Holi Folk Song

Bala — Sat, 22 Mar 2008 14:43:16 +0000

This folk song is actually a ‘bhajan’ (devotional song)
composed by Mira Bai, the famous devotee of Lord Krishna.

Syama Piya More Rangade Chunariya
Syama piya more rangade chunariya
Aisi rangade ke ranga nahi chhute Dhobiya dhoye chahe yeh sari umaria
Lal na rangaun main, hari na rangaun Apane hi ranga mein rangade chunariya
Bina rangaye main to ghar nahi jaungi Beet hi jaye chahe yeh sari umariya
Jal se patala kaun hai Kaun bhumi se bhari Kaun agana se tej hai Kaun kajala se kari
Jala se patala jnana hai Aur pap bhumi se bhari Krodha agana se teja hai Aur ik kalana kajala se kari
Mira ke prabhu giridhara nagara Prabhu charanana mein Hari charanana mein Syama charanana mein lagi najaria

Should I use Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, or Edubuntu? What’s the difference?

Bala — Sat, 22 Mar 2008 14:25:01 +0000

Pyschocats has written very good blog for Ubnutu beginners to know the difference b/w Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu

Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu are all the same Linux distro using the same base, the same software repositories, and the same release cycle. They just have different artwork, different user interfaces (in most cases), and different default programs installed

Ubuntu uses a user interface (or desktop environment) called Gnome. Gnome is focused on simplicity and usability. Ubuntu includes a bunch of Gnome-native applications such as Rhythmbox (music player), Sound Juicer (CD player and ripper), Evolution (email client and calendar), and Gedit (text editor). You can find the full list of software packages in ubuntu-desktop here.

Kubuntu uses the K Desktop Environment (also known as KDE). KDE is focused on including a lot of point-and-click configuration options immediately available to end users. Kubuntu includes a bunch of KDE-native applications such as AmaroK (music player), K3B (CD burning), Konqueror (web browser and file manager), and Kopete (instant messenger). You can find the full list of software packages in kubuntu-desktop here.

Xubuntu uses the Xfce desktop environment, which is a lighter one than Gnome or KDE. In terms of its design principles, it has a bit of a balance-presenting in some ways more point-and-click configuration options than Gnome but also retaining some of the simplicity of Gnome. Its main appeal is its speed, though, and it’s ideal for systems with 128 to 256 MB of RAM. Both Ubuntu and Kubuntu can run on 256 MB of RAM, but they’re more ideal for 512 MB of RAM or more. Xfce includes Thunar (file manager), Thunderbird (email client), and Mousepad (text editor). You can find a full list of software packages in xubuntu-desktop here.

Q: My root password lost?; can’t manage existing database can anyone help me?
A: Solution is simple just follow the steps below:

Recover MYSQL Password
#/etc/init.d/mysql stop

Please wait until MySQL shuts down completely. Then run
#/usr/bin/mysqld_safe –skip-grant-tables –skip-networking &

then you will be able to login as root with no password.
#mysql -uroot mysql

In MySQL command line prompt issue the following command:
mysql>UPDATE user SET password=PASSWORD(”letmein”) WHERE user=”root”;
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

mysql>exit

kill all the mysql processes
#/etc/init.d/mysql stop

Start MySQL again
#/etc/init.d/mysql start

At this time your root password is reset to “letmein” and MySQL will now
know the privileges and you’ll be able to login with your new password:
mysql -uroot -pletmein mysql

Congratulations you have sucessfully changed your new password

How to Configure Netmeeting

Bala — Wed, 05 Mar 2008 08:55:34 +0000

Step 1: Set up Netmeeting application:

1) Start > Run > type in conf and click OK

2) Follow instructions for setup

3) During setup, ignore request for directory server, leave default setting

Step 2: Disable Windows firewall:

1) Start > Control Panel > Network Connections

2) On left hand side, in box click on “Change Windows Firewall Settings”

5) Turn the firewall off

9) You are now done. Launch the netmeeting application and test it out.

10) To share a file, you must first give your participants your IP address. You can find this by clicking (in the netmeeting application window) Help > About Netmeeting. Your IP address will be listed at the bottom of the window.

11) Then click on Tools > Sharing and choose which file you want to share… or share your entire desktop if you want to make all open apps visible. Not that only the one that you see on your screen at any given time will be visible on the participant screens.

12) Experiment… it is a good tool for sharing, whiteboarding, etc… (note, you will need to mute your PC audio when using netmeeting, as it will transmit and receive audio, which is not necessary because we will use a landline conference bridge for audio).
