El sitio <a title="Be Linux My Friend" href="http://belinuxmyfriend.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Be Linux My Friend</a>, accediendo al pedido de los lectores, creó un <a title="Muéstrame tu escritorio en Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/muestrametuescritorio" target="_blank">grupo en flickr</a> en donde se pueden ver las imágenes capturadas por todos los que participan de su sección <a title="Etiqueta Muéstrame tu escritorio" href="http://belinuxmyfriend.blogspot.com/search/label/Mu%C3%A9strame%20tu%20escritorio" target="_blank">Muéstrame tu Escritorio</a>. Allí se pueden ver muchos temas personalizados para escritorios Linux. En las imágenes se encuentran escritorios KDE, GNome, XFCE y otros, con el toque particular de unos que otros agregados entre los que están las barras de tareas alternativas (avant window navigator), los desklets y los lanzadores de aplicaciones, etc.<br />
Si están al pedo y quieren ver cómo otras personas organizan su espacio virtual personal, pueden darse una vuelta.</p>

<p>Pare che l'ultimo colpo inferto da qualche hacker gli sia stato <em>fatale</em>.</p>
<p>Al momento <a title="l'indirizzo" href="http://www.gnomefiles.org" target="_blank">l'indirizzo</a> redireziona su <a title="OSNews" href="http://www.osnews.com" target="_blank">OSNews</a>.</p>
<p>Che dire, <em>normale</em> secondo me. Non avevano voglia di occuparsene quando le cose andavano (relativamente) bene, figuriamoci quando vanno male.</p>
<p>L'autrice del post, senza promettere niente, precisa che potrebbe esserci una piccola possibilità che il sito si riprenda. Ma mi domando a che pro, dal momento che i contenuti erano costantemente obsoleti.</p>

<p><a href="http://prasannapandit.wordpress.com/2008/09/02/kde-41-first-impressions/">Prasanna's post</a> on KDE 4.1 motivated me to try out the installation on my system.I was kinda bored with the GNOME desktop experience that Hardy Heron was offering. To be honest, initially I was not really sure if I could get KDE 4 running on Hardy Heron. Especially because the site clearly mentions that the platform is unstable for debian based systems(<a href="http://www.kde.org/download/">link</a>). But <a href="http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-KDE-4-1-On-Ubuntu-8-04-91034.shtml">this link </a>on softpedia was just what I was looking for.</p>
<p>I will write a more detailed review on this after I have played around enough with this KDE release.</p>
<p>For now though, the desktop looks kewl! :)</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>its almost 3am &#38; i am stuck waiting for my laundry to finish. i love wrapping myself up in clean/warm sheets and blankets fresh out of the drier... reminds me of when i was a kid. speaking of being a kid, how cool was nickelodeon? i used to have this routine during the summer time: wake up... get ready for the day... have some pancakes &#38; eggs, and watch david the gnome. i loved that show. i always wanted to ride his fox, swift. anyway after breakfast, i'd go out for a bike ride with friends or jump in the pool (kiddie pool) until lunch. man that was the life. no job... no bills... just climb trees and throw water balloons at girls all day. i miss that.</p>
<p>if you were a kid in the late 80's, you'll remember this guy:<br />

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am really very new to this whole Linux thing. I dabbled and/or experimented with a distro or two about two years ago, but that didn't get very far. But, when I purchased my new laptop before heading off for college, I decided I would try and take the plunge. Only, this time, without Windows to fall back on. A sort of technological immersion, if you will. So I decided that my new Thinkpad would come preloaded with Linux (SLED 10, to be precise).</p>
<p>But SLED 10 didn't quite do it for me. As nice as it was to have everything work out of the box like that, there were just too many little things that kept me from enjoying it (a lack of Firefox 3 being very high on the list of annoyances). And so I began distro hunting. I tried the usuals: Ubuntu and Fedora OpenSuse. But none of them worked quite right for me. There were always issues of some sort, from not recognizing the correct resolution to not detecting the sound card. And, like I said, I'm new to this whole Linux thing, so going through and messing with whatever you have to mess with to fix those issues was much too daunting a task for me to undertake at the time (and probably still would be today). So I continued my search.</p>
<p>I had read an article once, I don't rightly recall where, about a man's journer to find an easy to use Linux Distro. I can't remember which one he ended up with, but one name in particular stuck out from his list: Linux Mint. For some reason I could remember that name (I am generally very bad with names), and so I tried it. And, for perhaps the first time in my distro hunting, everything worked right out of the box. Sound, video, wireless, everything. And, after a little bit of tweaking, I had everything set up just the way I liked it.</p>
<p>I suppose I should try and start with the beginning: the install was slick and easy. Not much else to say really. It's been a while since I last installed it, so there might be a few details missing from my memory. But I remember it being a relatively painless experience (I'm pretty sure it was just the Ubuntu installer. . . but it's been even longer since I installed Ubuntu, so I can't exactly remember).</p>
<p>But the installation isn't really very important. Oh, right. I almost forgot: it's a LiveCD. Umm, it actually works very well in LiveCD form. Oh, and there is not other option than to boot into the LiveCD to do the install. Just thought I should point that out.</p>
[caption id="attachment_15" align="alignleft" width="128" caption="My normal desktop"]<a href="http://chronolynx.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/screenshot1.png"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-15" title="screenshot1" src="http://chronolynx.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/screenshot1.png?w=128" alt="My normal desktop" width="128" height="80" /></a>[/caption]
<p>Anyway. On to the good stuff. Mint is a Gnome based distribution, but it is rather customized, in what I consider a good way. There's only the one bar, at the bottom of the screen by default. (I actually prefer it up top, but that's just me.) Perhaps there's some sexual inuendo theree, who knows? There's a variety of themes and wallpapers and whatnot installed by default, andmany of them are actually very nice. I found myself using the Lightning theme for a bit, but then I found the Nimbus one, and I use a fusion of the two now. One of the more notable customizations the Mint team made was the mintMenu. It's really very nice and intricate and actually very powerful once you learn how to use it. It does the standard thing where it launches apps, of course. And lets you search through them in real time, too. But it also lets you <em>uninstall</em> applications directly from the menu interface. As in, from the enire system, and not just the menu. Now <em>that</em> is user friendliness if ever I saw it.</p>
<p>It comes with the standard Firefox and OpenOffice and all that as well. Granted, I did have to go through the repositories to get at my preferred applications in some instances, such as video player and music player and bittorrent client, to name a few. And while I'm thinking about it, since Mint is an Ubuntu based distro, it is compatible with the Ubuntu repositories.Mint also comes with proprietary codecs and whatnot preinstalled (so flash and mp3's and all that work right out of the box).</p>
<p>Let's see. . . was there anything else I wanted to mention? Oh, right. I absolutely love Linux Mint and use it as my standard in judging other distros. It looks nice, performs well, and does everything I want it to do. Well, that's about it, I think.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have to say that in Linux on whether what services are likely to go wrong, especially in the different machines. So when you follow my <span style="color:#0000ff;">tutorial</span> to configure <em><strong><span style="font-size:180%;color:#99cc00;">openSUSE 11</span></strong></em>, perhaps you will get different results. I can't guarantee the tutorial will help for you.<br />
I do not say that the nonsense any more. Now, please refer to the following steps to configure your <span style="color:#ff6600;"><em><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">VNC</span></strong></em></span> service for gnome environment on openSUSE 11.</p>
<p>Step1: Please select <strong>Computer</strong> -&#62; <strong>Control Center</strong> in your gnome desktop.</p>

<p>I began installing Opensolaris this morning, since I hadn't tried Solaris since leaving uni (way back!). I was quite pleased to note that Sun had upped their game a LOT since Solaris 7 with the positively <strong>fugly</strong> CDE desktop and moved to standardise on Gnome (common on numerous GNU/Linux desktops).</p>
<p>Based on first impressions - as I install this, ITS PRETTY! *gasp* Even more so than the standard Ubuntu 8.04 desktop! And this is from someone that has two MacOSX machines - pretty high praise. Check out some of the screens :-)</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:justify;">Many users think that <a href="http://www.gnome.org/projects/gedit/">gedit</a> - the default text editor for the <a href="http://www.gnome.org/">GNOME</a> desktop environment - is a simple editor that can only do some basic editing. In reality, there is more to gedit than meets the eye. It has many features that makes it a good choice for programmers: syntax highlighting, auto indentation, bracket matching, etc. But perhaps the most important feature of gedit is its powerful plugin system. There are <a href="http://live.gnome.org/Gedit/Plugins">many useful plugins out there</a> for regular users and programmers alike, but in this post <strong>I'll concentrate on 5 gedit plugins that are essential for programmers.</strong> I consider them essential because <strong>they can greatly increase your programming productivity</strong> and make your life easier (<em>well, your programming life at least!</em>).</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Gedit comes with several plugins enabled by default (<em>the list of enabled plugins varies from one Linux distribution to another</em>). Additional plugins are available in the <a href="http://live.gnome.org/GeditPlugins"><em>gedit-plugins</em> package</a>. In Ubuntu, this package can be easily installed by running the following command:</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:DejaVu Sans Mono;">sudo apt-get install gedit-plugins</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">To access the list of plugins, select <em>Edit -&#62; Preferences</em>, and then select the <em>Plugins</em> tab. Here, you can enable, disable, configure, and get more info about the available plugins.</p>
<h4 style="text-align:justify;">1. <a href="http://live.gnome.org/Gedit/Plugins/Snippets">Snippets</a></h4>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>Reduce the amount of typing you have to do by using Snippets, the auto-text insertion tool for gedit.</strong> It enables you to store "<em>snippets</em>" (<em>frequently-used pieces of text</em>), and insert them quickly into your file. Insertions can be done using a keyboard shortcut or a "<em>tab trigger</em>". A tab trigger enables you to type a few characters and then hit the <em>Tab</em> key to insert the entire snippet (<em>e.g. a switch statement or a for loop</em>). The plugin comes with a number of built-in snippets for many programming languages. You can edit them and add your own by selecting <em>Tools -&#62; Manage Snippets</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><a href="http://yaserxp.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/snippets.png"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://yaserxp.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/snippets-small.png" alt="Snippets Manager" width="400" height="283" /></a></p>
<h4 style="text-align:justify;">2. <a href="http://live.gnome.org/Gedit/ToolLauncherPlugin">External Tools</a></h4>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Regarded by many as the most useful one, <strong>External Tools enables you to run any external command or shell script,</strong> specifying the keyboard shortcut, the input (<em>if any</em>), and where to display the output. It comes with a couple of useful programs pre-installed: Build, Open terminal here, Remove trailing spaces, and Run command. You can add your own by selecting <em>Tools -&#62; External Tools</em>. For example, I've added a tool that invokes the Ruby interpreter on the current file and displays the output in the bottom pane.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://yaserxp.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/externaltoolsruby-thumb.png" alt="Ruby interpreter within External Tools" width="271" height="357" /></p>
<h4 style="text-align:justify;">3. Embedded Terminal</h4>
<p style="text-align:justify;">If you are not comfortable with the command line, then you are NOT a real programmer! This plugin <strong>adds a full instance of the Bash terminal in the bottom pane of gedit,</strong> complete with your modifications.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://yaserxp.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/embeddedterminal2-thumb.png" alt="Embedded Terminal" width="404" height="172" /></p>
<h4 style="text-align:justify;">4. Session Saver</h4>
<p style="text-align:justify;">A very useful plugin, <strong>especially if you are working on a project requiring multiple files to be open at once.</strong> Sessions can be saved and loaded from <em>File -&#62; Saved sessions</em>.</p>
<h4 style="text-align:justify;">5. Code Comment</h4>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Can you remember the last time you edited a source file without commenting at least one line of code? <strong>Code Comment enables you to comment/uncomment blocks of code quickly:</strong> <em>Ctrl+M</em> to comment and <em>Ctrl+Shift+M</em> to uncomment.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Remember that <a href="http://live.gnome.org/Gedit/Plugins">there are many more gedit plugins</a>, some of which are targeted to a specific language (<em>like Python Console, which adds an interactive Python console to the bottom pane</em>). Feel free to try different plugins and transform gedit into an even more powerful IDE that suites your needs.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">What are your favorite gedit plugins that you can't live without?</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Las computadoras son un juguete para mi y como tal las trato y maltrato; hoy mi objetivo fue tener en mi computadora todas las funciones de un servidor sin que lo sea realmente. Me toco instalar el XAMPP para linux dentro de Ubuntu con escritorio gnome. Tuve ciertos contratiempos por no entrar de la forma adecuada para esta distro a la terminal del root.</p>
<p>Pasos que seguí para la instalación.</p>
<p><em>Paso 1.-</em><br />
Descargar XAMPP para linux. Fui a la página oficial de ellos: <a href="http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html">http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html</a> Ahí además se encuentran todos los pasos necesarios a seguir pero como no son exactamente los que se necesitan para Ubuntu me llevo un rato lograrlo.</p>
<p><em>Paso 2.-</em><br />
Llamo la terminal del root con los siguientes pasos:<br />
Tecleo Alt+F2<br />
Aparece la ventana donde se ejecutan las aplicaciones y escribo: gksu gnome-terminal<br />
Salta otra ventana pidiéndome mi clave de mi usuario y se la doy. Importante: debo de estar en una cuenta con privilegios suficientes para administrar sistema para que me la acepte. Se abre por fin la terminal del root y desde aquí puedo realizar todos los cambios pertinentes.</p>
<p><em>Paso 3.-</em><br />
Hay que descomprimir y crear la subcarpeta lampp en la carpeta opt:<br />
El archivo lo descargue en el escritorio, carpeta sontravesuras, subcarpeta mias y mi nombre de usuario es travesuras por tanto la ruta es: /home/travesuras/Desktop/sontravesuras/mias<br />
Escribo en la terminal: tar xvfz /home/travesuras/Desktop/sontravesuras/mias/xampp-linux-1.6.7.tar.gz -C /opt<br />
Se descomprime y crea en la carpeta opt la subcarpeta lampp.</p>
<p><em>Paso 4.-</em><br />
Para que el programa empiece a correr, doy ahi mismo la orden: /opt/lampp/lampp start<br />
Aparece:<br />
Starting XAMPP for Linux 1.6.7...<br />
XAMPP: Starting Apache with SSL (and PHP5)...<br />
XAMPP: Starting MySQL...<br />
XAMPP: Starting ProFTPD...<br />
XAMPP for Linux started.</p>
<p>Para comprobar que esta funcionando escribo en el navegador: <a href="http://localhost">http://localhost</a> En caso de estar el navegador trabajando sin conexión se la cambio, vuelvo a intentarlo y aparece la página donde me da a escoger con que idioma quiero trabajar.<br />
Donde escojo la lengua:<br />
<img src="http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/3024/xampinst01gz9.jpg" alt="Página donde seleccionamos el idioma a utilizar" /><br />
Y después de elegir el idioma:<br />
<img src="http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/8567/xampinst02ud0.jpg" alt="Bienvenida al XAMPP" /></p>
<p>Nota: Cada vez que apago la computadora se desactiva el XAMPP</p>
<p><em>Paso 5.-</em><br />
Volver seguro mi XAMPP:<br />
En este punto cualquier persona que conozca cual es mi IP puede ver lo que tengo en la carpeta /opt/lampp/htdocs y hasta las páginas donde controlo mi XAMPP. Por eso escribo en la terminal del root que todavía no cierro: /opt/lampp/lampp security<br />
Y aparece un menú interactivo para darle contraseñas a todos los puntos vulnerables y mi usuario por defecto es lampp. Si quiero cambiar una pero aparece entre corchetes la palabra no escribo yes y viceversa. Importante: la contraseña que teclees se procesa en cuanto la tecleas por eso parece que no has realizado ninguna acción ni se ven los clásicos asteriscos.<br />
Ejemplo de lo que me pidio:<br />
Starting XAMPP for Linux 1.6.7...<br />
XAMPP: Starting Apache with SSL (and PHP5)...<br />
XAMPP: Starting MySQL...<br />
XAMPP: Starting ProFTPD...<br />
XAMPP for Linux started.<br />
root@travesuras:/home/travesuras# /opt/lampp/lampp security<br />
XAMPP: Quick security check...<br />
XAMPP: Your XAMPP pages are secured by a password.<br />
XAMPP: Do you want to change the password anyway? [no] yes<br />
XAMPP: Password:<br />
XAMPP: Password (again):<br />
XAMPP: Password protection active. Please use 'lampp' as user name!<br />
XAMPP: MySQL is accessable via network.<br />
XAMPP: Normaly that's not recommended. Do you want me to turn it off? [yes]<br />
XAMPP: Turned off.<br />
XAMPP: Stopping MySQL...<br />
XAMPP: Starting MySQL...<br />
XAMPP: The MySQL/phpMyAdmin user pma has no password set!!!<br />
XAMPP: Do you want to set a password? [yes]<br />
XAMPP: Password:<br />
XAMPP: Password (again):<br />
XAMPP: Setting new MySQL pma password.<br />
XAMPP: Setting phpMyAdmin's pma password to the new one.<br />
XAMPP: MySQL has no root passwort set!!!<br />
XAMPP: Do you want to set a password? [yes]<br />
XAMPP: Write the password somewhere down to make sure you won't forget it!!!<br />
XAMPP: Password:<br />
XAMPP: Password (again):<br />
XAMPP: Setting new MySQL root password.<br />
XAMPP: Change phpMyAdmin's authentication method.<br />
XAMPP: The FTP password is still set to 'lampp'.<br />
XAMPP: Do you want to change the password? [yes]<br />
XAMPP: Password:<br />
XAMPP: Password (again):<br />
XAMPP: Reload ProFTPD...<br />
XAMPP: Done.</p>
<p>Nótese que donde me pregunta si quiero cambiar la contraseña esta entre corchetes la palabra no y cuando yo escribí yes pude cambiarla.</p>
<p>Tecleo <a href="http://localhost/xampp/security.php">http://localhost/xampp/security.php</a> en el navegador o elijo el enlace Seguridad. Y si todo va bien aparece algo así:<br />
<img src="http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/1690/xampinst03jh0.jpg" alt="Donde nos dice la disponibilidad del XAMPP a terceros" /><br />
La palabra Seguro dentro de un recuadro verde quiere decir que ya nadie va a poder acceder a nuestras páginas a menos que sepa el nombre de usuario y contraseña.</p>
<p>Hecho esto esta finalizada la instalación y blindada para que nadie sin autorización pueda ingresar al XAMPP.</p>
<p>Otras cosas útiles de saber:</p>
<p>PARAMETROS START Y STOP<br />
Para ejecutarlos debe de ser en la terminal del root y se escribe /opt/lampp/lampp seguido del parámetro y recalco, todos deben de usarse dentro de la terminal del root para que funcionen. Ejemplo /opt/lampp/lampp start</p>
<p>start.- Inicia el XAMPP<br />
stop.- Detiene el XAMPP<br />
restart.- Detiene y reinicia el XAMPP<br />
startapache.- Inicia solo el Apache.<br />
startssl.- Inicia el soporte Apache SSL. Este comando activa el soporte SSL permanentemente, e.g. si nosotros restauramos XAMPP en lo sucesivo el SSL estará activado.<br />
startmysql.- Inicia solo el MySQL database.<br />
startftp.- Inicia el ProFTPD server. Via FTP nosotros podemos subir archivos a el servidor (User "nobody", password "lampp" o la que le hayamos asignado). Este comando activa permanentemente el ProFTPD, e.g. en lo sucesivo si reactivamos XAMPP el FTP siempre lo encontraremos activado.<br />
stopapache.- Detiene el Apache.<br />
stopssl.- Detiene el Apache SSL support. Este comando desactiva el SSL support permanentemente, e.g. Cada vez que se reactive el XAMPP el SSL lo encontraremos desactivado.<br />
stopmysql.- Detiene el MySQL database.<br />
stopftp.- Detiene el ProFTPD server. Este comando desactiva el ProFTPD permantentemente, e.g. Desactiva el FTP sin necesidad de dar en cada ocasión la orden cuando reiniciemos el XAMPP<br />
security.- Inicia un pequeño programa de seguridad</p>
<p>ARCHIVOS Y DIRECTORIOS IMPORTANTES</p>
<p>/opt/lampp/bin/<br />
Tiene los comandos home de XAMPP. Por ejemplo el /opt/lampp/bin/mysql llama el MySQL monitor.<br />
/opt/lampp/htdocs<br />
Es donde estan las paginas que queremos probar o utilizar para que estén en la web.<br />
/opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf<br />
Es el archivo de configuración del Apache.<br />
/opt/lampp/etc/my.cnf<br />
Archivo de configuración del MySQL.<br />
/opt/lampp/etc/php.ini<br />
Archivo de configuración PHP.<br />
/opt/lampp/etc/proftpd.conf<br />
Archivo de configuración del ProFTPD (solo 0.9.5)<br />
/opt/lampp/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php<br />
El archivo de configuración del phpMyAdmin.</p>
<p>Comandos destacados:</p>
<p>Si quiero detener el XAMPP escribo: /opt/lampp/lampp stop<br />
Y aparece:<br />
Stopping XAMPP for Linux 1.6.7...<br />
XAMPP: Stopping Apache with SSL...<br />
XAMPP: Stopping MySQL...<br />
XAMPP: Stopping ProFTPD...<br />
XAMPP stopped.</p>
<p>Para saber que versión de php estoy usando tecleo en la terminal del root:<br />
/opt/lampp/lampp phpstatus<br />
Si quiero cambiarla a la PHP 5.x escribo:<br />
/opt/lampp/lampp php5<br />
Y si es para la PHP 4.X:<br />
/opt/lampp/lampp php4</p>
<p>Para desactivar permanentemente ftp escribo en el la terminal del root:<br />
/opt/lampp/lampp stopftp</p>
<p>Para desinstalar, también en la terminal de root:<br />
rm -rf /opt/lampp</p>

<p>This is Shagley the Gnome.  He's sad because he has really big hands... and, really, that's no fun.  He probably has a hard time doing gnome-y things like eating nibbles of food and flipping through books of magic.  But I bet he can hitch rides on foxes really well.  I'm glad I drew you, Shagley.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Genial Tip el que encuentro en <a href="http://120linux.com/aspecto-reloj-ubuntu/">120% Linux</a>, consiste en una pequeña modificación para personalizar la manera en que queremos que se muestre el reloj en el panel de gnome.<a href="http://120linux.com/aspecto-reloj-ubuntu/#respond"><br />
</a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-948 aligncenter" src="http://120linux.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/cambio-reloj.gif" alt="" width="173" height="90" /></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Básicamente estos son los pasos que hay que seguir:</p>
<blockquote>
<ol>
<li>Pulsa las teclas <em>Alt+F2</em>. Esta combinación de teclas abre el panel para ejecutar una aplicación.</li>
<li>Escribimos <em>gconf-editor</em> y pulsamos en el botón Ejecutar.</li>
<li>Ahora que tenemos abierto el Editor de configuración, en la columna izquierda vamos a <em>apps &#62; panel &#62; applets &#62; clock_screen &#62; prefs</em>.</li>
<li>En el <em>campo custom_format</em> escribimos: <strong><em>&#60;span size="smaller" color=”#c8c8c8″&#62;%a %d %b&#60;/span&#62;  &#60;b&#62;%H:%M&#60;/b&#62;</em></strong> . En el campo color, escribimos en <a href="http://html-color-codes.info/codigos-de-colores-hexadecimales/" target="_blank">formato hexadecimal</a> el color que queremos dar a la fecha.<br />
NOTA: Wordpress, modifica las comillas, asi que cuando lo copieis, aseguraos de modificar las comillas manualmente.</li>
<li>En el campo <em>format</em> escribimos <strong><em>custom</em></strong>.</li>
<li>Cerramos el panel del Editor de configuración (gconf-editor) y veremos los cambios reflejados en nuestro escritorio.</li>
</ol>

<p>Se trata de un <a href="http://code.google.com/p/circular-application-menu/">menú circular de aplicaciónes</a> (CAM) un prototipo reflejando en la misma estructura que la actual aplicación de menú para el escritorio GNOME. Esto fue originalmente sólo un prototipo de papel que se hizo en marzo de 2007, y se decidiò llevar a codigo en la Navidad 2007-2008.</p>
<p>Requiere:</p>
<ul>
<li> GNOME</li>
<li>Compiz, etc.</li>
<li>gtk+ 2.12</li>
<li>compiz-devel</li>
</ul>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>À votre avis, de quoi je vais vous parler avec un titre pareil ?</p>
<p>On est au 21ème siècle. Le millénaire est déjà bien entamé, depuis bientôt 10 ans. Certes, on n'a pas encore les voitures volantes, mais on y est !</p>
<p>J'avoue n'avoir pas été victime de ce genre de malfonctionnements depuis des années. C'est assez impressionnant et à peine croyable... Mais laissez-moi vous raconter.</p>
<p>J'achète un nouvel ordinateur de bureau, petit, pas cher, silencieux et puissant, qui contient tout ce dont j'ai besoin. Pour les geeks, le détail en <a href="http://www.rot13.com/">rot13</a>. Pour les autres, c'est inintéressant, et juste pas le sujet de ce billet :</p>
<ul>
<li>cebp dhnq-pber 2,4 TUm</li>
<li>4 Tb qr ENZ</li>
<li>QQ 32B Tb FNGN</li>
<li>AIvqvn 9500 TG 512 Zb</li>
<li>HFO 2.0, Sverjver, yrpgrhef qr pnegrf Synfu, QIQ</li>
<li>Pynivre, fbhevf, cnf q'épena</li>
</ul>
<p>Donc cet ordi, je le ramène chez moi (j'en chie, c'est lourd...). Je le déballe, je le fous sous le bureau, je le branche... Je le démarre, et là on entre dans le vif du sujet :</p>
<ul>
<li>La souris ne fonctionne pas, je la débranche, je la rebranche</li>
<li>Elle fonctionne mais pas la molette</li>
<li>L'affichage est mal configuré, je le configure</li>
<li>La molette se met magiquement à fonctionner, je ne sais pas pourquoi ni comment</li>
<li>Les mises à jour se téléchargent avec mon consentement, et après installation je dois rebooter (il doit y avoir un noyau à jour dans le tas)</li>
<li>Le reboot est trrrrès long : à l'extinction <strong>et</strong> au redémarrage</li>
<li>Les applications que je suis en droit d'attendre ne sont pas installées, je dois le faire moi-même, quelle perte de temps</li>
<li>Des applications que je n'ai pas demandé sont installées</li>
<li>On me demande tout plein de numéros de série en tout genre pour plein de trucs, je clique « plus tard » à chaque fois</li>
<li>L'OS me télécharge à nouveau des mises à jour en arrière-plan <strong>sans me demander</strong> <strong>mon avis à aucun moment</strong>, ça me bloque mon VLC en streaming</li>
<li>Je relance VLC, il refonctionne, il se rebloque, rien à faire</li>
<li>Pas moins de 80 services démarrés !</li>
<li>Une zone de notification blindée d'icônes en tout genre qui bouffent des ressources</li>
<li>Une fois une seconde série (gni ?) de mises à jour téléchargée et installée, il y a à nouveau reboot, encore une fois très long</li>
</ul>
<p>Je vous le donne en mille, vous savez de quel OS je parle ici ?</p>
<p>Je vous laisse un tout petit peu réfléchir... OK ? Je vous le révèle dans 3... 2... 1...</p>
<p>Un OS aussi pourri, il ne peut s'agir que de Microsoft Windows(R) Vista(TM). Je précise que c'est le SP1, donc censé corriger tout plein de bugs de jeunesse.</p>
<p>Moi qui depuis des années fonctionne très bien sous Linux, qui accepte quelques petits problèmes mineurs bien souvent rapidement corrigés... Ça me fait bizarre de me retrouver avec autant de problèmes sur un truc qui sort de la boîte, et intégré par le constructeur, donc validé par l'éditeur et le constructeur... C'est complètement fou.</p>
<p>Je pensais que les « on-dit » sur Vista étaient un peu infondés. Je pensais que les gens ne l'aimaient pas, car ils ont trop pris l'habitude de Windows XP, sorti en 2001, donc obsolète, et qui n'a pas évolué depuis, à part quelques patches ! Je pensais que les gens avaient tellement l'habitude qu'ils ne voulaient pas changer, que c'était juste une allergie à la nouveauté. En fait non. Je faisait fausse route.</p>
<p><strong>Vista est réellement mauvais</strong>. Point barre. Mauvais. À de nombreux points de vue. Pour s'en convaincre, une <a title="Critiques de Vista" href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Windows_Vista#Critiques">liste de critiques sur Wikipédia francophone</a> met un peu les pendules à l'heure, pareil pour la <a title="Vista crticism" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Vista#Criticism">section « criticism » de Wikipedia anglophone</a>, mais pas tout à fait les mêmes remarques. Ces <strong>critiques</strong> sont non seulement <strong>référencées et argumentées</strong>, mais aussi et surtout <strong>revues et corrigées</strong> par de multiples éditeurs, <strong>des deux camps</strong>. Extrait :</p>
<ul>
<li>Gestion numérique des droits</li>
<li>Contrôle d'accès utilisateur</li>
<li>Abus de position dominante</li>
<li>Politique tarifaire</li>
<li>Besoins excessifs en puissance matérielle</li>
<li>Vente liée</li>
</ul>
<p>Liste non-exhaustive.</p>
<p>Je détaillerai cette critique personnelle : <strong>on m'a forcé à acheter Windows Vista</strong>. M'entendez-vous à la <a title="Direction générale de la concurrence, de la consommation et de la répression des fraudes" href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/DGCCRF">DGCCRF</a> ? Il s'agit d'un cas évident de <a title="racketiciel.info" href="http://www.racketiciel.info/">vente liée</a>, interdite en France. <strong>Microsoft avec la complicité (forcée ?) du constructeur et du distributeur m'a forcé à acheter Windows alors que je n'en veux pas</strong>. De même, d'autres logiciels (propriétaires, qui plus est) m'ont été vendus de force.<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p>Je ne voulais pas de Vista, cet OS super-propriétaire. Vista est blindé de <a title="Gestion numérique des droits" href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gestion_num%C3%A9rique_des_droits">DRM</a>, en français Gestion Numérique des Droits, comme si une entreprise privée étrangère pouvait <strong>chez vous</strong> se <strong>substituer à d'hypothétiques lois</strong>, à <strong>contrôler vos actions</strong>, et parfois même à les <strong>rapporter à la maison mère</strong>. Le vendeur (très sympathique et de bon conseil) m'a dit dans un premier temps qu'il n'était pas possible de vendre l'ordinateur sans Mircosfot Wnidwos(R) Vsita(TM). Je lui ai soutenu que si, en évoquant la vente liée et la DGCCRF. Il a bien évidemment avoué très vite que c'était possible, mais il m'a bien précisé que des procédures ont bien eu lieu avec cette marque d'ordinateur, mais n'ont mené à des remboursements que de... 4,50 $ ! Pour lui, la procédure était fastidieuse et ne valait pas le coup, il me l'a donc déconseillée. Je me tiens à la disposition de la DGCCRF pour témoigner.</p>
<p>Je continue mon tour du « propriétaire », parce que vu que je l'avait chez moi, je voulais vraiment sincèrement essayer cet OS. Mon objectif était de connaître et manipuler enfin cet OS, sorte d'arlésienne pour moi. Je voulais rentrer dedans, trouver des améliorations : autant de petits plus qui améliorent le quotidien, que de réelles avancées... Mais je n'ai rien trouvé de tel. Voici ce que j'ai pu observer comme débilités en très peu de temps, à peine une heure :</p>
<ul>
<li>Le Ctrl+Alt+Suppr bascule l'écran dans un mode qui vire toutes les fenêtres, je ne sais toujours pas ce que j'ai derrière</li>
<li>Le scrolling d'une fenêtre ne fonctionne pas lorsqu'elle n'est pas au premier plan</li>
<li>Les fenêtre ne sont toujours pas collantes aux bords</li>
<li>L'OS m'a installé Microsoft SQL Server 2005 !</li>
<li>Je ne peux toujours pas taper efficacement du vrai français sur mon clavier, à l'aide de raccourcis simples :
<ul>
<li>Des majuscules accentuées</li>
<li>Des guillemets français</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Une interface surchargée à tous niveaux, excessivement compliquée, stressante</li>
<li>Des popups incessants, intrusifs, agressifs</li>
<li>IE, même en version 7, est toujours aussi lent, moche et nul (et toujours obsolète, IE8 beta 2 à peine publié, il est déjà évident que ça améliore trop peu la situation)</li>
<li>Les décorations de fenêtres sont vulgaires, grossières et perturbantes</li>
<li>Le menu Démarrer est un cauchemar : bordélique, incompréhensible et anti-intuitif, la prise en main est vraiment repoussante</li>
<li>Les gadgets dérangent et bouffent des ressources</li>
<li>Interface surchargée dans toutes les fenêtres, ça fait mal au crâne</li>
<li>Partout ailleurs, des widgets bizarres et contre-productifs</li>
</ul>
<p>Je m'arrête là, j'ai perdu une heure. Expérience à ne pas reproduire. Le cauchemar d'ergonomie. Mircosfot n'a certainement pas d'ingénieurs ergonomes, ou alors ils n'ont pas fait leur boulot (ou au mieux, vraiment très-très mal). Il n'y a clairement pas de vision globale de la chose Vista, c'est déplorable.</p>
<p>Autant Windows XP, le vieil OS obsolète de 2001 était utilisable, mais là Vista ne l'est clairement pas. Les autres OS que sont Mac OS X et Linux/BSD avec leurs habillages Gnome et KDE sont loin, bien loin devant. Les ergonomies de ces derniers sont à des années lumière de Vista, totu simplement fonctionnelles. Mircosfot va avoir du mal à rattraper l'obsolescence de IE (même IE8) ainsi que l'horreur d'ergonomie de Vista, même avec Seven/Vienna/Blackcomb.</p>
<p>J'ai donc installé <a title="Ubuntu Studio" href="http://ubuntustudio.org/">Ubuntu Studio</a>, quel bonheur ! Simple, rapide et apaisant. Intuitif, tout bien installé et paramétré par défaut. Installé facilement, utilisable directement. L'installation de nouveaux logiciels se déroule en deux clics (case à cocher, bouton « installer »), ceux-ci étant qualifiés, revus et corrigés par ma distribution et sa communauté.</p>
<p>Il n'y a donc plus aucune trace de Vista sur mon disque dur, il aura vécu une heure. Hélas, je l'ai payé, et j'ai ainsi « voté » pour Mircosfot (au sens du « marché »). On compte donc ici une vente en plus pour la firme de Redmond, et aucune base de donnée mondiale de ventes ne référence mon Linux. Si, allez, je surfe les sites web avec un User Agent contenant le mot-clef "Linux". Mais cette « vente » m'est arrachée à ma volonté et mon porte-feuille.</p>
<p>J'avoue, tout est bien évidemment à relativiser dans ce post, à lire avec modération donc, mais un tel enchaînement de désagréments m'expliquent enfin les chiffres médiocres de ventes de Vista et le nombre hallucinant de retours en arrière des clients vers la version obsolète XP.</p>
<p>Linux est libre, simple et fiable. Il répond à vos besoins bien plus que vous ne l'imaginez.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Okay, this is something I had been wanting to try for quite some time now. Before I begin, let me tell you that I have been a <a href="http://www.gnome.org/" target="_blank">GNOME</a> fan ever since I have used my Fedora Core 3, and KDE 3.x has never appealed to me. But since <a href="http://kde.org/" target="_blank">KDE</a> 4 looked a lot different in the <a href="http://translate.google.co.in/translate?hl=en&#38;sl=de&#38;u=http://www.pro-linux.de/berichte/kde41.html&#38;sa=X&#38;oi=translate&#38;resnum=3&#38;ct=result&#38;prev=/search%3Fq%3Dkde%2B4.1%2Bscreenshots%26start%3D10%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dcom.ubuntu:en-US:unofficial%26hs%3DZP6%26sa%3DN" target="_blank">screenshots</a> from its predecessors, I wanted to give it another chance. And KDE 4.1 turned out to be a bundle of pleasant surprises all the way through.</p>
<p><strong>Installation:</strong></p>
<p>I wanted to install KDE 4.1 on my existing <a href="http://www.ubuntu.com/" target="_blank">Ubuntu</a> (not <a href="http://www.kubuntu.org/" target="_blank">Kubuntu</a>) Hardy. This <a href="http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-KDE-4-1-On-Ubuntu-8-04-91034.shtml" target="_blank">softpedia article</a> provided a step-by-step tutorial on how to do it. And the bundle of pleasant surprises opened up right from the installation stage. The installation proceeded without a single hitch from the beginning to end, something I admit, I wasn't expecting at all. All I did was follow a few steps from that article and I was ready to login to KDE! It didn't even need a reboot! Mind you, I might be one of those luckier ones here, because as the comments in the article tell you, not all of them had everything working for them. I changed my session to KDE and logged in, and was greeted by a beautiful splash screen and an unusual looking desktop. And I was on my way to start playing with a brand new approach to using my desktop.</p>
<p><strong>Things I liked:</strong></p>
<p>Let's quickly get to the things I liked in KDE 4.1. First of all, the desktop looks great. And I mean really stunning. The default wallpaper's great, the color combination's good (some say it looks too much like Vista, but I am not complaining), there's a new way your desktop icons show up and overall, there's only one word to describe it: Refreshing. I quickly headed over to the start menu (or main menu or K-menu or Applicaton Launcher or whatever it is called). There was another of those surprises awaiting me. The menu is grouped into different categories with little tab-like things which switch when I hover over them. Certainly beats the hell out of GNOME's three different menus which eat up all of my panel space. And best of all, there is a search bar waiting for me to type the first few characters of the application I want to open. Kind of like <a href="http://prasannapandit.wordpress.com/2007/12/27/superfast-application-launching-with-launchy/" target="_blank">Launchy</a> built into the start menu. Next I proceeded to try out the desktop widgets. They are very similar to <a href="http://desktop.google.com/">Google Desktop's</a> widgets, except it is easier to dock them anywhere you want. I admit the number of widgets provided is not much, but it will only get better. I decided an analog clock will look nice on mine. Then I played around for a while with the desktop settings. Another surprise. Instead of an image, I can put a slideshow of images as my wallpaper. So I gave the path of my wallpapers directory and set the timer to change it every two minutes. You can only imagine how interesting this is going to make my computing experience (all the wallpapers I have are of pretty actresses). I headed towards the file manager now. Another thing that made me smile. A <a href="http://prasannapandit.wordpress.com/2007/08/28/tabbed-browsing-for-your-folders/" target="_blank">tabbed file manager</a>, which looks like the <a href="http://www.zabkat.com/x2lite.htm" target="_blank">Xplorer2</a> I use on Windows! Good God, I have had dreams like this! The run command brings up a tiny Launchy like window, and even does exactly the same things as Launchy, with the drop-down menu and all that. I can see KDE becoming a very useful and productive desktop.</p>
[caption id="attachment_80" align="aligncenter" width="510" caption="KDE 4.1 Desktop (Not the default wallpaper!)"]<a href="http://prasannapandit.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/screenshot-orig1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-80" src="http://prasannapandit.wordpress.com/files/2008/09/screenshot-orig1.jpg" alt="KDE 4.1" width="510" height="330" /></a>[/caption]
<p><strong>Things I didn't like:</strong></p>
<p>Having sung praises of KDE, I must admit there are some things I didn't like. The toolbar and the titlebar of the windows look as dull as ever. Sure, you can customize almost anything in KDE, but why does such a beautiful desktop have such sad looking windows? Adding stuff to my panel and rearranging them was a major pain. The widgets moved erratically and I wondered more than once how a particular widget got there when I definitely didn't want to put it there. I breathed a satisfactory sigh only when I got all the widgets where I wanted and locked them. I won't dare to move them any time soon for sure! Another feature I didn't like was how <a href="http://dolphin.kde.org/" target="_blank">Dolphin</a> (the file manager) insists on opening everything on single click. Hey, I come from a Windows (gasp!) background, and I like to double-click stuff, ok? How do I change it? Also the Application Launcher (or K-menu, etc) shows me gibberish for a fraction of a second before loading my menu. Is my hardware too old for KDE 4? Maybe. I don't know.</p>
<p><strong>Final thoughts:</strong></p>
<p>In spite of all these shortcomings (mostly minor, as you must have observed), I have to put KDE 4.1 under the "Exceeds Expectations" category. So where does this put me, the die-hard GNOME fan? I'll put it this way: Yesterday when I was logging into KDE, a window came up asking me if I wanted to make KDE the default desktop. I thought for a moment, and clicked on  "Make Default".</p>
<p>Don't worry, I am not saying everything is over between me and GNOME. I'll be following its releases closely, and who knows, I might switch back if it gives me a better desktop experience!</p>
