Quote:"Novell will soon release a major upgrade to its SUSE Enterprise Linux 10 line. The enhancements, announced at the company's annual BrainShare tradeshow, will be rolled out in the form of the operating system's first service pack: SP1. 'Service packs' usually consist of bug-patches, with few major changes. Like Microsoft with its SP2 patch to Windows XP, however, Novell has elected to make major improvements with this approach. SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 includes SLES and SLED."

Quote:lmost two years ago, the FSF started work on the first update of the GNU GPL in over a decade. A last-minute hitch, though, is keeping the license from appearing. According to Peter Brown, the FSF's executive director, "We continue to work on the details of the GPLv3 as it relates to the situation presented by the Novell and Microsoft deal. We are researching issues related to potential unintended consequences of the language we plan to adopt. As soon as we are satisfied with the results of our research we plan to bring forward the next draft."

I am runnning into problems with building a log for files (such as text files) to show when they were accessed (read updated or deleted); I have tried using Seedit [/url]http://seedit.sourceforge.net/, Snare [url=http://www.intersectalliance.com/projects/Snare/]http://www.intersectalliance.com/projects/Snare/ , and few other small utilities with no success on building the logs. Does anyone know of any other utilities that might help me with this or maybe a guide on what I might be doing wrong with Seedit or Snare, I believe my relative lack of knowledge concerning Linux is the main reason I am having such a hard time. Also I am trying to find a way to be alerted in case these files are accessed by someone who should not have access, I am not quite sure how to be alerted and I was hoping someone might have some suggestions. Any help is a appreciated, thank you.

Quote:Debian Etch moves ever closer, and Ian Murdock - the project's founder - has been interviewed about Debian's politics, its lack of strong leadership, and Ubuntu's ever-growing fame. He feels that Debian is too enveloped in process and politics, making it impossible for anybody to make big decisions, thereby hindering the pace of development. In addition, on his weblog Murdock has announced he is joining Sun.

So far the easiest way to add users is in a terminal and use the useradd -m login name then to set the password you use the passwd login name

Quote:Red Hat is planning a packaged Linux desktop solution that it hopes will push its Linux desktop offering to a far broader audience than exists for its current client solution. The move is designed in part to compete with Novell's SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 platform, which includes SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop, which were released in July 2006.

Linux.com have an article about editing video on Linux:

 

Quote:Shooting, editing, and producing video clips has been my passion for about 10 years. As a free software adept, I always tried to perform this process on Linux. This year I have finally found a set of tools that work for me. This article provides a brief tutorial on home video production. 

The process consists of several steps. First, you transfer the video source material to your Linux machine (video grabbing). Next, you edit the video, possibly mixing it with other video and audio material, and then render it into an output video file. If your goal is to upload a file to the Web or share it with your computer-savvy friends, then this is the end. Sometimes, however, you want to create a DVD suitable for conventional DVD players. In those cases the final step is authoring the DVD.
