[OT] Rootconf

Nigel Babu — 2012-05-18T02:45:32

Hey folks,

Just sending a note for anyone who's interested.  This is a forward of
the note we sent to the press and I thought there might be someone
interested in this event here as well.

HasGeek presents Rootconf, a conference for sysadmins and devops.
While our previous event, Meta Refresh, examined the engineering that
makes great UI possible, Rootconf looks at the back-end engineering
which makes the same websites secure and snappy regardless of the load
on them. Rootconf also looks at how these websites are hosted. We are
covering cloud and virtualization for cost-efficient hosting,
performance tuning, configuration management when you have multiple
servers, security, and monitoring.

Rootconf is open to practitioners of technology -- the people who
actually design, code and manage servers. Sessions will not only cover
how-to-do-it-yourself, but will also present insights and learnings on
how systems were built and the processes and decisions involved. The
conference features speakers from Red Hat, ThoughtWorks, Deep Root
Linux, among others. Some of the selected talks address:

* Creating and Provisioning Cloud Resources with AWS CloudFormation;
* Introduction to performance tuning in a managed environment;
* Continuous Integration with Jenkins and Hubot; and
* Automated and Adaptive Infrastructure Monitoring using Chef, Nagios
and Graphite

Details of the conference are:
Date: Saturday, 26th May, 2012
Venue: Dharmaram Vidya Kshetram, Christ College Campus, Dairy Circle, Bangalore
Time: 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM
Event website: http://rootconf.in

Tickets are available at rootconf.doattend.com

For more details, contact Nigel Babu (nigel< at >hasgeek.com) / 98869 09856

Regards
Nigel

Question - How are you downloading - torrent or download manager

It seems like your download method is hogging all the bandwidth - in
the torrent manager there should be a setting to "honor global limits"
meaning don't hog and / or limit download speed to foo n speed.

These options should be there in the download manager as well.

**
Pause your downloads and start another large download to see if this
problem repeats.

HI Jai,

I haven't faced this problem in Ubuntu ever. My network cable is highly
utilized by Downloads, VMs etc. and still the updates work fine for me. It
could be a problem with the network speed.

Jai Luthra — 2012-05-05T06:03:20

While i am downloading something or upgrading ubuntu, it takes all the
bandwidth and i cannot even open a webpage.
I never faced this problem in Windows.
Is it Linux Kernel's bandwidth management problem or an ubuntu-specific one?
I am using MTNL Broadband 512Kbps. New Delhi.

Re: BSBL Broadband on Linux

Rajiv Ranjan — 2012-04-25T08:50:56

Actually it is 192.168.1.1 and not 192.186.1.1. Follow the
instructions here
http://www.calcutta.bsnl.co.in/dataoneinstall/mu05.html.

I think the important thing is to configure the modem in such a way
that the username and password is entered during configuration itself.
This way when you switch on the modem it will get connected to the
internet automatically. You will not need to make a connection from
your computer and you can start browsing as soon as you switch on your
computer.

Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin Release Party

Rigved Rakshit — 2012-04-24T08:10:13

Hi everyone,

Ubuntu 12.04 will be released on 26th April, 2012 (Thursday).

The Release Party will be on 6th May, 2012 (Sunday) at 3:00 p.m. (The MI
match will start at 4:00 p.m., so I thought we should meet up before the
match. Then, people can enjoy the match too)!

The venue is Cafe Coffee Day, Inside Reliance TimeOut, Hill Road, Bandra
(W), Mumbai. This is near Elco Shopping Center. I have heard that this CCD
has wi-fi, in case anyone wants to try a Ubuntu install.

Registration URL: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/indian-team/1742/detail/

Best Regards,
Rigved Rakshit

Re: BSBL Broadband on Linux

Onkar Shinde — 2012-04-22T09:40:43

If it is not accessible at 192.168.1.1 then the address is probably
192.168.1.254.
It is also possible that it is not accessible because it is in bridged
mode. If that happens to be the case then give the network interface
static address in (ex. 192.168.1.10) for the time being. If you have
configured everything on modem (specifically DHCP) you can remove the
static address.
