Gnu-Linux @ Shivaji University.......thank you all
by Trevor Warren 11 Feb '03

11 Feb '03

Hello Luggers, good-morning. Lemme take this oppurtunity to thank all of you'll for your sustained support which has helped us all through our travels across the length and breadth of this state. I would like to take this oppurtunity to personally thank all of you all who donated CD's which we sold at the the event. Believe me...after the knoppix demo and post the talk Students MOBBED Gurpreet who was selling the cd's. Our 20 Copies(Consisting of GnuwinII+Knopix+IndLinux = 2cds) were sold out in 10 minutes.....and students were clammering for more. We were amazed to see 2nd year Engineering students from Walchand Sangli....develop some real fundu 8085-8086 Simulators with an amazing GUI in Java and have been talking to them on Putting the same into the GPL domain..(Dinesh...pls push them and email calling them to discuss the same with the LUG). Learning our lessons we are looking at offering the same at Gnunify as a 2 cd kit and only charging for the cost of the 2 cd's which we will plough into the event again. On the whole many other Engineering/MCA colleges in the interriors of Maharashtra are opening up to FSF and OS and want such events organised at their campus too. We are looking to build this sustained movement all around Maharashta with the help of these charged Warriors at the local institutes. Looking forward to your unhindered support in the future too.

Free Software class for EOTO students
by dileep.kumar＠seepz.tcs.co.in 10 Feb '03

10 Feb '03

Hi, Each one Teach One -EOTO (www.eachoneteachone.org) an NGO giving free education for BMC school students requested the help of ILUG to introduce the children to the world of GNU/Linux . EOTO have computer centers at Sion Koliwada, Vile Parle(W) and Andheri (W) . Is there luggers staying near to these places and willing to teach the students .. Thanks Dileep TCS Borivali ph 56986980 x1326 Trevor Warren <trevor.w@medi To: sanjay.mitra(a)tatainfotech.com a.mit.edu> cc: dileep.kumar(a)seepz.tcs.co.in, "Dr. Nagarjuna" <nagarjun(a)hbcse.tifr.res.in>, anthonyl(a)mumbai.tcs.co.in, 01/08/03 01:08 kikitanna(a)yahoo.com PM Subject: RE: Free Software class for EOTO students Hello sanjay, good-day. Before going ahead and planning out between ourselves on any fronts i think its prudent for me to casually ask what does Dr. Nagarjuna have in mind on the same. Also, what level of education are we looking to cater towards, and what is the intended syllabi consist of. If Dr. Nagarjuna has already outlined some plans for the same pls brief me on them and i would like to take off from there. Lemme assure you there is a lot the Gnu-Linux users can do for your Non-Profit and For Profit Teaching initiatives all around the country. Lets work together on the same. I work at MediaLab Asia located at MIDC. If you are anywhere near pls lets meet. Bye for now and have a great day all. Trevor

this is in reply to the g++ compiler problem stated by sanka ..... the problem in the code is that the gcc 3.2 follows the ANSI/ISO C++ standards ..... the new set of standard header files r more object oriented ..... all those headers also now include namespaces ... so ur code should be #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { cout << "blah"; return 0; } Dinesh. - Morality ends where the barrel of a gun begins. >Message: 2 >Date: Sun, 9 Feb 2003 19:46:54 +0530 (IST) > From: harsh <z2005008(a)reg.iitb.ac.in> >To: linuxers(a)mm.ilug-bom.org.in >Subject: Re: [ILUG-BOM] Problem with g++ >Reply-To: linuxers(a)mm.ilug-bom.org.in > >On Sun, 9 Feb 2003, Sankha Subhra Som wrote: > >I think this is a particular problem with >iit kgp compiler...:) > > > > I have this peculiar problem with g++ under linux. > > This is a small piece of code that i wrote > > #include<iostream.h> > > main() > > { > > cout << "blahblah"; > > } > > > > When i try to compile it, i get the following warning > > > > In file included from >/usr/include/c++/3.2/backward/iostream.h:31, > > from first.cpp:1: > > /usr/include/c++/3.2/backward/backward_warning.h:32:2: >warning: #warning > > This file includes at least one deprecated or antiquated >header.

Confusion in clustering
by Srinivas 10 Feb '03

Hi all I am not getting the exact difference between Fail-over clustering and Load-balancing clustering. Some web sites they are giving both are same. I want to know the exact difference between the load balancing,failover & high performance clustering with supported softwares.

RE: [TwinCLinG] Confusion in clustering

Hi, > I am not getting the exact difference between Fail-over > clustering and Load-balancing clustering. Some web sites they are Fail-over: When one node in your cluster fails, the other takes over. Usually there is a heartbeat program which monitors the other node periodically and the failover happens when something abnormal happens (like say, the node not responding). Load balancing: You have too much computing to do and would like to share it between the nodes on your cluster. Example: A round-robin DNS server. Each times it receives a request, it gives the next IP in the machine pool so that the other machine handles the request. Though this is not of much use in case of a caching DNS setup, hope you get the idea of load balancing. > giving both are same. I want to know the exact difference between the > load balancing,failover & high performance clustering with supported High performance: Just what it says. Lot of computing power by mixing many machines and using it for computing. Usually for resource intensive operations like those of computational fluid dyanmics, simulations etc. where you havin many parallel operations would benifit. PVM libraries etc. etc. are made use. One or more of these could be combined together in a cluster. It would've been good if you searched over the net for these defintions. They don't have much to do with Linux per-se, so technically speaking, these are way too OT here. A question on Beuwolf ... yes! a right topic for discussion on these lists. > softwares. Search over the net please. Giridhar -- Y Giridhar Appaji Nag Giridhar.Nag[(a)t]ubinetics(.)co.in Software evolves. It isn't designed. The only question is how strictly you _control_ the evolution, and how open you are to external sources of mutations. And too much control of the evolution will kill you. Inevitably, and without fail. Always. In biology, and in software. - Linus an individual are not necessarily those of UbiNetics
