Free hot software for linux

Hotstuff is a set of Perl scripts to automatically handle repositories for the "Get Hot New Stuff" creative data sharing functionality present in KDE and several applications.
It handles both the traditional format and the new GHNS format as developed by the corresponding freedesktop.org project, and requires an SQL database to work.
Hotstuff project also includes a (simple) Web frontend for database maintenance.
Installation:
1) Prepare the database
2) Setup scripts and configuration
3) Optional steps
Step 1: Prepare the database
- only PostgreSQL is supported right now
- create a user and a database
- use hoststuff.sql and hotstuffadmin.sql to initialise tables
Step 2: Setup scripts and configuration
- copy hotstuff-conf.dist to /etc/hotstuff.conf
- enter database access data and other values
- copy the script hotstuff-scan.pl to some bindir
- add crontab entry for hotstuff-scan.pl
Step 3: Optional steps
- auto-generated providers.xml/stuff.xml files (documentation?)
- web interface (documentation?)
- admin web interface (documentation?)
- webservice gate - SOAP uploads/downloads (documentation?)
- protocol gate - HTTP/FTP uploads/downloads (documentation?)
Enhancements:
- This release adds support for SVN-maintained GHNS repositories.
- Checkouts are scanned for data files and added to the database automatically.
- Support for digital signatures has been added and is now present in both the scanners and the feed producers.
- Robustness has been increased by enforcing Unicode, using standard Perl modules to parse dates for version comparisons, and by counting downloads in real-time instead of relying on Web server logs.

Laptop-Hotswap kernel module enables hot-swapping for disk drives with full DMA support under Linux. It requires kernel 2.6.15+ and ACPI.
I think it ought to work on just about any laptop, although Im not as familiar with ACPI as Id like to be. It works fine on my T22. There could be issues with laptops with two expansion bays -- I shut down the entire ide1 interface and fire it back up, and I do all my watching on the ACPI device for the IDE1/Master. So if you had a slave device, and you ejected the master, your slave will go bye-bye. Thinking about ways around that, but they dont export too much of the ide driver. I think itd be easy to handle, you just have to make sure youre not using either master or slave whenever you eject one of them.
At least on my laptop, dont go pulling things while your laptop is sleeping. Do it when its awake.
The floppy support should work, but my floppy drive isnt with me right now.
Theres one parameter -- auto_eject. If you set it to 1, the driver will automatically shut down and unregister the IDE interface upon getting a request for ejection (On my T22, I pull a little switch and a lever pops out -- the drive is still connected at that point, but it shows as a request for ejection). If your laptop doesnt have a mechanism for that:
echo -n "MSTR eject" > /proc/acpi/lths
Will shut down and software-eject the drive, and you can safely pull it and insert another.
See the scripts in config/ -- theyre made to work with acpid to handle the ejection and umounting and insertion. The mount/umount stuff only matters for a drive caddy, I suppose.
It shouldnt matter what you have in your laptop at boot. This module also fixes that annoying thing on my T22 where if I dont have a ultrabay battery in at boot, I cant ever see its status.
Enhancements:
- Support for the Fujitsu S7020 (and possibly other laptops using a PATA bay with an SATA main disk).

Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::ItemHotSpot is a Perl module to manage a "hot spot" on a view item.

SYNOPSIS

use Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::ItemHotSpot;

Four Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::ItemHotSpots are created for each Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::Item. The hotspots are areas on the mind map, that when clicked, cause an action to be performed on an item. These hotspots allow the user to expand/collapse the items in the mind map, or to resize an item.

INTERFACE

Properties

item (Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::Item)

The item that this hotspot belongs to.

enabled

If true, the toggle is receiving events and may act on them. Otherwise it is not receiving events.

fill_color_gdk (Gtk2::Gdk::Color)

The color with which to fill the toggle.

outline_color_gdk (Gtk2::Gdk::Color)

The color with which to fill in the hotspot outline. Toggles normally have a visible outline, while grips usually have the outline set to the same color as the item fill color.

hotspot_color_gdk (Gtk2::Gdk::Color)

The color of the hotspot once it is engaged. A hotspot becomes engaged when the mouse is placed close to it.

Methods

new (item=>$item)

Instantiates a hotspot. The following properties may be passed: item, enabled, fill_color_gdk, outline_color_gdk, hotspot_color_gdk.

hotspot_adjust_event_handler

Overrides method defined in Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::HotSpot. This method sets the proper state of the toggle when a "hotspot_adjust" event occurs.

hotspot_get_image

Overrides method defined in Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::HotSpot. Returns a circle (Gnome2::Canvas::Ellipse) image.

Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::HotSpot::Grip::Round is a Perl module to manage a round grip type "hot spot" on a view item.

SYNOPSIS

use Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::HotSpot::Grip::Round;

The Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::HotSpot::Grip::Round is a round grip that may be used to resize a Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::Item.

INTERFACE

Properties

item (Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::Item)

The item this grip is attached to.

enabled (boolean)

If enabled, this grip is ready for action.

side (string)

The side on which to attach the grip. May be left or right.

fill_color_gdk (Gtk2::Gdk::Color)

The color with which to fill in the hotspot.

outline_color_gdk (Gtk2::Gdk::Color)

The color with which to fill in the hotspot outline. Grips usually have the outline set to the same color as the item fill color.

The color of the hotspot once it is engaged. A hotspot becomes engaged when the mouse is placed close to it.

Methods

new (item=>$item)

Instantiates a Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::HotSpot::Grip::Round hotspot.

hotspot_adjust_event_handler

Positions the grip at the lower left or right corner of the rectangle defined by the insets. This will change for the next release.

hotspot_get_image

Returns a circle (Gnome2::Canvas::Ellipse) as grip image.

Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::HotSpot::Grip::EllipseRound is a Perl module to manage a round grip type "hot spot" on a ellipse item. This grip differs from the standard grip with respect to where it is placed on the Gtk2::Ex::MindMapView::Item.

Habotat is a small, lightweight application server for hosting IM Services (more commonly referred to as Bots).
Bots are small, specialized programs that you can communicate with using an Instant Messenger (IM) client; they show up in your Buddy List and are always there to do your bidding.
Habotat is written entirely in Java and is known to run on Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, and Windows. A simple API is provided to allow for the creation of new Bots.
The Habotat server supports dynamic hot-deployment, so Bots can be loaded into the server and activated on-the-fly and even rebuilt and reloaded without requiring a server restart.
Enhancements:
- Minor bugfixes were made in the AOL IM adapter, the eBay sniping bot, and the HTTP cookie management routines in the API.

Sportal is a program made for the people that needs to know what is going on, in their systems, what it does is keep an eye on the files that you select , for "hot Words" that u also select, all this is made trough a graphical interface, u never have to touch a config file, but if u want u can.
When a "hot Word" is found on the file being watched, the Main Window goes to the front of your desktop, leaving all the other windows on the back, so u dont have to keep looking at it, it will let u know when a word is found. There is no restriction on the numbers of files or hot words, u can have as many as u want.It only needs "read access" to the files. It is not recomended runing th as root, only because it doesnt need it.
Main features:
- Infinite numbers of files
- Infinite numbers of words
- Execute a command when word is found, %l to include the line
- Transparent Window and tint
- Show all lines option.
- Search through Regular Expresions
- Whenever i get enough mails asking for regular expresions I will implement them.
- Configuration done trough Graphical Interface
- Inteligent behavior (save location and size of all windows)
- You can save the content of the main window
Enhancements:
- Added option to Show All the lines that get added to the file
- Fixed some bugs
