I do not have the output right now. However, the other things were Bus
# and similar. For this entry for the Haier CE100, the number was
201e:2009 and nothing was mentioned beside it. There was no description on the 
type of device.

Sorry cannot provide the output anymore.

In any case try 'usb_modeswitch -v 0x201e -p 0x2009'

However this assumes that system already knows the target product id and
message string (if different from default). If it doesn't then contact
customer service to get them both and issue 'usb_modeswitch -v 0x201e -p
0x2009 -V 0x201e -P target product id -M control message'

[Ilugc] Fwd: [chennaipy 714] PSF Sprints - Call For Applications

2011-01-28 Thread Shrinivasan T
A forward mail from chennaipy list.


-- Forwarded message --
From: Brian Curtin brian.cur...@gmail.com
Date: Fri, Jan 28, 2011 at 6:27 AM
Subject: [chennaipy 714] PSF Sprints - Call For Applications
To: Chennaipy chenna...@googlegroups.com


Hello Chennaipy Python Users!

On behalf of the Python Software Foundation’s sponsored sprint group,
I wanted to drop your group a quick note introducing us. If you’re
already familiar with our sponsored sprints, you’ll be happy to know
we made a few changes to help both sprint groups and Python even more.

The PSF recently set aside funding to be distributed to groups who
spend time contributing to the Python ecosystem, often in the form of
development sprints. Our goal is to help you help Python, so whether
it’s buying meals or renting meeting space for your all-day hackathon,
we have a budget set aside to reimburse your expenses up to $300 USD
(up from $250).
If your goal is to make the Python world a better place, and you work
on the problems facing Python today, we want to help you. We’re
looking for groups of hackers that spend their time fixing and
expanding the wide variety of Python interpreters, libraries, tools,
and anything else affecting the community.

We’re also looking for groups who want to help and get started but
don’t have the resources to get together. Whether your group is
separated by a train ride or lacking a shared space, we want to help
you. On-boarding new contributors to open source Python projects is an
especially important area that we’d like to work with.

This means if you have a Python project and you want to sprint -- we
want to help you.

Some sprints we’ve sponsored include the porting of Genshi to Python
3, improvements to packaging (Distribute/distutils), and most
recently, the PyPy winter sprint in Switzerland.

If your group is interested in hosting a sprint, check out the full
details of our call for applications at http://www.pythonsprints.com/cfa/
and contact us at spri...@python.org.

Thanks for your time, and happy sprinting!

[Ilugc] Linux Skills Are Hot on Improving IT Hiring Front

2011-01-28 Thread Shrinivasan T
The number of Linux-based projects is rapidly increasing all over
this industry, Intel's Linux and Open Source Technologist Dirk
Hohndel told the Linux Foundation. More and more devices and systems
and services are built based on Linux, and therefore, more and more
manufacturers and vendors are looking for Linux talent.

Linux professionals also tend to get a significant salary premium of
as much as 10 percent over other IT workers, Dice reported last year.

[Ilugc] Formatting USB stick as a CD

2011-01-28 Thread Prem Kurian Philip
I would appreciate some help with formatting a USB memory stick on Linux
such that it appears as a CD drive.

Please note that this is an ordinary USB memory stick - not a U3 device.
The formatting should allow the USB stick to appear as a CD drive on
Windows as well.

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you,
Prem

Could you be more specific? What you are asking lies in my area of
 knowledge and experience though I dunno about Linux.

But the ideas are the same.

The boot record in the USB/hard disk are fundamentally different from
 that found on CD/DVD. Moreover only ISO can be burnt on CD.

What do you really want?

Why don't you dump an ISO image to a USB stick? But it would not boot...

What do you actually want? if you want a bootable and/or autorun options
like cd that is simple to do. Search for 'startup disk creator'.

This link [1] has steps about using tools in Windows and Ubuntu to do the
same. It has steps for doing it manually too which should work for most iso
images and in all Gnu/Linux systems. Similar tools are present in Fedora et
al too. Search for it.
