‘Nixie’ -the Lady Gaga of Linux!

It may infuriated Traditional Linux purist..Because, Linux and sex never match also it is widely thought female gender don’t acknowledged, they are Linux users..because no body wanted to be called to be a ‘geek’, which is predominantly associated with ‘Male’ gender dominated world..

But my view changed drastically when a years agosearching for a linux tutorials, ‘Nixie’ surfaced dramatically..First i may misunderstood  her post.. because ‘you could not get away by saying’ ubuntu sucks’ and publishing in youtube, .. but she did it.. than get away unscratched.. That is amazing..Her post generated more than 4,50,000 viewer for the title’Ubuntu themes’..average 1 lakh people are viewing her post.. that is amazing,..

Some of her titles are , ‘ Go for open source or Go home”

‘how to cure Windows virus with ubuntu linux?

She is actually a game blogger, but turn her attention to Linux particularly Ubuntu that is all..

However, all her viewers has agreed on one single point without reservation..’She is too sexy.. and  distract the viewers about what she is saying’

Many of the commenter are very much making bad comments about her figures instead of Linux.. however there are some genuine Users who think she explained the hard coded linux in very Less sentence.. This is a victory for her.. She also admit this fact, Even if 10% of the viewers are converted to Linux, it is enough for me..

When asking about her dress,

I wear things that I like – that I think look good, and that I feel comfortable in. If others like it too I find that very flattering, but it isn’t why I wear it.

She is avid game enthusist but now give some of her free time about Linux

I have recently discovered the joys of Linux as an operating system, and created a little part of my site devoted to sharing my experiences with others; perhaps helping them avoid the same pitfalls I’ve made.

she has accomplished what Richard Stqallmen and Linus could not do in their 20 years, she is attracting attention for Linux in online and social network…

She is what lady GAGA to Music  to linux at now.. I wish  RMS should be ‘Nixie- the Linux Doll”

Heroes Of India!

---

To day 64th independence day is celebrated, and customary speeches delivered by the PM ,delivering a comic speech against craft.. elsewhere we remember our heroes of our independence..
but the real heroes of modern India has been usually forgotten by mass media. the whistle blower India is a rare bred of specie

Early whistleblower paid the price for his honesty and courage. Indian Institute of Technology alumnus Satyendra Dubey, a project director with the National Highways Authority of India, managed the Aurangabad-Barachatti section of National Highway 1, better known as the Grand Trunk Road. The highway was part of then Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s Golden Quadrilateral Corridor Project. Dubey suspended three engineers for serious financial irregularities. He also had the contractor rebuild a six-kilometer stretch of highway. Dubey also observed that the firm contracted to construct the highway was subcontracting work to low-skilled agencies. His complaints to higher-ups yielded no response. When Dubey wrote directly to the Prime Minister he was reprimanded for the “impropriety” of his act but went on to secure a promotion and used his additional responsibility to expose more corruption in the project. As he returned from a wedding on the night of November 27, 2003, Dubey was shot dead. His murder sparked off a movement pressing for a whistleblower law to root out corruption.

Shanmugam Manjunath, an alumnus of Indian Institute of Management, Lucknow, was a marketing manager with the Indian Oil Corporation. He had ordered the closure of two petrol pumps in Uttar Pradesh’s Lakhimpur Kheri for selling adulterated fuel.night Manjunath’s body, riddled with bullets, was found in the back of his car, which was being driven by a worker of the petrol pump.

Timeline October 2010

IN NAYAKANPETTAI, INDIA When police found Vaidyalingam Balasubramanyam’s body dumped beside a road in this southern Indian village , his family said that telling the truth had cost him his life. The hand-loom weaver turned whistleblower had been fighting corruption in the local weavers’ cooperative for the past three years.
Balasubramanyam had collected hundreds of official documents indicating that a single family held a monopoly over the cooperative management, according to Vel, who showed a reporter photocopies of the documents. The files also showed evidence of embezzlement.
“Due to heavy rainfall last year, the government sent compensation money to hand-loom weavers. But I did not get any of it, even though the records in the cooperative showed that all the weavers had been paid,” said Sukha Lingam, 40, a weaver in Nayakanpettai. “The managers ate up all the money meant for the poor.”
Balasubramanyan always carried with him a yellow cloth bag containing files he had accessed. The bag is now missing. The police registered a case of “suspicious death” after his killing and sent his body for examination. .

Time line January 2011
On a winter evening this January, Amarnath Pandey was returning home through a low-lit alley of a suburban town in India’s heartland state Uttar Pradesh when a motorcycle-riding gunman suddenly appeared and fired at him.

“The bullet luckily missed the target and grazed my ear. I felt the searing sensation in my ear and fell down,” said 55-year-old Pandey who is back from hospital but is still in a state of shock.

It was his second brush with death. A week earlier, a lorry tried to run him over.

A local coterie of corrupt government officials apparently want Pandey dead. And all he did to anger them was file an Right to Information (RTI) application inquiring about the details of a local project in which huge sums of money were reportedly embezzled.

Apart from what newspapers reported , there are many cases of suspicious death in the case of RTI activities as well as whistle blowers.. they are the real Heroes of our independence because of their courageous unselfish nature made millions of Indians still believing they are living safe in the Democratic (although corrupted )

USPTO the Bio-Piracy champion !!

Just the news are streaking, Apple just own a German court ruling, resulting thousands of Samsung Galaxy tablets sized across the EU because of violations of USPTO patents that  Apple held for its design…than my minds goback to 1995 when the first bolt come  from the USPTO that its give patemt for ‘turmeric heakings power’  Even at that time there were high out cry in India forced the GOVT to make some statement that the India will took the matter with the US counterparts.. than what happened afterwards ? Indian GOVT know that the Indian Public memory is very short.. so every thing forgeten,,,

So by curious I search USPTO patents database, and by jove! not only one patent, after the Indian Govt protest there are 41 patents granted for the same purpose of healing power of Turmeric.. One invention patented describe how turmeric paste applying external wounds healed,,even before it, 5000 BC the land of ancient Dharma has applied the same principle with scientific research amd methodology..Ancient India saw great advancements in medical science. Some of these fields were dental surgery, cataract extraction and plastic surgery. It is amazing that even in the absence of anesthesia some of the complex operations are performed. Around 800 B.C the first instances of surgery were recorded. It was considered as one of the eight branches of Ayurveda.Shushruta- Samhita is the oldest treatise dealing with surgery. The main medical practitioners were Atraya, Charaka and Shusruta.Shushruta studied human anatomy with an aid of a dead body. He had described in great detail surgery in eight parts which included chedya,lekhya,vedhya,esya,ahrya,vsraya and sivya.

India , the land of GOD was  willing to share the knowledge.. See what made western culture lead by USPTO Nazis.. they steal millions of other ideas belong to various culturew in the developing nations, India, Arabia, and chinese!!!..

Let apple and M$ come with their so called patent trolls in India, India and its public are ready to teach the USPTO and its ‘ coolies’ bitting lesson.. want to see what are they patented>

It seem whole of indian natural resources are now the property of USPTO’s patentees. the day when GOVT of India officially signed the dotted line of USPTO authority, india may have to surrender its territory as well as sovereignty to big fat USA company such as Apple and M$

Let us’BIG no” to Bio piracy champion and their Mascots who are dangerous to not only to India and the developing countries but whole of human race existence

Zorin OS what Ubuntu should be!

I am a Ubuntu guy.. but presently enjoying the Unity in one my paritition  but always search for some flexible OS than Ubuntu.. Recently it is always Linux Mint… Reasons are many.. too many friends are on Windows striods and as a friend i have to always answer their calls  restore their OS along with Linux mint.. it is the only price always asking my friends to pay.. they don’t know what dual boot is when they are offerred additional OS which can easily do all their core work in Windows.. For must of my friends are grown up adults so they don’t need any game,but need some office suit,multimedia playback music movies and songs..It is not easy to convince them to drop windows forever.. My only request to them is just try for my sake’ so they try  then pleasantly surprised, then never call me again.. Only one friend return, but that is the hardware failure due to power fluctuation …Now I found a new distro to offer to my friends.. That is Zorin OS..

Why should you consider it? Here are just a few reasons.

1. Windows like graphical UI

Much like the Ubuntu base that underlies it, It is designed especially for newcomers to Linux. It has a Windows-like graphical user interface and many programs similar to those found in Windows.

Zorin OS also comes with software including Wine and PlayOnLinux that let users run many Windows programs. The distribution’s ultimate goal is “to provide a Linux alternative to Windows and let Windows users enjoy all the features of Linux without complications,” in the project’s own words.

What this means, of course, is that Zorin OS is a great distribution for those who are comfortable with the look and feel of Windows, but still want to see what Linux is all about. Alternatively, it can be perfect for employees or coworkers who don’t like change.

2. It give easy transition to Windows Users

Zorin OS comes with the ever-popular GNOME interface familiar to countless Ubuntu users, but it also offers a number of alternatives direct from the proprietary world. Specifically, the operating system features a unique “Look Changer” program that lets users change the software’s interface at the touch of a button.

Menu bar (GnoMenu) is actually twin of Windows 7

All users need do is click on the Windows 7 or Windows XP option, for example, and their desktop looks and behaves accordingly. Premium versions of Zorin OS–targeting gaming and multimedia uses, for example–also include interfaces mimicking those of Mac OS X, Windows Vista and Windows 2000. My 3G network from Nokia %*)) Xpress Music has been recognised . See the bottom panels  notification about’ BSNL 3 G active’

3.Attraction of  GNOME

Those of us who have gotten used to Ubuntu have become accustomed to its default GNOME desktop. For those anxious about the distribution’s upcoming switch to the Touch enabled Unity interface, Zorin OS offers an option for sticking with what’s familiar.

Also like Ubuntu, Zorin OS comes pre-installed with OpenOffice, Firefox, the Evolution e-mail client, the Rhythmbox music player, the Totem video player, the GIMP image editor, lots of multimedia codecs, and more.

Seamless windows Transition!

4. It’s Fast

When speed is of the essence, Zorin OS really shines. Not only is its latest version faster than Ubuntu, its makers say, but it clocks in at a full four times faster than Windows 7. That’s pretty impressive.

With the help of Wine and PlayOnLinux, meanwhile, Zorin OS even runs many Windows apps faster than Windows does, the project says. It’s also available in more than 55 languages.

5. Not necessary to pay Windows TAX

It come with free and no need to pay windows Tax to  M$ slavery empire. You are free man here. As always in the Linux world, you can take the free  Zorin OS without committing to it until you’re ready. The Zorin OS 5 Core release is available for free download from the project’s site. Alternatively, Zorin OS 5Gaming and Multimedia releases each cost 10 euros, while Zorin OS 5 Ultimate is 15 euros from the project’s store.

6. Flying with compiz

It is not only preconfigured with compiz but fly with pre-customised option like exploding desktop

Magic land of compiz

BSNL ended Unlimited Plan in 2G & 3G Prepaid!

After scorching the 3 G War with its unlimited plans, finally BSNL is biding goodbye to it’s best selling USP.. first the Rs4200/ for 6 months was closed on 31-01-2011, now the remaining original prepaid plan Rs1499/ p.m is now ended.  BSNL does not says anything about the post paid UNlimited Rs1359/ p.m, but no immediate change  is likely to happen, since TRAI has mandated that six months time to be given to users.

1. 2G & 3G prepaid data recharge vouchers:-

MRP of RCV in	Service	Free data usage	Additional usage	Remark

1. The usage charge beyond free usage is same for Home LSA and roaming.

It is no secret some of the officers are hellpending to helping and leaking the information to other ISP , and Sunil Mittal already know beforehand BSNL is not gooing to maintaned the UNLIMITED Plans, so he confidentially  said” We are not at Price War” How rightly he is, unless he know beforehand..

In the present TOP BSNL Management, hardly anyone loyal to BSNL . all are divided between ‘ Anil and Mittal’ groups

With leadership crisis is engulfing BSNL the little satraps in the  BSNL corporate Office are running riot with introducing maddening plans, to kill BSNL revival in nearest future..

Apple and BSNL..Made for each other ?

Apple’s steve Job may be a Hero for the world Tech masses..worshipped as creator of Jesus phone by his fans,.. but India taught a important but a painful lesson for Steve Job, when his Iphone enter the Indian market Via Airtel and Vodophone partnership in late 2008 Just 20000 iphones sold (Blackmarket excluded) for the two years ranged and 90% of inventory marked for india was dumped to srilanka and malaysia..(amazingly the phones sold through black market volumes was higher than the official launch up)..Even when the ipad is a smashing hit in the neighbouring markets apple has delayed the Indian launch for almost a year..
now with a new partnership (but no tieup) with BSNL apple is reentering the indian market..
Two important reasons: except two metro BSNL has wide reach for All India basis coverage( even in MTNL area Bsnl has wide reach with roaming capabilities.. further BSNL is the only operator offer the non hindering 3 G unlimited speed by a thousand buck (Rs999)without any FUP
even when BSNL withdraw unlimited concessional plan it announced new plan for exclusive Ipad only, which raise the hope that the move is Ipad centeric policy..

see the plan details as follows:

BSNL Corporate office letter no 26-25/2010-T&C–Circular T & C-CM no.98/10-11 dt 30-11-10.

Vide C.O. Circular ref. above, the Data Plan tariff for 3G service bundling with M/S. Apple for I-Pad is to be introduced. The details are given below:-

4	Validity	One month

1. Initial validity of the plan in case of prepaid service will be 180 days.

2. In case of post paid plan, one month validity is with ref. to the billing cycle followed in the circle. For customers taking connection in between the starting and billing date, the FMC and free data usage will be calculated proportionately.

3. The tariff plans designed for bundling with iPad are basically for data service. However, if the features of voice call, video calls and SMS are available with iPad in future, the base voice call, video call and SMS tariff as applicable to 3G data plans. i.e. general 120 under prepaid and Plan 99 under postpaid services will be applicable.

1. In general the validity available with data RCVs will increase both the main account validity and plan validity.

2. Beyond the free data usage customer can use any of the data RCVs for ipad mentioned above or any existing topup coupons of 2G/3G services from which the 1p/10 KB will be deducted.

3. The free data usage will also be available while national roaming.

4. The normal data usage charges i.e. 1p/10KB will also be applicable while national roaming.

• SIM & Plan activation (i.e. starter pack) are to be done through sancharsoft only and the DATA plan denominations Rs.999,599 & 102 are to be activated through C TOP-UP, only to the iPad DATA Plan customers in case of prepaid. These three denominations cannot be used by any of our 2G/3G customers other than ipad customers.

• These iPad customers cannot use any of the existing 3G DATA RCVs.

The above Tariff plan is implemented with effect from 08.02.2011.

Whether Ipad break the Iphone jinx here?especially Indian made Notion Ink Adam daunted as Ipad’s killer, and Motorola ‘s xoom’ waiting to Zoom..

M/s Huawei’s Game plan..Destruct BSNL!!

The slow death of BSNL now gripping is not actually self implicated. But well thought and well planned before the spectrum-gate and even before the Previous parliament elections notified..crores of rupees changed hands at that time and Radia Tapes reveal it only partial..
M/s huawei is simple tools in the hands of Big power houses who wanted to destroy BSNL so it come to them at cheaper rate when it finally sold in the junk market….A profit making BSNL is beyond their reach but a lose making entity will undervalued and sold at death cheap rate..
The 3G services in entire South India are experiencing speed problem for the last two weeks. Neither the Vendor M/S Huawei nor the BSNL authorities in the corporate office (whom themselves deputation from DOT, not necessarily interested in BSNL management) are taking any corrective steps to rectify the problem. The vendor is not even acknowledging that such problem exists because BSNL management which is either unable or not willing to deal with erratic vendors. BSNL conducted various tests by using a roaming 3G SIM of another GGSN and confirmed that in Kerala NW is getting only 200 kbps speed while the roaming SIM speed was about 2 Mbps. This information has been forwarded to all higher ups including the vendor on 13-01-2011 itself. The vendor is saying that the problem with their fire wall attached to the Chennai GGSN was rectified and they don’t have to do anything further to rectify the problem and the problem is with the congestion of the two 2 GE links connecting the GGSN Chennai and the NIB core. The vendor M/s Huwaei has taken two weeks to locate the problem with their fire wall ! A similar problem was observed in the month of Dec 2010 and it took two weeks for the vendor to locate the problem. The then problem was that the two GE links were provided as active and standby mode and the problem was resolved by making the links in load sharing mode between Chennai GGSN and NIB.

In effect, the 3G service is severely affected and customers are migrating to TATA DOCOMO .The interesting part of whole the story is that the service provider for DOCOMO 3G is also Huawei?. It is wonder How M/s Huwei is helping TATA DOCOMO ?

Karnataka Circle has also pointed very slow speed on 3G data services and blackmailing by the vendor, M/s Huwaei (pl. refer the previous post)
It appears that no one is able to control the vendor from BSNL side whereas the same vendor is virtually chained by DOCOMO. This is the big difference in managerial expertise between BSNL and other service providers. For smallest dereliction, heads will roll in DOCOMO, whereas, even if the vendor holds BSNL to any kind of ransom, which generally is visible, nothing is going to happen in BSNL. Even no effort will be made to fix the responsibility.
It is a free for all situations in BSNL now!
