Problem checking /home with fsck
by Vivek Shah 17 Feb '07

17 Feb '07

hi, A few days ago I faced a strange problem when I booted my laptop which runs Dapper on an i-386 and it went for a file system scan after 30 mounts it detected file system errors in root partition which got solved when I ran fsck from the recovery shell but the problem in my /home partition persisted Everytime I restarted the laptop it gave the following lines: buffer i/o error on sectors contiguously from 2661645 (i hope i m not missing any digit) This took 20 minutes because it was going line by line for each location Then I tried to fix the prolem in recovery mode to see what was happening WHAT I FOUND OUT WAS There was a problem for which "ide: error not recognised" was returned,and then SeekDriveReady returned error in the LBA sector...What else could go wrong was the question? Then it logged me in and strangely I found everything was working fine even configurations in my home directory.... So the first thing I did was in fstab i removed check of /home so tht it doesnt exasperate me for 20 mins filling my screen with buffer i/o error n then location counting....................... I will probably check it again with parted because fsck failed again for those sectors Now can anyone has any idea about an idea tht what might be wrong n everything is fine so it is worth bothering or should I go n sue Acer for a new hard disk cos my warranty covers me till mid JUNE.... Is it a hard disk problem?? Do give me your views Regards, Vivek

If so, it should have a 3 year warranty. As per your dates, your warranty is still valid upto Sept 2007. Regards, Rony. ___________________________________________________________ New Yahoo!

by krishnakant Mane 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

hello, I am going to try an experiment with printer sharing. I will like to know how to share a printer installed on a fedora machine? by the way aside from printer I had one more doubt. if I share a folder of a fedora machine via samba, is there any thing additional I need to do for accessing it from another fedora machine? I know how to access a linux based system from the windows machine but I don't know about sharing computers and accessing folders on a linux to linux machine. may be I am missing some thing stupid. so kindly guide me.

Motherboard conked.Suggestions for a new mobo/processor
by िऩऩाद 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

Hi I have the following system Intel P4-2.4ghz processor on a D845gvsr mobo 256mb RAM Samsung combo drive(CD-R +DVD) 2 40gig HDD. The whole system was assembled in Oct 2004 Recently my pc stopped working and I was told that it is a motherboard problem and needs to be replaced. Now I am looking for a mobo+processor combo and many friends suggested AMD64 based processors. Points to be considered 1. My usage is limited to basic office applications, surfing, songs, videos, chat etc ie a desktop user. 2. I need to run some games on it for my kid and as such also need XP as my primary OS 3. Being a linux enthu most of my usage is on a Linux distro. 4. I also try out various new distros. Is it advisable to go for a AMD processor and motherboard combo. If yes---What are the suitable configs (AMD+mobo) If no----- What are the alternatives (Pentium etc) Thanks Ninad

PDF editors?
by Linux Lover 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

Hi, I wanted to know if there are any good tools available to edit a pdf file and export the modified document back to pdf. I see that kword allows you to read a pdf file, however it doesn't let you export it back to pdf. OO 2.0 on the other hand lets you export your document into pdf format, however doesn't let you import one for editing. TIA, Chiragz
