Mar 17 11:01:28 <bun-bun> hi folks
Mar 17 13:14:58 <chrisb> do people use ctorrent to download torrents on nslu2?
Mar 17 13:15:09 <chrisb> that's what's available in ipkg
Mar 17 13:15:21 <chrisb> i am not understanding the docs, though
Mar 17 13:15:26 <chrisb> slugos
Mar 17 13:17:06 <joppu_> isn't rTorrent?
Mar 17 13:33:39 <mwester> rtorrent
Mar 17 13:35:20 <chrisb> i'll check to see if rtorrent is available...
Mar 17 13:35:55 <mwester> :) Since I just installed it last night, I'd be surprised if it went away so soon.  :-D
Mar 17 13:36:28 <chrisb> rtorrent seems available in optware
Mar 17 13:36:42 <chrisb> is that a better client than ctorrent?
Mar 17 13:37:12 * chrisb realizes that it is p2p, but anyway...
Mar 17 13:39:38 <mwester> what slugos version are you at?  rtorrent is in the feeds for 4.8 and 5.3, at least.
Mar 17 13:40:19 <mwester> And it's not a matter of the "better client", with only 32 MB of memory, it's really a matter of what will run on it.
Mar 17 13:41:18 <chrisb> 4.8beta
Mar 17 13:46:16 <mwester> ipkg install rtorrent
Mar 17 14:06:09 <chrisb> not there
Mar 17 14:06:21 <chrisb> only in optware for me
Mar 17 14:14:17 <joppu_> But hey as I asked previusly, if I install a server do I need to run it in a screen?
Mar 17 14:43:12 <mwester> no, no need to run it in screen.  I don't
Mar 17 14:57:35 <chrisb> joppu_: what kind of server?
Mar 17 16:35:19 <chrisb> how does swap get mounted in /dev/.static/dev ?  There is not an entry in /etc/fstab in slugos
Mar 17 16:36:48 <mwester> checkroot script at boot ttime.
Mar 17 16:42:46 <chrisb> mwester: ah, thanks
Mar 17 19:43:44 <flammmm> .
Mar 17 21:04:28 * http is away: Gone away for now
Mar 17 22:18:58 <karl> hi all ! i have a problem with oom killing processes. it seems my debian slug is not using enough of the swap.
Mar 17 22:24:09 <DogBoy> with oom?
Mar 17 22:29:58 <karl> well, oom-killer is killing processes although there is still plenty of swap space free
Mar 17 23:54:48 * nel is back.
Mar 18 00:12:41 <chrisb> ?oom-killer?
Mar 18 00:31:47 <wally4678> hi, anyone know how to get nfs shares working on vista?
Mar 18 00:32:05 <wally4678> i plan to use them eventually on th nslu2
Mar 18 00:32:30 <Reedy> its in the wiki :)
Mar 18 00:32:38 <Reedy> different ways for a few different versions
Mar 18 00:33:11 <wally4678> i saw that mate... i have a specific q tho... ive googled for hours but for some reason i dont have the nfs sharing tab in vista
Mar 18 00:33:19 <Reedy> which version?
Mar 18 00:33:25 <wally4678> ultimate
Mar 18 00:33:28 <Reedy> right
Mar 18 00:33:41 <Reedy> you need to add the component
Mar 18 00:33:43 <wally4678> ive installed the nfs sevices + sfu download...
Mar 18 00:33:52 <wally4678> yeah done that..
Mar 18 00:33:58 <Reedy> oh
Mar 18 00:33:59 <wally4678> nfs services and sfu
Mar 18 00:34:03 <Reedy> you're wanting to share AS nfs on vista?
Mar 18 00:34:33 <wally4678> im new to nfs... im trying to get familiar with it to use with my wdtv and nslu2
Mar 18 00:34:46 <wally4678> yeah to start with
Mar 18 00:34:50 <Reedy> afaik its only to allow vista to connect to NFS shares
Mar 18 00:34:53 <Reedy> not vice versa
Mar 18 00:35:46 <wally4678> according to google/avsforum\nslu2 wiki you can mount a nfs share in vista - i should have a nfs sharing tab alongside my normal samba tab
Mar 18 00:36:08 <Reedy> those are different things
Mar 18 00:36:20 <Reedy> a sharing tab would be to create a share of type nfs
Mar 18 00:36:33 <Reedy> theres nothing special to mount, still do it via map network drive
Mar 18 00:36:59 <Reedy> (i dont have a nfs sharing tab)
Mar 18 00:37:08 <wally4678> not using the "mount" command in cmd?
Mar 18 00:37:19 <Reedy> dunno.. should owrk
Mar 18 00:37:28 <wally4678> can i give you an example?
Mar 18 00:37:43 <wally4678> say i have a folder c:\share 
Mar 18 00:37:49 <Reedy> or control panel, admin tools
Mar 18 00:37:50 <Reedy> Services for Network File System (NFS)
Mar 18 00:38:08 <Reedy> "Mount NFS shares.  You can access NFS shares by either mapping them to drive letters or using Universal Naming Convention (UNC) paths."
Mar 18 00:38:47 <wally4678> i have the client.... it says the service is started
Mar 18 00:39:00 <wally4678> i cant see "mount nfs shares"
Mar 18 00:39:23 <Reedy> should be there if you select client for nfs
Mar 18 00:40:11 <wally4678> i just get the help page which list the details of mounting nfs shares by using the cmd prompt
Mar 18 00:40:36 <Reedy> lol
Mar 18 00:41:14 <Reedy> you can mount a nfs share in windows the same as a samba/windows file shares
Mar 18 00:41:22 <wally4678> mmm noticed on some of the googled pages that mount nfs and universal naming convention was options
Mar 18 00:41:50 <wally4678> so... say i want to mount c:\share for arguments sake? 
Mar 18 00:42:10 <Reedy> how are you going to mount c:\share?
Mar 18 00:42:12 <Reedy> that'd be local
Mar 18 00:42:58 <wally4678> so i can only mount remote? not share "c:\share" for sharing with other computers?
Mar 18 00:43:10 <Reedy> nope, its not a nfs server
Mar 18 00:43:13 <Reedy> its an nfs client
Mar 18 00:43:20 <Reedy> (SFU may have some server stuff, but i dont know)
Mar 18 00:44:00 <wally4678> yeah i downloaded a server (hanewin nfs server) fairly straighforward to set export list but the client on this pc can find the share 
Mar 18 00:44:07 <wally4678> cant find
Mar 18 00:44:31 <Reedy> \\localhost\sharename?
Mar 18 00:45:00 <wally4678> yeah 
Mar 18 00:45:18 <Reedy> god knows why you'd really want to do that thoug
Mar 18 00:45:30 <wally4678> you set the export list "c:\ftp -readonly 192.168.0.4
Mar 18 00:45:47 <wally4678> where c:\ftp is share folder and 192.168.0.4
Mar 18 00:45:51 <wally4678> is the client ip
Mar 18 00:45:59 <Reedy> sound about right
Mar 18 00:46:02 <wally4678> have you heard of the wdtv?
Mar 18 00:46:29 <Reedy> nope
Mar 18 00:47:11 <wally4678> its a media tank without network support (like popcorn hour) there is a modified firmware which can use a usb-ethernet adaptor to share remotely... ie via my unslung nslu2
Mar 18 00:48:01 <wally4678> apparently nfs is much quicker doing this... so im f**cking about trying to get my head round this shit
Mar 18 00:49:08 <wally4678> it mentions about administrator rights on the services for nfs... wonder if i dont have the rights to access the mounts section (my account is adminstrator tho)
Mar 18 00:49:41 <Reedy> not a clue really
Mar 18 00:49:55 <Reedy> sorry
Mar 18 00:50:04 <wally4678> thanks for your help all the same
Mar 18 00:50:55 <Reedy> gah, 10 to 1 in the morning, im hungry and tired.. great combination
Mar 18 00:51:48 <wally4678> yeah im off to bed too marra
Mar 18 01:35:28 * nel is away: Gone away for now
Mar 18 01:35:59 * nel is back.
