Dec 05 13:42:24 <mib_0dliy3> does anybody know an alternate firmwarew for thecus n1200?
Dec 05 13:42:28 <mib_0dliy3> help please
Dec 05 13:42:54 <mib_0dliy3> or is it possible to flash kamikaze on this device?
Dec 05 13:43:41 <DDave> Did you check out the Table of Hardware ?
Dec 05 13:44:19 <h3sp4wn> The N2100 is the one you can run anything on
Dec 05 13:47:07 <h3sp4wn> http://git.foonas.org/?p=kernel-n1200.git;a=summary if there is a kernel openwrt should be not too hard
Dec 05 13:52:53 <mib_0dliy3> but there are no flashing instructions
Dec 05 13:53:14 <NAiL> because we're not done with the firmware yet perhaps?....
Dec 05 13:53:51 <mib_0dliy3> when will it be ready?
Dec 05 13:53:57 <mib_0dliy3> :(
Dec 05 13:54:02 <NAiL> When it's ready...
Dec 05 13:55:45 <kupesoft> Is /etc/init.d/fstab running before USB drives are recognized a known bug for 8.09? Is it a wontfix?
Dec 05 13:57:13 <mib_xy28xk> are there any flashing instructions for the foonas-em firmware on thecus n1200?
Dec 05 13:59:38 <NAiL> ...
Dec 05 13:59:45 <NAiL> 14:52 < mib_0dliy3> but there are no flashing instructions
Dec 05 14:02:26 <kupesoft> mib_xy28xk: Google wasn't your friend on this one, so what makes you think we will be?
Dec 05 14:02:59 <mib_xy28xk> i read somwere that was flashed
Dec 05 14:03:16 <mib_xy28xk> i know it can be done but i don't know how
Dec 05 14:55:38 <normunds> any tutorials to modify patches for using with wrt
Dec 05 14:59:42 <normunds> any tutorials to modify patches for using with wrt
Dec 05 16:39:03 <MateIn4> any VOX users out there?
Dec 05 16:47:41 <mbizon_> define VOX ?
Dec 05 17:01:04 <MateIn4> NAS box from http://www.voxtechnologies.com/. http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=ENPA-35N-V1K&cat=NET
Dec 05 17:03:03 <NAiL> probably a horrible chipset with too little ram/flash to run linux
Dec 05 17:10:44 <MateIn4> it's a 300MHz arm9 from cortinasystems
Dec 05 17:11:12 <MateIn4> see http://www.cortina-systems.com/products/view/73
Dec 05 17:17:18 <MateIn4> the geeks boxes are an older version of http://voxproducts.com/n1.php#
Dec 05 17:18:23 <MateIn4> I'm looking into doing a port. anyone else interested let me know
Dec 05 17:34:22 <DDave> mhh, can someone help me to find out how much storage this RAM has? Mira P2V64S40ETP-G6 I found the datasheet, 64mb possible? o.0 on a small router..
Dec 05 19:42:19 <CIA-14> juhosg * r13524 /trunk/target/linux/ar71xx/files/drivers/net/ag71xx/ag71xx.h: [ar71xx] ag71xx driver: always flush register writes

Dec 05 21:18:59 <kupesoft> Okay, just looking in to usb storage for brcm-2.4
Dec 05 21:20:02 <kupesoft> /sbin/usb-storage relies on sys to do its' job
Dec 05 21:20:22 <kupesoft> Which rules out working on 2.4
Dec 05 21:20:28 <xMff> there's also /etc/config/fstab
Dec 05 21:20:56 <kupesoft> and /etc/fstab (/etc/config/fstab) won't work, because it's called before kernel modules for usb are inserted
Dec 05 21:20:57 <xMff> but there's the problem that the corresponding init script runs too early for usb media
Dec 05 21:21:21 <kupesoft> xMff:  It is known and reported? Anyone workong in it?
Dec 05 21:21:22 <xMff> you could try to execute it later
Dec 05 21:21:26 <kupesoft> s/workong/working/
Dec 05 21:21:44 <kupesoft> or should I take a stab at a fix
Dec 05 21:21:58 <xMff> kupesoft: that won't hurt
Dec 05 21:22:20 <xMff> ideally /sbin/usb-storage should both support 2.4 and 2.6 and take /etc/config/fstab into account
Dec 05 21:22:49 <kupesoft> currently its broken on 2.6 AND ignored /etc/config/fstab
Dec 05 21:22:52 <kupesoft> It'd kind of a crude script ;p
Dec 05 21:22:58 <kupesoft> (/sbin/usb-storage)
Dec 05 21:23:18 <blogic> xMff: ignore /usb-storage
Dec 05 21:23:25 <blogic> i will merge mountd hopefully this weekend
Dec 05 21:23:47 <xMff> heh okay...
Dec 05 21:23:52 <blogic> but that need autofs4
Dec 05 21:23:58 <blogic> which means no 2.4
Dec 05 21:24:03 <xMff> ...
Dec 05 21:24:05 <blogic> whih i am cool with :)
Dec 05 21:24:44 <kupesoft> Why not fix /etc/config/fstab
Dec 05 21:25:13 <kupesoft> add something like "option usb 1"
Dec 05 21:26:18 <kupesoft> so it's backwards compatible -- and if that flag's set, call another small init script after the usb storage kernel mods are inserted AND wait for discovery of a usb device with that name (timing out liberally)
Dec 05 21:26:47 <kupesoft> good idea for a ticket / patch or not ?
Dec 05 21:28:51 <kupesoft> hmm, you know what, usb kernel mods are inserted before /etc/init.d/fstab runs
Dec 05 21:29:04 <kupesoft> There's just some waiting for the disk to show up
Dec 05 21:29:09 <xMff> but devices take some seconds to become ready
Dec 05 21:29:13 <kupesoft> Yeah
Dec 05 21:29:30 <kupesoft> So what about a best guess in /etc/init.d/fstab about whether to wait for the device to come up
Dec 05 21:29:38 <xMff> blogic: so absolutely no way fpr 2.4 ?
Dec 05 21:29:54 <blogic> nope
Dec 05 21:29:58 <xMff> k
Dec 05 21:30:02 <blogic> well
Dec 05 21:30:10 <blogic> we could add older autofs support :)
Dec 05 21:30:43 <kupesoft> blogic: What about waiting an extra few seconds (say, max 5 or 10) in /etc/init.d/fstab if devices aren't up
Dec 05 21:31:08 <xMff> waiting only if it's detached
Dec 05 21:31:16 <xMff> otherwise it will block start up
Dec 05 21:31:32 <blogic> well
Dec 05 21:31:32 <blogic> &
Dec 05 21:31:38 <xMff> yeah
Dec 05 21:31:39 <kupesoft> Considering the alternatives, disks not being recognized, not such a bad thing tho
Dec 05 21:31:49 <kupesoft> Which is the way it currently works,
Dec 05 21:32:03 <blogic> i would suggest waiting and using & for it
Dec 05 21:32:12 <blogic> unless you wanna boot of one of the devices
Dec 05 21:32:36 <kupesoft> If you wanted to boot off the device /etc/fstab wouldn't be your place to set that up
Dec 05 21:32:40 <xMff> can hotplug handle appearing discs?
Dec 05 21:32:57 <kupesoft> at least on a broadcom device
Dec 05 21:33:30 <blogic> xMff: yes
Dec 05 21:33:53 <blogic> /etc/hotplug.d/block/
Dec 05 21:33:54 <xMff> kupesoft: then the cleanest way would be to just write /etc/fstab with the init script
Dec 05 21:34:11 <xMff> then implement a hotplug handler that reads fstab and mounts once the disk is ready
Dec 05 21:34:29 <kupesoft> perfect
Dec 05 21:34:59 <xMff> you could just use auto and noauto
Dec 05 21:35:06 <xMff> or sth. similar
Dec 05 21:37:57 <kupesoft> Is a /etc/hotplug.d/block/10-fstab-mount look like something that could make its way in to trunk?
Dec 05 21:38:07 <kupesoft> s/Is/Does/
Dec 05 21:38:23 <kupesoft> for brcm-2.4 anyway
Dec 05 21:42:20 <kupesoft> Anyone, anyone, going one, going twice... ;p
Dec 05 21:56:28 <kupesoft> blogic: /etc/hotplug.d/block/ don't work
Dec 05 22:00:53 <blogic> rebooted ?
Dec 05 22:01:02 <blogic> fixed up /etc/hotplug2.rules ?
Dec 05 22:03:18 <iSteve> hmm
Dec 05 22:03:23 <iSteve> blogic: you owe me an email :)
Dec 05 22:05:34 <kupesoft> blogic: You're the original author of /sbin/usb-storage -- approve of me hacking it up to work on 2.4, remove the /mnt/usbdrive support that only works for one disk, and get /etc/config/fstab (or possibly just /etc/fstab) info mount in relevant places
Dec 05 22:06:01 <blogic> whatever
Dec 05 22:06:05 <kupesoft> blogic: The hotplug call for usb-storage looks fine, no need to mess with that
Dec 05 22:06:11 <blogic> i will add mountd next week
Dec 05 22:06:26 <iSteve> blogic: btw, I have some examples as to how I thought mounting could be done solely by hotplug2 rules... you may like to take a peek at'em
Dec 05 22:06:42 <kupesoft> blogic: After you do that, will /sbin/usb-storage be removed ?
Dec 05 22:06:59 <blogic> kupesoft: well
Dec 05 22:07:04 <blogic> if 2.4 needs it ....
Dec 05 22:08:19 <kupesoft> well no point in working on a patch if there's no chance of acceptance :(
Dec 05 22:08:58 <kupesoft> iSteve: can I see les exemples?
Dec 05 22:09:26 <iSteve> https://svn.nomi.cz/svn/isteve/hotplug2/docs/rules/
Dec 05 22:09:46 <blogic> ok
Dec 05 22:10:12 <iSteve> (will only work with current svn / 1.0-alpha)
Dec 05 22:10:21 <blogic> well
Dec 05 22:10:26 <blogic> that is no automount
Dec 05 22:10:30 <blogic> well
Dec 05 22:10:43 <blogic> it moutns automatically yes, but autofs is something different
Dec 05 22:11:05 <kupesoft> iSteve: yeah that looks spot on, KISS
Dec 05 22:11:05 <iSteve> well... I didn't propagate it as autofs:)
Dec 05 22:11:31 <iSteve> anyway, it's just a demo, you guys deploy it as you deem fit of course
Dec 05 22:11:57 <h3sp4wn> mountd is similar to on Solaris or AIX right ?
Dec 05 22:13:32 <blogic> dunno
Dec 05 22:13:45 <h3sp4wn> rpc thing for mounting filesystems
Dec 05 22:13:48 <blogic> mountd mounts on access and after a timeout unmoiunts
Dec 05 22:13:56 <blogic> h3sp4wn: yeah
Dec 05 22:14:01 <blogic> using netlink
Dec 05 22:14:02 <blogic> no
Dec 05 22:14:06 <blogic> pipes
Dec 05 22:15:31 <NAiL> [florian]: Any news on bcm63xx?
Dec 05 22:39:09 <johnrw> noz: ping
