Re: [MBZ] Estimate

[clay monroe via Mercedes]

Randy, 

I am not getting call backs from those shops.  I was referred to a few by other 
shops.  I think they are not interested in screwing with insurance companies.

But what would running a Linux guest in Virtualbox on the Win 7 laptop
gain me? I still need to get a tolerable UI in Linux, and Gnome 3 is NOT
it.

The USB is an externally-powered hard disk that needs 120 VAC for its
power supply -- not exactly useful with a laptop.

Synchronizing back to Linux IS NOT the problem. rsync on Cygwin takes care
of that just fine.

Synchronizing from Linux to Win 7 IS the problem.

If you do this often, look at "unison". I use it heavily to keep

scp will retain permissions.  I really don't know how permissions
are handled on NTFS and how Cygwin will translate them.

What file system is on the USB stick?  FAT32 does not have
permissions.  That should be rwx for all files.  When putting them
back onto Linux, you can pass options to the mount command to set
the uid and gid.

Re: [MBZ] Window permissions problem -- Help!

[OK Don via Mercedes]

I was a late adopter of Windows - waited until 3.1. I think I've only
skipped one or two versions since then. Didn't get into the servers until
3.5. Almost all of the problems I've had were application related, not the
OS. This includes managing a network of 8000+ PCs at 80+ locations with
150+ servers, and migrating them from W95 through W7. Very few problems
other than the applications we wrote in house.
The publications unit hired a bunch of new staff who demanded MACs - they
were a pain to support and constantly had issues with their machines - more
than the Windows users per capita, but then again, they were "special"
people, being artists and all.

I also run Ubuntu (now) for fun and since my free MSDN licenses dried up
when I retired on a laptop. It updates as often or more so than the M$
machines, and has more in-expected issues that require re-boots to cure
(reading encrypted USB sticks).

YMMV.

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

So who do you think is helping you when you have Windows problems? The other 
users who find the issues and make reports to Microsoft thats who. If there was 
no user community there would be minimal support. Of course if it worked better 
it wouldn't need support.
I installed Win7 on this laptop and it had Mal-ware within days, mostly from 
Facebook. I'd installed Microsoft Security Essentials which did nothing, 
Malwarebytes did nothing. Finally installed Symantec which we have a corporate 
license for and the problems went away.

Re: [MBZ] Window permissions problem -- Help!

[rogerhga--- via Mercedes]

I've always found that you only need an "active user community" when you have a 
complex product or one with diverse problems/issues. Simple and relatively 
stable products don't really need user communities. As a user since the 80's, 
I've never had to consult a user community for assistance. So, stick with what 
works for you, but try not to trash everything else that might work just fine 
for others.

Some predictions have changed. It looks like it may go up the east coast of 
Florida and on to points north, or go further out to sea and spare Florida 
except for high tides along the east coast.

The weather bureau in Miami always makes the likelyhood of a hurricane hitting 
Florida worse than it is since there are lots of tourists and new residents who 
would not make preparations. 
The meteorologists are rated on their reports of size, strength, and direction 
of hurricanes; but even more severely on loss of life. 
Hurricanes alone don't deter tourists and people moving to Florida, but loss of 
life from hurricanes does.

Re: [MBZ] OT Irma

[Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes]

The latest trend is for Irma to veer sharply to the North - with the eye
passing to the East of, sparing it a direct hit.  What would follow is a
whole slew of possible tracks as the storm makes its way up the coast,
including a direct hit on Charleston.  Yikes!  Or it could barrel out to
sea...

If I had one I would travel leisurely along rural back roads, pull over and

When KYB came out with adjustable struts in the early 1990s, I put a pair on 
the front of the Plymouth. A couple of years later when one started leaking, 
KYB gave me two more. A couple of years later when one started leaking, KYB 
said they didn't make adjustables for that car any more, gave me a pair of 
single tube gas struts, and told me the replacement struts didn't have lifetime 
warranty so I wouldn't be getting any more replacements under warranty, the 
fact that I'd bought two fairly expensive struts with lifetime warranty didn't 
matter. 

And that was the end of KYB buying for me. Fortunately the non-adjustables 
never failed. IME, KYB never worked as well as Bilstein anyway, but they were 
always cheap and easy to find. 

Mitch.

Does Koni still make shocks and struts?

That's what we're hoping to do. Looks like it might be working.

If it hangs out and makes it into the Gulf we'll be in big trouble. The NE

Just had it aligned, so I'll put up a stink if they should have caught this 
with the list of other stuff they caught (like entire control arm with ball 
joint on other side).  Struts are relatively low mileage, but 8 years old and 
KYB which is lower end stuff.

My problem is not transferring files from the Win 7 laptop to the Linux
desktop; that works well with rsync in Cygwin.

My problem is getting ready for another trip and updating the Win 7 laptop
with the changed files and directories from the Linux desktop.

I guess I could do as I originally did, update the files on the ext3 USB
disk and then use the Win 7 application that reads from (but not writes
to) the ext3 USB disk to put the emails and directories on the Win 7
laptop, but that, as far as I know, requires deleting all the emails and
directories from the laptop and copying all of them from the ext3 USB
disk, which takes a LONG time (I currently have 1140 directories and
70812 files, which take up 4.2 gigabytes).

Re: [MBZ] Window permissions problem -- Help!

[rogerhga--- via Mercedes]

Well, you guys can complain all you want, but I've run Windows since it was an 
app on top of DOS. I've never had a problem that made me want to run to the odd 
stuff some of you guys are using. If you were only running Windows, you 
wouldn't be having these problems. I know Linux has an appeal and Macs have an 
appeal, but they are not mainstream. And mainstream allows you quick answers 
and fixes to problems. 
I wish you luck.

Re: [MBZ] Window permissions problem -- Help!

[Meade Dillon via Mercedes]

Can you segregate all the changes (all the received and sent emails) to the
email directories from the trip, and copy them off to a USB?  If you can
separate those and save them from the Win7 laptop, then only import those
to the Linux system?  In other words, use the old version that is still on
the Linux and just update that with changes from the trip, rather than
trying to copy all the files / directories back over to the Linux system.

Gee, that's sort of a personal question, isn't it?

Oh! You mean are we bugging out?

Too early to decide. If the storm tracks up the east coast as we're hoping it 
does, we'll just hunker down and shelter in place. I have plywood, water, 
generator, fuel, etc., so we're as prepared as we can be for now.

Re: [MBZ] 126 SEC on BAT

[Max Dillon via Mercedes]

You'll enjoy "Breaking Bad", I was totally hooked after watching the first 
episode of season two.  I ended up watching all but the last season on Amazon 
prime.
