Learning Linux

> Hello, > > I am new to this group. I am new in the city of Mumbai. So I would > like to know the details of good institutes for learning Linux in > Mumbai I think most of us would suggest learning it yourself compared to learning from an institute. People who say linux is tough probably didn't do it right. If you've _never_ used linux before, try using wubi ( http://wubi-installer.org/ ) to install Ubuntu on the computer. It will let you experience linux in a surface manner, and once you're comfortable, switch to another distro. > Surya Sharma > me(a)suryas.info > 9920482321 Just realised I spammed the list with a bad reply.

Scrolling tv announcements
by Surya Sharma 24 Mar '10

24 Mar '10

> > I will probably be asking them for advice on how to go about it Well, if you take the video out from Tatasky you can pretty much do whatever to that feed without the server knowing anything. Their T&C mentions that you shouldn't be recording the video, so have a look at the manual to clarify that. Here's a simple way to do what you want to do: All you need is a Graphics card with Video (or S-video) out, and an video + audio input card. Set your video out as a monitor, then on that monitor: Play the video on the system using any app that works. Create an app or use some that will act like a ticker. You could just make a gif or flash animation for that. Keep this application over the video. Use the video out from the PC as your final video. (or use a screen capture app) Surya Sharma me(a)suryas.info 9920482321 It's rare that you see an artist in his 30s or 40s able to really contribute something amazing - Steve Jobs (29) On Wed, Mar 24, 2010 at 12:00 PM, <linuxers-request(a)mm.ilug-bom.org.in>wrote: > Send Linuxers mailing list submissions to > linuxers(a)mm.ilug-bom.org.in > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > linuxers-request(a)mm.ilug-bom.org.in > > You can reach the person managing the list at > linuxers-owner(a)mm.ilug-bom.org.in > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Linuxers digest..." > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

tv scrolling announcements
by Kenneth Gonsalves 24 Mar '10

24 Mar '10

hi, this is a new field for me, I need to have scrolling and flash announcements displayed on a tv screen (digital tv) while users are watching normal programs on tatasky. How is this done? what equipment and software needed? And no, I have not googled for this as I have no idea what to search for. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Senior Associate NRC-FOSS http://certificate.nrcfoss.au-kbc.org.in

grub rescue: rescue me, scary ubuntu 9.10, beware!
by jitendra 24 Mar '10

24 Mar '10

Can any one help me : two of my PCs have gone into 'grub rescue'. I tried (now I think foolishly) to install ubuntu 9.10 (which has this new grub animal 'grub 2') . And that is buggy. I just dont know how to come out. Very strange and *S C A R Y * 1. One machine has existing windows. It had ubuntu 8.04 . I deleted the partition so I could install ubuntu 9.10 . Now the machine refuses to recognise usb stick, usb CDROM so I cannt even boot from them. 2. Other laptop : i thought I will not touch the system that is working fine( ubuntu 9.04) So I used USB CDROM and ubuntu 9.10 disc on it to create a usb stick for 9.10. I did boot from USB CD and chose the stick to install and chose not to install grub as I wanted only one OS on the stick and thought grub will be redundant. (While installing it had asked location of grub on HD(0) etc and that was not relevant . I thought). So I happily ended the process disconnected USB CD ROM drive and restarted the laptop and again I got the sacry 'grub rescue >' prompt I looked up help on the net but , like some previous sufferers , I got no good help. I am sure there is some good help I can use. -- jitendra

Booting from USB stick : is it ubuntu 9.10 problem
by jitendra 23 Mar '10

23 Mar '10

I had reported problem of grub rescue on two machines earlier. Gladly that has been solved completely in one of my two machines. However on the second one, somehow my USB CDROM is not recognised. So I tried to create a USB stick. I could do so very well. However when I use this on the PC, the cursor gets stuck on prompts as this _____________________________________________________________ SYSLINUX 3.63 Debian-2008-07-15 CBIOS Copyright (C) 1994-2008 H. Peter Anvin boot: ________________________________________________________ Nothing happens. The google showed a following comment which was discoraging __________________________________________________ Comment #9.1 by: *DaveP* on 09 Dec 2009, 20:05 GMT Apart from each time I tried to use USB disk creator in 9.10, it failed to create a disk. Did same on 9.04 and it worked fine, so must be something to do with the first cuts of Karmic, which I am sure will be ironed out after a few weeks. 8.10 and 9.04 created USB startup disks just fine. ___________________________________________- Any clue? -- jitendra

Please suggest USB NICs that are supported by Linux
by Arun Khan 23 Mar '10

23 Mar '10

I need to add an additional ethernet interface in a router box and I have run out of PCI slots (board does not have any PCI-express). However, there are a bunch of unused USB ports that I can use. Please suggest USB NICs that are supported by Linux *and* available @ Lam Road. Brand/Model and shop name would be highly appreciated. Speed is less important, as long as I can get about 10Mbps on the iface - it will be used to connect to the ISP link. TIA -- Arun Khan
