Call for help from TLDP and a question.
by susmit shannigrahi 31 Oct '08

31 Oct '08

Hi list, This _may be_ slightly off topic here. But as it is very much related to Linux and many of us still consult LDP, I can not resist myself from forwarding this to you. Please see the mail below. Please help if you have time. The new URL is wiki.tldp.org. BTW according to jdd , LDP used to be included as RPM in RedHat. If yes, can we include them again if document licences permit? Thanks. Susmit ======================================================================= ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: jdd for http://tldp.org <jdd(a)dodin.org> Date: Fri, Oct 31, 2008 at 8:47 PM Subject: Re: [discuss] http://wiki.tldp.org/Page_Status To: Susmit <susmit.shannigrahi(a)gmail.com> Hello, I see that you work with Fedora. I have two things to do with Fedora :-) * do you know if the ldp HOWTOs are included in the fedora rpms? they used to be in red Hat, but the last time I checked was... extremely long time ago :-( * could you relay to the fedora user's mailing list the need of help for the LDP? thanks jdd -- jdd for the Linux Documentation Project http://wiki.tldp.org http://www.dodin.net

Announcing the Fedora Sugar Spin
by Rahul Sundaram 31 Oct '08

31 Oct '08

Hi, OLPC Project uses a derivative of Fedora as the operating system for it's XO laptops. One of the unique features of these laptops, is an environment called Sugar developed as a collaboration between Red Hat and other developers and now being maintained by Sugarlabs, an independent non-profit organization. The Fedora Project has released a new spin, a live CD with the Sugar environment by default and a number of additional activities including sugar-browse based on XULRunner and sugar-write based on Abiword. Furthermore, the Fedora liveusb-creator software has been updated to include support for this spin. For people developing the Sugar environment or those curious about it but don't have an OLPC system, this live cd can be a handy way to dive in. https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-announce-list/2008-October/msg00012.… Rahul

[1] Please use a Reply-All, that would get other list members (of the fedora-india list) to have a chance of providing inputs [2] Currently we are missing the following details: [i] location of the event [ii] URL of the event [iii] the agenda of the event [iv] 'Fedora' parts planned at the event (a) which parts you'd be comfortable handling (b) which bits you expect outside speakers for [v] your contact details [vi] expected audience for the event Item # [iv] in the list above is a bit important to discuss because it also allows us to check if other Ambassadors in Bangalore (I'm sure that you have contacted them already) are ready to chip in and help you out. Since this is a college fest, instead of handing out media-by-the-handful it would be an interesting (pre-FOSS.IN ?) exercise to check out how a LiveUSB station is managed. -- http://www.gutenberg.net - Fine literature digitally re-published http://www.plos.org - Public Library of Science http://www.creativecommons.org - Flexible copyright for creative work

Sub: Please Extend Helping Hand to New Bee - Unable to install MT882 Modem for Dataone (BSNL) Braodband Connection
by Kamalendu Chakrabarty 27 Oct '08

27 Oct '08

Dear Sir, I am a new bee. Recently I have default install from Fedora 9 CD. I have an ADSL Broad Band Modem HUAWEI MT882 Supplied by my ISP BSNL (Dataone) along with Broad Band Connection. The Modem is working well with WindowsXP (USB). But the CD that came with the Modem, contains Driver Package meant for Linux-RHL8. As a result I could not Install the Modem. Then I made changes in the "makefile" for linux-2.6.25-14 and again tried to install. But it ended as "gcc: command not found" As a new bee I got confused but in the Fedora CD I found rpm for gcc and I installed it. Still that I installation fails with a lot of error messages. If any of fedora-india list member had installed MT882 and configured for Dataone Broadband may please guide me in detail since I may not be able to understand Technica Terms. Helping Member may help me if you Would you please send me Driver Package (MT882) for Fedora 9 along with Installation Guide in a ZIP File. I am a new bee. Please extend your helping hand. (In absence of Internet Connection I am unable to update as well as download drivers/packages.) Thanking you, Sincerely yours, Kamalendu Chakrabarty.
