17:34.54 | kitno455 | jbowler- have you seen anything weird with terminal on a recent ucslugc? sorry to cross-post |
18:01.38 | kitno455 | i see missing chars when either minicom to serial port, or ssh'd into a slug running current ucslugc |
18:01.45 | kitno455 | both from an fc4 box |
18:02.12 | kitno455 | problem seems primarily related to display, esp. of \r\n |
18:02.42 | kitno455 | the data goes in correctly, but you have to type blind and ignore what is on the screen in vi, for instance |
18:25.07 | jbowler | kitno455: minicom seems totally broken to me |
18:26.06 | jbowler | ssh, no problems I'm aware of but bitbake vi is less than perfect. The term caps need to be vt100 I think - i.e. you must use a vt100 compatible emulator on the remote end. |
18:26.19 | VoodooZ | I've noticed the same issue on openslug-3.1 when editing a file in vi thru my FC4 minicom. |
18:27.22 | kitno455 | i thought it was minicom or my homebuilt serial adapter at first |
18:27.26 | jbowler | minicom is clearly telling the other end that this is a raw vt100 (80x24) - it doesn't do the screen size stuff. |
18:27.34 | kitno455 | but it seems to be vi over ssh as well |
18:28.26 | kitno455 | i could try installing a real vi and see if that helps |
18:28.42 | jbowler | Not for me, vi over ssh does full window (!80x24) fine, vi over minicom only works if the minicom window really is 80x24 |
18:28.53 | kitno455 | weird |
18:29.00 | VoodooZ | yep. Same here. vi over ssh is broken. On deletion of single character especially. |
18:29.07 | kitno455 | yes, yes |
18:29.47 | kitno455 | can we change TERM var on either side of connection, will that help? |
18:30.06 | kitno455 | VoodooZ, i am using fc4 as well. wonder if that is it |
18:30.10 | VoodooZ | openslug-3.1 returns a TERM of vt100 |
18:30.19 | kitno455 | so does ucslugc |
18:30.31 | VoodooZ | I'd be suprised though. |
18:30.45 | VoodooZ | but it's the same over ssh though. |
18:31.03 | kitno455 | with all of rh's locale crap, i am no longer surprised |
18:31.11 | kitno455 | i have been setting LC_ALL=C |
18:31.24 | kitno455 | not on this box, though, lets try it :) |
18:31.38 | VoodooZ | what's LC_ALL again? |
18:32.04 | kitno455 | override locale settings, put them back to old-time unix C |
18:32.17 | kitno455 | capitals before lower case in alpha sort, etc |
18:32.34 | eFfeM | kitno455, are it always the same chars you are missing? |
18:32.53 | kitno455 | dont think so, but maybe- hold on |
18:32.53 | eFfeM | VoodooZ, decided to buy the same audio thing that you have, ordered it yesterday |
18:33.16 | VoodooZ | eFfeM, good! |
18:33.18 | eFfeM | kitno455, if it is it might be a parity issue |
18:33.28 | VoodooZ | eFfeM, btw, I tried rebooting a few times and the sound always works. |
18:34.00 | eFfeM | $ 1 for the device, $ 8.5 for shipping and decided to fork an additional buck for insurance |
18:34.13 | eFfeM | first ebay purchase for me :-) |
18:35.14 | VoodooZ | sound good. |
18:35.30 | VoodooZ | I've been buying stuff from ebay since 2003 and I've never been frauded. |
18:35.38 | eFfeM | VoodooZ, good; forgot to ask if rebooting did keep the device working. Figured out it would from the reports in the wiki. |
18:36.11 | eFfeM | I'm not afraid of fraud, this one definitely sold quite a lot. Also the amount is not dramatical |

18:44.36 | kitno455 | ok, the messed up chars problem seems to me unrelated to which char you are typeing |
18:44.44 | kitno455 | it is more about the sequence of chars |
18:45.49 | eFfeM | hm. nr of bits and nr of start/stop bits ok ? |
18:46.04 | kitno455 | i am using ssh |
18:46.18 | kitno455 | it happens over minicom too |

18:47.03 | kitno455 | if you are against the left margin, and you hit i, it goes into insert mode. then the first char you type prints out twice |
18:48.12 | VoodooZ | yep. Sounds similar to mine. Where I hit x once and it looks like two chars were deleted but if you refresh the screen (page up then down) everything is fine. |
18:52.33 | VoodooZ | kitno455, actually, I don't seem to have the x problem anymore under an ssh session but I do have the i one. |
18:52.46 | VoodooZ | I'd have to test the same thing via minicom tonight from home. |
18:55.16 | eFfeM | oh, seems I've seen this as well (over ssh). is this the busybox vi? that one is pretty lousy, I've installed vim |
18:57.17 | kitno455 | ok, here-s the really weird part- if i shell into the box, then use minicom on it (to the usb serial adapter), minicom has the same problem |
19:00.11 | tkimball | Ooh, thanks for that note, I've been getting fustrated about vi on the slug. *installs* |

19:03.43 | DeadZed | Hello. I know this is a firmware development channel .. but I cannot find a soultion googling. How do I access/configure my Linksys BEFW11S4 when Im using it as a switch? |
19:04.46 | kitno455 | wrong place DeadZed |
19:04.57 | kitno455 | we work on the nslu2 |
19:05.06 | kitno455 | not the BEFW... |
19:05.18 | DeadZed | you guys know about linksys routers prolly :) |
19:05.39 | kitno455 | are you trying to set it up with the default software on it? |
19:05.53 | kitno455 | or with a custom software |
19:07.58 | DeadZed | 3-rd party firmware cannot be used with this model. Im trying to access my router through web-interface ... I was able to do that with 192.168.1.1 when i was using it as a router, but Im using it as a switch now (to bypass NAT - plugged wan cable into lan port) |
19:13.59 | HopsNBarley | i finally got rid of my BEFW's... they just stopped working several times per week... |
19:14.29 | HopsNBarley | that said, you should be able to connect to it even if the internet port is unused. |
19:14.47 | HopsNBarley | i used one of them that way as a wireless long haul. |
19:14.51 | DeadZed | I got it cheap .. they do crash :( ... latest linksys wrt-s are good i think |
19:15.16 | HopsNBarley | i've had no problem with wrt54g v4 (linux) or v5 (the non-linux one) |
19:16.06 | HopsNBarley | we should switch channels, but i'm a chat noob... |
19:16.14 | kitno455 | the config interface only runs on the switch side ports anyway, right- it should make no difference |
19:16.38 | kitno455 | what does the wrt54g v5 run if not linux? |
19:16.44 | DeadZed | HopsNBarley can you remember how you accessed it when using as a switch |
19:17.17 | DeadZed | I think its common knowledge .. I need to enter some correct IP or smth |
19:17.45 | kitno455 | DeadZed, can you disconnect the wanlink, and hit a reset swtich? |
19:17.50 | kitno455 | if it has one |
19:17.56 | kitno455 | then you config as normal |
19:17.59 | HopsNBarley | i dunno. vxworks. |
19:18.11 | kitno455 | i wonder why? |
19:18.19 | kitno455 | lets them use less flash/ram? |
19:18.52 | HopsNBarley | guessing - they got burned on that GPL fiasco. the flash is half the size. |
19:19.18 | HopsNBarley | to reset to factory defaults don't you hold the switch in while you power it up? |
19:19.30 | HopsNBarley | even this should be in the nearly worthless manual (-; |
19:19.50 | DeadZed | yea, yea , nevermind |
19:20.13 | DeadZed | I just thought i could access it the way its set up now |
19:20.30 | HopsNBarley | after factory reset, i think it comes up as 192.168.1.1 on the switch ports. |
19:20.34 | DeadZed | I know how to configure a linksys router |
19:20.55 | DeadZed | the default 192.168.1.1 dont work when its set up as switch |
19:21.18 | *** join/#openslug EvilDevil (n=icechat5@p54A6F129.dip.t-dialin.net) |
19:21.20 | DeadZed | I'd need to reconnec cables and set it as a router again |
19:21.23 | kitno455 | DeadZed, you might be on your own |
19:21.27 | kitno455 | no- |
19:21.29 | DeadZed | :) |
19:21.31 | DeadZed | thanks |
19:21.41 | kitno455 | dont bother hooking up the wan link to the outside |
19:21.44 | HopsNBarley | that doesn't make any sense - there isn't a software setting that says "switch" or "router". it is simultaneously both. |
19:21.49 | kitno455 | right |
19:22.07 | kitno455 | have you turned off dhcp on the machine? |
19:22.29 | kitno455 | if so, just change your desktop machine to be on the ipnetwork that it used to give dhcp for |
19:22.36 | kitno455 | and connect to its address! |
19:22.47 | HopsNBarley | did you reset the lan side address? You might try using a linux box and see if it emits any packets when it boots -that could help you recover the address. you could also ping various broadcast addresses and see if it appears in the arp cache. |
19:23.17 | kitno455 | if the lan side address used to be 192.168.1.1, i bet it still is! |
19:23.32 | kitno455 | just change your desktop machine to .2, and try it |
19:23.33 | DeadZed | HopsNBarley I needed to bypass NAT and dhcp on this BEFW11S4 and google told me that linksys can be used as switch if I plug wan into one of the lan ports - it does work :) .. cause I need have unforwarded access to internet |
19:24.00 | kitno455 | sure- sure but you did not really cut off the router function |
19:24.05 | kitno455 | its still there |
19:24.39 | kitno455 | just set your desktop to an ip on the same subnet as the machine used to use, and connect to it |
19:25.04 | HopsNBarley | yes, that can work, but only if your upstream device knows about the multiple addresses you will be using. this would not be the norm for standard DSL/cable modem (although available as an option) |
19:25.57 | kitno455 | i wonder if it is sending dhcp out of your wan port :) |
19:26.32 | HopsNBarley | think of it this way - your upstream router is at X.1, you'll need to set your switch at X.2, and your devices at X.3, 4, ... |
19:27.02 | HopsNBarley | it probably is, but that doesn't matter. |
19:28.08 | kitno455 | HopsNBarley, i bet his switch lan ip is not on the subnet from his isp. i bet its on the old rfc1918 addr |
19:28.46 | kitno455 | i once took over a hotel guest network by bringing in my own dhcp server... |
19:28.54 | DeadZed | ok, I have d-link (192.168.0.1, 255.255.255.0) (router 1 - connected to internet), linksys (was 192.168.1.1, 255.255.255.0)(router 2 - connected to d-link) (now using it as switch) |
19:29.06 | kitno455 | ok |
19:29.31 | HopsNBarley | the 0.1 is the lan side dlink? |
19:29.33 | kitno455 | DeadZed, now change th ip on your desktop to be on the 192.168.1 network, and connect to the .1 |
19:29.47 | DeadZed | wait |
19:31.03 | DeadZed | so I'll change my current desktop gateway address from 192.168.0.1 (d-link) to 192.168.1.1 (linksys)? |
19:31.39 | DeadZed | I think I'll become disconnected |
19:31.43 | kitno455 | not your gateway, your IP! |
19:31.46 | HopsNBarley | the LAN side dlink, linksys address, and desktop must all be in the same network! |
19:31.48 | kitno455 | yes, you will |
19:31.57 | kitno455 | HopsNBarley, not tru |
19:32.16 | kitno455 | the linksys can be off on its own, it wont hurt anything |
19:32.23 | kitno455 | you just cant reach it to config it |
19:32.27 | HopsNBarley | if you want them to talk to each other without proxy arp it's true... |
19:32.35 | HopsNBarley | but wasn't that the question to start? |
19:32.47 | kitno455 | the question was how do i config |
19:32.55 | kitno455 | now that i cant reach it :) |
19:33.08 | DeadZed | yea, cause I'd want to config wireless on that linksys |
19:33.14 | HopsNBarley | of course, he can use it as a dumb switch... ah, i misunderstood. |
19:33.21 | kitno455 | right- now you see |
19:33.45 | kitno455 | DeadZed, if you want to config the linksys, your pc must be on the same subnet |
19:33.52 | HopsNBarley | no - then i did understand - you need config acess to it, so they all must be on the same IP network. |
19:34.06 | DeadZed | I need to use it as a switch , cause if I use it as a router, I cannot accept incoming connections (I think) |
19:34.07 | kitno455 | you must change the ip of your machine to be 192.168.1.2 |
19:34.19 | kitno455 | ITS ONLY TEMPORARY |
19:34.40 | HopsNBarley | we still don't have enough info - is the LAN address of the dlink 0.1? |
19:35.03 | kitno455 | i think it must be a router to use the wireless? |
19:35.15 | kitno455 | or does it act as a bridge? |
19:35.21 | HopsNBarley | i didn't use it that way - think of the wireless as an extention of the switch. |
19:35.41 | kitno455 | ok |
19:35.44 | DeadZed | umm d-link is 192.168.0.1 .. wait I'll thy what kitno455 suggested |
19:36.08 | kitno455 | move it to be on the dlink subnet when you get acess to it |
19:36.19 | kitno455 | then you wont have to do this stupid thing again |
19:36.38 | kitno455 | better yet- trash all this low grade consumer crap, and get somehting that doesnt suck :) |
19:36.41 | kitno455 | hahah |
19:37.38 | HopsNBarley | then kitno is right - 1.2 should get you TEMP. config access to the linksys at 1.1 - though you will loose your internet connection to do so. be sure just one of the devices is your DHCP server! |
19:38.47 | eFfeM | for some reason I still have problems with wget: |
19:38.48 | eFfeM | Connecting to ipkg.nslu2-linux.org[66.159.209.6]:80... failed: Address family not supported by protocol. |

19:40.59 | eFfeM | HopsNBarley, will try that (actually I changed config.h but probably that was not enough) |
19:41.27 | HopsNBarley | this was in the 1.9.1 version. there was talk of a fix, and i haven't done a pull to see yet.... |
19:41.36 | DeadZed-- | I dont know ANUTHING about routers or netwotworks really, so thanks guys |
19:42.26 | HopsNBarley | DeadZed: no problem, happy to help. Did you turn off the DHCP in the linksys, or did you fix it's address to 192.168.0.X ??? |
19:42.43 | eFfeM | HopsNBarley, I did an update yesterday, and it was not there. |
19:42.53 | DeadZed-- | I didnt configure it yet |
19:43.00 | HopsNBarley | eFfeM: thanks - that'll save me some time. |
19:43.18 | DeadZed-- | so now that Im using it as a switch I should turn off dhcp and nat in it? |
19:43.19 | eFfeM | also tried 1.10.2, but it complains out-of-the-box about a file missing (aclocal.m4 or something like that) |
19:43.39 | eFfeM | HopsNBarley, my pleasure, we're here to help eachother isn't it? |
19:43.47 | HopsNBarley | DeadZed: NAT doesn't matter - that's on the WAN port. |
19:43.57 | DeadZed-- | I've seen some REALLY complicated setups and howtos with several routers on the network, but for now I'll just use one router as a switch |
19:44.25 | HopsNBarley | DeadZed: on DHCP - it depends - who do you want to serve DHCP - the Dlink or the Linksys - there could be good reasons for either - my point is make sure it's just ONE of them! |
19:44.58 | HopsNBarley | DeadZed: and also that the linksys ison the right network for future config work (-; |
19:45.35 | HopsNBarley | eFfeM: betcha' |
19:46.34 | DeadZed-- | what if i put both routers on same subnet, will d-link boxes be able to see linksys boxes? |
19:46.47 | DeadZed-- | nevermind, its all too complicated |
19:47.14 | kitno455 | DeadZed--, yes |
19:47.17 | HopsNBarley | that's not complicated - these are just IP devices - and sure you could do that. |
19:47.25 | kitno455 | but they cant do anything to each other |
19:47.51 | eFfeM | HopsNBarley, commented out the --enable-ipv6 and a force-reinstall and it started working again; thanks |
19:47.54 | kitno455 | just give everything under the sun an ip on your main nat'd network |
19:48.08 | kitno455 | only have one dhcp server, and you are set |
19:48.10 | DeadZed-- | do you know a good page I should read to educate myself about multiple router cofigs and networks? |
19:48.17 | kitno455 | haha |
19:48.33 | kitno455 | anyone who is capable of writing such a page would not build such a network :) |
19:48.38 | HopsNBarley | uh, any good IP introduction. there must be thousands of them. |
19:49.01 | kitno455 | kidding- HopsNBarley is right |
19:49.30 | eFfeM | eFfeMnet is one router, one router as switch only with wifi and one switch, couldn't get it all connected otherwise |
19:49.41 | HopsNBarley | it's really all pretty simple once you grasp ARP, that an address must always be paired with a mask, and the fundamental IP routing algortihm. |

19:50.25 | DeadZed-- | which devices? |
19:50.36 | HopsNBarley | Hops net is 3 wireless AP's, 2 switches, linux firewall, 5 or so computers |

19:51.29 | eFfeM | 3 computers, 1 laptop, 2 digital media adapters, 1 stereo set suppoting internet radio and of course a slug (oh that makes 8) |
19:51.59 | kitno455 | i'm at the office, the net here is pretty good. the net at home is a linux box with a modem! |
19:52.20 | DeadZed-- | dial-uP? |
19:53.27 | HopsNBarley | eFfeM - do you know how to compile natively? I set up the tool chain and that works. but apache "do_package" fails with "Couldn't find shared library provider for <various libraries>" |
19:54.01 | DeadZed-- | do you guys develop this firmware for free? |
19:54.07 | HopsNBarley | should you even be running bitbake on the slug natively? |
19:54.11 | kitno455 | DeadZed--, yeap- i live in the boondocks |
19:54.19 | caplink811_log | wow, a travel to the past |
19:54.33 | kitno455 | no cable, no dsl |
19:54.40 | DeadZed-- | are you all on linuxboxes somewhere in new york? |
19:54.45 | tkimball | Hmm. Two cable modems (roommmate is paying for his), my Netgear switch supports a desktop and two notebooks. His Linksys (first version) supports a desktop, two ReplayTV, and an occasional 'floater' PC of some sort or other. |
19:54.55 | kitno455 | out in the country |
19:54.57 | HopsNBarley | dude - a modem? actually, i'm in the sticks too, and just made the jump last year when dsl finally came in. |
19:55.05 | kitno455 | no dsl here. |
19:55.13 | HopsNBarley | how about EVDO? |
19:55.15 | kitno455 | i am thinking about direcway |
19:55.45 | HopsNBarley | on verizon i think you get unlimited 9pm-7am. |
19:55.52 | tkimball | Oh, correction. Mine is a desktop, slug, and two notebooks. ;) |
19:57.10 | DeadZed-- | Whats OpenSlug firmware like? is it like ordinary linux with unix tree etc, except less files or smth |
19:57.11 | kitno455 | never looked at it closely |
19:57.31 | kitno455 | DeadZed--, it is a full-featured linux box |
19:57.45 | DeadZed-- | can I install debian on it then :) |
19:57.47 | kitno455 | you can install packages for many apps |
19:57.48 | kitno455 | yes |
19:57.51 | kitno455 | you can |
19:57.53 | DeadZed-- | really :O |
19:57.56 | kitno455 | yes |
19:57.59 | kitno455 | reallyu |
19:58.06 | kitno455 | s/reallyu/really/ |
19:59.54 | eFfeM | HopsNBarley, i compile natively if needed but without bb. i've never set up a native toolchain, just an ipkg install gcc (and g++ and probably also some friends like gdb) |
20:00.13 | DeadZed-- | ahaa http://www.tomsnetworking.com/Sections-article85-page3.php |
20:00.49 | eFfeM | for apache you might need to build those missing libs first (maybe adding them in the RDEPENDS in the .bb file also helps) |
20:01.19 | eFfeM | HopsNBarley, there are two things I compile natively |
20:01.38 | eFfeM | one are a few proggies I've developed myself (e.g. my recording daemon) |
20:02.01 | eFfeM | the other are some progrs that are not available |
20:02.14 | eFfeM | especially when I started and did not know anything about bb |
20:02.25 | tkimball | eFfeM: How well has that worked so far, doing native compile? And do they use glib? |
20:03.06 | *** part/#openslug DeadZed-- (n=deadzed@80-235-39-27-dsl.mus.estpak.ee) |
20:03.07 | eFfeM | tkimball, native compile works fine and at some point I even compiled php natively. No idea on glib |
20:03.29 | eFfeM | or do you mean glibc? |
20:03.36 | HopsNBarley | i misphrased my question. I should have "how to I package natively". The libraries bitbake is complaining about are infact installed. |
20:03.36 | tkimball | I'm curious, since every attempt of an irssi cross-compile has failed. |
20:03.41 | tkimball | glibc I think yes. |
20:04.24 | eFfeM | yeah that is on my sys |
20:04.38 | eFfeM | just tried ipkg list | wc |
20:04.43 | eFfeM | guess what: 4357 |
20:04.53 | eFfeM | HopsNBarley, have never done that |
20:05.07 | tkimball | The ipkg irssi or your own compile? ipkg has perl etc turned off, I want them enabled. |
20:05.11 | HopsNBarley | dammmmmn. |
20:05.55 | eFfeM | tkimball, was that to me. Don't think I use irssi (actually no idea what it is ...) |
20:06.27 | tkimball | eFfeM: irssi is IRC client. What I'm using from the slug today to reach here. :) |

20:19.51 | eFfeM | tkimball, understood, I use xchat on my pc to connect to miau running on my slug |
20:20.16 | eFfeM | took some time ro respond as I created a reboot-neede situation :-) |
20:21.18 | tkimball | I'd love to use a BNC, but work requires connections via http/https only now. So I'm thinking of generating an irssi module. |
20:21.57 | tkimball | Problem of course is that irssi on slugos is not compiled with openssl, perl, or proxy. |

20:32.33 | kitno455 | EvilDevil[A], a volmeter or scope while its plugged in |
20:32.40 | kitno455 | s/vol/volt/ |
20:33.11 | EvilDevil[A] | i got 4 pins: black, blue, red, white.... black<-> blue (gnd on black) gives 0.07 volts, black <-> white 3.26 volts |
20:33.41 | EvilDevil[A] | black <-> red: 0 volt |
20:34.06 | kitno455 | try opening minicom to it, and type a whole bunch |
20:34.16 | kitno455 | while looking at black to blue |
20:34.24 | kitno455 | with the meter |
20:34.36 | kitno455 | if the voltage jumps around, that is tx |
20:34.44 | kitno455 | do the same with the others |
20:34.57 | EvilDevil[A] | ok |
20:35.16 | kitno455 | i bet white is 3.3v power |
20:35.43 | kitno455 | i bet white is 3.3v and red/blue is rx/tx |
20:35.49 | kitno455 | though that could be tx/rx |
20:36.40 | EvilDevil[A] | black <-> red 0.8 volts ... |
20:36.55 | kitno455 | does it jump around? |
20:37.04 | kitno455 | while you type |
20:37.22 | EvilDevil[A] | no clue.. tried hyperterminal, but it crashed *??* |
20:37.32 | kitno455 | hahah get a real os :) |
20:37.55 | EvilDevil[A] | that would mean that i have to change my notebook |
20:37.56 | kitno455 | can you install minicom on your slug? |
20:38.04 | kitno455 | and ssh into your slug? |
20:38.50 | EvilDevil[A] | that would mean that i have to go to the floor.... :-/ |
20:38.50 | kitno455 | i have run minicom from slug over usbserial connector, it works ok, not great, but good enough |
20:39.07 | kitno455 | just for testing |
20:39.43 | kitno455 | only other option is to cut open the part where the chip is, and trace the pinout |
20:39.58 | kitno455 | or get a friend with a scope and a linux box :) |
20:40.59 | EvilDevil[A] | i got a linux box... well.. i got 4 of them |

23:22.59 | NAiL | You could build the almost-3.x from HEAD |
