| 04:59.01 | IrishW0lf | stickster: hi |
| 04:59.09 | IrishW0lf | question? |
| 05:02.33 | IrishW0lf | rebooted my linuxbox last night, and now no drives including CD/DVD are being recognized. felt the drive, does not appear to be spinning. |
| 05:04.29 | IrishW0lf | there is power to the MB as the fans and cpu appear to be working. Nothing else. BIOS does not recognize either primary or secondary master or slave |
| 05:05.49 | IrishW0lf | I had replaced the power supply year before last. Could it have gone bad again?? |
| 05:08.22 | IrishW0lf | ShockWare: hi, if you have any ideas concerning the above, feel free to jump in!! |

| 05:38.05 | IrishW0lf | nombyte: hi |
| 05:40.19 | nombyte | hey there |
| 05:40.36 | IrishW0lf | getting on late, eh? |
| 05:40.42 | nombyte | nah this is earl for me |
| 05:40.48 | IrishW0lf | i answered your pm |
| 05:41.03 | IrishW0lf | ok |
| 05:41.07 | nombyte | really? i didn't get it? |
| 05:41.40 | IrishW0lf | maybe i was blocked thought i was registered |
| 05:41.47 | nombyte | i got ur first hi |
| 05:42.15 | IrishW0lf | yeah, that was on the main not pm |
| 05:42.49 | IrishW0lf | how are you at diagnosing HW probs |
| 05:45.43 | nombyte | ya there? |
| 05:46.06 | IrishW0lf | yes but appears that i am being blocked |
| 05:46.19 | IrishW0lf | hang on |
| 05:50.48 | nombyte | um... ? |
| 05:51.39 | IrishW0lf | well i identified my self to nickserv |
| 05:52.01 | nombyte | wanna use aim? |
| 05:52.29 | IrishW0lf | don't have aim on this box |
| 05:52.56 | nombyte | ok |
| 05:52.59 | nombyte | go ahead |
| 05:54.24 | IrishW0lf | rebooted my linux box last night |
| 05:54.42 | IrishW0lf | no hd's or cd/dvd recognized |
| 05:54.59 | nombyte | ouch |
| 05:55.08 | nombyte | so then it isn't just a hdd issue |
| 05:55.11 | IrishW0lf | bios doesn't see either primary or secondary master or slave |
| 05:55.25 | nombyte | did u recently do an update |
| 05:55.42 | IrishW0lf | i thing it may be power supply related |
| 05:56.09 | nombyte | if i remember correctly you do data recovery, do you not? |
| 05:56.15 | IrishW0lf | power gets to fans and cpu but doesn't appear to be driving HD's |
| 05:56.55 | nombyte | take out your laptop hdd and test it from another computer |
| 05:57.40 | IrishW0lf | yes, i could remove drives and try on different box, but i thought i would try and confirm the powersupply issue firs |
| 05:57.54 | nombyte | i guess what your saying is possible i just don't know how likely that is |
| 05:57.54 | IrishW0lf | no prob with lap top |
| 05:58.17 | nombyte | the real test would be to either put a diff hdd in that laptop |
| 05:58.22 | nombyte | or test that hdd on another computer |
| 05:58.29 | nombyte | I'd do both personally |
| 05:58.29 | IrishW0lf | well i guess i'll have to do it the hard way |
| 05:58.43 | nombyte | but then atleast you would know which way to go then we can start looking deeper |
| 05:59.16 | IrishW0lf | of course, you're right, just tired |
| 05:59.37 | nombyte | nothing is saying you have to do it tonight :D |
| 05:59.50 | nombyte | when you do that let me know and we'll start going from there |
| 06:00.29 | IrishW0lf | lol no not tonight. yes, i'll get back to you |
| 06:00.38 | IrishW0lf | thanks |
| 06:00.59 | nombyte | not a problem now i get to go work on my project >:D |
| 06:01.11 | IrishW0lf | go for it |
| 06:01.31 | IrishW0lf | night |

| 18:43.04 | stickster | jsmith: Hey man |
| 18:43.13 | jsmith | stickster! |
| 18:43.21 | stickster | jsmith: Question for you if you have time |
| 18:43.28 | jsmith | Sure... |
| 18:43.32 | jsmith | What's up? |
| 18:43.38 | stickster | jsmith: Do you use virt-manager and/or KVM+QEMU at all? |
| 18:44.03 | stickster | I am having a devil of a time getting a network bridge to work properly on my system, and I *really* need one to do some Rawhide package fixing & testing. |
| 18:44.03 | jsmith | I've used virt-manager a bit |
| 18:44.30 | jsmith | Hmmmn... works fine for me, as long as I turn on IPv4 forwarding |
| 18:45.01 | stickster | That may be the step I left out. :-) |
| 18:45.06 | stickster | Lemmesee.... |
| 18:45.38 | jsmith | in /etc/sysctl.conf, set net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1 |
| 18:45.59 | jsmith | Then run sysctl -p |
| 18:46.04 | stickster | jsmith: Right |
| 18:46.11 | stickster | jsmith: But it appears the problem persists. |
| 18:46.27 | stickster | I'm on my wlan0 (my laptop is my main workhorse) |
| 18:46.55 | jsmith | Eeew... OK, in that case I think you have to go into the Xen configs and tell it which NIC to use |
| 18:47.01 | stickster | I have a virbr0 running 192.168.122.0/24, and dnsmasq is running |
| 18:47.24 | jsmith | I know I had to futz with this a couple of months back... let me get my Xen box back online and take a look. |
| 18:47.30 | stickster | <network> |

| 18:47.42 | stickster | <PROTECTED> |
| 18:47.45 | stickster | </network> |
| 18:47.47 | stickster | There's my /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml |
| 18:47.52 | stickster | I have WinXP running with 0 problems too, kinda nice! |
| 18:47.59 | jsmith | No, this is in the *main* Xen config file... I don't know about QEMU |
| 18:48.05 | stickster | Especially since VMWare is having some mysterious problems. |
| 18:48.17 | stickster | I'm not using Xen though |
| 18:49.12 | stickster | I can ping myself on the virbr0 adapter (192.168.122.1) w/o problem. |
| 18:49.43 | stickster | But none of the guests seem to be able to get DHCP addreses from dnsmasq |
| 18:49.57 | stickster | I may not have that configured correctly, but I thought it was supposed to pretty much work out of the box |
| 18:50.14 | stickster | i.e. offer DNS/DHCP services to any adapter, unless you forbid it one or more |
| 18:54.41 | stickster | Hmm, uncool. |
| 18:58.32 | stickster | Yeah, zero luck here. *sigh |
| 18:59.36 | jsmith | Strange... I wish I knew the answer... |
| 18:59.46 | jsmith | You could always try the folks in #fedora-admin |
| 18:59.50 | jsmith | If they don't know, nobody does ;-) |
| 19:08.18 | stickster | Yeah, I should try there. |
| 19:08.24 | stickster | I feel bad bringing support problems there. |
| 19:08.36 | stickster | But on the other hand, the thought of suffering through #fedora is.... just, eww. |
| 19:12.37 | jsmith | Yeah, I hear you |
| 19:13.11 | jsmith | (After my Windows licensing battle yesterday, I'm still ashamed to admit that open source licensing is a nightmare too) |
| 19:15.00 | stickster | Eww, yucky. |
| 19:15.11 | stickster | licenseFights-- |
| 19:15.15 | stickster | jsmith++ |
| 19:15.19 | stickster | ~jsmith++ |
| 19:15.55 | stickster | ~stickster-- |
| 19:15.59 | jsmith | So, my kids get a game from their grandparents for Christmas |
| 19:16.12 | stickster | You mean a video game? |
| 19:16.22 | jsmith | So, I resurrect their old Windows box (hasn't run since we lived in Utah) |
| 19:16.27 | jsmith | But the on-board video won't cut it |
| 19:16.30 | stickster | ugh |
| 19:16.32 | jsmith | (Yeah, Age of Empires III) |
| 19:16.35 | stickster | aha |
| 19:16.42 | jsmith | Luckily, I had enough spare parts to build them a machine |
| 19:17.02 | jsmith | So I finally get it all set up, and Windows complains that it's already been licensed, yadda yadda |
| 19:17.16 | jsmith | I call Microsoft, explain the situation, they give me a new code to type in |
| 19:17.23 | jsmith | Then, that motherboard starts acting up |
| 19:17.37 | jsmith | Gets to where it will reboot every 30 seconds or so |
| 19:17.54 | jsmith | (This is the motherboard from my old server, which had problems, fwiw) |
| 19:18.15 | jsmith | So, I bite the bullet and give them the motherboard/cpu out of my lab box |
| 19:18.22 | stickster | A CPU cooling problem maybe? |
| 19:18.32 | jsmith | stickster: I'm not sure... still trying to track it down |
| 19:18.39 | jsmith | stickster: If you can get it working, it's yours for the taking |
| 19:18.42 | stickster | haha |
| 19:18.54 | stickster | I already have two mobo's and nothing done with them |
| 19:19.02 | jsmith | So I get Windows back up, call Microsoft again... |
| 19:19.33 | stickster | "Jared WHO?!?" |
| 19:19.35 | jsmith | And just as soon as I reboot, it loads a bunch of new nvidia chipset drivers, which makes Windows think that the motherboard, hard drive, video card have all changed, so I have to call Microsoft a *third* time |
| 19:19.41 | stickster | "Never heard of him." |
| 19:20.06 | jsmith | Wasted like ten hours over the past three days, all so my son could play Age of Empires against his uncles |
| 19:20.26 | jsmith | And then both uncles decided to drive back to Mississippi at 5:00am this morning, so he didn't get a chance to play against them after all |
| 19:21.19 | stickster | Oh lordy. |
| 19:21.45 | stickster | My family has given up trying to buy anything computer related for my kids |
| 19:22.29 | stickster | Which is fine with me... aside from the XO -- obviously computer related -- my daughter's favorite Christmas gift was Jenga |
| 19:22.39 | stickster | {Anything made with wood}++ |
| 19:22.47 | stickster | Never needs batteries! |
| 19:23.13 | stickster | Not that you'll find any dearth of battery-eating monstrosities at our house |
| 19:32.15 | jsmith | My favorite gift this year (besides the new shotgun) are some remote control helicopters that my son and I can fly and try to shoot each other down |
| 19:34.04 | stickster | My drummer Rich and his son got those too! |
| 19:34.49 | jsmith | Oooh :-) |
| 19:34.51 | jsmith | They're a blasat |
| 19:34.55 | jsmith | s/blasat/blast/ |
| 19:35.55 | stickster | Send me a link or a name of what it is -- I forgot to ask Rcih |
| 19:35.59 | stickster | s/Rcih/Rich/ |
| 19:36.27 | jsmith | Air hogs |
| 19:37.23 | stickster | I gotta go look those up. |
| 19:37.45 | jsmith | airhogs.com, I think |
| 19:38.24 | stickster | Is there a model name? They have about a billion different kinds |
| 19:38.34 | stickster | Havoc Heli Laser Battle? |
| 19:38.44 | stickster | Super Chomper Chipmunk Blast? |
| 19:38.56 | stickster | Mega Monster Missile Monkeys? |
| 19:46.53 | jsmith | Havoc Heli Laser Battle, I think |
| 19:52.18 | stickster | Looks cool! |
| 19:52.25 | jsmith | Yeah, that's the one |
| 20:58.37 | stickster | OK, it wasn't me after all... Rawhide is suffering from a "can't network install" problem. |
| 20:58.57 | stickster | It's a libnl upgrade... kind of fundamental :-) |
| 21:06.48 | jsmith | Oh, that's good to know |
| 21:07.03 | jsmith | Kind of a relief in some ways, I'll bet |
| 21:09.33 | stickster | Hmm. |
| 21:10.07 | stickster | I guess nbd would save the day here. |
| 21:12.52 | jsmith | Never msessed with it much |
| 21:22.22 | stickster | Ah, no point -- I can set up a separate partition and just have libvirt use it instead. |
| 21:25.58 | stickster | Now I just have to wait for the rsync to finish. |
| 21:26.08 | stickster | Wish my wifi was faster :-D |
