On the 5th of July 2011, Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia (HUSM) has been chosen as one of the speakers in Malaysia Open Source Conference 2011. It was presented by Mr Yusdirman Bin Yusoff as “Open Source in Health Care: HUSM 10 Years of Innovation”.

Basically it’s about what and how HUSM as one among few hospitals in Malaysia managed to develop its own Total Hospital Information System thus saved millions ringgit of taxpayers money. This is actually the first step for us (IT Unit, HUSM) to show to the world what we have done in this 10 years where most hospitals not willing to do.

It has been quite a while since I wrote the previous guide. Since that particular post gained a lot of visitors, I decided to write a new guide based on the new Qt SDK and MySQL so that it will help people with new version for both softwares.

This should help you with NCReport in Qt.

This guide will help you (mostly will help me in the future) to configure your Ruby on Rails to support connection to Sybase.

I’m pretty sure I’m going to forget these steps, so, just to be safe, I’m putting it here. I’m dividing this tutorial into two sections, one for default MySQL that comes from Slackware and the other one is for new MySQL.
