Indeed, this is where both Bill Gates and Richard Stallman agree.
BASIC is a joke. No REAL PROGRAMMER should program in BASIC. Billu

LETTER TO HOBBYISTS By William Henry Gates III February 3, 1976 
(http://www.blinkenlights.com/classiccmp/gateswhine.html)

I started programming in BASIC and I still remember the GOTO and GOSUB 
statements.  Debugging them on a hard copy (since access to Comp Lab was 
restricted) was a real nightmare. I think people are lucky now that they 
have access to GCC, GDB, Emacs (may the true prophet's name shine 
forever) and Real OS and a Real HTTP server.

The author (Dan Bricklin) seems like a clueless idiot who is mouthing 
the sound bites offered by some marketing high priest. Anyone comparing 
Bill and Stallman must have his head examined. And let me not even get 
started on people who call Bill Gates a hacker. How the fu** can anyone 
compare someone who writes a BASIC interpreter to someone who churns out 
Emacs and GDB ?

OK, enough bile has flown out, time to shut up now :-)

Hi all ,
Now that i am windows free, i am going on with managing my life in Linux
(Mandrake 10). I have a whole lot of photos and more keep getting added
fast. In Windows i used Adobe Photoshop Album which in my mind is
absolutely amazing. I looked around in Linux and currently am trying
Digikam. Its pretty good but a big light on the features. I wanted to
get an idea on what others are using before i try to download a whole
bunch and trying them. My camera (Sony P8) does not support PTP but
works great in the USB mass storage mode so that should be ok to
transfer pics. I need a good cataloging system that can help me manage
my albums. Also something that can automatically get pic info and
display that as well as make thumbnails.
thanks ,

 Okay, go ahead you can mix (or remix) Linux and Linux
desktops in introduction to GNU intro, but keep
everything limited to 15minutes. 
 It will be really good if you can give an intro to
how a system is cracked. (You can have 25 minutes

Hello,

Subject: [Care2002-developers] [Humor] newsgroup behavior
Date: Fri, 19 Mar 2004 10:34:36 +
From: J. Antas [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This is a humoristic view of the dynamics of a special interest email
list, like a health related list.

Warning: those boring creatures with a censor vein please read 156 and 3
first.
See it this way, how could one operate an open source health information
system in a dark hospital room without a working light bulb?
This post even has a nice [Humor] tag that enables it to be filtered
out, or, if you need even better protection from distracting
(enlightening?) emails just filter out this poster email address.

- -- Start --
Q:  How many internet mail list subscribers does it take
 to change a light bulb?

A:  1,331:
 1 to change the light bulb and to post to the mail
   list that the light bulb has been changed
14 to share similar experiences of changing light
   bulbs and how the light bulb could have been
   changed differently.
 7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs.
27 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about
   changing light bulbs.
53 to flame the spell checkers
   156 to write to the list administrator complaining about
   the light bulb discussion and its inappropriateness
   to this mail list.
41 to correct spelling in the spelling/grammar flames.
   109 to post that this list is not about light bulbs and
   to please take this email exchange to alt.lite.bulb
   203 to demand that cross posting to alt.grammar,
   alt.spelling and alt.punctuation about changing
   light bulbs be stopped.
   111 to defend the posting to this list saying that we
   are all use light bulbs and therefore the posts
   **are** relevant to this mail list.
   306 to debate which method of changing light
   bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs,
   what brand of light bulbs work best for this
   technique, and what brands are faulty.
27 to post URLs where one can see examples of
   different light bulbs
14 to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly, and
   to post corrected URLs.
 3 to post about links they found from the URLs that
   are relevant to this list which makes light bulbs
   relevant to this list.
33 to concatenate all posts to date, then quote
   them including all headers and footers, and then
   add Me Too.
12 to post to the list that they are unsubscribing
   because they cannot handle the light bulb
   controversey.
19 to quote the Me Too's to say, Me Three.
 4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ.
 1 to propose new alt.change.lite.bulb newsgroup.
47 to say this is just what alt.physic.cold_fusion
   was meant for, leave it here.
   143 votes for alt.lite.bulb.

also, open nautilus, go to the image directory, and select View As

Re: [ilugd] Digital Photo Management

sourceforge lists several dozen photo gallery software. what you are
looking for, is a photo-cataloguing software.

i do remember a very good and powerful one running a huge
creativecommons site with thousands of images. that's the one you want.
you can search by keywords and other attram-shattram.

just spent about 20 minutes for you, to dig this up, but couldn't find
it. if you follow the links for free images from creativecommons, you
may find one of them running on this god-inspired image-cataloguing
software.

imagemagick is also used for these purposes by several people.

ah! here it is! just found it! this is what you need. enjoy!

http://www.k-i-s.net/article.php?article=6

meant for professional photographers to catalog their images. others can
use it too.


another tip, for photo-touchup, use cinepaint. you may just forget
photoshop after sometime

Thanks , all of you who replied. What i really want is not something web

want some extras like resizing, slideshows etc. I realize that all this
can be done with various different software i just thought i can find
one that does all of it.
LL this software you found was a bit of overkill i think for what i
need. And the requirement for postgres certainly is something i don't
want to do.

Very true honorable LL Ji... But can we actually manage the show in 15
mins??? I don't think so...
Let us put our feet in the shoes of a newbie, would that be justified if
someone starts speaking with you in 'Hindi/Punjabi' and suddenly starts
'French' and the tragedy is that before that, everyone was enjoying the
show but now everyone else are enjoying the show except me along with
some few newbie and we are watching each others faces :-(

Introduction to GNU/Linux and then suddenly technojargon + flamewars +
netequitte flames + bla bla

Will that shed *off* my nervousness or...

Won't it be a great idea if we arrange the similar newbie meet after the

You need no extra modules, but you do need a new cdrecord 2.x:

Nope, it didn't ask for any Java path while installing.  Java was
available in /usr/local/bin, no questions asked at all.

Maybe this version of OOo hasn't been compiled with Java support at
all?  Is it possible to do that?

Hmm, maybe I should go through the source...

[And before you start knocking me about this strange proclivity for
Java, this is required to access a DB2 database on an AIX machine
using JDBC, the only option available :) ]

 I use Mplayer for watching VCD or playing music. It works absolutely 
 fine. It even does streaming for the sites which don't use real audio or 
 video format but not those like BBC and many others which are using real 
 audio and video.

i've not tried it myself, but i saw a link on real player site about
helix. helix is a media streaming server, and they've a client too which
plays all realmedia stuff. try that client.

also, a few months back i compiled mplayer on my machine. there was an
option there to download proprietory plugins for mplayer. so i assume
there must be something in mplayer through which yu can play streaming
real media.

if successful with any of these let the list know.

 There was a mail thread regarding this recently. Please check the
 archives for details.

 The gist is, that you have to make a symlink from the mozilla plugin
 provided inside the JRE to the plugin directory of mozilla for ti to work.

 No, it doesn't. You can use sendto(2) on any socket, connected or not.
 You need a connected socket only for send(2). Furthermore, please note
 that there is no such thing as a UDP connection by definition, since
 UDP is a connectionless protocol.

 The kernel allows you to call connect(2) on UDP sockets, to specify an
 arbitrary peer address, so that you can use send(2). But that's just a
 convenience.

  This gives me hint that to send such a packet I have to write a
  program that tries to connect on that port using UDP.

 Here's another hint: ask Google about UDP client example.

[ilugd] Kernel 2.6.0 woes

2004-03-22 Thread Raj Mathur
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Any kernel gurus here?

Upgraded to 2.6.0 a while back.  Everything (except the ones below) is
fine, the machine is fast, devices are recognised and working, etc.
BTW, I compile my own kernels, this one was no exception.

Issues:

1. APM+mouse.  I have a PS/2 mouse with the driver compiled as a
module.  Earlier when I suspended the system only a keystroke would be
able to unsuspend it.  However, now a mouse movement also unsuspends
the system.  Any clue how to disable that?  I prefer my systems to
remain suspended until explicitly told to unsuspend, and it's too easy
to brush against the mouse table when walking up and down.

2. KDE screenlock.  For some reason kcheckpass is refusing to accept
my password once the screen gets locked.  Used to work just fine with
2.4.x.  Weird...

3. CD writing.  How the heck DOES one write CDs with 2.6?  With 2.4.x
it was well-documented if not straightforward -- enable ide-scsi in
the kernel boot command line, do a scanbus and you're up and running.
With 2.6 apparently the ide-scsi is not needed any more.  So what is?
What modules need to be installed for writing CDs with cdrecord on an
IDE CD-R?  What's the device?

4. Modules.  Installed the new modutils and enabled module auto-load
in the kernel, but I still have to insert modules manually.

Any tips/pointers in the right direction for any/all of these issues
would be a great help.

Thanks,
