[ Ubuntu-BD ] Ekushey Fonts for Ubuntu
I've been using the Unicode based Bengali fonts of Ekushey [1] for a long time, specially SolaimanLipi which I use almost everywhere. To make these fine fonts easily available on Ubuntu, I've made a package of all of them. Users of Ubuntu derivatives such as Linux Mint [2] can use this package too. Font list: 1. SolaimanLipi 2. Rupali 3. Ekushey Lohit 4. Ekushey Sharifa 5. Ekushey Punarbhaba 6. Ekushey Sumit 7. Ekushey Durga 8. Ekushey Saraswati 9. Ekushey Puja 10. Ekushey Azad 11. Ekushey Godhuli 12. Ekushey Mohua Installation: To install this package, you can either download the binary file from: http://tinyurl.com/5rxv76 (MD5: a6cbc1dae63c1cf62c1ff4ef4ab73068), or install it via apt-get or your graphical package manager. This method is recommended, as you'll get notification when an update is available. Here's how to do it via apt-get: 1. Open the apt sources.list file from the run command dialogue box (ALT+F2): gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list (Ubuntu) gksudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list (Kubuntu) gksudo mousepad /etc/apt/sources.list (Xubuntu) 2. Add the following line on the bottom of the file: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-bd/ubuntu intrepid main 3. Open a shell window and type: sudo apt-get update 4. When the update is completed, type: sudo apt-get install ttf-ekushey When you see the warning message The following packages cannot be authenticated!, press y to continue. 5. Done, now you can use the Ekushey fonts on your system! I'll try to get this package into the Ubuntu repository, and possibly into the Debian repository as well. Hope this is helpful to you guys!

Wine is an open source project that takes the Windows API and allows you to run seamlessly Windows applications on your Linux machine. It's like having a small version of Windows packed up in your Linux system. Wine's API is 100% non-Microsoft code, but it uses Windows DLL in case you have them. -- ubuntu-bd mailing list ubuntu-bd@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bd
Re: [ Ubuntu-BD ] Ubuntu-Bangladesh back online
Actually it was down for 5 days, and the problem was on Canonical's end. This domain is owned by Canonical and it's pointed to their name server where I do not access, so I couldn't check what actually went wrong. After talking to the Canonical and Ubuntu-EU guys I found that it was mistakenly pointed to our old hosting company, from where we moved to another host about 11 months ago. Someone probably reverted the settings from backup by mistake, resulting in downtime of our site. Anyhow I'm glad it's working now and I appologise to everyone who tried to visit our site but couldn't. Thank you all for your continuing support and thank you for being with us. Best regards, Russell P.S. If anyone is interested to write articles/guides/tutorials/etc for ubuntu-bd.org, then please get in touch with Shahriar Tariq at shahriar AT linux.org.bd. Any help is appreciated.

Re: [ Ubuntu-BD ] problem updating linux-image-2.6.24-*
Please check if all your main repositories are on and updated. First Clean sudo aptitude clean Then Update sudo aptitude update and then Upgrade sudo aptitude safe-upgrade If this do not work then, run sudo apt-get install this will try to fix any broken installation. if that do not works, then sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a this will reconfigure all the packages, will take a very long time depending on your installed software you might try to reconfigure individual packages, which I would prefer to do in my cases sudo dpkg-reconfigure package name maybe you can try to reconfigure the kernel images or apt-get I hope this helps T.
