**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Sep 19 02:59:56 2005 Sep 19 11:37:57 hi koen Sep 19 11:38:06 hey eFfeM Sep 19 12:07:58 hi, can someone help me with the following: Sep 19 12:08:20 i connected a 2 port kensington usb hub to the slug and connected 2 usb sticks Sep 19 12:08:38 lsusb and /proc/bus/usb/devices show both sticks Sep 19 12:08:50 I can mount one via /dev/sdb1 Sep 19 12:09:10 but how do I mount the other? /dev/sdc1 is not a valid block device Sep 19 12:09:20 sda? Sep 19 12:09:24 do I need to config the number of devices in the kernel or what? Sep 19 12:09:39 sda is the hard disk I am booting from.... Sep 19 12:10:11 so I have, sda: hd, sdb: 1st flash, but second ???? Sep 19 12:10:44 is there something in the kernel that says only two storage devices ?? Sep 19 12:11:20 could you see which disks show up in cat /proc/diskstats ? Sep 19 12:12:02 leaving out ram, mtdbblock and sda1: Sep 19 12:12:04 8 16 sdb 317 126 450 2200 0 0 0 0 0 2200 2200 Sep 19 12:12:04 8 17 sdb1 442 442 0 0 Sep 19 12:12:04 8 32 sdc 1 0 8 20 0 0 0 0 0 20 20 Sep 19 12:12:27 looks like the disk isn't formatted Sep 19 12:12:30 ehm, stick Sep 19 12:12:43 try fdisking it Sep 19 12:12:44 i tried another stick with the same results Sep 19 12:12:58 there is content on them, let me first try to swap them Sep 19 12:21:22 ok, got it, the stick and hub are ok, problem was that one stick had to be mounted as /dev/sdb1 and the other one as /dev/sdc (and not /dev/sdc1) Sep 19 12:37:24 hi all, i ve a problem using the latest OpenSlug 2.5 Beta on my slug. i've connected a 160 Gig disk to my slug through usb. Using samba ive have more then 60 gig shared on my slug. Now i want to add a dvd iso of 4.7 gig and slug is reporting "Disk Full" while there is still 90 Gig free, is this a know problem? Sep 19 12:38:12 can you add shorter files? what is the filesystem on the disk? Sep 19 12:41:48 df reports /dev/sda1 153834852 48153552 97866884 33% / Sep 19 12:42:32 filesystem is ext3 Sep 19 12:42:48 and yes i can add smaller files in size .. Sep 19 12:44:14 filename is long (+20 char) but that should be no problem right? Sep 19 12:45:26 try with a shorter filename, just in case ;) Sep 19 12:46:40 hm, is there a limit on max file size in ext3 ? Sep 19 12:46:55 not in OpenSlug, IIRC Sep 19 12:47:20 well... there *is*, but I doubt anyone has a "several-TB-disk" connected to the slug Sep 19 12:47:27 probably try adding 5 1GB files (could be copies of the same, and you can use dd to get 1GB from your 5GB file Sep 19 12:47:46 I knew there was, but I had no idea on the max size Sep 19 12:48:28 The problem is quite possibly samba, but I've avoided looking at the issue so far Sep 19 12:49:15 ie. samba reports wrong filesize for large files, and sometimes large files can't get copied Sep 19 12:49:34 NAiL: i'll check what i can find... Sep 19 12:50:03 I suspect it's time for another long round of hacking samba Sep 19 12:52:42 NAiL: is there any info on what's the limit in filesize.... and is it constant or is there no specific info? Sep 19 12:53:20 i know its beta release but i'm just curious Sep 19 12:53:22 samba could well be the case. you can also install nfs and try that Sep 19 12:53:31 or install an ftp server on the slug and ftp the file Sep 19 12:53:52 or if you are on a PC install winscp and copy the file through winscp Sep 19 12:54:00 (or scp under linux) Sep 19 12:55:50 hmm Sep 19 12:56:01 there is another root cause Sep 19 12:56:07 ? Sep 19 12:56:26 I see some of "my" bugs have been fixed in 3.0.20 Sep 19 12:56:42 I can see if I can get 3.0.20 to work the way it's supposed to ;) Sep 19 12:56:53 a long is 32 bits and with 32 bits you can access 4 GB. A lot of programs store size in a long or an unsigned long Sep 19 12:57:09 typically these fail at 2GB or 4GB (or truncate) Sep 19 12:57:26 my file is 4.5 Gig Sep 19 12:57:38 it could also be that 4.7 G files gets truncated to .7 or that they won't work at all Sep 19 12:57:58 yeah, that's why I suggested trying with smaller files. Sep 19 12:58:08 E.g. can you copy a 1Gb VOB file from a dvd? Sep 19 12:58:10 and just before the and it reports "disk full" Sep 19 12:58:17 and do that 5 times? Sep 19 12:58:26 aha Sep 19 12:58:28 hmm Sep 19 12:58:31 hey, this looks like it copied 4 GB ! Sep 19 12:58:37 * NAiL tries creating a large file Sep 19 13:01:33 * wzl tried copying smaller files and succeeded using 1Gig Sep 19 13:02:11 can you copy the file under 5 different names (so add 5 GB) Sep 19 13:02:20 to check if the disk full message appears Sep 19 13:02:56 if so, it is probably time for fsck :-) Sep 19 13:04:59 4739612 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4848615424 Sep 19 22:02 largefile Sep 19 13:05:08 well, the fs handles large files nicely Sep 19 13:05:14 so it's a samba issue Sep 19 13:05:24 hmkay... Sep 19 13:05:26 (unless fsck is needed ;) Sep 19 13:05:58 away for 45 mins ... Sep 19 13:10:53 ok multiple files of 1Gig are copied without any problem via Samba Sep 19 13:11:23 a 8GB file works just nicely Sep 19 13:12:00 samba reports the filesize as 0 bytes though Sep 19 13:12:23 NAiL: you succeeded coping a 8gig file to your slug? Sep 19 13:12:44 no, I created it on the slug Sep 19 13:12:56 just to see if it was a filesystem issue Sep 19 13:20:26 hey folks. Sep 19 13:20:31 Bin a long time Sep 19 13:20:39 yes Sep 19 13:20:45 I did have some questions for you Sep 19 13:20:53 Ask away. Sep 19 13:20:53 but I can't remember what I was supposed to ask anymore :P Sep 19 13:20:58 o Sep 19 13:21:04 I have a question. Sep 19 13:21:33 I'm using the jffs2 boot partition on openslug to setup a new system Sep 19 13:21:46 I'm downloading with wget and getting *horrible* throughput. Sep 19 13:21:55 from where? Sep 19 13:21:57 ...and now it's stalling. Sep 19 13:21:58 Local. Sep 19 13:22:07 hmm Sep 19 13:22:11 I can download to my notebook over wireless at MB/s. Sep 19 13:22:24 I've noticed issues with wget when installing openslug-native... Sep 19 13:22:25 the slug is connected to a hub. Sep 19 13:22:36 It's stalled again. Sep 19 13:22:36 hub? Not switch? Sep 19 13:22:47 Yeah. I have a couple of hubs around for debug. Sep 19 13:22:48 This is one. Sep 19 13:23:00 I can move it to a switch, but I've noticed this before. Sep 19 13:23:44 OK. It's on the (GB) switch. Sep 19 13:23:57 <[g2]> beewoolie iirc the default wget is busybox Sep 19 13:24:04 Rite. Sep 19 13:24:21 Well well well. Sep 19 13:24:23 Guess what. Sep 19 13:24:28 <[g2]> what ? Sep 19 13:24:30 The hub makes it run like molasses. Sep 19 13:24:38 Switch transfer is speedy. Sep 19 13:24:42 Not what I'd expect. Sep 19 13:25:01 <[g2]> which switch ? Sep 19 13:25:01 Interesting,nonetheless. Sep 19 13:25:12 I have a GB switch for a "backbone". Sep 19 13:25:28 How's things, [g2]? Sep 19 13:25:33 <[g2]> me too, but mine runs like the blazes :) Sep 19 13:25:45 <[g2]> beewoolie most excellent thanks Sep 19 13:25:48 I may have to take the hub out of the network. Sep 19 13:25:55 Nice to hear it. Sep 19 13:26:01 When can we buy your gear? Sep 19 13:26:01 beewoolie: one ques... It's possible to do changes to apex after it's been written to flash, right? Aliases or environment variables or something? Sep 19 13:26:11 NAiL: Yeah. Sep 19 13:26:16 The environment is written to flash. Sep 19 13:26:22 beewoolie: I tried. And failed. Sep 19 13:26:23 apex> setenv ... Sep 19 13:26:26 Failed how? Sep 19 13:26:34 Did it report an error/ Sep 19 13:26:36 ? Sep 19 13:26:45 hmm... setenv complained, can't remember exactly what right now.. Sep 19 13:26:45 Good place to start is Sep 19 13:26:48 apex> du $env Sep 19 13:27:00 It will show the contents of the memory where the environment is stored. Sep 19 13:27:08 It could be that it wasn't cleared. Sep 19 13:27:28 It's supposed to be careful about overwriting something that it doesn't own. Sep 19 13:27:34 hehe Sep 19 13:27:44 good thing, imho Sep 19 13:27:55 Unfortunately, it looks like this is broken on another platform, tho I don't yet know why. Sep 19 13:28:25 the slug in question doesn't work right now, so I can't check. (I'm out of serial cables anyway) Sep 19 13:28:37 I'll flash apex on my devslug soon and see if I can reproduce it Sep 19 13:29:19 OK. I'm going to look into some problems that [g2] reported as well as a couple of other issues. Sep 19 13:29:39 Hopefully, I'll get apex on the ds101 soon too :D Sep 19 13:29:46 Right now, I'm trying to get BE debian on a slug so I can use it for some stuff. Sep 19 13:30:04 NAiL: ds101? Is that another one of these consumer products? IIRC, a NAS? Sep 19 13:30:16 yes, it's a slug with an IDE-interface and 64mb ram Sep 19 13:30:26 Hm. Handy. Sep 19 13:30:26 in a bigger box, so it has space for a hdd Sep 19 13:30:32 More costly? Sep 19 13:30:44 Oh, doesn't it come with a drive, too? Sep 19 13:30:48 there's two versions though, ds101 (which is ixp420) and ds101g+ which is ppc Sep 19 13:30:55 Whoa. Sep 19 13:31:02 It's >2x the price of a slug for a ds101g+ atleast Sep 19 13:31:19 the ds101g+ has GBLan and S-ATA ;) Sep 19 13:31:21 <[g2]> much better to get a Loft :) Sep 19 13:31:30 Damn! Sep 19 13:31:46 <[g2]> I'm running GigE on the Loft :) Sep 19 13:31:47 [g2]: I'll have to get one of them aswell ;) Sep 19 13:31:52 For $200? Sounds like a reasonable deal. Sep 19 13:31:54 [g2]: you are? Sep 19 13:32:01 <[g2]> yup Sep 19 13:32:06 How'd you get GigE? Sep 19 13:32:11 miniPCI? Sep 19 13:32:14 <[g2]> nod. Sep 19 13:32:23 Is LOFT your platform, [g2]? Sep 19 13:32:29 <[g2]> beewoolie yup Sep 19 13:32:45 I'd like to buy one or two. Are you taking orders? Sep 19 13:33:16 <[g2]> real soon. I'm booting to Debian Sarge and running it Sep 19 13:33:31 <[g2]> root=/dev/hda1 Sep 19 13:33:36 <[g2]> A microdrive Sep 19 13:33:40 <[g2]> in the CF slot Sep 19 13:33:49 sweet. Sep 19 13:34:36 <[g2]> the proto's have a 533Mhz 425 on them Sep 19 13:34:58 <[g2]> the GigE card did 200Mbs on the 266 Sep 19 13:35:09 [g2]: more pictures! Sep 19 13:35:13 ;) Sep 19 13:35:39 <[g2]> koen did you see the old pictures ? Sep 19 13:36:03 the tiny one on top Sep 19 13:36:24 <[g2]> no I meant the 6M pixel ones Sep 19 13:36:53 haven't seen those Sep 19 13:37:43 Where are the pictures? Is this a chat feature? Sep 19 13:48:47 hi, anyone any idea on the following problem.... Sep 19 13:49:00 I have an apacer megasteno multicard reader Sep 19 13:49:12 if I put a CF card in it I can see it Sep 19 13:49:41 but if I put an mmc card in it and try to mount it I get no medium found Sep 19 13:49:50 "no medium found" Sep 19 13:50:05 on FC4 it works like a charm Sep 19 13:50:41 anyone any idea? Sep 19 13:54:12 Multicard reader has more then one mount point right fir the serveral cards.... (different slots) maybe mounting wrong slot ? Sep 19 13:56:59 tried sdc/sdc1/sdd/sdd1/sde/sde1/sdf/sdf1 to no avail Sep 19 13:57:09 it always says "not a valid block device" Sep 19 13:57:21 only for sdb/sdb1 it says "no medium found' Sep 19 13:59:51 anyone another idea? Sep 19 14:00:42 <[g2]> koen around ? Sep 19 14:02:12 now I am Sep 19 14:07:22 are there any usb 802.11 dongles known to work with openslug? Sep 19 14:08:27 zd1211 works Sep 19 14:08:33 it's 802.11b/g Sep 19 14:08:38 * wzl seeks his bed.. night all Sep 19 14:08:42 nite Sep 19 14:08:52 nite Sep 19 14:09:14 eFfeM: There are several dongles based on the zd1211 chipset. Google is your friend. I've got a 3Com officeconnect one. Sep 19 14:09:48 ok, i can find that Sep 19 14:10:49 i'm in the us next week so i'm planning to go to fry;s to buy some usb periphs to play with Sep 19 14:11:06 ah Sep 19 14:11:07 cool Sep 19 14:11:15 i understood that the iMic from griffin is also working under linux, so that would add audio in and audio out Sep 19 14:11:34 afaik, yes. someone got a creative USB-thingy to work as well Sep 19 14:11:35 seems cool for $ 30 or 40 Sep 19 14:11:45 yeah I saw that Sep 19 14:12:48 might also buy a hub and a BT adapter (then it can communicate with my gps, need the battery though :-) Sep 19 14:13:00 oh well Sep 19 14:13:19 rwhitby got BT working afaik. I've had no luck with my BT dongle yet though :( Sep 19 14:13:39 it probably depends on the chipset Sep 19 14:13:39 I had bluetooth working as well Sep 19 14:13:44 a few reflashes ago Sep 19 14:13:54 yeah Sep 19 14:14:01 I've got a broadcom chipset Sep 19 14:14:08 * NAiL dislikes broadcom Sep 19 14:14:15 no idea what is good and what not Sep 19 14:14:17 csr over here Sep 19 14:14:24 not too keen about broadcom either Sep 19 14:14:54 just posted my mmc problem Sep 19 14:15:04 hope someone can enlighten me Sep 19 14:15:22 hmm Sep 19 14:15:30 multi lun? Sep 19 14:15:36 yes Sep 19 14:15:55 is multi lun enabled in the kernel at all? Sep 19 14:16:18 i think it is multi-lun Sep 19 14:17:15 hmm Sep 19 14:17:16 CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y Sep 19 14:17:25 It's set in openslug-kernel 2.6.12.2... Sep 19 14:17:31 what's the relevant dmesg output? Sep 19 14:19:31 my defconfig says: Sep 19 14:19:32 # CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN is not set Sep 19 14:19:39 that explains things Sep 19 14:19:51 huh? Sep 19 14:19:53 oh Sep 19 14:19:55 should I compile this in or better make this a module Sep 19 14:20:02 I didn't touch *that* Sep 19 14:20:05 that might have been changed in HEAD, but not in 2.5-beta Sep 19 14:20:24 explains a lot Sep 19 14:20:55 Dunno if it *can* be compiled as a module, but it might be worth trying Sep 19 14:21:03 in that case I'll put it in the 2.5-beta feed Sep 19 14:21:09 I'll sort it out. Sep 19 14:21:22 later ...; calling it a day for now (long day tomorrow) Sep 19 14:21:39 thanks for your help and probably till wednesday Sep 19 14:22:17 np Sep 19 14:22:43 cu Sep 19 17:04:43 NAiL: about samba and >4Gig files there is output in logfiles Sep 19 17:05:23 ah Sep 19 17:05:30 what's the output? Sep 19 17:05:39 reply_write_and_X - large offset (1 << 32) used and we don't support 64 bit offsets which according to google: Samba hasn't been compiled in 64 bit mode. Sep 19 17:06:23 yeah Sep 19 17:06:33 there's several configure variables to set to get 64bit though Sep 19 17:06:42 apparently, I've missed some Sep 19 17:06:56 it gives the message exactly on the moment it passed 4Gig Sep 19 17:07:30 not surprising Sep 19 17:08:01 so those are me findings , i couldnt get to sleap thinking about the problem, currently im using version 3.0.20 of smbd Sep 19 17:09:27 ok Sep 19 17:09:33 I'll be looking into it tomorrow Sep 19 17:09:45 it's a tad annoying, since I thought I fixed the problem :P Sep 19 17:11:40 haha take your time no rush, i'm just testing Sep 19 17:12:16 i'll just be glad to help .. tomorrow i'm hoping to setup my own cross compile envoirement Sep 19 17:14:00 * weazul dreams about large >32bit offsets 2night ;-) Sep 19 17:54:48 recompiling samba with a bunch of new flags now Sep 19 17:55:03 it'll take a while since I'm lacking a few dependencies still Sep 19 18:25:15 creating a >4GB file now... let's see if it works Sep 19 18:27:03 heh Sep 19 18:27:09 now the filesize is screwed Sep 19 18:27:24 when it reached 4GB, it started counting at 0 Sep 20 01:01:41 good morning all **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Sep 20 02:59:56 2005
