[ilugd] [cross]Linux Mint 11: Manual Table Of Content

2011-05-26 Thread Swapnil Bhartiya
After Fedora 15, we have created a comprehensive Linux Mint Manual for 
users. It is a very simple guide which will helps users to migrate from 
Windows or other operating systems to Linux Mint with greater ease.


It also helps you in upgrading to the latest version of Linux Mint along 
with a detailed guide about how to manage your Linux Mint.


You can read the manual here. We invite you to translate it into local 
Indian languages.

[ilugd] [OFF-TOPIC] Looking to loan/rent Blackberry

2011-05-26 Thread Raj Mathur (राज माथुर)
Hi,

Someone have a Blackberry that they're not using and which they're 
willing to loan/rent out for a week or so?  Clients are complaining 
about Blackberry issues on a mail server I've setup, and I need one to 
replicate and test.

If not, how much would (a) a cheap Blackberry cost and (b) someone be 
willing to buy it for after I've done with it? :)

Regards,

I am sure you must have looked, still just in case you haven't, try ebay.

A quick search shows price range starting from 2000. Though not sure what OS
version you are looking for, may be you can find a seller in Delhi and check
it out before buying.

I'm a bit leery about buying stuff online, specially so after the 
CCAvenue debacle.  Call me paranoid and/or a Luddite, but I prefer both 
my social networking (such as it is) and my purchases to be in the real 
world rather than online.  Thanks for the research IAC!

Do not have access to  a Blackberry, nor an idea of what it would
cost. However, depending on what issues you are facing, it might
not be enough to have the handset, as it is difficult to debug on
one.

You could start with trying the application out in a simulator.
Unfortunately, that means Microsoft Windows, maybe in a
virtual machine. There are ways of working with the Blackberry
SDK in Linux, but I have not actually tried them out:

Heh, the problem isn't critical enough (for me at least) to warrant that 
sort of effort.  In the final run, if the client's BB refuses to behave 
after basic testing from my end, I'm putting the ball in his court.  
After all, SMTP, SMTP AUTH, POP3 and IMAP4 are working fine on all other 
clients, so there's no reason for me to bang my head against a 
proprietary wall for some obscure device.  On the bright side, at least 
they're not using cryPhones.

In passing, that's the difference between setting up a Corporate E-mail 
Service and a Mail Server.  The first would involve solving all his 
problems on all his devices, the latter ends with proving that 
everything works on the server and a handful of clients.  Of course,  
the former is 7 figures, while the latter is just 6!
