No please! Yahoo messenger is evil! IRC would be the best methinks.

Wiki Contrib: Installing Redhat Linux 9.0
by Roshan 24 Sep '06

24 Sep '06

Hello All, I plan to write a HOW-to (indeed, HOW I Installed RH9) and contribute to the wiki. For many(Windows -> GNU/Linux migrated), Installing RH9 would be similar installing Windows 98SE on a newly purchased machine with Intel 915/925/945 motherboard, a SATA HDD, PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse, DVD Combo drive! I plan to write this HOW-to because, it has worked for me and for many of my friends (1 year ago) If you ask why not Ubuntu 6.06 or Debian or Fedora Core x, that's because, I haven't done it yet, myself. However, I think, the installation procedure would be similar if not same. So, list members, let me know if I should go ahead with this HOW-to or FORGET about it! __________________________________________________________ Yahoo! India Answers: Share what you know.

Re: Pitching Linux to corporates?
by BombayNews 23 Sep '06

23 Sep '06

Chanced upon a rundown cybercafe at Aurangabad where some of the computers ran on linux. can't remember the flavor right now. But the chap who ran the establishment usually left the machines on. He only 'ported' the logos of Internet Explorer and MS Office onto the desktop so an unsuspecting client clicking these had Firefox or Open Office opening up! The guy told me most of the people didn't even know the difference! Those who asked were simply told that Firefox was the latest version of Internet Explorer!!! I think a similar effort would have all the banias and small businessmen queuing up to install linux. Just install linux onto a laptop with whatever additional software required and ask the blokes to find the difference...... Shiv Kumar

IRC Channel GNU-India
by Roshan 23 Sep '06

23 Sep '06

Hello List Members, I don't know how many of you have used an IRC client software in your GNU/Linux distro or Microsoft Windows, but a few days back I was trying out KSirc (a IRC client available in RH9), and found out that GNU/INDIA is a channel on irc.freenode.net But it has its glory in its silence! No one talks publicly, there's possibly only one to one communication. PM's to one another. Anyone been on the Channel before or currently logs on? __________________________________________________________ Yahoo! India Answers: Share what you know.

Mehul, as far as the mails to the list, you have to burn 3 copies (2 -> Mr. Krishnakant and Mr. Rony, 1-> Roshan(me)) and I suppose a Moser baer CD for the three of us should work out. Let us know the exact location in Matunga, preferably as PM to us. Near the Railway Station? East or West? and a notable LANDMARK. As long as there are transport systems in Mumbai, The Suburban trains and BEST buses, I think I'll reach places in Mumbai. __________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

hello, I am shradha, I am a new member on this list. Krishnakant Mane introduced me to this list as well as ubuntu linux. right now I am trying to setup yahoo messenger as Krishnakant may have already informed. by the way there is a strange thing I noticed while installing ubuntu 6.06. my net connection was on and the setup was checking the internet for packages. but with my 64 k cable connection on, and the setup completed, when I re booted my machine, I did not get x up and running with gnome. it came to the command line. next, I re installed the system and that time I on purpose switched off the modem. this time the setup was proper and I got gnome desktop up and running. what could be the problem? regards. shradha.

[OT] Triband Filter
by Roshan 21 Sep '06

21 Sep '06

Hello All, Had anyone in the past faced a similar problem described below. When I switch on the power for my computer from Spike Guard, the ADSL Link/Act light of the D-Link Router starts blinking and keeps on blinking. When I lift the phone receiver, I hear sounds similar to modem handshake, along with the dial tone. Now, the ADSL Link/Act light comes to a standstill and I can connect to the internet when I log in to my OS. I called up MTNL on 1504, and they said the problem is with the filter. I have been given a complaint number. What I am interested to know is whether anyone has faced a similar problem, and, if yes, was it with the filter? If yes, did guys from MTNL replace / repair the filter? Or did they ask to purchase a new one? Where in Mumbai would it be available? __________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

Installation voes.
by Rony Bill 21 Sep '06

21 Sep '06

Hello All, I wanted to introduce linux to an office so on a P4 machine with Gigabyte 915 mobo and 1 GB RAM, I tried to load Mandriva 2006 but during the first bootup process itself it threw a fatal error and aborted installation after getting up the first graphical screen successfully. Then I tried Kububtu 5.10 but it gave me a file reading error though my cd looks good and the drive is a DVD writer. Ultimately I sheepishly loaded Knoppix 4.0 in a live demo. While the CD reading can be due to media, the Mandriva should have loaded smoothly. After so many years of linux being around, this is not expected from it.

> can any one burn a knopix cd for me? I can. I have Knoppix 3.9. Please let me know where can I meet you to give the same, "OFFLIST". If someone has a higher version, it would be better to obtain knoppix from him / her, and I would like to have copy of the same too!
