After the video of WoW , I propose today the trailer for the upcoming Starcraft II.

The first version of the game held in suspense generations of players, so here are the notes that appear to its promises.

Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex, was just released Release Candidate and this 6 days before the official release of the final version. This is the last test version available to last-minute tinkering.

It incorporates a new version of Gnome, a new theme (which is not the default) but that seems to rage on the canvas, a new version of Xorg and finally a new kernel.

If you want to download from t presented this version of Ubuntu, please visit this page . Know that even if you install it in advance (aujourd'hui'hui it may be too soon), you will not need to reinstall Intrepid Ibex at the exit of the final version because updates automatic system to hand over your level.

It may even be a good idea if you wish to avoid the congestion of servers on the day of the release.

It is not unusual in companies, universities or government that the user does not have the necessary rights to install programs. Here's how to install Flash Player for Firefox without admin rights:

At first it is necessary to download the latest version of Flash Player.

Then you have to unzip the XPI. For this you can use 7zip , WinZip, WinRar or any other compression utility. 7zip for the benefit of existing in a portable version , allowing to switch from a facility (which would not have worked because no rights).

Recover files and flashplayer.xpt NPSWF32.dll.

Copy them, then in the directory where Firefox is installed.
(Ex: c: \ \ repertoire_d_intallation_de_firefox \ \ plugins \ \)

Finally, restart Firefox and voila!

(Ps: for those who do not have access to the famous plugins directory, then download Firefox Portable and use the plugins directory of the latter!)

You dreamed of adding beautiful fonts to Ubuntu? Here's how!

Nautilus (file browser), go to your home directory: / home / username

Then press Ctrl + H to display hidden files. These are easily identified because their names start with a point. To hide these files again, simply repeat the Ctrl + H.

Check that the folder ". Fonts" exists. If yes, skip to the next step if not, create a directory named ". Fonts." Do not forget the 's'.

Finally, copy inside your TTF fonts.

For the addition to be effective you must restart the application in which you want to use the police if it was already launched.

Blogasty is on strike! The Digg-like French wishes, through its creator Christophe Lefevre, protest against the "automatic vote":

Blogasty fact STRIKE against the abuse of the operation of Digg-likes in order to receive more traffic on his blog.
You vote for the articles of your friends.
OK, no worries, I do it but please, look at what you click!

Do not vote for an article of 3 lines with no interest!

I ask the general strike of 24 hours of digg-likes, if like me, you want to find the news interesting on their homepages.

This is the message that you can now read on the homepage of the site. It is indeed not uncommon to see some influential bloggers use social networks to skyrocket their articles on the home page and to the detriment of less well-known blogger.

To recap, the principle of a Digg-like is to provide information, for which visitors will vote if their content is interesting.

Thus the information collected with the most votes are on the front page, assuring their author a high traffic on his website / blog.

And bloggers can submit an article, but not limited to: any user who found a good info can make it available as many.

Personally, I do not publish my articles on several Digg-like and on Twitter as to make them known. It is then up to each judge their relevance. Thus, I see occasionally a traffic peak, but the vast majority of my visitors come from search engines.

If you wish to review the question please.

I just found this very interesting initiative: Go to GNU / Linux . This is actually a very simple website with what Linux is.

The site is open to all novice computer and thus the world of Linux and free. You can find an overview of what Linux is, a page explaining the advantages and disadvantages of Linux over Windows.

Finally, for users seduced, one page is devoted to various ways of migrating to Linux. The site offers you to choose a distribution and the different ways to try it (Live CD) and install it.

It includes of course Ubuntu.

So if you want to discover or discover the world of Linux to someone, this is THE site to visit .

Certainly, the literature is not very popular with the fashion, nay, this tidal wave of texting lying on the canvas, but I offer here a little sweetness in this cruel world.

This is a real digital library, packed with free ebooks and free. They are often works in the public domain, so obviously a little old, but it does not hurt to review the classics.

Thus, you can be enchanted by the tales of the Brothers Grimm or mingle with the plebs of Rome with the Gallic War by JC, Julius Caesar said.

Thanks to technology, literature is at your fingertips, so enjoy it, that's where !

Logstalgia can view queries against an Apache server by analyzing the logs. The small enough fun is that each query is represented by a ball that bounced when she was treated.

In fact the graphics are reminiscent of the famous Pong . But look at this rather small demonstration video:

Logstalgia to download, please visit this page . You will find, among other things, a. Deb for Ubuntu (or Debian). Also note that this package will be available in the universe repository of Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex.

In terms of use, is simple:

logstalgia /var/log/apache/access.log

Personally, I would love to have as many queries on the blog ... so please, do the fart meter!
