sending sms via bluetooth

I know many of you already know it but still...........
This works on almost all Nokia phones having cut/paste/mark option in sms.
This may be seems useless when you have sms pack but may be useful when you are running low on balance.
Here are the steps::
1. Open the msg you want to send through sms
2. You can see copy all or mark options then mark and copy your sms accordingly
3. Now open notes then go to make a new note then paste the contents
4. Now send the note to your frnd through bluetooth or infrared 


Hope this might be helpful to you somewhere

Using 7zip as a file splitter

During my use of PC, I was trapped many time due to file size. Like transfering 4 gb file by 2 gb pendrive.
To use 7zip as a file splitter you have to right click on desired file then go to 7zip>add to archive .. then a dialog box appears you can see multiples option to create archive. To give a custom size of your archive use the option Split to volume, bytes:.. Hre you can give custome size like 100M-for 100MB for each archive .
Please make sure to append MB/KB/GB after the numerical value otherwise the default is in Bytes...

To merge file right click on first archive created then 7zip>open archive then extract that file....

or
you may use 7zFM.exe. This is located in
program files>7zip>7zFM.exe
open this exe and go to the folder in which the desired file lies. Right click on that file you will option of split file. Then select your size to fit(floppy, cd, DVD). To merge file then do the same as above but instead of splitting you have to click on combine files...make sure you put all the splitted file in the same directory ..

In linux you can go with wine+7zip

How to enable root account in Ubuntu/mint

Although sudo itself is enough for all workouts...but still seeing # gives a different sense ...
This small hack also enables logging to root account through GUI....
So here is the command (very simple)..In ubuntu based distro the root account doesn't have a password so what we do is to give a passwd to the root account .
Here is the command...

sudo passwd

This will ask first your passwd then new passwd for the root..give a strong passwd and enjoy(root account)....but be careful..
