Linux : Easy way to share files with Dropbox

With Dropbox, you will able to share and automatically sync your file into the Dropbox server. Pretty easy and fast too!

For Linux, go here. https://www.dropbox.com/downloading?os=lnx . In this post, this is how-to for Fedora.

Environment : Behind proxy.

1. Download and install dropbox rpm. (rpm -ivh)
2. From terminal dropbox start -i to start Dropbox daemon. Register with Dropbox if you did not have any Dropbox account.

*After the setup, you will see, Dropbox folder in your /home/. This is where Dropbox will sync the folder with the Dropbox server. Basically, you just upload any files on the Dropbox folder and it will automatically sync to the server.

3.After you place any file on the Dropbox folder, let's say Dropbox/Public, you will see there is an small emblem to your file.



4. After awhile, your file will sync to the server. Head to Dropbox account, you will see the file that you just sync via /home/Dropbox folder. :)

*there is a dropbox icon in you tray.


Below are screenshot for Dropbox.


Dropbox /home folder. There is tick green emblem besides the PICLoop.


Blue Dropbox icon tray. Dropbox is running!



Dropbox account on the server.

Picasa 3 on Fedora 13

Oh yeah. After few weeks of using Picasa 3.0, Picasa suddenly crash. Nvm.

Here is the workaround.

Picasa 3.0 for Fedora. Can get it here : http://dl.google.com/linux/rpm/testing/i386/picasa-3.0-current.i386.rpm

Stated there, All downloads are approximately 30 MB: Picasa software (13 MB), Wine (11 MB) and Gecko engine (6 MB).

So, I assume Gecko is the culprit.

Let's setup Gecko first.

Refer here. http://wiki.winehq.org/picasa

You need winetricks. From winetricks, pick Gecko. Then OK.
Make sure you already have cabextract. yum install cabextract.




Then,



If you behind proxy, set your proxy at /etc/wgetrc

Done.

Google goggle coming to iPhone

What so fuss about Google goggle?

Google Goggles lets you search Google using pictures from your camera phones. We take an image as input, and using several image recognition backends (object recognition, place matching, OCR, etc), we return relevant search results


So? Checkout this video.



Every time someone asking me about Android, this is the software I did mention after all the "What is Android?" explanation.

Since I less travelling and maybe someday, for any reason I will travel to anyplace you can name it, this is the first software that will come in my mind.

Snap the picture, and Google goggle will do the job for you by acquiring any related information, so you will not bother to ask people. Independent huh?

As much as Google goggle is made for Android, I'm looking forward for this software coming to iPhone. With the new push for Google app in iPhone, this is the major step for users to maximize the Google app.

And, to have Google Talk standalone app with backgrounding would be awesome! :)

i-Hack 2010

18 out of 27. Fantastic achievement. LOL.

Represent UTP with the name of d0t, here come m0d0 (me), wadefak and zeff. We participated in Hacking & Defence categ. So, from the close source, this hacking & defence is totally different from previous H&D. This time, each team have a server where they need to defend it (prevent from attackers to get the flag) and at the same it, the need to attack other servers (get others flag) in order to get the point.

The whole system was based on topup system. Where to gain something, u need to buy. Initially, we have Y (yen)3000 to start with. 1st thing we bought was user password in our server in order to start daemons.

We have 3 daemons :
backdoor
echo
apache2

All daemons must be running while the scoreboard will check the service. Point will be deduct if the daemon is down. To make it short, in our server, we have jobberbase as a webpage. There is a flaw, which is in the upload section for applying jobs. Race condition.Google "php race condition".

However, we did try something about it but we did not aware of the race condition flaw. As matter of fact, most of the team did not aware of it. Exception to darkc0de,w0nderpets. Maybe?

Stegno was very effing hard. Kot? Hahaha. But, several guys manage find a way to solve it, and maybe miss two or 3 steps. Kudos to them.

Anyway, it was a very good competition. Fair enough to the committee, I guess. Just, we when ask something, they will reply "Jap eh, nak tanye org dulu". Y lar dat thing happen. I will happily to interact with the "org" directly. Just like previous i-Hack where all team were place in one big cold hall, and straight away we can see the sifus (SCAN) yang buat soalan.

As a team members, I will partially take the blame on the fall of the UTP legacy (lol). So, I did realize my mistake where I did not directly engage with the organizer after there were numerous time of our box is down. Kene attack ke? I don't think so.

Ni silap die, bile box tu down, on my behalf, aku x straight away put my hands up high in the air and asking them about the box (reboot ke..) . Yet, for the last 3 hours, I remain calm as buaya in the sungai waiting for food because lapar kaw2.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As for the committee, I believe, there are significant things that you can learn from it. Aku rase, kalau taruk sume team dalam hall lagi better kot. Comfortable. Anyway, hacking and defense. LOL.

2nd, i believe, previous ihack ade buat name tag dekat participant punye card. apsal xtaruk dah? isk. kang sonot ade name situ. xde la tulis participant je. tulis la n00bies ke ape ke.

3rd, my teammate, teng aka wadefak, have serious problem with his connection. Switch problem ke, cable problem ke. This things happen byk kali throughout the fasting 12 hours. Kerepek sedap.xpe dimaafkan.

4th, 12 hours is too long la bang. sakit kepale den don tenung lappy tu. previous buat 2 days, sronok kot. maybe defcon macam tu. xtau la. tapi, if 2 days best sikit kot?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Conclusion, good event. Matlamat korang utk event maybe tercapai, maybe x, who cares. We as the participants, enjoy it. Good job.

For UTP team, GG :P

*stegno susah wei. (sebab n00b)
**mase mule2 ade network, sume pasang backtrack. haha. pakai ke backtrack tu for the H&D? tapi sounds bt cool lah. sebab ramai2 boot :P

Adios

yum update | bypass download limit

It is not a trick or hack anyway, it just another method of how to install or yum update several packages which is more than downloadable size due to proxy or anything.

So, in my case, I believe my download limit is 47Mb in UTP. So, the package of the openoffice.org-core is 87Mb. So, there is now way to update the package via yum update.

I can't update openoffice.org because the -core package must be download first.

What I do is, I download openoffice.org-core ONLY via download manager. Then, we will instruct yum to use openoffice.org-core which we download then update anything else via the command.

yum localinstall openoffice.org-core-3.2.0-12.25.fc13.i686.rpm


Done.

:)
