Securing Your MySQL Installation

Many distributions of Linux have an option to install MySQL. In this case, or even if you compile MySQL, the default password is blank.
Make sure that you set password for the root user. This is the command:
mysql -u root mysql
SET PASSWORD FOR ‘root’@'localhost’ = PASSWORD(’s3cr3tp4s5w0rd’);

The Latest Screenshot

Debian Etch (4.0) + Fluxbox

ERROR: QEMU requires SDL

ERROR: QEMU requires SDL or Cocoa for graphical output
To build QEMU without graphical output configure with –disable-gfx-check
Note that this will disable all output from the virtual graphics card.
While compiling I got the following errors. To solve this problem, I’ve to install SDL library.
sudo apt-get install libsdl-dev
Should works with Ubuntu or any Debian-based distro.
