NSLU2 for sale

Hello,

I have spare NSLU2 that I would like to sell, it runs Unslung V2.3R63-uNSLUng-6.10-beta and will come with
an adapter and USB key.
It is de-under-clocked so it runs at 266Mhz.
I am in Canada.

Asking $40, plus shipping (what ever Canada Post will charge).

Please let me know if you are interested.

Thanks
Roman

can't run cgi's under apache2

Hello,

I've got apache2 running on unslung.  I'm trying to activate cgi's.  I added the ScriptAlias line to
httpd.conf, and apache finds the script file in cgi-bin, but when I try to run the script, I get "503 Service
Temporarily Unavailable".  I think I've activated all the necessary modules. I thought maybe it might be
something to do with permissions, since apache2 seems to be very picky about those, but I've tried
changing the file owner to "nobody" and various permission combos to no avail. 

The message from apache says: "server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance
downtime or capacity problems."  It can't be that apache on the slug is just incapable of running cgi's,
could it?  

Anyone have a pointer for me?  

Thanks.

usbhid hid_open failed

Hi All,

I am running SlugOS 5.3BE and an application that reads data from a weather station attached via USB.   When I
try to start the application  I get the following error in syslog:

Jan 21 12:24:01 kncwestj4 wviewd[1195]: <1327166641956> : USBHID: 
hid_open failed! 

I need some hints on how to troubleshoot this issue?  I am wondering if I am missing any libraries?

Thanks.

Minidlna (or other DLNA server) on the Slug

Hey guys,

I've recently fired up my Slug again, with the goal of using it to stream video to my TV, use it as a seedbox, a
print server and just as general network storage (Samba). I thought my TV supported Samba but appearantly
it only supports DLNA. Since I always used Debian on the Slug, that's what I installed. However, I'm having
some trouble installing minidlna from the repositories (insufficient memory I believe) and now I'm
wondering if maybe I shouldn't use Debian anyway. I'm also wondering if my Slug will be powerful enough to
support a DLNA server anyway.

Basically my question is what is the best way to achieve what I want (print server, dlna server, file server
and seedbox (rtorrent I suppose)). Should I pick a different firmware perhaps? Are the other firmwares
lighter then Debian? Some pointers here and there would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Walter

openssl 0.9.8

Any chance someone can build openssl 0.9.8 and add this to the ipkg feeds.

I have been trying to build the latest version of rtmpdump and it won't work with openssl 0.9.7m-5 which is
the latest ipkg version.

Unable to build python2.5

I am trying to update the package py-mercurial for cs08q1armel following the instructions from
http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Optware/AddAPackageToOptware, and i decided to try to build the
package from the original .mk first but i hit a bump with the setup of python2.5.

File "/home/eldamar/tmp/optware/cs08q1armel/host/staging/opt/lib/python2.5/hashlib.py", line
63, in __get_builtin_constructor
    import _sha256

Seems to be missing some file.

Cheers

VLC 0.9.9a cs08q1armel missing http output


Hello,

I'd like to announce a bug to the vlc package maintainer:

ipkg files vlc |grep libaccess_output.*so
/opt/lib/vlc/access_output/libaccess_output_rtmp_plugin.so
/opt/lib/vlc/access_output/libaccess_output_shout_plugin.so
/opt/lib/vlc/access_output/libaccess_output_http_plugin.so
/opt/lib/vlc/access_output/libaccess_output_udp_plugin.so
/opt/lib/vlc/access_output/libaccess_output_file_plugin.so
/opt/lib/vlc/access_output/libaccess_output_dummy_plugin.so

  vlc -l 2>/dev/null |grep access_output
   access_output_dummy   Dummy stream output
   access_output_rtmp    RTMP stream output
   access_output_udp     UDP stream output
   access_output_file    File stream output

I have to use the http output plugin, but it does not seem to get loaded 
by VLC.

The package I used is "cs08q1armel/cross/unstable/vlc_0.9.9a-2_arm.ipk".

I could set up a dev box and fix it myself, but if someone can do it 
faster and has more time than me please help.
Thanks !

verifying swap NSLU2 and SlugOSBE 5.3

Hello.

I just installed SlugOS on my NSLU2.  I (think I) followed the procedure in the document http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/OpenSlug/InitialisingDisks

But when running 'top' or 'df -h' or 'mount' no entries show up with sda2 or swap.

I tried running 'swapon -s' but I got an error saying 'invalid argument'.  I do remember getting an error when
I ran the command 'swapon /dev/sda2' something about "busybox: /dev/sda2/ already configured or not available"

Questions:

1.  Any other commands I can use to verify swap partition is working?
2.  What steps should I redo?  Do I need to go back to fdisk and delete /dev/sda(1-3) and start from scratch?
3.  I already moved my root file system from flash to sda1 will my slug reboot without issue if I remove my USB
pen drive?

TIA-

Alex-
