To start with i have a query about a bad HD (500 Gig) Its a USB connected (and powered ) transcend casing with it think a It has about 8 or 9 partitions - i had originally bought it as a replacement drive for my 80 gig HD so had prepared it with a windows section, two Linux OS sections, a large home, a large data back up etc. I never got around to using this as a replacment for various reasons. The transcend casing has a funny way of working - the usb cable has two inputs - one for power and one for data - and if ever the power section is not inserted (into the computer) then the externl HD tends to crash - and i think my not using this power usb cable resulted in the hd crashing and getting spoilt.

Also, there will be huge number of files, try to filter the recovery files by file type, which can save time digging into.

I started realizing that my laptop(HP dv5) audio is too low, some of the movies which works well with windows play with terrible audio(that is too low to hear), iam able to just listen to the audio only with my full volume UP. However in windows this was not the case, even when my volumn is 50% iam able to hear it loud and clear. Is there any setting that I need to alter to make my laptop audio work reallly good !!! Double click on volume icon on the panel, which open Alsa mixer and you can increase Front option to max. Hope this helps you.

He has an Airtel Broadband connection! 4. And I think he is trying to connect the wires to his internal 56K Conexant RD02 modem. Mallikarjun: First of all, I think you should take help from Airtel people. Secondly, you are using the wrong modem. They should have given you an external ADSL modem, which you should connect to your laptop using an ethernet cable (you can also use a USB cable, but it will be a little slower). Ethernet connection is simpler to configure (no drivers reqd) and it is faster than a USB connection. They have given modem and it works, but i got RD02 with laptop so wanted to give a try. also 2 systems cant be used at a time so anyways thanks to all. I hope this helps!

Once it sets up the modem, just do sudo wvdial everytime. Hope this helps. I will give a try, thanks a lot, can you explain what it does? if you dont mind.

If my understanding is right, wvdialconf searches for the modem in all possible ports, and detects maximum possible baud etc and saves the settings in /etc/wvdial.conf file. You have to edit that file and enter your dialup phone number (such as 172226 for bsnl or #777 for reliance cdma), username etc. wvdial ofcourse dials out (using settings from wvdial.conf), initiates a ppp session and establishes a default route in the routing table. there may be better ways to achieve this using the network manage applet, but this is the way I know that works for sure.

Here's what I suggest. You already have Ubuntu installed I believe. Backup your /home on an external drive (pen drive or external HDD). Make enough space on your internal HDD and then install Fedora, allowing it to format your /home if it wants to. At the end, boot Fedora once and then copy your backup of /home from the external drive back to your internal HDD. Perhaps that will delete some config files but this might work. On the contrary he should keep the existing data on /home partition and use it as it is. That way there is at least some chance that it will work.

Second phase i.e., installation cant be paused because it will lead to inconsistent state. So would it be an idea to incorporate a stop restart interrupted mode in Synaptic ??

By the way, in case you are getting it from US, you may also want to take a look at system76 [1]. They have been providing machines with Ubuntu preloaded for long, even before Dell started doing it.

But i want to know the review of there systems. They are cheaper and better hardware config but how do i trust them, I am an indian they have no plans of coming to india, atleast Dell might come in near future. This is my view i am open to all kinds of suggestions. -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

[ubuntu-in] Having linux stuff on syllabus
I recently read an article about china being too much concentrating on linux education one such is in http://www.linux.com/feature/144852;. At that time i thought why cant we approach universities (in karnataka like VTU, BU and i dont know in other states) to have courses on Open source, Linux, and many more, I am very sure most of us know what these universities teach. If it is already under progress please ignore this, I am unaware. mallikarjun -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

If it is already under progress please ignore this, I am unaware. Engineering courses in most of universities I am aware of don't even talk about any industry related tools. ex. build tools like make and ant, protocols like ssh and vnc etc. So open source and linux don't even exist for them. But this doesn't mean that we can't do it. Doing this on personal basis will be a good start. For example those of us who are working in industry already can design courses about various tools and conduct them in their colleges ans and when possible. Onkar What you said is correct but if we teach, i know how many ppl will attend bcoz i was one among them to miss lectures, so if it in the course there is no way to escape. they have to read most of them will be reached. mallikarjun -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

Sorry. Forcing doesn't work. It will be studied as any other subject and in most cases will end up being taught the wrong way, given the quality of majority teachers who teach at Universities nowadays. Ya i got the point. But i felt it would be good for there future. mallikarjun -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
