| Maaz | Groot plesier kbmonkey my vriend | 08:44 |
| kbmonkey | oh I totally missed that email Kilos, I'll have a look too | 08:44 |
| Kilos | i am using karmic and maverick and have no probs with permissions on my external | 08:45 |
| kbmonkey | your external is formatted with fat32/ntfs? | 08:46 |
| Kilos | shame and he asked yesterday already and no one has helped him | 08:46 |
| kbmonkey | oh I have seen this before | 08:47 |
| Kilos | ext is ext4 | 08:47 |
| kbmonkey | il do some tests and see about a solution | 08:47 |
| Kilos | i have great fun when boet gets here with his I5 lappy and he cant even see my external but i see everything on his | 08:48 |
| Kilos | he's a win7 man | 08:48 |
| Kilos | hehe | 08:48 |
| kbmonkey | hhe | 08:51 |
| kbmonkey | I compiled WINE the other day, took 20 minutes, and then sound did not work. eish ;p | 08:51 |
| Kilos | i tried wine with an old age of empires on karmic and it crashed my pc and have been scared since then | 08:52 |
| kbmonkey | I play half life 2 on wine no problems :) but since reformat no more games | 08:53 |
| Kilos | but it would help pass the time if i could get it working | 08:53 |
| Kilos | lo sdehaan | 08:53 |
| kbmonkey | oh this is just too good: kbmonkey@netbook:/media/disk$ touch this | 08:53 |
| kbmonkey | touch: cannot touch 'this' | 08:54 |
| Kilos | lol | 08:54 |
| kbmonkey | hammertime! | 08:54 |
| Kilos | yeah when in doubt use a hammer | 08:54 |
| Kilos | the larger the doubt the larger the hammer | 08:55 |
| Kilos | that johan sounds like he knows what he is doing too | 08:57 |
| kbmonkey | ;p | 08:57 |
| kbmonkey | hello sdehaan | 08:58 |
| Kilos | so it will be interesting to see what the answer is | 08:58 |
| kbmonkey | I think I have one | 08:59 |
| kbmonkey | just booting another OS to test | 08:59 |
| scar[w] | good morning Kilos | 09:01 |
| Kilos | hi scar[w] | 09:02 |
| Kilos | johan is sorted but i didnt get the mail that trold him how | 09:08 |
| Kilos | grrr | 09:08 |
| Kilos | told | 09:08 |
| kbmonkey | ah, well i'll post for the sake of completeness in the archives for future searches | 09:09 |
| kbmonkey | as I hate it when looking for answers and an old thread never has an answer ;p | 09:09 |
| Kilos | ya | 09:09 |
| kbmonkey | oh wait there is, eek too convoluted! | 09:10 |
| kbmonkey | I want a Tux hoodie | 09:18 |
| Kilos | hoodie? | 09:18 |
| kbmonkey | yes like a long sleeve jacket with a hoodie, for winter | 09:19 |
| kbmonkey | with Tux embroided on :) | 09:19 |
| Kilos | lol | 09:19 |
| Kilos | nice solution kbmonkey | 09:27 |
| Kilos | whats the 777 for? | 09:28 |
| kbmonkey | 777 is the numerical value of saying "owner +rw, gourps +rw, and o+rw" | 09:30 |
| kbmonkey | so its basically allowing all permissions for all users :) | 09:30 |
| Kilos | ah its not something you gonna use everytime | 09:31 |
| Kilos | once only | 09:31 |
| kbmonkey | and that will also handle future users, or new installations, or other computers too ;) | 09:31 |
| Kilos | well done | 09:31 |
| Kilos | i got it saved in my sudo chown file | 09:32 |
| kbmonkey | it's the one thing I do remember from my Red Hat course I did in 2001 :p | 09:32 |
| Kilos | lol. i dont remember much . have to safe everything and try remember where i saved it | 09:33 |
| Kilos | hehe | 09:33 |
| kbmonkey | kung fu panda is awesome :D | 09:44 |
| Kilos | when you use wine to play a ms game do you have to reboot like with windows | 09:47 |
| kbmonkey | no you don't Kilos, it's more like you run the .exe through wine | 09:50 |
| kbmonkey | wine game.exe | 09:50 |
| Kilos | oh not gui | 09:50 |
| Kilos | from the command line | 09:50 |
| kbmonkey | when you install a game, it puts the game shortcut in your menu under WINE for you | 09:51 |
| Kilos | you dont have an icon you double click to play? | 09:51 |
| kbmonkey | or you can make your own shortcut. | 09:51 |
| bmg505 | anybody here that knows how I can get ipcop not to accept udp 5060 packets at all, I am down with the flu and mtn bussiness is driving me around the bend | 09:51 |
| Kilos | lol. ok i gonna try. | 09:51 |
| bmg505 | hello all | 09:51 |
| Kilos | hi bmg505 | 09:52 |
| kbmonkey | some games don't make a shortcut, that's when you do one yourself. but its easy, ask if you need help :) | 09:52 |
| Kilos | will do ty kbmonkey | 09:52 |
| Kilos | bmg505, are you a ham | 09:52 |
| kbmonkey | I usually go to appdb.winehq.org kilos and look up the game in question and see if there's any special instructions to install | 09:52 |
| Kilos | oh my | 09:53 |
| bmg505 | Kilos, feel more like off mince meat today, but yea I am | 09:53 |
| kbmonkey | sorry bmg505 don't know ipcop | 09:53 |
| Kilos | ah i wondered the ZS6 | 09:54 |
| bmg505 | well its simple iptable, you cannot stop the packet from being delivered or so it looks like | 09:54 |
| bmg505 | *iptables | 09:54 |
| bmg505 | yea you can even spy me on aprs.fi put in zs6lmg-14 will see my car | 09:54 |
| bmg505 | you should wonder about the lmg bit not the zs6 :) | 09:56 |
| Kilos | the ZS6 brought back memories from 40 years ago when i tried to learn morse | 09:58 |
| Kilos | then fell in love and forgot to carry on | 09:58 |
| Kilos | but still have a yaesu ft200 i think it is | 09:59 |
| kbmonkey | I never got a chance to play on a ham radio. but I did do some morse code as a kid for fun | 10:00 |
| Kilos | it would have been so much easier with maaz around | 10:00 |
| Kilos | -- .- .- --.. .. ... .- -.-. .-.. . ...- . .-. -... --- - | 10:01 |
| kbmonkey | ha ha ha. he sure is :) | 10:02 |
| Kilos | lol | 10:02 |
| Kilos | kbmonkey, i got wine1.2 in maverick. do you think thats good enough for the old age of empires 2 | 10:33 |
| Kilos | i see there at the wine hq to register they ask what version of wine and there 8 later versions | 10:33 |
| Kilos | bhut that would be another 20m of downloads | 10:34 |
| kbmonkey | 1.2 should be fine Kilos - http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=99 | 10:35 |
| kbmonkey | it got a gold rating :) | 10:35 |
| Kilos | ok i will register with that and see if i can find what they say about aoe2 | 10:36 |
| Kilos | ty | 10:36 |
| kbmonkey | but as wine goes, its best to try. | 10:36 |
| kbmonkey | you dont have to register to look up info, you register to vote, and submit test reports | 10:37 |
| * Kilos thinks superfly happy you are here now he gets some rest from all my questions | 10:37 | |
| kbmonkey | he he :) | 10:37 |
| Kilos | oh ok i go look for where to query | 10:37 |
| kbmonkey | see here http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=147&iTestingId=63102 | 10:38 |
| Kilos | ok | 10:38 |
| kbmonkey | see the poster comments on what they did. usually disabling compiz and running in a window (ie no full screen) solves little issue | 10:40 |
| Kilos | ok will do ty | 10:40 |
| Kilos | i cant even get it to install | 10:48 |
| Kilos | grrrr | 10:48 |
| kbmonkey | awe :( | 10:49 |
| kbmonkey | its very hit and miss sometimes. | 10:49 |
| Kilos | the one guys says he installed from the cd | 10:49 |
| Kilos | mine just opens and plays the music | 10:50 |
| Kilos | hehe | 10:50 |
| kbmonkey | how did you open it? | 10:56 |
| Kilos | i just put the cd in | 10:59 |
| Kilos | but i tried right clicking the aoe icon but no choice to install | 10:59 |
| Kilos | tried the open with autorun prompt | 11:00 |
| Kilos | didnt work either | 11:00 |
| Kilos | said it cant find the autorun program | 11:00 |
| kbmonkey | try run the setup directly in a terminal | 11:02 |
| kbmonkey | wine /media/path-to-the-cd/setup.exe | 11:02 |
| Kilos | eish | 11:02 |
| Kilos | okpath to cd? | 11:03 |
| Kilos | would that be wine /media/cdrom0/setup.exe | 11:04 |
| kbmonkey | yes try that | 11:05 |
| kbmonkey | but it depends on what the cd is named, and what the setup file is named | 11:05 |
| kbmonkey | so you could use file explorer too, nautilus, if you click on the .exe or right-click and open it with wine | 11:06 |
| Kilos | how you find what the cd is named | 11:06 |
| kbmonkey | see the files on the CD with nautilus? | 11:07 |
| Kilos | i tried the windows program loader there but no good | 11:08 |
| kbmonkey | is that the same as a setup? | 11:09 |
| Kilos | the file is aoesetup.exe | 11:10 |
| Kilos | tells me its not an executable bit | 11:11 |
| kbmonkey | eh, that sounds strange | 11:14 |
| Kilos | lol | 11:14 |
| Kilos | you dunno murphy | 11:14 |
| Kilos | as jy kan sukkel , sal jy | 11:14 |
| kbmonkey | if I had aoe I could try :p | 11:15 |
| Kilos | if i member right on karmic long time ago when i put the cd in it asked if it must install/open with wine | 11:15 |
| Kilos | i keep trying | 11:16 |
| Kilos | to kbmonkey | 11:16 |
| kbmonkey | well I dont know why the exe has to be executable as it runs through wine ;) | 11:16 |
| Kilos | lol | 11:17 |
| Kilos | it doesnt even ask to open with wine | 11:17 |
| kbmonkey | can you right-click the setup and open with... and select wine | 11:17 |
| kbmonkey | see a CDRom is read only and does not support executable bits by default, | 11:18 |
| Kilos | i try | 11:18 |
| kbmonkey | if you cant find wine in the list, expand the custom command box, and type in 'wine' and click okay :) | 11:19 |
| Kilos | looks like i got something | 11:20 |
| Kilos | inswtall q4wine from synaptic | 11:20 |
| kbmonkey | try that, never used q4wine myself | 11:21 |
| Kilos | went open with q4wine and had to next next lots and now it is open same as with windows | 11:21 |
| Kilos | will tick the insatall button now | 11:21 |
| Kilos | its installing | 11:22 |
| Kilos | whew | 11:22 |
| kbmonkey | good hope that goes well! gotta run to shops for now :] | 11:22 |
| Kilos | ty very much | 11:22 |
| Kilos | go safe | 11:23 |
| kbmonkey | q4wine should let you launch the game then I guess | 11:23 |
| superfly | I got both Age of Empires working in WINE | 11:33 |
| kbmonkey | ah well let's see if kilos got his running too superfly | 11:41 |
| Kilos | hiya Kerbero | 12:05 |
| Kilos | bmg505, is the 6 for gauteng | 12:09 |
| Kilos | and 5 for natal | 12:09 |

| queery | oops | 12:39 |
| Kilos | lol | 12:39 |
| === Kilos- is now known as Kilos | ||
| Kilos | grrrr | 13:13 |
| Kilos | ms sucks even with a jug of wine | 13:15 |
| rodemire | Afternoon people. | 14:19 |
| rodemire | I had a hard drive with 3 OSs installed" Windows 7, XP and Ubuntu 10.10. I accessed XP through the Windows 7 boot loader. On some random day, i just couldnt access XP anymore, when i selected it, the machine would restart. And its been doing that since then, (about a month ago). | 14:22 |
| rodemire | I tried "fixmbr" and "fixboot" to get it working but its not working. I then deleted the Windows 7 partition and tried again, but its still not being booted, and its not appearing in grub, when i "updayte-grub" | 14:23 |
| rodemire | How can i get my XP back? | 14:23 |
| kbmonkey | hi rodemire | 14:23 |
| superfly | Ask the Windows IRC channel? | 14:24 |
| kbmonkey | lol | 14:24 |
| kbmonkey | thats nasty ;p | 14:24 |
| superfly | Well, most people in here use Ubuntu, not Windows, and that's because they don't want to use Windows | 14:24 |
| kbmonkey | if update-grub wont detect it, then your xp install is corrupt or broken | 14:24 |
| superfly | in fact, some people in here have not used Windows in years | 14:24 |
| kbmonkey | i stopped using windows last week. for good :) | 14:25 |
| kbmonkey | fixmbr is the windows equivalent of grub, rodemire. as such update-grub will just override whatever fixmbr did | 14:25 |
| superfly | There are plenty of places offering Windows support... It's no doubt easier to get Windows support than Linux support, so why ask the one place that *doesn't* deal with Windows? | 14:26 |
| Kilos | hi rodemire | 14:26 |
| kbmonkey | 10.10 uses grub2 ? | 14:26 |
| Kilos | yip | 14:27 |
| Kilos | rodemire, you can try boot with xp cd and do a recovery | 14:27 |
| rodemire | Kilos: Thats what i tried last night, i use Ubuntu like 90% of the time but i still need a little bit of XP, and i remember from way back that u can fix it from Ubuntu, so my qtn kinda qualifies for this forum right?! | 14:30 |
| kbmonkey | you have a Ubuntu live CD rodemire ? | 14:31 |
| rodemire | Yep, i do. | 14:31 |
| kbmonkey | (or live usb) | 14:31 |
| rodemire | i have both. Live CD and live usb. | 14:31 |
| kbmonkey | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling GRUB2 | 14:31 |
| kbmonkey | if you can boot into the Ubuntu install, you could reinstall grub without a live CD rodemire | 14:32 |
| kbmonkey | do you know how many drives your PC has rodemire ? | 14:33 |
| rodemire | If i reinstall it, will it pick up the XP or do i need to do something first? | 14:34 |
| rodemire | Hard drive = 4, the partitions are too many, dont remember. | 14:34 |
| kbmonkey | eek. okay | 14:34 |
| Kilos | sudo update-grub should see them all | 14:35 |
| rodemire | i'll try reinstalling grub, thanks kbmonkey | 14:35 |
| kbmonkey | the grub reinstall will auto scan other OS's for you | 14:35 |
| Kilos | or was it sudo grub-update | 14:35 |
| kbmonkey | rodemire, boot into the Ubuntu | 14:36 |
| tumbleweed | dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc should re-install grub | 14:36 |
| rodemire | "sudo update-grub" doesnt pick up XP. | 14:36 |
| rodemire | I'll show u screenshots when i get home. | 14:36 |
| Kilos | ah | 14:36 |
| kbmonkey | and you can run from a terminal: sudo grub-install /dev/sdX (where X is your drive where your Ubuntu disk) | 14:36 |
| Kilos | do what tumbleweed says | 14:36 |
| kbmonkey | you can see which disk your / is mounted when you run "df" | 14:37 |
| Kilos | there is also #grub where the grub peeps are | 14:41 |
| tumbleweed | update-grub should pick up windows when you are booted from the ubuntu system. If you have chrooted in from a live CD, it may not | 14:42 |
| kbmonkey | didn't know there a #grub | 14:42 |
| Kilos | yeah i been there too | 14:42 |
| Kilos | had lotsa hassles at one time | 14:43 |
| Kilos | everyone said replace the drive | 14:43 |
| Kilos | and the fault was in the cpu cache | 14:43 |
| kbmonkey | that's very obscure place for boot issues! | 14:44 |
| Kilos | somehow xp had corrupted it | 14:44 |
| kbmonkey | oh, go figure | 14:44 |
| Kilos | took months but now it be kiff again for last few months | 14:44 |
| kbmonkey | no windows OS ever touched my current hardware :p | 14:44 |
| Kilos | thats good | 14:45 |
| Kilos | thats also why i am scared of wine | 14:45 |
| Kilos | game starts up in full screen mode then hangs | 14:45 |
| Kilos | and i cant get to another desktop to try what one of those guys at winehq said | 14:46 |
| kbmonkey | ctrl-alt-backspace? | 14:46 |
| tumbleweed | kbmonkey: that's been disabled for a while now | 14:46 |
| kbmonkey | oh, I usually enable that again | 14:47 |
| Kilos | how do you re enable it kbmonkey | 14:47 |
| kbmonkey | ctrl+alt+f1 to tty and sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart ;) | 14:47 |
| * tumbleweed was only too happy to see it gone, it's easy to type bymistake when you are using ctrl-alt-arrow to change virtual desktop | 14:48 | |
| kbmonkey | your backspace is next to your arrow keys tumbleweed? o.O | 14:48 |
| Kilos | i went ctrl+alt+f1 and said shutdown | 14:48 |
| kbmonkey | you can also ctrl-alt-del from tty | 14:48 |
| Kilos | kbmonkey, i need some way to tell aoe not to use full screen | 14:49 |
| tumbleweed | kbmonkey: I might have started typing before I rieleased ctrl-alt | 14:49 |
| |3o|3 | /etc/init.d/gdm restart!? Thanks kbmonkey, I've always wanted a way to log off when my panels are broken for some or another reason | 14:49 |
| Kilos | something about cfg | 14:49 |
| tumbleweed | kbmonkey: a SAK will also kill X, so there is a keystroke to do it (if you have a sysrq key) | 14:50 |
| kbmonkey | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key#.22Raising_Elephants.22_mnemonic_device | 14:50 |
| kbmonkey | that's the one :) | 14:50 |
| kbmonkey | that will tell your pc to shut down and unmount disks and reboot properly if things get choppy | 14:51 |
| Kilos | i found that sysrq key so its alt+sysrq+what other key? | 15:07 |
| kbmonkey | yes kilos :) | 15:08 |
| kbmonkey | the keys in that wiki link | 15:09 |
| Kilos | lol kbmonkey what other key? anyone | 15:09 |
| Kilos | it just says another key | 15:10 |
| tumbleweed | Kilos: different keys do different things | 15:10 |
| kbmonkey | see that link kilos, there a sequence of keys, and each does its own thing. | 15:11 |
| Kilos | i am reading it now | 15:11 |
| Kilos | oh is the list under action the keys one can use | 15:12 |
| Kilos | all i want to be able to do is open another desktop to then open wine notepad to stop aoe from hanging | 15:14 |
| kbmonkey | does alt+F2 pop up the run dialog Kilos ? | 15:14 |
| Kilos | but aoe fills the whole screen | 15:14 |
| Kilos | i will try it but it not lekker when whole pc hangs | 15:15 |
| kbmonkey | also... | 15:15 |
| Kilos | makes me scared it gonna crash | 15:15 |
| kbmonkey | yes we must find out how to let it run in a window. | 15:15 |
| kbmonkey | i think you run winecfg and in there set an option to run in a virtual desktop | 15:15 |
| Kilos | and it also removed my xchat icon from top panel even though locked and pidgin now opens inna tiny window | 15:16 |
| kbmonkey | it's under the 'graphics' tab | 15:16 |
| kbmonkey | check your screen resolution, it probably change your res | 15:16 |
| Kilos | in wine config kb? | 15:16 |
| kbmonkey | yes kilos. you run winecfg (wine config) | 15:17 |
| Kilos | ok i in graphics now | 15:17 |
| kbmonkey | i beleive if you turn on the virtual desktop, then it will only fill that window, not your whole screen | 15:17 |
| kbmonkey | so aoe will think its full screen, but its just being fooled to run in its own window | 15:17 |
| Kilos | ah lets hope | 15:18 |
| Kilos | must the "allow the window manager to control the windows be unticked | 15:19 |
| kbmonkey | mmm, leave that option as it is for now. | 15:20 |
| Kilos | ok | 15:20 |
| Kilos | hold thumbs | 15:20 |
| kbmonkey | *thumbs* | 15:20 |
| kbmonkey | oh oh | 15:20 |
| Kilos | lol | 15:21 |
| kbmonkey | if it gets stuck, you can always ctrl+alt+F1 to a tty, log in, and run "kilall wine" to just terminate wine, and ctrl+alt+f7(or8) back to X | 15:21 |
| Kilos | ok i write that down first | 15:21 |
| kbmonkey | *killall wine | 15:21 |
| kbmonkey | or killall wineserver | 15:22 |
| Kilos | yay kb | 15:36 |
