damn, I knew I had to mention it and still I forget to do so . I'm using Gnome.//edit: nevermind, I've just found the option . A bit strange place to put it, but right-click a file>properties and over there the 'open with' tab.

Almost 20 days since I've installed openSuse 10.3 and I'm quite happy with it (except maybe with the low a/v performance ). There is one thing tough I can't seem to change and that's the default applications. For example, atm Evince is started when I double click a pdf file, but I want it to open Acrobat Reader instead. Where can change these settings ?

limewire isn't illegal, using limewire isn't illegal either. Limewire is nothing more but a program that connects to a network that is made to share files. If you download copyright protected material, then you are doing something illegal with limewire.

My main language is Dutch (Nederlands) and I also speak English rather fluently. I do understand French, but I can hardly speak it

Nope, evil existed a long time before money existed and there are a lot of bad things happening in the world that have absolutely nothing to do with money.

1) Cost is low if you already have people that know how to use linux. Linux trainings can be very expensive.2) For server use, but on desktop things turn out differently6) Yeah, but at what cost ? Some programs are very picky on their dependencies7) There is too much to choose from8) This used to be different, believe me, installing Red Hat 6 was a real pain in the *bottom* (btw, some distro's are still hard to install).I just want to straight things out a bit, some people are so fixated on the positive aspects of linux (mac os or windows) that they start to ignore the lesser aspects and even start to think that their favourite os is perfect.

Do You Believe In Magic? Do u belive in magic =?
wutske replied to Feelay's topic in Science and Technology
Magic is nothing but a stupid word for me, something that was invented a long time ago for people who believe in everything. Some even use it as the cause of things they can't explain. If something good happens to me, I'm lucky and I continue living, if it doesn't then I just had bad luck and my life still continues ... and there's nothing that has an influence on what happens, not even magic.and brain control ... if you can't control your brain then it's definatly time you start taking some kind of pills .Don't take this personal , I'm in a bad mood so my answer might be a bit ... rough -
Small detail, but I've installed openSuse 10.3, not 10.2 ... my bad . Anyway, I'm not going to give up on openSuse, I've never done that with windows, so I don't see a reason to do it with linux . I think the flash player problem is more like an opera problem, rather than an openSuse problem.

One small detail, you have to include this php file in another file or you have to add the <html>, <body, etc ... tags.

so, that was like 1 year ago . I must admit I didn't held on to linux and I switched back to windows after a few weeks. Maybe I wanted too try and learn too much on a too small time basis. I've been thinking about installing (k/x)ubuntu on my main pc for a long time, but for some reason it doesn't like my computer very much and it runs utterly slow , so I just kept using windows. That's until 2 weeks ago when I finaly installed linux again, this time I installed openSuse 10.2 (gnome version) and made it dualboot with my existing XP. I stil can't believe how easy linux can be, how much nicer it is to use compared to Slackware. In fact, this is the very first time I realy consider making a linux distribution the main os of my pc (I'll still dual boot it with windows since there are some school programs I can't run in linux) ... that is if I can fix some annoyances. First problem is flash, it works okay in Firefox (far from perfect), but I can't get it working in opera without it crashing everytime I change a website. The second problem I still haven't fixed is that kaboodle can't play mp3s (even kaboodle-helix can't play them). I'm now using mPlayer to play my songs, but it's realy bad at creating playlists and it can't handle heavy cpu load very well . Last problem is the lack of stand-by support, sometimes it can't lock my screen, shutdown, reboot or go into hybernation and I still haven't found a way to connect to bleutooth devices . Of course, fixing these problems is something I'll do after my exams

Faq. Knowing How Digital Camera Lenses Work
wutske replied to kxrain's topic in Graphics, Design & Animation
I first look at specs, then I start looking for reviews. Reading a lot of reviews does help you to understand the specs and why good number don't mean that your pictures will look good. For example, most manufactures are bragging about their 12MP camera that can shoot at ISO3200 ... You might think that's good if you're looking for a camera that can make pictures that look at oil paintings. The more pixels/inch on the CCD or CMOS, the more these sensor are succeptible for noise. The less megapixels and the bigger the sensor, the better your pictures will look like (if you have a descent lens in front of it of course). -
They all have their positive and negative points, depending on what you want these points can make or break an OS. Windows The best thing about windows is that most people use it thus having the biggest group of people that can help you when there is a problem. The most used os also runs on every computer (you're not bound to buying a Mac) and many application (freeware, games, software that is used in companies) are available for this os. The strength of this os is 'most', but it's also it's weakness. Because it has to be compatible with most hardware, it might not get the best out of it and even have some compatibility problems (resulting in unstability and/or crashes). The security of this os isn't worse as the others, but since it's the most used os, it's also the main target of hackers, crackers and virus writers. MacOS This is the os I have the least experience with. The downside of this os is that you're bound to buying an (way to expensive) mac and that there aren't as many applications for it. The positive thing is that this os can get the best out of your hardware ... tough the build quality of the hardware has seriously degraded since Macs became popular. Linux I can probably write dozens of papers about this os, it's like a jar filled with different kinds of candy. If you say linux, you don't refer to an os, you refer to something incredibly variable. Linux is a system that runs on everything, computers, dvd-players, cars, ... you name it. If we look at linux as a desktop os, we are still talking about over 100 different kinds of os'es. They all have something in common, being the kernel (and even those differ). That is probably the biggest problem with linux, there is too many of it. You can't simply say "I'll install linux on my computer", there's a shitload of choises you have to make; distribution (package manager), window manager, cd or dvd version (how many apps do you want pre-installed), free or payed, ... Another downside compared to windows and macos is that it isn't as user friendly, altough it's getting better. I recenlty installed openSuse and it's actualy a lot easier to use compared to RedHat 6 . And that's why I selecet all oses in the list Aah crap ... I just realised that I've typed all this because I've missed the word gaming in the starters topic . In that case ... windows is the best sine it has the best graphics drivers and every game runs on it (neglecting vista of course)

I just had the magnificent idea to remove the .htaccess file from the /jovolka folder . Everything is fine now, you may close this one.

the downside of a ghost vs. a fresh install is that you end up with outdated software after a while.

Faq. Knowing How Digital Camera Lenses Work
wutske replied to kxrain's topic in Graphics, Design & Animation
If you copy text from another webpage you have to place it in between some quote tags ^_^Imho not the best article on lenses. First of all, a lens on a film camera is exactly the same as on a digital, so "Knowing How Digital Camera Lenses Work" is a misleading title. Even worse is that they only tell something about the focal length of the lens, but they forget things like the aperture, the material (plastic vs. glass), coatings, prisms/mirrors used in ultra-compacts. -
your first atempt ? holy crap ! , I'm waiting for more attempts .

If you read my sig completely you probably notices that I have both a computer and a laptop . What kind of issues did you have ? I don't have any problems with virtualpc'07, the only thing that doesn't work is drag&drop because Vista isn't a supported VPC07 host.

ooow, now I see .

Some of these things can be done in PHP using netPBM or ImageMagick, probably going to take you a long time to learn :s .
-
yeah, it's a bit outdated, I know , but it's not a target for hackers eiter ^^ . Anyway, I use a firewall only for outbound connection since I'm always connected to the internet using a router . I used to have the same problem you described, installing and removing software all the time. The best thing you can do is creating a test environment in VirtualPC, you can install, remove and change as much as you want without it posing problems. The only downside is that you can't active the virtual pc installation, so you'll have to re-install it from time to time (if you create an unattended install iso using nlite than re-installing windows is nothing but a 15 minutes background taks ).

That is realy nice , I don't know what it'll look like, but try burning out the white lines on the guy, that way it'll looks less seperated from the rest of the image .

it's not bad, but it's a bit rough on the finishing, your dog has holes in it's back . The whole picture looks fuzzy too, not like artistic fuzzy, but just lack-of-detail fuzzy, but I suppose you took the picture with your mobile phone (considering the huge amount of noise and CA ).
