You are being very modest. AFAIK no Debian developer is attending ILUGC
meets.
As an aside, in the beginning I began using Linux just because it was the
easily available
Unix clone and did not know anything about contributing to it. I was
inspired by you and
got drawn towards Debian and FOSS.

Apart from two or three, there are not even package maintainers in ILUGC
meets.
And there are quite a few FOSS contributors in IITMLUG. It would be nice to
have
people from IITM LUG attend ILUGC meets. It will definitely help improve
ILUGC
meets a lot. And IITM people also can occasionally get to know things. :-)

Samsung Laser printers works fine with most linux distro with their

 I think you should use unzip command. I am not sure whether it comes
 with fedora by default. If not you should install it using yum. 

unzip in fedora works for me (also in Mandriva, Opensuse and Debian
GNU/Linux)

zip is not windows specific. zip files work well on Linux well. I have
tested it and works under rhel 4, 5 , sles 9, 10.

[Ilugc] [OT][rfc]Data card feedback requested .

2010-09-07 Thread Thyagarajan தியாகராஜன்
Dear Guyz,

I live in chennai and i would like to hear your feedback with regard to the
service of MTS-Blaze.Some feedbacks on the net on MTS-Blaze is not that
good.
I would like to buy this for two reason

1) It has a prepaid plan i.e-Rs.999 for unlimited
2) It has a minimum plan of 198 rupees for 250 MB- this i can use it in my
lean roaming month.

However, I would like to take your feedback with regard to speed.
I also hear that on an unlimited plan after 30 Gb for 30 Days, one document
in the net says that the service automatically changes to CDMA 1.x speed?, i
am not clear with this, can some one through some light on it.

regards,
Thyagarajan Shanmugham

Dude,
What are you trying to do?

If you are trying to educate people on the list you could simply point to a
better written documentation like

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/select.html

or write a simple to understand step by step explanation instead of
dumping incoherent
sentences.

Your efforts will be much admired(I hope).

Dear all,

United Institute of Technology (www.uit.ac.in), started in 2009, affiliated

for their internal infrastructure

Asterisk / Trixbox for Voice communication
Zimbra for E-mail / Collaborative messaging
Moodle for Learning Management System (
http://ekluvya.uit.ac.in/moodle/login/index.php)
OpenLDAP for authentication

Apart from the above, LinuXpert Systems have setup a 90 seat FOSS lab for
the department of CSE using Fedora-13 (4500+ packages) and they are
about to do all their practicals in GNU/Linux platform.

Ahh thats really bad .  That too since it is coming from a college
which has a FOSS club .
Yeah students as your senior has suggested kindly go for newer topics .

 I have a very bad gut feeling that you are repeating the same because
you are very comfortable with that particular technology and don't
want to try anything new . It's ok for an year but year by year if
same topics come .. I am sad to say that it reflects many 'things'  .

I am not telling this as an advice . All I am saying is in the pure
spirit of FOSS we love trying out things and our world keeps on
changing . Finally I suggest you to use some bleeding edge distro :D

Pavithran

Thanks, do you think all our work/efforts are getting paid.

All the FOSS labs we have setup so far is completely done at free of cost.
The institutions pay only for
our expenses and we don't see any commercials in them.

If it is a commercial activity, I won't be posting them in this list.  We
setup FOSS labs to promote FOSS in education and not to promote our
business.

 I went into a shop to buy a USB flash drive. The guy had
 various kinds
 sony, mosser bauer etc. Asked him to recommend. He said
 Sony - I looked
 at it - system requirements: windows/MAC. Then looked at
 Mosser Bauer -
 system requirements: windows/MAC/Linux, and under linux:
 kernel 2.4.2 or
 later! Guess which one I bought?

Transcend seems to have good Linux support. The System requirement
info in a recently purchased 8gb drive is '... Linux kernel 2.4.2 or later'.

Hi,
In the past few days i had a complaint from many of the juniors:
After ubuntu installation, everything works fine until you boot into
windows. If you restart the system after booting windows once, it shows *no
operating system found*.
Many people think that this is a problem with Ubuntu :-( But unfortunately
this is an antifeature of some windows applications.

If you have faced such problem the following link may help you:
