			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is just a simple how-to for creating label for Tape Backup LTO (<a title="LTO on Wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_Tape-Open" target="_blank">Linear Tape Open</a>) and DLT (<a title="DLT on Wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Linear_Tape" target="_blank">Digital Linear Tape</a>) without label maker or alike, only using OpenOffice, here I use OpenOffice 3.0</p>
<p>I create this label manually because the labels will have different words in each label, while one produced by label maker application will have the same words, as it replicates the master copy the one that we design before.</p>
<p>Back to our label, now, let&#8217;s get started.</p>
<p>First launch the OpenOffice 3.0</p>
<p>For this example we will create label for DLT Tape Backup, although sample of Labels for DLT and LTO Tape Backup available to download at the end of this article.</p>
<p><span id="more-471"></span>From OpenOffice Welcome screen, click Text Document to create a new document</p>
<div id="attachment_473" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/02-create-new-document.png"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-473  " style="margin: 4px 6px;" title="02-create-new-document" src="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/02-create-new-document-150x150.png" alt="OO Welcome Screen" width="150" height="150" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">OO Welcome Screen</p></div>
<p>Insert Frame into document, to create base of the label an empty bordered box.</p>
<div id="attachment_476" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/03-insert-frame-to-document.png"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-476  " title="03-insert-frame-to-document" src="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/03-insert-frame-to-document-150x150.png" alt="Insert Frame" width="150" height="150" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Insert Frame</p></div>
<p>Modify the Frame property, see screenshot below, don&#8217;t forget to set Anchor to &#8220;As character&#8221;.<br />
DLT label is in inch, note also in a ruler, 1 inch is divided into 16 strips, so half an inch is 8/16 converted to decimal notation as 0.5&#8243;.</p>
<p>Size of DLT label is 36 x 16 strips, converted to decimal:</p>
<ul>
<li>Width : 36/16 = 2.25&#8243;</li>
<li>Height: 13/16 = 0.81&#8243;</li>
</ul>
<p>We enter those values into Size Height and Width fields of Frame property.<br />
Try to compare label on screen with the actual one, if you set OpenOffice screen zoom to 100% you will find that Frame size we just created will be about the same size with the actual label. It is truly WYSIWYG, well, almost <img src='http://deewriting.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<div id="attachment_477" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/04-modify-frame-property.png"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-477 " title="04-modify-frame-property" src="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/04-modify-frame-property-150x150.png" alt="Frame property" width="150" height="150" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Frame property</p></div>
<p>You can also set Borders and Background as you want, but for this example I will set &#8220;Spacing to contents&#8221; to 0.04&#8243;, and Background set to default white color.</p>
<div id="attachment_482" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/05-modify-frame-property-borders.png"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-482 " title="05-modify-frame-property-borders" src="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/05-modify-frame-property-borders-150x150.png" alt="Frame property, border" width="150" height="150" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Frame property, border</p></div>
<p>After the Frame is set, we can start to fill the blank frame/ label with a logo for example, you can Copy from graphics editor, like MS Paint, then Paste inside the Frame</p>
<div id="attachment_483" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 250px"><a href="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/06-frame-paste-picture.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-483 " title="06-frame-paste-picture" src="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/06-frame-paste-picture.png" alt="Paste a graphics" width="240" height="103" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Paste a graphics</p></div>
<p>then add text box as many as you need,</p>
<div id="attachment_484" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 250px"><a href="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/07-frame-add-text.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-484 " title="07-frame-add-text" src="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/07-frame-add-text.png" alt="Add text" width="240" height="103" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Add text</p></div>
<p>That is it.<br />
Now you need to replicate the label to fill the whole paper, all you need is just the old Copy / Paste. You can edit each text in each label as you see it fit.</p>
<div id="attachment_485" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/08-replicate-frame.png"><img class="size-medium wp-image-485 " title="08-replicate-frame" src="http://deewriting.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/08-replicate-frame-300x170.png" alt="08-replicate-frame" width="300" height="170" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Replicate label</p></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">Using this simple technique you will be able to create any label, or CD/DVD Cover, or jewel case, or kids name&#8217;s label, etc&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I actually use both label for Tape Backup DLT and LTO, and print them using Color Deskjet on A4 Self-adhesive paper.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is nothing to do with that Java related hibernate technology, more about overlooking of simple thing <img src='http://deewriting.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_neutral.gif' alt=':|' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Harddrive of my HP Pavilion laptop was crashed, totally broken, thus I&#8217;ve installed new hard drive, reinstall XP and all needed drivers, and about 2 hours it&#8217;s ready filled data from the backup.<br />
<span id="more-158"></span><br />
What happenned then was when I was about to hibernate that laptop: the Stand-by button was grayed out. I thought it&#8217;s more to ACPI things, battery, and power management.<br />
After about an hour found nothing, a friend told me about updating the graphic adapter drivers, &#8220;what ? what&#8217;s gfx adapter to do with hibernate ?&#8221; I laughed silently, but I did as I told, downloaded gfx driver from HP and installed, restart the laptop as it said.<br />
&#8230; and to my surprise, Hibernate tab appeared in Power Options Properties.</p>
<p>I never experienced that problem before, and maybe there&#8217;s problem with gfx driver, but what I knew was do not laugh at any suggestions though how silly it seems at first.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There&#8217;s a funny thing with this thing: need password to uninstall while we did not put one when we installed.</p>
<p>When my boss decided to replace Symantec Anti Virus CE we encountered this problem. I consulted my log book when we did installation and found no password was asked regarding installation. Sure about that, I asked Mr Google, and seemed others got this also.<br />
<span id="more-132"></span><br />
After some minutes, I got the answer, just put follow :<br />
<code><br />
Find Reg Key:<br />
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREINTELLANDESKVIRUSPROTECT6<br />
CURRENTVERSIONADMINISTARTORONLYSECURITY</code></p>
<p>Set key: USEVPUNINSTALLPASSWORD to 0 (zero)</p>
<p>No password will be asked during uninstallation.</p>
<p>I thought, why do we, the legitimate users, hard to do uninstallation while pest software easily knock off the protection ? SAV can not “up” on some of the computers because of some kind of spyware.</p>
<p>See, rulez only for honest people&#8230;</p>
