Stack Smashing Protection for Debian
by Steve on 2006-06-23
Since we last covered the use of Stack Smashing Protection
(SSP) the default compiler for Debian Sid has been upgraded to include it, with no need for custom patching. Read on for a brief demonstration of how it can be used to prevent attacks.
The default C compiler for Sid, which will be used in Etch too, is GCC v4.1. This releasecontains the SSP patch which previously needed to be applied manually (we demonstrated applying this patch for GCC v3.4 a long time ago).
Since the SSP patch is included in the compiler by default it is suddenly a lot easier to start working with it.
ColdFusion 7.x Installation on Debian Sarge (3.1r1) Linux
by Oğuz Demirkapı on 2006-01-10
Because there is not any documentation about ColdFusion installation on Debian over internet. As you know Debian Linux is not supported officialy by Adobe. But Debian is one of the mosts used and well known Linux distribition for specially server usage and I think there would be some other people who wants to use Debian and ColdFusion together.
Build a Home Terabyte Backup System Using Linux
by Duncan Napier on 2005-11-29
A terabyte-plus backup and storage system is now an affordable option for Linux™ users. This article discusses options for building and configuring an inexpensive, expandable, Linux-based backup server.
Hacking OpenSUSE
by Jem Matzan on 2005-12-02
There's more to SUSE Linux than simply installing it and going to work. To get the most from the operating system, you'll probably want to do some post-install fine tuning. This article by Jem Matzan explains how to: add download sources to YaST; install the Mozilla Thunderbird email client; add support for Java, Flash, Acrobat, Windows Media, MP3s, and RealMedia; play DVDs -- and more. It serves as a useful supplement to Steven J. Rosen's excellent how-to, "Installing SUSE Linux 10 on a Laptop," recently published here on DesktopLinux.com. Enjoy... !
Adding Windows Fonts in Linux
by All about Linux on 2005-12-02
Unlike past times, Linux do come with good fonts. And the font rendering can be made better by choosing to antialiase the fonts. But at times you come across a website which has been designed with the windows user in mind. Such websites are best viewed with one of the windows fonts. If you have windows OS installed on your machine, you can copy the essential fonts from the windows partition to linux and use them to get a better web experience.
Linux kernel Compilation
by Hardik on 2005
One of the best things that Linux offers to its users is that it gives u the ability to recompile the kernel. But there are some newbies which thinks why I need this?
or why should I go for this complex and dangerous procedure?
or why bother when we install linux and it does everything we need?
The short answer is that today probably u don't need this, but here are couple of situation in which u might need to recompile the kernel.
For example some version of Linux are compiled to run on a 386 machine. So if you have P-III then you are unable to take advantage of extended instruction set of P-III. Believe me or not but when the first Mandrake distro came out then it is nothing but a literal copy of the Red Hat Linux which is compile to run on the Pentium (which is perfectly legal under GNU-GPL). But today most of the installations have routines to determine which processor u have and then install the appropriate kernel. But still you need to optimize the kernel, as your need. For example you might want to optimize the services, networking, SCSI and others according to your needs or another reason is that you want to stay up to date with the latest kernel realease. So read on.
BitTorrent for Linux
by Mark Sobell on 2005-09-13
The BitTorrent protocol implements a hybrid client/server and P2P file transfer mechanism. BitTorrent efficiently distributes large amounts of static data, such as installation ISO images. It can replace protocols such as anonymous FTP, where client authentication is not required. Each BitTorrent client that downloads a file provides additional bandwidth for uploading the file, reducing the load on the initial source. In general BitTorrent downloads proceed more rapidly than FTP downloads.

Linux In a Windows Network with SAMBA
by Mark Rais on 2005
Integrating Fedora™ Linux into a Windows network™ is reasonable and easy as long as you use the SAMBA utilities. I share every main step necessary to implement such a SAMBA server within a Windows™ environment. Once integrated a Linux™ server looks and acts exactly like any other server on a Windows intranet. You will have the ability to drag and drop files, view server contents and directories using Windows™ File Manager, and even edit files on a Linux™ server from any Windows™ desktop.
Installing Fedora Core on the Mac mini
by Colin Charles on 2005-05-07
The Apple® Mac® mini is Apple's latest offer in the arena of groovy computing. It also serves a Linux geek's bliss: it sports an affordable PowerPC system in a small, quiet, stackable, and attractive case.
Models available from Apple currently ship either with the 1.25GHz or 1.42GHz PowerPC G4 processor and with 40GB or 80GB of disk space by default. It comes with a Radeon 9200 32MB video card and a standard of 256MB of RAM (which can be upgraded). Options for Bluetooth® and Airport® Extreme exist, however the latter will not work on Linux. Note that it only has one memory slot, so upgrading the memory is recommended at purchase time.
ATI Linux Display Driver v8.14.13
by Michael Larabel on 2005-06-09
Earlier in the day ATI™ released their new Catalyst 5.6 drivers. These new Windows drivers offer such new features as mobile support, an improved Catalyst Control Center (CCC), re-vamped Catalyst AI for gamers, and several other intuitive features. However, we wouldn't be bringing you this article if there wasn't anything to share about the Linux side of things. Today we have a look at the entirely new ATI Linux driver installer and ATI Control Panel.
NVIDIA CoolBits For Linux Guide
by Michael Larabel on 2005-06-04
A few months ago here at Phoronix
we published an article entitled The State of Linux™ NVIDIA™ Overclocking
, which expressed our views of the overclocking options available, or there the lack of, to Linux™ NVIDIA™ users. Up until this time, NVClock has been one of the only utilities available to overclock your NVIDIA™ based graphics card under Linux™, without using a BIOS editor. However, when we last tested the NVClock 0.8 CVS we still experienced several problems when paired up with some of our latest NVIDIA™ 6XXX and FX graphics cards. Although Thunderbird has done a phenomenal job, and continues to do a magnificent job developing NVClock, there still is a lack of overclocking options available for NVIDIA™ Linux™ users. NVIDIA™, however, has released its new drivers that include some interesting features. In addition to Xinerama™ and OpenGL™ 2.0 support, CoolBits also accompanies this latest package. For those who haven't heard of or never used CoolBits, this is a NVIDIA™ overclocking utility for Microsoft Windows™ (until now) which could be enabled by a simple registry tweak and allows the user to substantially increase their VPU and memory speeds. However, does this CoolBits Linux™ port offer the reliability of its Windows™ counterpart and fix the issues that NVClock has yet to address? Today we have a short guide on how to enable CoolBits with these new NVIDIA™ drivers (1.0-7664), how to change your core and memory speeds, and the results we obtained when using the CoolBits utility.
How to share a local printer on Linux with Windows using Samba
by Thomas Chung on 2005-02-02
Recently, I've purchased a new Ethernet Broadband Router with a built-in four-port switch plus a print server from D-Link™. According to its manual, it says I could share my local printer by installing a print server software but it says it 'works with Windows™ Operating System Only.' So I wonder, is there any way I could share my local printer (Epson™ Stylus Photo 820) attached to my Linux™ Box with Windows™ using Samba™ instead? The answer is Yes!
Internet Sharing using a linux box
by bobcares on 2004-12-22
The computer world was similar to all of us having an apple each till some time back. And then the wise men from the industry made networks. Ideas started flowing all over and soon came in the internet. The internet has been the best thing that has happened to the computer world so far. It has created a platform where we can share our ideas.
CLI Magic: Hdparm and the Zen of data transfer
by Joe Barr on 2004-12-20
There is a place for the GUI and its cocoon-like protective services, grasshopper. But at times it stands between you and enlightenment like a pit of sticky silly putty on the path to grokking your hardware. Take your hard drive, for example. If you ever want to go mano a mano with your IDE drive, especially an older model, you need to shed that GUI like a snake molting its skin and meet me at the CLI, where we can talk about the magic of hdparm.
