Preserved Thoughts

The Auto Assign Role module of Drupal is designed to provide an automatic role assignment to newly created user accounts. It will also allow users to choose their own role if permitted by the Drupal site administrator. This module can also be used to provide paths that will trigger a specific user role when an account is created.

A new version of the Auto Assign Role module has been released so I updated my 6.x-1.11 version to 6.x-1.2.

Here are the steps in upgrading this module:

1. From the Linux/Unix console, download the new Auto Assign Role module from the Drupal.org website using the wget or fetch command.

$ wget http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/autoassignrole-6.x-1.2.tar.gz

2. Extract the autoassignrole-6.x-1.2.tar.gz file

$ tar xzvf autoassignrole-6.x-1.2.tar.gz

3. Backup the old Auto assign role module

$ mkdir autoassignrole-old

Now that I have already fixed my problem with my SATA HD in Ubuntu Linux 10.04 Lucid Lynx, I then searched google if there is a 64bit version of the Adobe Flash 10 plugin.

A week ago, when I first installed in my PC an Ubuntu Linux 8.04 Hardy Heron, I found this blog post on how to make flash work in a 64-bit Firefox browser - of course in a 64-bit Ubuntu Linux. I tried it and although I have encountered a minor problem with the script and made a minor modification, but the script work as expected!
