Recommendations for a simple, fast GUI LAN chat application? [Solved]

We now have 4 ArchLinux machines scattered throughout the house. (My wife is an Archer now!). I am looking for a simple fast GUI LAN chat application. I looked at "qchat" but it is a bit cumbersome and doesn't have the option of a small applet to the panel. Any recommendations appreciated...

I just tried it with a few machines and it works fine.
Excellent choice! Nice, light and unobtrusive. Works well, thanks for the recommendation.

  • Recommendations for IPS in Medium-Sized LAN?

    I have two ASA-5520's in active/standby mode servicing a 500-node LAN w/ 1 outside interface, 1 inside interface, and 1 DMZ. How best to implement IPS, preferably using integrated modules, and without introducing a single point of failure? Also, what software would I need to install & manage IPS? Can it be managed thru ASDM or is something like Cisco Security Manager (CSM) necessary? TIA!

    You don;t mention if you want to do in-line IPS or promiscious mode IDS.
    We'll assume you want in-line IPS. You'll need an AIP-SSM module in each ASA5520 chassis. they will operate independantly (unlike the firewalls that maintain state between them), and you'll suffer a little when traffic fails over between active and standby ASAs. The size of the AIP-SSM modules will depend on how much traffic you're pushing thru your firewall interfaces that require inspection, including your DMZs. Don't believe the Cisco performance numbers. Since you only have two IPS sensors I wouldn't reccomend CSM. use the CLI, build in GUI or the free up-to-5-sensor management application.

  • Choosing Layout Manager for a simple swing GUI application.

    I am about to design a swing application with following design. The main Frame will consist of two panels, the left one will hold a tree menu and the right one will display or remove other panels from the main Frame based on the tree menu item selection. I won't be using CardLayout, because when a new menu item is selected from the left tree, I will remove the existing panel from the right side (completely from the swing memmory) and load a fresh panel.
    I have used absolute positioning in the past and can use the same for this design too. But for the advantages of using a LayoutManagers instead, I am willing to use them(Layout Managers).
    I understand that the main Frame could have BorderLayout with the tree menu on the left, the appropriate panels can be positioned at the center.
    For the panels that are loaded on the right side of the Frame, I am not sure about which LayoutManager should be used (hence I am posting this question). The panel will compose of input components (labels, textfields, comboboxes...), properly formatted and buttons. I believe that I can use FlowLayout for positioning the buttons in the bottom of the panel, but I am not sure of which LayoutManager to use for input components.
    regards,
    nirvan.

    I would use a JSplitPane to separate the tree menu from the display panel with the display panel being static and a fixed size(you're won't be removing or replacing) and placing the app. panels that correspond to the selected item in the menu into the "display panel".

  • Drawing and some layout help for a simple control: thin lines and application start

    I am trying to create a new, simple control. The control should act as a grouping marker much like that found in the Mathematica notebook interface. It is designed to sit to the right of a node and draw a simple bracket. The look of the bracket changes depending on whether the node is logically marked open or closed.
    After looking at some blogs and searching, I tried setting the snapToPixels to true in the container holding the marker control as well as the strokewidth but I am still finding that the bracket line is too thick. I am trying to draw a thin line. Also, I am unable to get the layout to work when the test application is first opened. One of the outer brackets is cut-off. I hardcoded some numbers into the skin just to get something to work.
    Is there a better way to implement this control?
    How can I get the fine line drawn as well as the layout correct at application start?

    The test interfaces are already defined for you - the 3rd party session bean remote/local interfaces.
    It is pretty trivial to create implementations of those interfaces to return the test data from your XML files.
    There are a number of ways to handle the switching, if you have used the service locator pattern, then I would personally slot the logic in to the service locator, to either look up the 3rd party bean or return a POJO test implementation of the interface according to configuration.
    Without the service locator, you are forced to do a little more work, you will have to implement your own test session beans to the same interfaces as the 3rd party session beans.
    You can then either deploy them instead of the 3rd party beans or you can deploy both the test and the 3rd party beans under different JNDI names,and use ejb-ref tags and allow you to switch between test and real versions by changing the ejb-link value.
    Hope this helps.

  • Recommendation for fast Mac for databases or way to make Mac faster?

    I've currently got a Mac mini 1.83 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 1 GB RAM running OS 10.6.8. I'm on a quest to either make my current Mac faster or find the ideal mac for databases. I upgraded recently from 10.5.8 to 10.6.8 in the hopes of making my computer more stable and faster, but things are running slower. No wonder, Activity Monitor hardly shows any green memory. Apple doesn't seem to sell memory for this Mac anymore. So I'm wondering whether it's time to just get a new Mac.
    What Mac would you recommend for someone not using videos, music, images on a regular basis? Would you consider any of them to be overkill for mostly running database programs? Or would any particular one be insufficient?
    Thanks!

    Well, almost correct. This computer is used primarily for work, which typically involves FMP or Excel, a  browser, less frequently page layout software, Acrobat, emulators of older Mac OSs, and very rarely videos, graphics or audio files. The original problem that led to this post was with a large Excel file that started going haywire. Troubleshooting that led me to repair permissions, repair disk (nothing wrong), reset all sorts of prefs, and eventually install 10.6. After that install, Excel became extremely slow, and other apps also took much longer to open. So I cleaned up Font Book, got rid of unnecessary widgets, emptied caches, and otherwise tried to streamline things. The only startup item I have is for the printer. The other day I realized that Firefox is guzzling any memory that looks free to it, even if I don't have 50 tabs open. Followed  steps recommended by Mozilla to solve that, but it seems to guzzle even more now (over 450 MB with 2 tabs open). I don't have Cocktail or Onyx, but maybe that would be the place to look next. I'll try resetting PRAM & SMP next.
    I do want to start backing up the files I'm currently working on on an hourly/weekly basis, if not the whole HD. I've been lazy about that. Since that will involve buying an external HD, I've been putting it off to see whether it's worth it to stick with this computer (and get an HD with Firewire 400) or wait & get an HD with Thunderbolt. I dropped in at the Apple store yesterday to look at the new Macs, and they seem to be running fine without any memory guzzlers (even on those with just 2 GB), though the app startup time was a bit slow.
    OWC looks great; I'd just have to either find a Swiss equivalent or wait till my next trip back to the U.S., which isn't around the corner.

  • Recommendations for cooling pad for 15" MBP

    Hi, I have found that I am using my macbook pro for watching movies and things in my bed a lot of the time. The computer gets really hot and the fans seem like they are going fast all the time.
    I was wondering if there are any recommendations for cooling pads that could help prevent this.
    Thanks for any help.

    To supplement the comments but Scott, I also believe that a cooling pad is not necessary. Your computer is engineered to cool itself. If you are concerned with higher than normal fan speeds and want to continue use on your bed, I would recommend something with a flat and hard surface such as a book or clipboard.
    Many laptop coolers feature active cooling using fans. Note that many of these are not engineered specifically for your Macbook Pro. I've used a Zalman cooler that pushed air towards the bottom of my laptop and actually increased operating temperatures. I hypothesize that the directional air and angle of the cooler impeded the Apple designed internal passive/active cooling of the laptop. These devices are also burdensome in that you need to supply power to them.
    In the end, the rather pricy Zalman cooler was more effective has a flat and hard surface than as an active cooler.
    There are alternatives to active cooling, including a mat that absorbs quite heat energy by transforming solid crystals into a liquid. From what I've read these are effective for some time, but once all of the crystals have been liquified, is longer as effective (at least until the crystals re-solidify).
    If you happen to find something that works particularly well with the Macbook Pro, please do share. Otherwise, a simple hard and flat surface will likely work very well and reduce heat/fan speeds while using your computer on an insulator (the bed).

  • Simple chatting application

    hi all,
    I am a new-comer to java tech , i am developing an intranet chatting application , so far i have succeeded to create a frame that has a jtable containing the host name and ip of all the users in my LAN.
    The problem now is i want to send a simple one or two liner msg to an ip (the one that i will select by clicking in the jtable cell) , but i do not wnat to create any ServerSocket as it complicates the matter , is it possible to build such a peer to peer communication program ???
    I have searched a lot on the net but all the matter that i could find has serversocket involved.
    The problem that i am facing is to establish a connection between two hosts running my application.
    If anyone has any sort of matter relating to this , please post a reply ....

    A server/client structure is really WAY easier to implement than peer to peer.
    All Instant Messengers (at least I know) are Server/Client structures. Thex have one server that temporarily saves all messages, and delivers them as soon as the right client asks for it.
    I think you should do this first, before you try some elaborated peer to peer solution.
    Your biggest problem is: when you send a message, and the other one isn't responding, who should take care of the message? A Server is perfect for this.

  • Apps recommendations for a laptop running on a SD card

    Hi everyone,
    Months ago, the hard drive of my netbook crashed.  Because 1.8" hard drives are rare and that SSD of the same size cost a lot, I decided to make it running on a SD card (class 10 for the speed at least ^^ ).
    I followd the wiki page about it and installed openbox and SLim on it.
    For now, I'm running wicd on it.
    Now I'm wondering which softwares I could put it on it.
    Because there are a huge number of these apps, I ask for recommendation while I'm searching and testing some of them.
    I need them to be [bold]lightweight[/bold] (because it is running on a 16 Go Class 10 SD card).
    So, what I need :
    -A file manager;
    -A VNC and RDP client;
    -An e-mail/calendar client;
    -A good code editor like notepad++ (I know that it is on Windows, but I use it even on Linux, but I want to avoid Wine on this laptop);
    -An openVPN client;
    -A terminal to remplace Xterminal;
    -A lightweigt tray manager.
    It is not much a problem if the softwares have not a GUI, but it is prefered.
    Any other recommendations for this netbook would be appreciated too ^^.
    Thanks in advance.

    I love command line, but because I have to use some tools only with a GUI provided by my college and that I've got courses concentrated on making GUI, I will need a GUI interface.
    For the code editor, because I wanted one with syntax highlighting and tab navigation, I found Geany (available in the community repository).
    It mistly needs Gtk and almost nothing more, so it's not environment dependdan
    For the two days I tested it, it goes pretty well.  Fast, lightweigt and there're a plenty bunch of fun features.
    I'll use it the time I learn to use correctly and efficiently vi .
    Thanks for rxvt-unicode, I like it more than xterminal (because of the tab feature) and pcmanfm is what I was searching for.
    Thanks a lot.

  • Need a printer recommendation for a small office

    hey folks, hoping someone might be able to suggest a recommendation for our business. We’ve had an OkiData color laser printer that’s lasted over 6 years but it’s been giving us some trouble over the last year and yesterday it stopped printing with an error we can’t resolve. Would have to bring a tech in to fix and we’d basically already decided that once this thing bit the dust we’d move on to something else. It’s time.
    We are looking for something in the $200-$400 range, would consider going a little higher if it was clearly worth it. We want something that connects wireless, prints quickly and reliably in Snow Leopard over an Airport Extreme network, decent color print quality is important but doesn’t have to be photo quality (we have an HP Photosmart for that kind of stuff), and it needs to have reasonable printing cost per page. We don’t print a tremendous amount of stuff, but we probably go through 100-200 pages a day and it adds up.
    Was looking at the HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 wireless and that looks like a nice unit except half the people who buy one hate it. Looks like HP quality control is lacking and if you get a good unit, great, but the odds are good you’ll get a lousy one.
    Also looking at the Brother HL-3070CW, but reviews say it has a high consumable cost.
    Basically, the more I look into this the more I head spins and now I've got myself wrapped around the axle and don’t know what to do.
    Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.

    I would steer clear of the 500 express. Since you seem to be new to cisco products, I would use the opportunity and buy what most of your potential customers already have. Get yourself a pix/asa and a 2900 series switch as first poster suggested. If you are interested in certifications, you will need to learn the command line interface. The 500 express will do you no good as it is all gui. This is only my opinion of course. Oh, and did I see not expensive and cisco in the same sentence. :)

  • I need ready code for a simple paint program today

    hi all I need ready code for a simple paint program today for me ics projct
    plz give me a halp on this give me what you have with you and it is so good if it look like this :
    Design a GUI based drawing Java application that works like a simple paint program
    1-There should be a number of buttons for choosing different shapes to draw. For example, there should be a button for rectangle. If user presses the rectangle button, then he can draw a rectangle using mouse. Similarly, there should be a button for each shape(rectangle, circle, ellipse, and line etc.
    2-The shapes can be filled with different colors.
    3-There should be option of moving .
    4- There should also be three menus including File, Shape, and Color menu.
    i. File menu can have menu items New and Exit. If user selects New, the drawing area will be cleared and all shapes will be erased.
    ii. Shape menu will serve the same purpose as of feature 2 described above. It will have menu items for drawing all the different shapes. For example, there will be menu item for rectangle; so user can draw a rectangle by selecting the menu item for rectangle.
    iii. Color menu will serve the same purpose as of feature 3 described above. It will have menu items for all the colors which are shown in color buttons. The user can select a color from this menu and then click inside a shape to fill it with the selected color.

    Read the Swing tutorial. There are sections on how to use menus and painting and all other kinds of stuff you need to do this homework assignment. Nobody here is going to write the code for you:

  • Recommendations for 5.1 speakers for Apple TV

    Hello
    I'm looking to buy a set of surround speakers to attach to the Optical Audio out of the Apple TV. I would like as simple a set up as possible rather than a full-blown home theater system with amplifier. Does anyone have any recommendations for speakers that would work?
    I'm finding it difficult to find this online.... I can find a lot of 5.1 computer speakers, but it is unclear whether most of them have an optical audio out or support true 5.1 audio. If anyone has found a speaker set up that works well I would really appreciate any recommendations.
    Many thanks!

    I can't really suggest any particular equipment, but you are going to need some sort of amplifier/processing unit. Speakers require an analogue signal, the output from the Apple TV is digital, you can't just plug speakers into the Apple TV. You may find some speakers with everything you need built in, but I've not seen such speakers.

  • Recommendation for external hardrive in price and quality

    Hi guys, I live in the UK, but still post your suggestions, been looking for a hardrive to store my photos and work from University, the things I never want to lose basically, so don't want to buy the wrong product and don't know good brands when it comes to Macs. Does thunderbolt make a huge difference also?
    Thanks!

    Thunderbolt is a fast interface, however just like SATA is a fast interface the speed of the storage drives come into play for what your going to get in terms of actual performance.
    Since your looking for a simple and reliable storage drive, that would mean a single spindle drive, 5,400 to 7,200 RPM's and Firewire 800/USB 3,2,1 would suffice.
    Mac's will get USB 3 eventually, like they got USB 2 eventually, Apple just wants to give Thunderbolt a chance to get established less everyone run out and buy USB 3 drives.
    Thunderbolt would be a waste as you'll never use it's speed because your going internal hard drive to external hard drive.
    If you had a internal SSD of 500GB and external SSD, then yes Thunderbolt would make a huge improvement.
    If you had a LOT of photo's and other data to transfer constantly then you'll see the speed between SSD and SSD on Thunderbolt.
    So for you a basic external hard drive for storage would do, but of course always maintain a duplicate copy.

    I'm trying to confirm my thoughts/assumptions on the development of custom screens.  We are installing the various pieces of NW04s and expect the majority of our users to access ECC transactions through the SAP Portal (using Web GUI for HTML).  Also, we will have a significant number of custom screen requirements; some may be enhancements to existing SAP delivered screens; others may be new screen development.
    What is SAP's latest recommendation for custom screen development?
    More specifically, what are various options and their advantages and disadvantages?
    For example:
    **Web Dynpro for Java
    + easy Portal integration
    - requires NW Dev Studio/Infrastructure
    **Web Dynpro for Java
    + Development tools within Workbench
    - more difficult to integrate in the Portal
    **Z transaction development with Screen Painter
    **HTML/JavaScript or similar
    etc....
    Thanks,
    Brian

    Brian,
    For me , I have only two choices
    1. Web Dynpro for Java
             Great front end IDE to work with, only issue could be the performance issue, while Java is trying to communicate with SAP ECC.
    2. Web Dynpro for ABAP
              Relatively new, however a good tool to work with. Performance improvement compared to Java Web Dynpro.
    I don't think you should have a concern of integrating this with Portal, as you have a separate iView for ABA Web Dynpro. The screen can be developed on the SAP ECC and then can be called from the Portal screen.
    You still have other options like developing normal dynpro - but that will not give a look and feel of the web interface. BSP / PCUI are the other choices but given the roadmap of SAP for UI, I would stick to Web Dynpro for ABAP / Java.
    Please let me know if you have any questions.
    Regards,
    Ravi
