A new test version of Youtube offers HTML 5 video support, meaning watching videos without Adobe Flash, but only when browsing with Chrome or Safari. While this might seem strange at first, and might sound like Google is abandoning its Firefox users, things are a little bit more complicated.

The rest of you may already be aware of this, but I just discovered something about Ubuntu I was not aware of.

iPhone & HTML5 bring "streaming Silverlight content" to LinuxLXer Feature: 28-Nov-2009
The idea is to store ones files on a cloud (Ubuntu One), so that they remain private, using encryption, but so that they can be transparently uploaded and downloaded and accessed, as if they are unencrypted files.

Here's a quick blog, because I'm really in hurry, so please forgive any mistakes.
Microsoft worked together with Apple to bring Silverlight video to the iPhone. What this solution basically does is take a video at the server side, cut it in parts and convert the parts to separate H.264 streams. Then stream those files to end users with IIS Media services. These have .ts extensions, a format mplayer understands.

There could be several reasons why your PC doesn't have a CD-ROM. For example, the next scenario:
- 1) You damaged the mobo fan while hoovering dust,
- 2) The new fan you bought featured adhesive tape which didn't last at 60 degrees (C), and an iron cord didn't fix it, causing the fan to fall of,
- 3) The northbridge burned,
- 4) The new 'green' AMD780G mobo you bought could not facilitate both your CD-ROM and IDE drives,
- 5) Given your IDE drives were part of a RAID array, you decided not to connect your CD-ROM drives.
OK, your reasons will probably be different, but these are mine. "Not a problem" I thought. "After all, it's 2009. Who needs CD-ROMs anyway?" The answer is: Mandriva, Gentoo, Tinycore and even Windows 7 don't, but Debian derived stuff does. It makes your life really hard, while Ubuntu is meant to make your life as a human being simple.

LXer Book Review: Pro Linux System AdministrationLXer Feature: 26-Oct-2009

LXer Feature: 22-Oct-2009
“By the end of this book, You’ll be well on your way to becoming a Linux expert” is quite a bold claim for a book that is aimed at people who only have some familiarity with Windows and networking. “Pro Linux System Administration” by James Turnbull, Peter Lieverdink and Dennis Matotek aims to do precisely that and surprisingly, it largely succeeds. In its 1080 pages it explains how you can set up and configure multiple Linux servers to operate a small business network. Starting with basic Linux management and working up the stack through networking, e-mail and webservers you will end up with a pretty complete network that includes document management, groupware and disaster recovery.

LXer Weekly Roundup for 20-Sept-2009LXer Feature: 28-Sept-2009
I just got back from OhioLinuxFest "Forty Years of Unix," and I want to report on what I heard, who I saw, and what I learned. I wasn't sure how it would be this year, with a slowed economy. Compared to last year, it had fewer exhibitors, but roughly the same number of attendees. The raffle tickets sold out, which is a good sign for any fund-raising activity.
