Setting up an NTL Cable Modem on Linux using an Ethernet Card

"Setting up your cable modem using an Ethernet card is exactly like setting up your computer to join a network that uses DHCP. Don't worry if that sounds a bit
confusing as in Linux networks that use DHCP are by far the easiest to setup.

I'm writing this guide mainly aimed at Red Hat Linux/Fedora Core but many of the processes described here may well be the same for other Linux distributions.

In this guide I'm going to show you 3 different ways of setting up your cable modem. The first will be via a program called neat this runs in a GUI such as KDE or Gnome. Secondly I'll show you how to setup the cable modem using a program called netconfig this can be run either in a terminal window or at the command line and is useful if you aren't running a GUI. Finally I'll show you how to setup your cable modem manually by creating all the necessary configuration files that Linux needs to setup a network card"

PhotoRec - recover lost files

"PhotoRec is file data recovery software designed to recover lost files including video, documents and archives from Hard Disks and CDRom and lost pictures (thus, its 'Photo Recovery' name) from digital camera memory. PhotoRec ignores the filesystem and goes after the underlying data, so it will still work even if your media's filesystem has been severely damaged or re-formatted."
