Hi,
I recently(yesterday) installed Gentoo 2007 from a CD I obtained from Mehul
Ved.
Problems that dogged me:
1]The Live CD could not boot the ATi Radeon XPress 200(RC410) integrated
card on my Intel D101GGC motherboard.
2]I ran the text mode(pseudo-GUI?) installer and refused to install the
Gentoo Grub opting instead to add the relevant entries to my Ubuntu
7.04/boot/grub/menu.lst.So,I added the following for Gentoo:
title Gentoo 2007
root (hd0,8)
kernel /boot/kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.19-gentoo-r5 root=/dev/hda9
initrd /boot/initramfs-genkernel-x86-2.6.19-gentoo-r5
wherein my Gentoo / is partition number 9(hda9)So everything went fine till
I tried to boot my Gentoo install.Kernel was recognized and starts
booting,but during booting an error message pops up saying
>>Booting (initramfs)..switch_root: "Bad init('/sbin/init)
Kernel panic-not syncing-attempted to kill init!
and the machine hangs there with the Caps Lock and Scroll Lock LEDs blinking
furiously.I have to press the Reset button to regain control.I tried a
Google search and all I got was a topic on a development release of a
VM.Cansomeone help me with this error?

Hello All,
Its good to see you all sharing ideas and contributing towards the
open source revolution.Well, I got introduced to linux only a month
ago by one of my coworkers, and I must admit that I found it a bit
difficult to grasp at first.As I am starting to get used to it I am
finding it more productive as compared to Windows and getting more
excited about it I recently bought an eeePC, Its a marvellous
combination of mobility and productivity, what more would you want in
a notebook?
Since I am really new to Linux, I would really appreciate if you'll
could help me improving my linux skills.Could you please suggest me on
whats the best way of learning Linux in your opinion ? I mean do you
learn by yourself by means of trail and Error or Its worth attending
some professional Linux Training ?
Also does anyone know of Good Linux training Institutes in Vashi ? is
anyone here from around Vashi area ?
Thanks,
Rehman

Hi all
I have been using bluetooth for the past few years. My experience has been
improving all the time!
The first time I got a cheap chinese bluetooth when I was using FC3. It was
detected and running fine after installing bluez manually. And sometime
later , I believe after FC5 , bluetooth kernel support was present .
I use KDE , so I have been using kdebluetooth. The versions of kdebluetooth
till fc7 , came with KBemused server too, which allowed me to control amarok,
xmms and noatun from my Nokia Symbian SMartphone. The version in F8 is
lacking this functionality. But the good thing is, if you click on Bluetooth
icon in the tray, you get a window showing all detected devices.
From there I double clicked on my Phone's (N75) icon, I saw 2 services, OBEX
Push and OBEX FTP. On clicking obex-ftp , i can see 2 drives (C: and E:) as
seen through USB!! And its usable to drag and drop files, I use this method
to copy images clicked on my phone.
Also one interesting application for the geeky types, if you have a shared
computer at home with 2 siblings fighting for chatting acces :-( , one of
you can chat through the cell phone using the computer's net connection via
Bluetooth !!
I have written a small hot-to for this, at
http://fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=125682
I had written this when I was using FC5 . Some things may have changed in the
bluetooth config since then , as I have not tried it in F8 . It worked fine
with F7 .
For contact sync with KDE, you can use kitchensync . You will have to install
libopensync, its plugins and libsyncml using yum . And there is one more
plugin needed
libopensync-plugin-syncml
whose packages are not available but source can be obtained at opensync.org .
The contacts are synced with Kontact and even the reminders,notes and stuff I
think( which I havent tried).
Cheers

Hi all,
I am a GNU/Linux user from Pune. I like to blog about the various

Hi all,
We are an p2p group named wikiocean (www.wikiocean.net) which
uses & supports free software in whichever way possible.
Most of the time when people are looking for solutions on
GNU/Linux platform they are unsure of service support.
In that context we are looking to make a database of freelancers,
small & medium support centres who are providing GNU/Linux service
support to Individuals, NGO's, small & medium organisations . As
GNU/Linux is a wide-wide world for time efficiency's sake we have
chosen ubuntu as it has the commercial support of Canonical while at
the same time has the technical stability & expertise courtesy the
Debian Universe. So if you are interested in knowing more, please
join http://groups.google.com/group/wikiubuntu.

LINUX is basically a simple operating system, but you have to be a genius to
understand the simplicity
