I am not a writer

It's been 3 years , I took a break from blogging. What has happened to me in past three years? The answer is a bit lengthy, so you can expect them as blog posts here :). As the title of post says 'I am not a writer',still I wish to write. 3 years was a long break, to cover up that you can expect a few posts from me soon :) and I have also created a new blog cstechmind.wordpress.com , you can come across anything related to Computer Science here, so stay tuned to cstechmind as well :).

An Unforgettable Bday

How a b'day will become soo special??
When our dear ones are there with us to share all the joy, rite?

Yes,i believe so, and this was what that made my b'day so special this year :)

Unbelievable things happened in front of me...
I was able to cut the cake in front of my classmates which i never expected :). I had always wanted to celebrate the b'days in the class. And it was the first time in three years that a b'day was celebrated in the class..

But there were some unforgettable incidents, that happened on the day before.
I truly wish that it shouldn't have occurred. I am not able to forget those till now. Tears of my loved ones pierces my heart.
How can one bear this??
I don't know whether the 'someone' who is responsible for this knows the pain in the minds of people surrounded. But I understood that I love that 'someone' very deeply though I expressed it in the form of anger :(.

A b'day full of unexpected things...
A b'day that gave me the most happiest moments in my life and a bit of sorrow...
A b'day which makes me feel that I am loved by a lot of people around...

I will keep the memories of this b'day close to my heart...
My sweetest b'day with some sort of pain...
Thanks to all my friends who made my b'day soo special :) :)

Is GPA that counts the intelligence of a student??

I wonder why most people find "GPA" as a measure of student's intelligence.Is it enough to prove the talent of a student?Are people without a good GPA stupid?Never!!GPA/marks depends not only on the intelligence of a student,it also depends on luck,presence of mind during the exam.If a student couldn't perform well in a exam,it doesn't mean he/she don't know the subject.Its sometime a fate to get a bad grade in a subject.I also doubt whether who got good grade in a subject know it well or not.Of course yes,there are such people,i have a few friends like that.Some get good grades knowing the subject well and they never forget it.Also there are some category of people who get good grade in a subject n forget the subject when that semester is over.So how can a person count on GPA to know his/her intelligence??I think this is a very stupid logic of people.Especially in an Engineering stream,there is nothing to do with only grades.The person who get a good grade in a subject should also know what is its practical application,how it is related to the real world,how to implement it.Only then he/she is deserve that grade.But who cares??The colleges in the country only care about marks/grades of a student,not his/her talent.They give importance only those scholars!!Isn't it unfair??Dont the people with low GPA deserve a good job/or a good college for higher studies if they have a knowledge of the subject and talent in them?Think friends!!Pls feel free to comment!!

Use Live CD to edit/create Partition

These days,i find many people are facing problem after making new partition using(Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Computer Management->Diskmanagement).Though they are able to make new partition using this option in control panel,after rebooting a error comes out something like this
Grub loading..
no file system found
grub_rescue>
Any way you can fix this problem taking a little pain.But its quite difficult for newbies.So my recommendation is not to use this option to make/edit a partition.Instead use a live cd which has gparted,and make/edit partitions in it whatever way you want.This is very easy and fast also.You can create filesystems of diffrent format using gparted.But makesure you created a partition of ntfs format so that you can access it in windows machine also.

Grub loading. The symbol ' ' not found. Aborted. Press any key...

The title of this post was the error reported in my friend's lap.She said,she didn't do anything to cause such a error,I also didn't understand why that error came.Anyway my aim was to fix that error,i go-ogled and find a method to fix that problem.I want to share that with my blog readers.
Her lap had ubuntu 9.10 and Windows 7 in dual boot.
I tried the following commands to fix the problem

1. Boot with LiveCD
2. Open terminal
3. sudo fdisk -l (boot partition may be the one with the asterisk)

The Most Dedicated Profession

Have You ever thought which is the most dedicated profession?There are many...However I am going to share you with my thoughts about a profession which i admire the most,its all about a teacher..Ya its the teaching profession I admire most in my life.There are many reasons for that,first of all my mom is a teacher,I have seen soo nice qualities in her,her student's admiration,respect and love for her.I have always thought,in which profession we can always be young and have love of many people around us,its none other than teaching.

Finally Connected to Internet with LXU-800 Reliance USB Modem in Ubuntu 9.10

Tired up with installing Reliance LG LXU-800 USB modem on Linux? I spent lot of time to make it working with my Ubuntu OS. It works very well with Windows XP and Vista. A dialler application is available on CD from the vendor for Windows. But most of the users think it will not work under Linux. I do not tested it other than Ubuntu. It may work or may not with other versions with the same commands. The specifications given by the manufacturer are: CDMA 1x technology; Data speed upto 153.6 kbps; Voice and SMS services and Standard USB interface. You may not be able to use SMS and Voice services in Linux, but it can establish connection with Internet simply by dialing. Follow the given steps carefully while installing.
After booting up Ubuntu, login as root.

connect modem in the USB port.

Open terminal window and check the usb device

#lsusb

Using GParted to Resize Your Windows Vista Partition

One of the more advanced options for resizing your Windows Vista partition is to use the GParted Live CD, a bootable linux CD that takes you straight into GParted, the great linux utility for managing partitions. The problem is that if you resize your boot/system partition, you will be completely unable to boot without repairing windows.

Partition Wizard

Partition Wizard is a tool used to create/delete/manipulate the partitions easily.I have mentioned about Gparted in my earlier post.I was searching for similar tool which can be used in windows,and when i searched cnet.com,i found a tool called Partition Wizard.I really got impressed with this tool.It is a very easy and a handy tool,which can be used to manipulate partitions within seconds.It takes a lot of time to create partitions using diskmanagement(ControlPanel->Administrative Tools->Computer Management->Disk Management)utility in windows.This tool is very easy to understand.Those who dont know much about partitions can also easily understand everything using this tool,everything thing is graphically displayed.



I recommend readers to use this tool and save a lot of time in manipulating partitions.
