Free os x login screen software for linux

OS X Login Screen is a very accurate OS X login Screen Mimic for Kubuntu Linux.

Full Screen is an extension which provides a fulscreen button on the toolbar.

Adds Full Screen toolbar button and context menu command.

After installing use View / Toolbars / Customize... to add the button to the toolbar.

Secure Login provides a login extension similar to Operas Wand login.

It uses the built-in password manager, but deactivates the prefilling of login forms.
Instead, you are now able to login with one click or a keyboard shortcut (ALT+N).
Just add the Secure Login toolbar button to your toolbar, or use the provided statusbar icon.
If you hover over one of the icons, a tooltip is shown, displaying the login url and the number of available logins (users).
For more than one user or login forms on the current page a selection prompt is displayed on login.
You have the option to play sound notifications (*.wav) for found login data on the current page or when logging in.
All the options can be changed using the Secure Login settings menu or the statusbar icon context menu.

Secure Login provides you with a number of Security enhancements and helps protecting you from phishing:

Disabling the prefilling of login forms prevents malicious JavaScript code to automatically steal your login data.
This is due to the fact that no login data is inserted in form fields before the user clicks on the login button or logs in using the keyboard shortcut.
To make sure you login to the right website, the second level domain of the login url is compared to the second level domain of the current page.
If they do not match a dialog prompt is displayed before login.

SecureLogin provides you with an optional setting to protect you from all JavaScript code during login.
This can prevent cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks without having to deactivate JavaScript completely.
If you enable this option, your login data will never be inserted in any form fields nor will the login form be submitted.
Instead your credentials will be sent to the login page using internal Firefox methods.
Not all login forms will work this way, e.g. not those using JavaScript routines.
Therefore, you can add such websites to an exception list.

Show Screen Captures is an extension which enables displaying screen captures of external links on a web page.

Displays screen captures of external links on a web page. Screen shots provided by openthumbshots.org.

A screenshot, screen capture, or screen dump is an image taken by the computer to record the visible items on the monitor or another visual output device. Usually this is a digital image taken by the host operating system or software running on the computer device, but it can also be a capture made by a camera or a device intercepting the video output of the computer.

Screenshots, screen dumps, or screen captures can be used to demonstrate a program, a particular problem a user might be having or generally when computer output needs to be shown to others or archived.

Xtra Screen Hacks is a collection of graphics display modes that are meant to be run with a daemon such as XScreenSaver.

"Daisy" draws spinning flowers, and "Twinkle" draws a twinkling star field.

Compilation of Xtra Screen Hacks depends only on xlib.

Installation:

The configure script is not up and running yet, so the Makefiles and config.h are hacked versions of the ones xscreensavers configure script generated on the authors machine. If your system differs from the authors (i686 Debian GNU/Linux) then the build will probably not work for you, unless you hack the Makefiles and possibly config.h to modify the variables and defines.

If the Makefiles and config.h are ok, then simply run

$ make

to generate the binaries. They will be in the hacks directory.
If you have a copy of XScreensaver installed from the tarball, run

$ make install

If not, you will need to copy the files to their target directories by hand. Search for deluxe, deluxe.xml, and deluxe.1 (or deluxe.man, deluxe.6x.gz, etc) using locate, find, or whereis to figure out where they should go. The binaries and xml files must be in the correct directories
to work properly with xscreensaver-demo.

You will need to add entries to your .xscreensaver file by hand. Open $HOME/.xscreensaver in your favorite text editor and paste the following two lines into the "programs" section:

--snip----------------
- daisy -root n
- twinkle -root n
--snip----------------

Then run xscreensaver-demo to activate and configure the hacks.

If you dont have XScreensaver at all, just enjoy the hacks in an X window.

If make install worked for you, type

$ make uninstall

when you no longer want the new screen hacks.

PXES project is a micro Linux thin client distribution. PXES will boot a real thin client or will help to convert in minutes any compliant hardware (see list bellow) into a versatile thin client.
They will be capable of accessing any XDM server presenting the graphical login screen or any Microsoft Terminal Server through RDP protocol. The actual configuration of clients is made with an easy to use graphical configuration tool, allowing the specification of clients parameters or the server to access to.
You can recover hardware that is useless running current desktop OS or office package and give it a second chance. This thin client boots from the network with PXE (Intel Pre-Execution Environment specifications) so neither boot diskette nor boot eprom is needed.
The linux kernel and an initial root filesystem is transmitted over the network (the compressed size as of version 0.4 is about 4M).
Main features:
Supported servers and protocols
- Unix/Linux supporting XDM
- Microsoft Terminal Server using RDP
- Citrix using ICA
- VNC using TightVNC
- LOCAL local graphical session with simple desktop
- LTSP or K12LTSP
- IBM Host using 3270 or 5250 emulation (soon)
- Telnet emulating ANSI terminal
- SSH
- Tarantella using proprietary protocol
- NoMachine using NX
- Thinlinc
Boot methods
- PXE network card included in most modern PC hardware
- Etherboot to boot from diskette or EPROM
- CD-ROM
- Hard disk
- DOC DiskOnChip and DOM DiskOnModule
- USB Storage
- For Hard Disk, DOC, DOM or other flash memory installation you may also use PXES HD/DOM Installer (http://pxes.sourceforge.net/enterprise/install-dom.shtml) which is part of Enterprise Edition (http://pxes.sourceforge.net/enterprise/index.php).
- You can also see the detailed information about Boot Methods.
Hardware requirements
- Processor: x86 architecture (i486, i586, i686, VIA C3, Geode, Vortex86, Transmeta Crusoe, etc.)
- BUS: PCI recommended (although ISA works)
- RAM: 32 Mb recommended (16 Mb minimum)
- NIC: see supported network card list
- Video: see supported video card list
Local devices
- Diskette
- Hard disk
- CD-ROM
- Printers parallel, serial and USB
- Serial devices (bar code reader, etc.)
- Audio
- Flash memory / USB storage
Supported operating system
- Linux
- Solaris
- AIX
- SCO
- BSD
- HP-UX
- Microsoft Windows NT4
- Microsoft Windows 2000

Enhancements:
- Support for different boot loaders was added.
- Support for GRUB on ISO images was added.
- A correction was made in the kernel and image path in isolinux.
- A message telling the user to run "pxesconfig --updatefstab" was added.
- updatefstab was added in post.
- Support for 2.4.32 and 2.6.15 kernels was added.
- Automated owner and permission changing on specific files was added, so now the whole pxes-base tree can be checked out as a normal user.
