Yes 0.2.1 root@bathtub:2996 /0 /usr/home/math/udl/njbfs>cat RELEASE.NOTES This is release 0.3 of njbfs for Linux kernel 2.4.x :) oh one thing is when compiling I got an error - linux/kernel.h is deprecated, and slab.h should be used (in nomad.c) - I changed the include file to that instead, should I not do that? (having the right malloc seems important, no? :) root@bathtub:3008 /0 /d/nomad/tracks>ls ucn* ucnl - 01_-_Unkle_-_Guns_Blazing_(Drums_Of_Death_Part_1).mp3 root@bathtub:3009 /0 /d/nomad/tracks>rm ucnl\ -\ 01_-_Unkle_-_Guns_Blazing_\(Drums_Of_Death_Part_1\).mp3 root@bathtub:3010 /0 /d/nomad/tracks>ls ucnl\ -\ 01_-_Unkle_-_Guns_Blazing_\(Drums_Of_Death_Part_1\).mp3 ucnl - 01_-_Unkle_-_Guns_Blazing_(Drums_Of_Death_Part_1).mp3 do I need to be passing the "s to the command as well as in the copying files example? (I tried that and that doenst work either): > rm \"ucnl - 01_-_Unkle_-_Guns_Blazing_\(Drums_Of_Death_Part_1\).mp3\" when doing this, on the console I get njb_usb.c: TODO: usb delete does that mean a feature is unimplimented or just a command to be passed to the nomad? > You should be able to delete tracks however with no problem. Copying > tracks onto the NJB does require some name mangling, the Perl script > should be able to help you with that. cool. copying files does seem to work actually now that I hit -more- in the README (for some reason I didnt see the bottom of the file... :) and read how to do it... oops was copying a very large file (dont know why i picked that) and it seems to be taking an extremely long time (over 6-7 minutes for a 69 meg file) - now the console says "usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout" - is that NJBFS or the USB modules sayign that? the copy finally completed... but now I dont see the file uploaded in the tracks dir ... >cp /win/media/mp3/baseck.mp3 "Baseck Darkmatter Soundsystem - untitled mix.mp3,size=69687296" >ls Ba* Ba* ... figuring its some caching error, and since all the dirs are equivalent, I went into albums, and its listed there :) going back to tracks and ls Ba* still not there - is there a way I can force sync the tracks dir? umounting and remounting the tracks dir works of course. However, all this is moot because now I can get files onto it, which is all I wanted! :) thanks so much! > All the directories do currently list tracks (feature :). We're working on > getting the rest of it setup. Great. I really love this module, thanks for the hard work! :) Is there some way you guys could allow a timeout for njbfs for the nomad so that it doenst power itself off? issuing commands to it (delete, ls?) are pretty fatal if its not powered on. It powered off just at the start of a command and the command just returned nothing, I powered it back on and tried ls again and the kernel crashed. Issuing NOP or equivalent nomad commands to it to 'simulate' a timeout of 10 or 15 minutes would be good. I'd even be happy with njbfs never allowing the nomad to timeout while its attached, if thats possible (yes I'd pay in batteries, but it should be plugged into the wall). I spose having it on for weeks could be bad too, perhaps an hour timeout or something, not sure if thats possible. Minor feature request for later - I run this all off my laptop which I can reboot as much as I want (unlike my desktop which is a more costly reboot) and with ext3, its fast ;) thanks again! /kc > > - Danish > > > On Mon, 18 Feb 2002, Ben Osheroff wrote: > > > I think the first bug regarding the dirs was an unimplemented feature we > > let slip into the release documentation.
