Free crystal clear sound software for linux

Crystal Diamond Icons is a fantastic and realistic icon theme for Kde, a graphical interface for linux.

I take the best icons from Realistik, Vista Ispirate, Nuove XT, Crystal Clear, OSX, Debian Icons and many other and I made this Icon Theme. The icons are not mine.

There are different mod such classical, shining, gentoo, arch, debian and kubuntu. The only difference between "Mods" is Kmenu except for Debian Mod (also Kcontrol, Trash and Folder Icon).

There are more icons for one application. For example there are 6 different icons for Firefox! If you like, change into your favourite icon! (Left click, change icon). In the second image for exaple, I change firefox icon.

There are many Mod for you distro:

* Classical
* Shining
* Gentoo
* Debian
* Kubuntu
* Arch
* FreeBsd/PcBsd
* Fedora/Red Hat
* MacOsX
* MacOsX Finder
* Mandriva
* Slackware
* Suse Classic
* Suse Alternative
* Ubuntu

You can see it in the screenshot!

crystal xcursors provides a crystal look&feel cursor pack.
X11 mouse theme with the crystal look&feel,there are four versions in the package.
Enhancements:
- this release only fixes some hot spot-related bugs into the left-handed version. Many thanks to Markus Bauer and Bastian Venthur for the report and patch.

Crystal Core is the main Crystal Space demo game. The project makes heavy use of CEL and CELstart. It is going to be a first person shooter with many quests and puzzle elements. The three main purposes of Crystal Core are:
- Be a good and playable game.
- Be a good tutorial on how to make games using Crystal Space, CEL, and CELstart.
- Spawn a modding community. Crystal Core is heavily modular and extensible.
Main features:
- A game menu where you can start the game and change a few options.
- Two levels out of the game.
- Two creatures that will try to follow and attack you.
- A small quest that you have to solve in order to get access to some part of the level.
- Nice music and sound effects.
- Working inventory system, health, and ammo system.

3D Spatialization of Sound is a Linux/X11 port of the 3D spatializer library from the CRC.

This program creates "directional" stereo sound from mono source. CRC folks told me I shouldnt have raised the sampling frequency without adjusting other stuff.

Oh well. This was a proof-of-concept type project anyway. I think to get correct 3D effect, you need to drop sampling rate back to 11025.

To Build the X11 implementation:

1. make
2. cp audio-filter /usr/local/bin
3. mpg123 -m -s some_music.mp3 | audio-filter | aplay -S -s 44100 -f s16l -

audio-filter is implemented as a filter, it reads signed 16 bit mono input at 44100 khz from stdin, and outputs signed 16 bit stereo, 44100 khz output to stdout. You can replace mpg123 with any sound source generating signed 16 bit 44100 khz mono signal. "aplay" is a sound player utility which comes with ALSA linux sound driver. You can use "play" from the sox package, or "ampctl", or any other sound player that would read 44100 khz, signed 16 bit stereo raw data from stdin. For "sox" play script, you would replace "aplay" command line with "play -c 2 -f s -r 44100 -s w -t raw -"

If everything is good, a 640x480 window will come up, with some cryptic writing on the top, a filled circle with an arrow pointing right, and a empty circle slightly to the right of the circle with arrow.

NOTE, that just like in the original Windows implementation, the axiss are reversed. The arrow on the "head" is pointing "forward". So, in the default startup configuration, the sound is located in front of the listener. Moving the sound source "up" moves it to the left of the listener, and "down", to the right. You can visualize this well if you turn your monitor 90 degrees counter
clock wise.

The filled circle with an arrow is your "head"
The empty circle is the "sound source"

You can move the "sound source" around by clicking the mouse at any position in the window, or by clicking on the "sound source" circle, and dragging it to the desired position. Soundfield will be dynamically updated as you do this.

You can move the "head" by moving the mouse to desired position, and right-clicking. The "head" icon will move to the new position and soundfield will be updated.

Crystal Vista XT Paolo Icon Mod is NOT my theme, I modified Vista Inspirate, Crystal Clear, Nuove XT and other Icons like Debian Icons, Firefox Alternative and much more.

I take my favourite icons from these Icons-theme and I create my Mod, Crystal Vista XT Paolo Mod.

Gnome Crystal project is a light model visualizer for crystal structures.

Gnome-1 version uses Gtk+, Gnome, libglade, gettext, OpenGL(or Mesa) and GtkGLArea.

Gnome-2 version uses standard Gnome-2 libraries and the Gnome Chemistry Utils and its dependencies.

Ice Sound Manager was designed to ease the management of sound events, sound themes, and the IceSound server in the IceWM environment under Linux/Unix. It is also intended to be an improvement upon the noble, but primitive icesndcfg.
The main improvements over icesndcfg include a support for sound event "themes", more comprehensive help, easy management and configuration of the IceSound server, a cleaner GUI interface, automatic starting of the IceSound server, and a more conservative approach to disk space usage. In addition, Ice Sound Manager includes a built-in "Setup" program which runs the first time you run Ice Sound Manager.
The application is written in Python (making it more easily ported across various platforms and architectures) and uses GTK through the PyGTK libraries. This application is available in both .tar.bz2, RPM, and static binary (for people without Python/PyGtk).
Please note that the tar.gz file does NOT need to be compiled (this is python, remember). System requirements are as follows: Python 2.2, PyGTK-2 1.9.9/2.0.0, IceWM (or IceWM-Gnome) 1.2.0 or better - with the IceSound Server executable (generally called, icesound or icesound-gnome). IceWM version 1.2.6 or better is highly recommended.
NONE of the following is required: Gnome, Gnome libs, or PyGnome (python-gnome). This application has NOT been tested with earlier versions of Python, IceWM, PyGTK, and IceSound Server. I cant say that it wont work with earlier versions, but I certainly cant say that it will. This application has NO dependencies on Gnome. 8-)

This software is distributed AS-IS, with no warranty whatsoever. Copyright (c) 2002-2004 Erica Andrews (PhrozenSmoke[at]yahoo.com). All rights reserved.
Ice Sound Manager has been designed and tested in the following environment(s): Mandrake 8.1, SuSe 8.1, Kernel 2.4.8 / 2.4.19, Glibc 2.2.4 / 2.2.5, XFree86 4.0.1 - 4.3.0, Python 2.2 - 2.2.1, PyGtk 0.6.9/PyGtk-2 2.0.0, Gtk version 1.2.8-4-1.2.10, Gtk+2 version 2.0.6, IceWM 1.0.9 - 1.2.15, IceWM-Gnome 1.0.9 / 1.2.2, with both icesound and icesound-gnome sound server executables. The test computers (3) were all Pentium 1, ranging in memory from 64MB to 256MB - nothing spectacular. It should run well on very old computers.
Requierments:
- Access to a Bash shell (very important), Python (2.2 or better), PyGtk-2 (1.9.9/2.0.0 or better), and Gtk+ 2.0.6 or better - neither Gnome nor PyGnome is required. (IceWMCP versions 2.5 and earlier require Gtk+1 and PyGtk-1 0.6.9) Repeat: IceWM requires NOTHING gnome-related.
- Also, your version of PyGtk should have the Gdk-Pixbuf modules on your system. Please run ALL IceWMCP programs from a BASH shell: Using other shells such as ksh, pdksh, csh, tcsh, etc. is likely to cause problems. If your IceWMCP programs have trouble launching other applications, it is most likely because you are using something other than a Bash (/bin/bash) shell. Run the programs from Bash...period! If you attempt to run the application and get ANY kind of error that says something like "Import Error", it means YOU do not have all the necessary Python libraries installed or do not have them installed correctly: This is NOT a bug, so do not file a bug report when you dont have the necessary software properly installed. Getting Python and PyGtk and getting them setup right is YOUR business. DO NOT ask for help installing Python, PyGtk, or GdkPixbuf. I recommend you get them from: http://speakeasy.rpmfind.net. If you are using a Python version lower than 2.2 and are too lazy to upgrade, use the "binary" distribution of IceWM Control Panel, or dont bother at all. NOTE: These requirements apply only to the standard pure-python version of IceWM Control Panel. Compiled, binary copies of IceWM Control Panel are stand-alone executables that do NOT require Python or PyGtk.
- Disk space requirements: The standard, pure-Python version of IceWM Control Panel uses approximately 1.75-2.2 MB of disk space - very small! The compiled, binary version of IceWM Control Panel uses about 3.7 MB of disk space. Yes, the binary version is large, so people too lazy or impatient to install Python and PyGtk properly and choose to use the stand-alone binary version will pay with disk space. At last check, the Hardware (or System) plug-in uses about 1.9 MB of disk space (most of it being the hardware ID data file).
