dmcglone1 | Hi all | 00:17 |

Unit193 | Hello dmcglone1 | 00:18 |
Cheri703 | hey dmcglone | 00:19 |
dmcglone1 | Whats up Unit193? | 00:19 |
dmcglone1 | Hi Cheri703 | 00:19 |
Unit193 | Not that much... | 00:21 |
Unit193 | you? more posts? | 00:21 |
Unit193 | :) | 00:21 |
dmcglone1 | I typed one up earlier for tomorrow, I already posted one today | 00:22 |
dmcglone1 | are you enjoying them? | 00:22 |
Unit193 | I don't do all that much with PHP.... Going to show my friend that uses it more... | 00:23 |
dmcglone1 | I've been thinking about another one, but don't know what I should cover yet | 00:23 |
dmcglone1 | I see | 00:23 |
dmcglone1 | is your friend learning PHP? | 00:24 |
Unit193 | He has used it in the past for his site... not sure if he still works on it | 00:24 |
Unit193 | I did make a simple script that writes a file with ip/user agent that VNCed into a computer and unlocked it... alone with other random ones | 00:27 |
Unit193 | ip/agent was for tracking, not for the login process | 00:27 |
Cheri703 | I think my desktop has kicked the bucket :( | 00:27 |
dmcglone1 | Unit193 cool | 00:30 |
dmcglone1 | Cheri703: oh no | 00:30 |
Cheri703 | I'm trying to reinstall, but it's having fits | 00:30 |
Cheri703 | :( | 00:30 |
Unit193 | What's crapping out? | 00:31 |
Cheri703 | well, it started being weird last night, and today I was trying to fix it and it uninstalled stuff it shouldn't have :( so now I'm reinstalling. hopefully | 00:32 |
canthus13 | Cheri703: Use a hammer. | 01:25 |
Cheri703 | might... | 01:25 |
Cheri703 | I'd think about replacing it, but have a sick dog, just spent almost $200 today on him, am going to be spending more soon, and that'll still be just figuring out what is going on :( | 01:26 |
canthus13 | Dell uses really crappy thermal compound. :( | 03:03 |
BiosElement | This is awesome | 03:24 |

Unit193 | Cheri703: Did you endup geting SSH/PuTTY all setup? | 04:45 |
Cheri703 | no, got distracted by stupid ipod, sick dog, and desktop crapping out (am working on the reinstall now) :/ | 04:45 |
Unit193 | more issues with that ipod? U10.04? | 04:46 |
Cheri703 | yeah, and yeah | 04:46 |
Cheri703 | I put rockbox on it after it was working fine with the downgraded ipod firmware, and then husband tried it and it crapped out. then he got alllll pissy again, so I RE put the ipod firmware on it, and am going to touch up the music collection before doing anything with it again, because husband blames it on corrupted music files -_- | 04:47 |
Cheri703 | but anyway, I'd still like to | 04:50 |
Cheri703 | right now I'm using a mix of vnc and ssh | 04:50 |
Unit193 | Rockbox didn't work on ipod? that stinks.... | 04:55 |
Cheri703 | well, firmware on that one is touchy apparently, so I think that's it | 04:55 |
Cheri703 | desktop is mostly set back up...so that's good | 05:51 |
Unit193 | Is this the main? | 05:52 |
Cheri703 | yeah | 05:52 |
Cheri703 | :( | 05:52 |
Cheri703 | but it's ok | 05:52 |
Cheri703 | my patented method of partitioning makes it really easy to set back up | 05:53 |
Cheri703 | (once the thing lets me install) | 05:53 |
Unit193 | /home on one and the rest on another? | 05:54 |
Cheri703 | no / on one and storage on an ntfs drive (and symlinks from /home to storage) | 05:54 |
Unit193 | I would do the / on one and /home on another, but I have no idea how much space both woyld need... | 05:58 |
Cheri703 | I tried the /home on one, and I didn't like it | 06:02 |
Cheri703 | THIS IS NOT MY NIGHT *ANGRY FACE* | 06:19 |
Unit193 | Dare I ask? | 06:19 |
Cheri703 | dualboot machine has decided that there is no route to host -_- and I don't know why. was working earlier today before I shut it down, rebooted (headless) and now no route to host...was using it headlessly earlier without issue | 06:20 |
Cheri703 | ohhhh, wait, I might know what it is, hang on | 06:21 |
Cheri703 | ok, nvm :( | 06:23 |
Cheri703 | wow I'm annoyed | 06:23 |
Unit193 | What was it? | 06:24 |
Cheri703 | no, it didn't fix it | 06:24 |
Cheri703 | going to move it back to where the monitor is | 06:24 |
Cheri703 | back in a bit | 06:24 |
Cheri703 | o.O | 06:32 |
Cheri703 | for some reason grub had decided that it didn't want to auto-time-out and choose an os...it was just sitting at grub :( | 06:32 |
Cheri703 | fixed nwo | 06:32 |
Cheri703 | *now | 06:32 |
Unit193 | I'm glad the head is hard, but now my hand hurts.... | 06:38 |
Cheri703 | ? | 06:38 |
Unit193 | This is not working!!! *facepalm* *facepalm* *facepalm* | 06:39 |
Cheri703 | ah, gotcha | 06:39 |
Unit193 | Funny, my hand hurts more then my head :) | 06:40 |
dmcglone | hey all, how do I chomod a directory and all the directories and files inside it? | 17:29 |
dmcglone | chmod that is | 17:29 |
Cheri703 | uh, possibly -r ? | 17:31 |
Cheri703 | hang on, let me look | 17:31 |
Cheri703 | -R or --recursive | 17:31 |
Cheri703 | If I know what command I need, but not the details, I google "*command* manpage ubuntu" and it'll bring up what you need | 17:32 |
dmcglone | Ah | 17:32 |
dmcglone | I knew what command to use, just not the syntax | 17:33 |
dmcglone | david@buddy:~/www/more old stuff$ chmod 777 -R * | 17:33 |
Cheri703 | yup | 17:33 |
Cheri703 | that's why I heart manpages :) | 17:33 |
Cheri703 | when I have no idea what command I need, they're not useful :) | 17:33 |
dmcglone | I was using chmod 777 * | 17:34 |
dmcglone | thinking the * would take care of all the files and folders | 17:34 |
dmcglone | I also mistakingly used -r instead of -R | 17:34 |
dmcglone | so that mistake got me confused | 17:34 |
dmcglone | then I'm like, HUH? | 17:35 |
dmcglone | lol | 17:35 |
Cheri703 | yeah, I always check, some are -r some are -R :/ | 17:35 |
Cheri703 | wish it was consistent | 17:35 |
dmcglone | -r makes everything un-readable | 17:35 |
Cheri703 | ew | 17:36 |
dmcglone | Ok, I gotta take a break. I'm a little burnt out | 17:43 |
canthus13 | Seems kinda silly to make everything world read/write/execute. major security issue there. | 18:04 |
canthus13 | 755 would be much safer. | 18:04 |
dmcglone | hey guys, i'm trying to recover some data on a cd that will not auto mount, so I have to mount it by using the command: david@buddy:~$ sudo mount /dev/cdrom1 /home/david/cd | 19:43 |
dmcglone | mount: block device /dev/sr1 is write-protected, mounting read-only but when I do this, the files are empty and I get an error : error splicing file input/output error | 19:43 |
dmcglone | is there any way I can salvage these files? | 19:43 |
Cheri703 | hmm... | 19:45 |
Cheri703 | you could try it in a windows machine? | 19:45 |
Cheri703 | just to see if it is the cd or your drive | 19:46 |
dmcglone | I tried, it wouldn't auto mount there either | 19:46 |
Cheri703 | hmmm | 19:46 |
Cheri703 | ok | 19:46 |
dmcglone | I got thousands of lines of code I have written on these CD's I don't want to loose them :=( | 19:47 |
Cheri703 | definitely | 19:47 |
Cheri703 | hmm...hang on, let me see what I can find out | 19:48 |
dmcglone | oh lord, I think I've got it | 19:48 |
Cheri703 | yeah? | 19:48 |
dmcglone | let me try first | 19:48 |
dmcglone | whooooo hooooo | 19:49 |
dmcglone | lord have mercy, wrong CD | 19:50 |
dmcglone | I am getting everything off that CD. it's going on my flash drive from now on | 19:50 |
Cheri703 | HA | 19:50 |
dmcglone | Oh jesus thank you. I thought I was gonna have a nervous breakdown | 19:51 |
dmcglone | I'm copying this stuff so fast I'm making a huge mess of my directories | 19:53 |
canthus13 | Wow. Ovaltine makes you gay. http://www.dumpaday.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/ads6.jpg | 19:54 |
Cheri703 | -_- | 19:54 |
Unit193 | dmcglone: if you need it on another one: gddrescue, mondo and safecopy might help | 19:55 |
dmcglone | now I've got to organize all this crap | 19:55 |
dmcglone | looking that up now Unit193, thank you. no way I could have afforded to lose this stuff | 19:56 |
Unit193 | scratch mondo - it's backup stuff | 19:57 |
dmcglone | ok, it still may come in handy :-) | 19:57 |
dmcglone | I have about 40 websites I created on that CD. | 19:58 |
dmcglone | I am just lucky I had 2 copies | 19:58 |
Unit193 | testdisk is one I have used before, it seems really nice! (deleted photos off a camera) | 19:59 |
dmcglone | What I think happened to the first one was the CD was laying on my desk and I laid my hearing aid on it and my hearing aid has a magnet on it | 19:59 |
dmcglone | I wonder if that magnet corrupted the CD | 20:00 |
canthus13 | nah. CDs are optical, not magnetic. | 20:01 |
dmcglone | I always thought a really strong magnet could do that. Hmmm maybe I'm thinking of something else | 20:02 |
canthus13 | Maybe something like an MRI.... | 20:02 |
dmcglone | true | 20:03 |
Cheri703 | not useful for what you were doing, but my paper shredder can chew up cds, it's pretty impressive and fun :D | 20:03 |
dmcglone | LOL | 20:03 |
dmcglone | I like to play frisbee with my cd's | 20:04 |
Cheri703 | nice sparkly plasticky bits :) | 20:04 |
canthus13 | Cheri703: Ours at work has a warning not to shred babies. Or gingerbread men... I'm not sure which. | 20:04 |
Cheri703 | nice | 20:04 |
dmcglone | My nerves are starting to calm down now :-) | 20:13 |
dmcglone | Ok I'm done organizing everything. 81,160 files 1.3GB | 21:10 |
Unit193 | It can't be all code... | 21:11 |
dmcglone | just about | 21:11 |
dmcglone | except pictures and pear libs | 21:11 |
Unit193 | That's one heck of a lot of code... | 21:12 |
dmcglone | it dates back at least 7 years though | 21:12 |
dmcglone | some files probably only have 5 lines of code if not that | 21:13 |
dmcglone | a lot of stuff I need to just throw away | 21:14 |
dmcglone | I found scripts I forgot I had written | 21:17 |
Unit193 | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJixW2u4IvQ | 22:00 |
Unit193 | ^ wow... Llamas with Hats 4 .... | 22:00 |
dmcglone | Cheri703: you buisy? | 22:50 |
Cheri703 | nope, was, but not now :) | 22:50 |
Cheri703 | what can I do for you? | 22:50 |
dmcglone | lol | 22:50 |
dmcglone | I need some help finding 3 dramatic lines that describes lawncare | 22:51 |
dmcglone | something like "beautiful results" | 22:51 |
Cheri703 | hmm...will ponder | 22:51 |
dmcglone | "crafting drama" | 22:51 |
dmcglone | something along those lines | 22:51 |
dmcglone | I can think of "crafting drama" "producing solutions" | 22:53 |
dmcglone | but it doesn't really go with a lawncare company | 22:54 |
Cheri703 | ok, I will contemplate and let you know what I come up with | 22:55 |
dmcglone | cool thanks. I'm trying to figure a way to "soften" the edges on Matt's website because he mentioned he likes things like that | 22:56 |
dmcglone | I was thinking about having the page fade in and then have 3 small banners roll up slowly one at a time with words like "High Expectation" "Greener Lawn" "Beautiful Results" | 22:58 |
Cheri703 | kk | 22:58 |
dmcglone | and with each quote, the background image would change to show images of his work that would pertain to the quote | 22:59 |
dmcglone | Then at the end of the 3 quotes, I'll fade into his logo and the company name | 23:00 |
canthus13 | dmcglone: Sounds kinda like burma shave signs... | 23:42 |
