Installing libcups.so.2 and libpopt.so.0 in Fedora 64bit (x86_64)

Well this is the first time i am using Fedora or any variant of linux
with the 64bit arch support. So there are some things slowing my work
down, getting the printer to work! LOL

so my printer is Canon Pixma ip2770, i downloaded the rpm driver from
the official canon site. but then it gaves out an error....

error: Failed dependencies:
libcups.so.2 is needed by cnijfilter-common-3.30-1.i386
libpopt.so.0 is needed by cnijfilter-common-3.30-1.i386

so i checked google and knew that libcups got some thing connected
with cups-libs
and libpopt with popt

to solve this, you need to install cups-libs and popt but the 32bit package.

su -c 'yum install popt.i686 cups-libs.i686'

then try to install using the install script from Canon site, works
like a charm.

Setting up pidgin in UTP

You may be able to work around it by choosing a "Connection security"
setting of "Use old-style SSL", specifying a "Connect port" of 443 and
a "Connection server" of "talk.google.com" in the "Advanced" settings
of your account in Pidgin.

Workflow Penggunaan Microsoft Office pada Linux

Kebiasaan pengguna yang nak gunakan libreoffice atau openoffice menghadapi masalah bila tak selesa, atau tak berapa mahir dgn office suite selain dari M$ Office. So ade la beberapa idea untuk workflow gunakan M$ Office pada linux

1. Virtualbox
Dapatkan windows XP(sebab ringan dari Win7) dan virtual box.
Install windows XP dalam virtual box
Setkan sharing folder.
Install office
Guna office, bila selesai, save as pdf
Letak di sharing folder
Print guna linux.

2. Wine(mungkin tak stable)
Dapatkan installer office.
Install wine
Install office guna wine.
Gunakan office
Print(tak tau sama ada boleh atau tidak.)
Masalah wine, font rendering tak sama dgn windows, so takut dokumen akan nampak cacat.
