| 01:09.03 | eightyeight | ugh |
| 01:09.26 | eightyeight | i hate it when i try to explain an issue i'm having, and the person "helping" can't see past the tip of his nose |
| 01:09.42 | eightyeight | even after the issue is resolved, he continues to tell me how to fix it |
| 01:13.05 | nearn | welcome to the common linux user. |
| 01:13.27 | eightyeight | no kidding |
| 01:13.58 | eightyeight | here's a question, however: when using luks on a removable drive, it auto-mounts fine with gnome, and i get my purdy icon on the desktop |
| 01:14.20 | eightyeight | however, it's not honoring the ext3 label i've assinged it, rather, it's mounting as /media/disk |
| 01:14.37 | eightyeight | how to get luks to mount it with the label? |
| 01:15.34 | nearn | you could set it in your fstab and use uuid instead of /dev/device |
| 01:16.01 | eightyeight | that's if it's plugged in during boot |
| 01:16.19 | nearn | nope. |
| 01:16.34 | eightyeight | i'm just plugging it in (usb), and want gnome automount to mount it via it's label |
| 01:16.54 | eightyeight | /etc/fstab is parsed by gnome? |
| 01:17.19 | nearn | no, its parsed by the kernel |
| 01:17.26 | eightyeight | or, you're saying turn off auto-mounts, add it to the fstab, and mount -a? |
| 01:18.57 | nearn | yes and no. |
| 01:19.37 | nearn | err damn, I am all foggy. |
| 01:19.38 | eightyeight | ok. tell me what to do, because i would much rather see /media/personal as 'personal' is the ext3 label, rather than /media/disk |
| 01:20.00 | eightyeight | but it's encrypted with luks, so we have an extra layer to deal with |
| 01:20.07 | nearn | you are correct, I am just fogetting my fstab. |
| 01:21.05 | eightyeight | i think that luks just doesn't do filesystem labels, despite what Zelut says in http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/08/17/7-steps-to-an-encrypted-partition-local-or-removable-disk/ |
| 01:26.58 | eightyeight | hmmm. maybe i shouldn't be using luksformat, but cryptsetup instead... |
| 01:27.10 | eightyeight | has some studying to do |
| 01:28.38 | nearn | yeah, I dont know guy. |
| 01:29.28 | herlo | eightyeight: e2label my friend, e2label... |
| 01:29.51 | herlo | you know, unless its not ext3 or something :) |
| 01:31.04 | eightyeight | herlo: i've done e2label |
| 01:31.22 | eightyeight | it's not taking effect after i enter my passphrase |
| 01:32.23 | eightyeight | 1) luksformat -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 |
| 01:32.34 | eightyeight | 2) mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt |
| 01:32.40 | eightyeight | er |
| 01:32.43 | eightyeight | scratch that |
| 01:32.55 | eightyeight | 2) e2label /dev/sdb1 personal |
| 01:33.04 | eightyeight | 3) pull it out, put it back in |
| 01:33.08 | eightyeight | 4) enter passphrase |
| 01:33.16 | eightyeight | 5) /media/disk is the result |
| 01:34.25 | eightyeight | blkid shows LABEL=personal on /dev/sdb1 |

| 02:43.48 | herlo | eightyeight: that's lame |
| 02:43.57 | herlo | is this on ubuntu? |
| 02:44.01 | herlo | 8.04? |
| 02:44.13 | herlo | or debian or something else? Just want to do the correct research |
| 02:46.14 | eightyeight | herlo: ubuntu |

| 02:49.24 | eightyeight | supposedly, cryptsetup works, instead of lukformat |
| 02:50.59 | eightyeight | testing on another drive |
| 02:56.40 | eightyeight | nope. that doesn't work either |

| 03:30.59 | bmac2 | did you get a chance to find out what happened with my resume? |
| 03:32.12 | herlo | I asked, haven't heard back |
| 03:33.07 | bmac2 | k |
| 03:33.11 | bmac2 | just curious |
| 03:34.16 | herlo | nw, I suspect they will answer me within a couple days |
| 03:34.40 | bmac2 | I just find it strange on a lot of these |
| 03:34.44 | bmac2 | that i never seem to hear anything |
| 03:34.52 | bmac2 | even a fuck you would be nice sometimes |
| 03:34.55 | herlo | lol |
| 03:35.03 | bmac2 | at least I know they even looked at it |

| 17:57.55 | Yorokobi | Is there a way to enable desktop switching via the mouse wheel in Gnome sans Compiz? |
| 18:02.18 | Zelut | Yorokobi: scroll wheel on the desktop switcher applet |
| 18:02.42 | Yorokobi | Clarification: scroll wheel over the desktop similar to KDE and Fluxbox behaviour. |
| 18:02.58 | Yorokobi | ie. so I don't have to move my mouse to the applet |
| 18:13.22 | herlo | mice suck |
| 18:14.28 | Yorokobi | Tell us how you really feel, herlo |
| 18:15.40 | herlo | Yorokobi: well, even the little white furry ones are annoying |
| 18:15.51 | Zelut | I try to avoid the mouse when possible as well. |
| 18:16.00 | Yorokobi | Rats are cool, though. Especially the white ones. |
| 18:16.05 | herlo | but nobody should surf around with a mouse if they can help it. Its all about discrete movements |
| 18:16.10 | herlo | that's why gnome-do rules! |
| 18:17.19 | Zelut | Yorokobi: might look at this - http://tombuntu.com/?p=1122 |
| 18:34.34 | eightyeight | gnome-do is the something-something |
| 18:37.09 | herlo | eightyeight: uh, ok |

| 18:45.17 | herlo | really? |
