<Enchanter_tim> :)
<Enchanter_tim> so, hows my favourite nibble ?
<lacroix> Just came back from work.. might have a nap; and you?
<xarius> O.o
<xarius> BT's 21st Century Network (21CN) is a network transformation project which will see the UK's telephone network move from the present AXE/System X Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) to an Internet Protocol (IP) system. -- news to me :o
<Chimi> mount: I could not determine the filesystem type, and none was specified
<Chimi> <-- i want to Mount the Floopy Drive it shows me that error ???
<whythehell> Chimi: You may need to add -tvfat to your command line.
<lacroix> xarius: they've promised 100Mb/s cafes.
<whythehell> And it will still take 10 minutes to get just a cappuccino.
<Chimi> already i did .. mount -t vfat after that
<whythehell> Chimi: What exactly did you do?
<whythehell> It should be like (if you are root) mount -tvfat /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
<whythehell> or /media/floppy or /floppy, depending on which version of which distro
<Chimi> floopy dirve is not opening .
<whythehell> You do of course have to have a formatted floppy disk in the drive...
<chills> hey whythehell hey chills
<chills> oops
<chills> hey Chimi
<Chimi> mount -tvfat /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
<Chimi> mount: mount point /mnt/floppy does not exist
<Chimi> <-- it says that
<Chimi> HAlooo chillszzz ;)
<whythehell> Chimi: Okay, try /media/floppy instead of /mnt/floppy then.
<Chimi> unable to mount Select Volume
<chills> Chimi : hardware manager kea o goea sta kum floopy drive dea
<Chimi> mount -tvfat /dev/fd0 /media/floopy
<Chimi> mount: /dev/fd0 is not a valid block device
<Chimi> <--- it says that
<Soutane> That's weird.
<Soutane> Does your fstab file reference your floppy drive at all?
<whythehell> Chimi: < Chimi> mount: I could not determine the filesystem type, and none was specified <-- what did you type to get this error earlier?
<Chimi> yes i got that Error .. still this
<whythehell> Chimi: What command line were you trying when you got that?
<Hypnop> chimi: Do you have a dir /mnt/floppy ?
<whythehell> Hypnop: He has /media/floppy
<pmo> what is the most populair semi small linux destro atm ?
<Chimi> yes i make a Director first then i applied command
<Soutane> pmo: probably damn small linux.
<pmo> nah thats to small :P
<pmo> and i got DSL heh
<Soutane> Well, what do you want to do with it?
<pmo> install it on a older box
<Soutane> Breakfast time. bbl.
<Chimi> yes now i made Dir in /mnt/floppy there is directory NOW
<whythehell> Chimi: What does: grep floppy /etc/fstab # tell you ?
<lacroix> Chimi: try without the -t option, just mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
<Chimi> /dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
<Chimi> <--- tell that
<whythehell> I'm partially given to believe there's no disk in the drive.
<whythehell> But I'm just cynical.
<lacroix> chimi: mount /dev/fd0
<lacroix> if you got an fstab entry
<Chimi> i did without it says
<Chimi> mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy -t vfat
<Chimi> mount: /dev/fd0 is not a valid block device
<lacroix> Chimi: distro?
<Chimi> [root@localhost chimi]# mount /dev/fd0
<Chimi> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
<Chimi> Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 #1 Thu Jun 2 22:55:56 EDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

<brian3000> When I open and begin to download a windows game in wine it starts the exe and then ceases with no warnings or informative probelmn solvers.
<brian3000> anyone know what this might be
<lacroix> Chimi: mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy should work
<Chimi> its reading doing nothing more .. on this command
<Enchanter_tim> lacroix: oh, maybe you can help me with something :)
<Chimi> flopy light blinking .. but not working why ?
<Enchanter_tim> lacroix: i need to make a movie of a console or xterm session. and a movie of stuff that happens in a window (like, doing stuff in a browser, that sort of thing). know any application that might do this?
<lacroix> Chimi: try changing the cable
<Chimi> ok i will when i restart .! :) thank you .. i m sure that command will work .! after changing the cable
<lacroix> tim: desktop session recorder?
<lacroix> tim: try 'istanbul'
<whythehell> :-) : 14:23 <+Al-Ashtar> Enchanter_tim: http://live.gnome.org/Istanbul
<Hypnop> OK. Question: Is there a way to change every space in a line to a comma? for example replace "this is a test" with "this,is,a,,,test"
<whythehell> Hypnop: tr ' ' ',' # ?
<lacroix> Hypnop: foo=${foo// /,}
<lacroix> or if you're reading a data stream, | tr ' ' ,
<lacroix> wth: That would work, but you don't have to quote commas
<whythehell> lacroix: I like symmetry.
<xarius> gah, stupid wikipedia
<xarius> click one harmless link and you're reading it for hours ><
<lacroix> Not seen a virus on any of my personal machines in years.
<Hypnop> lacroix: AWESOME! thnx
<lacroix> np
<pmo> maybe there are is a vira or two
<pmo> you just dunno ;)
<lacroix> Last virus I had was back pre-internet days .. "John the Ripper"
<lacroix> or was that Jack?.. <shrug>
<lacroix> One of those nasty bootblock virii that randomly corrupted data.
<pmo> jack the ripper, the bruteforcer ?
<Routermen> john the ripper .. hmm .. sounds familiar
<pmo> hydra
<Routermen> pmo : yep u remind me of the cracker
<whythehell> Robbie Coltrane?
<pmo> lol
<lacroix> pmo: Note my windows box is always behind a firewall and is mainly used for gaming. So I rarely download or surf with it.
<pmo> lol john!
<pmo> not jack
<pmo> lacroix yea i know, same here, minus gaming
<Routermen> theres anotherone called viper
<Routermen> was*
<pmo> there are lots of them out there
<Routermen> we use it to check on weak p***word
<pmo> but i don't really see any use in hydra's
<Routermen> hydra is easy to twart
<Routermen> denyhosts tcpwrapper or iptables should do the trick
<pmo> hehe
<pmo> hydra's/bruteforcers are for kids heh
<lacroix> My main desktop at home is a PowerPC MacOS/X box.
<lacroix> well.. s/desktop/laptop/
<Chimi> i have download the samba server .. and extrat it. now how i will configure .. that server
<Chimi> lacroix,
<Hypnop> before I go I forgot
<Hypnop> How would I delete a certain letter from a variable?
<lacroix> Chimi: whats wrong with "yum install samba system-config-samba && system-config-samba" ?
<lacroix> Hypnop: var=`echo $var | sed 's/../../g`
<Chimi> something extracting in terminol
<Chimi> but it showing some error n tring to another mirrors
<lacroix> Chimi: no, you said you had installed it.
<lacroix> Hypnop: sed 's/,$//' that will remove just the trailing.
<lacroix> but if you want to remove any non-numeric.. you want..
<lacroix> sed 's/[^0-9]//'
<lacroix> you may want to add , if you want to preserve it.
<Chimi> i mean to install to download from the net .. and extract on my pc .. i didnt installed i just download n extract on my pc ..
<lacroix> Hypnop: you can link stuff by doing: sed 's/[^0-9,]//g;s/,$//g;'
<Hypnop> Nice
<Hypnop> thank you so much
<lacroix> Chimi: don't install from source if you don't have a good reason to or there is no package.
<Chimi> lacroix, ?
<lacroix> *sigh*
<Chimi> so i will configure package before ?
<Chimi> ? wat to do .. if i want to install n configure ? to make fc4 to samba server
<xarius> *sigh* indeed
<lacroix> that is my 10 second sed lesson that took me more than 10 seconds to learn on my own. :)
