Installing Ubuntu 7.04 on Toshiba Satellite M45-S265

1. Download Ubuntu and burn to CD using ISORecorder

2.  Boot off the Ubuntu CD. At boot options highlight the first option, “Start or install Ubuntu” and then press F6. Text  appears on the screen that says “Boot Options: casper initrd=/casper/initrd.gz quiet splash –”. Add “pci=noacpi” before “splash”. This gets the LiveCD to run.

3. When Ubuntu finishes loading double-click the “Install” icon on the Desktop. Install Ubuntu answering the questions as needed.

At this point Ubuntu installs as expected. However, after rebooting I was presented with the login screen with the drum sounds. After logging in the screen went blank (not black) and the cursor was visible and able to move but, did nothing.
4. Reboot. When prompted press “Esc” to access the boot menu. Add “irqpoll” to the boot options.

5. Edit “/boot/grub/menu.lst” adding “irqpoll” to the “Kernel” line. See: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2761200

6. Get wireless working for WPA: http://www.debianadmin.com/enable-wpa-wireless-access-point-in-ubuntu-linux.html


Rsync backups
Taken from: http://www.mariospina.com/braindump/archives/2004/01/04/rsync_examples.php
rsync backup to a central backup server with 7 day incremental  

#!/bin/sh # This script does personal backups to a rsync backup server. You will end up # with a 7 day rotating incremental backup. The incrementals will go # into subdirectories named after the day of the week, and the current # full backup goes into a directory called "current" # tridge@linuxcare.com # directory to backup BDIR=/home/$USER # excludes file - this contains a wildcard pattern per line of files to exclude EXCLUDES=$HOME/cron/excludes # the name of the backup machine BSERVER=owl  # your password on the backup server export RSYNC_PASSWORD=XXXXXX ########################################################################
BACKUPDIR=`date  %A`
OPTS=”–force –ignore-errors –delete-excluded –exclude-from=$EXCLUDES –delete
–backup –backup-dir=/$BACKUPDIR -a”  export PATH=$PATH:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
# the following line clears the last weeks incremental directory
[ -d $HOME/emptydir ] || mkdir $HOME/emptydir
rsync --delete -a $HOME/emptydir/ $BSERVER::$USER/$BACKUPDIR/
rmdir $HOME/emptydir
# now the actual transfer
rsync $OPTS $BDIR $BSERVER::$USER/current

backup to a spare disk I do local backups on several of my machines using rsync. I have an extra disk installed that can hold all the contents of the main disk. I then have a nightly cron job that backs up the main disk to the backup. This is the script I use on one of those machines.

#!/bin/sh
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
LIST="rootfs usr data data2"
for d in $LIST; do
mount /backup/$d
rsync -ax --exclude fstab --delete /$d/ /backup/$d/
umount /backup/$d
done
DAY=`date " %A"`
rsync -a --delete /usr/local/apache /data2/backups/$DAY
rsync -a --delete /data/solid /data2/backups/$DAY
The first part does the backup on the spare disk. The second part backs up the critical parts to daily directories. I also backup the critical parts using a rsync over ssh to a remote machine. mirroring vger CVS tree The vger.rutgers.edu cvs tree is mirrored onto cvs.samba.org via anonymous rsync using the following script.
#!/bin/bash      cd /var/www/cvs/vger/     PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/freeware/bin:/usr/bin:/bin      RUN=`lps x | grep rsync | grep -v grep | wc -l`     if [ "$RUN" -gt 0 ]; then 	    echo already running 	    exit 1     fi      rsync -az vger.rutgers.edu::cvs/CVSROOT/ChangeLog $HOME/ChangeLog      sum1=`sum $HOME/ChangeLog`     sum2=`sum /var/www/cvs/vger/CVSROOT/ChangeLog`      if [ "$sum1" = "$sum2" ]; then 	    echo nothing to do 	    exit 0     fi      rsync -az --delete --force vger.rutgers.edu::cvs/ /var/www/cvs/vger/     exit 0

Note in particular the initial rsync of the ChangeLog to determine if anything has changed. This could be omitted but it would mean that the rsyncd on vger would have to build a complete listing of the cvs area at each run. As most of the time nothing will have changed I wanted to save the time on vger by only doing a full rsync if the ChangeLog has changed. This helped quite a lot because vger is low on memory and generally quite heavily loaded, so doing a listing on such a large tree every hour would have been excessive. automated backup at home I use rsync to backup my wifes home directory across a modem link each night. The cron job looks like this

#!/bin/sh     cd ~susan     {     echo     date     dest=~/backup/`date  %A`     mkdir $dest.new     find . -xdev -type f ( -mtime 0 -or -mtime 1 ) -exec cp -aPv "{}"     $dest.new ;     cnt=`find $dest.new -type f | wc -l`     if [ $cnt -gt 0 ]; then       rm -rf $dest       mv $dest.new $dest     fi     rm -rf $dest.new     rsync -Cavze ssh . samba:backup     } >> ~/backup/backup.log 2>&1

note that most of this script isn’t anything to do with rsync, it just creates a daily backup of Susans work in a ~susan/backup/ directory so she can retrieve any version from the last week. The last line does the rsync of her directory across the modem link to the host samba. Note that I am using the -C option which allows me to add entries to .cvsignore for stuff that doesn’t need to be backed up. Fancy footwork with remote file lists One little known feature of rsync is the fact that when run over a remote shell (such as rsh or ssh) you can give any shell command as the remote file list. The shell command is expanded by your remote shell before rsync is called. For example, see if you can work out what this does:

rsync -avR remote:'`find /home -name "*.[ch]"`' /tmp/

note that that is backquotes enclosed by quotes (some browsers don’t show that correctly).


How To Find MP3’s with Google

Taken from: http://www.geocities.com/my_haz_runs

This How-To will teach you how to use google to find mp3s. This How-To will be highly pragmatic and will focus on the hows and not the
wherefores of the various search strings. Written by my_haz

----------------------------------------------------------------------
= Index
----------------------------------------------------------------------

0) Key
1) Directories
2) Xitami Servers
3) Directory Listing
4) Andromeda Servers
5) Zina Artists
6) Apache mp3 Servers
7) Individual Songs

----------------------------------------------------------------------
= Section 0 - KEY
----------------------------------------------------------------------

You this are just some definitions I will use below.

[Directory String] can be any of the following :
1) "index of"
2) "last modified"
3) "parent of"

[file type] can be any of the following :
1) "mp3"
2) "shn"
3) "wma"

[mp3 name] can be any of the following :
1) the name of the album in quotes
2) the name of the artist in quotes
3) be daring and leave it blank and have lots of links
4) be creative!

[limitors]
1) -html -htm -php -asp -txt -pls

(inurl:) is optional and may be omitted and in fact most be
omitted if not using a search tool other than google.

(intitle:) can be used in place of (inurl:) and has a similar effect
again you must be useing google.

(-filetype:txt) adding this to the end of your search string can
filter some false positives.

(-playlist) adding this to the end of your search string can
filter some false positives.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
= Section 1 - Directories
----------------------------------------------------------------------

These are the most common way that mp3s are stored on the www, you
should try these strings first.

String Format :
Type 1 : [Directory String] + (inurl:)[file type] + [mp3 name]
Type 2 : [Directory String] + (intitle:)[file type] + [mp3 name]

Type 3 : [Directory String] + [file type] + [mp3 name] + [limitors]

Example Strings :
- intitle:index.of + mp3 + "grandaddy" -html -htm -php -asp -txt -pls
- "index of" + "mp3" + "radiohead" -html -htm -php
- "index of" + mp3 + "grandaddy"
- "index of" + inurl:mp3 + "beatles" -txt -pls
- "index of" + intitle:mp3 + beatles
- "last modified" + "shn" + "dylan"
- "last modified" + inurl:shn + "bob dylan"
- "parent of" + inurl:wma + "grandaddy"

Suggestions :
- Try (intitle:index.of + "mp3" + "band name" -htm -html -php -asp) first it
is usually the most effective.

Another Little Trick:
- If you have been getting alot of results on google but the pages don't seem
to be there try adding dates and the "apache" string to your search i.e.

- intitle:index.of + mp3 + "grandaddy" -html -htm -php -asp apache feb-2005
- intitle:index.of + mp3 + "grandaddy" -html -htm -php -asp apache 2005

or if you just want a big list of mp3' doing a search like this everymonth
- intitle:index.of + mp3 + -html -htm -php -asp apache mar

Where are the SIC codes???

I cannot believe how difficult it is to find an ASCII file with SIC codes! I am currently going through a conversion at work and needed to clean-up SIC codes we have collected throughout the years. I figured a quick Google would turn-up few thousand sites where I could download a text file. Nope.

Several searches later I was able to cough-up a couple of sites that had some SIC codes. The first was a list from the city of Milwaukee:
http://isdweb1.ci.mil.wi.us/gis/mprop/sic.dat

The second was a list from Great Britian found by someone looking for an ASCII file:
http://lists.evolt.org/archive/Week-of-Mon-20020415/109919.html

From these two lists and our 10 year-old production database I was able to create a list with 645 entries. I have posted it here for anyone to download. If you do download it I ask that you leave a comment with any SIC codes you have that that are not on the list.
