Iam too for a ilug-mangalore t-shirt. How about others ?
If many of us are ready for the idea, then we can start with
logo design and looking at the logistics.

Talking about logistics, even if you designed a logo in inkscape is
there a format in which we can give it to our "pirate" corel draw dtp
people. T shirt logo can be exported as jpeg no problems.

I finally managed to install and run xvidcap  (xvidcap-1.1.3-p7) on SUSE 10, will keep this post updated once I finish the man pages and make the first movie. On first impression the GUI looks more difficult than the command line options :-P

Hi ,
     I want to let U let know that there is one more solution for this
problem ....If one has Mozilla ,then try http://www27.meebo.com/.  U
need not have to install any software or any other stuff just logon
and use it... It is simple and secure as it uses the encryption
methods. The only draw back found in this way is One cannot store the
Chat history and send smily..

Thanks

why don't you just give them your credit card number as well while
you're at it?  you seem to trust them enough with your usernames and

LFY, DELHI AND LINUX ASIA... SEEKING COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT:
LINUXForYou editor Rahul Chopra <rahul@...> reminds us
of the forthcoming LinuxAsia event in Delhi. Rahul writes:

           This email is w.r.t. LinuxAsia, and to seek your help
           in building the community side to it.  LinuxAsia has
           managed to become the biggest B2B event, where top
           industry players meet customers at a national level. I
           am tempted to try and see if we can help drive the
           community push further in Delhi through LinuxAsia.

We have planned the following community initiatives for
LinuxAsia 2006:

* The Dot.Org mela where [free software and] open source
   projects will be provided a FREE booth space subject to
   registration and approval by the technical committee.

* The [GNU]Linux Newbie sessions where new comers sit through a
   one hour session, which is presented by the [GNU]Linux/[FL]OSS
   community takes them through a series of presentations, which
   would help the newbies to understand [free software and] open
   source and Linux better, and the benefits associated. We need
   good speakers who WANT TO TAKE LINUX TO THE MASSES, and can do
   a good job at that.

* Free LUG booths where we want more and more LUGs to be
   represented at Delhi to tell the world that India rocks when
   it comes to [GNU]Linux/[FL]OSS.

MORE ABOUT LINUX ASIA: You can submit your conference
proposal for LinuxAsia 2006 till January 8, 2006. Deadlines
for speakers as below:

* January 8, 2006: Proposal deadline
* January 15, 2006: Notification of acceptance to speakers
* January 22, 2006: Final presentation materials due
* February 8, 2006: LinuxAsia 2006 Conference begins

Submit your conference proposal at http://www.linuxasia.net/speakers

FSF-INDIA DIRECTOR Dr G Nagarjuna <nagarjun@...> of
the Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education at the TIFR in
Mumbai, announces that the FSF is entering 2006 with a very
important task, drafting GPLv-3. GPL stands for the General Public
License, also known as the GNU/GPL.

         GPLv-2 was released in 1991, and it is the most widely
         used free software license.  During the course of time,
         the computing environments are transforming,
         particularly with the entrance of webservices and
         embedded devices.  In the context of these changes, it
         is possible that user's freedom may not be preserved.

FSF says it is "committed to protect the software freedom even
under the transformed conditions in future." A draft of the
GPL-v3 will be released during the First International Public
GPL-v3 launch conference to be held at the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology (MIT) on January 16 and 17, 2006. Dr
Nagarjuna is expected to represent FSF India.

He writes: "I invite the  free software community in India to
actively participate in shaping the new license.  If you would
like to share any specific inputs let us discuss them here in
the list. You may also want to send me your thoughts directly.
Wishing you all a success in protecting software freedom."

NepaLinux IS OUT: It was released on December 22, 2005.
NepaLinux is a Debian and Morphix based GNU/Linux distribution
focused for Desktop usage in Nepali language computing. It
contains applications for Desktop users like: OpenOffice.org,
Nepali Gnome Desktop, Nepali input systems etc.

http://www.nepalinux.org/

It is drawing some early praise too. Our Greek friend Simos
Xenitellis <simos.lists@...> writes: "Congratulations to
everyone contributed in the work! I tried out the Live CD and I
must say I am really impressed with the level of integration and
completeness of localisation. You use a consistent colour theme
through out the LiveCD which means you went to great efforts to
update the icons/backgrouns/logos/etc. Also, every single
message in the menus was localised to Nepali; I had trouble to
navigate on the system :) I took some screenshots in PNG format
http://planet.hellug.gr/misc/nepalinux.png
http://planet.hellug.gr/misc/nepalinux-ooo.png "

Madan Puraskar Pustakalaya (MPP) is the principal archive of
books and periodicals in the Nepali language, the mother tongue
(or lingua franca) of a little over 30 million people of South
Asia. It manages the largest archive in the Nepali language, and
supports the use of Nepali for the social, economic and cultural
advancement of all Nepali. Since January 2004, Madan Puraskar
Pustakalaya undertook the Nepal component of the 30-month long
PAN Localization Project (www.PANL10n.net), a multi-nation
localization project being conducted in Afghanistan, Bangladesh,
Bhutan, Cambodia, Laos, Nepal, and Sri Lanka, with the support
of International Development and Research Center (IDRC), Canada.
This project includes a Nepali GNU/Linux distribution
'NepaLinux' comprising of localized GNOME, OpenOffice.org,
Mozilla suite, and other utilities that include Nepali
Spellchecker, Thesaurus, Nepali Unicode support, etc. This
distribution can be used in Nepali as well in English
environment. Though NepaLinux is basically a live CD it can also
be installed in the computer. The work for the installation
process has been facilitated through the European Commission
supported Bhasha Sanchar Project -- http://www.bhashasanchar.org
-- which is led by the Open University (UK).

NepaLinux is a Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS), in
which the source code is open and the users have the freedom to
use, study, modify according to one's needs and redistribute it.
NepaLinux, being a Free/Open Source Software, does not charge
for its software unlike proprietary software, which cost a lot
and also do not allow the users to study, modify, or
redistribute.

Some of the packages included in NepaLinux are Linux Kernel
2.6.12, Gnome 2.10 Desktop Environment, OpenOffice.org 2.0, Gimp
Graphics Editor, IRC Client, Gaim Messenging Tool, Development
Tools (Includes C and C++), Mozilla Suite, GnomeBaker CD/DVD
Burning Utility, Firewall Security, Antivirus, Rootkit and
Sniffer Detection Tool, Image Viewers, Games, etc.

SEARCHING FOR A MEET VENUE? HOW ABOUT DOING IT ONLINE, VIA IRC?
This idea has been doing the rounds on LUGs, FSUGs and GLUGs
across India. It comes from Chennai-based software engineer
Shakthi Kannan <cyborg4k@...> who moots having an
all-India online meet via IRC. Date: Jan 1, 2006. Time 1500 hrs
IST. Channel #gnu-india on irc.freenode.net

Sorry about the short (no?) notice from FN's side. But just
sharing this idea to be taken up in future. Shakthi says: "No
agenda as such. The idea is to get to meet folks from different
FSUGs/GLUGs, get to know what FSUGs/GLUGs have been and are
working on, free software ideas/suggestions/plans/activities for
2006." Useful concept. It was inspired, Shakthi says, after he
heard of Luggers in Mumbai discuss where the next meet be held.

AN EXPAT-HINDU PRIEST-DEBIAN GEEK'S VIEW: Jaldhar H. Vyas
<jaldhar@...> who has the unusual combination of Hindu
priest and Debian geek, is based in the US, and part of La Salle
Debain - http://www.braincells.com/debian/

A great guy to meet with, this 34-year-old was in Bangalore
recently. On going back, Vyas reported that one of the problems
GNU/Linux users in countries like India face is low bandwidth.
Therefore, he argued, a distribution on CD or DVD is preferred
over large network installations or updates. He has found a
sponsor and is looking for a 1-DVD version of the Debian system.

He wrote to FN'sEyeOnGNULinux: "This is for distribution with
the Linux For You Magazine.  So 1 DVD is a must. However if you
want to also distribute DVDs I encourage you wholeheartedly. My
ultimate goal is that no one interested in Debian should be
prevented from trying it due to a lack of access."

recently been taking an interest in what we have been calling
‘convergence’: the ways in which people are resisting the push
for monopoly rights over information in different sectors. In
this time of unprecendented centralisation of power and control,
resistance is building on many fronts. We couldn’t help
wondering if our various struggles might be more effective if we
found some common ground. http://www.grain.org/convergence/

ONE COMMENT ON FLOSS AND EDUCATION: "Most distributions contain
simple games. But only a few contain programs that are really
good for use with young kids (see the following section). SuSE
Linux has probably the widest selection of games and educational
software. Mandrake is also fairly good, closely followed by
Debian. But Red Hat tends to be the worst of all the major
distributions as it concentrates on being a more technical Linux
system rather than a user-friendly desktop system. Of all the
distributions I've tried."

A friend from Redhat replies: "We are aware of this and are
working on alternatives. We are also working on trimming down
the OS so that it can run on older hardware."

against the Bangalore One project's alleged irregularities
has been admitted by the Karnataka High Court, according to a
post from the eGov INDIA <egovindia@...> mailing list.
This Dec 17, 2005 post said what had been challenged was "the
legality of prescribing Microsoft technology which is
proprietary and costed when [Free/Libre and] Open Source
Software was available free. The MoU entered into between the
Government of Karnataka and Microsoft had been challenged in
the Writ Petition." See also:

FREE SOFTWARE ON THE SCREEN: V. Sasi Kumar
<sasi.fsf@...> explains how bridges are being built
between FLOSS and film-makers: "On December 15, we did a
short demonstration of Free Software related to media at the
International Film Festival of Kerala. We showed Blender,
Audacity, Kino, Adore, etc., although we could not really
demonstrate all features of the applications since we did not
have anyone who was experienced in using them. However,
Blender and Adore attracted some attention and a few
professionals talked to us after the demo. I understand that
a couple of other people collected our contact details from
the Kerala State Chalachitra Academy (organisers of the
Festival) later. We had put up a few posters at the major
venue (Kairali-Sree theatre complex) earlier. IFFK is
considered as one of the top ten Film Festivals in the world,
and we are happy that we could get an entry there. We hope to
plan and conduct similar demonstrations in the coming years.
A report on the demo with a couple of photographs will be put
up on our web page soon."

Hi all,
After the last update of my SUSE 10 my laptop battery level indicator
is working. I can now say that the ACER Aspire 5002 NWLMI works
properly with SUSE 10, barring the fact that it uses the windows

Hey,

I've been trying to install debian and two times have
messed it up badly. The first time my video card did
not get detected properly, and the second time gdm
crashed.

Can somebody give instructions on the installation
procedure, such as how do i select the packages at
install time, and how do i use apt once i have
installed the system. Also another problem i am having
is i cannot have screen resolution more than 800*600
(and mind you this is a 17" monitor!).

GOOGLE MAY NOT GO SIMPUTER WAY

Venkatesh Ganesh
Mumbai, January 4

GOOGLE's ENTRY into the sub-Rs 10,000 PC market has rattled the cage of
existing players. But the search-engine giant's entry into the hardware
sector in India with a thin-client model (a PC with no hard disk and
computing) may not be a walkover.

HT was the first to report on December 15, 2005 about the Google's plans
to enter the Indian market with thin-client model.

Early entrants like the Simputer and other low-cost PCs are being still
viewed skeptically. Globally too, thin-clients have managed to make only
small inroads.

But the real fight is for a different space. Google appears to be
looking to dethrone Microsoft from its desktop throne.

"Thin clients have been viewed in a cautious manner primarily due to the
price factor. But with Google entering the fray at such an attractive
price point, things might change," says Nitin Mukadam, an e-commerce
consultant.

The advantage with thin clients is that the storage happens in a central
server. For example, all data and applications (like word processors,
spreadsheets, etc) are hosted in a central server. This solves a lot of
problems right from storage to viruses.

Also, with bandwidth prices coming down, the commercial viability of a
thin-client device is now more feasible. Then, therere are issues with
regards to Random Access Memory (RAM) that can run with even small
memory space.

Industry analysts opine that Google has a rough road ahead. "Delivering
complete functionality in a thin-client is most challenging," Sameer
Kochhar CEO of Skotch told the Hindustan Times.

Translated, it would imply that since Windows is the pre-dominant
operating system, operating on non-Windows system would take some
getting used to (Google would bundle Linux-based applications).

Sanjeev Sharma, managing director, Fujusan Technologies, an Indian
representative of Fujitsu, the Japanese IT and communication solution
provider, feels that the acceptance of a device of this kind will be
predominantly in the small office-home office.(ENDS)

Debian is such a beauty, one will realise only after using it for
sometime. I am happy with etch.

Thanks to input from you guys, I assembled another computer for my
clinic. It is ASRock K8 Upgrade VM800 motherboard with Sempron 2600+
processor and 256 MB RAM. Used mercury cabinet. It is great. No problems
in installing Debian Etch. Working perfectly.

Venkat did you get a chance to talk to Umesh Mallya ? I think LK

Yeah, I spoke with him.
But now we cant have the meeting there as he is not convinced about our motives =-O .
So, I think we can have it there gradually down the line. (Maybe after two more meetings in IBM ACE). :-\
