Typically, such software support only the enterprise versions of Linux like RHEL and Novell SLES/SLED. They certify their software works on these platforms and their support is limited to those platforms. -- Arun Khan ___ 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/
Re: [ilugd] Problem installing DB2 on linux
Hi Rakesh, IBM DB2 is a closed-source product. You are working on an IBM project. IBM has recommended that you use an OS from the list. So, even if you manage to install the product on Fedora 9, and later if you run into a non-obvious problem, you will have to ask IBM for help. At that time they can refuse to help if your OS is not on their list. So its important to ask them, not us, for an opinion. If I was in your place, I would spend my time and effort in completing the project rather than working out why some variation of kernel/glibc/distro works or not with which version of which closed source product. Thats unless I was getting paid for for that. If you are keen to work inside Fedora 9, perhaps you could use a virtual machine (xen/kvm) running one of the OSs that IBM recommends. I am not a DB2 expert or an IBM employee so I can't guarantee that will be satisfactory. And by the way, why don't you try Fedora 11 ? Its rather neat :) Regards, -- Pai ___ 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] Advice needed: which notebook
Hi, I need your advice/ opinions/ rants/ whatever. I would like buy a notebook. I think even a netbook will do. Please let me know the most economical gadget given my needs which are Whats important: a. X should preferably not need closed-source hacks b. I'd prefer networking that just works with the standard kernel c. as long a battery life as possible - 3 hours at least, more if possible d. should not heat up e. lightweight f. cheap, cheap, cheap :D Whats NOT important: 1. Gobs of RAM: For that I'll use a separate server 2. Raw CPU horsepower/virtualization: For that I'll use a separate server 3. Large disk space: For that I'll use a separate server and NFS 4. Multimedia: For that I'll use a separate desktop Usually I work in Fedora/RHEL and am happy in terminal mode - mutt, irssi, elinks,vi. I use X largely for OpenOffice, Pidgin and Mozilla. The best thing about X is that I can open up so many xterms :) So, guys, what do you think will be good for me ?

Re: [ilugd] Advice needed: which notebook
I guess if you can wait, wait for Netbooks which will soon start shipping with NVIDIA Ion graphics processor. The ATOM + Ion combo just rocks. Offers HDMI and 1080p kind of resolution and affordably priced in $400 price ~ 20k - 25k.

Price was great, Rs.20,400/- inclusive of tax and 1 yr warranty. Ubuntu works out of the box, no tweaks needed for display or any other devices.

There's nothing different about Visual C++, its the same C++ that's used every where else. On Linux too, lots of different GUI libraries are available that you can use with C or C++. Some of them are Qt (C++) wxWidgets (C++) and GTK+ (C/C++). If you're looking for an interface builder, then you have Glade for GTK+ and Qt Creator for Qt. Infact, Qt ( pronounced as cute ) is a C++ API/Toolkit. It can do more than just GUI programming. A lot more. Qt Designer is a WYSIWIG tool to design the GUI. Qt Creator is an IDE for Qt programming and NOT an interface builder. It integrates, a Code Editor, Help/Documentation, Designer and more. You can choose to use it or not while programming with Qt. There is a lot of awesome documentation/examples to learn Qt right from basics to advanced stuff. Look around this website - http://qt.nokia.com . There is a lot of nice things to read and learn if you are interested. Btw, if you have ever used Google Earth, Skype or Motorola Rokr Phone. They are all developed using Qt. Cheers!
