[ilugd] Minutes of Meeting Linux Delhi Oct Meet
The meeting started off with usual introductions with people reciting how long they have been using linux(and less about who they are) The first talk was Sudev Barar talking about his reason for using linux and forcing a lot of others to use linux. The five (or was it six) main reasons he gave for using linux and advocating it was 1) Money 2) Money 3) Money 4) More Money 5) Even More Money After that there was a long tea-break with or chai-break as the students from School of Convergence put it. Raj Shekhar arrived just in the nick of time before his talk and got his surprise gift ( a Maharaja Tux T-Shirt ) . Raj Shekhar delved at length on how to get help from man pages, info documentation and other sources of help from the system including /usr/share/doc Finally Arjun talked about basic Unix Shell scripting using bash. Then some of the members left for PVR Saket. -Tarun ___ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/

These days one does not need a technical degree to be in sys admin.. and there are abundant of sys admin ( non-technical back ground ) in India. I think you're wrong here completely. Take my live example here. I've been into GNU and Linux for the past 5 years. I'm able to now grade myself into Power User category too. I've cleared interviews from Wipro, Dell and many other companies. Got offer letters concerning the package plan. And then when I tell them that my academics are bad, people get stunted. Before I reveal this they say that I'm technically sound for the role of job they have and once I disclose about my degree they say they've got many company norms that don't allow undergraduates blah blah.. My answer to them, Fine.. Go, find a graduate with better skills. I did my S.L.C (60%) from Nepal. I did my +2 (40%) from Nepal. I did my B.Sc (IT) Distance Education Degree from Delhi from Manipal University (Final Semester Result awaited). Still people, organizations prefer degrees over technical skills. I'm not sure wether they should or shouldn't. This is one good reason for me to have been jobless since 1 year. So my conclusion up till now says: If you need a job, Go get a degree.

[ilugd] Re: System Administrator(level 1) -Urgent
With IIT degree in Com. Science, there could be better things to do than be in Sys Admin. It is a thankless , low paid job. thankless true I disagree. Depends on how good the previous administrator was. In general, all maintainace(back bone) work can be called thankless. Primarily because interaction between the prospectivce thanks givers and the maintainers happens ONLY when something goes wrong with the back bone. However, a good administartor who has recently replaced a bad administrator is likely to receive maximum thank you's. Life is good for such a administrator for a few months. I highly recommend a change of company after that ! ;o) low paid not true Low paid a low level. Again because every who knows how to share an internet connection, install a firewall, create new users calls himself/herself an administrator. Result is numerous so called administrators. If we count them in, yes its a low paying job. However, if we count people who are worthy of being called administrators. Not a low paid job at all ! HR is this country needs to go through a compulsory administrator practice before things improve here. ;o) Unless the HR realizes the pain involved in attending a complaint, that was created because...taar nikal gayee hai, jhuka nahin jaa rahathey wont realize what an administrator goes through.

[ilugd] Opensource video card proposed in LKML
http://kerneltrap.org/node/view/4057 Linux: Status Update On Open Source Friendly Graphics Card Timothy Miller offered a summary of the recent discussions surrounding his proposal to create a free software and open-source friendly graphics card [story], I'm still trying to digest all the feedback I've been getting. It's overwhelming and gratifying, and I want to offer my gratitude for all the discussion and ideas. He noted that as the active discussion evolves toward the actual implementation of the card, his intention is to move it from the lkml to another more topical mailing list. He then went on to discuss the features that will most likley be in the new graphics card. Timothy pointed out that the card would have a reprogrammable field-programmable gate array (FPGA) primarily to reduce non-recurring engineering (NRE) costs. He explains, reprogramability is not its primary purpose. The primary reason to use an FPGA is to minimize NRE for manufacturing. However, as a result, users will be able to download updates. Additionally, those who are dedicated enough to reprogram it completely will find the necessary documentation to do so. Finally, it is my desire that we would release the source code to the FPGA for obsoleted products, however, it's too early to make promises. He went on to further describe the Graphics Processor Unit (GPU), explaining, what I'm thinking is that the setup engine will be [a] general-purpose-ish CPU with special vector and matrix instructions. This way, the transformation stage will occur in software executed by a specialized processor. Additionally, the lighting phase might be done here as well. The setup engine would produce triangle parameters which are fed to a rasterizer which does Gouraud shading and texture-mapping. That feeds pixels into something that handles antialiasing and alpha blending, etc. He noted that this offers three advantages: the engine is fully customizable by the user community simply by writing code, 2d emulation is included, and anything missing can be emulated. He also pointed out three disadvantages: the triangle rate would be limited by the speed of the processor, transform and lighting (TL) functionality would be serialized, and phong shading and bump mapping may be impossible or too slow.

[ilugd] Towards a World Intellectual Wealth Organisation
Original Message Subject: [Fsf-friends] I think FSFI should endorse this Date: Tue, 26 Oct 2004 13:08:41 -0700 (PDT) From: Krishna Pagadala To: FSF Friends Towards a World Intellectual Wealth Organisation http://www.fsfeurope.org/documents/wiwo.en.html Original Message Ends --- The Geneva Declaration [1] is an impressive step towards the creation of a broad coalition of people, organisations and countries [2] demanding that the international community re-think the goals and mechanisms for awarding monopoly control over different kinds of knowledge. It offers many constructive, concrete suggestions for changes in WIPO goals, policies and priorities, and provides ample and insightful arguments for redesign of the copyright and patent bargains to better serve the public interest of all of humankind. We are convinced that new answers sometimes require new questions, not more careful repetition of old questions. A World Intellectual Property Organisation will always, understandably, lean towards applying the pre-selected tool-set of monopolisation that it refers to as Intellectual Property; a term that we find to be ideologically charged and dangerously oblivious to the significant differences that exist between the many areas of law that it tries to subsume. While it may look at better, possibly more socially sustainable ways of granting ownership-like monopolies over different forms of knowledge, WIPO will not have an easy time looking for alternative solutions. WIPO is not what we need. We need a World Intellectual Wealth Organisation, dedicated to the research and promotion of novel and imaginative ways to encourage the production and dissemination of knowledge. Granting limited monopolies and limited control over some kinds of knowledge may be part of this new organisations tool-set, but not the only one, and maybe not even the most important one. We endorse and support the Geneva Declaration, and invite its drafters, signatories, and the United Nations to start thinking now not only about what the role of WIPO should be, but rather what kind of organisation we need in its place.
