Free desktop tower defense software for linux

The Sun Java Desktop System is a secure, comprehensive, and affordable enterprise desktop software solution that combines the best of open source innovation with significant contributions from Sun.
Initially provided with a Linux OS, Java Desktop System is now also integrated with the Solaris 10 Operating System.

xdesktopwaves is a cellular automata which sets the background of an X11 desktop as if it were under water.

Window and mouse movements cause ripples on the desktop like ships on the sea. You can also simulate rain or a storm stirring up the water.

Remake of the old Atari game. You`re controlling defence sattelite on orbin of the Moon. Your goal is to destroy enemy missiles.

In the year 2045 USA built their first base on the Moon. Unfortunatelly, the Moon seems to be a cemetary of the Old Alien Race. The Old Alien Race is really pissed...

Defend your base, soldier!

This project comprises a library for developing thin client application frontends using a browser. It helps developers creating (neat) application interfaces (GUI) for inter/intra- and extranet applications.
Main features:
- 100% Browser based & no plugins required
- Supports all Operating Systems providing a DOM2 / Javascript Support Browser
- Simple, well documented Object Interface
- Customizable desktop & window skins
Following Browsers are currently supported:
- Mozilla 1.2+
- Firefox
- K-Meleon 0.7+
- Netscape 7.0+
- Avant 7.0+
- Microsoft IE6.0+
- Galeon 1.2+
- OSX: Camino 0.7+
A note to Konqueror / Safari users: We do respect the work of the Open Source community, especially the K-Teams. However we did not have the time to dig too much into why Konqueror does not work as the others. But because Mozilla 1.x does work and comes with most Linux boxes, we focused on development of the supported browsers, rather than finding the key issues of this problem.
A note to Opera fans: Unfortunately the css and javascript support of all current versions does not allow many operations we do need (like dynamic clipping etc.) We did hope that the upcoming Opera 7.x version can be included as well. But so it is not the case.
Despite the success of NS 4.x it is clearly in excess of age. Therefore we are sorry to inform that NS 4.x or any prior versions of above mentioned browser cannot be used. In addition, the javascript engine of NS7.x seems to be very slow when moving or resizing desktop windows.

SaxenOS Desktop Server is as it seems the first working Live CD with a running LTSP Linux Terminal Server. This means you can serve thin client PCs from a live CD.
Usernames and Passwords:
After booting from the live CD you get the login Screen. On the desktop its XDM, on the Desktop Server its GDM. Use the following username/password combinations to login.
Desktop Server:
User: root, Password: root
User: demo, Password: demo
User: demo1, Password: demo1
User: demo2, Password: demo2
After installation please change these passwords!!!
Enhancements:
- The SaxenOS 2 ISO image is now down to a 534 MB and needs about 1.7 GB space on the target partition plus the space for home directories and temporary and log files - so a 2 GB partition is still the minimum. Changes: fixed German installer translations; changed formatting of target partition to ext3; removed win32 Codecs - theyre now a separate installer download (for legal reasons); removed REALbasic - check the installer downloads next week; new SaxenOS System Panel, written in REALbasic.

desktop-data-manager includes a clipboard history for many different types of content (text, images, ...) and an application to take screenshots from a single window/subwindow, rectangle of the screen or the whole desktop.

The two applications are designed to work well together. For more details please visit my homepage.

Notes: If you find some bugs/problems with the application please contact me at einki(at)users.sourceforge.net. The Program is programmed to work in a GTK/GNOME environment but at least the basic functionalities will work in KDE too.

The QDS library allows Qt applications to access features provided in common desktop APIs in a portable way, without requiring dependencies on any desktop platform library.
This is especially useful for applications targeting the Unix desktops, because Qt/X11 is very generic and only provides features it can implement on all sub platforms. All library code is licenced under 2-clause BSD licence.
Service implementations are loaded from plugins which link to the respective desktop libraries. The plugin to use can be specified on the applications commandline, in the QDS configuration file or QDS can try to autodetect the currently running platform.
Enhancements:
- Autodetection to use GNOME plugin in case GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID is set
- Replaced the primitive example application with a simple but network aware text editor application
- Support for wildcards in mailcap entries
