Most fall under the category of > 'chelas' Once setup gnu/linux systems are quite boring u know. Spamassain knocks out a hundred spam mails from my vsnl pop mail (that is vsnl mails speciality allowing tons of spam). Clamav knocks out another hundred nematodes (actually pointless since those poor worms are quite harmless). The ocassional portscan is detected and yawn..... no blue screens, no illegal operations, no virus frenzies and now a days no hacked to death windoze is better than honey discussion on the list either. So as far as regular slow joe's usage is concerned gnu/linux simply works. It's really the setting up part that requires skill and support - not an everday task - my system was installed about 14 months ago. editing the source.list file and typing apt-get update;aptget upgrade is all that ive been doing for the past 14 months. the latest pakages for debian come from backports.org and a couple of other sites. As far as usage is concerned clicking mouse buttons hardly requires any training Well one 55++ yr old newbie to computers did require training on moving the mouse and took to GNU/Linux like a pro. Switch on and the browser opens onto some cricket site. Kmail opens up and downloads mails. Xmms starts playing some bhajans etc. etc. He wonders what are computer viruses and why everbody in his office are in such a state of terminal anxiety every few weeks. rgds jtd

Most fall under the category of 'chelas' (pardon the expression) like me. I get bored out of my skull during meets that focus only on programming issues. I would love to see some topics discussed that focus on everyday usage. That is an area where all can participate. vivek ---- Get Urchin 6 On Demand web analytics.

KDE's networking features
by Amish Munshi 02 Nov '04

02 Nov '04

Article on KDE's networking features at, http://osdir.com/Article2159.phtml KDE is, by design, a fully networked desktop. Network files are accessible as readily and easily as local files from most applications. This is accomplished through special protocol handlers built into KDE, known as I/O slaves. These handlers implement a specific network protocol such as HTTP, FTP, or IMAP, and transparently interact with applications when they try to open a URL that requires that protocol.

[OT] Saving Lives
by Rony Bill 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

Dear Luggers, This is off topic. The recent fire at Sion had 3 casualties. A woman and her child took refuge in a lift to escape from the fire and reach the ground floor. However, just at that time, the building's power was switched off for safety and the two got trapped inside, inhaled poisonous gases and expired. To prevent such tragedies from happenning, lift manufacturers could provide a mechanical crank inside the lift to let the occupants slowly bring the lift up or down to a safe floor. If the doors are the automatic type, then a mechanical arrangement to open the door in case of an emerrgency. As a safety measure, the door will open only when the lift has aligned with any available floor. If you know people in this profession, please pass on this message to them. Regards, Rony.

Lug-Meets
by Rony Bill 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

Dear Luggers, With due respect, the topics that are selected for LUG meetings are mostly programming oriented. Technically that would come under a linux programers meet. Linux users need not be programmers, but simple users who use Linux for their daily computing activities. To make the meets interensting for them too, we could have non-programming linux usage topics too. This is just an expression of my thoughts. Any offence to anyone is regretted. Thanks and regards, Rony.
