 Hi! all

 Want to reduce power consumed by the linux box

[ilugd] [OT] Firefox Already Running Problem

2007-10-09 Thread Puneet Lakhina
Hi,
I get this problem when running firefox on windows. I have firefox already
open with some sites, now I have an eclipse type help system documentation
on my system which gets started when I execute a batch file, it selects a
port and starts a small webserver and then tries to open the page. Since
firefox is my default browser it tries to execute a command like
firefox.exe http://127.0.0.1:58743/help/index.jsp

This results in an error Firefox is already running but is not responding.
To open a new Window, you must close existing firefox process, or restart
your system.

Is there any way to get around this? Like opening this new page as a new Tab
or something.

I don't know how this would translate to Windows, but to open stuff in
a new tab, I would use,

$ iceweasel -remote 'openURL(http://google.com,new-tab)'

Or, if you just want to ignore an already running browser,

$ iceweasel -no-remote http://google.com # Not on Debian

Solved this by removing the MOZ_NO_REMOTE variable that I had set in my
environment variables while trying to run differet profiles. I had set this
to 1 earlier. Interestingly setting this to 0 also didnt work, had to remove
it to get what I wanted.

Re: [ilugd] [Gaming] Open source FPS games

2007-10-09 Thread Sandip Bhattacharya
 
 Any other thoughts on how one can use the open source for / in the Gaming
 Industry?
 

I think true multi-OS gaming will only start off when gaming engines are
truly dissociated from the actual game, and gaming engines are open
sourced(perhaps like the ioquake3 project Vikram talked about). Right
now, the big engine developers are selling their engines to other game
developers. If these engines were open sourced and ported to Linux,
games would flood the linux market.

Once the underlying technology is separated from the creative side,
gaming would probably be what it truly should be - all about the story.
And technology can be relentlessly worked upon with the same parallel
development from the open source and closed sourced industries.

Wootz, Nice to hear so many voices of Gamers in ILUGD.

Cs servers are usually run on nix servers through hamachi, But you
need a lot of Ram and a good graphics card to play cs on wine.

I have played AOE on wine some time back , But it doesn`t seems to
have the ability of playing multiplayer.

But UT and Quake rocks, You will get a better FPS than any winblows machine.

Planning to get my hands dirty on wow,


Would love to learn more from some more gamers.

How about a talk on LInux gaming in next ILUGD meet, Anybody Vikram,
Sahil, Yadu, Saleem ?

Cheers...
