Hi folks,

I had deleted my Twitter account because i got some Spam messages from my follower, that i should not. I am also not a happy user of these social networks any way. For me, useless junk with waste of time. I started a community thread in openSUSE forum for this. If you are interested to read this Twitter non sense, just follow the link below and you will get more information about it. That why i deleted it?

Hi all,
Yesterday i recieve an email from Monty(MySQL AB) as part of the “Save MySQL”.
A lot of users who are using MySQL wrote letter to EC to stop the deal between Sun and Oracle.

The deal is not finalized yet, so MySQL need us now at this crucial stage.

I already filled and sent this petition to Monty. Would also appreciate if some one using MySQL want to part of this mission and help MySQL by filling and sending it to Monty.

Here is the link.

Here is detailed link, where Monty explain everything about the deal and its results. This is an interesting read.

Google Chrome beta is already released for Linux, but in this post i am not going to explain something about Google Chrome. Its about Chromium. But if you want to download and install Chrome beta version, download from here.

http://www.google.com/chrome?platform=linux

Note: I think, there will be no flash plugin installed, one need to install it manually and copy it to browsers plugin directory.

Now lets jump to Chromium, what is chromium, if there is already Chrome?

So to elaborate a bit, Google Chrome is the same software offered by Google, while Chromium is offered by open source community, they release fixes and patches on daily basis. And further more there is no need to install flash plugin, installing it from the community repos will automatically install every thing for you. Currently i am using Chromium 4.0.283, and i love it. Its fast, simple and easy to use.

NOTE: There is no big difference between Google Chrome and Chromium.

To install in Ubuntu:

1- Add this repo(URL) to software sources.

Software source -> Third party software(Tab) -> click add

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/chromium-daily/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

Ubuntu will prompt for reload, just cancel it, because we need to add OpenPGP key.

2- Open terminal and run this command:

sudo apt-key adv –recv-keys –keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 0xfbef0d696de1c72ba5a835fe5a9bf3bb4e5e17b5

3- Now update the system repos with:

sudo apt-get update

4- Now lets install chromium:

sudo apt-get install chromium-browser

And you are done, you can find Chromium in Applications -> Internet -> Chromium Web browser

To install in openSUSE:

1- Open YaST, goto software repositories, click add button, choose community repositories from the choices, and click next. Now select Contrib repo and click OK.

2- Now open software management from YaST, and search for ‘chromium’ without quotes and mark it for installation, click Accept button and you are done.

More easy than Ubuntu in openSUSE.

Good luck with it and enjoy.
