:35 ah rc3.d Jan 15 23:52:45 yeah put it there Jan 16 00:03:28 anyone know if there is a kernel-module-ax8817x package for slugos/BE ?
