13 Things to do on a New Mandriva Free 2007 Linux Installation
13 Things to do on a New Mandriva Free 2007 Linux Installation
Mandriva linux is one of the more user friendly linux distributions available ,Right from its earlier days when it was called Mandrake Linux (Later they changed name to Mandriva after Mandrake acquired another popular linux distribution ) and Desktop Linux was still infancy , Mandriva Linux has been very user friendly and unlike some other linux distributions has been quite pleasant to work with for even computer newbies.
Now Mandriva Free 2007 Linux , though is extremely user friendly it dosent include many packages , codecs , fonts and other stuff , because of various licensing restrictions preventing distribution of codecs free and the fact that many packages are still in beta stage and their final stable version hasnt been released yet.
Here in this article i try to explain how to install various Codecs , Applicatons and Tweaks enable ing one to use mandriva linux as a windows alternative .
Enabling extra Repositories :
To install many codecs , application you have to enable various extra repositories , these repositories are not activated by default in Mandriva linux : -
Assuming you are running Gnome Desktop Environment go to Application -> System -> Terminals and launch terminal application
Enter the super user mode by typing " su " in the command line and providing the super user password . And type the following command to enable extra repositories .
(IMPORTANT : The version of Mandriva Linux i am using is Mandriva Free 2007 that was released back in 2006 , there is another version that has been released a few weeks back Mandriva Spring 2007 now if you are running that version many of the things described in this article should work , however while adding repositories in this step dont type the command below instead go to website : - http://easyurpmi.zarb.org/ select 2007 Spring /2007 depending on your architecture ,distribution and make a custom set of commands to activate different repositories , while selecting different repositories do not chose backports they are unstable package , select the contrib , main , plf-free , plf-nonfree and type the command genrated in terminal window after logging into super user mode )
I have genrated the following commands from the website mentioned above for Mandriva Free 2007 , Using default servers and i586 architecture if you want to use different mirrors / architecture follow instruction given above .
Repositories on Cdrom are also enabled by default you have to deactivate them , since you have added online repository so type the following command in Terminal Window
Note : - In Genral i dont recommend enabling repositories from unknown sources , but the repositories i have mentioned above are all from offical sources and are quite trustable
RAR is a popular archiving format for compressing files used popularly on windows platform , unrar is a small application that can be used for decompressing archives file created using rar application. It is not installed by default and has to be installed seprately.
to install unrar type the following command in the command line : -
Downloader for X is a nice download manager that allows downloading files from Internet , pausing them and downloading them later . It also supports splitting file into number of segments so that files could be downloaded quickly . However one thing that i didnt like about is its interface is somewhat difficult as compared to some of the download manager available on Windows.
Anyways to install " Downloader for X " type the following command in the terminal window after sudoing into super user mode .
5. Installing Adobe Flash player
Adobe Flash is presently the most popular way of adding interactivity to sites ,and a majority of websites today use flash . However it is not installed by default in Mandriva to install Macromedia flash type the following command in the terminal window after sudoing into super user mode .
after performing above step close firefox and start it again for changes to take effect.
6. Installing Java Runtime Environment
Java applets like Adobe Flash has become a integral part of internet browsing experience ,also a number of Java applications also exist which cannot run without Java Virtual Machines, however Java Runtime Environment is not installed by default in Mandrake Linux .
To Install Java Runtime Environment type the following commands in the terminal window (remember to change to super user mode before typing these commands) : -

Ubuntu is one of the most popular Linux distribution these days( has been on top of distrowatch site for quite some time now) especially among Linux Newbies , and Ubuntu has inspired a number of people to jump from Windows to Linux . However because of many licensing restrictions and closed source nature of many popular applications a number of applications / codecs are not installed by default in Ubuntu though Ubuntu community has done considerable work in this direction with inclusion of wizards in new Ubuntu 7.04 easing installation but still it is somewhat difficult .This is major hindrance for people jumping from Windows to Linux when they dont know how to install extra functionality to Ubuntu . Now applications like Automatix and Easyubuntu have eased this but still if you would like to follow different approach here is how you can install additional functionality on Ubuntu .
In this article i try to describe how to install Codecs / Applications easily on Ubuntu 7.04 installation making transition from Ubuntu to Windows easy , and making Ultimate Ubuntu Desktop .
1. Installing/Enabling additional Repositories
Now many applications need additional repositories to be installed or some to be enabled in Synaptic package manager so before trying out steps given below ensure that repositories in order.
launch Synaptic Package Manager (System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager ) , then in Synaptic package manager go to (Settings -> Repositories ) you will find window like this . Ensure that all the check boxes are marked leaving source code(if you want to you can enable this also but you are not going to need this unless you are software developer) the dialog box should look like this .
Now you have to add additional repositories , close synaptic package manager and type the following command in the terminal window (Application -> Accessories -> Terminal )
after completing above steps type
Now your system should be ready for installing extra codecs .
IMPORTANT : In General i dont recommend adding unknown repositories it is risky and could pose a security risk to your computer , however the repository i am adding above is official repository(Medibuntu) whose reference i got from official Ubuntu website so you should not worry about adding repository i mentioned above .
Here is the offical Ubuntu documentation with reference to Medibuntu repository
2. Installing Multimedia Codecs
w32codec is a collection dll files from windows that helps in decompressing major video/audio formats allowing them to be played flawlessly on Linux Media players , however because of legal issues associated with it is not included with Ubuntu .

3 Things To Do When Our Relationship Is Struggling
3 Things To Do When Our Relationship Is Struggling
3 Things To Do When Our Relationship Is Struggling
I have been with my life partner for half of my life—two decades.
This is the same amount of time that I have been meditating.
I’m comfortable giving out meditation advice, but I’m always wary giving out relationship advice. Everyone’s relationship is different, everyone needs different things in their relationships and sometimes staying in a relationship isn’t the right thing to do.
But you know, sometimes staying in a relationship is exactly the right thing to do.
Sometimes it is worth working through the tough issues. It is hard. It is demanding. But when we come to the other side of the relationship block, we can find ourselves in a transformative place. Quite like meditation.
In the two decades that I’ve been with my partner, we’ve changed and grown so much. And in that growth there have been several honeymoon periods as well as times of struggle.
I would be lying if I said I always knew we would make it. There have been arguments, disagreements and growth periods where we seemed so far apart that I didn’t know if we could come back together.
But so far we have stuck with it, and for us it has been worth it.
When we go through rough patches in our relationship, here are some things to keep in mind:
1. People Grow at Different Rates
What I mean here is that spiritual, emotional and mental growth are important to humans. It is the way we evolve as a species. However, when one half of a partnership goes through a particularly big growth period it can alter the dynamic of a relationship.
That doesn’t mean the relationship has to end. But it might mean some patience is needed. In my experience, it can take three months to a year for these growth periods to equalize. In order for this to happen, both partners need to commit to the growth process.
Three months to a year might sound like a long time, especially if you’ve only been in a relationship for a few months or a couple of years. But when I look at two decades worth of relationship growth, I can now see that a few months of patience and diligence is worth it to keep the relationship alive.
2. Have fun!
Mostly, people get into a relationship because they enjoy each other’s company. Hopefully, partners find each other funny, interesting and enjoy spending time together. However, when bills, mortgages, deaths, parents and kids come into the picture, our intimate partners can become the place of our worst stress.
We talk with our partners about all the things that make us feel overwhelmed. And we might start to think, why would I want to spend time with this person who causes me so much stress?
That is exactly why we need to go have fun together. We need to take time off from talking about the finances and worrying about the kids and go do the things we enjoy.
My partner and I de-stress by going out in nature or going to see some live music together. We put our fun time on the calendar to make sure it happens. If we aren’t having fun together we can start to feel like, what’s the point of being together at all?
3. Reduce Stress
Unfortunately, stress has a horrible affect on women and men. It can make women clingy and in need of attention and it can make men distant and less interested in romance. Stress can pull relationships apart.
So, there are two approaches to handling stress in our lives and therefore in our relationships.
If it’s temporary stress that is unavoidable, like a sick family member or a busy work period, then we can be honest about how the stress is challenging the relationship, and find humor and grace in the situation. When the temporary stress is over, we can prioritize nurturing our relationship.
If it’s systemic stress that has been going on for years, then it’s important to make a decision: Is it more important to hold on to the systemic stress or to have a healthy, fulfilling relationship? If the relationship comes out on top, then we’ll need to make life changes so that the relationship can prosper.
All things are impermanent. This is what we learn in meditation practice and it also applies to relationships.
We change, we grow and if we’re lucky the relationship itself will, too.
But just like meditation practice, nurturing a relationship takes patience, commitment and a compassionate attitude. When these things exist, we can embrace the growth and change that comes with committing to a long-term relationship.
