hello everyone me and my friends are doing an Video and Image processing experiment for which unfortunately we'r having to use MATLAB for WINDOWS..We'd love to do the work on the LINUX platform but unfortunately we are not aware of softwares wich would give us the same degree of control and freedom on the Linux platform..we're aware of Matlab for Linux...considering cost issues we'd like to learn about a more viable option. Any suggestion and guidance will be of great help!!! Thank you

Re: Suggest a motherboard
by Roshan 27 Jan '06

27 Jan '06

I dont know the complete name of the motherboard but most ASUS based motherboards would be better. But before buying, just find out the chipset and the distros supported from here http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/showcat.php/cat/37 There have been some issues with the drivers for NVidia according to the above mentioned website, but most have been solved. _____________________________ www.geocities.com/d_rosh2001 If there's anything that you want to ask about related to computers and information technology email me at any of the following addresses 1) d_rosh2001(a)yahoo.co.in I think I should be able to help you If you don't know something, its always better to learn it and then experiment with components!

[COMMERCIAL] 6/12 mths exp Java Swinger. Eclipse/SWT preferred. JSP+linux a plus.
by Abhishek Daga 26 Jan '06

26 Jan '06

Hi, I am looking for a Java developer having 6 months to 1 year of experience. Having experience in Swing/SWT/Eclipse will be highly preferred. The work will mostly (3/4ths) be Java application programming and rest will be JSP. So you dont really have to know JSP as it can be picked up easily along the way. (atleast we hope so). Being a free country, salary will definitely be something that is mutually acceptable to both sides. It wouldnt work any other way would it? If you are interested or know anyone interested please ask them to email me their resumes in ASCII format as soon as possible. Thank you, Abhishek Daga *********************************************************************** Faith, by definition, defies evidence: it is untested and unshakeable, and is therefore in direct contradiction with science. *********************************************************************** __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I managed to get a SanDisk cf wi-fi card. I finally got the wi-fi card working with a little help from google. The light in the card goes blink-blink so I know its working. Now I want to connect my zaurus to my linux box over wi-fi. On the zaurus the wi-fi card has a ip of 192.168.129.203. I have tried to ping 192.168.129.202 (ip of eth1) fromthe zaurus but am unable to do so. Trying to ping the ip of the zaurus from the linux box gives an error saying detination host unreachable. The lights on the wi-fi card ligt up when I try to ping the zaurus. What do I need to do ? some pointers please. I can of course provide any more info required. regards, Sharukh. -- Dr. Sharukh K. R.

bug in nautilius ?
by Mohan Nayaka 24 Jan '06

24 Jan '06

I thought I'd confirm with seniors here before filing a new bug in Nautilius. I took a 8-sec avi format video in today's session by Mark S at IIT. I tried to check its size via right-click->Properties in File Browser. Result: The window closed & opened my home folder again. Notes: The file was in my home folder. I moved it to a subdir & tried same action. The result was the same i.e. a new file browser opened again with my home folder. I have opened the file under the other evil OS & hence it is not corrupted. The file is attached. Regards, Mohan S N

[OT] PPPoE login failure - DLink 502t TriBand modem
by Arun K. Khan 22 Jan '06

22 Jan '06

I have a small "expect" script to login in to the modem and reboot the unit @ 08:00 and 00:00 hours. This was working fine up until a few weeks ago. Now, after a reboot (thru the expect script) the unit is unable to login to the MTNL network. The following log shows PPPoE login failure: <log-failure> Jan 1 12:00:25> Connecting PPPoE socket: 00:90:1a:41:78:b6 6b0b nas0 0x1000d378 Jan 1 12:00:25> Connect: ppp0 {--} nas0 Jan 1 12:00:25> PAP authentication failed Jan 1 12:00:25> Connection terminated.

I keep getting PPPoE login failure. In such case, I have had to open a trouble ticket and typically within 12-18 hours the unit is able to login successfully. Not sure if MTNL really did something or the problem auto corrected itself :( In both scenarios, the web interface "Status>ADSL" does display the "Line State" as connected. I first reset the unit to factory settings and reprogrammed my custom settings. That did not help. Then I reflashed the firmware on the unit and reprogrammed my custom settings - no help. I am wondering if I have a flaky modem and how to prove it. Talking to MTNL is of no help. According to them, if all the LEDs are on then my modem is good. Any pointers as to what could be wrong would be highly appreciated. TIA, -- Arun Khan Linux is like a wigwam - no gates, no windows, apache inside

Which Driver for SMC2635W??
by Linux Rocks 21 Jan '06

21 Jan '06

Hello all: I am having difficulties trying to get the right driver for the SMC2635W wireless card. I've done some searches in google but can't get to the right driver for this card. Some results say the card has a ADMtek chipset which uses the ADM8211 driver; others say is another (can't remember). Can someone please guide me to where I can get the correct driver. I tried downloading the ADM driver but it sends me a website where I cannot download it. I'm running Debian sarge and 2.6.15 kernel. Thanks in advance for your help. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
