Nov 09 14:35:37 <Lunar_Lamp> Is it possible to get the NSLU2 to "wake on lan"?
Nov 09 14:38:33 <DrJ> Lunar_Lamp: afaik, no
Nov 09 14:39:18 <Lunar_Lamp> Pity
Nov 09 14:39:39 <Lunar_Lamp> Thanks though
Nov 09 14:40:19 <mwester> You do that sort of thing if you have some external equipment, and some mods to the NSLU2.  But nothing built-in.
Nov 09 15:47:04 <Lunar_Lamp> mwester: ok, thanks
Nov 09 15:47:10 <Lunar_Lamp> Is it a hard/exspensive mod?
Nov 09 15:47:25 <Lunar_Lamp> (or did you not have anything specific in mind)
Nov 09 15:58:09 <mwester_> Lunar_Lamp:  Yes, it's expensive.  The solutions some have used involve an external box that you can telnet into that controls the power to a set of outlets, into which you plug your NLSU2 -- which you modify per the wiki to automatically power up when plugged in.
Nov 09 15:58:25 <mwester_> Not practical unless you have a lot of these devices to manage remotely.
Nov 09 15:59:42 <Lunar_Lamp> Yeah, it'd be fine if you had an APC or something so you could just power things up, but not really viable for a little slug!
Nov 10 01:24:38 <arthur92710> Hi,
Nov 10 01:25:31 <arthur92710> ok so I used another usb ide adapter today, and now I dont get any errors dmesg, but it does not mount
Nov 10 01:26:14 <arthur92710> it says <5>scsi 4:0:0:0: Direct-Access     USB TO I DE/SATA Device   0041 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0
Nov 10 01:26:25 <arthur92710> <5>sd 4:0:0:0: Attached scsi disk sdb
Nov 10 01:26:36 <arthur92710> <7>usb-storage: device scan complete
Nov 10 01:28:33 <arthur92710> it says disk sdb, but if I try to fdisk /dev/sdb it says Unable to read /dev/sdb
Nov 10 01:30:03 <DogBoy> maybe you could take a break from your slug adventures and learn to use linux
Nov 10 01:30:18 <DogBoy> install it on your desktop
Nov 10 01:30:34 <arthur92710> ugh..
Nov 10 01:30:42 <arthur92710> can I play games?
Nov 10 01:39:50 <arthur92710> well that does not really matter
Nov 10 01:40:00 <arthur92710> I can just duel boot
Nov 10 01:40:20 <DogBoy> I thought so too
Nov 10 01:40:55 <DogBoy> but I found myself booting back into windows to do stuff the windows way whenever I encountered the least resistance
Nov 10 01:43:13 <arthur92710> well I mostly do my gaming 1 hour a day on my desktop, homework and web is done on my laptop, so I could put linux on my laptop
Nov 10 01:43:51 <arthur92710> I have used Knoppix, but how does this help my slug adventures?
