I have been using Linux Fedora for a couple of month and decided that it was time to set it up for Android. I was expecting it to be something like what I did for Ubuntu (Setting Up ADB/USB Drivers for Android Devices in Linux Ubuntu), but it was much easier in Fedora. Just had to install two utilities and that was it. This was tested in Fedora 18 Spherical Cow and Fedora 19 Schrödinger’s Cat.
But I do not want to bore you with my story, continue reading for the guide

This is a simple script that will rename files. Takes an absolute path as input, and looks for files with a specific string in its name. Will not traverse up the specified path. It will keep a log of the last run in the script’s directory.
I have more than 500 files that need to be renamed, but I am too lazy to do it manually, so I wrote this script to do it for me. All of the files follow two specific patterns in the name as indicated below.
Backlit keyboards are pretty usual these days, beside being cool looking, they are very useful at night. When I first installed Fedora 18 ‘Spherical Cow’ in my new ASUS N56V, the keyboard backlight was working perfectly. After updating to (I believe) kernel version 3.8.x the keyboard backlight stopped working, bummer. I did my research and was able to find the solution for this problem.

This laptop in particular comes with premium audio which includes a small subwoofer, (great for watching movies) and to my disappointment, it was not working with Linux. Had to make some configuration changes to make it work.

(Genesis 37) Later on in Genesis 39, Joseph finds himself serving under Potiphar’s command, an officer of Pharaoh. It was here when Potiphar’s wife tempted Joseph to perform a wicked act, Joseph responded “How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?” (Genesis 39:9) and in verse 12 “he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out”.
Continue readingWhen there is no specific vision, man lives to please himself. When there is a God given vision, every decision of one’s life should be to fulfill that vision. Take Nehemiah’s life, his God given vision was to rebuild Jerusalem’s walls and every decision was taken with that vision in mind. Ultimately man’s goal should be to serve God.
Continue readingBy setting up some preferences in Eclipse, we can achieve an IntelliSense-like behavior in Eclipse. If you have ever used Microsoft Visual Studio, then let me explain what IntelliSense is. IntelliSense can speed up your coding by auto-completing your words as you type, lets say you have aVeryLongVariable in your code, as soon as you start typing aV, a box will pop-up with the suggestions for auto-completion, you can either continue typing or just press enter and your variable will be auto-completed.
You can check and install updates in Fedora Linux using the Software app or thru command line. Personally I like command line better since is faster and less trouble some than having to go thru Software.
