ADJUST RESOLUTION IN VM WARE

I was installing Debian on VMware and there encountered a problem with the resolution of the OS using it virtual. The resolution of the Display was not matching with the resolution of the screen, which was 1920x1080. I checked the Display application of Debian, not much use, I found. Then to the resolutions in the Virtual Machine Settings, again no much improvement. After going through the xrandr command of Debian, it was found helpful.

Copy the following lines of commands and paste it in a file with .sh extension and save it in any Directory, to make it ease put it in the Desktop.

xrandr --newmode "1920x1080"  173.00  1920 2048 2248 2576  1080 1083 1088 1120 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode Virtual1 1920x1080
xrandr --output Virtual1 --mode 1920x1080

I have used 1920x1080 because that was my system resoluton. You can replace the value by the value which you would like to have your screen adjusted to. Now, open the Terminal and type in the command to change the working directory to the location where you have saved the file.

cd /home/user/<Directory>

If the file is saved in Desktop, type in  cd /home/user/Desktop/

Then type
chmod +x <filename>.sh
Followed by:
./<filename>.sh

After the execution, the resolution is to be adjusted to 1920x1080. Least probably, there can be a chace that you hace to execute the last statement each time you turn on your Vitual Machine.

This method can be used for all Dedian Distributions like Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Discreete OS, Kali Linux and so on.

MORE ABOUT RANSOMWARES. PART 1

 Not long ago, a man committed suicide after an automatically generated notice from a computer virus threatened him with jail unless he paid a ransom thousands of dollars. The year was 2014. As incredible as the story seems, it marked the first known time a computer virus actually killed somebody. The next generations stole cash from users around the globe, and Cryptolocker raised the stakes – holding data of hundreds of thousands of users hostage. Despite successive short-lived take downs, the malware has made a comeback as CTB (Curve-Tor-Bitcoin) Locker. This challenging breed of malware is continuously improving, reaching new levels of complexity as smartphones and tablets are increasingly used to store crucial personal and enterprise-level documents. Bitdefender, the anti-malware solutions provider, zooms in on the subject to show how this type of virus works and to tell users how to prevent being locked out and extorted. What is ransomware? Ransomware is a type of malware th...

SHE, HE TOLD ABOUT

Her handwriting was so beautiful. Each letter had it's own boldness, elegance and I loved to look at them. A pen and a white space, even in a notice, was enough for her to begin. She would write and then look at it, enjoys it's beauty, goes into a serious thought and ends with a small smile. Every of those sequential actions I remember. It is so normal, universal and a must go reality that time moves foreward. Ages, days, hours, everything passes. My happiness on seeing those fonts kept on changing its demensions. My skin began to paint itself lines and so do she. Still, she wrote. But now there is a difference. As timestamps move, the interpretations made by my brain on those texts perplexed from simple happiness to pride, then to a feeling of belongingness, to love, to possessiveness, to responsibility to trust, to many other emotions for which I am weak in English to find words to substitute for and finally to a fear; a fear of death. Wrong. Perfectly wrong. Its not fear. ...
