RE: [Wlug] Comcast experiences ?

by Hemstreet, Jeffrey L (Jeffrey)

I have & like Charter... I had the same MAC problem 0->O when they typed it in. I've had less than 6 outages at an average of about day each time over the past 3 years. Tech support can take forever to get to since you call into level 1 and they ask the "is your PC plugged into the modem?" questions, but the second-level support is pretty good. Speed is good. 768K base service, but some people are getting 1.5-2 in areas that aren't limited.

RE: [Wlug] Charter experiences? -was:Comcast experiences ?

by Martin, Eric

Um...what package did you have with Verizon / Charter? Last I checked, verizon was 49.99, and Charter only adds on $35 to your cable bill if you already have any form of cable (or it costs an extra 10 or 11 if you don't)...Granted those are base rates, but...'sides, buy the bridge, you can get one from Best Buy for $60 or less if you get rebates....

Charter charges ~10 dollars more than Verizon DSL including a rent for cable modem but they gave us 2Mbits (I Think they're now giving 3Mbits) Besides the higher bandwidth, most of the time especially in the evenings I experienced latencies, if it's the right word to use. For example, I click on an ordinary link, wait for sometime and *then* it finally starts loading which is fast, of course. So I got back to Verizon again. I have 1.5Mbits and I'm fine enough. Regarding the customer support, all I can say is they did not refund anything when I canceled my subscription in 20 days. Neither the installation fee(although I had to do it myself, since there was no working version of windows) nor usage fee. baris _______________________________________________ Wlug mailing list Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug

Speakeasy.net has good bandwidth and service but the most endearing quality is that they encourage reselling the service to the neighbors. You can become an ISP or WISP. If you like, they will even take care of the billing for you and give you 1/2 the charges. I think they would rather sell T1 service and let us take care of the local neighborhood. Service can quickly become free if you serve a few neighbors on your LocalArea Network.

RE: [Wlug] Comcast experiences ?

by Doug Geiger

I've been using charter for almost 2 years now. Although about six months ago they seemed to be doing a lot of upgrades (the base service now is supposed to be 2MB/s), and we were losing connection almost every weekend, it seems to be much better right now. I did also find that a simple complaint got me free month(s) of service, as long as I waited on hold long enough, and complained loud enough. It ends up being ~$50 if you choose to rent the cable modem from them (you can obviously buy your own down at Best Buy, or CompUSA), but it's nice that they foot the bill to replace the modem if anything seems to be wrong with it. The main thing I miss from DSL is a static IP, and a TOS that is server-friendly. But, I knew that when I signed up, and in general, I'm happy with the service. -- Doug Geiger runexe(a)ece.wpi.edu runexe(a)wpi.edu runexe(a)ieee.org dgeiger(a)alum.wpi.edu -----Original Message----- From: wlug-bounces(a)mail.wlug.org [mailto:wlug-bounces@mail.wlug.org] On Behalf Of Mike Frysinger Sent: Sunday, May 16, 2004 3:06 AM To: wlug(a)wlug.org Subject: Re: [Wlug] Comcast experiences ? err, replace every occurence of 'comcast' with 'charter' :) -mike _______________________________________________ Wlug mailing list Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug

SuSE 9.1

by Andy Stewart

HI everybody, I've received my copy of SuSE 9.1 and I've gotten it installed on my laptop. Here are my thoughts so far. 0) SuSE 9.1 comes on 2 double-sided DVDs and 5 CDs. There are 64 and 32-bit versions, so one must used the proper side of the DVD. 1) It took 2 hours to upgrade from SuSE 9.0 to SuSE 9.1 on my 1 GHz Sony Vaio laptop using the DVD. That seemed long to me. 2) It uses the 2.6.4 kernel. One new feature of that kernel caused me some temporary grief since I didn't understand what it was doing. The "subfs" filesystem type is used for removeable media. The user doesn't need to mount any CD or floppy, just put in the medium and reference it with "ls /media/ floppy" or whatever. The operating system figures out that the medium isn't mounted, mounts it, carries out your wish, and then unmounts it. Sometimes, I find this a bit annoying, but perhaps I'm just not yet used to it. 3) The ACPI power management on my laptop now actually works! Well, it works for the root user, anyway (kpowersave). I actually got about 45 minutes on a battery (instead of 10). The PCMCIA wireless card really suck the life out of the battery when used! I'm diving into the code to figure out why kpowersave won't work for J-random-user. There's probably some executable that needs setuid root or some such. I suspect I can be more agressive about power saving to get close to 60 minutes out of it. 4) I said "bye-bye" to the ide-scsi module, especially after reading some notes about Linus' opinion of that module and the author of cdrecord. Things work fine without it. 5) Sound works great after one simple command. 6) I got wireless, grub, the printer, the hard wired network, and even (I think) the onboard modem working very easily. I've never had the onboard modem working previously. 7) The network devices are a little weird in 2.6. There isn't an "ifup eth0" or "ifup eth1" like there used to be. On my system, its "ifup eth-id-00:00:00:00:00:00" (fill in your MAC address). Once its up and you see it with ifconfig, the "standard" ifdown command works as always. 8) SuSE 9.1 comes with KDE 3.2.1, with which I haven't yet played.

Linux and mssql

by aramico＠duahati.com

Friends, I have a problem here... Is anyone of you using Microsoft SQL Server 2000 that of course run on Windows 2000 Advanced Server where the developing is done in Linux with its integration such as php and apache. I have re-configured my php configuration and add the configuration needed for the mssql integration : Before, my php is running perfect with this configuration : ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --enable-memory-limit --enable-ftp --enable-bcmath --enable-track-vars --enable-calendar --enable-dio --with-gmp --with-java=/usr/local/java --with-openssl=/usr/local/openssl --with-gd --with-pdflib=/usr/local --with-gettext --with-mm=/usr/local/mm/ --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local --with-mcrypt --with-mhash --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-pgsql=/usr/local/pgsql --with-xml Now, mssql's need are included, so the reconfiguration looks like: ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --enable-memory-limit --enable-ftp --enable-bcmath --enable-track-vars --enable-calendar --enable-dio --with-gmp --with-java=/usr/local/java --with-openssl=/usr/local/openssl --with-gd --with-pdflib=/usr/local --with-gettext --with-mm=/usr/local/mm/ --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local --with-mcrypt --with-mhash --with-iodbc=/usr/local --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-pgsql=/usr/local/pgsql with-mssql=/usr/local/freetds --with-xml The diffrent is only placed on: --with-iodbc=/usr/local and --with-mssql=/usr/local/freetds but error happens as these shown bellow: 1. On installing linux odbc ( unixODBC-2.2.8.tar.gz ), error is: . . . checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths! what does it mean ? Well, I've already use the rpm version. 2. On php's progress in configuring : configure: warning: with-mssql=/usr/local/freetds: invalid host type . . . checking for the location of libtiff... no checking for jpeg_read_header in -ljpeg... (cached) yes ./configure: cd: yes: No such file or directory checking for png_create_info_struct in -lpng... no configure: error: libpng not found! whats the relation between iodbc and mssql to this ? Is Linux not supporting development using php where the database is using MSQL ? Can somebody help me ? I need to develope using php where the database is on MSSQL Server 2000 on windows 2000 advanced server. Thanks. Aramico

I could see about getting your resume into the proper peoples hands if you'd be interested in that? Later, Tim. -----Original Message----- From: Andy Stewart [mailto:andystewart@comcast.net] Sent: Monday, May 10, 2004 5:38 PM To: Worcester Linux Users' Group Subject: [Wlug] Need topic for May meeting HI all, Well, I'm trolling for a topic for this meeting, and I'm sure that as always, we'll come up with something. Along the lines of my previous email, are there any "serious" web developers out there who would care to show us how they do it with Linux ? If not, are there volunteers in the audience who'd like to address WLUG on some topic? The floor is open.....
