| bigcalm | I've been following the very basic set-up from http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/vpn.openvpn | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| bigcalm | Will possibly tweak it tomorrow afternoon when I get home | 00:01 |
| bigcalm | But I have also some LEGO models to build - Snowspeeder (Hoth), AT-AT and Super Star Destroyer | 00:02 |
| bigcalm | No idea where I'm going to put the SSD once it's built | 00:02 |
| daftykins | bigcalm: got IP forwarding enabled on the router? | 00:03 |
| daftykins | mind you that should be default really | 00:04 |
| bigcalm | 11% remaining on my laptop (have had the phone USB teathered). Guess I should switch to dead wood book and start Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (1st time for everything) | 00:05 |
| daftykins | heh | 00:05 |
| bigcalm | toodles | 00:06 |
| daftykins | enjoy o/ | 00:07 |

| map | whos awake? | 08:48 |
| map | SOUTH LONDON for life:D | 08:48 |
| map | YET IM a spurs fan | 08:48 |
| zmoylan-pi | alive if not awake... | 08:53 |
| brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 10:19 |
| Nathan2111 | How do you make a new directory | 11:22 |
| brobostigon | mkdir | 11:35 |
| zmoylan-pi | never hangs around long enough for the answer | 11:51 |
| brobostigon | yep. | 12:06 |
| zmoylan-pi | some bot that waits for his ip to show up and bombard him with the info he was looking for... :-p | 12:11 |
| awilkins | firmly in the category of question that can be solved by saying "tap alt and type what you want" | 12:25 |
| awilkins | Although for some reason if you tap alt in nautilus and type "new directory" it's the third thing in the list... does the alt-menu have a set of aliases? | 12:27 |
| awilkins | (the menu item is "New Folder" - but I imagine most of us think "Directory" | 12:27 |
| awilkins | Aliases for common nouns to improve the matches in the alt-menu would seem to be a good idea | 12:28 |
| mjayk | afternoon all | 13:59 |
| foobarry | guy on my bus looked like super mario, even down to the moustach eand dungarees | 15:19 |
| Azelphur | random offtopic stuff, anyone familiar with Garmin GPS's? I've been given one to update, using virtulabox with win7, usb passthrough'd the GPS, it shows up in Windows as a "USB Mass Storage Device" but it says drivers weren't successfully installed, and Garmin Express doesn't see it. | 16:53 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: If you were to boot a Linux in your virtualbox does it show up in lsusb in the guest in the same way as it shows up in the host - i.e. has it really passed through? | 16:55 |
| Azelphur | penguin42: I'm going to check that now, on the host it shows up as a usb mass storage device and auto mounts. | 16:56 |
| Azelphur | penguin42: yup, shows up fine in a Linux guest. | 17:01 |
| daftykins | don't they do some funky mode switching where it tells the device to open up another sort of... thing :D | 17:02 |
| * Azelphur shrugs | 17:02 | |
| daftykins | i've done an update of one on Windows and even there it looked anything but normal, so that could complicate things | 17:03 |
| Azelphur | gonna try it in an XP guest. | 17:03 |
| daftykins | you know, if you boot a matching architecture windows 7 installer from USB, or from the Zalman - you can run executables from another flash drive. i suppose drivers would be out of the question though | 17:03 |
| Azelphur | hehe | 17:05 |
| daftykins | i did that when i didn't want to install Windows but wanted to run a BIOS updater or something | 17:06 |
| map | ARGHHH | 17:12 |
| map | feel so rough again | 17:12 |
| map | 30 cigs and 20 pints later | 17:12 |
| map | ;] | 17:12 |
| daftykins | silly boy! | 17:13 |
| map | usual | 17:13 |
| map | someday il quit smoking | 17:14 |
| map | or ..i guess stop breathing :) | 17:14 |
| Azelphur | nope, it doesn't appear to work at all on XP. | 17:15 |
| daftykins | dinosaur OS :D | 17:16 |
| daftykins | Azelphur: i think you've met your match on this one, in Loonix terms. | 17:16 |
| Azelphur | well it doesn't work on 7 and it doesn't work on XP | 17:16 |
| Azelphur | xD | 17:16 |
| daftykins | yeah but that's vbox no doubt | 17:17 |
| daftykins | when i did this one, i had to download a program from their site - and annoyingly there are two with very similar names | 17:17 |
| Azelphur | never had anything that didn't work because of vbox | 17:17 |
| daftykins | one does one set of models, the other does another | 17:17 |
| daftykins | what does device manager show about this failed driver situation? | 17:17 |
| Azelphur | (!) USB Mass Storage Device | 17:19 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: Is it a usb2 or usb3 device and what type of port do you have it plugged into? | 17:19 |
| Azelphur | right click properties, "This device cannot start. (Code 10)" | 17:19 |
| Azelphur | penguin42: I'm guessing it's USB2, and I have it plugged into my keyboards built in USB hub | 17:19 |
| zmoylan-pi | insufficent power? | 17:19 |
| Azelphur | zmoylan-pi: no, it works on Linux hosts and guests just fine. | 17:20 |
| daftykins | dude, don't use a hub :P | 17:20 |
| penguin42 | it's worth trying a port on it's own if you have one spare | 17:20 |
| daftykins | not firing up a driver for a mass storage device is quirky, perhaps you're meant to put on some Garmin gubbins first | 17:21 |
| Azelphur | daftykins: I installed the garmin USB drivers and garmin express | 17:21 |
| Azelphur | doesn't work on a dedicated port either. | 17:22 |
| daftykins | is it charged? | 17:22 |
| Azelphur | daftykins: it works on Linux hosts and guests... | 17:23 |
| Azelphur | so it's not a hardware issue. | 17:23 |
| Azelphur | or even a virtualbox issue I would think | 17:23 |
| daftykins | and yet you're staring at a non-functional device in a VM | 17:23 |
| daftykins | :) | 17:24 |
| Azelphur | yes, I'm blaming Windows/Garmin :) | 17:24 |
| ali1234 | virtualbox doesn't fully support usb2 | 17:24 |
| m0nkey_ | It does sort-of support USB2, you need to install the addon from Oracle's virtualbox website | 17:25 |
| Azelphur | well, I think this fellow is out of luck anywya | 17:28 |
| Azelphur | it doesn't seem to work xD | 17:28 |
| daftykins | the whole device? | 17:28 |
| Azelphur | daftykins: the device works fine | 17:29 |
| Azelphur | the USB storage works fine | 17:29 |
| Azelphur | Garmins software...does not :P | 17:30 |
| daftykins | what does it do? | 17:30 |
| Azelphur | daftykins: see above? | 17:30 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: You could give it a go in KVM, USB pass through is a bit of an art, I think it does USB2 | 17:30 |
| daftykins | nah i meant what does the software do 0o | 17:30 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: However, either way, just make sure the host kernel hasn't mounted the device | 17:30 |
| Azelphur | daftykins: update the maps. | 17:30 |
| daftykins | i meant for failing XD | 17:31 |
| Azelphur | daftykins: says it can't detect the device | 17:31 |
| Azelphur | penguin42: could do, seems like a PITA though | 17:31 |
| daftykins | sounds like what i had with this one where it was for the wrong model range | 17:31 |
| * Azelphur shrugs | 17:34 | |
| Azelphur | daftykins: at the very least Windows should have no problem mounting it as a USB mass storage device, because Linux guests can too | 17:35 |
| penguin42 | Azelphur: If you install virt-manager and qemu-kvm it should be OK, but it will take a bit of rework for you | 17:35 |
| Azelphur | yea, and then a Win7 install, I think this fellow will have to handle his own GPS :P | 17:36 |
| daftykins | Azelphur: yeah i don't think i ever had issues with that part. points to your VM really | 17:36 |
| daftykins | did it mount fine before any of the Garmin junk went on? | 17:37 |
| foobarry | has spirhave spotify stopped doing ads on the web player? | 17:38 |
| Azelphur | daftykins: no | 17:38 |
| foobarry | just played an album and had no ads | 17:38 |
| diddledan | allo allo | 18:02 |
| daftykins | good moaning, diddledan | 18:04 |
| daftykins | hmm Unreal 1, Unreal 2, UT99 GOTY and UT2004 are $2 each on gog.com right now | 18:04 |
| daftykins | that's barely over a fiver! | 18:05 |
| diddledan | daftykins, were you just pissing by the door? | 18:07 |
| daftykins | naturally, sir | 18:08 |
| zmoylan-pi | with the dinomoot disgeesed as a loof of breed? | 18:09 |
| diddledan | lol | 18:10 |
| diddledan | I loved that series | 18:10 |
| * zmoylan-pi pats a hard drive with all the episodes... | 18:10 | |
| * zmoylan-pi now pats the 'only fools and horses' dvds which will start to be added to it tonight after i rip 2 movies. the great escape and the princess bride | 18:11 | |
| zmoylan-pi | should pass and hour or 20 over crimbo | 18:12 |
| zmoylan-pi | was tempted by all of dads army but i prefer only fools | 18:13 |
| daftykins | ;) | 18:14 |
| daftykins | trouble with marathoning is you need a break, you should have at least two! | 18:14 |
| diddledan | this is nuts (you may have seen it already - it's been doing the rounds): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVBcEg6klJI | 18:49 |
| penguin42 | hehe | 18:53 |
| penguin42 | reminds me of Terminator 2 | 18:54 |
| daftykins | why are vmware vids related? XD | 19:34 |
| zmoylan-pi | because you're logged in? | 19:36 |
| zmoylan-pi | i think the last time i was logged in while using youtube was before they killed google reader :-) | 19:37 |
| zmoylan-pi | no reason to be logged in after that was killed off | 19:38 |
| daftykins | no, i never allow such sites to have me auth'd | 19:40 |
| daftykins | mmm i loved reader, i had to switch to feedly... which is alright | 19:40 |
| penguin42 | daftykins: I use newsblur (free version) | 19:41 |
| zmoylan-pi | i use newsbeuter on my rasp pi. works well enough though i only keep last 2 weeks of headlines as more than that slows it down on the pi. when out and about the rss reader in opera mini is good enough | 19:41 |
| zmoylan-pi | i could make the rasp pi visible while out and about and ssh in but am not brave enough to set that up yet | 19:55 |
| daftykins | zmoylan-pi: as long as you're on a non-standard port and have a sane password it'd be fine :) there's always fail2ban as well of course! | 21:07 |
| daftykins | if sticking to password auth at all | 21:07 |
| shauno | from the attempts I see, 'security through obscurity' has some real value | 21:13 |
| daftykins | attempts on port 22? yarr | 21:13 |
| shauno | disable root, don't use obvious usernames like staff, admin, pi, etc. that's most the dictionary attacks gone | 21:13 |
| ali1234 | well it never hurts when used in combination with other methods | 21:14 |
| daftykins | port knocking could be fun to play with sometime | 21:14 |
| daftykins | but that means more forwards, heh | 21:14 |
| zmoylan-pi | i use tablet for watching tv and movies as well as playing podcasts beside pc when i'm working. also for leaving a twitter client open so stream can flow past without taking up resources on main pc | 23:48 |
