Sehr zu empfehlen, besonders wenn man seine Lesegewohnheiten nicht mit Google oder anderen Anbietern teilen möchte …

site_shot_3

Einfach das Paket von der Webseite herrunterladen, die config.php-dist bearbeiten und als config.php abspeichern.
Wichtig sind hier vor allem die Datenbankeinstellungen sowie die Temp. Verzeichnisse, die man für einen einfachen Webaccount bei einem Hoster ggf. auf seine eigenen Pfade anpassen muss.

Zum Schluss noch das entsprechende Datenbankschema aus “schema”-Verzeichnis einspielen.

Außerdem sollte man nicht vergessen meinen Feed zu abonieren :-)

A few month ago i blogged about visualizing of source code.


Now you can see the visualisation of software comments on www.natpryc.com. You see a graphical repesentation of comments used for private communication between team members.


Tomcat for example:


You will find ther software projects and images on the website.


The software which was used to create this graphics is available as a Bazaar repository http://www.natpryce.com/bzr/project-painter. So you can compare it with your own graphs.

OpenOffice 3.1 or a newer version are not in the Ubuntu 9.04 repository. You will get it with Ubuntu 9.10.

You can install Version 3.1 in the same way you installed 3.0 on Ubuntu 8.10.

Add the following source to your software sources as Third-Party-Software sources:
System > Administration > Software Sources, Third Party Software tab, click “Add“

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu jaunty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

Note: Or you add it to “/etc/apt/sources.list” by hand.


Now you have to add the key for the new software repository:

sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 60D11217247D1CFF

On the launchpad page you can get a detailed description about keys and how to add them to your system.


Now you can upgrade to OpenOffice 3.1:

aptitude update
aptitude upgrade

Note: You will get the new OpenOffice version over the default update manager, too.
