 Yesterday's news, of Raj moving on, is shocking. I met him through ilugd
 and came to know better of him through various activities of ilugd that he
 helped organize. He was brutally  honest and that made him special. He was
 special because with those piercing words, he could get through to you
 better. Yesterday night, I visited his drawing room, which played host to
 many linux-dellhi events. Niyam playfully called it opium den. The opium
 den was filled with people, Andrew, Gora and Friji. The trade-mark green
 camouflage was lying life-less on the low diwan. For a second, I imagined a
 cup of coffee and creme, which was kind of ritual commencement of
 linux-delhi meetings, with Kishore bringing the coffee and Raj arranging
 for cups and creme. The cup of coffee is not there any more, that table is
 missing and more importantly Raj has checked out of the opium den.

Subject: Invitation to a meeting on draft National Competition Policy
in MCA on Friday, 19th August 2011 at 3 PM

Dear Sir/ Madam,

Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) has constituted a Committee for
framing of National Competition Policy and related matters, under the
Chairmanship of Shri Dhanendra Kumar, Former Chairperson of
Competition Commission of India. This Committee has submitted a draft
National Competition Policy to the Ministry which is placed at
http://www.mca.gov.in/Ministry/Draft_Policy.html.

As would be noticed, this Policy is aimed at laying down an
overarching policy framework for infusing competition principles in
various policies, statutes and regulations and promoting a competitive
market structure in the economy, thereby striving to achieve maximum
economy efficiency in various spheres, and public welfare. This Policy
also includes some suggestions on the methodology, and in the Annexure
I gives the background of the various steps taken so far, and in
Annexure II, an illustrative list of certain parameters (based on
international experiences and guidelines of OECD/DFID) for undertaking
Competition Impact Assessment of concerned policies, regulations and
procedures.

MCA has invited comments from Chambers of the Industries/Commerce,
Corporates, Law firms, Members of civil society and other stakeholders
on this draft policy, by 22nd August.  Comments can be sent by mail at
di...@mca.gov.in.

What should be subject to Competition Impact Assessment:

The draft statement of the NCP proposes to assess effects emanating
from various statutes, regulations framed therein, policies and
practices (of Central and State Governments) on competition in a
market. How should these be prioritised, and what else may be subject
to Competition Impact Assessment?

Parameters for carrying out Competition Impact Assessment:

Globally, several organsiations such as OECD, DFID have development
methodologies to conduct Competition Impact Assessment. A suggestive
list of such parameters is presented in Annexure – II to the draft
NCP.


What should be the parameters while carrying out Competition Impact
Assessment in India?

Who should carry out Competition Impact Assessment?

The draft statement of the NCP proposes that different Enterprises/
Departments/ Ministries at the Central, State and sub-State level will
carry out Competition Impact Assessment on their own with technical
assistance from the National Competition Policy Council.


Should Competition Impact Assessment be carried out by different
Enterprises/ Departments/ Ministries in a decentralised manner or it
should be centralised function to be carried out by the National
Competition Policy Council?  If it is to be done on a decentralised
basis, what steps should be taken to develop capacities to carry out
Competition Impact Assessment in various
Ministries/Departments/Enterprises on an ongoing basis.


Interface with sectoral regulators:

The draft statement of NCP proposes to bring in harmony with respect
to competition in the functioning of various sectoral regulators.


What are the various methods to ensure that the approach to regulation
competition across sectors remains in conformity with the Competition
Policy Principles and Competition Act 2002?

In this context, it has further been decided to hold discussions/
consultations with various stakeholders on the draft National
Competition Policy and its principles/parameters. Consultation with
representatives of Consumer groups and members of Civil society will
be held on Friday, 19th August 2011 at 3PM at the MCA Conference Room,
5th floor, Shastri Bhawan, New Delhi. The meeting will be chaired by
Secretary/ Additional Secretary, MCA, and attended by the Chairman and
Members of the Committee. You are kindly requested to attend this
meeting and share with us your views on the subject.

In case you are not in a position to attend the meeting, we shall
deeply appreciate your views/ comments on email.

A line in confirmation may please be sent to me at lunita.i...@gmail.com

Lunita Hijam

[ilugd] SOLVED : No sound in HP Mini

2010-11-17 Thread Sudev Barar
Earlier I had reported that everything works fine in HP Mini notebook
but sound in firefox while visiting sites like youtube etc.

It turned out that since I had migrated my home directory from earlier
version of Ubuntu I had to delete .asoundrc file and .marcomedia 
.adobe directories. Thereafter I had to log out and login again to get
the sound working perfectly in applications like youtube etc..

The interesting part and pointer to the likely problem source was that
a new user created on the same machine could get everything working.

You will have to be able to access DHCP server and configure it even

Look at using next-server in dhcpd configuration. Google will list many answers.

Other alternative is to build a independent subnet and control this on
the downside by dhcp+ltsp server and only take gateway link from the

 My /home is 40 GB abd tar.gz file comes to 20 GB and takes about 1 hour 10 
 mins to create.

 My question is - Is there faster way to take the backup?

Where is the back up kept? On the same machine and hard disk? Not good at all.

Try rsync and you can put the script in crontab to backup on to
another machine or within same machine of different hard disk.

[ilugd] Audio Microphone

2009-08-18 Thread Sudev Barar
I am trying to pick up some pointers on how to set up audio and
recording (microphone) settings. I want to use Skype and it works but
the audio quality and volume of output is very low. And more
irritatingly the microphone pick up is very low. Even wihen I use
headset and external mic there is very low clarity.

I have tried various settings under volume control and alsa mixer.
Pointers would be welcome.

Similar system  under M$ system works perfectly for using skype with
need for headphone and external speaker.

I am using ThinkpadR61 with Ubuntu 9.04

 Do the speaker and the microphone work in any other application? Are

Recording in any application is very low. I am able to hear sound

 on panel, choosing Add to Panel..., and selecting the Volume
 Control applet), what device(s) do you see in the drop-down at
 the top? One of the devices should be Alsa. Try choosing that,

Choosing Alsa mixer

 and it might give you access to more control switches. For
 example, with Alsa, I get a Microphone Boost which helps a lot
 in increasing the microphone sensitivity.

Already tried boost to max (without feed back hum) in both internal
and external mic.

As I said in comparison the win machines is able to do Skype
conversation without need of external speakers or mic. The only way I
am able to have minimum volume conversation is by use of external
headphones and mic (and that too set at max for mic)

 As I told you before, I am new to open source technology. When I heard
 that it is a kind of philanthropy, I wanted to be a part. Now I heard from
 you guys about the workshop.

?? Guys did I miss any announcement? Nikihil which workshop are you
refering to? It would be useful to know what you are discussing.

But answering your questions in general:
 Can I attend the workshop?,

By an large all workshops by the community are open or open but
chargeable, Very rarely a workshop is closed like a workshop for
students of particular college. Here also it is possible to attend.

 If yes then how am I going to benifit from it?
 What I am going to learn there?

Both depend on what the workshop is for and how much are you willing to absorb.

 I live in Himachal Pradesh, and if I'll come, it will take 8 hours to reach
 there. But still I want to come.

That is quite and enthusiastic response.

 My motive of asking these questions is that I am a pure beginer .And I dont
 want to find myself at a place where things goes above my head. Is my
 current level enough for me to be with you all.

It is dependent on you entirely and your motives / drive to attend.
But without much input on which workshop you are refering to it is
impossible to elaborate further.

[ilugd] [HELP] How to count number of process

2009-07-24 Thread Sudev Barar
I have made a script that starts netcat repeatedly in listen mode. Once
incoming data is started the script fires off another NC instance and
previous NC process then dies when data string ends. I want to count how
many netcat processes were launched during a particular testing period.

One option is to build a counter before firing up each instance of netcat.
Any other method? I would not like to touch the netcat launch script right
now.

Problem: the number of of netcat process started run in excess of
84000 (a process a second) so the counter simply restarts. So I guess
it is script modification to add/update counter to a file and then
read it/reset it.

This will add number of steps
read file value

[ilugd] SMS from computer

2009-05-26 Thread Sudev Barar
I am trying to set up my Reliance USB connector to send/receive SMS
(And after this also voice calls) The Windows CD that comes along with
mentions that this could be also used to do voice calls and SMS's.

I needed to do a little hack similar to described at
http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthread.php?p=2791193 to get it working
with Ubuntu 9.04 due to missing usbserial module. Now I can get the
ZTE dongle to work as ppp connection very well and it give me decent
speeds. Tail of system message when I plug the device in appended.

Not really clear as to what all I need to install. I am trying to use
smsd / smstools / gnokii to do the needful. (Kannel seems beyond me
for now) As you can see from system messages, blow, the device gets
recognised simultaneously as ttyUSB0 ttyUSB1 ttyUSB2

Now I am trying to use sendsms command. This sort of ends up saying
message could not be sent. Now I am not sure if this is something to
do with net getting gnokii settings right or not getting it right in
/etc/smsd.conf

Pointer and brickbats welcome ;-)

 can remove the nfs filesystem from the /etc/mtab and remount.

 Both (NFS server, NFS client) servers are 1000mbps duplex full.

 hdparm on NFS client you mean? NFSclient server is 15k RPM disks (2 T)

Re: [ilugd] Employee takeover of Satyam- why not? - but then what?

2009-03-19 Thread Sudev Barar
2009/3/20 Abhishek Choudhary hi_ped...@yahoo.com:

 Think of the possibility. A company of the employee, by the employees, for 
 the employees. If democracy has any advantage over monarchy, then such a 
 takeover makes sense.

 Would Satyam become something like a Firefox or Apache foundation then? The 
 per employee share in the profits would increase (no I am not an economist - 
 please provide technical inputs)


There are examples of employee owned companies making successful
corporations. Not easy but doable. Only employees of Satyam can make a
collective decision on this while we can watch from sidelines.

However this need not mean open source or otherwise.

 RTI surley seems to be a good bet. Well in that case why just PMO, lets
 shoot and RTI query to major government establishments in our respective
 regions, this would surely be an eye opener to the LUGs accross the country.
 This way we ll have a decent idea about the actual adoption of open source
 by the goverment enterprises and it would be an eye opener for most of the
 goverment office.

Can we have a format made online? Something like:

==
To
Principal Information officer
Ministry of XYZ
New Delhi.

Subject: Application under RTI Act for information on mailing solution
being used.

Dear Sir,
In view of recent news article (need cite here) about PMO loosing
vital information due to mailing software being beset with virus and
subsequent adoption of Open Source solution. I would like to request
the following information:
1. The software for emailing solution in use under your ministry is
proprietary or open source
2. No data/information has been lost in the ministry due to any virus
or similar malware attacks.
3. If there is loss of information then period for which records are lost.

Yours etc etc

Can other comment on this draft? All it takes is to attache a Rs10
postal order and send it away.

[ilugd] [Report] Workshop at Ideal Institute of Technology Nov 15

2008-11-15 Thread Sudev Barar
Captioned workshop was organised by the institute and CSI on campus.
The audience consisted of students and faculty from the college plus
some faculty from nearby colleges, numbering about 50 people The
following program had been drawn.

* 11.00am-11.30am: Free software: What is it, and how best to make use
of it: GoraMohanty
* 11.30am-noon: The Indian Linux Users' Group, Delhi: SudevBarar
* Noon-1pm: Open Source Software in use: SupreetSethi, others
  o Operating systems: Linux, FreeBSD? , etc.
  o System services: Mail, Databases, etc.
  o Rapid web development: Django, RoR?
  o Frontier areas of technology: Mobiles, embedded devices, robotics.
  o FOSS in education.

However due to schedule conflicts only I was able to turn up. and
covered the first two topics. Few question put by audience were
discussed and answered supported by members of CSI. It was felt that
another session could be organized to cover the hands on topic at a
later date.

[ilugd] Mail authentication

2008-09-10 Thread Sudev Barar
How can I show / prove that the copy of email shown by some one is not
tampered with when compared to original email?

Scenario - A sent an email to a B and D. B has tampered with the text
of email and forwarded to C. C comes to D with a print copy of email
from B. How can D show C that the original email by A and forwarded
email by C are modified. D has shown C the original from A but C is
not convinced and is casting aspersion on A and D of showing tampered
emails.

In similar scenario how does pgp signed mail proves the case except
show genuineness of senders signatures?

Sorry if this is something so simple that I am missing the obvious.

A basic check that I will do is - get full mail headers of mail sent to D and 
of that sent to C, read headers from bottom to up to find the discrepancy.

 Don't you think in that case, the result will be negative, since mail header 
 in mail
 sent to D != mail sent to C because, both the mails are originating from
 different sources.

Exactly the problem. And D does not have access to machines of A or B.
Only original email of A sent to him and B and access to C.

How does pgp signature generate hash and is there something out there
which could be fed in given text and public key of A to generate hash
and compare it with hash appearing on the emaiil copy or C as
forwarded by B?

 If your mail program supports GPG/PGP (as most modern MUAs do), it will
 verify the hashes and signatures automatically.  You don't need to
 start doing the hashing and verifying the signatures manually.

Yep thunderbird/evolution support and verify signatures and hash
automatically BUT  on mails that are received by me. However in this
scenario I am trying to make verification of message from two sources
that are different. I want to prove that one of them is showing false

How does pgp signature generate hash and is there something out there
which could be fed in given text and public key of A to generate hash
and compare it with hash appearing on the emaiil copy or C as
forwarded by B?

 Good time to start using PGP :). Lets have a key-signing party this software
 freedom day :).

Yes. But I am using gmail for list work and that does not (yet?)
support signing. Better that I move to using MUA for all mails.

email conversations it becomes a whole lot easier to carry on
meaningful dialogue and you can snip out what is not meaningful too.
Most people just hit reply button and top post leaving prior message

All views are welcome and more important is to get your voice heard.
As you put it too many of us are lurkers and are afraid to ask. What
is the worst that will happen? You will not get an answer? BUT look at
it positively you MAY get a whole lot of knowledge. If you do not ask
you cannot get. If you ask you may get and if you pursue you will get.

[ilugd] USB wireless device

2008-08-22 Thread Sudev Barar
My laptops wireless gave up its ghost just a month after the warranty
is over. HP offered to rectify it with minimum estimate of Rs5000
which could possibly go up. So from Nehru Place I purchased a Netgear
WG111V3 USB wireless dongle which obviously was certified to work with
various M$ flavors. Vendor told me if you open the box its yours
without refund unless I was able to prove that the stuff did not work
under claimed compatible O/S.

I am using Ubuntu 8.04 and a quick search showed possiibilities of
getting this tweaked in to working from 5.04 onwards. So I brought one
for Rs1100 including bill. On plugging it in the device showed up in
lsusb and in syslog. So far so good. Did a wine install of the give
software and from the driver directory somewhere under
/home/user/.wine found the three driver files needed wg111v3.cat
WG111v3.inf  wg111v3.sys

sudo apt-get install ndisgtk

Earlier you had to do a lot of command line work to get this going but
now this instals the wrapper package and dependencies. Fired up from
SystemAdministrationNdisgtk menu and pointed to the file WG111v3.inf
and wireless was up and running. Only I have not been able to get the
WEP key connectivity but WAP works and of course open networks work.
