[OT][Announcement] web3.0 mailing list
by Arulalan T 02 Aug '10

02 Aug '10

Dear All, Greetings .!. Do you have awareness about web3.0 ? The Semantic Web is a web of data. There is lots of data we all use every day, and it is not part of the web. I can see my bank statements on the web, and my photographs, and I can see my appointments in a calendar. But can I see my photos in a calendar to see what I was doing when I took them? Can I see bank statement lines in a calendar? Why not? Because we don't have a web of data. Because data is controlled by applications, and each application keeps it to itself. Humans are capable of using the Web to carry out tasks such as finding the Irish word for "directory", reserving a library book, and searching for a low price for a DVD. However, one computer cannot accomplish all of these tasks without human direction, because web pages are designed to be read by people, not machines. The semantic web is a vision of information that is understandable by computers, so computers can perform more of the tedious work involved in finding, combining, and acting upon information on the web. We are going to make web3.0 with the basics of semantic web. Let us discuss about web3.0 in this mailing list. Welcomes you to real data understandable by computer as data not as text ! - To join in the web3 mailing list, subscribe here http://www.freelists.org/list/web3 What is the Semantic Web? Where Web 2.0 is focused on people, the Semantic Web is focused on machines. The Web requires a human operator, using computer systems to perform the tasks required to find, search and aggregate its information. It's impossible for a computer to do these tasks without human guidance because Web pages are specifically designed for human readers. The Semantic Web is a project that aims to change that by presenting Web page data in such a way that it is understood by computers, enabling machines to do the searching, aggregating and combining of the Web's information — without a human operator. :-) More info about semantic web : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_Web http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/ http://www.webopedia.com/DidYouKnow/Internet/2007/Semantic_Web.asp Thank you. -- Regards, Arulalan.T Kanchi Linux User Group Rocks ! http://kanchilug.wordpress.com My Experiments In Linux are here http://tuxcoder.wordpress.com One Day One Cmd via sms http://1day1cmd.wordpress.com

Spaceman talks about tribes (and gets interesting responses)
by steve 02 Aug '10

02 Aug '10

Hi, In context of a couple of mails I sent earlier this week, including the one about GNOME contributions by a certain distro, I thought yesterday's blog post by Mark Shuttleworth is interesting. More interesting are the responses he gets: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/439 This of course, was in response to GergDeK's(*) post: http://gregdekspeaks.wordpress.com/2010/07/29/red-hat-16-canonical-1/ Of course, having to defend oneself by words rather than work in meritocracy based FOSS is ...ahem ...sad. Read all the comments to get a fair idea. cheers, - steve (*) incidentally, calling people like GregDek, who just point out uncomfortable facts, 'The Gregs' is not considered as generalization by spaceman. -- random spiel: http://lonetwin.net/ what i'm stumbling into: http://lonetwin.stumbleupon.com/

Since we were discussing this sometime ago, I'm returning to it. People mentioned we haven't had a good linux conference / event for a long time in Mumbai. I can arrange lecture halls / rooms and computer labs in my college [MGM College Of Engineering And Technology, location: http://is.gd/dUPzZ ] on the 8th / 9th of October (or some other Saturday/Sunday before that) What I'll need is support from you in terms of planning and arranging the event. If any of you are willing to put some effort into this, please let me know. Surya Sharma

Ubuntu 10.04 installation on Acer 5740 Core i5 and 3 GB RAM
by Rony Bill 01 Aug '10

01 Aug '10

Hello, Yesterday I got a new Acer 5740 with core i5, 3 GB RAM, 320 GB HDD and all the regular things. It was the linux model. Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit was installed on it. The live CD itself showed all devices working, including wireless. There was one bug during live session. Every time the wireless was connected, the touch pad would go dead. This problem did not appear post installation. The devices working are... Display .... gives full 1366 x 768 resolution. Sound .... After increasing levels and un-muting (maybe) it plays with decent Acer type sound levels. Touch pad ... Works fine. Bluetooth .... Linked with my mobile. Did not try any transfers. Wireless .... Works like butter. Used it in the live session itself for installation. Sound up / down .... Works from the dedicated keys. Brightness up /down does NOT work inspite of adding acpi_osi="Linux" to the grub parameters. Camera.....The gnome package camerama does not detect the video device but cheese does it flawlessly giving bright, crisp and colourfull images. Available in apt. camerama out, cheese in. Bluetooth and Wireless on / off buttons work. ubuntu-restricted-extras installs the non-free stuff including flash player for firefox. Remember.... it is the 64 bit OS. One bug that exists is that when changing desktop backgrounds, after selecting a second or third image choice, the machine freezes and has to be forced shut down. So I set my image once and lay off. Overall a 'works out of the box' experience. -- Regards, Rony. GNU/Linux No Viruses No Spyware Only Freedom.

My Trusty Dell Latitude D820 works perfect since Ubuntu 8.04. I don't meddle with a lot of compiling or change a lot of system settings though. The only issue was multi-monitor setup. (Had no internet and needed to connect to a projector. No go) And the Tata Indicom has its own mind on when to work, though this has nothing to do with Dell, and I know there's a script / fix for the Tata Photon around.

[OT] mailing list etiquette and reasoning
by Revant Nandgaonkar 29 Jul '10

29 Jul '10

My question is, how to avoid message recycling on gmail? or for a newbie what (not) to do to not recycle? Why bottom posting? My reasoning; some years ago google search for "linux" returned with mailing lists archives. reading the replies helped me a lot, if the mailing list etiquettes were followed on list it became easier to understand the progression of a problem from identification to the solution. even with outputs pasted in posts. This is not the case today and search strings land me up to some forum where quoting is automatically arranged. Why top posting is a problem? in case of newbie search string like "Installing internet with click9online mahim mumbai on linux" :-) searcher might land up in a confused system of posting and be more confused. I hope this thread will help us discuss everything about etiquettes here Note: for few times, unaware of the meaning, I top posted. I rarely post anyways, but now I always take effort to bottom post Mailing list guidelines: http://www.ilug-bom.org.in/pages/show/6

new initiatives in foss/oss
by Kenneth Gonsalves 29 Jul '10

29 Jul '10

hi, the KG group of companies - http://group.kgisl.com/ have a open source department - one of their initiatives is here: http://fossible.kgisl.com/ I happened to visit the group and find they have done extraordinary things using open source. For example there is PAC which does online processing storage and rendering of scans and xrays - they have implemented it in php/msyql and have several TB of data at the cost of about 5 lakhs whereas other hospitals have shelled out 1.2 crores for the same. College ERP, construction ERP and an enterprise wide ticket managing system tied to a zimbra server with things like right-click on a ticket to approve it, or right click on a person's name to send him an sms. The have used sms extensively - like staff can take attendence in class using their cellphones and sms the result to the server. There is an over reliance on php - but we are working to change that. Also they are yet to open source their applications - but that too is going to change. -- Regards Kenneth Gonsalves Senior Associate NRC-FOSS at AU-KBC

The -user option for the find command.
by Rony 26 Jul '10

26 Jul '10

Hello, I want to use the find command inside a directory which has user1, user2, user3 and user4 in the group to either look for files owned by user1 or user2 or user3 or find files not owned by user4. The -user option allows me only one name. I tried spaces, comas between user_names but the syntax is returned invalid. I can't find the not_owned option either. The -nouser option is for users not in the /etc/passwd file which is not my case. Checked out google too but cannot find any possibility for multi-user options in the same line. Even tried -user user1 -user user2 -user user3 together but not working. If I can write one 'find' line for all the users, I don't have to repeat it per user. Any tips or tricks? -- Regards, Rony.

any memo writing and summarising tool for a local intranet in linux
by Kussh Singh 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

Hi all, Am looking for a simple utility or opensource tool which can send memos from one computer to another or multiple others in the lan --the issued memos/correspondence can be grouped/searched or indexed/ summarised later with a regex tool. I would like to know if there are some opensource tools in the windows world so that future adoption of the same tools under linux becomes easier once migration takes place from windows to linux in an organisation/department The following are there AFAIK egoupware phpware something also crm ticketing systems etc or the mailman email server or chat utilities but your user experiences and recommendations would be more appreciated since real world experience is very valuable. Care to share a few words. Thanks Kussh
