to make my printer (hp4000) work on gutsy i had to boot an old ubuntu live cd 6.10 and test it there (add new printer )

with the folowing config Manufacturer Hp, Model 4000, Driver hpijs , Connection Part Port #1 (Epson)
the last line seems to be very important

Then i deleted my /etc/cups from gutsy and copied all the /etc/cups directory from 6.10

I will see later what is the difference between the two configs

Sencer.de: Welcome Claws Mail, Goodbye Thunderbird [updated]

[I kinda start to hate the thunderbird for it's slowness , also i use no extension so for me the jump is easy if i pump my emaisl to the claws mail , I used it before and it rocked , it was very very faast
and did i mention that you get rid of 2G limitation for the inbox folder from the thunderbird ? you can put emails in MailDir format with each mail in it's own folder - this is the best way no more inbox corruption ]

What made me switch was the responsiveness of Claws, and the reliability (from what I can tell with my little experience). And both of those points have actually been my major peeves with Thunderbird (which is sort of funny, because I remember similar motivations when migrating from an out-dated outlook to thunderbird in the first place a few years ago)

Finally: an easy guide to Compiz on Xubuntu 7.10!

Time to enable compiz on my hardy :P With Xubuntu 7.10, installing Compiz no longer pulls along half of Gnome. However, there still was a lack of guides on the internet describing how to install Compiz on Xubuntu, so I've written one.After all, why shouldn't Xubuntu users be allowed to enjoy the bling? Have fun :)

Alternate way to compile AMR Codec Libraries for GNU-Linux into ffmpeg

This is a home page or amrnb and amrwb libraries, based on the reference implementation. I created it to prevent ugly embedding of the same code to many Open Source projects and to maintain patches and fixes for it.

Alternate way to compile amrcode libraries
is to download the scripts from bellow and then add the copile flags for ffmpeg from svn (or you can install it all in /usr and add no extra flags)
--enable-libamr-nb --extra-cflags=-I/opt/libamrnb/include --extra-ldflags=-L/opt/libamrnb/lib

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=178455


I will modify my compile scripts and see how it works
cat ffmpeg_checkout.sh
svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg
cat ffmpeg/configure.sh
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-libamr-nb --enable-libamr-wb --enable-libogg --enable-libvorbis --enable-libgsm --enable-libxvid --enable-liba52 --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libx264 --enable-libtheora --enable-libfaad --enable-gpl --enable-shared --enable-pthreads --enable-swscaler
 cat mplayer_checkout.sh
svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk mplayer

mplayer is configured with --prefix=/usr

also don't forget to install the full code pack
http://www3.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/all-20071007.tar.bz2
into /usr/lib/codecs

mkdir /usr/lib/codecs/
wget http://www3.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/all-20071007.tar.bz2
tar -jxvf all-20071007.tar.bz2
cd all-20071007
mv * /usr/lib/codecs/

cd mplayer
./configure --prefix=/usr
make install

Using Git for Samba Development - vs OOPS i deleted the svn server

In the future (at reea maybe)
we can use  an true distributed VCS like GIT/Bazaar/Mercurial

http://bazaar-vcs.org/
http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/

http://ianclatworthy.files.wordpress.com/2007/10/dvcs-why-and-how3.pdf

Many projects like samba and mozilla are switching from svn to something better and distributed (no SPOF)
