These direct steps (using the openjdk, not the Sun one) are confirmed to work…
Below, the following are our (typical) values :
MY_ANDROID_SDK : /path-to-android-sdk-installation-root/android-sdk-linux_86
MY_TITANIUM_DEVELOPER_DIR : /path-to-titanium-developer-installation-root/Titanium Developer-1.2.1
MY_TITANIUM_FILES_DIR : /path-to-my-home-directory/.titanium
MY_TITANIUM_SDK : /any-suitable-directory/
Note that MY_TITANIUM_FILES_DIR is the default created/used by the Titanium Developer program, which one runs from MY_TITANIUM_DEVELOPER_DIR using ./Titanium Developer
Check that the build tools are installed

Requirement : Get the 32-bit Android SDK to work on a 64-bit Fedora machine (Fedora 11 tested below), using the standard openjdk rather than Sun Java. No eclipse required, since development will be done using Titanium.
32-bit libraries are required. To clear out existing libraries (only if you know you haven’t got anything else [...]

Create /etc/udev/rules.d/91-android.rules with the contents :
SUBSYSTEM==”usb”, ATTRS{idVendor}==”0bb4″, SYMLINK+=”android_adb”, MODE=”0666″, OWNER=”rmbsanal”
Then
/etc/init.d/udev-post reload
and re-plug in your Android phone. That’s it.

Having to dual-boot into WinXP or Vista to run a tax program once a year is really bothersome. So, this year (the night before taxes were due), I set on the path of submitting my taxes without leaving Fedora.
I’d used TaxAct before (business and personal), so it was natural to want to [...]

NB : There’s even more information in the following excellent guide : http://scie.nti.st/2007/11/14/hosting-git-repositories-the-easy-and-secure-way
But there are some differences for Fedora that are worth spelling out.
Central Repository setup
First install gitosis :
central# yum install gitosis
Then create a dumb git user – noone will be logging in as this user: it’s just so that everything can be centralized :
central# [...]

This is pretty hackish – but it seems to work Ok.
Putting your Disclaimers on the Bottom
Edit the variable WEBCOPYRIGHT on the page TWiki.TWikiPreferences. For instance, make the line read like this : * Set WEBCOPYRIGHT = %MAKETEXT{”Copyright &©[_1] by PLATFORMedia LLC. ” args=”1999-%GMTIME{$year}%”}% This has been [...]

Situation
This machine previously had FC6 (upgraded FC1 -> FC2 -> FC3 -> FC4 -> FC5 -> FC6).However, the machine can’t boot from USB.
Solution suggested elsewhere :
Download ISO (F-7-i386-DVD.iso) via bittorrent
Copy ISO into /root/Fedora7/
mount the ISO via loopback :
cp the isolinux/vmlinuz and isolinux/initrd.img file from the iso to the /boot partition
update the grub.conf so that [...]

Even though the official instructions advise against it, it works fairly smoothly. In particular :
‘americas’ doesn’t have a (non-USB) DVD drive, and won’t boot of the USB external DVD-R;
‘cello’ and ‘flute’ are remote servers, so popping in the DVD is impossible.
Here’s a transcript of the not-so-smooth part :# yum install yum-fastestmirror# rpm -Uhv ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/6/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/fedora-release-*.noarch.rpm# [...]

ScitePM is a lightweight, Gtk-based project manager for use with the SciTE editor.
ScitePM allows the user to organize a set of files as a project, like most IDEs, and then open them within SciTE.
The User interface now defaults to being a ’skinny’ column of files / project items on the LHS [...]
