Intel has decided to bring forward the launch of its single-core Atom N280 processor bundled with GN40 chipset to the second half of February instead of in the second or third quarter as previously planned, according to sources at Taiwan notebook makers.

The Atom N280 bundled with GN40 chipset will be available for US$60-65 in thousand unit-tray quantities, the sources indicated. Taiwan-based notebook vendors Asustek Computer and Gigabyte Technology are preparing to launch Atom N280-based netbooks, with Asusteks forthcoming Eee PC 1000DN likely to be the first model to hit the market, the sources noted.

Bugtraq 2 Black Widow Final builds on Ubuntu, Debian and OpenSuse. Each distribution comes with XFce, Gnome and KDE Window Manager. They all also come with 32-bit and 64-bit. A total of 18 copies that the Bugtraq Team needs to maintain.



I downloaded Ubuntu Gnome 32-bit and 64-bit version as I like Gnome Classic very much. After boot up, you need to set "Session" to "Gnome Classic" from the login screen of the Live DVD. The username is "bugtraq" and the password is "123456". The installation program is situated at "Applications -- System Tools -- Administration -- Install RELEASE" on 32-bit version. The installation program for 64-bit is on the Desktop.



The installation on my Parallels (Mac OS X Virtualization program) is smooth. I suggest you to select to download the update and 3rd party programs when install. For the first login of the installed copy, you need to set the "Session" to "Gnome Classic" and also makes it to default.



Bugtraq 2 comes with Services Administrator GUI and Databases GUI as well as Conky. However, there are some bugs on those programs. I am now going to fix it. The 2 GUI are situated at "Applications -- System Services".



I prepared a auto-run script to fix the bugs on the those programs and you can download it at here. It works well on 32-bit and 64-bit Ubuntu Gnome version.



The bugfix script is intended to fix the bugs on the Sagui and DBgui. However, it also fix some minor bugs on Conky. Be keep in mind that the official Conky is written for wireless device (wlan0) while my bugfix script is also written for wlan0. If you are using ethernet device, you need to change the "wlan0" to "eth0" (or any device that fits) on the "+.conkyrc" and "proxys.conf" scripts in the "bugtraq-2-gnome-x32-bugix" directory. Make sure you change it before running the bugfix script. In addition, the script will install some missing packages too.



WARNING : This bugfix script may damage your system or computer. You take care of the risk while using it.



Extract it with the following command :



tar -xvzf bugtraq-2-gnome-x32-bugfix.tar.gz



To run it :



cd bugtraq-2-gnome-x32-bugfix

./auto-bugfix.sh



UPDATE



The auto-run script has been updated for minor bug fix on Conky script, you can download at here







Thats all! See you.

Michael Hollick never thought his big break would come in a video game, but it did and he didnt make millions. Mr. Hollick was paid about $100,000 over roughly 15 months between late 2006 and early this year for all of his voice acting and motion-capture work on the game, with zero royalties or residuals in sight, he said. The article doesnt state how many hours he worked, but $100,000 doesnt seem like he got ripped off. The guild-negotiated rate for actors is around $730 a day. Mr. Hollick said he had been paid about 50 percent more than the standard rate, or about $1,050 a day. That means he made $100,000 in just 95 days! If those were 8 hour days he was making ~$131 an hour! If you dont have Grand Theft Auto IV for the game is awesome and you can snag

“Obviously I’m incredibly thankful to Rockstar for the opportunity to be in this game when I was just a nobody, an unknown quantity,” Mr. Hollick, 35, said last week over dinner in Willamsburg, Brooklyn, shortly after performing in the aerial theater show “Fuerzabruta” in Union Square. “But it’s tough, when you see Grand Theft Auto IV out there as the biggest thing going right now, when they’re making hundreds of millions of dollars, and we don’t see any of it. I don’t blame Rockstar. I blame our union for not having the agreements in place to protect the creative people who drive the sales of these games. Yes, the technology is important, but it’s the human performances within them that people really connect to, and I hope actors will get more respect for the work they do within those technologies.”

It is possible for a company to carry out their operations and realize their objectives without a clear IT strategy. In fact, many companies, organization and businesses manage to do that. Nonetheless, the absence of a straightforward or easy to understand framework would means that investment choices about Information Technology have to be made in their own advantages.

Producing a success Information Technology plan should not be difficult at all. You can actually draft a plan that will not only work now but also be useful in the times to come. There are several steps involved in coming up with an effective Information Technology plan.

The very first step is planning and preparation because IT plan is a full project in its own right and you must approach it in respectful manner. More often that not you want your plan to cover all the activities you intend to undertake but if you for any reason you feel like excluding some areas, feel free to do so. A clear plan tries to identify a supervisor in the company who will sponsor the work and consider setting up a team of professionals to manage the project.

The third area focuses on the standard of the current technology, its support arrangement and the operation policies. It would be important to ask whether it is appropriate to purchase standard package programs or creating your own. Ask yourself about the level of Information Technology you would require for effective operation.

The second step is to understand the Information Technology needs of your organization. In other words, the plan you intend to draft should have a direct link to the aims, objectives and the visions of your organization. Take time to analyze the current Information Technology structure, assess its strength and points of weaknesses, the advantages it has brought to the company and demerits too if any.

With a proper plan in place, it becomes quite simple to determine whether a company will need to put in place, a support system that runs on a twenty-four how basis, seven days a week all year round. Get to know the actual nature of the support system you intend to outsource to the third party out there. A great plan clearly describes the nature of resources and skill level required for company development.

A great plan can bring many benefits to a business, company or an organization. The good thing is that Information Technology matched with your needs will be supportive enough to give strength to your activities. This means it will be easy for you to achieve your aims and realize your goals with easy.

The last step in coming up with a successful IT strategy is putting the decisions made into real actions. Make sure that the documented plan is in line with the needs, the objectives and the aims of the organization else, it may be rendered useless. It should be for the benefit of the whole organization, no matter who is involved.
