[Ilugc] [OT] [COMMERCIAL] Get listed for FREE in India's first Yellow Pages for FOSS & Linux firms
Hey all! Posting some information that's being sent out LFY's advt/sales department. You may find it handy Best, Atanu --- Here's an opportunity for FOSS consultants and firms to get FREE publicity through LINUX For You! Our interaction with IT managers has revealed that one of the biggest obstacles faced by them while reviewing FOSS solutions is lack of information about potential solution providers. It seems that if they had multiple options, they would feel more comfortable in discussing their challenges with different solution providers, and thus having the confidence that they were taking an informed decision. To bridge this gap, LINUX For You has been working on creating a Yellow Pages section within the magazine itself, where anyone seeking a Linux/FOSS solution provider can find them through a category-wise listing. In the last 2-3 months, we have managed to collate a list of over 50 solution providers. But, we believe that there are many more out there, and the real value of FOSS Yellow Pages (FYP) will only emerge once decision makers have ample choice to work with. THUS, THE SPECIAL OFFER: Any firm**, be it a one-man consultancy or an MNC, can get listed for FREE under any ONE category of their choice. This offer is open till 31st December 2008 or till we reach our goal of listing 100 firms in FYP. This free listing will be applicable till March 2009, and could be extended if things work out well. Oh! The Yellow Pages listing will also be made available online, shortly. To enlist your organisation for FREE, you can download the form from http://www.openitis.com/fyp/ [Please ignore the tariff mentioned in the FYP leaflet -- those are applicable to only those who want to enlist under additional categories.] If you have doubts or queries, please feel free to call Dhiraj Khare at 011-26810601 or 02 or 03 (extn: 230) -- he will be more than happy to facilitate your entry. Hope to keep playing a role in growing the India FOSS ecosystem with your support... Yours truly, LINUX For You Sales & Marketing Team **To ensure that firms listed in FYP are genuine, we will seek one of the following: (a) proof of incorporation of the firm, or (b) proof of a current account for the firm ___ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with "unsubscribe " in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
[Ilugc] PHP 5.2.7 has been removed from distribution
Due to a security bug found in the PHP 5.2.7 release, it has been removed from distribution. The bug affects configurations where magic_quotes_gpc is enabled, because it remains off even when set to on. In the meantime, use PHP 5.2.6 until PHP 5.2.8 is later released. PHP 5.2.8 released!!! The PHP development team would like to announce the immediate availability of PHP 5.2.8. This release addresses a regression introduced by 5.2.7 inregard to the magic_quotes functionality, that was broken by an incorrect fix to the filter extension. All users who have upgraded to 5.2.7 are encouraged to upgrade to this release, alternatively you can apply a work-around for the bug by changing "filter.default_flags=0" in php.ini.

[Ilugc] Backup of Large File, error.
Hi, I've mounted a samba share (smbfs), and tried to backup my files, to it. I tried 3 methods, using file-roller GUI(creating tar on mounted drive), normal 'cp -R' method, and rsync. All of them failed in between, because some (2) files are very large in size, 2.9GB, and 4.3GB. What could possibly be the mistake? It usually gives some message like, "Large File Size", or something, rsync just fails, with some error. Will creating an iso, with 'dd' help/work? Also, I want to include all hidden files, so, should I need to turn 'shopt dotglob' on?

Publishers have expressed direct concerns that they can't do without Photoshop/ Pagemaker and Wherever we conducted Ubuntu Release event Tally was the key application people insisted whether or not an alternative/ replacement is there.. Luckily both appeared working with Wine in Ubuntu 8.10 and there was good amount of joy in the faces of users. But even if it works we need a replacement asap.

Hi ! Like using wine another practical option is the route taken by some of the medium sized enterprises here in North America. It is possible to run Xp machine in a virtualised environment like kvm. That way out of say 20 linux machines one or two will run Xp Vms and should suffice for small business. It is not 100% replacement but even 95% is a progress in replacing windows ! Another option is using a hosted version so that only a browser is required. Of course nothing like a replacement. Quasar works well but is it like quickbooks tailored for North American market. If any of you want to work on it and "indianise" it and making it suitable for Indian market, I am willing to help out. Kalculate is made for Indian market but I dont know what are the issues.

In brief, this event gives you a problem statement and a base code. You have to develop the base code and submit your work incremently. As in the open source world, you are not expected to develop the whole software by yourself. You can develop modules of any size and integrate it with the base code and submit to us. We'll evaluate your submission and reward you. There are also a handfull of bugs in the base code, which you can report to us. Bug Reports and Bug Patches also carry points. At the end of the day its about colloborative development of software in a competitive manner. Its going to be a lot of fun especially with the unique time based points which we deliver you. Moreover, its fully ONLINE. This event is designed for everybody from novice to expert. So there's food for everyone's appetite. Excited..?

How many firms are *really* using tinyerp/openerp in India? Claims of extensive deployment/usage should be validated (e.g. on openerp web site or the consultant's web site). On a side note, I have not had much success getting openerp to work on Ubuntu 8.04 and Centos 5.2. I have followed the instructions for installing from the source (ensuring required libs etc.). The "server" python script bombs with error messages (plan to follow up on them on the openerp mailing list). -- Arun Khan ___ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with "unsubscribe " in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

I have been able to get TinyERP to install and work on Fedora 9/10. And OpenERP 5.0 RC1 on Windows.

I thought it is better to check with IE on windows so as to rule out any other problem arising out of " IE on Linux" implementation - leaving alone other issues like legalities etc. Looks like IE has got its own share of problems without our help !
