Aug 23 12:18:27 <slack---line> hi, is there an equivalent /sbin/unsling script for SlugOS BE?
Aug 23 12:24:27 <lekker> hi anybody here know where transmission 1.33 from nslu keeps its config ?
Aug 23 12:26:06 <slack---line> default location for transmission (on non-nslu2 installs) is in a users ~/.config/transmission folder, try using 'locate transmission | grep conf' (if you've got slocate installed)
Aug 23 12:30:57 <slack---line> I've been trawling through the docs/wiki trying to find details on how to unsling a SluOS install, but can't find any.  Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
Aug 23 12:31:52 <lekker>  I dont have locate
Aug 23 12:31:57 <lekker> running openwrt
Aug 23 12:33:56 <slack---line> do have find available?
Aug 23 12:34:25 <lekker> yrd
Aug 23 12:34:26 <lekker> yes
Aug 23 12:35:44 <slack---line> you could use that to search for the location of the config files
Aug 23 14:02:26 <mwester> slack---line:  turnup
Aug 23 14:03:34 <mwester> generally do a turnup init, followed by a turnup preserve, and then turnup to the disk of your choice, initializing it if necessary: partition disk, mkfs.ext3 the partitions, then turnup disk -i /dev/sda1 (or whatever partition is yourrootfs)
Aug 23 14:13:26 <slack---line> mwester : thanks, thats great, was just drafting a post to nslu2-linux asking for advice :-)
Aug 23 14:18:40 <slack---line> I had unslung to gentoo on the external HD, but arm arch under gentoo doesn't seem to be going anywhere anymore (at least not very fast).
Aug 23 14:31:46 <lekker> slack---line
Aug 23 14:31:54 <lekker> can u help me with that find transmission cfg?
Aug 23 14:39:05 <slack---line> lekker: a very easy (although not the most elegant method) is to ssh to your slug then 'find / -regex transmission | grep conf'
Aug 23 14:39:28 <lekker> hold on i will try
Aug 23 14:40:07 <lekker> busybox returns no help available
Aug 23 14:40:49 <slack---line> lekker: that looks in the tree from root ('/') for the regular expression 'transmission' and all results are piped into grep which filters only those files found with 'conf' in the path
Aug 23 14:41:04 <slack---line> hmm, thats not good, as the options aren't asking for help
Aug 23 14:41:43 <slack---line> do you definately have the find installed?
Aug 23 14:42:19 <lekker> y if i put find it prints out stuff
Aug 23 14:42:31 <lekker> maybe lets try another way
Aug 23 14:42:46 <slack---line> just try 'find | grep transmission | grep conf'
Aug 23 14:42:48 <lekker> http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Optware/Transmission
Aug 23 14:42:55 <lekker> here a guy says its .config somewhere
Aug 23 14:43:04 <lekker> right at top in 1.3x section
Aug 23 14:43:12 <lekker> i got openwrt + ipkg-opt system
Aug 23 14:43:19 <lekker> i installed with ipkg opt
Aug 23 14:43:41 <lekker> sys is on /opt and /home as large partition
Aug 23 14:43:51 <slack---line> so then its likely to be in /root/.config/transmission-daemon as per the wiki article no?
Aug 23 14:44:17 <lekker> yeah bot there is nothing in /etc/config
Aug 23 14:44:21 <lekker> if thats what it means
Aug 23 14:44:37 <lekker> ./opt/lib/ipkg/info/transmission.conffiles
Aug 23 14:44:39 <lekker> is that it ?
Aug 23 14:44:42 <lekker> jeez
Aug 23 14:44:48 <slack---line> no it means the configuration is in the root users home ~/.config file 
Aug 23 14:45:09 <slack---line> try 'cd ~/.config ; ls'
Aug 23 14:45:10 <lekker> empty
Aug 23 14:45:18 <lekker> w8
Aug 23 14:45:33 <lekker> thank you
Aug 23 14:45:34 <lekker> its there
Aug 23 14:45:39 <slack---line> ;-)
Aug 23 14:45:41 <slack---line> np
Aug 23 14:45:41 <lekker> sorry i am a linux shell newb
Aug 23 14:45:52 <slack---line> everyone has to start somewhere :D
Aug 23 14:46:09 <lekker> however theres no settings.json  file
Aug 23 14:46:10 <lekker> there
Aug 23 14:47:17 <lekker> can we find that file somehow ?
Aug 23 14:47:57 <slack---line> You could use 'find / -regex settings\.json' (although it may complain about help files by the sounds of it).
Aug 23 14:49:20 <lekker> y
Aug 23 14:49:30 <lekker> do you use transmission ?
Aug 23 14:50:50 <slack---line> on my main comp, just in the process of switching from gentoo on my nslu2 to OpenSlug
Aug 23 14:51:05 <slack---line> have a look in /opt/share/doc/transmission/README.daemon
Aug 23 14:51:17 <slack---line> to see if theres any info in there as to where config files are
Aug 23 15:20:28 <widrone> ipkg files *pkg* 
Aug 23 15:20:43 <widrone> That will list files installed by the package, and paths. 
Aug 23 15:31:27 <widrone> That may be an easyer way of going about finding files that come with packages really ;)
Aug 23 15:33:17 <slack---line> widrone: definately easier than my suggestions :)
Aug 23 15:38:01 <widrone> I started up the busybox app as root in debian lenny in a shell, that was not smart I think. Dont do that at home, the slug nosedivecrashed really fast. 
Aug 23 15:38:22 <widrone> Everything came back properly again it seems, thats funny. 
Aug 23 15:38:42 <slack---line> lol, alls good then
Aug 23 15:39:27 <lekker> yeah I actually though about that ipkg for a moment
Aug 23 15:39:40 <lekker> but went on pushing for find method :P
Aug 23 15:39:48 <lekker> well the settings.json isnt there
Aug 23 15:39:50 <lekker> :o
Aug 23 15:41:26 <lekker> thx again for the help cu (maybe)
Aug 23 15:42:02 <slack---line> bye lekker, have fun
Aug 23 15:52:08 <Stuidg1> Hi all. I've received a nslu2 from eBay today, and I'm having a bit of trouble seeing it on the network. Would anyone here be able to offer their expertise?
Aug 23 15:57:52 <widrone> mhm, we can try... 
Aug 23 15:58:50 <widrone> Stuidge: Linksys default firmware? You got dhcp in your network setup? 
Aug 23 15:59:42 <Stuidge> I've flashed the latest (v23r63) Linksys firmware on there with upslug2
Aug 23 15:59:57 <Stuidge> and yep, I have DHCP enabled
Aug 23 16:00:08 <Stuidge> my laptop's getting assigned an IP
Aug 23 16:00:24 <widrone> Stuidge: Look in you dhcpd logs and see if the slug has gotten one? 
Aug 23 16:01:00 <widrone> Linksys default software is not something *I* support btw, never even used it but Ill try to stick to known facts =) 
Aug 23 16:01:17 <Stuidge> I'm just using a standard netgear router, and I don't think it logs those things :)
Aug 23 16:01:26 <widrone> If its not set to dhcp it should be up at 192.168.1.77 I think
Aug 23 16:01:34 <widrone> Or 192.168.0.77 
Aug 23 16:01:36 <Stuidge> but it's not showing up in attached devices
Aug 23 16:01:43 <Stuidge> ok, I'll try that
Aug 23 16:01:47 <widrone> So its running static ip 
Aug 23 16:01:48 <slack---line> Stuidge: might not, but go to the configuration pages of the router and look and see what devices are attached
Aug 23 16:02:56 <Stuidge> Nope, the connection's refused on .0.77 my. IPs are 192.168.0.xx
Aug 23 16:03:16 <slack---line> hmm, the /etc/init.d/lighttpd script complains about not being able to find /etc/lighttpd.conf even though its explicitly called from with that config file in the initscript
Aug 23 16:03:21 <Stuidge> the attached devices just say my laptop :S
Aug 23 16:04:18 <slack---line> (and the file does exist)
Aug 23 16:04:59 <widrone> I think 1.77 is the dafult, what are you connecting to it with? port 80? 
Aug 23 16:05:14 <widrone> anyway, Im guessing you are pinging when I think about it. 
Aug 23 16:05:15 <Stuidge> yep, no port, so default 80
Aug 23 16:05:49 <Stuidge> I was actually using the browser, but pinging just gets Dest host unreachable
Aug 23 16:05:55 <widrone> 1.77 nothing there either? You may need to add a proper route depending on your os 
Aug 23 16:06:16 <Stuidge> nope, nothing on either
Aug 23 16:06:27 <Stuidge> I'm running latest ubuntu
Aug 23 16:06:43 <widrone> Aye, its 192.168.1.77 
Aug 23 16:07:01 <widrone> Least according to the official documentation =P 
Aug 23 16:07:33 <Stuidge> Yeah, seen that :D That might be the problem, because I'm on the 192.168.0.xx subnet, rather than 192.168.1.xx
Aug 23 16:07:52 <widrone> add another "virtual" eth0:1 or something 
Aug 23 16:08:27 <Stuidge> oo, how would I go about that?
Aug 23 16:10:00 <widrone> ifconfig eth0:1 inet 192.168.0.2 broadcast 192.168.0.255 netmask 255.255.255.0
Aug 23 16:10:21 <widrone> With the .1. ofc, I just copyed this from a smililar page 
Aug 23 16:10:30 <Stuidge> okey
Aug 23 16:10:34 <Stuidge> was going to say :)
Aug 23 16:10:44 <widrone> that gets you the route setup too 
Aug 23 16:11:11 <widrone> after you are done putting the slug over to dhcp og some other static ip you just: ipconfig eth0:1 down 
Aug 23 16:11:59 <Stuidge> ahh!! success
Aug 23 16:11:59 <widrone> This basicly sets up eth0 with multiple ips and living on different subnets so that should do it. 
Aug 23 16:12:59 <Stuidge> seems strange that the default behaviour of the firmware isn't to be a dhcp client
Aug 23 16:14:16 <widrone> You are talking to a wall or rock here if you got problems with the default linksys behaviour, just saying ;)
Aug 23 16:14:41 <widrone> Unslung is bug for bug compatible with it thu, so I guess you still could say that hehe.
Aug 23 16:15:01 <Stuidge> haha, okey. Well I'm looking to put some kind of linux on it later, so you can still be of use :P
Aug 23 16:15:05 <widrone> But yes, it seems like a strange desicion. 
Aug 23 16:15:32 <widrone> Take a pic...http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/FAQ/FirmwareMatrix
Aug 23 16:16:17 <Stuidge> fantastic. I was looking for something like this earlier, but was searching for "comparison", so didn't fin it
Aug 23 16:16:23 <widrone> Take a minute to read over some of them, most people start out with unslung and reflash within a month it feels like. 
Aug 23 16:17:08 <widrone> It goes only *that far* it seems, and alot of ppl seem to want more flexibility with their linux installs than that can offer ost of the time. 
Aug 23 16:17:38 <widrone> Its got the web interface, thats what "sells the unslung" many people like that. 
Aug 23 16:17:46 <Stuidge> hmm, I was thinking about debian, as I'm familiar with Ubuntu
Aug 23 16:17:51 <Stuidge> I don't mind the command line :)
Aug 23 16:17:54 <widrone> and the package feeds, cant forget them . 
Aug 23 16:18:09 <Stuidge> what's your preference? :)
Aug 23 16:18:44 <widrone> Im plugging slugOS alot even Im a debian kkind of guy. 
Aug 23 16:19:15 <widrone> SLugOS is designed to be run on the slug from the ground up, but then again debian is debian and there is not alot more to it then that. 
Aug 23 16:22:32 <Stuidge> hmm, so SlugOS/LE is semi debian, but with apps compiled specifically for the slug?
Aug 23 16:22:45 <widrone> Im running both, but tend to leave my slugos one with only what I need and leave it running. THe debian one is the one I am evil to. 
Aug 23 16:23:23 <Stuidge> heh Debian/NSLU2?
Aug 23 16:23:56 <widrone> Hm, intermittent stage I think that was. Its still there, but after march 08 there is ABI brekage 
Aug 23 16:24:21 <Stuidge> ABI? 
Aug 23 16:24:37 <widrone> If you want debian there is d-i in a flash ready to upslug2 onto it and start. 
Aug 23 16:24:58 <widrone> the binary interface, lower level then my grips gpt it. ;)
Aug 23 16:25:17 <Stuidge> ahh, ok
Aug 23 16:26:21 <widrone> Accualy when it comes to BE/LE (the endianness) someone else may have more tech knowhow on what to use or not.
Aug 23 16:26:36 <widrone> The matrix of firmwares contain all, living and dead i think. 
Aug 23 16:27:04 <Stuidge> hmm, so the flash ready debian is which version? SlugOS or Debian/NSLU2?
Aug 23 16:27:27 <Stuidge> btw. Thanks for all the help so far. I really appreciate i :)
Aug 23 16:27:51 <widrone> Debian /NSLU2 if that is the one that liks to cyrius. webpages 
Aug 23 16:28:03 <widrone> AH, yes that one. 
Aug 23 16:28:31 <Stuidge> okey, the one where the ABI is broken? :D
Aug 23 16:28:47 <widrone> That is the official supported y debian installer method
Aug 23 16:29:05 <widrone> This http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Debian/HomePage
Aug 23 16:29:37 <widrone> is what you want if you want debian on it, instructions here : http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/install.html
Aug 23 16:30:14 <Stuidge> ahh brilliant. Thanks
Aug 23 16:30:22 <widrone> the etch image should be working again, and there is a beta d-i for lenny is there too 
Aug 23 16:31:03 <widrone> Its pretty bug free ecept partitioning small usb flashdidks without swap running ;)
Aug 23 16:31:26 <Stuidge> okey, I'll remember not to do that :)
Aug 23 16:32:19 <widrone> manual its fine, the auto partman just needs abit more then 32mb to figure it all out on its own. And kills off sshd! (I think that is what happened last time) 
Aug 23 16:32:50 <Stuidge> hah!
Aug 23 16:33:12 <Stuidge> back to an earlier problem...it doesn't want to save any of my changed settings...
Aug 23 16:33:18 <Stuidge> how fustrating
Aug 23 16:54:49 <Stuidge> I'm off now, thanks for your help
Aug 23 16:59:48 <slack---line> hmm, the /etc/init.d/lighttpd script complains about not being able to fin/quit
Aug 23 16:59:53 <slack---line> sorry
Aug 23 21:01:18 <dguido> I'm using the syno-x07 feed and libc doesn't come with libc.a
Aug 23 21:01:22 <dguido> is this normal behavior
Aug 23 21:01:43 <dguido> gcc -static fails without it
Aug 23 23:17:49 <pear> how do i install amule on OpenSlug?
Aug 23 23:57:00 <eno> pear: amule is in optware/slugosbe feed
Aug 23 23:57:44 <eno> see http://nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Optware/Slugosbe for how to setup
Aug 24 02:54:28 <socky> Looking for link to unslung 6.10 -unable to download from http://www.nslu2-linux.org (keeps timing out).  will need to use dl manager.  please help.  thanks
Aug 24 02:58:46 <DogBoy> eh? http://www.slug-firmware.net/u-dls.php
