Romance / Re: When Guys Say I Love You by Ralvy(m): 8:57am On Jun 04, 2010
You know I always frowned at people being ill-mannered but I think you deserve all the foul language for flaunting your stupidy with conceit. I will "never" be like you, and will only say "I love you" when I've got a deep sense affection and passion for the girl concerned. You should really check yourself!
Phones / Re: Lets Talk Android by Ralvy(m): 8:46am On Jun 04, 2010
You know, last I checked, google still use to return search results wink Android is an Operating System like Maemo (soon to be Meego) and a bunch of others. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_(operating_system)
Google don't have a phone of their own, but you'd find the OS on many HTCs. I've heard that HTC has built a phone according to Google's (Android Developer's) specs. but that's about it.

Haba, You think I downloaded 400MB on my phone? Ofcourse it can be tethered, I haven't tested the newest DM that supports tethering, I've also tried tetherberry on windows and it finished my credit.

On ubuntu Linux, I use "berry4all" and it works fine but only in Edge, can't tether in 3G. I'm assuming it's a bug that I have to find a fix for, I've heard that the berry4all devs will get a PPA soon where a later release will be uploaded, I'm hoping it will contain the 3G fix.

@Sayso, it really depends on your use, 100 mb can take you for a month, you shouldn't pay for 100MB and stream / download videos / songs, leave auto updates enabled, etc

@Honsule, even if we upgrade to 6G (when that is available), it wouldn't really make a difference if the bandwidth is still poor. 3G as it is can deliver way more than they're currently giving us.

I feel your pain, TheBuilder. I've never even tried Etisalat although I tried to surf with it once on my sister's  and page loads were painfully irritating. MTN still remains the best for me.

If you're tethering, ofcourse downloads will be possible on a PC. Using the mobile browser, it depends on the phone model really, if it's a browser that supports downloads then you're good to go, else you might need to install a browser like Bolt, or Opera.

So Zain has a 1GB limit, with MTN it's unlimited. As regards the MTN Wap browser, it's not their fault really It's just the way BIS was set to be activated on their network. I'm using BIS on MTN and it's awesome, I'll try to write a few guides for people new to BIS on MTN later.

MTN has been very stable for me since I activat'd BIS on my  and I have unlimited bandwidth.

Ofcourse, Jst send the applicable activation code, but I don't see the point unless you want to tether?

I'll be honest here, I'v not had any problems on my  Bold 9700, as regards the "hotspot browser", you just have to switch it to "Internet Browser" and all will be good. The only issue I have is "tethering", I'm not a windows user and as such can't use the BBM desktop manager, I use a Linux app called "berry4all", and I've been unable to tether in 3G mode, EDGE works perfectly but it's slow. So there's my only problem which I know I'd resolve soon,

@ ralvy how did u change that ctrl port for tortoise in ubuntu?
iv been trying to change mine for two weeks now!!!
giving port errors on all except the default

Control Port for what? Communication port for Vidalia to control Tor?
I haven’t had to change the default control port: 9051; all I did there was set a personal password instead of letting it generate one. If you cannot get Vidalia to control Tor then I suspect that Tor is already running in background (default behavior in Ubuntu) or perhaps Tor is listening on a different port and Vidalia is expecting another, or you’ve got a conflict (two services trying to tunnel data through a port), but generally speaking, it’s a good idea to check the message log to see what is happening.

Based on my experience so far, I feel you’ve installed both Polipo and Privoxy, and perhaps both are running on the same port? That is very possible and could be the root of your problems. Try to stop their services (if they exist) by:

sudo /etc/init.d/tor stop

sudo /etc/init.d/polipo stop

sudo /etc/init.d/privoxy stop


…and make the relevant changes in their configuration files. You should also update the Tor executable variable in General Configuration Settings and restart Vidalia. Either way, post the messages in your logs.

i've used evolution in the past for yahoo but i now stick to thunderbird3. its so easy to configure an email on thunderbird3. no need to know all the pop3, imap and smtp info. it automatically detects the info and configures it. all u have to do is enter your email and password. it doesnt however integrate with the new messaging menu so that is kinda frustrating. i'm sure it will be fixed soon though.

Well, Evolution was simple as pie. Configured with gmail and it automatically setup the server parameters as well. Perhaps, an update?

my advice; just borrow a flash big enough temporarily, create a startup disk, you can choose to use either your cd or an iso then from the flash you can install; at least that saves you from wasting another cd;

Evolution works for me, configured Gmail yesterday. As for your defective copies, where are you? I have all the versions so I can easily give you ISOs if you're close, I'm in Abuja.
But why don't you even try a USB install like I suggested earlier? It could be your DVD drive.

4buntu what are you talking anout? unetbootin? why are you using unetbootin? if you want to install ubuntu on a flash disk just use the startup disk creator (you will need either the ubunt cd or the image) and if you have enough free space on the flash you don;t even have to delete the files already there; unfortunately it uses syslinux/isolinux not grub but it's not difficult to figure out how to migrate grub commands to syslinux;

Got it wrong. Startup Manager works great, The Universal USB Installer from Pendrivelinux.com is a win32 app. Unless you're implying that they use Startup Manager during Live mode, but it wouldn't be a logical move seeing that they could just click the "Install" button and get done with it.

I use Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool (available at: store.microsoft.com/Help/ISO-Tool)
You can have it download the .ISO or you can point it to the file.

NB: did u guys burn this thing on a cd or a dvd?
the iso is like 699.48mb, that cant fit on a cd!!
cant share dvds to my disciples o, even my test machine sef does not have a dvd rom, how una manage?

Unless it's for distribution, you can boot from a USB. That's how I've installed all my Linux distributions (including Lucid Lynx) and all windows installations as well. I just use different tools for windows and Linux. For Linux, I use Universal USB Installer (available at pendrivelinux.com), with that you can run a Linux Installation in less than 8 minutes, depending on PC specs, of course.

Serious management today. It's raining and so there's very bad whether, most likely why.
