Thanks for the feedback. We had tried a while ago getting developer access to galileo but with no success. but maybe things have changed since then. have already initiated the process of extracting technical support again. Galileo Mumbai is not very forthcoming, Linux seems to be the L word to them. And yes, Sabre and Amedeus have already moved to the Web platform. Wonder when Galileo would. -Abhishek __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Small Business - Try our new resources site! http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/resources/

Firefox users deprived of certain sites.
by Abhishek Daga 10 Apr '05

10 Apr '05

Happened to come across a couple of sites recently which would not be very friendly to Firefox. a)The sites being the Air Sahara/Indiatimes auctions site. b) www.visa-services.com c) Indiapost.org (The pincode locator feature dies on detecting non IE) Now, without taking the effort to get to a windows machine, are my chances of viewing those sites next to nil? Side Question: Has anyone run the Galileo software (travel bookings) on linux? Details about the sites not opened in Firefox. The Indiatimes auctions site gives this message at some point after going through 2 steps. "Error ! The current browser is either too old or too modern (usind DOM document structure)." The www.visa-services.com site gives the message "this site is best viewed with IE so n so and above and 800x600 res. And nothing can be done. cant click ahead. The Indiapost.org site (http://www.indiapost.org/Netscape/pinsearch1.asp) returns Page not found error message from IIS and the url in the address bar changes to "http://www.indiapost.org/Netscape/pinsearch2.asp" So looks like they have a specific error message for netscape based browsers. So if I were to succeed in making my office windows free eventually, how would I be able to access the sites above and many such? views comments feedback, appreciated as always.

U will also require to maintain the packages in the right order if you wanna use a cd install. So you will have to get the packages.gz file for each cd and copy only those packages from the dvd to a partition, then use dpkg - scan package to create the new packages.gz file, then burn the lot to cd. Quite a pain. I dont know of a simple method. Of course a perl or bash script could automate the whole process. But i find dvd to be better by far. rgds jtd

Query-Howto pass kernel module option for TV-tuner during boot
by Nilesh Raykar 09 Apr '05

09 Apr '05

Dear all, I am using Philips chip based PCITV-card(Mercury make) using "saa7134" module (which is compiled in kernel). By default the module loads with card=0(generic/unknown) option which doesn't work. When I reload the module manually using modprobe with option card=3, my card works fine using xawtv. My question is howto pass card=3 option to "saa7134" during start-up. I find no entries for "saa7134" in any of /etc/modules, /etc/modprobe.d/*,etc/rc*.d My system configuration is as follows- AMD Athlon XP 1800+/128MB/80GB Debian-Sarge KDE3.3 Can anyone help me?

Gragon BSD 1.2.0 Released
by Gaurav Mishra 09 Apr '05

09 Apr '05

1.2.0 is our second major DragonFly release and the first one which we have created a separate CVS branch for. DragonFly's policy is to only commit bug fixes to release branches. This release represents a significant milestone in our efforts to improve the kernel infrastructure. DragonFly is still running under the Big Giant Lock, but this will probably be the last release where that is the case. This will be last release that uses GCC 2.95.x as the default compiler. Both GCC 3.4.x and GCC 2.95.x are supported in this release through the use of the CCVER environment variable ('gcc2' or 'gcc34'). GCC 2.95.x is to be retired soon due to its lack of TLS support. The current development branch will soon start depending heavily on TLS support and __thread both within the kernel and in libc and other libraries. This release fully supports TLS segments for programs compiled with gcc-3.4.x. It goes without saying that this release is far more stable then our 1.0A release. A huge number of bug fixes, performance improvements, and design changes have been made since the 1.0A release. TCP SACK in, tested, and on by default. TCP Performance tuning (header prediction now works properly, ACK aggregation when operating at GiGE speeds, fewer pure window update packets). Major network protocol stack threading and other infrastructure work. ALTQ and PF (Packet Filter). TLS (Thread Local Storage) support. DCONS support (console over firewire). IPv6 improvements. Namecache infrastructure rewritten. Improved checkpointing support. NFSv3 greatly improved. Kernel callout_*() infrastructure revamped. A lot of USB fixes. VESA console and X support. A large number of general maintainance items, such as driver updates, bug fixes, and so forth. Upgraded installer includes an option to turn it into a standalone netboot server for mass installs, bug fixes, and other new features. The RELEASE is now branched in the cvs repository.

No. But there is a window AC which works most of the time. In a nice cool dust free environment uptime is 3yrs and countinng. Debian woody. Infact none of the systems crash without a power failure. In the same environment "high end" boxes using windows 2000 server and NTxyz have an uptime of a week to 4 weeks. That too with umpteen sysadmins running helter skelter. While we have AMCs we hardly need to maintain anything at all. Disk life on linux is longer than on a windoze box. I ve observed that disks konk out on a windoze machine in about 3 yrs. But are still running on linux boxes (4.5 yrs +). Warning no hard data just my observation on 40 to 50 machines running in the same environment. No i did not supply the windoze box. Incase of home use desktops, the only time there is a problem is when the ISP "upgrades" his stuff. since the isp engineer knows no better than click this n that we have to go to the user's place to set things right. CAVEAT. No warranty or support if you install windoze. Ya i actually specify this clause in the contract. rgds jtd

Has anyone attempted connecting the reliance CDMA to a linux (or even windows) box with the aim of an application or script to read the messages OFF the reliance phone and depending on the content of the message, take whatever action? Basically am looking for a way to communicate programmatically with the reliance phones. I am sure someone out here must have tried it out? As a parallel to the Gnokii project?
