Re: OT: Cabling to a shed

Kerry Mayes scribbled:
 I'm wanting to connect up my shed for power (3 phase), water and data
 (phone  network).  I have (with significant help) dug the trench to
 the shed and will be organising the connections in the next few weeks.

 However, if I run the network cables next to the power cables I'll
 have issues, yes?  Is there any way around that? Can I get shielded
 ducting for underground use (at reasonable cost)?  (I was initially
 just intending to run the cat5e cable through irrigation hose until I
 remembered the potential interference issues.)

Also get a quote for fibre and media converters.

 There are USB to VGA adapters, but I'm having a bit of trouble finding one
 that works with Linux (EdUbuntu  8.04).
 
 Any thoughts or suggestions?

You need a ballsy CPU to run them thought.

There's an in-kernel module called sisusb, which supports Net2280-based 
USB dongles. 
http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/hci/x.org/X11R7.0/doc/html/sisusb.4.html or
man sisusb
for more info.

 You could leave a draw wire in your conduit (use big radius curves in
 the conduit) to replace the the cat 5 etc. with fibre at a later date.

You can yank hard on some copper, but if you snap the fibre, you'll have
dead signal...

If you get confused with the documentation.. the words client and server mean 
exactly the opposite to what you may expect: as in the machine displaying the

One of the easiest ways to get X going remotely, if you only want to
run one or two apps is to run (from the displaying machine or server)

ssh -Y clientmachine
[log in or authenticate in whatever way you have setup]
xclock
[or whatever X app you want to run, the display will appear on the
machine you are looking at, but the app is actually running on
clientmachine]

Yes I do. That's how I managed to copy and paste info from a working
IpCop Server as explanation of the steps you need to go through to get a
firewall up and running with DMZ enabled in your previous thread.

Once again...

1. run setup and properly configure your hardware.
2. Ensure connectivity from the green network - this will be automatic
if set up properly: you should be able to ssh to your web server from
any ( ssh enabled ) machine.

will prove your firewall / hardware configuration.

  Is this still not working for you? You're thread-jumping, too.
  
  Please read http://catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html and possibly
  http://www.wikihow.com/Ask-a-Question-Intelligently
  
  Then start a new message to the list (not a reply to a previous one)
  and tell us what equipment you have, what the configuration is, and
  what new thing you want it to do.
  
  It's quite possible that a DMZ is not what you need, but we won't know
  until you explain what you're trying to do.

Please read your email yourself before posting it, and make sure it is
clear.  Everyone here is keen to help, but it's a little difficult to
parse your meaning.

Let me reiterate Jim's excellent suggestion.  I, too, recommend that you
read the following article:

It will help you ask better questions, and more importantly will get you
better answers more quickly.

Re: USB to VGA

2009-05-18 Thread Leif Keane
What model of laptop is it?
Does it have *any* additional output?  (s-video, HDMI, etc.)


It's Cyclone Classmate. Nothing going for it re video out. Not a bad
machine though: 30 odd gig of storage, DualCore Atom possessor - 1.6GHz.
Built like the proverbial brick out-house. and all for around $550. We're
looking at buying a shed load to put in classrooms. What I'm doing now is
looking at how feasible it is to use the small laptops in a classroom as
well as using EdUbuntu rather than windows.

You need a ballsy CPU to run them thought.

Looking into it now... thanks.


Use another computer for the display and connect to the laptop using 
VNC?

Shoot! I DID think of this a month or so ago!! Honest Gov. but then went
and forgot! Yes. needs looking into as an option, especially if the Dongle
idea sucks the life out of the CPU.
Thanks everyone.

 Hi.
 I have a small scale laptop with a 23cm (just about) screen.
 It is capable of resolutions up to 1024 X 600.
 The devise, however doesn't have a VGA out and I want to plug the thing
 into a data projector.

 There are USB to VGA adapters, but I'm having a bit of trouble finding one
 that works with Linux (EdUbuntu  8.04).

 Any thoughts or suggestions?


Now that we have a bit more of the background story.

Forget the data projector altogether.

How about testing this: Set up VNC in it's shared, or broadcast, mode and
network every student's laptop to the teacher's laptop, which might have to
have a bit of grunt to serve a classroom full of student laptops.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RealVNC

In my exp. students get on better if they are looking at their own  computer
screen instead of at a data-projector.

Please keep us informed.

yeah cos they're probably on bebo or playing games. At least when they
are supposed to be looking at the data screen, you can vaguely tell
which ones are looking at the presentation.

Also your suggestion presupposes all the kids have laptops and that
there is enough bandwidth in the network (which is probably wireless
if they're all laptops) to do VNC to all of them. I tell you there
probably not enough bandwidth, vnc is slow enough for one client in my
wireless G network.

multicast VNC? I wonder?

On another tangent..

Do they have to be laptops?
Can they be connected to wired network?

For far less outlay you could have a grunty LTSP server and a suite of good 
second hand desktops.
