Yes Unity is great and it takes some getting used to.
Just wanted to point out that the non-free stuff installed during
installation is not the same as ubuntu-restricted-extras. This will have to
be installed separately. If you are wondering what is the difference, it is
as such: ubuntu-restricted-extras has more packages (codecs etc.) than the
ones installed via the installation process.

Hello,
I tried out the Ubuntu 11.04 64 bit edition on my system and was amazed
at the new UI. It looks like a mix of Android, Apple and
Ubuntu-Netbook-Edition. The developers have thoughtfully eliminated the
horizontal bars and put the menu vertically on the left had side.
Nowadays with monitors short in height but stretched wide, there is
surplus space on the vertical sides. There is this new Libre-Office. I
wonder if there is some dispute with OOo? The Apple like feature is the
permanent menu bar that adapts into the open application's menu bar and
back after the application is closed. As time permits, I will install it
in my system.

hi,
there is a large demand for python/django programmers, and I am getting
constant requests for candidates. I had tried to interest some
institutes in training, but most of them are unprofessional and provide
mere theoretical knowledge. Companies that need django developers have
to spend too much time training their recruits. The recruits lack the
all round skills in development and deployment that are the hall mark of
a modern web programmer.
I have decided to offer training in a live environment which will
produce people who can 'hit the ground running'. The programme will be
flexible, tuned to the individual needs. This means that the course can
run from one month (minimum) up to 3 months. Again depending on the
trainee, it will be both on location and remote. The location is Ooty,
and accommodation will be provided/arranged.
As an introductory offer, the charge will be 25K - and a job is
guaranteed for anyone who passes.
Prerequisites - some knowledge of programming and web development. More
important, the ability to work hard and the desire to learn new things.
Please contact me off list.

Hi,
Have Anyone configured Reliance 3G USB Mobile Broadband Dongle on Ubuntu

added usbserial and options in /etc/modules and rebooted the laptop still it
does not get detected by NM (Network Manager). Have added usb-modeswitch and
usb-modeswitch-data. I have the latest modemmanager and NM and Tried all
options but works fine in Ubuntu Linux 10.10.
Any clue ?

If you have Ubuntu 11.04 64 bit and do not have vlc on it. then you can
download this 24MB package -
http://code.google.com/p/debbundle/downloads/detail?name=vlc.x86_64.OneClic…
and just give a one click, it will it install vlc on your system
So, how I have done it, Here it the full story..
Problem - How to install Software package on a Linux System when it do not
have Internet ?
I know there are multiple solution to this problem.. Here I am giving one
very solution which looks perfect to solve the problem
you can down the script from http://code.google.com/p/debbundle/
What this little script will do..
For example, your system do not have vlc , then you can go to other system
which has Internet and then run the script .
Script will produce VLC.i386.OneClickInstall ,
You can can carry this file to anywhere and then install it by just clicking
it. Let me repeat, Just by clicking it, neither you terminal , nor you need
any extra software to install it.
So enjoy it and give me feedback. ( narendra AT narendrasisodiya DOT com )

<http://blog.narendrasisodiya.com/2011/05/how-to-install-software-package-on…>
Script will only download the files which are needed on a given system. But
the OneClickInstall Bundles will created on a centralized manner on a
freshly installed Ubuntu/Debian.
What I am exactly doing ? I am basically reproducing the beauty of "D:
Drive" which almost every windows user has. For example when I was in BTech,
I never used Internet but Still I did many installation
and re-installation of Windows where everytime I use to go to D:\Software
folder to make few clicks to install all other software. {I was not aware of
GNU/Linux at my BTech. please excuse me}
There are still many many user exist who do not have Internet and this
solution will help them a lot.
Also, My intention is to create a 3GB bundle from this script which will
cover almost every daam COMMOM software for normal user.
I hope you got my intension behind this.
Last year , I did the same, instead of creating this 3GB oneclickbundle, I
create "iso" with lots of customizations. Its called SchoolOS. those who
used it, just loved it. But unfortunate people took it as different OS and
hesitated to installed SchoolOS.
There is no momentum in SchoolOS project from last 4 months.
I hope, people will love this solution. I am trying to solve all common
problem which normal user face. For example, In SchoolOS , I compiled list
of command-line operations which normal user do, and then I created nautilus
script to do same thing from GUI..
Well this solution is not for user who can run command line "apt-get install
...", its for them who want to install it using just ONE CLICK.
There will not be any dependency problem
WHY - ?
because I am creating these bundles on freshly installed system. I am no
going to Install anything on this system. So I am minimum number of packages
on my system which you will be having.
Let me repeat again.
Step 1) Install Ubuntu
Step 2) Click on this 3GB bundle and this will install almost all software
which you ( office guy, programmer, engineer, students) need. I might
create smaller package something like 600MB and so too.
Checkout the LOG for VLC - http://gist.github.com/958318
Someone with higher bandwidth can also use it. Nothing wrong it 2 step
process. you will eventually create some software bundle which might be
useful to you in future or different machine..
For a sample, Try installing one click installation of VLC -
http://code.google.com/p/debbundle/downloads/detail?name=vlc.x86_64.OneClic…
