I Love Your Opinions
Nick, I love [your columns] and all your articles. Up until you came along, I thought I was the only Linux jinx. I've had very few easy install/upgrades of Linux. My latest, Kubuntu5, installs fine, although Kubuntu6 can't seem to find my gateway to the Internet, no matter what I set with ifconfig, so I'm stuck for now with 5. My motherboard is an ASUS A8V-MX with an integrated Ethernet, sound and video (which don't work), so again, I agree with you.
I've used CP/M, DOS, OS/2 and (yuck) windoze. Then three years ago, I discovered Linux, and I've been converted—if only it wasn't so damn picky.
/var/opinion/ this month, October 2006, is very VERY interesting! I plan to
use your experience installing MythTV as a guide to make my attempt to
do the same upgrade. Please make this an article, including all hardware
and software, with explicit steps to follow.

Deja Vu All over Again
Your recent changes to the magazine layout reminded me of the time when Dr. Dobb's Journal dropped Forth from the programming tree.
The older Dr. Dobb's Journal's taught me to use the then free language Forth; Dr. Dobb's Journal also felt like it was losing its innocence.
Ten pages of ads before making any sense is beautifully commercial.
I wish you all success in presenting Linux with a glossy, professional,
corporate image.

Fedora Disk Labels All over Again
I have found a reason why Fedora uses disk labels rather than device
file entries. It may be because, on some machines, using device
files causes a strange race condition. For example, in our lab
(www.minds.may.ie/~balor/photographs/lab) we have machines
on which GRUB correctly interprets /dev/sda1 as the first SATA
device. However, on boot (before root is mounted), the Linux kernel
(sometimes) assigns the /dev/sda1 device file to the first USB
mass-storage device that happens to be plugged in to the machine,
causing a failure to mount the root partition. Obviously, using /
as the root disk label means that any USB mass-storage disks would be
ignored, and the correct partition on the SATA disk would be mounted.
I do agree that a label such as FC5Root is preferable to /, as one
could then have FC4Root and FC5Root on the same box.
Aidan Delaney
I noticed this same unpredictable behavior on one of my systems too. I installed a RAID card to avoid down time due to any single disk failure (I use RAID 5), and I noticed that Linux does not respect the boot order I set in the BIOS. I haven't noticed any race conditions with any given kernel, but one kernel will make the RAID card /dev/sda, and another kernel will make it /dev/sdb. I discovered how to control which it sees first with Ubuntu by changing a script in the initrd image. Look for how I did it in our new tech tips column this month called Tech Tips with Gnull and Voyd. —Ed.
No Myth about MythTV
I have just read your /var/opinion in the October 2006 issue of Linux Journal. You make a couple of valid points about MythTV—for example, that it can be time-consuming to set up, but once it is running, it is like 99% of the Linux boxes I have ever built in that it just keeps working! Can I suggest for ease of setup and use that you give MythDora a try? The ISO images can be found at www.g-ding.tv, and the main guy there is very helpful (so much so that I actually felt like I wanted to feed data back into the system, not feeling obliged as I have with some other projects I have assisted with).
Incidentally, you are right—it is becoming apparent, from what I have read on the forums, that the Hauppauge WINTV-PVR-500 is just 2*150's bolted together (so why didn't they call it the 300? Too obvious?). I am sure you are aware, but if you have any issues getting it working, the guys over at linuxtv are very approachable and have helped me out many a time with my Compro DVB-T300s and my Dvico FusionHDTV Dual (which I must admit thought would be a bag of pants but works flawlessly).
I must admit, I do look forward to reading your magazine, and your /var/opinion page does usually give me something to think about.
Now for a shameless plug: to see how far I have gotten with my MythTV
build, go to trueentropy.linuxbloggers.com, and all should become
apparent (if I have had time/remembered to update it).
Digital Subscriptions
Having bought the paper version of LJ for more than ten years, I took out a digital subscription last week. It's a real improvement! Not only can I read back issues without having to search round the flat for them, but I also can fit dozens of issues on a memory stick, and my wife doesn't complain that I'm hoarding paper!
Rotating the view on my IBM 1600x1200 ThinkPad and holding it sideways
gives a perfectly readable full-page view.

64-Bit Laptops
The discussion in the Letters column [October 2006] about 64-bit laptops caught my eye. One reason to have 64-bit laptops is binary compatibility with the desktop. My laptop is purposely set up to mirror my desktop system. I use rsync to move things back and forth and keep them synchronized.
Right now, I don't have to worry about moving executable files back and
forth or where I do a "make". That's a situation I would like to
keep unchanged if and when I move to 64-bit systems.
Aharon (Arnold) Robbins
Less Technical?
First off, I think Linux Journal is a terrific asset to the Linux community.
I have to agree with Guilherme DeSouza [see Letters, November 2006], who argues that Linux Journal is going downhill, as it moves toward less technical content and more attempts to appeal to the masses. This is what caused Dr. Dobb's Journal to crash while LJ was taking off: Dr. Dobb's Journal tried to expand into cute and slick articles and lost its core audience, while LJ was offering solid technical content.
I certainly applaud the intent of Taylor and Gagnéto make Linux more accessible to a wider audience. But, I question whether LJ is the forum for it. For example, if you walk to your local bookseller and watch who buys LJ, how many MS Windows programmers do you think you'll see? I've tried to interest MS programmers in Linux and gotten nothing but bored stares.
If that's the case with Windows programmers, ask yourself how many Windows users are going to pick up a Linux Journal. My guess is the number of readers of LJ who have no programming background and no Linux background is less than 1%, but surely you have the numbers to say. If you really want to reach the masses, maybe LJ should sponsor a contest for the best Linux-related article published in, say, PC Magazine or the Wall Street Journal.
In short, I hope you'll not abandon your core audience as
Dr. Dobb's Journal did.
I enjoy LJ and read it thoroughly, and would hate to see
LJ lose its way.
A Supplement to "The Dark Age of Linux Journal"
I have to admit that this note was provoked by Guilherme DeSouza's letter in the November 2006 issue. Let me introduce myself: I have been a user of Linux for a long time. In fact, I tried to install the Red Hat Halloween release in 1994. I had read of Linux before 1994, and I considered it the most exciting development in computing at that time. The Red Hat disc did not have all the drivers for the peripherals of my rather advanced Compaq, and despite many helpful but frustrating phone discussions with Red Hat, I actually used Slackware, which was more up to date and I think was packaged with Matt Welsh's "Linux Installation and Getting Started". This being said, I consider myself an amateur user of Linux rather than a professional. To such as myself, there was much of interest in the early issues of Linux Journal, and I have had a subscription since the beginning. One thing that sticks in my memory was the introduction of ext3 and the instructions in LJ to use a make file to install it, which really worked to my great excitement. I used Linux as my basic working system in support of my research and for connecting to my central UNIX system until my retirement. Latterly, I found SUSE most satisfactory, and I continued using that at home. I will admit that I did dual-boot with Windows, because I needed some of the programs that made up the MS Office collection.
However, I am afraid that Linux Journal is becoming, dare I say it, boring to someone like myself. It seems to me to be aspiring to emulate a professional journal but without the rigor of the Journal of the ACM. My math is up to it, and I can scan the titles of the ACM and read the articles that interest me, but I used to read the Linux Journal cover to cover, and these past few months, I realized that I no longer do so. The other US Linux magazines (are there more than one?) seem to be thin negligible broadsheets, but the European journals are different. Linux Magazine (not the US magazine of the same name) is interesting, and I do read it more or less completely.
I read the on-line TUX magazine with a great amount
of interest, but I would
prefer to see some of its content in Linux Journal. I don't know
if your editorial staff has looked at Linux Magazine
recently, but they
should do so despite the $10 price.
James Silverton
Thanks to all who have written to us about the technical content of Linux Journal. One thing that needs to be said up front is that it is unrealistic to think Linux Journal or any magazine will please everyone. Those who find a particular article boring should keep in mind that for every article that you may feel is beneath you, another person finds that particular article the most useful and views your favorite technical article as incomprehensible. The Linux universe does not revolve around only one type of reader.
Some of you may have noticed that we occasionally include some less-technical end-user content, because a portion of our readership appreciates it and benefits from it. We try to pick more advanced end-user topics, however, rather than basic point-and-click tutorials. Ironically, with respect to James Silverton's suggestion that we include content from TUX in Linux Journal, that is the only category we consciously try to avoid—"new desktop user" content. Our sister magazine, TUX (www.tuxmagazine.com), targets that audience very well.
Aside from including a variety of content, the only conscious shift we are making is to focus some of our more technical content to provide readers with information they can apply in practical ways, not just for our readers' amusement, but so they are better equipped to do their jobs. Having said that, we certainly do not believe that articles for your amusement and instruction are a bad thing. We understand that purely academic articles are desirable, interesting and have long-term benefits. So, we'll always include them. We simply need to strike the right balance. You can help by keeping your letters coming. —Ed.
I'm trying since yesterday to about:config and the only thing that shows up is this http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8004 , the list doesn't show up... Would you, please, help me with this problem?... I am not a Linux user ... but I hope you can help me as well...Please, let me know what is happening with this...Thank you...
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Tag: women's rights
University acquires newly discovered collection of Susan B. Anthony letters
94 years ago with the formal adoption of the 19th Amendment, women won the right to vote. Now, a newly discovered collection of Susan B. Anthony letters will help show how. The letters were written by Anthony to her "most cherished young lieutenant" Rachel Foster Avery.
Another factor said to sway judges to rule for women's rights: a daughter
It turns out that judges with daughters are more likely to vote in favor of women's rights than ones with only sons. The effect, a new study found, is most pronounced among male judges appointed by Republican presidents, like Chief Justice Rehnquist.
"Our basic finding is quite startling," said Maya Sen, a political scientist at the University of Rochester who conducted the study along with Adam Glynn, a government professor at Harvard.

Barry Bernstien's law office has represented me on 2 seperate occasions. Each time Mr. Bernstien was personable, exeptionally knowledgeble, tactful and responsive to my needs. He is also an honest lawyer who offers reasonable fees for complex legal cases.
This guy is just in it for the money. He takes as many cases as he can at one time and ends up sending different lawyers to represent you that dont know much about your case. He sends his "case manager" Art Cortez to your home and makes a lot of promises. Art cortez is not even a qualified lawyer just a front man to collect cash. THEY DONT EVEN HAVE A REAL OFFICE. ITS A P.O. BOX. Beware. I would not put my life in his hands again. I later paid for another lawyer to represent me.
He is the best lawyer ever! This man saved my life.
My wife's ex-husband was loosing a nasty custody battle. His only shot at getting the kids back was to claim they were being sexually abused by their step-father (me). Mr. Bernstein was hired immediately (as soon as I was contacted by the cops) to defend me and he kept the charges from ever being filed. It cost me $5,000; however what's the price of your freedom and reputation. It's much harder to defend yourself from behind bars, and bail would have cost just as much or more had I not hired a great attorney. What's a great attorney? The one that delivers the desired results!!!
Barry O. Bernstein was hired to represent me in a criminal matter that if convicted I could have received two life sentences. Bernstein was paid $30k and I was not satisfied with his performance and would urge anyone who needs a good lawyer to BEWARE of BERNSTEIN!
He has saved our sons life! thank you Barry.

Derby food hygiene ratings: Zero stars
Posted: July 14, 2014
|SEVEN Derby venues have achieved zero marks out of five after being scrutinised by hygiene inspectors.
The seven were:
Himalayan Gurkha Restaurant, Macklin Street;
Tasteez City Grill, Abbey Street;
Fenek Cafe, Pear Tree Road;
Ebi Sushi Restaurant, Abbey Street;
Mamma Mia's, London Road;
City Off-Licence, Normanton Road;
Indian Spicy Foods, Normanton Road.
ON the day a satisfied customer rated Derby's Himalayan Gurkha Restaurant 6/6 on a review website, hygiene inspectors graded it zero after finding mice droppings and scratches.
Other customers who posted on just-eat.co.uk described the Macklin Street restaurant as "absolutely fantastic", with one saying she will be "recommending it to everyone I know".
Indeed, the praise lives up to the restaurant's claim on its website that it is "probably one of the best Nepalese restaurants in the country".
But when it comes to hygiene, a food inspector who visited the premises on April 30 could not have been less impressed.
The restaurant was told to improve quickly or face further action.
Speaking to the Derby Telegraph, manager Nawa Thakuri said everything had now been put right.
He said: "The reason we got zero stars was because the inspectors found mice droppings and scratches.
"The mice had come from the flats above the restaurant and there were holes in the roof that we were unaware of.
"Since the inspection, we have contacted the landlord of the flats and had the pest control people out to deal with the problem.
"We have also had a deep clean of the whole premises and repainted everything.
"We have done everything that we can and the inspectors are coming back at the end of July and we are confident we will get five stars."
In the next street, Japanese restaurant Ebi Sushi also scored zero.
The tourism website visit derby.co.uk describes Ebi Sushi as "one of the best Japanese restaurants in the UK and one of Derby's best kept secrets".
And, on tripadvisor.co.uk, 87% of customers rated it "excellent", with one saying: "I've been going for 10 years and it is simply the best sushi and sashimi I've ever had in the UK."
But, again, the food hygiene inspector did not agree with the rave reviews.
Manager Sao Ebina apologised to customers for the zero rating but claimed it was not a true reflection on the restaurant's usual standards.
He said: "I apologise for the rating. We were inspected at a very busy time and the place was not clean.
"Usually the restaurant is clean but the inspector did not come during these times.
"The inspector found evidence of mice and this was caused by things like a broken door. The inspector gave us a list of things to put right and this was done in a week."
The restaurant was one of two places in Abbey Street that scored zero.
The other was takeaway outlet Tasteez.
Its Facebook page tells customers: "Come down tonight and enjoy our freshly cooked food. You will have a smile on your faces after."
One customer who visited 10 days before its inspection was not smiling afterwards. She told visitors to just-eat.co.uk that the food and service was "appalling".
The inspector found likewise with its hygiene standards.
No-one at Tasteez answered the phone when the Derby Telegraph made repeated attempts to contact the takeaway for a comment.
Another takeaway that scored zero was Mamma Mia's, close to the former Derbyshire Royal Infirmary in London Road.
Owner Farooq Qarim said the rating was harsh.
He said: "I had only taken over the shop a few days before the inspection and it was in a bad state.
"The inspector found mice droppings but came back two days later and was quite happy and let us continue trading.
"We've closed now for a refurbishment and, when we reopen in August, everything will be sorted."
Indian Spicy Foods in Normanton scored two stars in 2012 and has now dropped to zero.
The Normanton Road takeaway declined to comment.
The Derby Telegraph was also unable to get hold of the management at Fenek Cafe, in Pear Tree Road, and City Off-Licence, in Normanton Road. Both also received zero scores.
In total, Derby City Council inspectors visited 245 premises and awarded five out of five to 59 per cent; four of our five to a quarter, three out of five to eight per cent, two of our five to three per cent, one of our five to two per cent and zero to three per cent.

These amateur sluts got the party started in their car, and got even wilder at dude's place. They put on an X-rated show over a fan, then dropped their hot pants to enjoy a filthy foursome, and got fucked hard by the hot guys they were chilling with.
The wild teens who showed up at dude's pool party were down to try anything once, even sucking cock underwater. These whores splashed around in the pool, twerking their big asses and fucking while their friends filmed an amateur group sex porn!
These guys got everything they needed for a wild 4th of July: fireworks, a BBQ and some horny babes. Dudes rolled the camera while they partied, And when things heated up they rolled their own amateur porn as the girls sucked and fucked like nymphos....
They don't come any crazier than the amateur sluts in this video dude posted to Mofos today. The babes at his party were so DTF, they played all these raunchy sex games and took turns sucking dick before finally breaking out in a dirty five way orgy!
Why'd these two sluts bother learning how to hula dance when all the guys wanted was to see them ass naked anyway? The girls made out and flashed their perfect 10 titties, then jumped on that huge park table to pound out a nasty four-some fuckathon.
These party-girl sluts never expected the tape of their antics to end up on mofos! But you can check out these hos lifting up their skirts to flash their sweet tits and twerking their big butts before taking turns wetting down the two guys' dicks.
At the end of the pool party two nymphos stayed behind for the real fun to start! Watch this video we made of Ella taking body shots off Gianna's big booty, then getting ass naked in the backyard and fucking us like the dirty amateur sluts they are!
Right in the middle of touring a dingy apartment with our friends, the girls got buck-wild. These slutty latinas showed off their big tits and those big booties for the camera, then back at our place they got down and dirty for some epic group sex.
The amateur sluts in this clip barely needed any encouragement to act on all their filthy fantasies in the party bus. Chloe gave Zoey a raunchy lap dance, then ate her pussy, before taking turns wetting down the dicks of their two lucky guy-friends.
Our backyard party at Kelly's house got buck-wild in seconds flat! Those amateur sluts stripped ass naked and got down licking each other's cracks and pussies. They took turns sharing our cocks and moaned so loud we had to finish our foursome inside!
The craziest parties ALWAYS start with body shots. The amateur sluts we were partying with whipped their titties out, and we sipped little shots out of their belly buttons and dripped one down Maia's pussy before we fucking pounded these hos!
These rando dudes posted a video of their camping trip with the two sluttiest girls they know. They talked those amateur girls into flashing their tits and ass, and it wasn't long until those girls stripped down for an epic foursome by the water.
Lexi Davis and Brooke Wylde were getting too crazy for the St Patty's day party, so they decided to make their own fun. They got the party started with a public BJ, and then brought it back home so their dudes could fuck those amateur sluts right!
You can turn anything into a Strip game. These amateur sluts at our party were ready for any excuse to whip their big tits out and suck off all the guys. They wet down every inch of those dicks, and took turns get fucked in all their teen pussies!

I love the idea of giving a chocolate baby shower gift. Everyone at the shower should get something. It's just so classy.

Wilcox leads Washington over SLU 66-61
NOV 29, 2012 5:32a ET
Thinned by injuries, the Huskies (3-3) went just seven players deep, but had enough to overcome the Billikens (3-3) and avenge a 13-point loss last season in St. Louis.
Wilcox had one of the most efficient games in Washington history, hitting 11 of 13 shots, including 4 of 5 on 3-pointers. He just missed his career high of 28 set in Saturday's home loss to Colorado State. The Huskies avoided their first three-game home non-conference losing streak since 1994.
Cody Ellis led the Billikens with 14 points off the bench. It was Saint Louis' last game away from home before conference play begins in early January.

Canon Inc. Announces Development of 35mm Cinema Prime Lens
Canon Inc. Announces Development of 35mm Cinema Prime Lens
From Canon:
Designed for Film-Style Operation, Canon Cinema Prime Lenses Deliver 4K Imaging Performance
MELVILLE, N.Y., April 3, 2013
- Canon Inc., the parent company of Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, has announced the development of a 35mm cinema prime lens for large-format single-sensor cameras employing Super 35mm, full-frame 35mm, and APS-C size imagers. The 35mm cinema prime lens will look to join Canon's line of 14mm, 24mm, 50mm, 85mm, and 135mm EF-mount Cinema prime lenses. The 35mm cinema lens in development will look to become the sixth in the line, filling a strategic optical need between Canon's 24mm and 50mm lens offerings. As with Canon's precision-matched, competitively priced CN-E prime lenses, the 35mm lens under development will look to deliver 4K optical performance and inherit the professional operability of the existing CN-E prime lens line.
Canon Cinema prime lenses are part of the Canon Cinema EOS System of professional digital cinematography products, which also include the EOS C500 4K/2K Digital Cinema Camera, EOS C300 Digital Cinema Camera, EOS C100 Digital Video Camera, EOS-1D C 4K DSLR Cinema Camera, and four Canon Cinema zoom lenses. A development sample of the 35mm cinema lens will be on display in the Canon booth #C4325 during the 2013 NAB Show in Las Vegas, NV, April 8-11, 2013, and the lens itself is currently expected to officially launch sometime this year.
"Canon is committed to supporting cinematic culture and the continued advancement of tools for visual storytelling at all levels," affirmed Yuichi Ishizuka, executive vice president and general manager, Imaging Technologies & Communications Group, Canon U.S.A. "During the past 18 months, Canon has brought our Cinema EOS product line to market, and in that time we have introduced HD, 2K, and 4K cameras, lenses and workflow solutions, as well as structured a comprehensive service and support network for professionals in the theatrical motion picture and television markets to enable customers to create and deliver exceptional imaging content and cinematic brilliance."
