but a free distro by partecs www.partecs.com was troublesome. the live CD booted nicely, but there was no way i could connect to the net using the live cd. clicked on Internet>PPPsomething which detected the ethernet card but didn't connect to the net. i got the msg:pppdaemon died unexpectedly.
The Partecs Live Demo CD was a working one... It was actually Debian Morphix from the inside... and it could connect to the net easily from the CD itself... I myself was the volunteer incharge at the media centre at WSF... I dont remember you approached any volunteer for help. Our dhcp server was up and running... all u had to do is run "netcardconfig" and that's it... you could have insisted volunteers to make the CD work for you... plus mozilla firebird was bundled on the CD. So there should not have been any problem? Try it at ur home... I'm very much sure internet will work...
as for installing linux, the garden variety of engineers who maintain machines, install pirated sofware, etc in
Well, the buyers of new computers should be educated first... Most of the times it happens that the buyers say, "I WANT ALL THE SOFTWARES"... i've paid you 35000 Rs... and i want everything... what can the poor gardener engineers do?
Hey where is ur garden, maybe I can come there... what do you say?
