    Hi!

    > I was doing well but yet couldn’t install IRC cause I don’t have root access on my own lab machine. (Why god why?)

    That sucks. You should be able to install without root, though, something like:

    cd
    mkdir local
    cd irc-client
    ./configure –prefix=/home/you/local
    make
    make install
    export PATH=/home/you/local/bin/
    irc-client

    (Where irc-client is whichever you prefer; I find running irssi inside screen (yay, screen!) to be helpful if you can get to your lab machine from home, since that way you never have to miss anything that’s said while you aren’t around..)

    > – I wished there could be another way (like google talk or yahoo messenger) to chat with my mentors when there’s no IRC around.

    Yeah, I should look at installing one.

    > – I’ve add Gnome planet to my RSS reader, is there also a planet for WSOP students?

    Not yet, but I’ll get one set up now that we have the first person to add to it. :)

    > – (I got an error when trying to add chris’s blog to rss reader)

    Huh. Can you tell me what the error was, and which RSS reader?

    > – How can I add my weblog to feeds list of gnome planet ?

    I’ll check whether we’re adding students to it; I think the SoC students are just on their own planet rather than the main one for now.

    > – It seems that I need a gnome.org CVS account with a registered public SSH key to check out a code, right ?

    No, there’s also anonymous read-only CVS, like so:

    export CVSROOT=”:pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome”
    cvs co -z3 vte
    cvs co -z3 gnome-terminal

    Hope that helps. :)

    - Chris.

    Ahh, I just got home with my fedora core CDs! thanks for your help though, I’ll ask my supervisor to change root’s password for me once he gets back.

    My gmail account is monia.gh and I’m online with that. I also use yahoo and msn messengers. It’s your call to use which one (if and only if no IRC was around!)

    I get the error when trying to add http://blog.printf.net/xml/rss20/feed.xml
    to RssReader 1.0.88.0 (in windows ) downloaded from
    http://www.rssreader.com/download.htm
    the message is:

    add a new feed failed
    Feed contains a XML syntax error:
    there is an invalid character in the given encoding. Line 61, position 124.

    (May be it’s because of their RSS versions)

    Thanks again for your help :)

    Best Regards

    Monia

    Thanks! It didn’t like some accented characters I’d used. I’ve got rid of those — maybe it works now?
