Fedora Core 4 CD required
by Amish Mehta 13 Dec '05

13 Dec '05

Hello All, I need Fedora Core 4 CDs urgently. Can not download as download speeds are too low. I found Mr. Sanket's contact from list archives but unfortunately he has DVD and not CD. Other sources are not in Mumbai. If anyone has CD set and can either lend me for 2-3days or give a copy to me for nominal charge or in return of blank CDs then I would be grateful. Please let me know where can I collect the CDs from. Also if any store in Mumbai offers FC4 CD set. Thank you. Amish.

Terminal and Sudo
by Rony Bill 13 Dec '05

13 Dec '05

Hello All, There are two problems for which I need some help. 1. Right from the start, FC4 is not able to open terminal windows from Ctrl+Alt F1 to F6. They would just be a blank screen. F7 would be back to GUI though. I checked up on the net and it was related to some bug in the gcc https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=161242 Since no such file was available for yum update, I put on the Yumx and checked all updates that had the name Xorg. Now F1 to F6 open but on going back to F7, the display goes bonkers. It only shows blinking cursors and hourglasses. It cannot go back to F1 to F6 either. Only a forced reboot works. Any tips? 2. I installed sudo but configuring the sudoers file is a little complex. The sudoers example site http://www.courtesan.com/sudo/sample.sudoers has detailed explanation but how would I add a line to allow, say user1 to give sudo commands without a password? Do I need to reboot or login again? Any help, tips and tricks would be highly appreciated. :) Regards, Rony. ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

Sharing an Internet Connection
by Puneet Lakhina 13 Dec '05

13 Dec '05

hi, i have a reliance fwp phone which i use to connect to the internet. I want to share this connection with two of my friends so that all of us get equal bandwidth if accessing at the same time. We have thought of two possible alternatives 1. the computer to which the phone is connected to have two Ethernet card with a p2p connection to the other two. -are there any issues regarding equal bandwidth division with this approach and secondly will a simple proxy software do or do we need some additional software to make this approach work. I am currently using Fedora core 2 but if there is any other distribution more suited to this then switching over to that is not a problem. 2. have a switch or hub and use that to share the connection. The only problem with this is the additional cost as where i live(vellore, tn) 4 port switches are difficult to get and an 8 port one cost around 800-900 i guess so that means an additional 300 bucks per person. I would really appreciate any feed backs on this or suggestions on any other alternatives, thank you, puneet
