**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Feb 08 10:59:58 2006 Feb 08 11:08:49 now i manually changed it in tmp/work, just to see if it works, and voila, i now have a 128MB-turbo-debianslug running :) Feb 08 11:09:29 niiiiiice :) Feb 08 11:09:39 so i still have to search for the correct place for the command line to make it permanent Feb 08 11:12:14 i also had some problems with apt-get and gpgv, but somehow, after changing the mirror to DE, they all went away... Feb 08 12:21:00 <[g2]> joschkopf are you running LE ? Feb 08 12:21:18 right, le :) Feb 08 12:22:57 <[g2]> did you find the cmdline ? Feb 08 12:23:19 i changed it direclty in .confing in the working directory Feb 08 12:23:25 i did not yet find the correct place... Feb 08 12:23:39 but i just wanted to see if this is actually the problem Feb 08 12:24:16 <[g2]> what actual problem are you seeing ? Feb 08 12:24:19 i have to say that i'm no python guru, so its difficult to understand the bb-things :) Feb 08 12:24:43 i didn't get the 128MB ram on my fatslug, only 32 with slugos-le Feb 08 12:24:53 <[g2]> yeah my python-foo is weak too, but at least the .bb's are pretty readable Feb 08 12:25:05 the reason for this is, that slugos overwrites the command line, which it gets from apex Feb 08 12:25:36 so i have to add "mem=128MB@0x000000" to the default kernel configuration Feb 08 12:25:56 i changed it in den defconfig, but this doesn't help Feb 08 12:26:00 ... or eliminate the mem= bit ? Feb 08 12:26:10 hm, where? Feb 08 12:26:36 i know how to configure the kernel on a normal system, but i don't (yet) understand how it is done in OE Feb 08 12:29:26 <[g2]> joschkopf yeah there's an overwrite of the kernel commad line for LE now Feb 08 12:29:54 <[g2]> I'll have to do a fresh pull to find where that stuff is Feb 08 12:30:09 <[g2]> joschkopf can you do me a favor Feb 08 12:30:15 sure? Feb 08 12:30:23 <[g2]> apt-get install bonnie++ Feb 08 12:30:31 <[g2]> and run bonnie on the hd Feb 08 12:30:34 bonnie++ ? Feb 08 12:30:37 :) Feb 08 12:30:45 <[g2]> it's a disk performance test Feb 08 12:30:50 ah, ok... Feb 08 12:31:08 <[g2]> I'm seeing errors on may 128M and 256M lofts Feb 08 12:31:26 when running this test? Feb 08 12:31:27 openembedded/packages/linux/nslu2-kernel.inc ? Feb 08 12:31:31 <[g2]> I think it's related to the pci_indirect Feb 08 12:31:53 <[g2]> when I configure for 64MB on the same hw it works fine Feb 08 12:32:15 <[g2]> and all 3 of my unit exhibit the same issue, but only under lots of load Feb 08 12:32:36 how to run bonnie? Feb 08 12:32:59 <[g2]> bonnie++ :) Feb 08 12:33:14 <[g2]> man bonnie++ for a little description Feb 08 12:33:16 ah ok... i have to run with a different user Feb 08 12:33:28 <[g2]> yeah as a normal user Feb 08 12:33:30 i hope it doesn't hurt anything... :-O Feb 08 12:33:40 now its writing something Feb 08 12:34:06 <[g2]> it's a nice teset Feb 08 12:34:07 <[g2]> test Feb 08 12:34:25 <[g2]> dyoung-away it's moved to the MAC list stuff iirc Feb 08 12:34:57 ok, ii'll be away for a minute, i'll tell you how the test ran in a minute Feb 08 12:35:01 <[g2]> dyoung-away I commented it out on my version of the Loft's CVS kernel stuff Feb 08 12:35:22 <[g2]> joschkopf are you aware of the kernel CVS repo ? Feb 08 12:35:35 nope? Feb 08 12:35:55 <[g2]> it's the kernel trunk on the nslu project at sf.net Feb 08 12:36:11 and the kernel development takes place there? Feb 08 12:36:16 <[g2]> you can just point your OE build tool chain and build just the kernel and modules Feb 08 12:36:32 <[g2]> it's the staging area for pushing stuff upstream Feb 08 12:36:39 ah, ok Feb 08 12:36:57 so how does this help my problem? Feb 08 12:37:07 the CMDLINE is in the file I mentioned. Feb 08 12:37:21 <[g2]> it would be really long lived, but for you buliding kernels it'll make things a lot easier Feb 08 12:37:37 <[g2]> dyoung-away yes, but I think it's overwritten at runtime Feb 08 12:38:27 on a nslu2? Feb 08 12:38:37 I'm pretty sure thats what gets passed. Feb 08 12:38:58 remember it works under openslug. but not debianslug for joschkopf Feb 08 12:40:00 <[g2]> dyoung-away I think jbowler switched the patching of the command line Feb 08 12:40:10 <[g2]> I know it was there for the Loft Feb 08 12:40:15 ok Feb 08 12:40:20 <[g2]> I had to undo those changes Feb 08 12:40:23 I only got my builder working yesterday Feb 08 12:40:34 it had been offline since november. Feb 08 12:40:53 <[g2]> 94-loft-setup.patch Feb 08 12:41:25 <[g2]> dyoung-away you are absolutely correct that it was there for nearly 1.5 years :) Feb 08 12:41:56 Hmm Feb 08 12:42:16 teh 91-foo series of patch doesnt do anything to with the mem= bit though. Feb 08 12:42:50 heh in fact: Feb 08 12:42:55 + /* The NSLU2 has one bank of 32MByte memory. Feb 08 12:42:56 + * NOTE: to make a 'fatslug' work append the appropriate Feb 08 12:42:56 + * mem= to the CONFIG_CMDLINE - this will override the Feb 08 12:42:56 + * setting below. Feb 08 12:43:43 <[g2]> right it passes in the mem ATAG Feb 08 12:45:05 <[g2]> dyoung-away it's probably either nslu2-kernel.inc as you mentioned or ixp4xx-kernel.inc Feb 08 12:47:58 yep, joschkopf lookit one of those. :-) Feb 08 13:01:19 SCHLAUBI:/etc/samba/drivers# bonnie++ -u 2000 Feb 08 13:01:19 Using uid:2000, gid:2000.

Feb 08 13:09:36 <[g2]> kami22 are you very good with SMT soldering ? Feb 08 13:09:50 <[g2]> or have access to hotair guns and reflow stations ? Feb 08 13:15:55 no :) Feb 08 13:16:03 i think this is my Problem :) Feb 08 13:16:19 but is there any chance to fatslug my system? Feb 08 15:33:25 morning VoodooZ, EvilDevil Feb 08 15:34:35 morning Feb 08 15:34:50 Glad to see i'm not alone in here. :) Feb 08 15:39:59 it is very quiet some days Feb 08 15:40:19 until jbowler/nail show up especially Feb 08 15:40:32 how is initng Feb 08 15:43:14 yeah. it seems most of the guys are working on the opposite shift. Feb 08 15:43:43 I couldn't get initng to compile as it's looking for a FORTIFY_SOURCE define that doesn't exist. Feb 08 15:43:52 Probably our GCC is too old? Feb 08 15:44:02 I read it was a new feature of GCC. Feb 08 15:45:17 (just to "show up") :-P Feb 08 15:45:27 heheh Feb 08 15:45:35 Always to have you around. Feb 08 15:45:47 oops. insert "Good" after Always. Feb 08 15:46:00 hehe Feb 08 15:46:27 Today I'm not gonna do much though. Waiting for three feeds to build, which is gonna take a fair while Feb 08 15:47:37 I noticed jbowler has been cranking out the checkins. Is the release closer than I though? Feb 08 15:47:44 you rebuilding entire feed? Feb 08 15:47:55 morning kitno455 Feb 08 15:48:24 kami22: i did it with a normal soldering iron and a good magnifying glass Feb 08 15:49:19 EvilDevil, i suppose it is evening for you? Feb 08 15:49:39 for desoldering, i first soldered a silver wire to each side of the old chip and then heated up this wire with the soldering iron, so all pins on one side got hot Feb 08 15:49:52 kitno455 4:50 pm Feb 08 15:50:05 here too 4:50pm :) Feb 08 15:50:24 here: 10:50am (EST canada) Feb 08 15:50:31 gmt+1 germany Feb 08 15:50:43 hmm, you guys dont use 24hr time in europe? Feb 08 15:50:44 gmt-5 Feb 08 15:50:56 VoodooZ, same here, EST US Feb 08 15:51:12 kitno455 we use 24hr time here... i just wanted to make it better readable for you :-P Feb 08 15:51:19 ahah Feb 08 15:51:25 i thought so Feb 08 15:51:46 i can convert. i can also use metric somewhat :) Feb 08 15:52:12 hmm- i dont seem to have dns resolution on my slug Feb 08 15:52:24 metric is better anyway ;-) Feb 08 15:53:56 agreed on the metric Feb 08 15:54:06 at least as far as math goes Feb 08 15:54:26 it contains more logical components ;) Feb 08 15:54:43 kitno455, good. I thought I was the only one on this continent. :) Feb 08 15:54:55 logic- whats that? i am an american. we dont use logic :) Feb 08 15:55:06 I'm totally metric. Feb 08 15:55:16 darn queer euros and their logic... Feb 08 15:55:29 kitno455 :-O Feb 08 15:55:33 hehehe Feb 08 15:55:48 i have a complete set of metric and standard tools Feb 08 15:55:57 there are only 10 people who understand binary... :-) Feb 08 15:55:59 it can be very expensive Feb 08 15:56:06 For engineering it makes so much more sense. Feb 08 15:56:12 no- there are only 10 kinds of people in the world Feb 08 15:56:14 VoodooZ: The release needs to be tested a bit, before we let it go. There has been a few issues that needed to be solved. Feb 08 15:56:39 NAiL, cool. It's looking good. Let me know and I can be your guinea pig. Feb 08 15:56:52 well.. enough conversation about metric Feb 08 15:57:08 kitno455: I'm currently building the openslug, debianslug and slugos-ltu feeds ;) Feb 08 15:58:01 yeah, you're making me jealous with all the base10 talk Feb 08 15:58:03 VoodooZ: hi can you tell me with which soldering iron you did this? Feb 08 15:58:47 kami22, euh? what are you refering to exactly? The fattening thing? I didn't do it yet. Feb 08 15:59:28 kami22: i actually used 2 different irons :) Feb 08 15:59:53 i have a big one with i think 40watts, i used this for desoldering Feb 08 16:00:05 for soldering the new chips i used a very small one with 10 watts only Feb 08 16:00:12 i guess my 5 euro soldering iron wouldn't fit the requirements ;) Feb 08 16:00:34 wow- 5 euros? i pulled mine from a trashcan Feb 08 16:00:50 I stole mine from my old job! oops! :) Feb 08 16:00:56 i am using a ersa station to solder iron Feb 08 16:01:37 i didn't buy ersa because i was too expensive :) Feb 08 16:01:54 mine is "star tec" Feb 08 16:02:51 VoodooZ that reminds me of http://www.bash.org/?258908 ;-) Feb 08 16:02:57 mine is one of those entry-level ones from a good company I can't remember the name. Feb 08 16:03:16 I need to buy some tips for it though. It doesn't have temperature control unfortunately Feb 08 16:04:02 hehehe Feb 08 16:04:05 temperature control? mine is binary... cold or hot ;) Feb 08 16:04:09 ok- having trouble getting dns resolution to work on ucslugc built late yesterday HEAD Feb 08 16:04:20 hehehe mine too. pretty much. Feb 08 16:04:27 Ah! I remember now. It's a Weller. Feb 08 16:04:41 old wellers are very nice Feb 08 16:04:49 kitno455: did you ipkg upgrade? That kills /etc/resolv.conf ;) Feb 08 16:04:52 yep. It's old too! :) Feb 08 16:05:05 new wellers not so good, they got bought out iirc Feb 08 16:05:17 NAiL, /etc/resolv.conf looks goo Feb 08 16:05:36 NAiL, if i tcpdump on my dns server, i can see that it responds to slug Feb 08 16:05:46 ah, so it's something else Feb 08 16:05:58 yeah- slug not like response? Feb 08 16:06:40 joschkopf are you going to offer some slug-fattenig service? :-) Feb 08 16:06:48 hehe Feb 08 16:06:53 in this case, i would be interested Feb 08 16:06:55 hmm- i can ping the host by ip, just can resolve it Feb 08 16:07:05 Me too! Feb 08 16:07:07 hm Feb 08 16:07:08 :) Feb 08 16:07:21 kitno455, do you have iptables running? Feb 08 16:07:23 i don't think its worth sending the slug from us to germany and back :) Feb 08 16:07:34 yeah. good point Feb 08 16:07:36 but evildevil, where are you exactly? Feb 08 16:08:03 joschkopf rh-pf, near homburg/saar Feb 08 16:08:17 ah, here near stuttgart Feb 08 16:08:49 can you tell me which size your tips has? Feb 08 16:09:00 i hope this is the right word :) Feb 08 16:09:33 debianslug uses pretty much ram if you're running some standard servers (apache/smbd/proftpd) and some p2p clients :/ Feb 08 16:10:35 that was the reason for the fattening :) Feb 08 16:11:13 kami22: i'm not completely sure, but i think its a 0.5mm tip Feb 08 16:11:33 the one i used for desoldering is veeeery big, so no special requirements here Feb 08 16:11:59 pretty small :/ my soldering iron has a 10mm tip :-/ Feb 08 16:12:44 10mm?!?!? are you soldering high voltage lines? :-O Feb 08 16:13:37 kind of ;) i needed to solder my own "kaltgerätestecker" to mulit outlet plug ;) Feb 08 16:14:05 i think he is the guy how is stealing voltage from the 400 kV line near my town for his experiments :) Feb 08 16:14:47 maybe he is growing some plants in his basement :-P Feb 08 16:15:00 hehehe Feb 08 16:15:08 this must be really big plants Feb 08 16:15:10 :) Feb 08 16:15:18 joschkopf almost :-P http://www.patrickschneider.info/slugcastle.htm Feb 08 16:15:22 you dont need to connect to the kv line to steal power from it Feb 08 16:15:31 just lay a wire on the ground under it Feb 08 16:15:47 inductive power ;) Feb 08 16:15:55 i know but thats doesnt thrilling :) Feb 08 16:15:59 haha Feb 08 16:16:07 thrilled to death Feb 08 16:16:17 afk Feb 08 16:16:26 anything with a multi-meter long insulator scares me Feb 08 16:16:41 better say: thrilled to sand. much more wont be left :) Feb 08 16:17:17 we call this a "Platinenlutscher" :) Feb 08 16:19:08 test Feb 08 16:34:19 anyone knows the php-function to determine, how long it took to generate a webpage? Feb 08 16:59:55 <^herman2^> joschkopf no, but it will be slow ;) Feb 08 17:00:00 <^herman2^> (just tested it) Feb 08 17:00:28 i just installed apache2 + php, we'll see :) Feb 08 17:00:40 pure html seems very fast - compared to a normal slug :) Feb 08 17:03:19 NAiL, my dns resolution problems are getting stranger Feb 08 17:03:38 ssh out from slug and nslookup from slug cannot resolve the host Feb 08 17:03:54 but ping and curl can Feb 08 17:06:22 anyone here running a recent HEAD build of openslug or ucslugc? Feb 08 17:06:44 joschkopf? Feb 08 17:06:58 here Feb 08 17:07:06 damn standy-mode :/ Feb 08 17:07:12 not on yahoo? Feb 08 17:07:43 ups Feb 08 17:15:21 anyone tried to do a make update recently?
