Subject: Who's Afraid of a Big, Bad Hacking Story?

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

It's been a cheerily good spring for FOSS fans here in the Linux blogosphere, so we may perhaps be forgiven for our utter shock and disbelief at the affront recently committed against us by a certain brick-and-mortar purveyor of books and magazines. Barnes & Noble yanked the very excellent Linux Format magazine from its U.S. shelves -- apparently because of a cover story on the topic of "hacking."

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

This tutorial describes how you can install Apache2 with mod_fcgid and PHP5 on Ubuntu 11.10. mod_fcgid is a compatible alternative to the older mod_fastcgi. It lets you execute PHP scripts with the permissions of their owners instead of the Apache user.

Subject: Updating Chakra Archimedes

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

Unlike other Linux distributions that feature a graphical package manager, Chakra’s tend to have issues handling major updates, so a decision was made not to ship a graphical package in the April ISO image. Which meant that installing and updating applications (and the system) on a default installation of Chakra Archimedes 2012.04 could only be accomplished from the command line.

"The European Court of Justice ruled on Wednesday that application programming interfaces (APIs) and other functional characteristics of computer software are not eligible for copyright protection. Users have the right to examine computer software in order to clone its functionality—and vendors cannot override these user rights with a license agreement, the court said."

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

The last week has been terrific for "Lunatics". We've cleared the licenses on almost all of the music -- and certainly the most important pieces. However, for a moment, I want to focus on the little problem with the one minute of music we probably won't get to use, and the right and wrong way to relicense your art if you are ever in that situation.Read the article at [url=http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/how_and_how_not_relicense_your_work_free_culture]Free Software Magazine[/url].

Subject: Ubuntu 12.04s Great Flaw: No Hibernation Feature

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

Ubuntu 12.04 is codenamed “Precise Pangolin.” But maybe it should be called “Linux that never sleeps.” And that wouldn’t be a compliment. Au contraire — the operating system’s lack of support for hibernation, or the ability to put the computer to “sleep” using no power, is a major flaw in an otherwise great Ubuntu release. And it doesn’t bode well for Canonical’s ambitions of conquering the desktop. [url=http://www.thevarguy.com/2012/05/04/ubuntu-12-04s-great-flaw-no-hibernation-feature/]Here's why[/url].

You're in IT and you have a bad reputation at your company. You're aloof, overpaid and you don't do enough. Have you ever stopped to consider why people feel this way? It could be because the rules of engagement are changing and you need to learn to communicate better.
