for a depressing read in german...

by Eric Dondelinger

Hi, http://www.spiegel.de/netzwelt/technologie/0,1518,347080,00.html http://www.spiegel.de/netzwelt/technologie/0,1518,347074,00.html I just got to read these in Spiegel Online. It makes one wonder... I sure found a lot of factual errors in there. Somewhat better: http://www.manager-magazin.de/it/cebit/0,2828,344582,00.html Greets Eric

Request for help

by Pascal Steichen

Hi all, As most of you might know I'm working at the mineco where we have a very nice project called CASES (http://www.cases.lu/) about awarenesss raising in IT security. We want to be vendor independant (legal obligation as government) and as such attach our best practices with "real life" examples. However at the moment we only have the M$ world represented (see http://www.cases.public.lu/pratique/solutions/index.html) still seeking for people providing use with screenshot procedures from the GNU/Linux world. For this we thought of using SUSE and a Fedora as model GNU/Linux systems. If anyone (or his company) here on the list would be interessted to do this job, we would be very glad ;) N.B.: However this will be a no-remuneration job, all we can provide is "advertising" via a CASES-partner thing ! So if one could do this on behalf of LiLux it would be great, cause then we (LiLux) would be linked on one of the biggest gov sites here in Lux ;) Hope you could tease some of you and I'm looking forward for proposals ;) ciao, -- Pascal Steichen pascal.steichen(a)lilux.lu Lilux ASBL http://www.lilux.lu/

GPL questions

by Paulo Ribeiro

Dear all, A collegue of mine came accross an application that uses openssl/gnupg (that's what the commercial told him). But on their website, we couldn't find anything related to the GPL or to openssl/gnupg. Also, the application isn't available for download. I have a few questions in regard to this. - Is this in agreement with the GPL? - Don't they have to mention they are using openssl? - In what extend can they use it and no more need to tell people about it? For example, if they modify the source can they redristibute without making their product availbe for download? Thanks for your answers :) Paulo __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Firefox

by Alex Loes

Hi I use Firefox 1.0.1 and whats makes me crazy is the fact, that it opens a new tab while clicking on the mouse wheel. Since this mouse is a devilsoft one, the click on the mouse wheel behaves too easy and when I read a text ion the net, I scroll using the wheel, and the browser opens a new tab, indicating an error message. That isn't funny anymore and begins really annoying. How can I turn off this behaviour? Al

ubuntu installation report

by Kymon MacDaire

greetings, i tried ubuntu (warty warthog), and got pleasantly surprised by the ease of installation. no problem with the usb mouse (unlike debian woody), nor with the network device (unlike debian sarge which got caught in a loop, detecting my network device over and over again) and no problem either with the dvi connection of the lcd monitor (unlike fedora core 3 which suddenly went black during install or even knoppix, which only worked in framebuffer mode). as ubuntu is based on debian, i really wonder why it didn't have the same problems during install, maybe because of different versions of the installer. if you have a slow internet access, the over 100 MB of updates it downloads after installation can be painful though. unlike suse 9.1, it didn't automatically mount the windows partitions that were on the same hd, but ubuntu did recognize my usb stick automatically, something suse failed at. from my personal experience, ubuntu has been the easiest distro to install i tried yet. if others had similar positive experiences with ubuntu, i guess it could be added to the list of recommended distros for linux newbies. best regards, kymon
