ubotuIn #kubuntu, Networkgamer said: !ps3cardreaders is <reply> In ubuntu,in its beta,it started with kernel 2.6.11,and whenever it accessed the media card readers it flooded the console with errors pertaining to it,preventing boot.since then,it has been patched so ubuntu can boot on the ps3,albeit you can not access the media card readers.take note that in dmesg it mentions devices sdd and sde,which are the medai card readers,yet after boot,they dont exist10:54

monsocoso what's the deal getting kicked from #ubuntu08:33
monsoco?08:33
naliothmonsoco: depends on where you ended up08:35
monsoco#ubuntu-read-topic08:36
mneptokmonsoco: you are susceptible to a known bug in router firmware08:36
naliothmonsoco: have you followed the instructions in that channels topic?08:36
mneptokplease reconnect to Freenode on port 800108:36
monsocoi did08:36
naliothmonsoco: ok, we'll test08:37
monsocowhat's the deal with this router bug?  what router? 08:37
Pici!dcc08:37
naliothok, monsoco you can join #ubuntu now and thanks for your patience08:37
naliothmonsoco: /msg ubotu exploit08:37
ubotuThere are people around who think it is funny to abuse a bug in certain routers by sending invalid DCC commands. When bitten by this bug ops in #ubuntu remove users so they are no longer targets. To fix it have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit08:38
monsocoyeah i looked at that08:38
monsocowhat routers though? mine? my campus?08:38
naliothmonsoco: any that use that crapppy firmware08:38
monsocois there any way i can figure out which is?08:39
mneptokmonsoco: remove your router from the mix. connect directly mith your machine, /join a client here on 6667 and ask to be tested. if you pass, your router has the crap firmware. if you fail, your router might be fine.08:40
mneptoks/mith/with/08:41
monsocoif my router is behind a firewall could it still be my router? ... i have an xubuntu box in between my internet and my router08:42
monsocoim running firestarter on xubuntu08:42
poningruyes it could still be your router08:43
monsocohow?08:44
naliothmonsoco: what screws people up, is that sometimes the firmware update doesn't fix a thing08:45
monsocohmm i still don't really understand what the problem is, even though connecting to 8001 fixes it...what is it about 8001 that fixes this issue?08:49
nalioth8001 is not an industry standard irc port08:57
ompaulmonsoco, the router does not expect that protocol to travel over that port so the stupid broken firmware makes it die09:04
ompaulmonsoco, sorry I should restate that09:04
ompaulmonsoco, the router does not expect that protocol to travel over that port so the stupid broken firmware that makes it die on the 6667+-10 does not see the packet and dies09:05
ompaulmonsoco, and does not die (exclude last word last line)09:05
=== ompaul proclaims himself shattered
=== nalioth gets a firehose and sprays industrial glue all over ompaul
monsocoim confused 09:06
ompaulmonsoco, there is a broken firewall thing in the router- when you don't go over the port it expects then it works09:06
ompaulmonsoco, so it sits there thinking I must do X when it sees the dcc and is it broken, so it actually kills the connection, when you are on 8001 it knows nothing of the packets09:07
ompaulmonsoco, so it does not disconnect09:07
monsocoi see09:08
ompaulmonsoco, that is it in a nutshell09:08
ompaulmonsoco, this is where free software wins, we could code the problem out of existence ourselves .. stupid people think that the firmware is a "trade secret" 09:09
ompaulit is in its eyeballs09:09
monsocoso you can't replicate the issue on 8001 since my router doesn't think anything of that port, but it has programmed info about 6667 that causes it to behave in certain ways which allows the disconnect issue09:09
ompaulyes09:09
monsocoah09:09
ompaulmonsoco, if I am not very clear is it because I am exhausted I have had a long day most of it fruitless09:10
=== nalioth sends ompaul a fruit basket and a bottle of the dew
ompaulmonsoco, cracked a problem in 10 hours that should have taken 5 minutes if I had been thinking straight to start with09:10
ompaulnalioth, thanks but the glue will make the fruit sticky :)09:11
monsocono that's ok, i don't understand a lot of the background with this stuff so that makes it hard to explain to me09:11
=== ompaul drinks the due
ompauldew even09:11
=== ompaul is tired :)
monsocothanks for the explanation, even if it took a few tries, i appreciate the follow-through ;)09:12
ompaulmonsoco, when brain is sharper then you can get it one :-) 09:12
=== ompaul has a chat with his internal comms room
mneptokrouter pixies broke my web09:30
ompaulmneptok, there are only router gremlins no pixies :)09:36
mneptokit depends on the brand. the Emerald City Routasaurus WR42 has pixies. and a midsummer night sparks, packets, and elf chunks shower.09:43
