[ilugd] Which wi-fi PCI card?

2008-01-29 Thread Amit Sharma
Hi,

My vendor told me that D-Link's G510 which is 54 mbps is not supported by Linux 
instead G520 which is 108mbps is supported.

Since i have Access Points of 54 mbps hence i would like to install 54mbps PCI 
cards only. Is my vendor correct in saying that Linux supports only 108 mbps 
PCI cards?

please help.

regards,
amit

Don't know specifically about AIX, but the read built-in command

 It should have the following.

 - Separate Login for each client
 - Separate login for each Support executive
 - Client should be assigned to a particular Support executive
 - Preferably some level some escalation (not necessarily)
 - And all other basic features
 - Various kind of Report generation is also desirable

I am doing it this way now. I read whatever there is on the standard input
into a variable :

read -d ^d  VAR


the ^d signifies that the end of file should be used as the delimiter to
determine the end of input instead of a newline. I don't really need to
process the standard input line by line, so i suppose this should be good
enough.

Thanks

You could just read from stdin:

read -d ^d 1

See the I/O redirection [1] chapter of the Advanced bash scripting
guide for more details. It is even possible to do random access on a
file (probably not on stdin though).

I have a pci card from Nehru Place that I use as an AP:

No, he is totally incorrect and is misguiding you. The linux support
for a pci wireless card is not dependent upon the speed. It is the
chip on the card which matters. Find out which chip is the card using
and then check whether there is a linux driver for that wireless chip
available or not. You may refer to the following sites:

http://linuxwireless.org/
http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/

There are some wireless cards which don't have a linux driver but you
can configure most of them with ndiswrapper which uses the windows
drivers.

http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/



 regards,
 amit

Also, using the latest kernels would help since there a number of
wireless drivers have been added in the newer kernels.

My read was in the context of reading the piped output from a previous
command in my shell script. Hence if i have

read -d ^d VAR
echo $VAR

in a file called myscript.sh

then
$ cat AFILE | ./myscript.sh

also achieves the same thing. Although as Gora said, the newlines get

This will work, presuming that the ^d is a literal

Hi All,

Thanks for responding to the mail so quick.

Well, now i am facing some more problems. I am only able to login when one
of the user is logged into the system through on the local system; i;e using
the gui and not remote login, making it mandatory to physically access the
server in case of a reboot.

Is there any way of accessing the remote desktop of the server without
logging in locally ?

Also, once a user is logged-in, than on VNC Client it does not asks for
username and only asks for the password of the user who is already logged in
locally.

Any opinions??

Smruti

There are many articles about running VNC as a permanent background
process so that GDM can be utilized for login remotely.  However, is
this what you really need?  You do know about the -Y option to ssh,
right?

[ilugd] [Cross Post] Code review tool

2008-01-29 Thread Pradeepto Bhattacharya
Hi,

http://www.review-board.org/

 For too long, code reviews have been too much of a chore. This is
largely due to the lack of quality tools available, leaving developers
to resort to e-mail and bug tracker-based solutions.

At VMware, we've traditionally done code reviews over e-mail. A
significant amount of time was wasted in forming review requests,
switching between the diff and the e-mail, and trying to understand
what parts of the code the reviewer was referring to. We decided to
fix all that. 

 Cheers!
