 How do i get the current active windows. In win32 API i have 
GetForeGroundWindow() function, and using that function, i get the current 
active window handle and pass that handle to my funnydialog as parent 

 How do i achieve this functionality in GTK+ ? Please help me.

Hi !

I see this in HCL site. Is this the one ?

http://www.hclstore.in/hcl_mileap_ml03

* Intel Celeron M Processor @ 900 MHz,
* Ubuntu Linux
* Intel 915GMS Chipset,
* 512MB DDR2 Ram
* 30 GB Hard Disc Drive
* 7" (17.7 cm) Wide (800x480) LCD
* 2 In-built Speakers
* Ports: RJ-45, 2-in-1 Card Reader, 2X USB Port,DC-IN, Headphone,
Mic-in Built-in Mic
* WiFi B/G
* 6 Cell with 4 Hrs Idle Condition, 1.44 Kg
* 1.44 Kg


Looks like price has gone down ?  (Price: Rs.11990)
But screen size is only 7"and 800x 400 res which may be little
annoying. For this price it look like a deal.

Cheers

Most of the biometric images are taken at 50 micrometer resolution or less.
It is very difficult for two people have similar biometric characteristics
at this minute scale.
any biometric for that matter,  iris, finger prints

That being the case, it is only how fast we are able to process the image
and find a match against a large
database, say covering the entire population of world, with around 6 billion
records.

Application specific asic chips are available to do this.
Purpose built systems with a large no of this ICs working in tandem can find
a match against such large database in seconds.
Further , the records are also indexed with the basic biometric
characteristics  ( like right loop , left loop, tented arch etc in case for
finger prints)

this link has some info on the current state of the science:

[Ilugc] net.ipv4.ip_forward

[Ashish Verma]

Hi,

I have two systems, 1 server and the other client.
The server has 2 interfaces, 1 in 172 network and the other in 192 network.
In the client I have configured the server as the default gateway. There is
only one interface on the client configured wiht 172 network.

Now, whether or not I set the net.ipv4.ip_forward to "1", I am able to ping
the 192 interface from the client on 172 network. *Is this expected
behavior?* There are no iptables or anything of that sort configured.

These have already been busted. They use a thin film (with the finger
print image) which covers the finger and the heat from the hand goes right
through.

Almost any netbook that is available in Chennai today:
 1. can run with Ubuntu Netbook Remix
 2. has Windows pre-installed

The counter-examples to (1) are the older Celeron-based models
that should be avoided since these are battery hogs and are slower
to boot than the Atom powered ones.

If you find one that is a counter-example to (2) then I guess
everyone on the list would like to hear about it!

People keep saying that the Arm-based netbooks will be released "any
time now" but I have yet to see one in the market or available in
India online.

The date of the entry is the problem.

  "This entry was posted on Wednesday, June 4th, 2008 at 7:12 am and is
   filed under Laptop."

This is the netbook A150 that I have and bought in November 2008.

In early January Acer announced that they were dropping the price by
Rs. 3000/-. Shortly after that the new model D250 was introduced and
the old one went "out of stock"; the new model comes with Windows
pre-installed.

ip_forward set to 1 only means the packets can be forwarded across
interfaces. In this case, the host is responding and that has been
reached via the 172 interface. If ip_forward is 0, you cannot ping
systems in the 192 network other than the host having the two cards.

That is exactly what is happening. ip_forward is set to 0. The server has 2
interfaces 172 and 192. Another system is connected to 172 and has the first
system set as the gateway. when I ping the 192 interface from the client
system, I am getting a ping response.

Hi Friends,
   we have Intel Xeon  Quad Core PowerEdge T100 processor (OS -

I have made dozens of spoofs of my own finger including thin films and

They passed through some sensors without good LFD but with good LFD they all

Yes. It should work. This is what I meant by " If ip_forward is 0, you
cannot ping
>> systems in the 192 network other than the host having the two cards."

A --B   --- C
172.x.y.z172.x.y.1192.a.b.1  192.a.b.c

I'm assuming this is what you've and ip_forward is 0 on B. You are
pinging 192.a.b.1 from A. It should work as the host B responds to the
ping and not the interface. Always the case... In common parlance, we
use the term ping the interface. In reality it is ping the host thro'
the interface.

If ip_forward is 0, A cannot ping C.

Checking against a database without any indexing would be absurd considering

indexing of fingerprints has been done, how efficient is the search? Can you

I will clear the confusion with the net.ipv4.ip_forward sysctl setting.

Routers alone do IP forwarding.

You need not run a routing daemon for that. You can have a simple
static route table and forward packets between two networks. And send
the remaining packets to the default router.

Routing is very different from forwarding.

Routing involves running a heavy duty daemon like BGP or OSPF.

And it involves discovering routes on the Internet and keeping it
upto date. Routing algorithms and protocols are very complex.

A router is defined as a node with at least 2 interfaces. Otherwise
running these daemons make no sense. Obviously routers forward
packets between different networks of course.

Whereas forwarding is different.

You can setup many networks at a home or office LAN and forward
packets based on static routes and simple route lookups.

Now to answer your question after all this digression, you don't need
this sysctl for forwarding/routing for ping to work.

You are barking up the wrong tree.

Normally it is very rare that you set this sysctl. You do it if you are a
 firewall or a proxy or if you are running squid.

EEEPC comes with Xandros but you can get it working on any Linux
distribution. The latest models require third party modules to get the
wireless up and running but this is hardly going to take a few more mins.

Acer Aspire One with comes with Linpus, a derivative of Fedora. Plain
Fedora works fine.

Dell Mini - Comes with Ubuntu but the Intel driver has some proprietary
components that makes it a hassle to upgrade or switch to another Linux
distribution. I don't recommend it at all.

Can't give you recommendations on where to buy these in Chennai though.

Hi !

This is very true .

http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/1530558/ubuntu-broken-dell-inspiron-mini

Bottom line is , no netbook /laptop manufacturer supports Linux as the
main distribution due to pressure from the big brother. (
http://www.itwire.com/content/view/25275/1141/ )

And distro makers can not support all the available netbook /laptop
models. So the end user is left to tinker with the linux
netbooks/laptops  on their own and depend on forums or their local
linux guru !

This is not totally true at the moment. As far as I know, Ubuntu
Netbook Remix and Moblin work on a number of different Netbooks
(at least Acer Aspire One, Lenovo S9/10 and MSI Wind) without any
serious tinkering --- just follow the instructions on the web site(s).

One of my colleagues even installed MacOSX on the MSI Wind --- but
that _was_ serious tinkering!

Kapil.

Good question. ;)

Let us see if anyone answers it.

There is automount in Gnome, KDE and other graphical
environments.

There is no concept of autoplay I think.

An app will open the files in the CD for you.

The problem is expecting linux to behave like Windows.

It does not make any sense in many situations.

For the sake of list members, please do not reply to digests and that
too with such a gawky subject line.

You need to set up the Linux machine as a gateway with NAT for this to
work. Am assuming the Linux machine will be connected to your external
link. You do not need squid unless you want to exercise control. If
you want squid to be used on the same box for web browsing but NAT
other connections, then you'll have to set it up as a transparent
proxy using iptables redirect. Look up howtos in www.tldp.org

Rare for me to reply to my own msg. Missed adding something.

Lets say a system has 2 interfaces in 2 different subnets like what
the OP has - 192 subnet and 172 subnet. The IP address of the these
interfaces is local. Thus, any packet arriving with any of these
addresses as the destination, irrespective of the interface it comes
from is processed in the local path. A packet arriving via the 172
address interface with destination IP being that of the 192 address of
the other interface on  the same system will be processed locally and
does not need forwarding to be on.

Not unless you have a proxy running for ping on the machine common to
the two networks.

How is that? Is ICMP a non-IP packet for it to be routed even if
ip_forward is 0?

Let us address this specific question. I read what you are saying as -
A can ping C via B using static routes on A and ip_forward to 0 in B?

A-B-C

That is wrong. When a packet arrives to a box, if the destination is
not local, the packet should be forwarded. This forwarding will happen
only if the ip_forward flag is set to 1.

OP has also remained silent so far on whether his question was answered.

So install the MYSQL server using the command

Try this, the problem will be resolved.*

Good question. ;)

Let us see if anyone answers it.

There is automount in Gnome, KDE and other graphical

That's quite right, as far as I know. However, if I'm not mistaken, the Gnome 
Desktop (or rather the nautilus file manager) will pop up a prompt if it see an 
autorun.[sh|exe] file on the CD.


hmmm ...after a quick glace at gconf settings[1], I see that nautilus has some 
gconf keys named /apps/nautilus/preferences/media_autorun_*. You may want to 
google for those.


double hmmm ...after looking at the nautilus preferences (Open a File Manager 
window -> Edit -> Preferences -> Media), I see an option where one can configure 
'what happens when inserting media or connecting devices to the system' ...which 
also lists 'Software' ...but like all things Gnome, there is no clue what 
'exactly' that would do, instead you are left to make guesses about what that 
means for 'an average desktop user' :)


So, you answer the question -- you cannot be sure the CD you create will 
autoplay in linux. However, _if_ the user uses Gnome, _and_ is using it's 
default file manager (Nautilus) _and_ has not changed the default preferences, 
there will be a prompt shown to the user asking whether the autorun.sh file 
should be run.


HTH,
cheers,
- steve
