Re: .screenrc entries to show always the windows in bottom

Re: want to use dnsmasq to resolve on localhost
Your configuration is correct. However, Im unable to understand what you exactly need. Remove 127.0.0.1 in /etc/resolv.conf from the server which has dnsmasq installed. ( i presume, it is 192.168.1.2 ). Add other dns like 8.8.8.8 to query other servers from internet. In all the other nodes ( the vm's ) - add 192.168.1.2 in the /etc/resolv.conf in the first line. Im not sure if this solved your problem. If not, please elaborate on what you exactly want on this configuration. Regards CS Shyam Sundar http://about.me/cs3 2011/2/11 Tapas Mishra mightydre...@gmail.com 2011/2/11 Tapas Mishra mightydre...@gmail.com I installed dnsmasq on my server but the query is still not being answered from localhost.

Re: [ubuntu-in] Alternate Offline Dictionary
Hi - There is one other alternate dictionary called arthahttp://artha.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Home . It is completely offline and based on Wordnet. If you have used Wordweb in Windows, you know Artha. For a list of features, see artha.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Features For installation - apt-get install artha -- Shyam 2010/4/18 K Ramnarayan ramnaraya...@gmail.com Hi Some time back i had posted on how to use the normal dictionary in offline mode (this is Dictionary 2.28.1) However there is another similar dictionary which seems, to me, to perform better (Xfce4 Dictionary 0.5.3) link http://goodies.xfce.org/projects/applications/xfce4-dict i think this will be available in some repos, because it came built into the ultimate edition 2.5 . The key diiferences that i can make out are a. Its easier to set up for offline (of course one needs to install all the offline dicts and the dict client and server - last two i think ) To set up , locally, go to preferences In the General - select Dictionary Server In Dictionary Server - type in 127.0.0.1 where the server is mentioned and finally in web service at the lower section there is a URL again type in 127.0.0.1. Ready to rock and roll B. the best and biggest difference is when one types a word to get the meaning it provides responses from all the available dictionarys , seems confusing but in the Gnome dict the meanings responses are provided from only the first dict and one must then navigate to each individual dict to get the appropriate response. hope its useful ram -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
Re: [ubuntu-in] Ubuntu and Archlinux Dual boot
Gentoo is a pain to maintain, and I would recommend it only if you have a use case that justifies it. I was an avid Gentoo user in college for three years, where I had the time to recompile the kernel and other packages to enable/disable features. This is of course solved if you use the genkernel script to generate the kernel in gentoo, but that for me that would defeat the purpose of using of a source only distro which allows customization and tweaks. Not entirely true. I work for a company where we have production servers running on Gentoo. Note that we have to maintain our own binary repo. But the performance is phenomenal. As far as support goes, the gentoo wiki used to be quite well maintained. Not sure if that's the case these days. Gentoo Wiki is maintained. IRC is friendly for support. Again, don't bother with Gentoo if you don't have time to invest. Not saying it's a bad distro, in fact it is quite the opposite if you have the time and energy to set it up to your liking.

Re: [ubuntu-in] LXC containers
Hi - At work, I'm using LXC containers. From what I understand, similar to Solaris zones and FreeBSD jails, each container is a process. Each container, like a VM, will run a full blown OS and has its own FS layout, NIC interfaces, etc. One can setup X, VNC, SSH and use it like a VM or run and isolate particular process. There is this interesting technical article in IBM developer workshttp://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-lxc-containers/, which outlines how to setup an LXC container and isolate stuff. -- Shyam 2010/4/26 Mallikarjun mallik.v.ar...@gmail.com Dear friends, I am trilled by the recent addition of LXC containers in the Linux Mainline Kernel. If you haven't heard of LXC Containers, it is similar to FreeBSD Jails. Since I am very immature in this technology, I would appriciate if you guys can help me configure LXC My need *To isolate a process using LXC Containers for Example Firefox.* Since web browser is the main security hole in any Operating system, I would like to isolate the process and run it in a sandbox..

Re: [ubuntu-in] LXC containers
Can I run processes like Firefox? Jails, Containers were traditionally created for running daemons. But that doesn't mean we can't run GUI Apps. All GUI apps need X server running with a display. GUI apps can be run either by logging on to that box using NX/VNC sessions or via X11 forwarding. There is this interesting technical article in IBM developer workshttp://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-lxc-containers/, which outlines how to setup an LXC container and isolate stuff. Sure I will try and post with problems, Of course I will have to face some of them :) Yeah.

Hi Ram - Im not the developer of Artha. My dear friend RM Sundaram, who is also in this mail trail is the actual developer. I'm just a wiki maintainer and tester of Artha. All thanks to Sundaram. -Shyam 2010/4/20 Ramnarayan.K ramnaraya...@gmail.com HI Shyam Sundar, I guessed correctly that you are the developer of Artha. First good show, irrespective of the minor bugs and missing features Artha is a good piece of work and greatly enhances productivity. It makes a lot of sense esp the misspelled words also being shown options - something that dict's don't do. Plus the various options - antonyms, similar words etc. ram On Tue, Apr 20, 2010 at 2:58 PM, Ramnarayan.K ramnaraya...@gmail.com wrote: Hi My replies below your mail On Tue, Apr 20, 2010 at 11:59 AM, C S Shyam Sundar csshyamsun...@gmail.com wrote: Ram - I'm still waiting for your answer on issues relating to artha ?

I cannot get artha to work - it was working till some time back, but seems like software that i installed directly from .deb files (in fact was going to mail that issue separately) so i could not re test the issues to get back with more details 2. So Reading my older mails i found these two issues only a. However if there is some kind developer soul it would be good if this artha could have more options to add other off line dictionaries , specially in multiple languages. (liek the dictionary app) The developer is indian (or of indian origin) which i think shows that indians are also now contributing back b. There are some problems with the hot key combination, and it does not work (as mentioned in the wiki) as planned. I guess over time these issues will hopefully get resolved - regarding a) one of the reasons i like the dictionary app is that i could add the hindi - english - english hindi dict for offline use. Am not able to do this with artha - hence the statement that it should be used in combination. regarding b. i cannot test that out as yet but onc ei do will report back with the results ram -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
