[Ilugc] USB datacard issue
Hi, I am using Airtel datacard on my Ubuntu 8.04. I am able to connect and use the internet services. But when the connection fails, I am not able to connect back without rebooting the system. The modem does not seem to be identified. Not sure why. I dont have this issue when the wvdialler manually and restart the connection. Error I get - --> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60 --> Cannot get information for serial port. --> Initializing modem. --> Sending: ATZ --> Sending: ATQ0 --> Re-Sending: ATZ --> Modem not responding. Its a USB based modem. $lsusb Bus 005 Device 001: ID : Bus 004 Device 001: ID : *Bus 003 Device 003: ID 12d1:1001 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.

USB devices sometimes misbehave and I have found this to work. Reboot is always a drastic solution to be avoided!

There are RFCs that define the feature set of each protocol you have listed. From them you can extract the purpose of the protocol i.e. use case. Likewise, from the features of the protocol you can you can create the test case(s). -- Regards, Arun Khan ___ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with "unsubscribe " in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Yes i see they are using php in some way. I am a recent volunteer and not a committee member. I understand the resistance you are talking about. I have been an evangelist for quite some time now and have had my share of wins and losses. My strategy is to take it slow and steady - one step at a time. I have volunteered to build some apps and since the tech/license for these is my choice alone, all of them will be on FOSS technologies and will be under GPL. The reason I am GPLing them is so that everybody can use them. I hope LokSatta is as clean as it is projected. If not, these modules will be useful to any party. The web-site is hosted by an external agency based out of Bombay and I am not touching it right now. I would all readers to not be too cynical.

How do you expect to do that when your Voter ID is not ready , forget about it your name does not appear in electoral after having applied multiple times . may be you can help folks in this direction too. yes i have seen some private people coming forward in this direction with campaigns and website like jagore.com but those too have been just sort of sharing information and passing real onus on to the EC . yes all these changes are in process through refroms , if political party or people will bring in those reforms still its to be looked to be seen i think this is going way OT now ;-) again i have a different itch to scratch and only one life to live ... back to work. -Satya http://www.linkedin.com/in/satyaakam ___ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with "unsubscribe " in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Do you mean that LAN should be able to access Internet via both these links? If so, where do printer, SVN, Samba figure?

[Ilugc] wubi - ubundu installer 4 windowz users
I don't know this is info is already available to you. Still i am sharing it with you. I came across wubi, an offically supported ubundu installer for windowz. it works with very very simple steps. extremely useful for guys who doesn't want to lose their windowz OS in single step! http://wubi-installer.org/ http://wubi-installer.org/faq.php steps 1. download wubi.exe 2. if you have ubundu desktop 8.10 ISO image, keep it in same folder as wubi.exe is. If not available, wubi will download the image from internet. 3. start wubi.exe 4. Select username and password for ubundu administrator. 5. click install. If ISO is already available, wubi will finish its work within 5 minutes (You dont have time to have a coffee!). otherwise wait till ISO image is downloaded. After finishing its work it will ask for a reboot. On reboot, Boot menu will appear, select ubundu to boot. Your ubundu will get installed. After finishing its installation, you have Ubundu controlling your system! The great side of this software is, it does not require any new partitioning, one resistance I face from people when I say install Ubundu. For any typical windowz guys, this will look like installing another windowz software in his system!

Hi, MAILTO= guided me to find what was the problem with sendmail when cronned. The Problem was " sendmail: command not found ". So, sendmail when cronned requires its *complete path*. Eg. /usr/sbin/sendmail as in my case. Thankyou for your valuable suggestions.
