Great Linux article
Here is a great Linux article on blogs.zdnet.com:
http://blogs.zdnet.com/community/wp-trackback.php?p=156
It talks about the lack of ad campaigns on TV for Linux.
The Linux Foundation is sponsoring a “We’re Linux” video contest for uses to express what Linux means to them.
The grand prize is a trip to Tokyo for the Japan Linux Symposium in October 2009.
Pretty cooooool ...
Anyone submit a video?
Leave a comment with a link!

I see a lot of traffic coming to by blog by people searching for "Fedora 10 Dell 1520".
So I thought I would ask the question... What information are you looking for?
I will try to answer all questions, or point you in the right direction.
So go ahead and post a comment with your question.

Linux quick tip
Here's a neat tip I read about in the January 2009 Issue 177 of Linux Journal.
Using netstat with the -tpe flags to monitor programs that are making connections to remote hosts.
-t limits output to TCP connections
-p displays the PID and name of the program
-e displays extra information
Sample:
# netstat -tpe
Active Internet connections (w/o servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State User Inode PID/Program name
tcp 0 180 10.10.10.9:ssh 10.10.10.8:exlm-agent ESTABLISHED root 11831 2811/sshd: kpb [pri
tcp 0 0 10.10.10.9:39383 yx-in-f104.google.com:http ESTABLISHED kpb 13586 3023/elinks
tcp 0 0 10.10.10.9:49349 cg-in-f100.google.com:http ESTABLISHED kpb 13577 3023/elinks

Linux command of the week
Linux command of the week
convert
Convert is a great command for resizing images.
I needed to change the size of some images for a web server I was working on this past week. I needed to cut the size of the file down so the page would load faster.
It can also be used to change the file type
eg $
