Using Ubuntu 8.10 ( Hardy Heron) Live CD; Select the option "Try Ubuntu without installing on computer".<br /><br />If you have a broadband connection; just plugin the LAN connector and start browsing the internet. For storage purposes ( for files for later use ) you can use and USB media like PenDrive/ FlashDrive.<br /><br />If you have cablenet or LAN net, you can configure the connection and start using the internet. You will hav to do this everytime you boot th machine in this case. So better hiberinate the machine, it will reduce the reconfiguring stuff to great extent.<br /><br />This is a great idea when you dont have much resources and have an important work to accomplish.Sujayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06732175880543456856noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2463345257834664496.post-61348601630086786452008-08-19T07:31:00.000-07:002008-08-19T08:07:24.982-07:00Quick Wordpress Upgrade<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0Tz47N4MtHMd1IrIEKbn7hqB1D4X-gYPy4FdFPjA8XyTlLDIa-OL61pYUMjbwGN-CeUtNE30n_lxHdIEif5lqZxnVDYqcd01r9RDcTFME7nFd1kANK8PCs7E51wIWYwW2KjtOii0FQspn/s1600-h/wpress.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0Tz47N4MtHMd1IrIEKbn7hqB1D4X-gYPy4FdFPjA8XyTlLDIa-OL61pYUMjbwGN-CeUtNE30n_lxHdIEif5lqZxnVDYqcd01r9RDcTFME7nFd1kANK8PCs7E51wIWYwW2KjtOii0FQspn/s320/wpress.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5236245555213967506" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">This is what I did to upgrade one of my blogs that had Wordpress 2.3 and had to upgrade it quickly to 2.6.1, Ive found this as the quickest manual upgrade method.<br /><br />1-> Login to your cPanel and Using File Manager, Create a new folder "BackupFolder" in Home directory. Now browse to the directory public_html , or the appropriate directory if using addon domain, subdomain or directory....<br /><br />2-> Copy the folder wp-content and file wp-config.php to the folder that we just created ie. "BackupFolder". Also get a backup of your Wordpress data base using phpMyAdmin.<br /><br />3-> Now delete all the wordpress folders and files and upload the latest version of Wordpress. You can also upload just the zipped folder and extract it through the File Manager and further copy the files to appropriate directory.<br /><br />4-> Once the files are uploaded and are in place, Rename the wp-config-sample.php to wp-config and copy the database details from the wp-config.php that we saved in "BackupFolder" to the new wp-config.php file. If you are upgrading from version 2.5 or bellow, you will also have to put the api keys which you will get by visiting the link given in the new wp-config.php file. Save the changes to new Config file.<br /><br />5-> Replace the wp-content folder from the directory with the old wp-content folder that we had copied to "BackupFolder".<br /><br />6-> Now open your site... and everything must be working great. But theres a bit more to be done. Now visit your Admin panel ie. http://Your Domain Path/wp-admin<br />This will give you a messege saying your database is old upgrade it... Simply press the UPGRADE button and access your admin panel.<br /><br />Bingo!! Everythings working great.<br /></div>Sujayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06732175880543456856noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2463345257834664496.post-76577369943093875172008-06-20T14:12:00.000-07:002008-06-20T15:00:49.767-07:00Stumblehere Free Classifieds<div align="justify"><a href="http://www.stumblehere.com/">Classified Advertising</a> is the best and economic advertising medium for small and home based buisnesses where advertisments budget is very less.

How?? Well the first option, is you have RAM more then 1GB, using VM ware would be one choice but for crazy freaks like me, who want it real !!!<br /><br />Well I have always been using two operating systems ( WinXP and Linux Fedora ) on my desktop. I have always been of an opinion that dual boot might not be a healthy option for your HDD. So this is what I did to encounter this problem.<br /><br />I managed an extra Hard drive of decent capacity ( 10 GB in my case ) and this was targetted for installing Linux. I kept both drives as Master, one as primary and other as secondary. Whenever I need to switch the OS, just get into the BIOS while booting and select the appropriate HARD DISK (not the logical volume).<br /><br /><div align="justify"><div align="justify"><div align="justify">This has alsways been my choice.... just thought of sharing it with you.</div></div></div></div>Sujayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06732175880543456856noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2463345257834664496.post-63401839920219418902008-06-07T13:08:00.000-07:002008-06-07T13:10:02.113-07:00Shutdown Your WinXP System in a Hurry<div style="text-align: justify;"><span id="ctl00_MainContentPlaceholder_ctl01_ctl00_lblEntry">If you need to shut down in a hurry-or if a frozen application prevents you from shutting down in the normal ways-you can use the following procedure. Be aware, however, that you won't get an opportunity to save open documents in this case. To perform an emergency shutdown, press Ctrl+Alt+Del to display Task Manager. Open the Shut down menu and hold down the Ctrl key as you click the Turn Off command. Poof! If your computer is part of a domain, the procedure is similar. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del and then hold down Ctrl when you click Shut Down. In this situation, you'll get a warning message pointing out-quite correctly-that this should be used only as a last resort. </span></div>Sujayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06732175880543456856noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2463345257834664496.post-34227339205710554922008-05-07T13:19:00.000-07:002008-05-07T13:21:35.893-07:00Windows XP setup commandsThese options are used with the Windows XP setup WINNT32.EXE program and change the way Windows can be installed.<br />/checkupgradeonly Check the existing OS for compatibility with XP (but does not install)<br /> <br />/cmd:command_line Executes command after GUI mode of setup completes, but before the reboot.<br /> <br />/cmdcons Show the Recovery Console option to repair a failed installation.<br /> <br />/copydir:folder Creates a subdirectory named "folder" below the XP directory<br /> <br />/copysource:folder Copies source files to local directory "folder"<br /> <br />/debug[level][:filename] Write a debug log to filename for warning levels.

A parent constructor is always called to a child constructor. Like methods, constructors can call non-private constructors of its immediate superclass.<br /> Often you define a constructor that takes arguments and you want to use those arguments to control the construction of the parent part of an object. You can invoke a particular parent class constructor as part of a child class initialization by using the keyword super from the child constructor’s first line. To control the invocation of the specific constrictor, you must provide the appropriate arguments to super ( ). When there is no call to super with arguments, the parent constructor with zero arguments is called implicitly. In this case, if there is no parent constructor with zero arguments, a complier error results.<br /> The call to super ( ) can take any number of argument appropriate to the various constructors available in the parent class, but it must be the first statement in the constructor.Sujayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06732175880543456856noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2463345257834664496.post-85549711713090375902007-11-17T11:36:00.000-08:002007-11-17T12:04:03.934-08:00Changing the login screensaver for Windows XPThe screensaver that runs at the login prompt can be changed<br /><br />Click the bellow link for details and more such tips and tricks...<br /><br /> <a href="http://windowtips00.blogspot.com/2007/11/changing-login-screensaver.html">http://windowtips00.blogspot.com/2007/11/changing-login-screensaver.html<br /></a><br /><br /><br /><ul><li><br /></li></ul>Sujayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06732175880543456856noreply@blogger.com0
