No way. Bcoz before the next month meet, Kumar will be @ Univ of Texas
for his PhD.

Apart from this, Porting talk was decided in the last meet itself and
Mr Luis availability on next month is also doubtful. And I don't want 
to miss the opportunity :)

Bye :)

One Day One GNU/Linux Command
=============================

sleep/usleep -- Sleep for a specified amount of time

Summary :

Sleep will introduce a delay for a specified seconds (Seconds may be
an arbitrary floating point number). usleep sleeps some no of micro-
seconds (default is 1).

Examples :

$ sleep 6  -- Sleep for 6 Seconds.

$ sleep 6s -- Sleep for 6 Seconds (Default).

$ sleep 6m -- Sleep for 6 Minutes.

$ sleep 6h -- Sleep for 6 Hours.

$ sleep 6d -- Sleep for 6 Days.

$ sleep 10.5 -- sleep for 10.5 Seconds.

$ usleep 200 -- Sleep for 200 mSec.

Sleep may NOT give a very accurate result on many machines.

Read : man sleep , usleep

HTH :)

Actually, I volunteer to withdraw my talk. I'll attend the meet though.

Too many cooks spoil the broth! :-) So consider my talk withdrawn.

Though I have no clue about the error, for getting back data
use a live cd like knoppix or use fc2- first cd and go into rescue mode,
mount the partition and copy data over the network .

May the filesystem in the partition is corrupt, try running fsck after backup.

"Google, like most other companies, requires a BS (equivalent) for all
their programming positions.

This probably is a direct application of an American idea to an Indian
population. The average Indian engineering graduate has spent 14 years
of cut-throat competition at school, the last 2 years of it
"coaching"
to get into a good college, 4 years of dubious college education, the
last 2 years of it getting coached for CAT."
