My OpenSolaris DVD is not working. How can i get a replacement.

[Deutero]

Hi Devrath_ND,

You need to send a mail to help@thinkdigit.com and someone will get back to you regarding your problem.

[toofan]

I watched the videos of the readers meet and the other events and the pics. and opps i missed these events. There was a reader meed at moradabad but that's too at a distance of 4hrs form my town.

But those videos shows that there must be so much fun and knowledge sharing. Please give other videos also. A the conversation of web conference if can be given in the DVD next month would be very helpful for others who missed these events due to their nature of work.

Good work.

@toofan, you're in luck. Webinar recordings will be on the next DVD ^_^

Hey guys, what about this? Please tell me. And why only two game reviews a month?? I love your mag. for all the thing, but gets jealous of CHIP 'cause, I subscribed to you guys! They review 5 games a month! Darn!

[ash]

If you want game reviews and lots of them, try SKOAR.

[cyberjunkie]

@nvidiageek: We love games as much as you do! There aren't many good games releasing every month. There's so much in the magazine itself that we have to cut down on the game reviews for these months. We'll keep that in mind though.

recieved my copy on 2nd bt not happy with the content & 2nd dvd not working ........

still ok ... i dont need THAT dvd .... bye bye 2 good old digit & welcome 2 new FAAL2 ....

@ax3
We like feedback and we take everyone's suggestions and complaints very seriously.

However, here's my personal opinion about your reaction.

I understand the importance and value of money but I think you're highly overreacting.

The feedback thread is for giving suggestions and telling what you didn't like. We'll always push to improve on that. I don't think anyone will agree with you that everything this month including the DVD is rubbish.

Although we respect everyone's opinion, I think you're doing so for the sake of mocking something or the other. The kind of comments you've posted in other threads on this forum paint a similar picture.

[NVIDIAGeek]

Thank you, cyberjunkie. You are the only one for the Team to reply to our problems . I hope you guys review more games in the coming months. Your best issue to me was Dec. 2008, it had so many good game reviews, hope that type of issue comes soon!

[ax3]

@cyberjunkie ... thanx 4 ur response ....

my frd .... u r right bt its my money & i dont think am getting the right product 4 it ....

i have been reading chip[old name]\digit since it was 1st published ... i liked it & it transformed me from a fresher 2 exp kinda thing ... bt some years back ur QUALITY is kinda going down IF compared with old issues & still i hoped 4 the best ... if u have access 2 old issues go through them & then u understand y am furious ... coz my fav mag is slipping ....

Mag contents r sometimes OK [u can check old thread where i have appreciated articles & emailed writers also] ....

c its like ordering a DOMINOS pizza, u wait 4 somedays & whot u get is a roadside chappati with tamato sauce on it .... & U wont complain ???

my frd, its all MONEY ... U ppl keep on adding ADS in forum, site & mag 2 make money, right ..... bt whot abt the main contents ???

many users have suggested something 4 mag\site bt its on deaf ears .... i know u all r not a genie bt fine @least give something ... not vids bt content ....

Regarding DVD`s >>> Unboxing vids r 2 badly shot & explained ... eventhough the person knows whots inside, he acts like a dumb fella .... 1 laptop vid showed that, its battery was lying inside the box & ur smart fella tying 2 START the lappy without power & later realises his mistake [@least cut that part] ..... WOW, whot an electrifying guy ......

Unboxing vids r like showing us 1\2 cooked meal ... comeon @least start the device & show something .......

hush, this time am outta ur subscription .... last dialogue "Apni database se mera naam hamesha ke liye mita do" ....

I read this month's digit. Some review of this Rs. 4000/- barebones PC in India. Intel Atom with 512MB RAM and 160GB HDD. Seems like a great download rig cum home server.

@cyberjunkie or anyone else who were present in the REAL review: did it come with strings attached ?

[warriork007]

july issue is nice

magazine quality has really improved

i had a little problem reading the fonts of Ethical Hacking section. i think the color combination was not appropriate. it really strained my eyes. the info could have been more indepth.

the videos provided in dvd were really nice. again there was nothing good for linux except linux journals, they r really informative. i think digit should have a section dedicated to linux in their dvd.

i am also having a problem with open solaris. i am not able to log in through it. can anybody please help. is there any predefined username and password.

although i was expecting fedora 11. it was disappointing not to find it in, but something is better than nothing(trying my hands on open solaris) but i am too restless to wait for it in the next months issue so would have to download it instead.

all in all july issue is good one. i am still reading it.

hope u help me out with open solaris issue

[cyberjunkie]

@MetalheadGautham: If you are talking about the Novatium Internet PC, it's something that is sold or given along with internet connections from BSNL. It might be available on a rental basis too. AFAIK, it's a customized Linux distribution which won't let you install anything. There's your catch

@warriork007: XWindows usually loads even without logging into the OS. Try jack as the username and password.

I liked the articles on
*Mobile Malware
*Ethical Hacking
*Security Lessons from the UK on CCTV
*How Conficker works (There is a BIG TYPO on the page, in orange font, CONFLICKER)
*Security Suites (I'm glad I am using McAfee)
*And offcourse Last Word

The article on WiFi components
I understand zone 1,2 and 3 is based on signal strength, but wouldn't it be nice to have the physical distance (broadcast range) of the router/AP in the absence of any physical barriers?

And I did not like this AD.



By your own standards it's ILLEGAL. Tell me if I am wrong :-P

And offtopic, I renewed my subscription online this month, payed by credit card. I though processing of online subscriptions would be fast ?! Yet to receive any kind of electronic acknowledgement.

The renewal form you enclosed with my magazine tore when I opened the cover. It was stuck to the cover, in the glued/sticker flap :-S Your packaging people should be more careful.

[Devrath_ND]

Thanks for starting maxim advertisements again.
