**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Feb 05 02:59:57 2011 Feb 05 12:26:51 hello everybody! how can I reset my guruplug server plus to default settings? Feb 05 12:27:34 what default settings? Feb 05 12:32:06 I've tried to change network settings - for static address on eth0. after reboot I cannot see device in network. So I would like to know how can I reset device to default network settings. Feb 05 12:36:49 oh, that way Feb 05 12:36:54 do you have the jtag interface? Feb 05 12:37:09 no Feb 05 12:37:22 lol Feb 05 12:38:09 is it unreal to make this without jtag? Feb 05 12:39:22 well you have no way to access your guruplug Feb 05 12:39:23 so... Feb 05 12:39:26 :| Feb 05 12:39:48 yeah, the fact that there's no integrated interface like in the sheevaplug makes the guruplug a bit less cool Feb 05 12:40:02 hmm, how is your uboot configured? Feb 05 12:40:11 does it try to boot from sd first? Feb 05 12:44:11 excuse me. I did not question before. english is not my native language. I have JTAG inteface but I have no JTAG module. Feb 05 13:07:10 I have got connect to my device. =) My settings is worked - eth1 got addres by dhcp but I can to connect to it only after reboot it with two net cables in slots. Thank you for attention! I think about JTAG module shipping =) Feb 05 16:47:38 any of you use displaylink? Feb 05 17:54:11 Hi Feb 05 17:54:17 hoi Feb 05 17:54:34 i'm looking into buying a plugcomputer Feb 05 17:54:47 mainly because my atom based server is bulky Feb 05 17:55:12 ok Feb 05 17:55:29 http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/p-41-dreamplug-devkit.aspx Feb 05 17:55:39 is the latest revision of plug from globalscale Feb 05 17:55:42 obviously i'm not going for the guruplug because of its heat problems, that leaves me with pogoplug, sheevaplug and tonidoplug Feb 05 17:55:58 dreamplug is new, has all the guruplug's features but without the issues Feb 05 17:56:04 yes, but the euro version isnt released yet Feb 05 17:56:19 newit says they should have those by the end of march iirc Feb 05 17:56:42 and you can just get an adaptor Feb 05 17:56:47 for us -> eur Feb 05 17:57:05 the powersupply is the same for the us and eu versions, it's just the prongs that are different Feb 05 17:57:06 i mainly want a plugcomputer for downloading torrents, nzb (newsgroups) and rapidshare/megaupload Feb 05 17:57:23 ah, i see Feb 05 17:58:13 also, if any of these plugs would allow some sort of remote desktop (teamviewer would work fine too) it would be great Feb 05 17:58:30 remote desktop, so you can see the plug? Feb 05 17:58:43 i wouldn't run a display on a plug, just use ssh to admin it Feb 05 17:58:45 no, so i would see an actual UI Feb 05 17:58:53 ah Feb 05 17:59:10 it has no graphics unit; it's meant to be all commandline Feb 05 17:59:39 for torrents i would use wtorrent (has a nice web ui), but that leaves me with nzb and rapidshare/megaupload Feb 05 17:59:44 any solutions for that? Feb 05 18:00:12 there are plenty of commandline nzb clients, my friend got one the other day Feb 05 18:00:16 let me see if i can get the name Feb 05 18:00:27 hmm Feb 05 18:00:35 as for rapidshare, idk if you'd be able to do that Feb 05 18:00:37 any of them with a web ui? Feb 05 18:00:55 yea i think it has one Feb 05 18:01:02 ah well, i can do rapidshare on my reg laptop i guess Feb 05 18:01:07 cool Feb 05 18:03:08 DaBeast^: sabnzbd is the one he uses Feb 05 18:04:04 ah yes Feb 05 18:04:34 i had that on windows once, but coulnt get it to work, so i switched back to grabbit Feb 05 18:05:38 well, i dont see major differences between sheevaplug and guruplug/dreamplug Feb 05 18:06:20 i mean, same cpu, same ram (guru has more mhz tough), also guru has 2 instead of 1 gbit port Feb 05 18:06:32 but those are things i actually dont need Feb 05 18:07:07 well the sheevaplug only had a 5v1a powersupply, and was prone to exploding if you ran an unpowered usb drive on it for too long (drew more that 1 amp) Feb 05 18:07:19 so on the guruplug they made it like 5v 5a, but then it overheated Feb 05 18:07:33 so now on the dreamplug the seperated the psu from the board Feb 05 18:07:37 (it's detachable) Feb 05 18:07:53 so you can run it as a true plug, or put it on your desk with a power cord coming from the detached powersupply Feb 05 18:08:26 i see Feb 05 18:08:34 with 2 gigabit ports you can also make your guruplug into a router for your network ;D Feb 05 18:09:09 DaBeast^: par2 is quite cpu intensive, will be quite slow on a plug i think Feb 05 18:09:53 Barlow: you mean the repairing of nzb downloaded archives? Feb 05 18:10:06 yes Feb 05 18:10:11 hmmm Feb 05 18:10:40 but if you're not in a hurry it will be doable i guess Feb 05 18:10:41 I already use my plug as my router, I just have the cable modem plugged into USB ethernet.. Feb 05 18:10:47 the main reason i want a plug is, because its so small, noiseless and only 5 watt, i can leave it on day and night Feb 05 18:11:05 Same here. Feb 05 18:11:57 also, i keep wondering what the jtag thing is Feb 05 18:12:02 also depends on the speed of your connection. Feb 05 18:12:14 DaBeast^: i highly reccomend getting the jtag board Feb 05 18:12:22 what does it do? Feb 05 18:12:37 it lets you interrupt the boot process, so if something goes wrong, like your eth0 not comming on line for some reason, you can recover it easily Feb 05 18:12:49 and it also lets you upgrade the kernel and bootloader easier Feb 05 18:13:00 You know on a PC, when you hit DEL to get into the BIOS? Well without a keyboard/monitor, you need the JTAG to do about the same on the Plug. Feb 05 18:13:07 ^ Feb 05 18:13:15 i see Feb 05 18:13:18 interesting Feb 05 18:13:42 what about these? http://www.ionicsplug.com/products.html Feb 05 18:13:49 are they aftermarket sheevaplugs? Feb 05 18:14:13 i've never owned one of those Feb 05 18:14:23 Yes. Feb 05 18:14:49 The SheevaPlug was a "reference design" specifically meant for other companies to clone it.. The PogoPlug is a spinoff too. Feb 05 18:15:26 yeah the whole point of the sheevaplug being a "dev kit" is so you can make one of those types of things Feb 05 18:15:35 the sheevaplug is like a demo Feb 05 18:15:51 (although that doesn't stop anybody from using it for torrenting etc =p) Feb 05 18:16:06 haha :p Feb 05 18:17:54 so what device would be advisable? Feb 05 18:18:38 Wait a bit, see if the DreamPlug works right, and then get that. Feb 05 18:18:52 i would say, if you don't want to pay 50$ extra or wait a month, to get the guruplug standard Feb 05 18:18:56 that didn't have any problems Feb 05 18:19:04 otherwise wait for the dreamplug Feb 05 18:19:53 there are a lot of cool things you can do with a plug as your router (I.E. requiring dual gigabit) Feb 05 18:19:53 k Feb 05 18:20:18 even if you don't intend on making it your router initially, it's a good weekend project that has a lot of rewards Feb 05 18:20:29 oh yes, they where porting dd-wrt to it, right? Feb 05 18:20:55 yea there's a build of that Feb 05 18:20:56 but what if you allready have a router? :p Feb 05 18:21:04 why dd-wrt? Feb 05 18:21:08 i just use a raw linux distro + iptables Feb 05 18:21:11 (or openwrt for all that matters) Feb 05 18:21:14 Tootoot222++ Feb 05 18:21:17 My Sheeva is a firewall/router, webserver, torrent client, file server with a 2tb hard drive plugged into it.. Feb 05 18:21:29 I use Debian with Shorewall Feb 05 18:21:50 DaBeast^: just disable dhcp on your router, plug both eth into the router (or 1 eth from your modem into the plug, and the other from the plug to the router)0 Feb 05 18:21:52 i actually want to use it wireless Feb 05 18:22:05 the router will act as a switch Feb 05 18:22:12 I have a wireless bridge plugged into my switch.. Feb 05 18:22:12 with dhcp disabled Feb 05 18:23:51 ok, this is what i realy want to do :p Feb 05 18:24:23 i used backtrack 4 to get some wifi passwords, at the place i'm living i got a download limit Feb 05 18:24:59 ._. Feb 05 18:25:04 and the others don't have one? Feb 05 18:25:09 so, torrents on my living network (note, not home) would be crappy because i only got 50gb download limit that i also have to share with another guy Feb 05 18:25:20 kerio: i assume he's just going to use up one of their limits and move on to the next lol Feb 05 18:25:36 vampire plug Feb 05 18:25:38 =D Feb 05 18:25:40 hehe Feb 05 18:25:45 also lol@download limits Feb 05 18:26:02 nope, 2 of the keys i aquired, have 100mbit unlimited traffic internets Feb 05 18:26:07 =o Feb 05 18:26:10 shweeeet Feb 05 18:26:14 so i will be switching between those 2 Feb 05 18:26:52 i have 6gb downloaded/22gb uploaded in this month Feb 05 18:27:02 so yes, vamplug :p Feb 05 18:27:02 last month i had 76gb downloaded and 142 uploaded Feb 05 18:27:04 :3 Feb 05 18:27:10 with the guru/dream plug, if you set up them as a router you can use the wlan0 instead of eth0 for your connection to the internet Feb 05 18:27:21 so you can supply your whole house with internet from your neighbours Feb 05 18:27:21 how's the antenna? Feb 05 18:27:26 can you connect another one? Feb 05 18:27:33 haha Tootoot222 :p Feb 05 18:28:49 Tootoot222: can you connect an external antenna to the guruplug? Feb 05 18:28:53 thats nothing kerio, at home where i got 24mbit unlimited traffic, my record was ~450gb download, ~300gb upload Feb 05 18:29:19 DaBeast^: yeah but i only have a 20/1 :< Feb 05 18:29:45 kerio: i don't think so Feb 05 18:29:57 the real speed is only 16mbit tough :p Feb 05 18:30:00 then it won't work :( Feb 05 18:30:19 kerio: you could make yourself a tinfoil umbrella to capture more signal Feb 05 18:30:29 kerio: why not, what if youd use one of those USB ones? Feb 05 18:30:32 but i don't know if you can add on an antanna Feb 05 18:30:35 like the alfa Feb 05 18:31:11 the alfa is great, 1watt antenna, great range Feb 05 18:31:22 and also full support in backtrack, hehe Feb 05 18:31:50 DaBeast^: nice idea Feb 05 18:33:06 0 Feb 05 18:33:12 er, sorry Feb 05 18:33:22 ^_ Feb 05 18:33:36 ^_^* Feb 05 18:34:07 too bad they dont sell many plugs on ebay Feb 05 18:36:44 Yeah, NewIT used to sell a bunch on there.. eBay has become VERY hostile towards sellers, I imagine they had a lot of trouble when they sold Guruplugs there.. Feb 05 18:37:06 fwiw i can testify for NewIT's willingness to help Feb 05 18:37:24 haha lol, what i also could do is use the plug to pick up the signal, and broadcast it with a password free wireless acces point Feb 05 18:37:26 Yeah, they're far and away the best to buy from. Feb 05 18:37:33 why password free? Feb 05 18:37:49 so everyone has free interwebs? :p Feb 05 18:37:53 UnaClocker: the psu blew up, i sent it back, they sent me a new one (i had to pay for shipping tho) Feb 05 18:37:58 DaBeast^: why do you care? Feb 05 18:38:03 *you* have free interwebs Feb 05 18:38:09 true Feb 05 18:38:17 Yeah, my PSU died a couple months ago.. I just wired in a 5v 2a brick.. heh.. Feb 05 18:38:30 i'm a student, living at a studentshouse (sort of) Feb 05 18:38:44 use aircrack-supported usb wifi network card to join network, share connection through internal wifi Feb 05 18:39:26 or i just could keep the awesomeness for myself :D Feb 05 18:40:03 or if you already have a router, just disable dhcp on it and plug your plug in running a dhcp server Feb 05 18:40:25 ill try that out Feb 05 18:40:26 the router will still broadcast it's wireless network, but all the packets go through the guruplug, and thus to your neighbours Feb 05 18:40:39 haha :p Feb 05 18:40:50 DaBeast^: i meant share as in "share to your devices in a wpa2 encrypted, hidden wifi network" Feb 05 18:41:09 i see Feb 05 18:41:20 like only give the awesome people the password Feb 05 18:41:30 no, keep it for yourself Feb 05 18:41:31 it's your lan Feb 05 18:42:01 true true Feb 05 18:42:22 all your wifi's are belong to me Feb 05 18:42:53 does the sheevaplug have wifi? Feb 05 18:43:02 Nope, I use a bridge. Feb 05 18:43:17 The GuruPlug did, but I don't think the DreamPlug does.. Feb 05 18:43:39 * DaBeast^ shits brix Feb 05 18:43:56 damn, there goes my plan, lolz Feb 05 18:45:13 the dreamplug surely does Feb 05 18:45:15 doesn't it Feb 05 18:45:27 wait, whats this http://www.slashgear.com/marvell-plug-computer-3-0-updates-sheevaplug-with-wifi-bluetooth-hdd-0567674/ Feb 05 18:45:30 yup, wifi Feb 05 18:45:32 2.0 ghz? Feb 05 18:45:46 DaBeast^: Vaporware. Feb 05 18:45:57 looks a bit like the dreamplug Feb 05 18:45:58 There have been a good half dozen vaporware plugs.. Feb 05 18:46:22 They also had one with HDMI output, that never got produced/shipped. Feb 05 18:46:44 hmm Feb 05 18:46:56 heat problems? xD Feb 05 18:47:02 the latest *plug is the dreamplug Feb 05 18:47:09 I'd bet, especially with a HDD in there. Feb 05 18:47:11 it has all the good stuff Feb 05 18:47:45 yes, but its 150$ excluding shipping to belgium lolz Feb 05 18:47:59 http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/c-5-dreamplugs.aspx Yeah, it's got B&G wifi, no N wifi.. My bridge is N.. Feb 05 18:48:07 DaBeast^: weirdly enough, newit will probably make it cost less Feb 05 18:48:17 even though it'll cost 150£ probably Feb 05 18:48:36 heh Feb 05 18:48:59 the dreamplug's design reminds me of an atari console somehow Feb 05 18:49:05 overseas shipping for privates or small businesses is awfully expensive : Feb 05 18:49:06 :< Feb 05 18:49:24 yeah Feb 05 18:49:48 UnaClocker: it also has 2 gigabit Feb 05 18:49:49 :) Feb 05 18:50:10 Yeah, I just can't imagine myself ever needing a 2nd gigabit.. Feb 05 18:50:11 i welcome the switch to a microsd instead of a nand for the internal storage, btw Feb 05 18:50:24 UnaClocker: interface bounding Feb 05 18:50:27 for epic throughput Feb 05 18:50:30 Yeah, that's awesome.. 32gb internal drive, very cool. Feb 05 18:50:48 meh Feb 05 18:50:52 hehe, yeah, I guess.. If the CPU can move that much data.. Feb 05 18:50:57 ah yes, i hope i will be able to host an irc bot on the plug Feb 05 18:51:06 DaBeast^: oh, i don't know about that Feb 05 18:51:24 it could take maybe even 1/10000th of your total bandwidth and cpu time Feb 05 18:51:30 you have to be careful Feb 05 18:51:34 ive seen people hosting irc bouncers Feb 05 18:51:41 heh, you can run an IRC bot on an Arduino.. heh Feb 05 18:51:55 i'm currently connected with znc on my sheevaplug Feb 05 18:52:00 hehe, i own an arduino too :p Feb 05 18:52:06 and i also have a tiny twisted-based irc bot i wrote Feb 05 18:52:27 nice Feb 05 18:52:46 ffuuuu, i want one, like, now :p Feb 05 18:55:24 where could i buy the first gen guruplug (thats the one without heat probs right?) Feb 05 18:55:32 just wait for the dreamplug Feb 05 18:55:33 srsly Feb 05 18:56:29 hmm, will the dreamplug be able to boot from the external sd too? Feb 05 18:57:15 i mean, where's the bootloader? Feb 05 18:57:46 but the extra 50 bucks for functions that ill prob never use, and the wait, is too sucky :p Feb 05 18:57:55 what functions? Feb 05 18:58:04 also it's not extra 50 bucks Feb 05 18:58:07 i mean features Feb 05 18:58:15 unless the guruplug costs less than the sheevaplug Feb 05 18:58:19 like, the sound port Feb 05 18:58:54 no, i meant the dreamplug (that is 150 now, guru/sheeva go for ~100?) Feb 05 19:00:20 the guruplug plus is 130$ Feb 05 19:00:44 isnt the plus one the one that has heat probs? Feb 05 19:00:50 haha what, the standard goes for 99$ Feb 05 19:00:53 same as the sheevaplug Feb 05 19:01:12 anyway, i like more the sheevaplug's looks Feb 05 19:02:31 anyways, i cant make up my mind :p what should i buy; the sheevaplug, sheevaplug aftermarket clone thingy, guruplug standard (if thats the one without heat probs?) Feb 05 19:02:51 DaBeast^: dreamplug Feb 05 19:02:59 lolwut xD Feb 05 19:03:03 even though it's orange :< Feb 05 19:03:13 it looks like an atari xD Feb 05 19:03:37 whats so better on the dreamplug? Feb 05 19:03:44 cpu and ram are the same? Feb 05 19:04:08 internal storage Feb 05 19:04:27 oh wait the guruplug has that too Feb 05 19:04:41 the sd card thingy? Feb 05 19:04:48 no, wait Feb 05 19:04:58 as far as i know, the guruplug has a NAND Feb 05 19:05:36 the dreamplug only has an internal µSD Feb 05 19:06:28 cool, the guruplug has a U-SNAP connector Feb 05 19:07:00 since the pogoplug is based on the sheevaplug, will everything that runs on the sheeva, run on the pogo? Feb 05 19:07:09 the pogoplug v1 is a sheevaplug Feb 05 19:07:14 the v2 is a bit different, but pretty much yeah Feb 05 19:07:20 the dockstar is another option too Feb 05 19:07:28 it was really really cheap some time ago Feb 05 19:07:34 like 35$ Feb 05 19:07:42 and it's a sheevaplug with less ram Feb 05 19:09:40 but you don't have a serial console at that point Feb 05 19:09:55 the sheevaplug has one :3 Feb 05 19:28:12 what is the openrd? Feb 05 20:03:15 I've heard you can hack the dockstar to get at it's serial console. Feb 05 20:03:37 But I've also heard it uses such crappy NAND chips that you have to manually navigate around bad sectors. Feb 05 20:10:33 UnaClocker: well, it's meant to be read-only Feb 05 20:10:47 Ahh.. Feb 05 20:12:25 what about resoldering to better NAND chips? Feb 05 20:17:00 whats this meant to be? http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/p-35-openrd-ultimate.aspx Feb 05 20:24:16 ohshi kerio http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/p-40-guruplug-display-devkit.aspx Feb 05 20:25:24 7 USB ports.. That means 1 USB port with 2 4 port hubs hooked to it.. Feb 05 20:33:09 was talking about the HDMI :p Feb 05 20:35:59 hey Feb 05 21:58:53 < UnaClocker> They also had one with HDMI output, that never got produced/shipped. Feb 05 21:58:57 they are shipping those now Feb 05 21:59:06 or, they're going to start shipping at the same time as the dreamplug Feb 05 22:08:48 i'm just going to go for the dreamplug with a displaylink video card Feb 05 22:08:57 hoping they work well Feb 05 22:09:02 (displaylink( Feb 05 22:09:09 got that HP displaylink Feb 05 22:11:13 dmb: why do you want to run a display on your plug? Feb 05 22:11:35 just for fun :P Feb 05 22:12:32 what distro are you going to use? Feb 05 22:13:02 probably the default debian Feb 05 22:21:44 Tootoot222: any idea if they will include debian squeeze? Feb 05 22:29:35 dmb: tbh i didn't even boot the debian that came on my guruplug, i just replaced it because it was so broken Feb 05 22:29:44 hopefully they'll have fixed any issues Feb 05 22:30:29 (although i did back it up incase i needed it later) Feb 05 23:03:09 Tootoot222: are you getting a dreatmplug? Feb 05 23:07:11 dmb: i hope so Feb 05 23:09:35 wonder when they are getting shipped Feb 05 23:10:27 isnt the us version allready shipped, Feb 05 23:13:52 dmb / DaBeast^: the website says early febuary, but knowing globalscale it'll probably towards the end Feb 05 23:14:03 newit got a few sample ones, so they definately exist Feb 06 00:59:37 The DreamPlug uses Marvell PXA168 (Armada 168) SOC Feb 06 01:21:58 what was the sheeva/guruplug? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Feb 06 02:59:57 2011
