Modem

Hi, I have Intex-PcTel HSP56 modem with me. Its working perfectly on my Win XP. I recently working on shifting over to Linux. But cannot complete that as my Modem does not work with Fedora Core 2. Please let me know if there are any drivers for the same. If I have to replace my modem which is the best compatible (and cheap!!) modem if I need to work with fedora. regards Prabhakar

Re: [ILUG-BOM] Modem

H, I have tried different drivers with my current modem. My machine shows the details as ----:---- Class 0703: 134d:2189 Modem: PCTel Inc: Unknown device 2189 (rev 04) (prog-if 00 [Generic]) SubSystem 134d:1002 PCTel Inc: Unknown device 1002 Flags: bus master, stepping, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 9 Memory at ff8fe000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) I/O ports at d800 [size=256] So I am not sure if the modem chipset is recognized or not. The above was obtained using "scanModem" utility from linux compatible. one of the threads which closely relate to the problem I am facing is http://www.linuxcompatible.org/thread1001-1.html but even that is inconclusive. Is it advisible to try an older kernel instead of 2.6.x or try different modem? regards Prabhakar

killing a known process
by abhilash kumar 21 Nov '04

Helllo: I am trying to write a shell script to get the process id of a particular process (slapd) and then kill that using 'kill -9 $pid'. I can get the pid by using prid= pidof slapd An echo of this for testing gives me the pid number followed by a blank line and then the prompt. Now the problem is when I am trying to use this variable in various forms in the shell script and get errors. option 1: kill -9 $prid Output: 20685 kill: usage: kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] [pid | job]... or kill -l [sigspec] ========================= Option 2: actual= "kill -9 $prid" echo $actual Output: 20685 ./testscript: line 4: kill -9 : command not found ========================== Option 3: actual="kill -9 $prid" echo $actual Output: 20685 kill -9 #The process is still running.

Help! Can't boot into linux after re-installing Win XP.
by Sarfaraz Kazi 20 Nov '04

20 Nov '04

Hi Linuxers, I'm having problem booting into my linux installation. I have Win XP on C: drive and root is on hda8. Recently, I had to re-install XP due to which, I guess, the MBR has got overwritten. Now, I don't get LILO on bootup. My distro is Mandrake 9.1 . Before re-installing XP, I had created a boot floppy from the Mandrake Control Centre module. I tried to boot using this floppy. It gives the boot prompt. I tried several commands at this prompt: /sbin/lilo linux linux image=/boot/vmlinuz linux root=/dev/hda8 Nothing works. Error message thrown up is "kernel image not found" or something like that. The floppy contains only one file by the name of "ldlinux" Next, I tried to use the rescue mode from the installation CD. The steps I followed are: 1. Boot into installation CD. 2. Press F1 for more options. 3. Type rescue at the boot prompt. 4. Screen shows - "Please wait - Loading program into memory" and shows these options at the bottom - "Alt-F1 for here, Alt-F3 to see the logs, Alt-F4 for kernel msgs". 5. On pressing Alt-F3, screen shows - *found a Mandrake Linux CDROM, good news! *trying to load /tmp/image/Mandrake/base/rescue_stage2.bz2 as a ramdisk 6. On pressing Alt-F4, screen shows- <4> hdc : ATAPI reset complete <6> end_request : I/O error, dev 16:00 (hdc), sector 1261592 <4> hdc : cd_rom_decode_status : status=0x51 {DriveReady SeekComplete Error} <4> hdc : cd_rom_decode_status : error=0x30 LastFailedSense 0x03 ...and on it goes. After some time, the main screen gives this message- "ERROR - Could not uncompress second stage ramdisk. This is probably an hardware error while reading the data. (this may be caused by a hardware failure or a linux kernel bug)" On pressing OK the screen goes blank and nothing happens. My installation CD is a little scratched but it used to work perfectly earlier. Could this be the problem? Is there any other way that I can remedy this situation? Please help.

Mega LUG meet / BoF session at LB/04
by Guntupalli Karunakar 20 Nov '04

20 Nov '04

Hi all, There is a plan to have a Mega LUG meet / BoF Session, where people coming from different LUGs / places across country for LB/04 , would meet and discuss on how to make FLOSS grow in India. Some aspects that could be discussed are - How to increase FLOSS usage in education/organizational/individual levels. - How to encourage students to participate in FLOSS development - Increasing LUGs scope and reach. - TODO: suggest more points of discussion. More suggestions/ideas on how this could go about are welcome (& needed) Here this idea is not just meet up and have a fruitful discussion, but also evolve some kind of charter or roadmap, which could also be translated into some action. Duration of meet could be 90-120 mins. A rough plan on how it could go about #1 First get some common agenda / points which would form basis of #discussion in the meet ( these could be chalk out on list discussions #) 2 Those who may not be able to make it to the meet, can post their #view on LIG/LB04 list or in their respective LUG list (& someone fwd #it directly to me or to LIG/LB04 list ). 3 Those who would be making #for LB04 , make sure you are there for the meet Once the points for discussion are fixed, it would be good to have some people who have experience on them speak for few minutes, to set the ball rolling on those issues. Also we would need some volunteers, who can take some notes on discussions , summarise it and prepare up a report and a charter/roadmap/action plan document. Please fwd this mail to LUG list ur on if its not already posted there. Regards, Karunakar

November GLUG meet
by Venkatesh Hariharan 19 Nov '04

19 Nov '04

Just a reminder to all about the next GLUG meet to be held this Sunday. Venky ===== The theme for the next GLUG meet is "Free/Open Source Community Software." There is a tremendous amount of innovation that is happening in the area of community software with sites like Ryze, Linked In, Orkut etc growing rapidly in popularity. Blogs are another form of community software that have become very popular in recent times. One of the speakers at the upcoming GLUG meet is Veer Bothra who manages Blogstreet.com. Amish, do you want to talk about Mono at this meeting? Also, many of us will be away from Mumbai on the second Sunday of November (myself included) because of the long weekend for Diwali. I therefore suggest that the next GLUG meet be held on 21st November 2004 between 3PM-5PM. The venue for the same will be Netcore's office [1] in Lower Parel. Feedback, suggestions, speakers welcome!

>>Problem with boot<<
by BIJU KRISHNAN 18 Nov '04

18 Nov '04

Dear Linuxers, Due to my constant fooling arnd with GRUB and LILO and the MBR, i now face a problem. I cannot boot into WINDOWS: When I booted my machine I got two options DOS and Linux, when i select Linux it boots fine, when i select DOS i get an error Disk write error Pls press any key to reboot These are the things that I tried : 1. I erased the MBR and then did a lilo -v in rescue mode. No luck although. 2. Tried installing grub instead of lilo grub-install /dev/hda No luck 3. I erased the MBR and then re-installed WINDOWS in the same folder C:\WINNT I'am using windows2k professional. Could somebody suggest a remedy.....! bye rgds PP BIJU KRISHAN --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Discover all that�s new in My Yahoo!

November GLUG meet
by Venkatesh Hariharan 18 Nov '04

18 Nov '04

The theme for the next GLUG meet is "Free/Open Source Community Software." There is a tremendous amount of innovation that is happening in the area of community software with sites like Ryze, Linked In, Orkut etc growing rapidly in popularity. Blogs are another form of community software that have become very popular in recent times. One of the speakers at the upcoming GLUG meet is Veer Bothra who manages Blogstreet.com. Amish, do you want to talk about Mono at this meeting? Also, many of us will be away from Mumbai on the second Sunday of November (myself included) because of the long weekend for Diwali. I therefore suggest that the next GLUG meet be held on 21st November 2004 between 3PM-5PM. The venue for the same will be Netcore's office [1] in Lower Parel. Feedback, suggestions, speakers welcome!
