Fedora in School

After getting two computers as donation, we are able to install Fedora at Bijra High School. Previously the single box was running Debian. If you see the enthusiasm among the students about computer, you will surely fill same :)
You can read the full story here.
Still looking for some donation of old boxes, so that we can enable LTSP there. If you can arrange some, please give me a mail.

gcc vs turboc

The war started between me & Ria. It was my worst fear and it came true today. We just started arguing over gcc & turboc. She was telling that turboc is better 'coz in the college turboc is the only choice. She fixed her mind on this.
The fight was like this..

Q: Why turboc is good?
A: Both clrscr() & getch() functions are there :)
Q: Why gcc is bad?
A: 'Coz other students in the college are not using it.

When she said "Windows is better than Linux", I just hung up. I don't know when I am going to call her back. :(
Still it is the choice, the choice of freedom.

Yesterday something happened

That's sure.
I don't know what?
I don't know why?
But I did that.
Monday night was the most miserable night in my life. May be, due to that shock I did that.
I am not feeling well, too much stress for me.

Q: What I did?
Ans:
In the afternoon just called her mom, said a few general words, and then, simply told that "I want to marry your daughter".
Reply came in the usual way, she didn't want to think about it . So hope for the best in the future.

Q: What came next?
Ans:
Around 9.30 pm I got a call from her mom, I was afraid. She told, that they thought about me, and decided that there is no problem about the marriage :)
I was just jumping around the house. Uhh!! What a call!!
Now I am flying..............

Latest news:
Came back to the earth 'coz I am sick :(

Resize image

use QT :)
-------------------------------------------------------
from qt import QImage
import sys

qm = QImage(sys.argv[1])
qm = qm.scale(600,480,QImage.ScaleMin)
qm.save('ch-'+sys.argv[1],'JPEG',100)

-------------------------------------------------------
o/p is good enough

Update:

If you find the output image is not good enough, then you might want to use
-------------------------------------------------
qm = qm.smoothScale(600,480,QImage.ScaleMin)
-------------------------------------------------
