Fraud solved by timely action

Yesterday I saw 3 emails about Skype manager in my inbox - the first I ever heard of the service. One was about it being set up, one about being charged €115 and the last about being removed from skype manager - by myself! I changed my skype password immediately. When logging into my account on the web I saw that it was suspended from making further purchases (the fraud was seemingly detected). I rang the credit card company and there were two charges for £96 and £11.50. I was going to dispute these obviously but then contacted Skype support via chat (link on skype support page) and the agent reversed the charge *because I contacted Skype before the money was collected from the credit card company* - so in the end these transactions will not even appear on my cc statement. (this was within 3 hours of getting those emails). I don't know if it would have been as smooth if I had to get an actual refund but it looked at least like Skype detected the transaction as fraud. I also got the account unsuspended by providing a few details about myself.

Thank you for sharing this experience.
TIME ZONE - US EASTERN. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac

Statechart - exiting from timed actions

Hi,
I'm new at Labview and the statechart module. I used to work with Simulink so I'm in adaptation mode!
I'm building a statechart to control a machine that has several devices. I want implement a emergency state.
Some of the states actions have subVI inside with timed tasks inside. I want be able to go to the emergency state even if one of that timed tasks are running and it is not yet finished.
The problem is that I cannot go to the emergency state before the time ends. I also tried to put the execution of the subVI inside the entry action, but the behaviour was the same.
Can anyone help me to solve this?
You can see an example of my application in the attach.
I'm trying to create a superstate inside each main state for each device that i need to control. So connect the emergency transition directly to each transition is not solution.

[SOLVED] dmraid "Timed out waiting for device" at boot

Created a bug report with solution proposal: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/33166
I created a virtual machine to demonstrate the problem
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B40Hp1 … WZUQ21xZk0
The root and the other mount points are all on one raid disk. Although the root mounts quickly, other mount points cause timeouts at boot time.
dmraid prints that all /dev/mapper/isw_* devices are created.
I think /dev/disk/by-uuid/* links are created too, but for some reason systemd doesn't see them.
After boot I can execute "mount -a" without errors.
here's my fstab:

I've ran into exactly same problem lately, but finally solved it.
Setup: Intel Fake RAID, mirror, partitioned as:
/dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvol1 /boot
/dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvol2 /
/dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvol3 /home (dm-crypted)
In /etc/fstab i had following mountpoints:
# file /etc/fstab
/dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvolp2 / ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 1
/dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvolp1 /boot ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 2
and boot hung on waiting for /dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvolp1. Solution involves changing dev path to UUID:
# file /etc/fstab
/dev/mapper/isw_dfjeffgfaj_rootvolp2 / ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 1
UUID=44809529-11d9-4f53-9652-7b97ed077225 /boot ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 2
For some reason symlinks /dev/mapper/isw* are not present during systemd mount.

[SOLVED]Thunderbird attachments action list empty

So I have been experiencing this for a while now, thuderbird is my prefered mail client but If I am unable to solve this I will have to switch mail clients.
My attachments action list is empty and I am unable to populate it, that is, I cant open ANYTHING by clicking on it on thunderbird, no urls, no documents/pdfs, no video, audio, nothing.
I tried deleting the mimetypes.rdf file as the mozillazine suggested, but same problem.
I have also tried to reinstall thunderbird, same thing.
How can I fix this?
many thanks

Fraud detection? / Corrective Actions

Hi, I was informed that there is Someone else here on skype using my Full-name.. (potential Fraud / Identity theft)
What would be the best course of action ? (Or does skype turn a blind eye to this sort of thing?)

Ah, might've been a false alarm =)
Quite a pain to get two accounts signed up (skype & skype support // took ages (and many attempts) to load the Create Account page for some reason), and then download the skype client aswell...
At least he hasn't got my picture aswell though =) looks more like justin beiber xD, so I think it's ok... But I could be wrong?!

[SOLVED] dhcpcd: timed out

I want to install Arch using wifi. I'm trying to connect to my WPA network before I even begin.
I did this (with my own network and passphrase in place)
wpa_passphrase mywireless "secretpassphrase"
wpa_passphrase mywireless "secretpassphrase" > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
ifconfig wlan0 up
wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
dhcpcd wlan0
And got:
dhcpcd: version 5.2.2 starting
dhcpcd: wlan0: waiting for carrier
dhcpcd: timed out
What's wrong?
EDIT: Long story. Wrong key
Last edited by RocketLauncher (2010-07-21 09:36:10)

Before starting dhcpd, make sure you are connected - run wpa_supplicant without the -B switch to check for errors.

[solved] dhcpcd: timed out after reinstalling arch

Hi erveryone!
After reinstalling arch I can't connect to my wireless network anymore.
Typed:
wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant_vienna.conf
dhcpcd wlan0
Got:
dhcpcd: wlan0: waiting for carrier
dhcpcd: timed out
wpa_supplicant_vienna.conf (ssid and psk deleted):
network={
ssid=""
proto=RSN
pairwise=CCMP TKIP
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk=
I reinstalled arch on my netbook at the same time and there's everything working fine (even with the same wireless-card). The only difference between the two systems is that my laptop has an i686 installation while on my netbook I've installed x86_64.
Things I've tried:
+ Update the system via wired-connection (mirrors.kernel.org) --> the download never gets faster than 10KB/s (?).
+ Configure the wireless interface via netcfg --> same problem
+ Reinstalled again and only changed LOCALE in /etc/rc.conf --> same problem
So you may see, I have no idea what I could be doing wrong and hope that theres anybody out there who knows what to do!
P.S. Well, i have now by-passed my problem.
1.) Created a list of packages installed during system-update on my netbook.
2.) In this list I changed package-name-x86_64.tar.gz to package-name-i686.tar.gz
3.) Downloaded the list with wget.
4.) Ccopied the packages to my laptop
5.) Created a local repository and made a system-update.

Hi trusktr
This might seem stupid but are you sure you are using "eth0" and not "eth1" etc.? As an example I have two on-board lans and I'm plugged into eth1. I had to change rc.conf as it defaults to using eth0.
#Static IP example
#eth0="eth0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255"
eth1="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(eth1)
Since I am using eth1 and not eth0 here is what I get when I try:
ifconfig eth0:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:04:4B:00:88:0E
BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
Interrupt:23 Base address:0x6000
Look familiar?
I'm not saying this is the case but it could be something as simple as that.
ifconfig -a
should show you how many lans you have.
Thought I would drop the obvious first in case that's all it is.

[SOLVED] "eth1 timed out" but by iwconfig-command it works

Hi,
Strange, Im setting up my wireless with ipw2200-fw. I used the template-Network-Profile and changed the settings like this:
# Network Profile
DESCRIPTION="wifi profile"
# Network Settings
INTERFACE=eth1
HOSTNAME=myhostname
# Interface Settings (use IFOPTS="dhcp" for DHCP)
IFOPTS="dhcp"
#GATEWAY=192.168.0.1
# DNS Settings (optional)
# Wireless Settings (optional)
ESSID="essid"
KEY=1234567890
IWOPTS="mode managed essid $ESSID channel 11 key restricted $KEY"
#WIFI_INTERFACE=wlan0 # use this if you have a special wireless interface
# that is linked to the real $INTERFACE
#WIFI_WAIT=5 # seconds to wait for the wireless card to
# associate before bringing the interface up
#USEWPA="yes" # start wpa_supplicant with the profile
#WPAOPTS="" # use "" for normal operation or specify additional
# options (eg, "-D ipw")
# see /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf for configuration
#AUTOWPA="yes" # automatically configure WPA
#PASSKEY="" # wpa passkey/phrase. for use with AUTOWPA
When I boot up with kernel-option "net=home" it results in a "eth1 timed out". But if I use the following iwconfig-command, it works:
iwconfig eth1 mode managed essid "essid" channel 11 key restricted 1234567890
What is wrong with my config? Maybe the kernel-parameter is not correct?
Thanks for help.

that configurations are wrong.
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Con … or_DHCP_IP
btw the is no differences of packages between 2008.06 and 2009.02. that versions are for installers only. if you didn't know until now archlinux is a rolling release distributions.

[solved]eth0: timed out

Hi,
I am having problems getting internet connection bia ethernet.
I have no way of posting the exact files from the arch box, but here is my rc.conf network part:
eth0="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(eth0)
ROUTES=(!gateway)
And i can not connect
It always says it timed out.
Last edited by Fork (2008-06-20 22:43:22)

What is your router's IP address? That will be your gateway's address, and before the "ROUTES=(!gateway)" line, you need to put this:
gateway="default gw 192.168.0.1"
where 192.168.0.1 is the router's IP address; yours may differ (mine is 192.168.1.1, for example).
and it should connect. Also, you should make sure that the "network" daemon is up and running and is in the DAEMONS section at the bottom of /etc/rc.conf.

Require help to solve Connection timed out error while reload initial data

Dear Developers,
I have installed SAP NetWeaver and SAP ME SDK 2.0 on my laptop and working from offshore, the SAP ME WIP and ODS database is situated at onsite. The installation is working fine, however, after developing Activity Hooks, at the step where I need to Reload Initial Data for the Site where I want the Activity to be used I get the below error message:
500 Connection timed out
Error: -5
Version: 7011
Component: ICM
Date/Time: Wed Mar 07 12:37:38 2012
Module: icxxthr.c
Line: 4184
Server: <laptop_hostname>_<SID>_00
Error Tag: {-}
Detail: Connection to partner timed out after 600s
© 2001-2009, SAP AG
How to find out what is causing this error? When I use the hostname of the onsite SAP ME application pointing to the same database, Reload Initial Data works fine. I need to reload initial data from laptop SAP ME application only, beacause the activity hook classes reside on my laptop, before I send the SAPME.sca files for common server build.

Hello,
Please try to increase PROCTIMEOUT ICM parameter for the corresponding server\port. If it does not help, please, check NW default traces for ME errors and share your results with us.
Best regards,
Alex.

[SOLVED] Thunar Custom Action copy to move to

If some could please help me. I would like to have a Thunar custom action
that mimicks the copy to, move to action taht can be found in other filemanagers
like dolphin. I would be ok with it using zenity or gtk, or whatever. Also, I am using
thunar in LXDE if that makes a difference.
I have already googled it and found nothing.

This one works for me, using zenity, applied to everything but folders:
mv %F $(zenity --file-selection --directory)
Copy would be the same but with cp, for folders it needs mv -r / cp -r.

[Solved]No policy actions and smoothness

Hello, I've got fresh Arch install (with old /home partition) and I use KDE as my desktop envoirment. I've installed only few packages from group kdebase and I can't change many things in System Settings (ex. KDM theme and time), since it doesn't ask for root password as it did.
Anotheer thing I don't like about about my fresh Arch installation is smoothness - it's horrible, when I'm doing operations on windows (maximalizing/minimalizing/moving/etc) kwin is using a lot of CPU [running on e6750 2.66 ghz] and it seems like lagging.
Could anyone help me?

@up
Thanks for replying. So I've enabled HW acceleration for flash and it made no difference. My g-card is GF 8600 and I'm using the nouveau driver as arch wiki recommended. Well I didn't notice such problems when I was using nvidia drivers, but I've installed few other things, like many xorg packages/drivers so I'm not sure which thing actually broke the whole thing. Do you think that's worth trying to remove nouveau and restore nvidia drivers?

Chapter point End Action not working

I'm creating a a training DVD in which one timeline has several spots where the DVD should pause while the class discusses the scene that has just played. I've added 5 seconds of black to mark those spots, and at the beginning of the black I have a chapter point that has an End Action to go to a menu with a "Continue" button. At the end of the black I have another chapter point that the "Continue" button links to. On one of the point that route to the "Continue" menu, it doesn't route to the menu, but just jumps back to the last chapter point...essentially looping that section. It doesn't do this when I "Preview" from the main menu...all works correctly there, but when I Build the project to DVD Folders and play on my PC, that's when it happens.
Steve Brame

Nope...no overrides are set. I have several other chapter points on the timeline that are set up identical to this one, and they link correctly to their respective menus...only this one didn't. I deleted the point and recreated it and now it works. I'd noticed several other Chapter Point issues here that were solved by this action.
Thanks!
