Feb 25 21:26:56 hi marceln, i can try Feb 25 21:27:40 I made a upgrade available in version r7512 Feb 25 21:28:05 You removed that upgrade in r7515 because it didn't work. Feb 25 21:28:36 But maybe it's better to solve that prblem because there is again a question about version 2.4.x Feb 25 21:28:56 Do you still know what the error was. Feb 25 21:30:37 le me try again with r7512 Feb 25 21:34:48 marceln: patch: **** Can't change to directory /home/bzhou/slug/optware/nslu2/builds/appWeb-2.4.0 : No such file or directory Feb 25 21:35:16 I will see what i can do. Feb 25 21:35:45 I have build it at home so probably i made a mistake in the svn commit. Feb 25 21:36:38 and if i change the apparent APPWEB_DIR, the patches did not apply Feb 25 21:36:58 yeah, probably a svn commit problem Feb 25 21:38:42 I removed my staging and build dir so i have a clean test situation and solve it!

Feb 26 03:07:28 Enter new password: Feb 26 03:07:30 *** glibc detected *** passwd: free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x0001f948 *** Feb 26 03:07:32 Aborted Feb 26 03:08:13 it happens on my nslu2 and a friends of mine also ... so I'm pretty confident its a bug Feb 26 05:32:01 i see several options for firmware, is one recommend? i would like to setup a webcam. then start to play with 1-wire weather devices Feb 26 05:47:26 oww is in optware so any distro will work Feb 26 05:47:50 you will need to see if there is a driver for your camera Feb 26 05:48:22 and it will probably require libusb (which depending on device may require LE or BE.) Feb 26 05:48:52 a good place to ask this is in #nslu2-general as there are many more users who would know how to set this up. Feb 26 06:26:46 ka6sox-laptop Feb 26 06:50:11 ? Feb 26 06:52:59 can you look into that issue I mentioned above Feb 26 07:19:22 I'm just the infrastructure guy...that would appear to be a problem with slugos. Feb 26 07:19:42 send an email to the ML about what you just put in there. Feb 26 07:19:56 I did Feb 26 07:20:32 okay...I'm sure it will get looked at..which version of slugos are you using? Feb 26 07:20:40 4.8beta Feb 26 07:21:24 hmm...I'm using that and haven't had any problem with taht. Feb 26 07:21:27 LE or BE? Feb 26 07:21:41 be Feb 26 07:22:15 was that also in the email? Feb 26 07:22:17 (version? Feb 26 07:22:20 ) Feb 26 07:22:41 yes Feb 26 07:22:50 do you have BE? Feb 26 07:26:17 both Feb 26 07:26:35 I test a lot of the firmwares (and specifically this one) Feb 26 07:26:59 and didn't experience this bug when I tested it about 6 weeks ago. Feb 26 07:27:22 you sent the bug about 4hrs ago and things get fixed fast but not in 4hrs. Feb 26 07:28:52 okay, here's what I did to get the bug Feb 26 07:29:00 logging in as root Feb 26 07:29:04 adduser test Feb 26 07:29:10 (then setted the pass) Feb 26 07:29:13 su test Feb 26 07:29:15 passwd Feb 26 07:29:18 entered old pass Feb 26 07:29:20 then new pass Feb 26 07:29:23 then got the error Feb 26 07:29:34 you need to put *all* that in the bugreport Feb 26 07:29:56 otherwise people wont' be able to recreate your but Feb 26 07:29:57 happens also if I create the user, then open a new putty (session) and login as test Feb 26 07:30:00 and issue the passwd command Feb 26 07:30:08 can you though? Feb 26 07:30:18 again, put *all* that in your bugreport Feb 26 07:30:28 I mean can you recreate it if you do that Feb 26 07:30:36 I dont' have a 4.8 system right now, all mine are 4.9alpha. Feb 26 07:30:47 I'm testing that currently Feb 26 07:31:02 maybe its been realized and fixed then Feb 26 07:31:15 I also sent this bug report to the mailing list about a week ago Feb 26 07:31:23 but no one ever responded Feb 26 07:31:36 at that time though I thought it was just me Feb 26 07:31:43 until my friend tried it on his Feb 26 07:31:47 and got the same thing Feb 26 07:32:18 okay send a reply to your post of 4hrs ago adding all this. Feb 26 07:32:46 the more informatoin you can provide as to how you generated the bug the better off a developer has of seeing it and fixing it. Feb 26 07:32:54 your original post wasn't sufficient., Feb 26 07:32:56 k Feb 26 07:34:17 but doesn't it appear to have been fixed already? since you don't get it in 4.9 Feb 26 07:35:02 I haven't tried that *exact* scenerio Feb 26 07:35:25 well, like I said in my email Feb 26 07:35:39 I get it every time I use passwd with any user besides root Feb 26 07:36:09 I understand, I will NOT be the one to fix this. I just handle infrastructure. Feb 26 07:36:28 what's infrastructure? Feb 26 07:37:57 the webserver/svn server/trac server/ builders Feb 26 07:38:03 etc Feb 26 07:38:04 ah Feb 26 07:38:49 a bit of research has yielded that the busybox passwd that comes with the stock slugos will NOT do what you want. Feb 26 07:39:14 you have to explicitly install the slugos package for passwd if you want that particular funciton to work. Feb 26 07:39:29 (or the optware one) Feb 26 07:39:40 (thank you dyoung) Feb 26 07:40:08 oh Feb 26 07:40:23 passwd as suid Feb 26 07:40:36 ie solvable by running passwd as suid. Feb 26 07:41:26 well, I already know it works when using root Feb 26 07:42:06 but you are su user Feb 26 07:42:13 and that doesn't run as suid Feb 26 07:42:48 did you ipkg install passwd? Feb 26 07:43:18 no Feb 26 07:43:36 no such package Feb 26 07:44:08 maybe coreutils Feb 26 07:44:14 can't remember...I just work on the servers. Feb 26 07:44:21 thought I installed that before Feb 26 07:44:23 * Nimmit checks Feb 26 07:44:44 appearently not Feb 26 07:45:59 anyways I gotta run... Feb 26 07:46:00 trying to finsh up a migration Feb 26 07:46:27 nope, still getting same error Feb 26 07:46:30 after installing coreutils Feb 26 07:52:59 btw, the wiki has a search problem at the moment **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Feb 26 10:59:56 2008
