Prošle noći sam izgubio 4h na debagovanje i modifikaciju koda koji je bio ispravan, ali nije radio – a ja sam jedva provalio o čemu se radi. Glavni krivac bio je Windows, a šta se desilo, kako sam otkrio o čemu se radi i kako sam problem rešio, saznaćete vrlo brzo
Naime, razrešenje ove misterije nije išlo gore pomenutim redosledom, pa upravo zato i reših da svoje iskustvo podelim sa ostatkom svet.
Pretprošle noći krenuh u realizaciju jednog mog mini WEB projekta. Kako su pitanju XHTML/CSS + PHP/MySQL tehnologije, krenuo sam sa radom u lokalu. Startovah LAMP pa se bacih na izradu baze i back panel-a. Zaključno sa sistemom za logovanje korisnika, privedoh rad kraju za taj dan (noć zapravo) pa sam sve do tada urađeno okačio na server. Probao sam skriptu i sve do tada implementirano je radilo bez ikakvih problema.

As many of you already know I'm experiencing some sort of hylafax/samba integration for a mixed Windows environment, this blog is for creating a PDF/PostScript printer easily, no matter of what you do with the printer; when you print on it you'll produce a Postscript/PDF document
requirements:
A samba server installation up and running

Every year we are hearing that "2000-something will be the year of Linux." But it does not happen. Asus announced it is better with Windows, Windows XP support is prolonged, Windows 7 is just around the corner (don't say it's crappy with netbooks, AMD announced dual-core Neo processors which will run Aero fine) and the companies will slowly adopt to Linux. Another competitor on the netbook market comes from Android and Acer announced Aspire One with Android in Q3 this year. Let's count the competitors: Android, XP, 7. It was nice news that Ubuntu Moblin was announced but what will be the competition like: AMD Dual Core Neo + Windows vs. the unfamiliar Ubuntu Moblin or Android (by the way, I really loved Moblin and find it really efficient in terms of netbook use).
Put everything in place and rethink: there are many reasons that Linux is not triumphing over Windows. Plus there is competition and in the arena of the netbooks, I cannot claim that this year or the next will be the year of Linux. Just set aside your passion for this lovely operating system of ours and try to rethink objectively: does the announcements in Computex will have any positive impact on Linux? Or is it just "Computex?"

On RDP protocol v5 and above you can open a remote windows session and open a single program only instead having the whole desktop up, it sounds like Metaframe but cheaper, I mostly use it from my Linux workstation for opening win programs on the server (business accounting apps or legacy win apps).
You need to have rdesktop installed in your system, each distro has its own names for this package
quick command from your linux desktop:

One of the interesting uses for Linux nowadays is to re-gain compatibility with older Software and Hardware. As far as software is concerned, this can be broadly divided into two groups: Applications and Entertainment (mainly Games).
Application Software

I started using Linux back in around 1998and have been rather stuck ever since. In the start it was har and i jumped back and forth between Linux and Windows but one day i decided to learn this "new" (to me) system so i through out Windows all together and started to use Linux 100%. Ever since that day i've been stuck. Most of the people in my surrounding are using systems like Windows and MacosX which makes it rather hard for me. I see Linux as such a natural choice that its hard to even perform everyday tasks such as bank-errands online using e-identification, sending office-documents to people (allways have to think about converting them to .doc or .pdf documents for them to be able to read them) and so on.
I am no guru on Linux really. I like to contribute with what i can, i use linux 100% and i like to learn. Its just fun to see how quickly Linux (even though some ignorant people say Linux cant do everything other popular systems can) can become the only natural choice.
