Cartoon of prophet

Danish newspapers again published again cartoon of Prophet Mohammad (peace upon him).

They call it "freedom of speech". I don't understand there definition freedom. As much as I know freedom means to do any thing without hurting anybody.
Cartoon is an art to entertain the people. It is very creative thing. But they used it do the destructive thing. How bad their mentality is.

    The Danish might've drawn cartoons of the Prophet but the Americans have made fun of Mother Mary in popular media such as "Southpark". It's high time people realise that such trivial things need to be tolerated and not taken too seriously. Taking such things too seriously only tends to hurt us. Similar feelings were portrayed by the Hindu fundamentalists when M. F. Hussain drew naked pictures of Hindu Gods and Goddesses. Now, how in the world does anyone know if these Gods/Goddesses actually wear clothes at all? Ignorance + Intolerance = Bad Idea. If you recall an infamous incident way back in '94 in Afghanistan, the Taliban(?) destroyed an ancient Huge statue of Buddha. Now something of such historic importance, if not religious, was destroyed just because of intolerance. In my honest opinion, tolerance will take us a long way. And correcting mistakes within is the first step towards correcting mistakes outside of us.

opensuse repair is awesome

I installed OpenSuse 11.1 on my machine. I have done kde4/kde3/gnome installation. It takes about 40-45 minutes. After instaltion I installed Nvidia driver, nvidia driver has installed new kernel (containing trace in name). When I changed boot order to make trace default kernel, grub is installed on root partition than MBR, so my system become unbootable. I got only 2 days of holidays. I come to know abt this problem after I returned to my work city (Indore) from Home (Khandwa). So I could not fix the problem. So I have to fix it via phone. My brother booted the system with Opensuse 11.1 dvd. My brother is not very technical person but he is advace-level PC user. We have never used recover/rescue installed system option. We selected automated recovery mode. It first checks all partitions and packages, all of them found is good state, setup found error boot loader configuration, we loaded boot loader configuration from disk and found that grub is installed on root partition instead of M...

Installing Ralink 3090 wifi driver

I installed Kubuntu 10.10 on my new laptop, my laptop is Compaq CQ62- 308AX. It has Ralink 3090 wifi, which is not automatically detected by Kubuntu. Even restricted driver manager does not show any option for this device. So I downloaded the driver from Ralink site (http://www.ralinktech.com/support.php?s=2).  It is in the source format. I thought I might have to patch the kernel source. I went through the readme file and I found that I don’t have to compile kernel ( yippee an hr saved). Only device driver source is needed to be compile. These days things are much more simple. So I compiled the driver by running command “make” and installed it by “make install”.  It has compiled other ralink wifi modules along with 3090 module. After installation (using ‘make install’)  reboot the machine, reboot is not necessary in Linux after installing driver.  After reboot it loaded incorrect  rt2086 module. So I tried manually unloading and loading module using insmode...

html encode/decode in drupal

Like all major CMS drupal stores text fields in encoded html format, to prevent cross site scripting attacks. Some times drupal does not process custom fields and encoded text is displayed as it is. I come across similar issue in my current project. I also post question on StackOverflow. While search for solution I come to know about decode_entities function. decode_entities converts html encoded text to more friendly text. Similary to encode special charters in text you can use check_plain. decode_entities function http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/includes!unicode.inc/function/decode_entities/7 check_plain function http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/includes!bootstrap.inc/function/check_plain/7 My question on StackOverflow http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14229641/rss-feeds-view-showing-encoded-special-character-in-title
