Mandriva current situation

admin — Sat, 11 Sep 2010 02:10:53 +0000

Much information of that has been told in recent days, the current ituation regarding mandriva isn't good.What's going to happen with the future of the company, how this reality will be reflected in us. This isn't an issue that we should think, we're just children, and we should not get these greats boots that our parents are leaving us. Only if time permits we add our two cents, or more if you can compromise.

Let's wait, this is the only think that we should remember; yes, it's an uncerain future, be patient, and prevail together, are the most important factors to continue.

In a few days we'll see what happens with the company, our community, your community, and we would move forward together.

Making a good use of password manager

Maybe you notice there 're a lot of password managers nowadays, and you may be confuse about which is secure, and which not. Well, starting, there's no-one full secure, but they give you at least quiet security, enough for a lot of environment. In this case a little program appear, named "KeePassX".

It give you the possibility to encrypt all in a master database, and only access with a master code. The complete database is always encrypted either with AES (alias Rijndael) or Twofish encryption algorithm using a 256 bit key.

I had never been a good blogger, and i let it behind, maybe because i had not totally interest of it, or maybe because i had never host it ok. That's one of the reason i must recreate it, never remove an old backup, it can be useful!!!

I hope this new blog is useful, or at least give me the opportunity to express.

Going on FLISOL!

Flisol, one of the most exciting, or maybe the most painful of the year had pass. For those who don't know what's flisol, it's an install event, in witch new users come with there's pcs to install a free as freedom OS, or maybe, just what can be. But?, why it's difficult?, well, normally the users who bring this pcs has already problems with them, with things like graphics, wifi, etc problems.

On Saturday April 24 Ardriva participated in the FLISOL made in Quilmes, and give a talk (very poorly organized from me, I do Responsible for it, but it turned out!), Some CDs were distributed, and people enjoy the event. The event didn't attract as much of People as the past year, but still was not fail, simply lacks diffusion.

Beyond that I wanted to stand out we had enough support Mandriva for this event, they sent us some cds, a lot of Stickers, and ecological pens. that there are still here, and will be really useful for the next event.

I hope those who attended enjoy it!

Greetings:)
