Re: [Ilugc] Data card

Prasanna  others,

I set up a new mobile broadband connection with India and Airtel as
values. But it doesn't show in the wireless menu with an icon that
looks like a bow with a drawn string, in the top bar of the screen.

Then I did dmesg and got the following as part of the rather lengthy
script (or whatever you call it) in the terminal. Looks like the
machine sees the data card. --

 Connect the device and then run dmesg | tail. Copy the output as
 reply. This will help to know whether driver is available or not. I
 hope driver will be available by default.

 Is there any good tool like spiceworks for complete it asset management
 systems and helpdesk.

 I have seen ocs and GLPi integartion, which works as like spiceworks and
 also openaudit which has very limited features.


If you have already *seen* it with ocs and glpi integration, then
identify what are the missing spiceworks features.

Do not assume that everyone here has/knows spiceworks and know the
difference(s) to be able to recommend a solution.

I think it is getting detected as a CD-ROM. You need some tool (I
guess one is mentioned in this thread already) to make your modem to
show up.

Go to that website, read documentation on how to use the tool and you
can use your modem with Ubuntu.

PrasannaKumar

[Ilugc] 4273π: Bioinformatics education on low cost ARM hardware rapberrypi

2013-08-26 Thread km
 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2105/14/243
Background

Teaching bioinformatics at universities is complicated by typical computer
classroom settings. As well as running software locally and online,
students should gain experience of systems administration. For a future
career in biology or bioinformatics, the installation of software is a
useful skill. We propose that this may be taught by running the course on
GNU/Linux running on inexpensive Raspberry Pi computer hardware, for which
students may be granted full administrator access.
Results

We release 4273*π*, an operating system image for Raspberry Pi based on
Raspbian Linux. This includes minor customisations for classroom use and
includes our Open Access bioinformatics course, *4273π Bioinformatics for
Biologists*. This is based on the final-year undergraduate module BL4273,
run on Raspberry Pi computers at the University of St Andrews, Semester 1,
academic year 2012–2013.
Conclusions

4273*π* is a means to teach bioinformatics, including systems
administration tasks, to undergraduates at low cost.
