[Ilugc] Did Microsoft Just Kill Ubuntu Tablets?
http://www.muktware.com/news/3217/did-microsoft-just-kill-ubuntu-tablets There is no doubt that Canonical is looking at the ARM based hardware for its tablets. But Microsoft seemed to have nipped Ubuntu's Tablet in the bud. The company tweaked its Windows Hardware Certification Requirements to effectively ban most alternative operating systems on ARM-based devices that ship with Windows 8. On page 116 of Microsoft's The Certification Requirements, there is a clear instructions for hardware vendors that under no circumstance should the installation of another OS be permitted. MANDATORY: Disabling Secure MUST NOT be possible on ARM systems. This is assumingly the platform Ubuntu was looking for. So, does that mean Microsoft just killed all the possibilities of ARM-based Ubuntu Tablets? ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

I feel they have no special incentive Of course they do. It is foolish that Microsoft will not become relevant for ARM soon. Not in the same level obviously but hardware manufacturers are certainly not ignoring the requirements. There already is hardware being released that is certified.

[Ilugc] Ctl+l
Fellow linux fans; The Ctl+l shortcut refuses to clear screen as it used to. It has decided not to obey bash and has taken a life of its own; returns a puny 'l' ! Any solutions, I am in Squeeze! Of course 'clear' still works. Regards Podi ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
Re: [Ilugc] Ctl+l
ctrl+'L' works fine for me . Try checking the keyboard shortcuts on the terminal you are using and also check the profile preferences in the tab Compatibility. You should try using the default settings. On 17 January 2012 06:55, Jacob G Podipara podi...@gmail.com wrote: Fellow linux fans; The Ctl+l shortcut refuses to clear screen as it used to.

If so, press the ESC key and then do Ctrl + L. You need to press 'i' again to start typing :). Otherwise, if you are comfortable enough with the default key bindings(emacs), then do set -o emacs in your bashrc file. That would solve the problem.

Re: [Ilugc] Web site hosting query
Hi, You have to update (or add) your ip address to the domain name. You can get info for those from the domain name vendor itself. Once this is done after a one day hitting your domain will give your page properly. Thanks. I have done the same.

Any idea of how much it would cost? Find a exact same model from some junkyard. Yank the controller board on the HDD. If it spins, you are lucky. If it doesn't, it needs an equivalent of brain surgery like replacing the spindle motor and the such which are best left to the expensive data recovery specialists. -- Regards, Rajagopal ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
Re: [Ilugc] web framework query
Hi, i want to develop the website which is very simple (mostly informative) just like companies websites. (no forum,wiki,content mgmt etc) you need a CMS - wordpress is more than enough. (of course if you want something secure, go for plone. I tried wordpress. its really nice and easy to use. I developed the website in few days. Are they any such framework which just use php alone (without mysql),html,stylesheet. Because my website doesnt require mysql (no database related activity) , Also hosting cost is high with database support. (For ex: without mysql support, just 500Rs per year(approx). with mysql support 1600Rs per year(approx)). Please share your suggestions.
