local cycle + walk, Glendruid/Brennanstown Dolmen and Tully's high cross

Today, lá fheile Padraic, we went to scout mass, had Irish breakfast at home, cycled to near Brennanstown luas, jumped over a wall, visited dolmen and stream and valley. Met Mary and Rocky. Cycled on Laghanstown road to Tully's church. Cycled on cul de sac, over motorway, over 2 gates home via Kilternan. Whew! 17k cycle.

3 bananas, 2 apples, 2 oranges, water, apple, purple dilutable

Glendruid/Brennanstown Dolmen

We continued minor Freeciv craze. Maeve played a bit then gave up and played on cbeebies website. Kate started playing. As the Irish.

We more or less used the directions from Brennanstown Vale on megalithomania site. The lane in Brennanstown lane now ends in a new 6ft wall which we climbed over. The start of that route should be changed to Carrickmines Luas stop. No wall climbing needed from there.

Start at Carrickmines Luas stop. Walk along the Luas line until Brennanstown Luas stop (not an operating Luas stop). There is plenty space to walk beside Luas line now (Mar 2011) planting is still very young. At Brennanstown Luas stop climb rail and climb over wall into valley directly OR easier to go longer way around out of Luas stop on other side, enter field and go around under the bridge into the valley. 

The walk in the valley beside stream in woods with big old trees is very nice. It is suspected that this might be NAMA lands now. A shopping center and housing/buisness developments might have been constructed here!! :-P

Solved cygwin + windows7 STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION problem

[1 Mar 2011 12:39:14] Solved cygwin + windows7 STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION problem.

User that installed cygwin was "Someone Else" Administrator.
ls -R /cygdrive/c/cygwin # showed mixed ownership between "Someone Else" and "Me Myself" both Administrator.


Solution:
  export PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH
  chown -R me.myself /cygdrive/c/cygwin
  chmod 777 $TMP
  # stop all cygwin processes (close windows and use Task Manager to kill hangers on)
  start ash and run rebaseall

Killing processes in ash:

  export PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH
  ps -e
  PIDS=$(ps -e |grep -E -v "ash|PID" |sed s/^.// |awk '{print $1}')
  kill $PIDS
  kill -9 $PIDS
  ps -e

This is why chmod 777 $TMP is needed:
  ash$ rebaseall
  rebaseall: '/cygdrive/c/Users/JAMES~1.COL/AppData/Local/Temp' is not writable

This also happened:
  ash$ rebaseall 
  ReBaseImage (/usr/bin/cygcrypt-0.dll) failed with last error = 6

  ash$ cd \cygwin\bin
  ash$ mv cygcrypt-0.dll cygcrypt-0.dll.hmm  #?
  ash$ cp cygcrypt-0.dll.hmm cygcrypt-0.dll  #?

Finally:
  ash$ rebaseall
  /usr/bin/cygcrypto-0.9.8.dll: skipped because nonexistent
  /usr/bin/cygssl-0.9.8.dll: skipped because nonexistent

Cygwin now working.
Final step to make sure all is clean: Run cygwin setup.exe to update.



What happened to cause problem:
Cygwin was pre-installed by another user someone.else.
And I ran a cygwin update as my user me.myself.
No obvious cygwin errors but cygwin DLL must have been updated and rebaseing had errors.
 errors are gone


Finally found this on web which had part of this solution:

http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin/120053

Actually, you might be able to get away with something like this from
the DOS prompt.

c:
cd \cygwin\bin
ren cygcrypt-0.dll cygcrypt-0.dll.hmm
copy cygcrypt-0.dll.hmm cygcrypt-0.dll


If you can do the rename but not the copy then reinstalling (via
setup.exe's Reinstall option) cygcrypt-0.dll from the crypt package
might work.

cgf

Oops, I figured out why this was happening and it was rather silly on
my part. I installed cygwin under the Administrator account and was
trying to run rebaseall under a different account. I thought using the
"run as administrator" option when opening ash would give it enough
privileges but apparently it's not enough. Running ash under the
actual Administrator account made the error go away and solved my
status_access_violation problems. Thanks for the help everyone.





Also changed Microsoft Security Essentials exclude scans in C:\cygwin and C:\cygwin\bin
