Re: [ilugd] Unable to setup HP 1005 printer on Ubuntu
I had successfully set up an HP Laserjet 1000 some time ago. You need to download the firmware and 'cat' it to the device whenever you plug the printer in (or switch it on). The printer will not function otherwise. Instead of manually uploading the firmware each time - you can set up hotplug to automatically do it for you. To top it of, IIRC, the firmware has been removed from all official HP download channels. Try searching for lj1000.exe (or a similar sounding filename) on Google to see if someone else has put the firmware up for download.

I do not remember the URL for this information but linuxprinting.org site gave me the work around and as long as the printer remains powered on it will keep working with whatever driver you load. You have to initialise the printer by giving a cat command and a download srcipt. I can look up thursday if you do not find any solution. Today being holiday at office. Alternatively google for this pon mailing list, I remember (vaguely) posting this solution a year or more back. Hi, Actually posting the solution would really help We have searched the net and got the following links ad even followed them up. But we are probably missing something somewhere - and the we are all non techies - so there is a good chance of missing something obvious. Yesterday we tried the following (with regards to the HP 1005). followed the links at http://wiki.clug.org.za/clugwiki/index.php/Adding_an_HP_LaserJet_1000_to_Linux http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-LaserJet_1005 I think I repeated what Vivek did earlier - to try and get some response - even a damn blinking LED from the printer but zilch first I did this $ wget http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/foo2zjs.tar.gz $ tar zxf foo2zjs.tar.gz $ cd foo2zjs Then I followed the following instructions Now compile and install it. The INSTALL file contains more detailed instructions; please read it now. Compile: $ make (Optional) Get extra files from the web, such as .ICM profiles for color correction, and firmware: $ ./getweb 1005# Get HP LJ1005 firmware file Then I did this: Install driver, foomatic XML files, and extra files: $ su # make install After this I tried gnome-cups-manager the print manager and tried to install and stuff but it continues to show both pbmtozjs and foo2zjs- but nothing seems to happen. I even tried the following sudo gedit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf 1.Find the the LogLevel option: LogLevel info and change the line to: LogLevel none – changed to this on Oct 11th 2005 Save, exit, and type in the command $ sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart still nothing *Are you suggesting that I do this* cat /usr/share/foo2zjs/firmware/sihp1005.dl /dev/usb/lp0 in cups script: /etc/init.d/cupsys I can open the said cupsys file and edit it ad add the line , the question is where - the file (when opened in gedit ) has a lot of colors and operators or whateever they are called. That am willing to try Secondly, would't I need to do this once the printer is working ?? which at the moment it is not. regards ram -- Sudev Barar Learning Linux ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/ ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
[ilugd] Touch and no go HP 1005
Okay So now I have conected a usb cable to the HP 1005 printer and ran the following command cat /usr/share/foo2zjs/firmware/sihp1005.dl /dev/usb/lp0 ad now it atleast acknowledges that it may work - it shows a paper out blinker and stuff but I still cannot print.

*Are you suggesting that I do this* cat /usr/share/foo2zjs/firmware/sihp1005.dl /dev/usb/lp0 Simply issue the command given above once you plug-in the printer, and hotplug detects/initializes that a USB printer has been plugged-in. After you uploaded the firmware the printer should make some whirring noises and some LEDs should blink.

[ilugd] apache2 and symlinks
hi, i am running django on two boxen, one mandrake10 and the other freebsd. Both run on apache2+mod_python. The media for the web app (css, images, js) is served from a directory on /home. This directory is symlinked to the main python site-packages directory. The freebsd install runs perfectly. On mandrake, apache2 cant access the media saying 'symlinks not allowed'. The httpd.conf files are identical in the the two installs. In the mandrake install, when the real path is given there is no problem. Even if i put 'Options +FollowSymLinks' in the mandrake install the same problem arises. Cannot find anything in httpd2.conf or httpdcommon.conf which is barring symlinks.

If you would like to be removed from this list, please click here: http://creativecommons.org/about/lessigletter#unsubscribe Alternatively, if you know others who might find these interesting, please recommend they sign up at http://creativecommons.org/about/lessigletter ] From our last episode: Creative Commons was launched in December, 2002. Within a year, we counted over 1,000,000 link-backs to our licenses. At a year and a half, that number was over 1,800,000. At two, the number was just about 5,000,000. At two and a half years (last June), the number was just over 12,000,000. And today -- three months later -- Yahoo! reports over 50,000,000 link-backs to our licenses. CC: Aims and Lessons So what problem was Creative Commons trying to solve? And from what in the past did we learn? Creative Commons took its idea — give away free copyright licenses — from the Free Software Movement. But the problem we aimed to solve was somewhat different. When Richard Stallman launched the Free Software Foundation just over 20 years ago, he was responding to something new in the world of software development. In his experience, software had been free, in the sense that the source code was freely accessible and could be freely modified. But by the early 1980s, this norm was changing. Increasingly, software was proprietary, meaning the source code was hidden, and users were not free to understand or modify that source code. Stallman thus launched his movement to build a buttress against this trend, by developing a free operating system within which the freedoms he had known could continue. The story with culture is somewhat different. We didn't begin with a world without proprietary culture. Instead, there has always been proprietary culture — meaning work protected by an exclusive right. And in my view at least, that's not a bad thing either. Artists need to eat. Authors, too. A system to secure rewards to the creative community is essential to inspiring at least some creative work. But for most of our history, the burdens imposed by copyright on other creators, and upon the culture generally, were slight. And there was a great deal of creative work that could happen free of the regulation of the law. Copyright was important to cultural development, but marginal. It regulated certain activities significantly, but left most of us free of copyright's control. All that began to change with the birth of digital technologies, and for a reason that no one ever fully thought through. If copyright regulates copies, then while a tiny portion of the uses of culture off the net involves making copies, every use of culture on the net begins by making a copy. In the physical world, if you read a book, that's an act unregulated by the law of copyright, because in the physical world, reading a book doesn't make a copy. On the Internet, the same act triggers the law of copyright, because to read a book in a digital world is always to make a copy. Thus, as the world moves online, many of the freedoms (in the sense of life left unregulated by the law of copyright) disappear. Every use of copyrighted content at least presumptively triggers a requirement of permission. The failure to secure permission places a cloud of uncertainty over the legality of the use. (The critical exception in the American tradition is fair use, which I'll talk about next week.) Now many don't care about clouds of uncertainty. Many just do what they want, and ignore the consequences (and not just on the Net). But there are some, and especially some important institutions like schools, universities, governments, and corporations that rightly hesitate in the face of that uncertainty. Some, like an increasing number of universities, would require express permission to use material found on the Internet in classrooms. Some, like an increasing number of corporations, would expressly ban employees from using material they find on the web in presentations. Thus just at the moment that Internet technologies explode the opportunities for collaborative creativity and the sharing of knowledge, uncertainty over permissions interferes with that collaboration. We at Creative Commons thought this was a kind of legal insanity — an insanity, that is, created by the law. Not because we believe people ought to be forced to share. But because we believe that many who make their work available on the Internet are happy to share. Or happy to share for some purposes, if not for others. Or eager that their work be spread broadly, regardless of the underlying rules of copyright. And these people, we thought, could use a simple way

However, the stored text is automatically in Unicode, so that the file is portable to other Unicode supporting platforms.

Select the Layouts tab, and you can add up to four different layouts from the list in the right- hand pane. After setting the preferences, you can cycle through the keyboard layouts for the active window by repeatedly clicking on the Keyboard Indicator applet. It also allows you to have separate layouts for each window. Of course, you will get meaningful results only if you have a Unicode Hindi font installed (should be available in Ubuntu), and if the application that you are typing in supports Unicode (try gedit).
