Yesterday I have installed and configured Dolphin from BOONEX. Dolphin is a mature software with a superior upgrade history. The experience of the BOONEX development team is also backed by a strong customer community;

To install and configure Dolphin, we need a web hosting which supports Php and MySQL.

Flash on Ubuntu Firefox 3

Yesterday I was watching the BBC News channel on bbc.co.uk site and find flash player was not working then I have searched the Ubuntu forum how to view the flash. So many people faced the same problem. One member of Ubuntu forum has suggested that we need to download the new version of the flash from the adobe site. I have downloaded flash version 10 and unzipped the downloaded file and copied the .so file and stored in the /home/username/.mozila/plugins/ folder. Now it is working and I can watch all flash movies. But one bug I have found is after watching the video the Firefox 3 browser is crashing and asking me to restore the old session or create a new session. I think Firefox developers are aware of it.

Keep in watch! Now onwards I will update very often.

Call again! Thanks :)

Ubuntu up and running

Today I have transfered .iso file to CD. I have accessed the CD to install, it has shown me to try before install. I have tried the Ubuntu Linux operating system before install using CD. It was wonderful experience. I have installed the Ubuntu OS. It is working fine.

I have tried to play a DVD. The installed Media player is not recoginising the format of DVD, then it has asked me to search online for compatable format. I have tried and got a message showing "No format available".

Then I has searched in google and found a fourm topic, some body faced the same problem. One of expert has given some details about how to find the right software using add/remove programs in Ubuntu OS. I have found the some other Media players in add/remove programs. Now my DVD is working fine.

I will update some more things tomorrow, until then have a nice day. See you tomorrow.
