Hope you all have a good night, it’s gonna be better than mine as i’ll be driving home because finish at midnight *sighs*

My DIY outdoor webcam is still going strong despite the sub zero temperatures and snow.

As my slug projects seem to be getting more and more ambitious i’ve decided to create a new category titled ‘NSLU2’ to keep all relevant posts in. 

More issues with the slug as it’s now decided that the one cam I want to use on it will only work after being plugged in AFTER it’s booted and refuses to work when plugged in during boot RAHHHH!!!!

I’ve been trying for nearly 2 days to get my usb mobile broadband stick working with linux. After MUCH googling it looks like i’ll need a different model to ensure compatability.

Oh dear just had a ‘Hmm that sounds like a good project idea’ basically now my slug is more or less redundant i’m gonna try to get it configured for wireless internet webcam streaming. Should be interesting.

I’ve added a 160gb HDD to by NSLU2 and hacked it and installed debian. Now the fun begins and maybe a small sub website as well 😉

Yup my new toy turned up yesterday, it’s a linksys NSLU2 network storage link. "But that doesn’t sound very exciting" I hear you cry, you don’t think i’m going to leave it running factory stock firmware/software do you???? Next thing I need to get is a 2.5" external usb drive.

I think my modding might go a bit further as i’ve just found a shop that’s probably going to be dangerous to my wallet, you know, the oo I like that oo and that oo i’ll have that as well type one.

Won the new computer toy I wanted last night so will hopefully have it soon 🙂
