with Screenlets desktop revive

What into Windows Vista Widgets / Gadgets ( picture right) is known, is under Linux for some time. Screenlets are called the little add-on programs that animate the desktop and decorate. Microsoft has copied this from Linux and Mac OS and built into Windows Vista.

Ubuntu brings to repositories using the Screenlets-manager, which can start with the small utilities for the desktop and edit, as well as new Screenlets (which can be found on the Internet for example) can be installed. To install the screenlets manager, you have to install the package manager (Synaptic Package Manager) package "Screenlets" and you can liven up the desktop. It is advisable to start the screenlets manager ( education d under this paragraph) in the panel let (daemmon show in tray), so you can quickly and easily manage its Screenlets.












In screenlets-manager is already very much useful Screenlets are available. For example, the Clock (Clock), the Calendar or Sysmonitor, which indicates the current state of the system. Some Screenlets can be started from Screenlets Manager and reacted with a Harken "Auto start on login", the selected Screenlets start automatically at every system startup.

Started Screenlets can be when you move the pointer over the screenlets, with click Right-configure as in size, subject and other properties such as transparency. In the example right, the two Screenlets "Weather" and "Pidgin" is started. Weather displays the weather for the next 5 days and Pidgin shows the online contacts of the associated Instant Messenger "Pidgin" at. Both very useful, with the screenlets "Pidgin" the online world even easier since you can not continually open the buddy list has to see who is online and who is not.

These mini-utilities can be on the desktop "stick" and are thus part of the background. The important thing is to "click right mouse button -> Window> Keep above" should not set the Harken be because the other screenlets always in the foreground. can


In www.gnome-look.org there are many other Screenlets, which you download and install the Screenlets Manager. Among them are many of Screenlets already known, which differ only in the visual appearance, as well as completely new Screenlets, which were released by developers on Gnome look. Often fits the color or shape of a Screenlets rather than the current wallpaper or desktop theme. This this site is very useful since you can find many Screenlets in all colors and shapes, and certainly something for their own desktop.

So there is really no reason to expect inanimate desktop to have. The times when you loose files stored on the desktop are always gone and you have a lot of room to anchor, to such useful mini-applications such as current weather or online contacts established on the desktop!

more information and installation help find my friend in the wikis of Ubuntu user.

Windows programs under Linux using Wine, CrossOver & Co.


Who knows not the problem: the Linux community offers everything from software to
what you need, but would like to install a special program. With Wine brings Linux
already a program, under which let some Windows programs install.
Wine is a project which supports a lot of Windows software.
Among other games as well. A complete list of supported Windows software can be found on the project site in the Apps Database.

the program is not supported by Wine or is not, although it is available on the Wine Project page, help from commercial software such as CrossOver Codeweavers.

CrossOver is an enhanced version of Wine and supports more software than Wine.
In a specially designed for game version, CrossOver Games, can also be installed very many current 3D games under Linux. Assuming a good hardware that is for Windows also needed. What programs are supported, can also be found on the project website at "Compatibility"

If one is convinced of CrossOver, can first try to install a test version. Everything should work smoothly, everyone is free to purchase a license on the manufacturer's site. This one, however, requires an account with CodeWeavers, which is very quickly set up.

My conclusion: I have so far all the programs I was well on Windows (of course non-Windows programs) :-) can install with CrossOver Linux.

Wine however I was a bit disappointed because the game "Counter-Strike" although available, but install can not play. On the cause of research, I still am.
, though it is older games like Anno 1602, Rail Road Tycoon2 and Star Trek: The Next Generation install. Copy the installation directory of Windows games in a folder on the Linux machine, but these can easily part games like Star Wars Jedi Academy.

spring visit to the Google

at 30.10. We started with the 1st Part of our Google-course. All PC workstations were occupied and the participants, as well as exercise leaders were anxious to see if everything works the way we planned. So exciting because we had no experience with how the response time behavior affects, for example, if the same 16 participants cavort in Google Earth. Well, in retrospect can be said, depending on the selected function, we could be satisfied, when passing through New York with Street View it ever came to difficulties, not because of traffic but because of the thickness of the transmitted data streams. We also had
