I've created a few weeks ago a script which will enable you to easily package TSM 6.3 for Ubuntu 12.04 (aka Precise Pangolin)


The source is on github.

features are:

• init scripts for "dsmc sched"
• create launchers for dsmj (GUI) and dsmc
• dsmc and dsmj can work with usual user (not only root)
• not anymore dependencies to oracle-java (thanks to IBM)

VeryLongScreenCable : a new freenx name

Hi everyone,
As a true lover of the freenx work, I'm pleased to propose the following name:

Very Long Screen Cable

Let me Explain it: As a sysadmin of the Geneva Observatory, I have the duty to find words which explain in a comprehensive way what a software is for.

So I just tell them:

• Hey men, this software allows you to connect to your main station from everywhere.
• Like for instance:
• Imagine that you are at work.
• And you use FreeNX from your machine to your machine (you don't see the point.. then wait)
  
• FreeNX is just like the cable of your screen, nothing more !
  
• When you log out from FreeNX, it is like pulling away your screen cable.
• Your applications still run on your machine, But you can not see them.

And now, listen to the beautifull:

• Imagine that you have to leave your work to go home
  
• But you have to finish your job too.
  
• So now you would like to pull a VeryLongScreenCable from your work to your home to continue your work
  
• Then...
• Just use FreeNX at home, and you will get your screen back as you left it at your job
• The application will be there as if you will be at your work !
• Now... I'm sure that you do see the point... do you ? :)
  
• And unbelievably, it is damn fast and really clear.

So after some thinking, I thought that the name should contain information for non expert. I mean do you think that many people knows what does mean X.



Well, this was for the explanation.. then let's jump to the icons, yep there is also icon :)

OKay... let's check them out.

1) This one I feel it more than self explanotory, It is just a representation of a VeryLongScreenCable, so long that it turns around the earth.









2) This One, is just a play around the vlsc letters.

- I thought the the thing the more important was the screen, so that way we have a BIG 's'

- the 'c' will look like a 110/220 Volt plug at the end of the long cable materialized by the 's'

- the 'vl' are small, and give a stylish 's'



This was my big 2 cents to the new freenx project.

a big Thanks for the great job you, men, are doing.

Wireless
--------------

• To make it work, you only need the firmware of the ipw2100 which you will have to put in the directory /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware.

• You can find the firmware here:
• http://ipw2100.sourceforge.net/ >> firmware >> firmware v1.3
  

• to install it:

su - root
cd /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/
tar -xzvf ipw2100-fw-1.3.tgz

• and then eth1 will appear

Graphic Card
----------------------

• on etch, the i855resolution package get renamed into 915resolution.
• so to make working your screen in mode 1400x1050

su -
aptitude install 915resolution
edit /etc/default/915resolution with
MODE=5a
XRESO=1400
YRESO=1050

• don't forget to add the mode 1400x1050 in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
