Re: [ubuntu-in] Configure the IP
I also have a similar problem to this... I cannot assign a static IP address to my ubuntu powered laptop when it is connected to the router/LAN via wifi. I require a static IP so I can configure NAT on my router and not change it s configuration every time the IP address changes. I have checked that this can be done in windows, so there is no reason why this can't be done in ubuntu as well.

Already i change the IP and DNS, for few days it working but not always. it just working with the Auto. Can i use the Terminal to do it? or if i want use the network connection ( default of Linux which it is in the Top-Toolbar) what is the right process..!?? Please give me the right process for both way// I assume you are using DHCP ? Then you can just do First, do $ ifconfig -a Then check the connection which you're using (should be eth* or wlan* - generally eth0 or wlan 0, but can be something else also) Next do $ sudo dhclient eth0 (I assume eth0 is the lan connection. It could be wlan0 etc) If you want to change the DNS server to some manual value, you need to edit /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/original . This is sort of tricky, if you use the computer from multiple places or use VPN etc. Need more info before suggesting how to do it.

Re: [ubuntu-in] Importing and editing Canon Raw (cr2) images in Linux / Ubuntu
Try Qtpfsgui (hope I got the name right) It is an application for HDR compositing of images... I think the latest version recognizes cr2 and can be used to convert to other formats Cheers, Anish Mangal On Tue, Apr 20, 2010 at 2:03 PM, K Ramnarayan ramnaraya...@gmail.com wrote: Hi There are some photography buffs amongst on this list so was wondering if you had any tips advice on how to edit / import raw images from Canon - the cr2 file extension in Ubuntu.

Re: [ubuntu-in] If not Ubuntu then what
Hi Staying on the topic of having complete control over h/w AND s/w for better solutions, interested folks may have a look at opencoreshttp://www.opencores.org/. It is an initiative to design open-source hardware. The community strength is nowhere near what it is behind any open-source distro but its picking up, though some good amount of work has been done. In earlier days (and to a large extent, even today) hardware design used to be exclusively proprietary due to astronomical capital costs involved, but the trend has changed with the advent of 'fab-less' companies, who basically design stuff and get it made by someone else. They are the ones who stand to gain the most out of such an initiative. As a great example AMD, Qualcomm and Broadcom are all fab-less (meaning no manufacturing capability)!

Before saying anything i want to put this on record. Ubuntu is one of the best distro's i have ever used. , its ease in installation, responsiveness to multitude of hardware, the incredibly large and varied repositories, the very decent derivatives (Mint, Ultimate etc) . The huge forum and support. Basically i like it very much Over the recent months there has been a lot of chatter about minor and maybe not so minor aspects. First there was the dropping and inclusion of different programmes (e.g. GIMP) not big things but when many small things add up they become to big. (OT) These changes may seem small, but they are really big ones. Especially the 'window buttons on the left' one. I really don't understand it, they shouldn't add such changes in an LTS release. If they would want to experiment, they can experiment in Lucid+1. Then there is this Ubuntu is not a democracy, Mark Shuttleworth Sounds crazy saying it like that but to read what he had to say check out Mark Shuttleworth: This is not a democracy http://www.webupd8.org/2010/03/ubuntu-is-not-democratic.html and some related discussions http://www.osnews.com/story/23039/Kicking_in_Open_Doors_Open_Source_Is_Not_a_Democracy and http://www.itworld.com/open-source/101641/open-source-not- democracy?source=smlynch Well, Ubuntu has become very big and that's all because of it's community. Not because of Canonical. There are people who spend nights contributing to Ubuntu, just for the sake of the community and Canonical is now completely ignoring them. In my opinion there should be some kind of open poll before making big changes that would affect the whole community, but no why will they do it, Ubuntu is not a democracy ya know :) Well thats what he meant. Kind off. The kernel team decides the kernel because they are the ones who work on it. No one else can vote for their decisions because they have the merit of packing the kernel. The design team contribute to design and no one outside their team decides upon the design because they spend nights contributing to it. That sounds like a professional way to manage things. On a personal note, I am completely OK with the buttons on the left. In fact I had them on the left even before Canonical decided to (my reason was because mac has it and mac windows.. stupid reason though ). Plus, now I am used to it and sometimes feel weird using the buttons on the right in MS Windows (I have the opposite problem). What I reason to myself is that: 1) Canonical's design is new, it does not imitate mac (mac has the opposite order) nor does it imitate windows. That is bad if you look at it in terms of user migration from windows to ubuntu. But people migrate to mac too from their windows and adapt well to it. So ubuntu has something unique. 2) Mark Shuttleworth said that the next Ubuntu will have something good on the right hand side. Right now there is the extra options to move the windows from one workspace to the other and all that. But hopefully they will get something good. I want a zeitgeist activity journal integrated there.
