by Kartik Mistry 13 Nov '08

13 Nov '08

Try it out! Note that its RC1 so if you encounter any issue(s) during installation, Please file a bug (You can use `reportbug' tool, it is very easy to use). ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Otavio Salvador <otavio(a)debian.org> Date: Thu, Nov 13, 2008 at 5:35 AM Subject: Debian Installer lenny release candidate 1 To: debian-devel-announce(a)lists.debian.org Cc: debian-boot(a)lists.debian.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Debian Installer lenny release candidate 1 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Debian Installer team[1] is proud to announce the first release candidate of the installer for Debian GNU/Linux Lenny. Improvements in this release of the installer * Improved support for Live-CD installation media (much faster and more reliable than earlier releases); * Support for some NAS devices based on Marvell's ARM-compatible Orion chip: o QNAP TS-109/TS-209 and TS-409; o HP Media Vault mv2120; o Buffalo Kurobox Pro; * Installer images for Netwinder have been added again; * Installer images for i386 Xen guests[2] * Support for hardware speech synthesis (speakup) has been added; * Upgrade of packages early in pkgsel, for example to get available security updates for base system packages; * Support for loading firmware from (removable) media during the installation; * i386/amd64: support for installing to and loading firmware from MMC/SD cards; * New translations: Welsh, Irish, Northern Sami, Serbian (Amharic and Marathi were added in beta releases). Known issues in this release * i386: for this release, installation from floppy disk is not supported; * PowerPC: the graphical installer should work on almost all systems with ATI graphics cards, but probably not others; * touchpads should work with the graphical installer, but support may be suboptimal - if you experience problems, you should use an external mouse instead. See the errata[3] for details and a full list of known issues. We do need your help to find bugs and further improve the installer, so please try it. Installation CDs and DVDs, other media, errata, and everything else you'll need are available from the Debian Installer web site[4]. The Debian Installer team thanks everybody who has contributed to this release.

linux hardware shop in Mumbai, Pune
by Kussh Singh 11 Nov '08

11 Nov '08

Hi, I have been telling a lot of people about ubuntu/linux and its advantages over windows etc in most cases. But the stumbling block that I find is knowing or recommending a one stop shop for all sorts of hardware which is linux compatible. In particular small irritating stuff like memory card readers, all in one printers, webcams and similar stuff. Can anybody here tell whether such an intelligent hardware vendor been found yet in Mumbai or Pune? The advantages in the niche linux market to such a vendor are enormous and will help the linux movement too as technology adoption will be hassle free.

Yes, I came across that once when I was looking for some definite resource for linux compatible hardware. I would really like tuxcompatible.com (or any site with the same intention, really) to be the place one would go with the intention of *buying* the hardware/device/service ...etc, not only researching it's compatibility. To that end, i can imagine a possibility working with various web sites dedicated to listing or discussing compatibility and performance of hardware (for example, pciids.sourceforge.net, linux-printing.org, phoronix.com, linux-wireless.org, thinkwiki.org ...etc) and somehow integrate references to these in the the listings on tuxcompatible.com. Unfortunately, I know jack about the technologies involved to make this happen. So, yeah, I could use some help :-). Thanks for the comment, it make me feel less stupid for having done this :-). Btw, I could always use more help in letting people know about this site, since it'll work only if it has enough people using it. So, please spread the word around. Thanks and regards, - steve

The coordinator and team members will then run two pilot workshops to test the materials with a target audience. The feedback from these sessions will be used to refine the content and methodology as required. In parallel, all activities will be documented and converted into a final report by the end of January, 2009. We are looking for a young person with at least one year of social research experience with a fair understanding of ICTs (Information & Communication Technologies) and fluency in Marathi, English and Hindi who can function independently in the field against tight deadlines and resource constraints.
