 Hi,
 
 I want to know how to choose input methods in Firefox and
 Thunderbird. None of the text components are aware of input methods
 and didn't offer any context menu to chose input methods.
 
 So in order to type in Hindi, I've to use some input method enabled
 window, such as Run As dialog box of KDE.
 
 So any alternatives or hacks exists, to directly type in Hindi in
 Firefox and Thunderbird ? Hmmm...
 
use this,
http://indicime.mozdev.org/
it gives a toolbar to select languages  keyb layouts for input.

this may also interest you.
http://padma.mozdev.org
shows many non-unicode indic websites on firefox.

[ilugd] Blackberry push with Linux server

2006-04-07 Thread Yashpal Nagar
Hi list,

I know BB (Blackberry) works on standard POP/IMAP protocols. where 
user's email client need to check his/her email periodically.
I just want to is there any way to make linux based email servers 
(postfix, sendmail,qmail etc..) to work with BB push in which you need 
not to check your account instead BB push technology itself locates you 
and pushes the alerts/emails to you.

Regards,
Yash

Re: [ilugd] Choosing input methods in Firefox and Thunderbird.

Hi Guntupalli Karunakar,

A good tool for typing in Indic scripts. But, I've a problem using it, the 
transliteration style (or standard) used by this IME is bit different from the 
style used in indic input methods provided with SCIM or IIIMF.

The way this input method hooks into the Firefox input subsystem is via a 
attaching a handler for keyPress event. And then it translates all the key 
events. So, what if someone provides a native extension X which captures all 
keypress events and forwards it to the desired native input method, and the 
desired native input method then translate that keycode and returns it back to 
the plugin X. The plugin X then will then forward the translated text to the 
Firefox text component. And plus it can also provide a input method selection 
menu in context menus of text component.

BTW, I'm on Firefox 1.0.4 (not 1.5), so this might already be implemented in 
1.5. I don't know about that.

[ilugd] Fwd: [cslug] Fwd: Fwd: [Fsf-friends] Ankit Fadia : The real picture

 Subject: [Fsf-friends] Ankit Fadia : The real picture
 To: Fsf-friends@mm.gnu.org.in



 Yesterday (03-04-2006)I attended a seminar by a so-called Hacking Guru
 Ankit Fadia, at DAVV, Indore (MP) auditorium. I just want to share my
 feelings with you.

 The Seminar was a complete failure, though it was attended by about well
 over 100 people, but was a complete disaster.

 The very first thing by which I was offended badly was using the sacred word
 Hacking to demonstrate something we, the hackers, call cracking. The
 seminar topic was Ethical Hacking, now I want to ask Mr Fadia, what is
 unethical about hacking ? Hacking is very positive word and there in no need
 to put Ethical before it. By the way his seminar topic should be Ethical
 Cracking.

 If you really want to become a hacker, please read an article by a real
 hacker, Eric Steven Raymond (ESR). The man who changed the history by
 writing a paper Cathedral and Bazaar. please read the article here :
 http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/hacker-howto.html 
 http://www.catb.org/%7Eesr/faqs/hacker-howto.html

 The people who can not differentiate between hacking and cracking, should
 read an article by the GOD of hackers Richad M Stallman (RMS), the man who
 started GNU movement all by himself. The gcc (compiler), gdb (debugger),
 emacs (editor) are some of the most popular softwares in the world written
 by him. Please read the article here :
 http://www.outpost9.com/reference/jargon/jargon_69.html

 The things Fadia demonstrated were ancient techniques used by crackers to
 break into some one's machine. Now a days even 10 year olds can download
 these tools from Internet to control others'  machines. Can we call them
 hackers ??  If he calls it hacking, I doubt if he understands the term even
 Cracking, leave hacking altogether. This childish behavior is called
 script kiddie.

 IP spoofing, SQL Injection, password cracking softwares, Trojan horse
 programs, these are the tools of cyber criminals. So I wonder what is the
 significance of the term Ethical here ??

 In the entire session I kept waiting for some program or utility, written by
 himself. But I don't thing he had something like this to share with
 audience. The entire session was demonstration of third party utilities, and
 the saddest thing was no  mention of the name of any author of any utility.
 He didn't care to give some credits to the utility developers. What a shame
 !!!

 Mr Fadia, I real hacker always respect the creativity of others, and before
 using their work proper credits are given, this is the hacker's attitude.
 It's not like that, you download something from Internet, use it and forget
 the person, who made it. That's pretty mean.

 Second most annoying thing was that he calls himself a hacker and was
 using a Windows XP operating system 

 I have been in to computers for the past 10 years and I never come across
 any real hacker who uses Windows. I met Brian(Apache creator), Andy Cleen,
 Alon cox, Rusty (all networking gods), RMS (the GOD himself) but all of them
 were using some or other form of Unix or Linux.

 Come on, MR Fadia, Windows is the worst OS in the world, full of security
 holes, so what is the point to break into a  Windows machine  What do
 you want to prove 

 He only once mentioned Linux, just to tell how you can use it's live CD to
 boot a Windows machine and cracke the password.

 Actually, before attending the seminar, I Googled a lot about Fadia and his
 work. But what I could find was self acclaiming statement by Fadia about
 himself and his future and just crap, crap and crap by technology illiterate
 Indian news papers' reports.

 I just want to share my findings with you.

 Vulnerabilities patches by Fadia  = 0 (He may know how to break
 in, but doesn't know how to fix up)
 Bugtraq id's by Fadia  = 0
 Hacking / Security tool by fadia   = 0 (He simply Goolge and
 download the tools from Internet, that's not cracking. Actual cracker
is the
 programmer, but Fadia never ever gives due credits. Now that's not hacking,
 that's
stealing)
 Any open source software by Fadia =0 (He is afraid of suggesting
 Linux to people, 'coz it's secure)
 Any Linux or Windows software security patch   = 0
 Any recommendation or recognition by Real Hacker Community   = 0 (They
 laugh at him. He is just a kid)
 Software / Cryptography patents by Fadia= 0
 Algorithms by Fadia   = 0
 Any official citation by FBI/CIA/CBI for Fadia   = 0 (They don't even
 bother about any explanation)
 Any confirmation of his self-claims  = 0
