reya276 | anyone in? | 03:35 |
---|---|---|
reya276 | I forgot the password for my Daughters PC is there anyway that I can reset it | 03:35 |
reya276 | I need to ship it to her but I have to update it first and I can't do that without her password | 03:36 |
mhall119 | !seen tiemonster | 03:39 |
ubuntu-fl | mhall119: tiemonster was last seen in #ubuntu-us-fl 8 hours, 24 minutes, and 10 seconds ago: <tiemonster> festival | 03:39 |
mhall119 | reya276: it's Ubuntu? | 03:40 |
reya276 | yes | 03:40 |
mhall119 | boot from a LiveCD, chroot to your HDD, then run passwd | 03:41 |
reya276 | I even got a log from an IM conversation to see if it is that but that password is for her Ubuntu one acct not her desktop login | 03:41 |
reya276 | chroot? | 03:42 |
reya276 | how do you do that | 03:42 |
mhall119 | from the command line | 03:42 |
mhall119 | say you mount your HDD as /media/Disk | 03:42 |
mhall119 | in your LiveCD session | 03:42 |
mhall119 | you just open the terminal, type "sudo chroot /media/Disk" and it'll give you a command prompt that acts like you booted from the HDD | 03:43 |
mhall119 | running "passwd $daughtersusername" from there will let you reset her password | 03:43 |
reya276 | ok let me try it | 03:44 |
reya276 | ok how do I mount the CD? | 03:45 |
reya276 | thanks lets see if I can get this to work | 03:48 |
mhall119 | boot from the CD | 03:50 |
mhall119 | then mount your harddrive | 03:50 |
reya276 | mount the HD then mount the CD | 03:51 |
mhall119 | no, just boot from the CD to the live session, then mount the HD | 03:51 |
mhall119 | there's nothing you need to do with teh CD other than boot from it | 03:51 |
reya276 | oh when I tried doing sudo chroot /media/Disk from the CLI it said "chroot: cannot change root directory to /media/Disk: no such file or directory | 03:54 |
mhall119 | right, that was an example path | 03:56 |
mhall119 | you'll need to mount the HDD (double-click it in nautilus), then use whatever path it has | 03:57 |
mhall119 | it'll probably be /media/something | 03:57 |
reya276 | ok I did it, thanks | 03:57 |
reya276 | lets see if I can log in as her | 03:57 |
reya276 | cool it worked, thanks | 03:58 |
reya276 | damn this thing does work miracles | 03:59 |
mhall119 | :) | 04:27 |
mhall119 | good night | 04:28 |
reya276 | wait | 04:35 |
reya276 | how can I find a way to run this package/app called kde-config-tablet? | 04:36 |
floridagurl941 | hello | 07:38 |
mhall119 | morning | 12:57 |
dantalizing | morning | 15:39 |
itnet7 | Morning | 15:39 |
dantalizing | itnet7: pm? | 15:40 |
itnet7 | sure | 15:40 |
reya276 | morning everyone | 16:01 |
dantalizing | morning | 16:03 |
dantalizing | so reya276 were you referring to the data-foo tags? | 16:05 |
reya276 | yes, trying to see if it is an option for us to move to HTML5 | 16:06 |
dantalizing | like <tr><td data-foo="Rey" data-bar="276">soemthing</td></tr> | 16:07 |
reya276 | could we use say a dynamic language such as PHP or Coldfusion8, JSP | 16:07 |
reya276 | along with this tag | 16:08 |
dantalizing | sure ... but they are not inherently associated with any database context. | 16:08 |
dantalizing | you can stick whatever you want in those | 16:08 |
dantalizing | there is no such thing as a data tag "insert" or "update" | 16:09 |
dantalizing | in the database sense of those words | 16:09 |
dantalizing | they're literally just tags | 16:09 |
dantalizing | but you can definitely use php or whatever to populate them and use then use those tags for your app data | 16:09 |
crashsystems | hello world | 17:07 |
mhall119 | hello crashsystems | 17:10 |
* crashsystems <3 Firefox Sync :D | 17:13 | |
dantalizing | crashsystems: you're not using a manual sync process with my app?? :( | 18:58 |
crashsystems | dantalizing: No, I'm using Firefox 4 sync between my personal laptop, work computer and Fennec on my phone. | 19:03 |
dantalizing | boo | 19:06 |
dantalizing | install it anyway and give it 5 stars | 19:06 |
crashsystems | your app is for syncing with the default browser's bookmarks isn't it? | 19:09 |
dantalizing | crashsystems: yes | 19:10 |
tiemonster | !ping | 19:22 |
ubuntu-fl | pong | 19:22 |
crashsystems | dantalizing: have you tried Fennec recently? | 19:37 |
dantalizing | crashsystems: i tried beta9 iirc and it blew up on me ... i'm assuming i had some cruft from the previous releases, but didnt really follow up | 19:38 |
dantalizing | sry beta4 | 19:39 |
crashsystems | beta5 is the current version. its good enough now to be my main browser on my phone | 19:41 |
dantalizing | ah maybe beta5 then | 19:41 |
dantalizing | whatever came out a few weeks back | 19:41 |
dantalizing | ow 14MB | 19:42 |
crashsystems | its performance is actually pretty good considering it's size. Also, flash alone is 10mb, so 14MB for a browser is not bad. | 19:54 |
dantalizing | beta4 is in the market and its crashing on me again | 19:55 |
dantalizing | :( | 19:55 |
crashsystems | hah, don't bother with beta4 | 19:56 |
dantalizing | well where's beta5 | 19:56 |
dantalizing | ? | 19:56 |
crashsystems | https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/nightly/latest-mozilla-central-android-r7/en-US/ | 19:56 |
dantalizing | ah | 19:56 |
dantalizing | isnt there an irssi script to save links | 19:57 |
crashsystems | ? | 19:57 |
crashsystems | I don't use irssi | 19:58 |
crashsystems | I would if it had decent spellcheck | 19:58 |
dantalizing | you should write a nice little perl irssi spell check script | 20:02 |
dantalizing | we should do a florida ubuntu hour in CA in may | 20:20 |
dantalizing | zbrown: crashsystems jamalta ^^^^ | 20:20 |
mhall119 | lol | 22:47 |
