Thanks for the link Nick.
But unfortunately after down loading 500mb, it is not responding.
I experienced this 3 times.
Of course mine is a dialup conn, might be the reason.
That's why I need a disk.
I ordered for a free disk which will take 4-6 weeks.
If availability is there, I can come and burn on my disk pl.

 Are you using wget with the continue option enabled.

From the man page;

--continue
 Continue getting a partially-downloaded file. This is useful when you want to 
finish up a download started by a previous instance of Wget, or by another 
program.

Wget is command line utility that acts as a network downloader using the FTP

I find it an extremely useful piece of software. I recommend that you take the 
time and effort to become familiar with it. Read the man page for all the

As another migrant a few points, Christchurch is a nice city to live in

Hi guys, just thought I would introduce myself and say hello so long.  I

find work in Christchurch, but from what I have seen so far it looks
like I might have a better chance in Wellington.  I really do not see
myself settling in Auckland.

It is quite funny to watch your discussions over the last couple of days
- especially the ones over the February meeting and all the suggestions.
It seems like user groups all over the world have the same things in
common.  I can show you the exact same discussions going around in South
Africa.

I will be monitoring this group and contribute where I can and hope it
goes from strength to strength so by the time I land there you guys have
a well established bi-monthly meeting in place where I can meet all of
you.

Schalk, you will love Chch. There will be plenty of fellow immigrants and a
very friendly 'native' population. You need to know the Chch is the centre
of Cricket in NZ. Even our current provincial Captain is South African. As a
representative of the new world power in Cricket (and about time too we all

But you will have to convert to Crusader colours quickly - we dont stand for

Good luck on the job hunt.

Cricket - no problem!  Love it!  And as for supporting the Crusaders, I
have supported them ever since super 14 started (except when they play
against the sharks!) - why do you think I want to move to Chch...

I am also well accustomed to wind (note wind and not gas) as I grew up
in Port Elizabeth (SA's official windy city) and now stay in Cape Town
(My official windy city).

We'll see how it goes with the job hunting guys.  I am well aware of the
limitations in Chch and if things don't work out there, I will start
looking at Wellington.

Greetings to CLUGgers,

  The next meeting is at 7:30pm on 9th. October 2007 That's Tuesday 
next week at


The St. Albans Neighbourhood Resource Centre,
1047 Colombo Street
St. Albans.

  Here's a map so you won't get lost:  http://tinyurl.com/ytbmb4

  Caleb Sawtell is going to be showing off  the 3D modelling tool
called Blender3D.

  http://www.blender3d.org/


  The CLUG Linux and Unix Distribution Collection is now functioning.
http://clug.net.nz/index.php/Linux%20Distributions%20on%20CD

  Bring your laptop,  a USB storage device, a writable CD, or a  DVD
if you want to save download time or traffic volume on getting a Linux
Distribution. We now have of the order of 30 different relatively new
Unix and Linux  install disk sets.

  Fixing up Unix and Linux computers is always part of the evening's 
activities.


  As usual there will be a cup of tea or instant coffee and a biscuit
served during the evening.

  The Caly has closed so there is no pre-meeting tuck-in until we find
a new watering-hole.

  All list recipients and friends welcome.

-- Sincerely etc. Christopher Sawtell

You need to bring $2.

If you choose to bring 2 dozen free beer, that's ok, and we'll consider
that your joining fee ;p

Cheers Don

I think its a FANTASTIC idea for everyone to just do what they want on
CLUG.  Also let's all drive on the right hand side of the road etc.
lol Maybe we all need to be educated on netiquette!

Cheers.

Can you tell us how your drives are partitioned, according to the
operating system?

If you've not done this before, do:

parted /dev/hda
print
quit

for all the drives on your system and send us the bits that look like:

OK, this advice should work:

If it does not, we may have to change the location of the bootable flag.

How to install programs depends on what Linux distribution you are using. Most 
modern distros have good package installation methods but each of them are a 
little different.

Re: Hi There

2002-11-19 Thread Barry
Hello Kevin,

Following on from what Nick said

Digital camera makers seem to often use the same basic software for
several of their cameras. In gphoto a Chinon ES-1000 is listed, give it
a go as follows.

1 start linux as a normal user and load a gnome terminal.

2 in the terminal enter 'su' and your root used name. When the prompt
comes up you will see it now reads 'root@'

3 enter 'gphoto'

4 from the top menu select 'configure', then 'select port-camera model'

5 from the dropdown menu select the camera model and from the options on
the right the port to which you connect the camera (others will have to
help here if it is usb)

6 click 'ok'. The camera is now selected.

7 from the top menu select 'camera', then 'download index', then
'thumbnails'. 

8 when all thumbnails are showing click each one you want to download,
or click 'select' in the menu.

9 back to the menu, select 'file', 'save', 'selected images', then the
directory to which you wish to save them. Don't forget to enter a prefix
at the bottom of this panel, otherwise the filenames start with a '-'.

10 when finished close gphoto, then the terminal to exit the root login.
BTW with gphoto running, you may not be able to access your modem. For
me this problem is normal, others may comment.

Hope this helps with the camera.

Barry

 digital cameras appear to fall into two camps:
 
 1. those that require a special driver to download into linux, for those
 see gphoto.
 
 2. those that simply appear as a (usually scsi) drive in the system when
 plugged into the usb.
 
 search for the camera model and the word linux in google web and
 google groups. ditto for the printer.
 
 theres also a useful searchable database at
