hi guys

 

just to let you know that the site has 2 new additions in case you didnt notice :)

 

the linux-noob.com logo rotates every hour on the hour to one of 8 random logos

the favicon.ico also does the same (one of 10)

 

just to add a bit of newness to the place

 

thanks to z0ny and znx for their help with the script to do it

go downlaod jre-1_5_0_04-linux-i586.bin from Sun ; just google jre-1_5_0_04-linux-i586.bin & you will get the result with the download center-downlod from javashoplm.sun.com.

 

scroll down & Required: You must accept the license agreement to download the product.

 

choose the .bin file

 

choose the Linux Platform -& choose the Linux self-extracting file jre-1_5_0_04-linux-i586.bin save it to your /home/* for the moment.

 

 

 

as root su -

 

cd /home

 

&

 

mv * where your bin is /opt

 

hit enter & cd /opt

 

chmod +x *-linux-i586.bin ( if you just type chmod +x (space) jre- with tab you will get the rest)

(try to use the tab instead of typing out every single letter).

 

 

Hit enter. Type:

 

./*.bin (or ./jre(tab) & it will give you the rest

 

 

Hit enter. Hold the enter key down until the yes/no line appears to allow you to agree to the license agreement. Type "yes" and hit enter. Wait for the installation to complete.

ln -s /opt/jre1.5.0_04/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so

 

Hit enter. Close the terminal. Reboot your machine and restart Firefox to enable the java plugin. You could go to [/url][url=http://www.dslreports.com/stest?loc=97]http://www.dslreports.com/stest?loc=97 and click the start button to test your java plugin installation.

 

 

hope it was clear enough,just use your imagination & try to show the path,take em by the hand & it should be installed.

Debian supports more hardware out-of-the-box than M$.

 

You have to install a few packages (easy), run a command or 2 and you're in business

 

You already have a movie/music player installed called Totem (Movie Player) lot

hi @ all,

 

did you notice any change recently here on the forums ?

 

one person did (znx) and he noticed that the forums now support a favicon.ico in the url.

 

well, that is, i was tired of reading the error_logs complaining about not finding same, so i put one in.

 

anyway, the site is now running twice on two different ips, one is running fcr1 (the laptop) and the other is running fcr4 (desktop).

 

have you notice any changes ? any difference in speed ?

 

vote above

 

cheers

Have you wanted to easily mount a Samba share without using the command line? Sacrilege, I know, but the following how-to might be helpful. It does make assumptions that you have a working Samba or Windows server on your local network and that you have a valid username and password for that share. Also, be sure you have administrative rights on your local computer.

 

Enjoy!

hi guys

 

i installed fedora core release 4 on this box (the one that is currently running linux-noob.com) and during the installation i disabled the 2nd hard disc in the bios as the first time round anaconda crapped out when i had both /dev/hda and /dev/hdb selected....

 

anyway, the installation is done and seems to be working nicely (the websites running on it now !) but i'm still unsure about the 2nd hdd and my hard disc usage/space

 

basically there are two 40 gig hdd's, and i would expect df -h to report between 70 and 80 gb of storage... but not so. See below

the entire site has been upgraded which involved a fresh install of fedora core release 4 on a different machine, an old P3 550mhz, 384mb ram, 2x40gig hd's

 

i then compiled mysql/apache and php and ported the site over via the latest backup file from yesterday.

 

all seems to be ok, if you notice anything unusual let me know

 

cheers
