How to find drivers for Unknown Devices


Usually, when you buy any hardware the drivers come along with it on a disc. If you lose the driver disc you can always download the necessary drivers from the manufacturer's website. But what do you do when you are not sure of the manufacturer of the hardware? This is quite a possible situation and blogger Vinod Chandramouliprovides an excellent trick to deal with it.
Every device has a Vendor and Device id associated with it. If you can find this ID, you can find the manufacturer. In Windows it's easy to find the vendor and device id.
  1. Open Device Manager (Control Panel>System>Hardware>Device Manager)
  2. The hardware whose drivers are missing will appear as Unknown device, so it's easier to locate the device.
  3. Right click on the unknown device and click on Properties.
  4. Under the Properties window click on Details tab and select Device Instance Id from the drop down box.
  5. You should see a code similar to this

    PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27DC&SUBSYS_30868086
    &REV_01\4&1E46F438&0&40F0

  6. The portion of the code highlighted in RED is the Vendor ID and the portion highlighted in GREEN is the Device ID. In this example:

    Vendor ID = 8086
    Device ID = 27DC 

  7. Once you have obtained both the IDs, proceed to PCI Database. There you can either search for the vendor from the vendor ID or directly get information about the device along with the vendor name by searching with the device ID.
Great isn't it? Now you will never have to go hunting for correct drivers.

Creating start up service in Ubuntu

I was trying to add startup script for my tomcat service, so wrote the following commands and it pretty much solved it.


update-rc.d FOO defaults
mv catalina-dmd /etc/init.d/
chmod +x /etc/init.d/catalina-dmd

Uploading jar into local maven

So here is the commands I did to upload my jars into local maven .m2 folder


mvn install:install-file -Dfile=CKFinder-2.1.jar -DgroupId=com.fm.ckfinder -DartifactId=core -Dversion=2.1.0 -Dpackaging=jar -DgeneratePom=true

mvn install:install-file -Dfile=CKFinderPlugin-FileEditor-2.1.jar -DgroupId=com.fm.ckfinder -DartifactId=file-editor -Dversion=2.1.0 -Dpackaging=jar -DgeneratePom=true

mvn install:install-file -Dfile=CKFinderPlugin-ImageResize-2.1.jar -DgroupId=com.fm.ckfinder -DartifactId=image-resize -Dversion=2.1.0 -Dpackaging=jar -DgeneratePom=true

Then I edited core-2.1.0.pom and added the dependencies




com.fm.ckfinder
file-editor
${project.version}


com.fm.ckfinder
image-resize
${project.version}



That's all!
