Free 1.5.1 software for linux

Parted Magic is a ~30mb LiveCD/USB with its only purpose being partitioning hard drives. Although GParted and Parted are the main programs, the CD/USB also offers programs like partimage, testdisk, fdisk, sfdisk, dd, etc...
Parted Magic is based on my work from the GParted LiveCD project and falls under the terms of the GPL.
Enhancements:
- We added dd_rhelp, sdparm, mbr, and xfburn for starters. Updated programs: linux-2.6.22, e2fsprogs-1.40.2, ntfs-3g-1.710, dd_rescue-1.13, ddrescue-1.5, leafpad-0.8.11, file-4.21, testdisk-6.7, mdadm-2.6.1, pciutils-2.2.5, syslinux-3.51, isomaster-1.0, hdparm-7.4, xfsprogs_2.8.21-1, busybox-1.5.1, and usbutils-0.72. All menus are bypassed now. After the syslinux menu, it boots to the desktop without any other interruptions. You can now create the LiveUSB from the LiveCD by using our new USB Operations program...

g3data is used for extracting data from graphs. In publications data is usually presented as graphs, while the actual data is often missing. The project makes the extracting process much easier. The commercially available alternative is called data thief.
Main features:
- Zoom windows for maximum accuracy
- Can handle logarithmic scales and non-ortogonal graphs
- Tabbed processing of multiple images consequetively
Enhancements:
- Added basic drag-n-drop support, current version only supports uri drops.
- Added preliminary basis for datapoint movement.
- Some of the graph properties are now hideable, to resolv issues on lower resolution screens.

bksys is a framework based on scons for detecting the environment, compiling applications and installing them.
It replaces the whole GNU autotool chain (automake, autoconf, aclocal, autoheader, libtool) and depends on python only. It features kde3, qt4 and wxwidgets examples.
The scripts are currently used by many kde projects like rosegarden, kdissert, codeine, kshaderdesigner or linpacker.
Enhancements:
- Split between builddir and srcdir
- New logging function to enable or disable the coloured output (enabled by default)
- Most of the generic code (dist, distclean) was moved to the modules

*and all others who want to view GPS track logs (para-glider pilots, hang-glider pilots and even pilots of radio-controlled (sail)planes.
- GPLIGC, analysation
- openGLIGCexplorer, 3d visualisation (can be used as a viewer for digital elevation data too)
GPLIGC can be used on Linux, Unix, Windows and Mac OS X.
GPLIGC application can be used under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).
Enhancements:
- This release fixes a few bugs.
- Some options were added that allow you to specify a destination folder and filenames for screenshots.

XAR application aims to provide an easily extensible archive format.

Important design decisions include an easily extensible XML table of contents for random access to archived files, storing the toc at the beginning of the archive to allow for efficient handling of streamed archives, the ability to handle files of arbitrarily large sizes, the ability to choose independent encodings for individual files in the archive, the ability to store checksums for individual files in both compressed and uncompressed form, and the ability to query the table of contents rich meta-data.

The ultimate goal of the XAR project is to provide an archive format suitable for packaging software created by DarwinPorts. (Note it is a work in progress, so please feel free to make suggestions and report bugs in the xar Bugzilla product.)

Installation:

cd xar/src
./configure
make
sudo make install

LyX is an advanced open source document processor that encourages an approach to writing based on the structure of your documents, not their appearance. LyX lets you concentrate on writing, leaving details of visual layout to the software.

LyX runs on many Unix platforms, OS/2, and under Windows/Cygwin (this port requires an X server). LyX project can also run natively on Mac OS X, thanks to the Qt/Mac library.

LyX produces high quality, professional output -- using LaTeX, an industrial strength typesetting engine, in the background; LyX is far more than a front-end to LaTeX, however. No knowledge of LaTeX is necessary to use LyX, although it will give a user more power.

LyX is stable and fully featured. It has been used for documents as large as a thesis, or as small as a business letter. Despite its simple GUI interface (available in many languages), it supports tables, figures, and hyperlinked cross-references, and has a best-of-breed math editor.

phpOpenTracker is a framework solution for the analysis of website traffic and visitor analysis.
It features a logging engine that, either invoked as a web-bug by a HTML tag or embedded with two lines of code into your PHP application, logs each request to a website into a database. One installation of phpOpenTracker can track an arbitrary number of web-sites.
Through the phpOpenTracker API module you can easily access the gathered data and perform complex operations on it, like for instance the analysis of your visitors clickpaths.
The analysis of clickpaths is essential when you want to measure the usability of your website. phpOpenTrackers API functions shortest_paths and top_paths help to answer questions like: Is the navigation intuitive enough? Do visitors find the shortest, most direct way from A to B? How are ads percepted?
On what document do they leave the website -- and where to? The answers to these questions help you to improve the user experience and the way your website is percepted by your customers.
Main features:
- Complete framework for the analysis of website traffic and visitor analysis.
- Highly optimized logging engine that stores the access information into a database.
- Powerful interface to access the gathered data and perform operations on it: from simple statistical queries to the complex analysis of the visitors clickpaths.
- Can be used to track both dynamic and static pages.
- Can be invoked directly from within PHP applications, for instance by a Content Management System, or through a HTML image tag -- a so called Web Bug.
- One installation of phpOpenTracker may track an arbitrary number of different web sites.
