put your right hand over your computer mouse*, move the mouse pointer to
the button which is titled Google Search. left click that button

probably will contain links to your query.

now how do yu distiguish between links and text? simple. links usually
are blue in color and have a blue line under them, and when you move
your mouse pointer over them, the pointer converts into a hand.
remember, it'd be a digital hand image, not a real human or elvish hand.

you've to click one of those links to get an answer to your query.

you could also thank google, and avail many of their services by

 secondly, is it very difficult for you to send messages in plain text?
 despite telling yu several times, it doesn't seem there is any effect on
 yu. i don't think it is real difficult to shift to plain text in yahoo
 or your owmnahar account's mail client, this will save the list of BIG

[ilugd]: From Chennai List : [Fwd: [Ilugc] Is the GPL completely misunderstood?]

2003-03-29 Thread Sudhir Gandotra
 Is the GPL completely misunderstood? 
 
 What is the GPL? 
 
 The GPL, GNU General Public License, is a license
 boilerplate that the FSF, Free Software Foundation,
 has put forward to be adopted by software developers
 that are creating software. The GPL has some
 fundamental flaws that may actually make one wonder if
 people using the GPL license really understand the
 license. 
 
 First, one must understand that the ideals behind the
 GPL are that software should be 'free', meaning that
 you should be able to buy it, modify it, redistribute
 it, support it, etc. Many people, myself included,
 didn't really understand the license agreement and it
 is obvious that the FSF must get dozens of questions
 like that because they hide behind a boilerplate link
 to a page on their site. 
 
 Therein lies one major hurdle. Another problem is that
 many people are under the impression that if it is
 GPL, the software should carry no cost. The FSF says
 that nothing could be further from the truth, however,
 the GPL ingeniously assures this because of its
 distribution clause. The first person to buy an
 application is generously allowed to distribute the
 code and the source, removing any financial incentive
 from original software author. 
 
 Even the FSF has no idea how to build a business
 around software that is released GPL. I posed that
 question, and their response was fuzzy and vague. It
 was suggested that I run a different division to fund
 the software development division. As a business
 owner, why run a division that is a cost center if it
 isn't needed. 
 
 With that in mind, lets consider a few scenarios
 dealing with GPL software. The FSF clearly states that
 someone can charge whatever amount they want for
 software and the source code. So, you take a contract
 with a company to develop software, do the right thing
 and release it GPL. You sell it to your client for
 $500, thinking, I spent dozens of hours writing this,
 I'll put a reasonable cost on there so that I can
 resell hundreds of them. 
 
 Fair enough. 
 
 But, what happens if I, as a client, buy your software
 along with the source and decide, hey, this is good
 stuff, let me sell it for $100 and flood the market.
 What happens to your income? It is gone. Someone else
 is making the money off your product -- your efforts.
 Even better, I can decide to distribute the software
 at no cost. And what you have to show for it is a
 license that allows your clients to do precisely that.
 Freedom. 
 
 Lets analyze the flip side. Lets say that you decide
 to write the software and charge the client for every
 minute of your work. The client ends up with a
 software product that cost them $4. Now, you
 decide that you want to resell that software. What
 price do you put on it knowing that your next client
 could decide to distribute it? If you cut the price
 too much, the client that paid you to do the
 development won't rehire you since you have given his
 competitor the tools to compete more easily. Companies
 generally dislike funding software development for
 their competitors. 
 
 How about an idea you have that will revolutionize the
 world. Don't release that under GPL, there is no
 intellectual property protection. Have some secret way
 of doing something that is better than the way it is
 currently being done? Might as well just get rid of
 your competitive edge because the GPL will strip you
 of any rights you might have to that. 
 
 See, the GPL in its Marxist form is a fine thought,
 but what does it really do? 
 
 The GPL creates hundreds of software products that are
 mimic's of their commercial counterpart, many of which
 are poor imitations. Yes, I know, the market is new
 and there are years of existing software development
 to catch up with. But, most of these software
 developers have a job and do this as a hobby or are
 paid by a company to write software released under the
 GPL. But what have we done? We've turned over
 development to armchair developers. This isn't to say
 that there aren't good software projects developed
 under GPL, but they are in the minority. 
 
 Without singling out any application, there is a
 software package that makes it truly evident that the
 programmers have no concept what the finished product
 is supposed to do or what the program they are
 mimicing actually does. It appears as if they have
 gotten together to develop a product to mimic a
 Microsoft product, pushed all of the buttons to see
 what the results are, and tried to imitate the
 actions. Push a button and see no visible result? Who
 knows how that button is supposed to work. We'll leave
 it in, but there's no code behind it. There is a lot
 of software that mimic's Microsoft, and yet, time
 after time, these are the same people that complain
 about Microsoft and what they do wrong. Then, to top
 it off, since they released it GPL, they ask for
 donations. Wait? Can't Freedom have a price? 
 
 These authors don't know that they

Re: [ilugd]: issue.net file in /etc

2003-03-29 Thread Ritesh Raj Sarraf
i've never used Mandrake but the procedure could work for it.
the issue file displays messages on the local screen whereas the issue.net 
file displays messages to someone logging remotely. 
now, every reboot changes the contets... the reason could be that at every 
reboot some commands are overwriting the files.. look for system startup 
scripts in mandrake like rc.local or something like it..

 Dear all,
 
 I use Mandrake 9.0. Most probably I login in text mode instead of graphical one. 
 
 My question is that while logging in text mode we come across our login screen which 
 looks like :
 
 Mandraka Linux 9.0  xxx
 Kernel 
 login :
 
 I wish to design this screen on my own which I can by altering Issue file in /etc 
 directory. When I alter this file and save it and then come on login screen by 
 pressing Ctrl+D, I get my altered screen. But when I restart my computer next time, 
 I find that my altered screen has gone and the aforesaid Mandrake screen is there. 
 Later I observed that there is a Issue.net file in /etc whose contents overwrite my 
 designed screen. Even I deleted the issue.net file to overcome this problem. But 
 when I reboot my computer, it is generated automatically next time. I tried to find 
 the source form where it is generated ie. issue.net by trying find command, but of 
 no avail. If there anyone who can tell me from where this issue.net file is 
 generated to solve this problem. Pl. guide and oblige.
