im interested in improving my web designing. ive been trying to learn ajax and flash completed a couple tutorials and i was thinking about starting a project. the goal of the project is to make a banner on top of a webpage that basicly is a slide show of thumbnails. but at the same time when u click on the image that flashes by it send you to the page where u can buy a print of the image. when you hover over the banner it stops. and is all contained in its own box. i did try to use a banner slide show box b4 but it didnt do everything i wannted and at the same time it expanding the length of the webpage as it scrolled the top.i was wondering how i might get the tools and knowlege i need to acomplish my goal.
Does anyone know how can one improve his debugging skills or how can one narrow down the problem and try to get to the solution ASAP.Or rather how once should approach a problem.I know this is a bit vague question but I want to know how you people approach?
I want to design an audio chat programming in Ubuntu.So how shall I proceed? Any help on this please?I am complete novice in this topic. Currently my aim is to capture audio from microphone.
what the best free linux graphic design interface was? Possibly one from the ubuntu one software center. I tried boa constructor and it was glitchy and kept crashing. I want something very easy to use and as simple as possible as i am new to programming. I want something that also supports the major programming languages like python C++, etc and was also wondering where i could go to learn codes for python.
I am designing a KEDB (Known Error Database) which I am currently maintaining with MS-Excel. I want to develop a Web Application to accomplish this task in a more convenient and effective way. Well, you guess, the client should be happy to see how we provide support more effectively...? I want to make it ITIL-Compliant. I (optionally) want to provide the Problem and Change Management facilities within it in a way that the concerned teams and the management can find the KEDB very useful for their work also. I am going to do it entirely in PHP and JavaScript for client-side validations wherever needed.
As I am Carrying out a project to Design Social Networking Databases, I need 5 tables for designing it.My frontend being php and backend being Mysql.I need to know what are the 5 tables I can have and how to implement them.
I want to learn how to create computer software/programs. I want to be able to design them to be cross platform (Win32, OSX, Linux). I was wondering if anyone knows what kind of courses I need to take for this? And would it be possible to study by myself and learn it for free?
So a friend and I are new-ish to linux (I am reasonably comfortable with basic /etc text editing, command admin). We are, however, completely new to programming and (x)html. We have a few (what we think are) interesting ideas for dynamic websites.Ideally we would like to develop our own course of study to get to the point where we have a basic understanding of programming so that our adventures in the programming of a dynamic website would be possible. Much of what we need learn to do is the following: use daily updated public-domain data from several other sites, manipulate that data algorithmically, which would then yield updating output on our site. Here is what I would like to do:
1. learn the basics of programming with a language that would teach good code habits and fundamental understanding. 2. become comfortable with (x)html 3. learn another language for the extension of (x)html into a dynamic data-heavy website.
Question could you please suggest a way about going about 1>2>3?Ideally the language of (1) would be something that would not be "wasted" just on web design etc. As a language, C really appeals to me. However, if learning this wouldn't lend itself to being helpful in learning another language for webdesign maybe I shouldn't use it(?).If (1) weren't to be C, what language would be funadmental enough to teach good coding but also be helpful in learning (3)
Self learner developer since about 2 years, I'm trying to understand deeper how to design a database in the best and most efficient way possible.Reading about UML design, I've found this: Do not automatically add ID numbers(surrogate keys) or substitute keys to a table until you are sure that:
-There is at least one candidate key (before the surrogate is added),
-the table is a parent in at least one association, and
-there is no candidate key small enough for its values to be copied many times into the child table.
Until then, I've always did this (I mean using ID) to identify my rows.So my questions are: 1. Why should we avoid using ID to identify rows?
2. Candidate keys add some weight to our database, and this can huge if we have millions of records, so why should we use these over surrogate keys?
I currently run Ubuntu 10.04 alongside Vista. I have been looking for a few linux projects to help me learn, the two that I have thought of have been:
1. LFS 2. Something security related
As for no.2, I am interested in learning about network security, intrusion detection, system logging, firewall logging etc. And as a project I would like to work on creating a desktop box as secure as possible, then maybe testing my own box on my home network.
1. Is there a good linux distro that is designed for security?I know people often say "the distro doesn't matter, it only matters how you configure it. 2. Does everyone agree with this? As far as security, learning, etc, are all distros created equally?
We are looking for a web based, server application to manage staff skills running on ubuntu (10.04 lts). Something like we attach tags with skills to people photographs, and then when people connect to the application by means of a browser, they see a list of tags, they click on a tag they get a list of people who have that skill. Ideally, the tags should be hierarchical (for example, skill: statistics, subskill: non-linear).
I use a Mac, but do all my development on a remote Linux machine which I access over SSH. Recently I've started using X forwarding to show some of the remote machine's graphical applications in windows on the Mac desktop. For the most part, this works really well - except that the applications look terrible: huge fonts, ugly widgets. Being the Mac-using perfectionist I am, I want to try and improve the look of these windows. Is there any way of using alternative widgets in an X-forwarded application? What would I need to install on the Mac, or on the remote machine?

I am starting to get bottlenecks in the loading of webpages via squid. It is not the actual playback of video that has performance issues, this is very good. However, when a webpage is first requested, it is the initial response that takes more than a few seconds to load the page. I am wondering how to troubleshoot the issue as I don't know whether it is squid, the dns lookup, the number of users, RAM, or the bandwidth. Bandwidth seems to be the least likely since the server has a high bandwidth and video streaming appears to have no problems. I do not have caching turned on yet, which would certainly help because I do not want to cache flb, mp3, etc. files and the last time I turned on caching the performance was actually worse. The slow loading of pages has only just beguin to creep into the performance, it wasn't an issue before.
Mac and Windows Vista have such pretty user interfaces with all the transparencies and stuff. Is there anything for Ubuntu Linux to improve the way it looks?
My camera takes (QuickTime) videos with abominable sound quality. I've got one that I'd like to improve the sound quality on. What I'd actually like to do is to separate out the audio track, run some filters over the audio track with Sox, and then splice it back in. I'm comfortable doing the sox-based improvements, but have no idea how to get the sound out of the video in the first place or to mix it back in. Perfectly comfortable with winding up with a non-Quicktime video as a result, though.
1) Disable blur effect in System settings>Desktop effects>All effects.
2) Press Alt+F2 and type oxygen-settings. Then go to "animations" tab and uncheck "enable animations". Also under "Window decorations" uncheck "enable animations".
3) System settings>Application appearance>Style>Fine tuning tab. Choose "Low display resolution and low CPU"
4) System settings>Desktop effects>Advanced tab choose fastest texture filter.
5) If your desktop effect are disabled on every reboot then you'll have to disable functionality checks. Go to System settings>Desktop effects>Advanced and check "disable functionality checks".
6) If you are running opensource drivers (ati or intel cards) you could try to improve your desktop effects with updating your drivers from xorg-edgers ppa. If updated drivers doesn't work better, you could safely downgrade your drivers to official ones with ppa-purge comand.
I built my own file server based on the Intel Atom 525 and Ubuntu 11.04 (amd64):http:[url]....It has 2 2TB Western Digital Green drives connected via SATA.Internal file transfers (disk-to-disk) using Nautilus zip along at 80 Mb/sec. Over SAMBA, however, I'm getting 35 Mb/sec. Other than creating the shares, I haven't modified smb.conf.have a gigabit network. I've run atop on the receiving computer and it isn't being taxed. At 35 Mb/sec the file server is also not being taxed.
Should I be focusing on testing the onboard NIC (RealTek 8111E) in the file server or looking at SAMBA?
Is there a website builder for Fedora 12 that will allow me to design a webpage using a GUI, and then produce the relevant html code from that?I'd like something that would allow me to create, move and resize several <div>'s on the page, and update the code as well. Then allow me to drop text or graphical elements into those <div>'sAt the moment I'm looking into KompoZer, which runs on F12 OK.
I am using Ubuntu 10.04 that comes in a free CD. I would like to develop web page using Quanta Plus. When I saw the site it is written that the platform is KDE. Can I install it in my PC?
Is it possible to design virtual desktop on ubuntu, that can open instance of desktop applications installed on remote server (like thunderbird) in to local machine?
I need to design a USB diagnostic tool which can monitoring USB registers' content inside a ARM based MCU. I've already clear that how to judge the USB registers are correct or not during transmission, while I don't know how to implement such a program.Is there any similar code or existing linux module that can be used as a reference?
If there is any community or support where electronic programs exist, such as circuit design or programming of "PIC" and to record the "PIC". I appreciate your help! I am very interested as I am a student of Electronics Engineering and also Professor of electronics.
