**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Jan 29 02:59:57 2006 Jan 29 03:28:29 03jbowler * 10kernel/2.6.15/ (94-nas100d-setup.patch 94-nslu2-setup.patch): Jan 29 03:28:29 ixp4xx-kernel: add rw command line option back to nas100d and nslu2 Jan 29 03:28:29 configs, it appears that the JFFS2 partition mounts ro on NSLU2 without Jan 29 03:28:29 it (but the same does not apply on Loft). Jan 29 09:45:53 OpenSlug or Unslung? and Memory stick or Multi Partitioned hd (my maxtor comes with me on the plane)? Jan 29 09:54:08 astroid, unslung if you want to use the slug more or less as is, openslug if you are a unix hacker or want non-unslung functionality Jan 29 09:54:18 you could go for both stick and hd if you desire Jan 29 09:56:26 I've got my wrt set up with openwrt and I'd like to use the slug as a streaming audio, file, print, email, httpd server. Lot's of functionality, fairly low load. Jan 29 09:57:23 don't know about openwrt, I do streaming using UPnP; no print or email services here. for http I run apache for file server both samba and nfs Jan 29 09:57:38 if you are proficient in unix you probably want to go for openslug Jan 29 09:57:54 or debian :) Jan 29 09:59:44 yes, or debian, but debian is still a little bit rough at the edges (at least when I last looked, eg wrt leds and .recovery) Jan 29 10:00:03 .recovery is fixed by installing nslu2-utils Jan 29 10:00:23 the leds/beeper is probably not too far away Jan 29 10:01:20 ok nslu2-utils were not there yet and leds/beeper are not too difficult anyway Jan 29 10:02:22 At some point i got the impression debian would allow me to boot directly from an image on hd. when I discovered that that was not the case and that LE did not solve my audio problems, I moved back to openslug .... Jan 29 10:03:31 just played with apex, (running it from RAM), but that does not work as one cannot telnet into apex (or at least i did not find a way to do this) Jan 29 10:03:48 (would like to discuss this with beewoolie but haven't seen him this weekend) Jan 29 10:04:05 (and timezonewise we're probably far apart) Jan 29 10:07:28 hey, effem-slug is back up Jan 29 10:31:19 <[g2]> eFfeM so you want to boot directly to the hd with your slug Jan 29 10:33:02 [g2], YESSSSSSS Jan 29 10:33:19 I'm kinda tired of flashing Jan 29 10:33:29 <[g2]> hey Jan 29 10:33:41 actually I would already be happy if I could boot using tftp from my dev system Jan 29 10:35:18 (and I would like to have audio running, if I could do both that would make me one happy person .... Jan 29 10:35:53 <[g2]> eFfeM did you see my PM ? Jan 29 10:36:14 nope Jan 29 10:36:32 at least not if you have sent it last few minutes Jan 29 10:36:40 did you send to me or eFfeM-log ? Jan 29 10:36:49 let's check the bot Jan 29 10:36:55 <[g2]> nope Jan 29 11:24:56 hello Jan 29 11:25:36 i need help setting up a cross-compile env, if anyone has time Jan 29 12:58:45 got the imic working. (just in case anyone is going to google the irc logs, the way I did...) Jan 29 12:59:11 I think my problem was that I shot myself by grabbing too many ipkg's so had both oss and alsa Jan 29 12:59:21 I found that I got it working with alsa Jan 29 12:59:54 <[g2]> snowbike does it work reliably ? Jan 29 13:00:01 I had to ipkg install soundcore Jan 29 13:00:11 <[g2]> that's ok Jan 29 13:00:26 [g2]: we'll see... I just got it working ~12 hours ago.. so if you consider 12 hours reliable... Jan 29 13:00:40 I'll start testing next Jan 29 13:00:59 <[g2]> snowbike have you rebooted at all ? Jan 29 13:01:11 I had installed the audio as I found on the wiki, but in the end I had to "rmmod audio" Jan 29 13:01:20 and then "modprobe snd_usb_audio" Jan 29 13:01:40 It had been already loaded when audio mod was also loaded, and /proc/asound/devices only showed the timer Jan 29 13:02:00 after unloading audio and reloading then /proc/asound/devices showed Jan 29 13:02:15 16: [0- 0]: digital audio playback Jan 29 13:02:16 24: [0- 0]: digital audio capture Jan 29 13:02:16 0: [0- 0]: ctl Jan 29 13:02:19 as well as timer. Jan 29 13:02:45 [g2]: I haven't rebooted yet.. I bet that when I do, I'll have to resort modules by hand. I'll try in a few minutes Jan 29 13:02:49 <[g2]> which kernel are you running ? Jan 29 13:02:52 I'm still enjoying the fact that it is working now! Jan 29 13:03:02 Linux bat 2.6.12.2 #1 Tue Sep 27 20:21:18 CDT 2005 armv5teb unknown Jan 29 13:03:08 <[g2]> snowbike as you should enjoy! Jan 29 13:03:10 openslug 2.7 beta default, I'm pretty sure.. Jan 29 13:03:27 <[g2]> snowbike I'd like to run it on my Loft Jan 29 13:03:54 I'll definitely be posting this to the wiki if it is working. My goal is similar to the froglogger that geojeff posted to the slug wiki.. Jan 29 13:04:21 <[g2]> what your going to record frogs too! ? :) Jan 29 13:04:42 no--bats! (I have a heterodyning system to bring the ultrasound down to soundcard range!) Jan 29 13:05:04 <[g2]> cool Jan 29 13:06:04 if it works--yep! Plus then it would feed over to other bioacoustics apps really easily. (we also have a hydrophone for whale recordings. I'd love to do that and hook up the USB-FM transmitter so we can monitoring whale activity while driving around town!) Do you know if anyone has gotten the USB-FM transmitter working on the slug? Jan 29 13:06:05 <[g2]> I've got a system I'm selling you may be interested in Jan 29 13:06:12 I only saw a "that'd be cool" Jan 29 13:06:15 What is it? Jan 29 13:06:47 <[g2]> it's an upscale slug that runs industrial temp and POE with a 9-48V power range Jan 29 13:07:25 cool! How cold is industrial temps? Jan 29 13:07:52 and do you have a web page? If I can get the imic working well (and then my perl code.. next step..) I'll probably be buying ~10 more of these. Jan 29 13:07:54 <[g2]> and has stuff like a CF slot, so you could have it all in one box running POE and a 6G microdrive feed from solar a couple hundred feet away Jan 29 13:08:14 <[g2]> it's also go a 533 Mhz processor and 64M Jan 29 13:08:30 <[g2]> plus it's quite expandable and runs debian LE Jan 29 13:08:35 <[g2]> out of the box Jan 29 13:08:36 out at the mouth of the cave--yep. Wow! Jan 29 13:09:08 <[g2]> you could probably have some power relays and make it go even further Jan 29 13:09:08 sounds great.. I assume it still has no floating point? That's the biggest hurdle with any signal processing I'd try to do on the box Jan 29 13:09:25 Do you have a web page? Jan 29 13:09:38 <[g2]> are you aware of the EP93xx Jan 29 13:09:53 <[g2]> my web page is http://www.giantshoulderinc.com Jan 29 13:10:11 <[g2]> the page is out-of-date and going to get update in the next few days Jan 29 13:10:31 <[g2]> see http://www.giantshoulderinc.com/hw-4533 Jan 29 13:10:31 not off the top of my head.. I've got a collaborator who is more into the computer/hardware development. I'm a bit more of the software/network/digitizer-guy. Jan 29 13:10:46 <[g2]> and see http://www.giantshoulderinc.com/ab3/case.jpg Jan 29 13:11:06 <[g2]> The EP93xx is a 200Mhz ARM, but it's got hw FP on board Jan 29 13:11:24 <[g2]> many of the boards come with an AC97 codec Jan 29 13:13:10 I like the case! Jan 29 13:13:22 <[g2]> THX Jan 29 13:13:41 <[g2]> That's just 4 x 7 x 1.5 inches high Jan 29 13:18:49 <[g2]> I've been on the fence about the imic, but now next time I"m out I'll have to pick one up. Jan 29 13:30:12 ok, rebooted, modprobe soundcore; modprobe snd_usb_audio; cat /dev/dsp > test.wav ; cat test.wav > /dev/dsp shows that it is working after reboot Jan 29 13:31:21 the other change I made was "mv /dev/dsp /dev/dsp0 ; ln -s /dev/dsp1 /dev/dsp" because the imic wants to be /dev/dsp1, and I'm really trying to save that valuable "1" key :) Jan 29 13:32:13 woohoo! now for more testing/configuring. Jan 29 13:33:02 <[g2]> snowbike congrats! Jan 29 13:33:15 <[g2]> I'll have to get one tomorrow and try it out Jan 29 13:34:00 thx, we'll be in touch for sure. Jan 29 13:34:10 <[g2]> cheers and congrats Jan 29 13:54:35 help... I've lost my drive. I've been through the how-to's on the wiki but I have come to the end of them. Jan 29 13:55:00 I have a 2.5" USB drive in a caddy which has been working happily for over a year. Jan 29 13:55:22 a couple of days ago my slug crashed and the drive was no longer recognised on booting. Jan 29 13:56:06 which means, automounted ? Jan 29 13:56:08 I took the drive off and attached it to my PC and ran e2fsck on them and they completed OK (first one had a little correction - but nothing seemed significant) Jan 29 13:56:50 when attach it to my slug (in either port1 or port2) and then telnet in, the drive is invisible. Jan 29 13:57:01 when I do a df - nothing is recognised Jan 29 13:57:16 I can't mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt/tmpmnt - it just fails Jan 29 13:57:38 "No such device or address" Jan 29 13:57:52 not really sure where to go from here... Jan 29 13:57:53 copperbeech, fdisk -l /dev/sd[a|b] gives what response ? Jan 29 13:58:27 it gives nothing at all. Jan 29 13:59:16 anything in /var/log/messages (or where ever your system logger logs it) Jan 29 13:59:22 when you plug in the disk?

Jan 29 14:08:49 i missed something, that isn't your enclosure Jan 29 14:09:36 no? What is it? Jan 29 14:09:46 http://pastebin.com/529304 Jan 29 14:10:23 OK - I see the lines in yours are more specific... Jan 29 14:10:24 line 33, that is my enclosure Jan 29 14:10:37 You think it sounds like a problem with the enclosure? Jan 29 14:11:07 I'm wondering about the load on my slug. I'm running openslug and have "nothing" going on. top shows a load average of 1.00, 0.99, 0.91 and the highest process is top with .5% of the CPU.. Jan 29 14:11:22 What gives? Jan 29 14:11:41 caplink811_log: it's like the driver hasn;t been located. Jan 29 14:12:06 wonder if it's more liekly to be a software problem or a hardware problem? Jan 29 14:13:54 http://pastebin.com/529312 (line 33) Jan 29 14:15:39 snowbike, load is typically 1.0 (i'sure, there is a faq about that, but i didn't find that right now) Jan 29 14:15:57 s/i'sure/i'm sure/g Jan 29 14:15:58 caplink811_log meant: snowbike, load is typically 1.0 (i'm sure, there is a faq about that, but i didn't find that right now) Jan 29 14:16:23 caplink811_log: thanks. I'll search for it. I'd bet it is a FAQ! Jan 29 14:18:18 it seems, that it assume, that it is class storage, but found no driver for that Jan 29 14:19:29 yeah - think it might be broken firmware? Jan 29 14:22:11 Think it would be worth reflashing the slug? Jan 29 14:23:43 snowbike: that's the IXP modules - they always run at load of 1 Jan 29 14:23:51 (even when doing nothing) Jan 29 14:24:02 thx. rwhitby-away Jan 29 14:24:13 what version of openslug? Jan 29 14:24:21 (cause I think it is fixed on HEAD) Jan 29 14:24:27 2.7 beta Jan 29 14:26:53 copperbeech, maybe worth to give it a try, your drive is recognised properly on a linux box Jan 29 14:27:19 It has also been properly recognised on my slug for over a year... Jan 29 14:28:26 but now it isn't recognised Jan 29 14:29:42 yeah - my slug crashed (kids turned off the power perhaps?) and it hasn't been able to recognise it since - although I have tested the drive on my linux PC Jan 29 14:43:08 snowbike, I was reading the log and I saw you had the imic working. Just to be sure: did you actually hear audio, or did you only cat to the device Jan 29 14:43:43 reason for asking is that my sound card (not an imic) will allow to play a file and control the value, but does not produce sound Jan 29 14:43:52 copperbeech, did you reflash? any progrss? Jan 29 14:44:00 all things in sys seems it plays, but no actual sound Jan 29 14:44:10 s/progrss/progress/g Jan 29 14:44:11 caplink811_log meant: copperbeech, did you reflash? any progress? Jan 29 14:44:21 and koen in #openslug also told me that he did not get sound from his imic Jan 29 14:49:52 eFfeM: the headphones plugged into the imic produces sound (that I recorded using the imic) Jan 29 14:50:38 levels are a bit outta whack, but I'm recording a signal from a headphone jack outta my speakers and haven't even touched the mixer. Jan 29 15:05:24 caplink881: just going into upgrade mode now... Jan 29 15:07:01 snowbike, that's good. might bother you about this on a later time (bedtime here) Jan 29 15:07:35 I'll hang around in here, so talk w/ you later.. Jan 29 15:07:58 great, cu Jan 29 15:09:10 btw i'm a little bit puzzled with your /dev/dsp1 thing, could it be the imic has headphones and line out as two different devices ? Jan 29 15:09:49 I'm not sure what is going on--mic in and phones out both use /dev/dsp1 Jan 29 15:10:09 I think the Linux drivers assume an onboard soundcard will be /dev/dsp0 and go for /dev/dsp1.. Jan 29 15:10:23 I found some info about this online just googling for Linux/imic Jan 29 15:10:43 normally this is the case for a pc Jan 29 15:10:51 have you created /dev/dsp0 manually? Jan 29 15:11:12 my system automaically creates /dev/dsp major 14 minor 3 Jan 29 15:11:43 I thought I might have to do the mknod, but ended up not having to do that. Jan 29 15:12:22 hmm. don't be too confused, because I am too. I did the ln'ing, and then at the reboot that seems to have all disappeared! Jan 29 15:12:50 now /dev/dsp is 14,3 Jan 29 15:13:20 actually my card ran once (with 2.6.12 or 2.6.14), next time it didn't Jan 29 15:13:20 and I've been doing cat /dev/dsp > test.wav and cat test.wav > /dev/dsp repeatedly and it is working with the headset plugged into the imic Jan 29 15:13:48 can you do file test.wav ? Jan 29 15:13:53 I've rebooted once. I'll try several times over the next week, I'm sure. I'm using 2.6.12 Jan 29 15:14:31 -sh: file: not found... :) Just a sec. I tried it on osx before and got what looked like an endian issue, but not sure. I'll scp it over and let you know. Jan 29 15:14:42 file says the wav files are RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, stereo 44100 Hz Jan 29 15:14:58 just want to be sure that this is not a 44k1 <-> 48k issue Jan 29 15:15:23 on osx I get test.wav: 8086 relocatable (Microsoft) Jan 29 15:15:37 doesn't tell me much--mean anything to you? and endian thing? Jan 29 15:16:10 I did have a problem reading it into some sound analysis software that I was trying to use (Raven), so I'm going to be exploring just what the heck file it is.. I'll let you know what I find. Jan 29 15:16:24 hm, your wav is not really recognized as a wav by osx Jan 29 15:17:04 are you by any chance running a web or ftp server where you can put this test.wav file? Jan 29 15:17:09 right.. so it is something funky. but I don't know if it ending, sample rate, encoding (is it really an au) Jan 29 15:17:43 yeah, just a sec.. Jan 29 15:18:02 http://uashome.alaska.edu/~jfmjh/test.wav Jan 29 15:18:14 checking the link and quicktime gives me a big question mark on it. Something funky. Jan 29 15:21:15 caplink811: driver still failed to load after a reflash... Jan 29 15:21:29 wonder if the caddy is damaged? Jan 29 15:21:40 hm, no more ideas at all.. Jan 29 15:21:44 the caddy works fine with my PC... Jan 29 15:22:07 snowbike, got the wav, it is also identified as an 8086 relocatable here Jan 29 15:22:08 I'm really hoping that my NSLU2 has not had some HW failure which would cause this :-( Jan 29 15:22:09 what is the slug/arm/openslug? big or little endian? Jan 29 15:22:27 looking into the file and it looks like it is just data (and no wav header) Jan 29 15:22:34 openslug is BE Jan 29 15:22:35 at least the data isn't lost Jan 29 15:22:41 I'm trying to open up the file in matlab to look at header, etc.. Jan 29 15:23:03 yeah, od looked like just numbers (which is good for what I want). Jan 29 15:23:13 auread and wavread obviously don't work... Jan 29 15:23:18 the file I have is 32768 bytes and starts as: Jan 29 15:23:19 0000000 8080 8080 8080 7373 7473 7473 7574 7675 Jan 29 15:23:19 0000020 7676 7676 7777 7877 7877 7978 7978 7979 Jan 29 15:23:58 on osx it looks like: 0000000 100200 100200 100200 071563 071564 071564 072165 072566 Jan 29 15:24:01 0000020 073166 073166 073567 073570 073570 074171 074171 074571 Jan 29 15:24:16 I did od -x yours is octal Jan 29 15:24:26 copperbeech, no, i don't think so, but myself hadn't explanation about that behavior Jan 29 15:24:29 sorry.. forgot. Jan 29 15:24:40 this is my octal Jan 29 15:24:40 0000000 100200 100200 100200 071563 072163 072163 072564 073165 Jan 29 15:24:40 0000020 073166 073166 073567 074167 074167 074570 074570 074571 Jan 29 15:24:47 exactly the same Jan 29 15:25:12 caplink811: cheers, thanks for your ideas... Jan 29 15:25:20 no problem Jan 29 15:25:47 snowbike, a real wav file has a header like this (using od -cx) Jan 29 15:25:47 0000000 R I F F 204 # 344 001 W A V E f m t Jan 29 15:25:48 5249 4646 8423 e401 5741 5645 666d 7420 Jan 29 15:25:48 0000020 020 \0 \0 \0 001 \0 002 \0 D 254 \0 \0 020 261 002 \0 Jan 29 15:25:48 1000 0000 0100 0200 44ac 0000 10b1 0200 Jan 29 15:25:48 0000040 004 \0 020 \0 d a t a ` # 344 001 \0 \0 \0 \0 Jan 29 15:25:50 0400 1000 6461 7461 6023 e401 0000 0000 Jan 29 15:26:04 note the RIFF and the WAVEfnt and the data text Jan 29 15:26:39 now really calling it a day, feel free to leave a msg, my log bot will pick it up Jan 29 15:27:24 copperbeech_: have you tried plugging any other USB devices into the slug to see if they appear in /proc/bus/usb/devices - that would confirm if the USB hardware is working. Also is the drive bus powered? Jan 29 15:28:00 AdamBaker, nice idea, but he's gone Jan 29 15:29:22 Yes I spotted that just after I pressed enter Jan 29 15:31:47 eFfeM-log: I just ipkg installed alsa-utils-aplay Jan 29 15:32:12 eFfeM-log: but arecord -l gives me Jan 29 15:32:14 arecord: device_list:200: no soundcards found... Jan 29 15:32:40 16: [0- 0]: digital audio playback Jan 29 15:32:41 24: [0- 0]: digital audio capture Jan 29 15:32:41 0: [0- 0]: ctl Jan 29 15:32:41 33: : timer Jan 29 17:39:32 i need help getting my usb ethernet adapter working, i installed the ipkg for it, then used insmod, but it doesnt show up if i ifconfig, and the lights are still off on the adapter Jan 29 17:39:48 what am i missing? Jan 29 17:39:58 seems like that should be it Jan 29 17:40:11 anything in dmesg? Jan 29 17:40:20 i didnt reboot Jan 29 17:40:46 no, but it should show up in dmesg anyway Jan 29 17:41:09 oh, ill give a look Jan 29 17:42:46 hmm good call Jan 29 17:42:53 its seeing it Jan 29 17:43:02 saw my plug and unplug it Jan 29 17:43:09 why do i get no interface then? Jan 29 17:43:41 ifconfig -a? Jan 29 17:45:00 im rebooting, then ill just try and bring it up by hand Jan 29 17:46:46 its there, ill try and get it an ip address now Jan 29 17:50:09 well... werid, it works.. and i can ping it from another computer, but non of the lights are on Jan 29 17:52:15 haha this is weird, its not really working, the internal adapter is now responding to both ip addresses Jan 29 17:52:28 and the usb adapter is doing nohitng Jan 29 17:56:22 did you insmod both usbnet and the module for the hardware? Jan 29 17:57:16 no i did not know usbnet was needed, or not already there Jan 29 17:57:44 im rebooting now, i will check to see if usbnet is being used Jan 29 17:58:05 btw im using openslug 2.7 Jan 29 18:00:21 nope no usbnet Jan 29 18:05:15 modprobe it Jan 29 18:05:24 you may need to ipk install it first Jan 29 18:07:31 yeah it didnt modprobe, so in installed it and insmod it Jan 29 18:08:19 still the same, dmesg sees me plug and unplug the usb adapter, but no lights work, and all its traffic keeps going ove eth0 Jan 29 18:08:46 are both network adapters on the same subnet? Jan 29 18:09:10 yes Jan 29 18:10:09 that's why you're getting a ping reply even though the usb nic isn't working Jan 29 18:11:22 i can ssh over the usb adapters ip also, the internal eth0 is handling all trafic for both Jan 29 18:11:31 yes Jan 29 18:11:38 since they're on the same subnet Jan 29 18:12:13 but again, dmesg shows that the usb adapter is plugged in, and ifconfig shows an adapter wtih the same MAC address as the usb adapter is created Jan 29 18:16:44 any ideas? Jan 29 18:25:52 nope Jan 29 18:27:19 just saw some people in the tivo community have my linksys usb100tx adapter working just fine without the lights wokring, so maybe all is well Jan 29 18:27:26 ill finish setting it up Jan 29 18:28:13 maybe that should be added to the wiki if indeed it does work with no lights, as that will have cost me maybe 2 hours Jan 29 18:28:57 antisamw: well, it's a wiki, so if you think it should be added, then just add it. Jan 29 18:41:38 thats what i was saying, sorry i was thinking out loud Jan 29 18:42:06 now the imic isn't working.. ug.. we'll see..
