XPaint is a color image editing tool that features most standard paint program options. It allows you to edit multiple images simultaneously and supports various formats, including .ppm, .xbm, .tiff, and so on.

The functionality of XPaint is divided into a toolbox area for selecting the current paint operation and paint windows for modifications and creating images. Each paint window has access to its own color palette and set of patterns, although the paint operation in use is globally selected for all windows. Further information on using XPaint is available by starting it up and accessing its ‘Help’ button.

Problem one to be expected is ” I cannot Boot Linux Anymore”. It seems that you have successfully installed the Linux distro of your choice. Then one fine day you may a change to your Windows OS- Windows 09 , XP or Vista / System 7/ Suddenly Linux no longer seems to boot and indeed stops working. You no longer see the lilo boot prompt. so you can no longer specify that indeed you wan to boot Linux.

What to do ? It seems that various operating systems tend to think that they are the only ones in the universe. It not unlike media centers in Windows that when newly installed take over and make themselves l”King” the “default” setup.

Therefore when the new Operating System is installed they write things to the area of the system or specifically the hard drive – or now sometimes solid state “hard drives”, called the Master Boot Record (MBR). This process overlays and overwrites the basic Linux boot loader (called LILO) and stops you dead in your tracks from booting Linux.

Overall the best correction is a good prevention . Make an emergency floppy or usb stick as a boot disk.

Keep this handy, when you do update or change your system ( or during any other significant event in your “Linux career” , such as repartitioning your disks or rebuilding your kernel.

Thus if you make a mistake then you can boot with your boot device – be it floppy or usb stick , or cd / dvd.

Its not unlike safe mode in Windows.

Then when you have rebooted your system using your boot device , simply log on as “root”, then type LILO on the command line. This will repair the MBR ( Master Boot Record) reinstalling Lilo.

You are now off to the races !!!

After this point you may well be asked how many colors ( colours) you would like to display at any one time on the computer monitor screen.  Its a trade off – the higher the more resolution of visual appearance , wheras on the other hand the demands on your system and computer system response time will be decreased.  Its a trade-off to your needs and the needs of your various software programs , internet dial up vs broadband speeds and indeed in the end what really makes a difference for your computing and internet needs.

While it can be said that the more and the higher the resolution that you display overall – the better generally – however you are in the end limited by the size of your video memory.  You may have an integrated, ( that is built in on the computer motherboard) video card so by pushing up your system you are taking system ram and resources from your main system.  If you have an add on video card – whether it as an older PCI card , in a throw away computer system that you are using to set up a Linux system ,  a somewhat newer or similar vintage AGP video card setup or even the newest standard PCI express video card.

The will then see a listing on your computer monitor screen- the terminal , the user and the log-in time.   Note that in real life computer situations the exact output from the UNIX  “who”  command varies from one version of UNIX to another , but it almost always can be counted on to contain at least these listings and parameters .    In addition you can always type out  the command line “who am I “  and UNIX will simply print just that very line for the terminal ( or terminal window), into which you typed that very command.

Next in line , with powerful UNIX command lines commands is the command “finger”, which is a considerably more powerful informative tool. The finger command produces a much more useful as well as elaborate report than does the  “WHO” command.

Although “finger” reports the same stuff as the command “who”  does it also looks up as well the user’s  real name ( if it is in the user’s password file), and tells how long the terminal itself has been idle ( that is how long since the user typed something”.  You can still see the vestiges of UNIX commands and processes even now in such basic and standard programs as Window’s based MSN Messenger systems and the like.
