Live CDs need arebecoming very famous day by day. Knoppix is a pioneer in this category. In the past and present Knoppix was available on CDs and DVDs. All the user had to do is, insert the disk in the optical drive and restart the machine. Thats it, he can then enjoy a full fledged Linux operating system, without making any changes to his hard disk. However the CDs and DVDs have one major problem.

My server's hard drive suddenly crashed and hence my personal website www.yenodawebsite.com is down. I will be buying a new hard disk shortly and making my server run again. I guess it will take another one or two days for the website to become functional again. Krish.

At Last it has started raining in chennai. This will for sure reduce the impact of the sun. But I am noticing one thing. Rain in chennai is getting reduced every year. If this continues then at one stage there will be no rain and this will ultimately lead to drought. Its time we all act. Let us take an oath. Every family should plant one tree near their house. If this is followed then I am sure we can bring greenery back to chennai. Krish.

Internet giant Google have come up with an application to block people from sending drunken e-mails to their bosses or ex-lovers. Mail Goggles can be programmed to turn on late at night and at weekend, when users are most likely to be drinking. Before sending a message, e-mailers must answer a series of short maths questions that must be completed in a limited amount of time. Gmail engineer Jon Perlow believes the idea will help those too tired to foresee the consequences of their actions. Krish.

It used to be a real pain to install Java on most versions of Linux, but now that Sun has modified the license, there are some easier ways to install Java. On Debian/Ubuntu Linux for example all you need to do is make sure that your apt-get is pointed at the right place. In your /etc/apt/sources.list add in the following (and make sure you are okay with adding in stuff that is not in the default environment). deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper main restricted deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper universe multiverse After this have apt updates its repository sudo apt-get update And finally, just tell it to install java sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jdk After this the rest of the process will display a dialog that will require you to accept the license agreement. When you do, the rest of the setup will happen on its own. When you're on the command prompt type javac -version or java -version You should be good to go! Finally we have an easy way to install Java

It was 1st october 2008, me and my wife were getting ready to sleep. After switching off the lights my wife felt something. We both concentrated on what my wife felt and recognized that the baby inside her was actually moving. It was a very clear feeling and we were actually able to feel the baby. That moment was a great experience for us. Hmm.... really hard to express the feeling. :D . Waiting for the baby to arrive. Krish.

Guys, I got a new mobile and bid farewell to my lovable Sony Ericsson K750i. I have now acquired Sony Ericsson K660i and it will be taking care of all my future communication needs, atleast for another year. Hmmm…. Been thinking for a while to change my mobile but my love and attachment on my old Sony Ericsson K750i stopped me from doing so. I have used it for nearly a year and 2 ½ months. The joy stick was getting a little week and was not responding to my touches. I had to really put pressure to get it working and navigate to the menu I wanted. Phew… these machines never stay with us for a long time like our family members. I really feel sad to leave my gadgets especially my cell phone. So came a day when I visited a Sony Ericsson showroom and checked out the mobiles and chose the Sony Ericsson K590i and decided to buy it the next day. But on reaching the shop the next day I saw a better cell phone Sony Ericsson K660i. It was mind blowing. Light weight, slim, full internet feature, c
