I write programs. Or atleast try to. I would rather make something better (eg., Octave) than waste my time arguing with you. Happy hacking, Debarshi -- GPG key ID: 63D4A5A7 Key server: pgp.mit.edu

Problem checking /home with fsck
by Vivek Shah 17 Feb '07

17 Feb '07

hi, A few days ago I faced a strange problem when I booted my laptop which runs Dapper on an i-386 and it went for a file system scan after 30 mounts it detected file system errors in root partition which got solved when I ran fsck from the recovery shell but the problem in my /home partition persisted Everytime I restarted the laptop it gave the following lines: buffer i/o error on sectors contiguously from 2661645 (i hope i m not missing any digit) This took 20 minutes because it was going line by line for each location Then I tried to fix the prolem in recovery mode to see what was happening WHAT I FOUND OUT WAS There was a problem for which "ide: error not recognised" was returned,and then SeekDriveReady returned error in the LBA sector...What else could go wrong was the question? Then it logged me in and strangely I found everything was working fine even configurations in my home directory.... So the first thing I did was in fstab i removed check of /home so tht it doesnt exasperate me for 20 mins filling my screen with buffer i/o error n then location counting....................... I will probably check it again with parted because fsck failed again for those sectors Now can anyone has any idea about an idea tht what might be wrong n everything is fine so it is worth bothering or should I go n sue Acer for a new hard disk cos my warranty covers me till mid JUNE.... Is it a hard disk problem?? Do give me your views Regards, Vivek

If so, it should have a 3 year warranty. As per your dates, your warranty is still valid upto Sept 2007. Regards, Rony. ___________________________________________________________ New Yahoo!

how to share printer attached to a fedora machine?
by krishnakant Mane 16 Feb '07

16 Feb '07

hello, I am going to try an experiment with printer sharing. I will like to know how to share a printer installed on a fedora machine? by the way aside from printer I had one more doubt. if I share a folder of a fedora machine via samba, is there any thing additional I need to do for accessing it from another fedora machine? I know how to access a linux based system from the windows machine but I don't know about sharing computers and accessing folders on a linux to linux machine. may be I am missing some thing stupid. so kindly guide me. Krishnakant.
