    Installing softs of windows

    Most Windows applications won't work. What you could try doing is: a. Try running the exe under wine and see if that works b. If it doesn't, install VMware or Qemu and install Windows inside that and then install your application under Windows.

    What is better, KDE or GNOME for EDA?

    Re: KDE or GNOME for EDA? It shouldn't really matter. By the way, both Gnome and KDE don't really have a browser as mature as Firefox so you're probably best off using firefox under both environments. Regarding the SQL error, the sql statements / commands are executed on the server, so it has...

    How to run Windows applications on Linux?

    Re: Windows applications If you do decide to run Windows under VMware or Qemu, try to make it as minimal an installation as possible (ex. don't install anything unnecessary that will consume CPU cycles such as anti-virus unless you access the internet and download etc. Even if you do need an...

    How to make short cut key in Linux????

    Each window manager has it's own way. For the most popular (KDE and Gnome), you might want to have a look at this article (https://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/kdegnome). It's a good idea to read the entire article, but if you just want to know how to define keyboard shortcuts, read the section...

    I want an English/Arabic dictionary for Linux....

    Not that I'm aware of. This is unfortunately one place where it's easier to run Windows than Linux. As mentioned by Ragnarok83, try running your translation software under wine.

    Two basic Linux questions ....

    ahmad_abdulghany, what distro are you using? Providing that would help. Most distros, if they are current enough, already have automounting working as part of KDE or Gnome (so you basically just put in the USB and you'll find an icon popping up under KDE or Gnome). If you're using some...

    How to change from GNOME to KDE on Linux Suse 10?

    Re: GNOME and KDE Portland doesn't really bridge KDE and Gnome. What it does is make it easier for ISVs to integrate their applications with both desktops. "Specifically, these tools make installing and uninstalling menus, icons, and icon-resources easier for developers. They also can obtain...

    Problem with booting Linux

    Re: booting It's probably as Anno says. Anyway, to see if this is the problem, start your system and once it gives you the login termanal (CLI), log in and run the command: init 5 and see if that helps. If it then gives you a gui, then you have to modify some files to make it automatic...

    MSN Messenger for Linux Red Hat is required please

    My recommendation would be to use gaim. If you don't find packages for your distro on their download page, then you can just download the autopackage (**broken link removed**) Finally, a big plus for gaim is that it allows you to encrypt your conversations. So the person that you're chatting...

    How to change from GNOME to KDE on Linux Suse 10?

    Re: GNOME and KDE For speed, use fluxbox. The new version is also KDE compatible, so you can run KDE applets, etc. :)

    how to configure modem???

    Your problem is likely that you have a winmodem, which uses drivers to simulate real hardware. Step 1 would be to identify your modem. You can do either one of these: 1) boot up windows and find the driver for your modem 2) dmesg | grep -i modem and see if anything comes up. 3) lspci and...

    KDE and/or GNOME on CYGWIN

    cygwin start gnome Forget cygwin for the time being. If you want to learn linux, then you want to learn how to install, how to partition, etc and have an environment that you can quickly trash and start all over (or continue from a snapshot). What you really want is something like VMWare...

    User Mode Linux 2006 edition by Dike Jeff

    Re: User Mode Linux I haven't downloaded it, but it this is the book "User Mode Linux", then he's referring to a book about a linux-specific "virtualization technology" that runs completely in user mode. I've actually used UML (and still use it). It's kind of neat in that it runs entirely in...

    Linux software simulator for Windows

    Re: Software Simulator Linux Maybe you should install a complete installation of cygwin. Notice that cygwin isn't a complete linux with kernel, etc. (unlike vmware which can be considered a complete installation). You can download a rather complete version of cygwin from: **broken link...

    Problem with USB Mass Storege Device in Linux

    To know what your flash drive is called, you can do one of the following: 1) run as root: fdisk -l before putting in the flash drive and then after and you should notice a new drive. 2) run dmesg and look at the last few lines (it should tell you something like: sdb: Write Protect is off sdb...
