Writing Japanese on Fedora

robert | 04 April, 2005 14:21

The second part of the configuration is writing. I needed the following packages installed:

# yum install iiimf-gnome-im-switcher iiimf-le-canna iiimf-gtk iiimf-x Canna

Started the services (this is only required if you do not want to reboot)

# service iiim start
# service canna start

Fedora and Japanese web pages

In preparation for a lot of reading of Japanese web pages, I noticed that I was unable to see a lot of the characters needed, so I solved this installing the RPM package ttfonts-ja, with the command:

yum install ttfonts-ja

Japanese language course

robert | 02 April, 2005 14:25

I formalized my registration on a course of Japanese promoted by the Japan embassy in my country. I am eager to start it. The cost is around 140$ for six months, four hours a week. There are four levels and I am starting at level A (Basic), so the full process will take two years.

I will be bloging about my progress when the course starts, two weeks from now.

This is a Morrocoy:

A photo of one of my Morrocoys

If I am rigth this kind turtle is exactly a Geochelone carbonaria. I have two, and this is the first time I take a picture of them. They are nearly 6 year old and they were born at the house of an old friend and university/work teammate, located on Ciudad Bol?var, Bolivar state, Venezuela. I am sorry I have lost contact with him after he left the job to follow new ventures.

Morrocoy is also the name of a national park in my country: Morrocoy National Park

Stealing Open Source code?

robert | 12 March, 2005 20:50

It is amazing that some people try to steal code from others, but are not intelligent enough to learn that no obfuscation method is perfect. Read the article The pits in CherryOS and make your own conclusions.

I am not an user of PearPC but I hope they can do the necessary to fix the damages generated by unscrupulous persons.
