linux, zenwalk
Simple steps to make Zenwalk works like magic...
1. Upon initial installation, go to Netpkg and select the
snapshot repository. Then update all the packages as
necessary. If you want to upgrade your kernel, make sure
to type lilo -v when is completed as root.
2. Set up your Firestarter firewall.
3. Go to your command line and install:
-netpkg jre
4. Also, I would install Google Chrome right away...

5. I like gslapt and add the following repository:
-http://darkstar.ist.utl.pt/slackware/addon/slacky/slackware-13.0/
6. For some reason, gxine is the only dvd player that works in my system.
Install gxine using netpkg.
7. Codecs: Use gslapt to install libdvdcss.
8. For security, I like mcrypt and ccrypt.
9. Install also src2pkg and sbopkg to built your own .tgz packages.

10...This is all...for now. Enjoy Zenwalk!

linux
I installed Fedora 12 on a Dell laptop for a friend and I got everything to work fine. My only complain is that openJDK and Chrome do not match. Only Firefox and Opera browsers are compatible with it. But, overall, Fedora looks solid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SVN tunneling through HTTP proxy
I don’t know in your university, but in mine I still cannot use version control system cause we have an HTTP proxy and only HTTP traffic is allowed.
I want my system to be ever up-to-date and sometime this means to use development software. Today, for example, I wanted to build KDE from SVN.
Usually set http-proxy-host and http-proxy-port into ~/.subversion/server was enough, but today with this method I got a nice “Permission denied“.
The alternative method is to setup an SVN tunneling through the proxy:
First, you need perl-libwww from [extra] repository and perl-net-proxy from AUR.
Open a terminal and launch:
$ connect-tunnel -P proxyhost:proxyport -T 10234:svnhost:svnport
Now, keep connect-tunnel running and checkout svn in this way:
$ svn co svn://localhost:10234/svntrunk
All should works. Good luck!

linux
I have been spoiled by Mandriva Linux and it is getting difficult to return to my ancient roots....not good!
You can go from easy to advance level in 1 second. I already started writing python scripts for a project and Mandriva shines!!!

baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/f$releasever-$basearch/atrpms/stable
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY.atrpms
enabled=0
priority=150
[atrpms-testing]
name=ATrpms - Testing
baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/f$releasever-$basearch/atrpms/testing
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY.atrpms
enabled=0
priority=150Then
rpm --import
http://ATrpms.net/RPM-GPG-KEY.atrpmsand {example}
yum --enablerepo=atrpms install acidrip
--livna repos--
su -c "rpm -ivh
http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release.rpm--
For Google, create google.repo and type:

linux, mandriva
Love it! I am taking a break from Arch and Zenwalk for a while...
I tried Fedora 12 and I liked it but I found Mandriva a lot easier to manage. Also,
java was a lot easier to configure with Mandriva. Google Chrome works to perfection
plus it seems that the Mandriva packages don't break down like the ones from Fedora.
Nothing personal against Fedora...
