Dear linux Users
I use RH EL 3, Every thing is working fine but
MySql is giving problem while installing.
The Error shown is libmysql.so.10 file required
The file is already present on the system.
I want to use this system as LAMP server. Any other
alternative.
Advice.

Hello All,
Sometimes if making a full switch to GNU/Linux is difficult, there are
Libre alternatives to commercial closed softwares available for the
windows platform too.
For Photoshop, there is the Gimp alternative. http://www.gimp.org/ Its
ready packages are available at
http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/stable.html
Download all the packages on this page. Install the GTK for your OS
version. Then install Gimp. Then its help package (Select only English
during installation). Then the animation package if required.
For Corel Draw, there is the Inkscape alternative.
http://www.inkscape.org/ The exe file is available at
http://inkscape.modevia.com/win32/?M=Dhttp://inkscape.modevia.com/win32/Inkscape-0.45-1.win32.exe

Hi people,
I'm stuck at home due to the rains and so took up something I had been
putting away. Ok here goes:
Hardware:
PC1 is connected to the net via cable modem attached to eth0 w/ IP
aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd
PC1 has a SMC wifi card running under ndiswrapper. Shows up as wlan0
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.1.202
netmask 255.255.0.0
gateway aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd
PC2 has a ProNet wifi card. Atheros chipset. Shows up as ath0
auto ath0
iface ath0 inet static
address 192.168.1.203
netmask 255.255.0.0
gateway aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd
PC2 has no other connectivity.
Both PCs are running Kubuntu Feisty. There is no firewall running on
either machine while I am trying this stuff.
Task 1 : to connect both PCs so that they can atleast ping each other.
This is what I get.
----------------------------------------------------------------
sharukh@natrum:~$ ping -c5 192.168.1.203

connection.

You know how most packages say "Open here". What is the protocol if
the package says, "Open some-where else"?
Hi All,
I have a requiremnet of authenticating users for the samba service using ADS (windows) and not the Local linux users.
Grateful if anyone could help

Dear All,
We are organizing a Firefox community event in association with Mozilla
Foundation on 14th July at Magnet office in Kandivali East.
I have just posted the plan here:
http://www.mehtanirav.com/2007/06/29/join-hands-with-firefox/
Was thinking we can also do the GLUG meet that evening at our place.
Dibya Prakash has agreed to take a session on Ruby On Rails.
Everyone is invited to attend the Firefox event, as well as the LUG
meet. We can keep the LUG meet between 5.30 to 7PM.
Comments welcome.

Interesting. Beagle works fine for me!
Anyway, if you still not satisfied with it and wants KDE thingy,
recoll is way to go.
<shameless advertise>
If you use Debian/Ubuntu, you can download it from:
http://packages.debian.org/recoll
</shameless advertise>
Google Desktop is only for i386!

Well they finally did it and a beta is out already -
http://desktop.google.com
A quick review -
1. Its fast and returns good results
2. Its still (beta) heavy ( 13 MB footprint in memory ) as compared to
windows counterpart.
3. Its very responsive and easy to use.
4. The directories it searches by default is pretty good.
5. Extensible with other plugins. Am not sure how many plugins will
work with the linux one.
6. Works with Ubuntu ( the favored one these days ) and rh/sles.
7. Bad bad thing - closed source. They should really find way to wrap
their algorithms than closing off the entire app.
Beagle with its mono bindings was a bit too slow for me ( i could hear
my laptop hdd whir ). And trackerd with catfish was more than tricky
to configure for any relevant results.
So as of now google desktop wins the competion ( was there one ?)
despite its flaws.
whats your take on it ?

Hi,
Now that beryl and compiz have kissed and made up, the new improved
kid on the block is called "Compiz Fusion"
A nice how to for ubuntu-users - http://vorian.org/?p=82
Basically you need the packages from Trevino's repositories.
If you face problem with video playback windows then using ccsm
(compizconfig settings manager ) add this to "General Options" >
"Opacity Settings" > "Opacity windows" >
((type= Unknown | Menu | PopupMenu | DropdownMenu | Tooltip |
Notification | Combo | Dnd | name=sun-awt-X11-XWindowPeer) |
(type=Normal & override_redirect=1)) & !(name=sun-awt-X11-XFramePeer |
name=sun-awt-X11-XDialogPeer | name=MPlayer )
Oh and keep watching for the new zoom out plugin. It works flawlessly
on my measly T42 with 512 MB ram and ATI Mobility.
regards,
C
