IBM RAD 7.5 on Ubuntu Karmic 32 Bit

Lets assume you were using ubuntu 9.04 jaunty and now you have upgraded your distribution to 9.10 karmic. Before i get into 9.10 version i had my RAD 7.5 installed and running. Then decided to upgrade my distro. I’ve read an article and futures of karmic distro, that says plenty of packages getting updated. After getting done with upgrade process i tried to run my RAD 7.5 , it was ok for the first time but there were plenty of errors on screen.

First of all when you upgrade your distro, the gcc++ package gets upgareded so libstdc++.so.5 file to libstdc++.so.6 .Unfortunately RAD 7.5 version looks for libstdc++.5.so file on your system. You have to download this file. Download it by using link below;

http://packages.debian.org/stable/base/libstdc++5

Then install this deb package (If you are running on another linux distro you have to place it just next to where your libstdc++.6.so file, you can use “locate libstdc++.so.6″ command to see where your file is). Then copy below bash script and paste it any of your text editor, save it as “run.sh”. From now on, you can use this script to run your RAD 7.5.

#!/bin/bash
export GTK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1
/where/your/RADis &

After this process your problem should be gone. Have fun.

Stargate Universe

by Samet Kilictas on Nov.10, 2009, under General, Movie

I’m fan of Stargate series. Unfortunately,  Just realized that stargate producers have been annuonced stargate universe series. Today i have watched the first chapter and it was as good as previous series.

The Only Mission Is Survival!
The Previously unknown purpose of the “Ninth Cheveron” is revealed, and ends up taking a team to an Ancient ship “Destiny”, a ship built millions of years ago by the Ancients, used to seed Distant galaxies with Stargates. This team, led by Dr. David Rush and Colonel Everet Young, are trapped on the ship, unable to change its programmed mission, and encounter new races, new technology and new enemies, as the runaway ship takes them to the far ends of the Universe

LaTeX equations on web? Is that all you want?

by Samet Kilictas on Nov.10, 2009, under Tips

Yes dear readers! It is really cool to have latex equations on web. There is an undocumented future of Google Chart API. It is easy to use as much as API itself. For instance, you need to include the Schrödinger equation your web page. Let’s construct an url like this:

http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=tx&chf=bg,s,FFFFFF00&chco=AACCFF&chl=i\hbar\frac{\partial}{\partial t} \Psi(\mathbf{r},\,t) = \hat H \Psi(\mathbf{r},t)

Put your code in the chl parameter. The chf parameter lets you specify a background color in RGBA, chco lets you set the foreground color in RGB. When you drop it in inside of an image tag you get this:

If you anticipate making 250,000 calls to the chart server a day, contact Google first at chart-api-notifications@google.com. There’s no limit to how much you can use it, but they reserve the right to turn you off.
