The location was defined in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf file (an plain text file). So open it first by using gedit by executing gedit /etc/fonts/fonts.conf. The locations is /usr/share/fonts and /usr/local/share/fonts and /home/username/.fonts (a dot previous a folder’s name means that is a hidden folder).
If you use WIndows Explorer Nautilus, you could click Places > Home Folder > View > Show Hidden Files to shows the hidden folders and files on your Hard disk.

There are many tutorials on this subject, but you can use the CLI (command line interface) that is easier and simpler. For Java 5, you jsut have to execute:
sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jdk
And for java6, you can execute
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
Simple isn’t it. You can also Update the JDK (java development kit) by executing.
sudo update-alternatives –config java
I did finding those command beneficial when i was installing OpenBravo. An open source Point of Sales software that is cross platform build with Java.

If you want to increase the space on your hard disk, a viable option is by removing TEMPDB in SQL Server. Use this query to removing tempdb in your sql server.
USE master
GO
ALTER DATABASE TempDB MODIFY FILE
(NAME = tempdev, FILENAME = ‘D:\TEMPDB.MDF’)
GO
ALTER DATABASE TempDB MODIFY FILE
(NAME = templog, FILENAME = ‘D:\TEMPLOG.LDF’)
Just change the “D” with another drive you like to save the tempdb and templog files. After executing query above, stop and restart your sql server. After the query created a new file, you may delete the old files to enlarge free space in your hard disk.

Sometimes, your printing is on pending because other printing job is blocking the printing. If you face this you can delete the printing spooler queue by doing steps below:
- First, you have to halt the printer spool service, go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services; right click on Print Spooler service and click Stop
- Now, open Windows Explorer then go to C:\Windows\System32\spool\PRINTERS\ (note: you have to change the windows drive letter if you don’t install Windows on drive C)
- Delete all files inside the PRINTERS folder. Click CTRL + A to select all files and click Delete button on your keyboard to delete all the files.
- Now, open the Services window: right click on Print Spooler and click Start to activate the service again.
This technique also works even with network printers even on other platform (eg: Samba).
When i was using iTunes, i found an error ”applemobiledevicehelper has stopped working”. After browsing for a while, i found out the solution. The solution is by opening the Windows explorer and browse to “C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\bin” and then you have to delete all the files there. except two of them; but it doesnt matter. Now reopen your iTunes and it will works normal again.
I hope this article can helps….
Albeit the spread of many rumours about the release date of the new Windows 7 (the name for next generation of windows operating system), Microsoft is not going to go back on their word.
A spokesman which is a senior vice president of Microsoft Bill Veghte finally confirmed that the next operating system will be released on schedule and will not be advanecd. The schedule must go approximately three years after the official launch date of OS Windows Vista in January 2007.
But there is an interesting part in the letter, it is something Bill Viht explained in its message about the date of release. He said “You have asked more regular and predictable timetable for withdrawal OS Windows”, - he then writes. “You need to just ask to get an answer. But one question remains: how Microsoft intends to implement all this?”
