00:00.51 | OrangeSkies | hi |
00:00.53 | cupis | gj_: hmm |
00:00.54 | OrangeSkies | i got dc |
00:01.36 | Leeds | dc is the "desktop calculator" |
00:02.25 | highbury | what's the problem? |
00:02.47 | omphe | Install keeps hanging around the "making log/root/boot filesystem" phase. |
00:03.07 | highbury | omphe: which version are you trying to install? |
00:03.12 | omphe | 1.0 |
00:04.00 | OrangeSkies | ^--hehe |
00:04.23 | OrangeSkies | gonna play tuxracer while me downloads going... wooooo! |
00:04.41 | highbury | cd or network install? omphe |
00:05.36 | omphe | The motherboard only recognized the cd drive once, then stopped seeing it, so network install, but I never get very far. |
00:05.49 | omphe | Could be motherboard problems. |
00:06.06 | cupis | omphe: http://www.gibraltar.at |
00:06.14 | highbury | omphe: and it recognised boot and driver floppies? |
00:06.23 | omphe | yep, no problems |
00:06.24 | Leeds | surely gibraltar.gi? |
00:07.01 | cupis | Leeds: no, I was answering: <omphe> cupis: what's better for firewalling that will allow a M$ user on the network to initiate dialup? |
00:07.06 | highbury | has the machine boot ever booted with a Knoppix CD? |
00:07.11 | Leeds | cupis: I know - joking :-) |
00:07.20 | cupis | though 'better' is subjective |
00:07.23 | cupis | Leeds: :) |
00:08.12 | omphe | Thought of that, but I've fiddled with the bios to the point where I can't get the DVD-rom recognized. Old board won't boot from CD drive anyway. |
00:09.52 | highbury | omphe: I'd be tempted tto try booting with tomrtbt floppy, and trying to partition/mke2fs the difk to check everythings ok |
00:09.58 | omphe | cupis: gibraltar looks promising, but the lack of a web interface rules it out for my widows using spouse. |
00:10.09 | cupis | see some of you tomorrow |
00:10.16 | omphe | ciao cupis |
00:10.47 | highbury | omphe: alternatively can you reset the BIOS to default settings |
00:10.56 | omphe | I dumped the HDD into another box and fdisk/mke2fs -ed it. Worked fine. |
00:10.59 | Leeds | g'night cupis |
00:11.18 | omphe | The board works best with the failsafe settings. |
00:11.44 | highbury | omphe: you need to check you can do that with the intended mobo first |
00:13.03 | omphe | Right. I'll try to make a tmsrtbt in the morning and give it a go. The install always gets through partitioning, but no fs creation. |
00:16.43 | omphe | time for bed. See you all tomorrow. |
00:16.54 | highbury | omphe: I'd also recommend trying the 2.0 beta4 version, which has proved very stable, and is a 2.4 kernel based version |
00:17.03 | highbury | + ext3 |
00:17.21 | Leeds | g'night omphe |
00:17.27 | omphe | That'd be one for the Janet connection in the lab! I'm on dialup here. |

00:20.10 | Leeds | morning resuDaed |
00:20.32 | OrangeSkies | resuDaed: would you like me to bring the hub in tomorrow for a gander? |
00:20.33 | resuDaed_ssh | Leeds : bash script - I have line of text, how can I check for a string, and if it is there set a variable to true? |
00:20.44 | gj_ | convert: 187 minutes... |
00:21.02 | resuDaed_ssh | OrangeSkies : may as well ... if not too inconvenient |
00:21.31 | OrangeSkies | resuDaed: i'll ask my ma for lift :) |
00:21.51 | resuDaed_ssh | I know using grep I can identify if the string is there, but how can I incorperate it into chanign a variable? |
00:22.17 | highbury | resuDaed_ssh: [ "$line" ] && flag=true |
00:22.45 | Leeds | resuDaed: something like "echo $string | grep -q foo ; if [ $? -eq 0 ] then yes=1 ; else yes=0 ; fi" |
00:22.50 | resuDaed_ssh | ahh!! ... didn't think of that :-) |
00:23.09 | resuDaed_ssh | Leeds : sweet |
00:23.42 | resuDaed_ssh | $? = $sting? |
00:23.57 | resuDaed_ssh | s/stin/string |
00:24.01 | murble | $? is the exist code. |
00:24.07 | murble | s/exist/exit/ |
00:24.10 | Leeds | resuDaed: needs ; after the ] |
00:24.39 | resuDaed_ssh | thanks ... know the status of exit codes will be very useful |
00:25.24 | highbury | if echo "$string" | grep -q foo; then yes=1 ; else yes=0 ; fi |
00:26.05 | Leeds | a little neater, but harder to read |
00:26.15 | Leeds | it should be on multiple lines, anyway |
00:27.27 | murble | you could even avoid the if |
00:28.03 | resuDaed_ssh | IMHO it is cleaner with the if |
00:28.22 | Leeds | I prefer cleaner code... (which is why I prefer Python to Perl) |
00:28.24 | Leeds | :-) |
00:28.28 | murble | resuDaed_ssh: you should strive to make it as small and non understandable as possible:) |
00:29.14 | highbury | no=`echo "$string" | grep -q foo; echo $?` |

00:29.57 | resuDaed_ssh | thanks |
00:30.38 | murble | why say s/say/said/ when you can say sbsaybsaidb ? |

00:48.02 | murble | if what? |
00:48.09 | murble | i mea then what |
00:48.26 | murble | and true isn'tn an integer |
00:48.46 | resuDaed_ssh | ok, so I replace with integers, but is the use of && correct? |
00:48.49 | murble | and you are trying to do an integer comparison. |
00:49.18 | OrangeSkies | Leeds: hey, could i ask for your help again for a min? |

01:06.57 | Leeds | resuDaed: where does $db get set? |
01:07.14 | Leeds | or $i for that matter? |
01:07.28 | resuDaed_ssh | well noticed, $db should be $dest |
01:07.44 | resuDaed_ssh | and so should $i |
01:08.47 | Leeds | you don't need to check if the file exists and if it's a normal file which exists |
01:09.21 | resuDaed_ssh | yes, I know ... thata line copied from an orrigional script that needed to check the both |
01:09.39 | Leeds | I don't like your indent style :-) |
01:10.08 | Leeds | this may be better in something like perl or python :-( |
01:10.10 | murble | It certaily is't python :) |
01:10.24 | Leeds | shell isn't really suited for this kind of text processing... |
01:10.27 | resuDaed_ssh | I have only been coding bash for a couple of weeks, I havn't yet fully developed my whitespace techniques |
01:11.00 | Leeds | I do "if [ foo ]\nthen\n\tbar\n\tbaz\nfi" |
01:11.31 | highbury | ie align if then else fi |

01:11.58 | Leeds | yeah |
01:11.59 | resuDaed_ssh | yes, I will modify accordingly once tested |
01:12.07 | highbury | this sort of processing is better suited to awk or perl |
01:12.28 | resuDaed_ssh | but in theory is correct? |
01:13.05 | resuDaed_ssh | I have around 120 files to parse, so a nice little for i in wrapper I think |
01:13.11 | murble | highbury: and maybe even sed! |
01:13.11 | Leeds | why do you set script to false at the start? |
01:13.17 | highbury | but you need to get rid of syntax errors first, also don't use similar names for things, i.e Script and script |
01:13.34 | highbury | harder to do in sed |
01:13.53 | resuDaed_ssh | because it was orrigionally set to true, and I changed my mind ... I now realise it is not needed thx |
01:13.59 | murble | highbury: sed is fun to learn. |
01:14.41 | highbury | yep, especially hold spaces <shudder> |
01:15.12 | highbury | the main $(cat $dest) is flawed, it will wrap the complete file onto one line |
01:15.52 | resuDaed_ssh | how else do I parse 1 line at a time? |
01:16.02 | highbury | the code needs comments |
01:16.19 | highbury | cat $dest | while read line; do .... ; done |
01:16.29 | Leeds | cat file | while read ; do something to $REPLY ; done |
01:17.24 | resuDaed_ssh | anything else? |
01:17.28 | highbury | Leeds: your missing argument to read, you need to have a variable to then process |
01:17.53 | Leeds | highbury: nope - it puts it into $REPLY by default if no name is given... at least in bash |
01:18.06 | highbury | ahhh, neat. |
01:18.54 | resuDaed_ssh | so $i is now $REPLY? |
01:19.05 | Leeds | something like that |
01:19.09 | resuDaed_ssh | (online version is now updated) |
01:20.50 | resuDaed_ssh | it doesn't like line 19 |
01:21.23 | resuDaed_ssh | the if containing &&, reports missing ] |
01:22.27 | resuDaed_ssh | any suggestions? |
01:22.30 | Leeds | missing $ |
01:22.59 | resuDaed_ssh | I know, I just saw it that second :-) |
01:23.42 | resuDaed_ssh | that isn't it though |
01:23.57 | resuDaed_ssh | ./rmjava: line 19: [: missing `]' |
01:24.10 | Leeds | the problem is that it's getting to that line and one of the variables isn't declared... make sure they're all declared in advance |
01:24.19 | highbury | try to align script and endScript |
01:24.24 | Leeds | they *don't* default to 0 - they default to a null string |
01:24.35 | highbury | put "set -u" after first line |
01:24.53 | resuDaed_ssh | what is the function of 'set -u'? |
01:24.54 | highbury | which will warn about uninitialised variables |
01:25.00 | resuDaed_ssh | ah |
01:25.07 | Leeds | good call |
01:28.15 | resuDaed_ssh | I am still getting the error about missing ] on what is now line 23, I have decalred necessary all variables to =0 |
01:28.52 | resuDaed_ssh | updated online version again |
01:29.05 | Leeds | add -x to the bash line and tell us exactly what is failing... |
01:29.13 | Leeds | you *are* working on a backup of your data files, right? |

01:31.17 | resuDaed_ssh | sorry for flood |
01:31.23 | resuDaed_ssh | didn't think |
01:33.48 | Leeds | just update the script on the website again? |
01:34.20 | resuDaed_ssh | is now the most recent version again |
01:34.54 | Leeds | I think maybe it should be "if [ $script -eq 0 ] && [ $endScript -eq 0 ] |
01:35.20 | resuDaed_ssh | that would make sense re: the error |
01:36.24 | highbury | if [ $script -eq 0 -a $endScript -eq 0 ] |
01:36.30 | resuDaed_ssh | it has run w/out errors, just inspecting the output now |

03:01.34 | OrangeSkies_ | Hi |
03:01.41 | Leeds | ... |
03:01.47 | OrangeSkies_ | i got cut off |
03:02.00 | Leeds | you mean you missed what I've been saying :-) |
03:02.09 | Leeds | broadband truely rocks |
03:02.11 | OrangeSkies_ | hehe yup!!! |
03:02.26 | OrangeSkies_ | last thing i got was whoa deja vu |
03:02.29 | Leeds | we can continue here... |
03:02.37 | OrangeSkies_ | okay... |
03:02.42 | Leeds | <Leeds> cgi is just a way for a web server to call external programs to generate web pages... |
03:02.42 | Leeds | <Leeds> and the cgi-bin is the directory where the cgi binaries live :-) |
03:02.42 | Leeds | <Leeds> except that they're usually not binaries, but executable scripts... but that's not important right now |
03:02.42 | Leeds | <Leeds> so the only important thing left is the "sudo make install" |
03:02.42 | Leeds | <Leeds> without going into detail on sudo now - it basically means "do this as root" |
03:02.43 | Leeds | <Leeds> so you run make install as root |
03:02.47 | Leeds | <Leeds> which copies all the binaries and other stuff |
03:02.51 | OrangeSkies_ | so... now i've done a botch job install of all this crap, am i a bit screwed? |
03:03.08 | Leeds | which botch job? |
03:03.13 | OrangeSkies_ | hehe well... |
03:03.26 | OrangeSkies_ | my wine install went a bit balls up |
03:03.47 | OrangeSkies_ | cos its asking for files from funny directories now that exist but in the wrong place |
03:03.52 | Leeds | oops |
03:03.58 | OrangeSkies_ | indeed lol |
03:04.10 | OrangeSkies_ | will that mess up my system d'you think? |
03:04.16 | Leeds | probably not |
03:04.32 | OrangeSkies_ | ok... i can't be arsed reinstalling mandrake again |
03:04.59 | OrangeSkies_ | i messed up my graphics card settings the other day and x wouldn't start |
03:05.24 | OrangeSkies_ | and because i didn't know anything about using the console i had to format and start again :( |
03:06.58 | Leeds | it happens... |
03:07.35 | Leeds | it's always useful to have another machine on a network you can login from and reboot your machine cleanly say, if you kill you X settings... |
03:07.36 | OrangeSkies_ | i managed to get opengl working nicely now though |
03:07.44 | Leeds | I've done it many times :-) |
03:08.00 | OrangeSkies_ | hehe |
03:08.21 | OrangeSkies_ | i wouldn't know how to get a network going from the console though |
03:08.25 | OrangeSkies_ | so anyway! |
03:08.27 | OrangeSkies_ | where were we? |
03:08.48 | OrangeSkies_ | binaries installed... we're ready to go? |
03:09.01 | Leeds | yeah, pretty much |
03:09.05 | OrangeSkies_ | :) |
03:09.10 | OrangeSkies_ | brill |
03:09.18 | OrangeSkies_ | i might have another go at getting wine to work now... |
03:09.43 | Leeds | that's it... mplayer is installed at /usr/local/bin/mplayer and, for example, if everything is alright, "mplayer -dvd 1" will do the expected thing |
03:10.47 | OrangeSkies_ | i was up til 5am on tuesday having cocked up my graphics settings |
03:11.20 | OrangeSkies_ | it wasn't the wine install that messed up, it was winesetuptk |
03:13.43 | Leeds | did you actually install it? |
03:15.20 | OrangeSkies_ | no cos there was an error when i configured |
03:15.45 | OrangeSkies_ | i think i need to move a directory to /root because thats where it seems to be looking for it |
03:16.52 | Leeds | what I would do is delete the two unpacked source directories and start again |
03:17.09 | OrangeSkies_ | ok i'll do that |
03:18.41 | Leeds | and I think it's time for me to sleep... |
03:18.51 | highbury | and me too |
03:19.05 | highbury | see you guys tomorrow |

20:34.10 | OrangeSkies | anyone alive? |
20:34.35 | nasrat | sort of |
20:35.41 | OrangeSkies | hmmm... i could do with some help |
20:39.31 | nasrat | shoot |
20:41.00 | OrangeSkies | ok well... i have debian with x configured to a p/s2 mouse |
20:41.18 | OrangeSkies | (thanks to resuDaed earlier on) |
20:41.18 | OrangeSkies | cept i got a serial mouse at home |
20:41.29 | OrangeSkies | and i think the same things happening with my keyboard cos its not recognising that either |
20:41.49 | OrangeSkies | and... i dont have the debian cds so i cant boot into rescue mode or whatever its called |
20:41.56 | OrangeSkies | so like... what do i do hehe |
20:42.10 | OrangeSkies | no mouse & no keyboard! |
20:42.34 | nasrat | at the boot prompt boot into single user mode (eg linux single) |
20:42.43 | OrangeSkies | how do i do that? |
20:42.49 | OrangeSkies | theres no option in the loader |
20:42.57 | nasrat | are you using grub? |
20:43.09 | OrangeSkies | uh, i don't think so but i'm not sure |
20:43.40 | nasrat | does it say lilo at startup, or have a splash screen or what? |
20:43.48 | OrangeSkies | it's not lilo |
20:44.16 | nasrat | ok press b and you should get a prompt |
20:44.30 | nasrat | then type linux single |
20:44.42 | OrangeSkies | ok |
20:44.54 | OrangeSkies | so which file do i need to edit? |
20:45.03 | OrangeSkies | XF86-Config or something |
20:45.11 | nasrat | easiest way might be to run dpkg-reconfigure |
20:45.20 | OrangeSkies | ah yeah |
20:45.38 | OrangeSkies | i should be alright there |
20:45.59 | OrangeSkies | thanks :) |
20:46.01 | nasrat | you may also be able to just hit ctrl-alt-f1 from X to get to a console login |
20:46.27 | OrangeSkies | ok i'll give that a try too |

23:24.37 | new2unix | woke at 3pm. didnt think there was any need to join the crew at the GreenMan |
23:30.31 | highbury | oh well your loss. I got to bed a 3:30, woke up at 8:30 and still made it.... :-/ |
23:32.41 | new2unix | i do that every other day. bed at 2am. up at 6am. thats why its extra difficult during the weekend. Its as if my biological clock knows that i aint working and so refuses to listen and be awakened by the alarm clocks (3 of them) |
