RE: [ILUG-BOM] New discussion forum for ILUG-BOM !

Pune GNU/Linux Users Group - http://plug.org.in/ -----Original Message----- From: linuxers-bounces(a)mm.ilug-bom.org.in [mailto:linuxers-bounces@mm.ilug-bom.org.in] On Behalf Of Anil Gupte Sent: 06 December 2004 21:27 To: GNU/Linux Users Group, Mumbai, India Subject: Re: [ILUG-BOM] New discussion forum for ILUG-BOM ! Thank you all who responded to the Salary Survey question. I could not reply earlier because I stopped getting mail for some reason. However, I read the archives. Seems like there was quite a range - 7.5K to 20K pm! Anyway, if anyone has any more inputs I will welcome them. What is this about the new forum? Is this going to replace the list? I would suggest that if you have a proper web site for this group, it would be nice to allow job postings and partnership opportunities. As someone else on this list said, there has to be a commercial component to any group. If the "Homebrew Computer Club" had no commercial component we would not have had Apple. It happened because Jobs the marketer, met Wozniak the inventor. Also, is there a Linux group in Pune? Thanx, Anil Gupte

Copying DVD's with kb3 - IO errors
by Shahed 05 Dec '04

05 Dec '04

Hi all, I am trying to copy dvds with kb3, but I keep getting I/O errors. Even when I try to use a simple cp -R * /tmp on the dvd mount, it copies a few files and then I get a load of I/O errors. However, the dvd is fine, as I am able to view its contents. I am using Suse Linux 9.2, and I am not sure where to look for the problem. Could it be the dvd driver ? Or is it something kernel related ? Any ideas on what could be the problem would be appriciated. Thanks Shahed.
