[00:33] <crweb> shaunm: I got all of the current firmware software, samba NAS support, AND qt4 all into the firmware
[00:33] <crweb> oops
[00:33] <crweb> I got all of the current firmware software, samba NAS support, AND qt4 all into the firmware
[00:33] <crweb> that wasn't to anyone
[00:43] <_3oo3_Homework> hey folks
[00:43] <_3oo3_Homework> where am I exactly? lol
[00:43] <_3oo3_Homework> was looking for a tech related entrepreneurial discussion
[00:47] <_3oo3_Homework> hey iswm
[00:47] <iswm> Hey
[01:00] <_3oo3_Homework> iswm...where am I exactly ^_^
[01:00] <iswm> #neuros would be my guess
[01:02] <_3oo3_Homework> yeah, but whats it for? I'm blind of the context hahah....was looking for a tech-related entrepreneurship subject matter
[01:07] <daurn> ...
[01:07] <daurn> google for neuros
[01:09] <_3oo3_Homework> i see....OSS
[01:10] <_3oo3_Homework> hrm...no mission statement?
[01:10] <daurn> ?
[01:19] <jwu> crweb: I am busy in the 3.1 release sorry to delay the new network support
[04:18] <crweb> Everyone, I'm going to be out for a while. I can be contacted on the ML, or tom@limesg.com
[04:20] <crweb> see you all next meeting probably
[04:24] <chreekat> k
[18:28] <JoeXBorn> hi all
[18:40] <chreekat> JoeBorn: why is it that you have 4 or 5 nicks that seem to be dancing with each other?
[18:40] <chreekat> hehe
[18:40] <chreekat> 1 or 2 waltz in while a couple others waltz out, etc.
[18:40] * JoeBorn  does tango with myself
[18:41] * JoeBorn  breaks into song "and if I had the chance, I'd ask a woman to dance, and not be dancing with myself.."
[18:41] <chreekat> haha
[19:06] <JoeBorn> okey dokey, I've got a cup of coffee, I have wired the laptop and OSD to ethernet and the house is quiet, time to try hacking the duck once again!
[19:09] * JoeBorn  gets distracted quickly by shiny object on floor
[19:17] <JoeBorn> crweb, you around?
[19:17] <JoeBorn> hellwolf, ni hao!
[19:18] <hellwolf> JoeBorn, hi :)
[19:21] <JoeBorn> I've got my vm running, it appears to have two ethernet connections, and then there's the one for the real ethernet port.
[19:35] <JoeBorn> this part of the wiki documentation is pretty sparse
[19:42] <sourcerror> oeBorn: FYI... crweb wrote "Everyone, I'm going to be out for a while. I can be contacted on the ML, or tom@limesg.com. see you all next meeting probably"
[19:42] <sourcerror> JoeBorn: FYI... crweb wrote "Everyone, I'm going to be out for a while. I can be contacted on the ML, or tom@limesg.com. see you all next meeting probably"
[19:46] <JoeBorn> ahh
[19:57] <JoeBorn> sourcerror, do you know the networking stuff on the vm?
[19:59] <sourcerror> I have not tried to use the VM for server stuff (e.g. TFTP server, or NFS server). I had some network connectivity issue and I know the work around for that if you are seeing that.
[20:03] <sourcerror> JoeBorn: what was it you were going to try? is it that you don't have network connectivity from the vm?
[20:06] <JoeBorn> well, let me poke around some more. I just wasnt sure how different the instuctions for NFS etc are for the VM, let me poke around with derobert's guide before I pester you all
[20:07] <Xorlev> a VM can be used if you assign the VM an IP through a bridged network adaptor.
[20:08] <sourcerror> JoeBorn: can you ping a machine on your network from the VM?
[20:09] <sourcerror> ...there is a quick fix if that is your issue.
[20:10] <JoeBorn> I can ping the OSD from the VM
[20:11] <sourcerror> ah. good!
[20:13] <JoeBorn> hi [g2] I'm thinking of setting up that NSLU2
[20:13] <JoeBorn> any tips?
[20:13] <[g2]> JoeBorn what do you want it to do ?
[20:14] <JoeBorn> file server for OSD and file server for outside the house, it's going to be used at my house
[20:14] <JoeBorn> so SMB and FTP or SCP server I guess.
[20:14] <[g2]> you probably just want to run unslung
[20:15] <[g2]> that's the distro that replaces the nslu2 firmware and extens it some
[20:15] <[g2]> like for ssh/scp
[20:15] <[g2]> or you could put debian on it
[20:16] <[g2]> the would work too
[20:16] <[g2]> there's a debian sarge release
[20:16] <JoeBorn> my priorities are simplicity, hassle free setup :)
[20:18] <[g2]> I'd have to check the latest setup for debianslug
[20:18] <[g2]> I don't know if there's a full just flash this image setup or not
[20:25] <JoeBorn> unslug is the one you use/work on, no?
[20:27] <[g2]> JoeBorn I was the champion of OpenSlug the full firmware replacement :)
[20:28] <[g2]> just do the right thing and take over the full box
[20:28] <[g2]> this summer will be 3 years since the nslu2 shipped
[20:29] <[g2]> originally, they were using the busybox 0.62 and old 2.4 kernel and old glibc
[20:32] <JoeBorn> "take over the full box?"
[20:33] <[g2]> yeah
[20:34] <[g2]> I even tested the bootloader replacement
[20:34] <[g2]> then I went and had custom hw made that was soupped up
[20:36] <[g2]> JoeBorn slugos/le (debianslug) is 4.3 is in final qa right now
[20:36] <JoeBorn> no custom hardware for me :)
[20:37] <JoeBorn> I've got enough trouble in my life!
[20:38] <[g2]> :)
[20:39] <JoeBorn> I guess now that I can ping the OSD from the vm, I need to know how
[20:39] <JoeBorn> wiki.neurostechnology.com
[20:40] <JoeBorn> is different in the vm setup
[20:44] <[g2]> JoeBorn I've got a couple old nslu2s lying around
[20:46] <JoeBorn> well, I have one here, we can do a swap out if you're willing :)
[20:47] <[g2]> JoeBorn I'm looking to get rid of my nslu2s :)
[20:47] <[g2]> I've got my own hw and haven't touched them for like 1.5 years
[20:47] <[g2]> the nslu2's that is
[20:47] <JoeBorn> oh, ok.
[20:48] <[g2]> Linksys is shipping/about the ship the NAS200 which is the gigE big brother for $179
[20:48] <[g2]> GigE and 2 user installed SATA drives
[20:50] <[g2]> hmmm... engadget says the street price might be $120
[20:50] <[g2]> doh... scratch that price
[21:02] <JoeBorn> well, I'm confident the NSLU2 will be plenty for my meager needs.
[21:04] <sumasuma> g2: i have kurobox, which holds 750G with fedora on it, i also use it as a linux system too
[21:04] <sumasuma> costs $149
[21:05] <[g2]> sumasuma nod and the network peformance is slow right ?
[21:05] <[g2]> slow == like 12MBs (bytes)
[21:05] <sumasuma> yes
[21:06] <sumasuma> i think that enough for a personal user, not good for corporates
[21:06] <[g2]> I'm SCP'ing at 25-30 MBs now at home
[21:06] <JoeBorn> wait, 12MB is 100mbits, what is fast? gigabit?
[21:07] <[g2]> JoeBorn yeah GigE
[21:07] <sumasuma> g2: which device you use ?
[21:07] <[g2]> sumasuma right now I've got a PC in the garage
[21:08] <[g2]> it's several years old a 2.4 Pentium with a $15 GigE card
[21:08] <sumasuma> i c
[21:08] <[g2]> it streams over the network at 460Mbs
[21:08] <[g2]> 600+ from memory
[21:09] <[g2]> I'll either get something like the NAS200 to replace it if the i/o performance is good, or my HTPC box will do it
[21:09] <sumasuma> all i have is only 100Mbps device, switch, computers etc., even if I have gigE card on the device my computer will not be able to do so, even if computer has, i need to get a gigE switch
[21:09] <[g2]> right gigE switches are like $50 for a 5 port now
[21:10] <[g2]> so from 1 server you could feed 4 pcs at nearly line rate
[21:10] <[g2]> 100mbs
[21:10] <[g2]> HD QAM is around 40Mbs
[21:11] <sumasuma> i just could not find the need of it, i think most of the movies streaming rate is less than 100mbps
[21:11] <[g2]> right it's 40mbs per HD channel
[21:12] <[g2]> so depending on QoS (quality of service) and number of channels it depends
[21:12] <[g2]> Cat 6 is only about a 50% premimum over Cat 5 which is pretty cheap
[21:13] * [g2]  is all setup to stream HD content from OTA / Cable un-encrypted
[21:33] <JoeBorn> I'll say! Certainly more than one channel at a time to boot!
[22:01] <[g2]> JoeBorn I mean I can capture multiple HD channels now and stream back many
[22:03] <JoeBorn> that's neat
[22:03] <JoeBorn> my folks are OTA, and there was a recent NY TImes, I think, article that more and more folks are going that way.
[22:04] <JoeBorn> it's great quality and non encrypted so you can watch where you want.
[22:33] <daurn> hi
