**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri May 04 02:59:56 2007 May 04 11:29:42 hcg * r7089 /trunk/target/linux/at91-2.6/ (9 files in 8 dirs): May 04 11:29:42 Changed partitioning not to use at91part.c as opposed to using May 04 11:29:42 command-line partitioning. May 04 17:35:58 nbd * r7090 /trunk/package/broadcom-diag/src/gpio.h: fix gpio interrupts on broadcom (thanks, jpcass) May 04 21:59:22 nbd May 04 21:59:28 you are the inside man May 04 21:59:37 http://www.digg.com/linux_unix/DD_WRT_Sliding_down_the_slippery_slope_Give_em_hell_Digg_users May 04 22:00:21 which parts are true? May 04 22:00:38 <[mbm]> that's db90h's site May 04 22:01:00 <[mbm]> and he wrote that awhile ago May 04 22:03:58 <[mbm]> comments on digg are highly amusing May 04 22:04:12 <[mbm]> "n addition, BrainSlayer works closely with the OpenWRT team and contributes code back to them for inclusion in their firmware" May 04 22:05:31 lol May 04 22:06:35 * [mbm] really tempted to write back May 04 22:08:46 so another sveasoft? May 04 22:10:41 nbd * r7091 /trunk/package/qos-scripts/files/usr/lib/qos/generate.sh: add qos-scripts connbytes match from #1618 May 04 22:11:20 common: do yourself a favor, decide for yourself. compare the code from the linksys web interface to dd-wrt's. That is the main issue of most of the semi-educated arguement. May 04 22:13:46 nbd * r7092 /trunk/target/linux/brcm-2.4/ (67 files in 13 dirs): convert brcm-2.4 to the new target structure May 04 22:14:14 nbd * r7093 /trunk/target/linux/brcm-2.4/patches/013-wl_hdd_pdc202xx.patch: add wl-hdd ide workaround from #272 May 04 22:14:41 i`m in "contact" with linksys atm as the "pptp" support in their firmware is fubar May 04 22:15:00 pptp is so annoying May 04 22:15:07 i know May 04 22:15:13 but May 04 22:15:49 given 2k clients, and the simple question to setup a dialin infrastructure which work with radius, is cheap, and is cheap, and is cheap May 04 22:15:56 and easy to use May 04 22:16:02 whats the choice? May 04 22:16:21 openvpn is not easy to setup May 04 22:16:22 hmmm ixp4xx wants the 2.4 npe microcode, but Intel only offers 2.3.2... May 04 22:17:04 pppoe is out of question as its broadcast traffic May 04 22:17:35 2000 licenses and hw for cisco vpn are really expensive May 04 22:17:43 so i thought to give pptp a shot May 04 22:17:55 given the fact most routers claim to support it May 04 22:18:18 poptop 1.3.4 as a server May 04 22:18:27 and May 04 22:19:11 one has to patch the server to delay the first gre packet and allow chap authentication to be able to support linksys routers May 04 22:19:23 so I mailed them about the problem May 04 22:20:08 and one week later, I get a reply "we tested it, and found it working, details attached", the attachments were 2 screenshots with a router dialed in via pptp, no information about the setup May 04 22:24:25 <[mbm]> common: re:digg article - "As one of the OpenWrt developers, I can't remember a single instance of BrainSlayer contributing back to OpenWrt or working with the OpenWrt developers. Parts of DD-WRT are copied from OpenWrt, but DD-WRT is not based on OpenWrt." May 04 22:24:30 <[mbm]> ;) May 04 22:24:50 :) May 04 22:25:19 k May 04 22:26:13 <[mbm]> if anything I'd say that dd-wrt is still based on sveasoft and the original linksys sources that sveasoft used May 04 22:26:28 <[mbm]> atleast in terms of the general framework May 04 22:27:31 i just had a look on the scary homepage, the "blog", the "download section", and the shop May 04 22:27:53 and cant understand why people use software where the bugtracker is closed May 04 22:28:12 <[mbm]> it's not scary, it's something worse - leet May 04 22:28:56 im surprised they managed to support ixp plattforms May 04 22:29:23 <[mbm]> openwrt kernel May 04 22:36:32 somehow the cool stuff always comes from the same origins May 04 22:36:57 <[mbm]> openwrt never gets the credit it deserves May 04 22:38:02 i really wonder why f.e. linksys does not hire _you_ to create & support their firmwares May 04 22:38:08 Bartman007: it is the npe library now not the driver May 04 22:38:53 http://www.intel.com/design/network/products/npfamily/ixp400_osc.htm May 04 22:39:02 err, it is still the driver May 04 22:39:37 You can get it in the archives May 04 22:40:25 thepeople: heh. I completely missed that, but why does Intel consider 2.3 to be the current version then? May 04 22:41:14 or the download finder May 04 22:41:15 2.3 is the latest microcode, openwrt now uses the linux development enviroment May 04 22:41:20 * [mbm] just amuzed by how openwrt can be the most technically advanced thing available but people would rather talk about web interfaces May 04 22:41:24 which is at 2.4 May 04 22:42:45 because a lot of people don't know the command line and are used to using a gui? May 04 22:44:18 <[mbm]> it's just frustrating though May 04 22:44:20 IPL_ixp400NpeLibrary-2_4.zip is the same thing that openwrt has always used from intel May 04 22:44:31 thepeople: that link you gave me doesn't have anything that appears to fit the message/filename buildroot-ng spits out. May 04 22:44:49 <[mbm]> openwrt doesn't get credit directly, but gets copied into other stuff which then gets credit May 04 22:46:09 I must be blind, but I can't find IPL_ixp400NpeLibrary-2_4.zip. May 04 22:47:02 I grabbed the wrond link May 04 22:47:06 wrong May 04 22:47:40 Bartman007: Its still just got IxNpeMicrocode.c / ixNpeDlImageConverter.c (in it) nothing changed May 04 22:47:46 http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df-external/detail_desc.aspx?ProductID=2100&DwnldID=12954&agr=Y May 04 22:47:50 buildroot-ng says http://www.intel.com/design/network/products/npfamily/ixp400_current.htm, but I don't see it there. May 04 22:48:09 my last link is the correct one May 04 22:48:49 http://www.intel.com/design/network/products/npfamily/ixp400_archives.htm May 04 22:49:41 ... now an account is required even for the non-crypto version? May 04 22:50:22 yea May 04 22:57:37 heh, now Intel's sent me to a redirect loop. this would be amusing if I wasn't in pain. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat May 05 02:59:56 2007
