Installing GUI under CentOS 6

If you installed using a text login and wish to switch to a graphical login, follow this procedure.

1) If you are not already root, switch users to the root account:

su -

Provide the administrator password when prompted.

2) If you have not already done so, install the X Window System and a graphical desktop environment. For example, to install the GNOME desktop environment, use this command:

yum groupinstall "X Window System" Desktop

To install the KDE desktop environment, use:

yum groupinstall "X Window System" "KDE Desktop"

This step may take some time as your Linux system downloads and installs additional software. You may be asked to provide the installation media depending on your original installation source.

3) Run the following command to edit the /etc/inittab file:

vi /etc/inittab

4) Press the 'i' key to enter insert mode.

5) Find the line that includes the text initdefault.

To change from a console to a graphical login, you should change the number in the line id:3:initdefault: from a 3 to a 5.

6) Type :wq and press the Enter key to save the file and exit the vi text editor.

If you want to go in graphical environment before restarting the server. Just type

#yum startx

Otherwise, Reboot the system using the reboot command. Your system will restart and present a graphical login.

How to draw Dynamic Line or Timeseries Chart in Java using jfreechart library?

Today we are going to write a code to draw a dynamic timeseries-cum-line chart in java. The only difference between simple and dynamic chart is that a dynamic event is used to create a new series and update the graph. In out example we are using timer which automatically calls a funtion after every 1/4 th second and graph is updated with random data. Let's try with the code : Note : I had tried my best to provide complete documentation along with code. If at any time anyone have any doubt or question please post in comments section. DynamicLineAndTimeSeriesChart.java import java.awt.BorderLayout; import java.awt.Color; import java.awt.event.ActionEvent; import java.awt.event.ActionListener; import javax.swing.Timer; import javax.swing.JPanel; import org.jfree.chart.ChartFactory; import org.jfree.chart.ChartPanel; import org.jfree.chart.JFreeChart; import org.jfree.chart.axis.ValueAxis; import org.jfree.chart.plot.XYPlot; import

Flickr and OAuth

What is Flickr? I think you landed on this page because you know what Flickr is, so let’s come to the point and discuss about the API. Why am explaining? Although each and everything, about API, is well documented on Flickr website here , I'm just trying to explain the whole process by dividing it into small parts. Old Authentication API The current Flickr authorization scheme is not the first one it used. In the early days of Flickr, users granted the power to an app to act on their behalf by giving the apps their Flickr username and password. Doing so meant that in order to revoke an app’s permission, users would have to change their Flickr password. Of course, doing that would also instantly revoke permissions of other third-party apps with knowledge of the user’s password. The new authorization scheme is meant to correct obvious problems with the old scheme. Why should you as a user have to use your Flickr password for anything other than your dealings with Flickr?
