Bookmarks & history inaccessible in Firefox 3.5?

I have the same problem. i got a pop-up suggestion in Firefox itself(enclosing screenshot). I am also providing the link to the Mozilla help page I was led to-http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/The+bookmarks+and+history+system+will+not+be+functional?style_mode=inproduct

I have still not used it due to lack of time but will do it soon & also update the post then.

What should I do if Fedora 11 shows "Hard Disc Failing"?

What should I do if Fedora 11 shows "Hard Disc Failing"?

Is it anything serious?

I am attaching the screen-shots here on my blog-http:// aveek.wordpress.com/ & also uploading to the NIT Durgapur GLUG-named aveek1.png & aveek2.png.

If you go through the links provided by Indranil Das Gupta on the NIT Durgapur LUG mailing list(link above), we would see its NOTHING to worry about in most cases.

Using wireless data card(EVDO) in Linux

I got my BSNL EVDO card today itself. I used it for some time on my friend's laptop with Windows XP.  I had to install a driver. The attached disc with the EVDO(manufacturer-ZTE), had a file on Linux that stated that I had to modify the Kernel source code & all. However, all I did on my Fedora 11 was to edit network connections & add a "Mobile broadband"-->CDMA. I don't know why the vendor's default option didn't work(i got 3 options-vendor's, GSM & CDMA). I saved my username & password & I was instantly connected.
