Me and my thoughts

Me and my thoughts
We walk together
I think
My thoughts make me think
We share the same road
Sometime I try to leave
But my thoughts hold me back
It is my thoughts
That shape my road
Is it my thoughts therefore I am?
Or is it me therefore are my thoughts?

My Jokes

A man was sentenced to death. The justice asked the man if he had any last wishes before he dies. the man replied that he had no wishes but the last thing he wants to do is to change  his  face book and twitter status to inform all his friends that he is a dead man

Zotero makes it simple

Since when I was referred to Zotero by one of my teachers, my bibliography management has turned to be pretty easy and fast.  Specially when surfing the web and i can save the bibligraphic info just by few clicks,  later exporting references and using with Endnote makes everything just ready to use and cite in my documents. Here it is in short steps how I am working with references using Zotero.  there might be other ways or shortcut, but as i hv not researched about it, here is how I am working with it.  and so far i am quite happy about it.

1. Zotero is a Firefox plug in. when installed it appears at the bottom in the status bar of your browser.
2. When searching articles in Acm digital library, if you click on the  display format “Endnote” and the reference  will be saved in zotero.
3. Select a number of references that you want to export and create an endnote library. Right click mouse and ->export selected items -> Refer/BibIX format
4. It will be saved as a text file.  say aaa.txt
5. Create an endnote  file, open the file and from File -> import-> aaa.txt
6. choose Refer/BibIX as import option
Done!
all references are in the Endnote library ready to use and cite!

when i upgrade ubuntu from gutsy to Hardy, VMWare is not functioning

I had VMware workstation 5.5.3 installed in my earlier version of ubuntu. then i upgraded it wont start anymore.

This is bcos of the fact that, None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Workstation is suitable for the new running kernel (2.6.24).  The way I solved it is
1. download the latest version of vmware-any-any package, from the link
this program build the vmmon module for your system.
save the package in the same directory as the vmware distribution file
vmware-any-any-update116 ( I have it in ~/src/VMWare/)

2. tar xzf vmware-any-any-update116.tar.gz
3. cd ~/src/VMWare/vmware-any-any-update116
4. sudo ./runme.pl

this solved my problem, and it is running again!!

Sharing Files Between Ubuntu Host and Virtual Machines

after i enable the shared folder in ubuntu, I can’t see the shared folder in WInXP ,

>> try to map network drive.
if you browse, you will see the VMware shared folders inside Entire Network
you will find the enabled shared folder there. Select the folder and you have a mapped network drive icon to access the folder now!
