For using various measurement tools like oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers etc. under Linux there is an amazing tool – sigrok. I was trying to make my cheap chinese logic analyzer LWLA1016 work and this is how I succeeded. Continue reading LWLA1016 in Linux →

my patch in dvblast:

http://git.videolan.org/gitweb.cgi/dvblast.git/?p=dvblast.git;a=commit;h=074dda7448a974d220d366bdb99b10136dc1a3f5

Ubuntu 15.10 contains usbip package too old to work with usbip v2.0 server (e.g. latest raspbian on RasPI) so you need to compile usbip tool from kernel sources.

UPDATE 19. 04. 2016:

You don’t need to go through compiling from source. You may just install package linux-tools-generic:

$ apt-get install linux-tools-generic

This will install precompiled usbip tools into /usr/lib/linux-tools/`uname -r`/:

$ /usr/lib/linux-tools/4.2.0-35-generic/usbip version
usbip (usbip-utils 2.0)

  Extending logical volume drbd to 200.00 GiB
  Logical volume drbd successfully resized

resize with resync:

drbdadm resize [resource]

resize without resync (added clean space):

drbdadm -- --assume-clean resize [resource]

Resize filesystem:

resize2fs /dev/drbd1
