[OT] web hosting services in Mumbai?
by rohit bhute 30 Jul '05

30 Jul '05

Has anyone tried out web hosting services in Mumbai. I'm looking for the following configuration - Linux, PHP 4.3.x(preferably 4.3.8+) and Apache with FTP and .htaccess support. I mainly want to run DokuWiki on it. Google showed results but most of them were based outside Mumbai. I would like to hear some experiences. -- Rohit V. Bhute http://rvbhute.blogspot.com/

help Installing Ubuntu
by OVL Kiran Kumar 28 Jul '05

28 Jul '05

I recently bought a HCL branded PC with 2.93 GHz, 512 MB DDR, 80GB SATA, DVD combo drive, intex speakers... I tried running a live version of Ubuntu on it, but it is not able to identify the cdrom drive. So the live version fails to load and so does the installation. The DVD combo drive is a TSST corp CDW/DVD TS-H492A. If anyone has the drivers for this or can provide any help at all whatsoever, please do! Obliged, Kiran

problems with erasing CD-RW on samsung cd-writer
by chirag radhakrishnan 27 Jul '05

27 Jul '05

I have been trying to erase a CD-RW(moserbaer) using cdrecord utility (on kernel 2.6.11). Writing o CD-R is not an issue. To erase the disk I issued the command "cdrecord -v dev=/dev/hdd blank=all" After issuing this command it receive the following message <snip> Starting to write CD/DVD at speed 10 in real BLANK mode for single session. Last chance to quit, starting real write 0 seconds. Operation starts. Performing OPC... cdrecord: OPC failed. Blanking entire disk cdrecord: Success. blank unit: scsi sendcmd: no error CDB: A1 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 status: 0x2 (CHECK CONDITION) Sense Bytes: 70 00 03 00 00 00 00 0A 00 00 00 00 73 03 00 00 Sense Key: 0x3 Medium Error, Segment 0 Sense Code: 0x73 Qual 0x03 (power calibration area error) Fru 0x0 Sense flags: Blk 0 (not valid) cmd finished after 215.197s timeout 9600s cdrecord: Cannot blank disk, aborting. </snip> I searched on google there have been people who have faced similar problems albeit with different kernel and different cd writers. I also see an option '-force' but it comes with a warning about damaging CD-RW media. Has anyone tried this option? Has anyone come across a similar problem? Any workarounds or hints?

Any one laid hands on > it ? Wow! I have been contemplating buying one :) What make and model is it? What was the damage to your bank balance? Debian, Fedora, SuSE, Mandrake, CentOS (RHEL clone) are a few that have AMD64 editions. I would suggest that you try the AMD64 edition of whichever 32 bit distro you are using now. I have been using SuSE 9.2/AMD64 for the past year and I am quite happy with it. -- Arun Khan <knura(a)yahoo.com> Linux is a wigwam: No Windows, No Gates, Apache inside.
