T is the point where the person is standing Force 1 is centrifugal what is keeping the guy's feet on the ground Force 2 is due to motion of the wheel (anti-clockwise)... so won't it act on the guy in that direction ?

Using USB devices on Linux
by kvelhal 01 Oct '04

01 Oct '04

Hi, Anybody aware of good tool (preferabaly GUI) for managing USB devices (Hot Plug/Unplug)? I am using PCQLinux 2004 which is based on Fedora 1. I am able to access my USB HDD and CD-ROM. But not sure how to gracefully unplug the device when un-mounting. It will be better if some kind of tool is available to do this and monitor the devices. I have gone through linux-usb guide but its geeky way. Any easy way for doing this? I think the existing drivers for USB controllers are doing well on my box. Only a front end is required. I thought of building some UI but am not familiar with Linux GUI programming and interfacing with hardware. -Kshitij Get Your Private, Free E-mail from Indiatimes at http://email.indiatimes.com Buy The Best In BOOKS at http://www.bestsellers.indiatimes.com Bid for for Air Tickets @ Re.1 on Air Sahara Flights.
