This project is to produce drivers for the Logitech Quickam Express that will run popular linux software, such as video for linux.

This site hosts the Linux driver for the QuickCam Express and other QuickCam-related and QuickCam-compatible USB web cameras. The original work was done by Georg Acher and was known as qce-ga; Jean-Frederic Clere took that driver and created the first Video4Linux (V4L) driver, enabling popular V4L applications such as Xawtv to display pictures from the webcam. Since then, a group of developers around the world have evolved the driver into its current state, adding support for new cameras and chipsets as they have become available. In the process, the driver became known as qc-usb to reflect the fact that it supports a wide variety of USB-attached QuickCam cameras, not just the QuickCam Express.

The qc-usb driver supports the following webcams:

Dexxa Webcam
Labtec Webcam (old model)
LegoCam
Logitech QuickCam Express (old model)
Logitech QuickCam Notebook (some models)
Logitech QuickCam Web

Generally, any USB camera with a USB vendor ID of 0x46d and a USB product ID of 0x840, 0x850, or 0x870 (so, 0x46d:0x840, for example), should work. You can see the USB ID using operating system utilities such as lsusb in Linux.

Linux is the ideal choice for security systems; it is well proven, secure, highly configurable and freely available as open source code. SmoothWall includes a hardened subset of the GNU/Linux operating system, so there is no separate OS to install.

Designed for ease of use, SmoothWall is configured via a web-based GUI, and requires absolutely no knowledge of Linux to install or use.

The SmoothWall project was founded by Lawrence Manning, Richard Morrell, Jon Fautley and Tom Ellis in Summer 2000, with the first version version 0.9 released via the SourceForge open source collaboration site in August of that year. The intention was to create a firewall operating system distribution based on Linux, enabling a low-end, possibly otherwise redundant, Intel and compatible PC to become a hardened Internet firewall. The SmoothWall team created a real alternative to hardware routers with costs beyond the financial reach of most individuals.

From these small beginnings, the project grew rapidly. Soon hundreds of copies were being downloaded every month, and then thousands, with people using it all over the world. Even the project founders were amazed at just how quickly SmoothWall became so popular. The team grew; new features such as ISDN and ADSL support, Squid web proxying, and additional languages were added, and SmoothWall became and is still one of the most popular open source software projects.

The initial design goals are still the foundation of SmoothWall today, namely:

* Protect the local network from outside attack, whilst interfering as little as possible with user activities
* Be simple enough to be installed by home users with no previous knowledge of Linux required
* Support a wide variety of network cards, modems and other hardware
* Work with many different connection methods and ISPs across the world
* Increase ease of use, management and configuration by use of tools such as web access interface

SmoothWall is intended for use by anyone from home users to systems administrators. It can run on virtually any 32-bit Intel or i386-compatible PC from a 486 to an Athlon or Pentium 4, and it enables that PC to become a dedicated firewall appliance, aka a SmoothWall box. Apart from the PC to run SmoothWall on, all that is required is an Internet connection, some simple networking equipment to connect the SmoothWall box to the rest of your private LAN, and the SmoothWall CD image file.

Whats New in This Release:

· Express 3.0 is our latest version of the long running and successful SmoothWall Express firewall. Headline new features relative to 2.0: supports a 4th network card for Wireless Access Points; 64-bit support; based upon Linux 2.6 kernel; new realtime traffic graph shows traffic bandwidth usage over time (AJAX); per-IP address traffic statistics collection in all traffic stats pages; Instant Messenger proxy with logging and filtering abilities; SATA and SCSI support; streamlined installer and setup; outbound filtering; new update mechanism which can download and install all pending updates with a single click....

DVD BacKup Express is a small Kommander Script to create a GUI for dvdbackup.

I made it because it can be run on any platform with kommander installed and dvdbackup available (which may be more platforms than kdvdbackup or other binary frontends are available for)

There is a lot of room for improvement here. Feel free to spruce it up a bit and send me the new .kmdr file and i will update this.

American Express Expense Report to QIF Converter project is a utility that converts American Express expense reports into QIF.

There are three main reasons:

1. American Express only offers QIF files for the last 6 months of activity whereas the expense reports go back 2 years. You can also run a report with a custom 1- to 12-month time period within 24 months of the current calendar month.
2. American Express QIF files have limited to no "categorization" whereas the expense report categorizes each transaction with a "Merchant Category" and "Subcategory".
3. American Express QIF files do not indicate which credit card in a multi-card account performed the transaction.

Here are some key features of "American Express Expense Report to QIF Converter":

· Inserts card owner and last 5 digits of the credit card in the memo field
· Reads config file for user defined rules so transactions can be automatically mapped to different accounts in your accounting software. Mapping can be based on:
· Credit card owner
· Vendor name
· AMEX "Merchant Category" and "Subcategory"
· Any combination of the above
· Sanitizes and cleans up vendor names
· Has the ability to add a prefix to all vendor names

Class::Meta::Express is a Perl module for concise, expressive creation of Class::Meta classes.

Synopsis

package My::Contact;
use Class::Meta::Express;

class {
meta contact => ( default_type => string );
has name;
has contact => ( required => 1 );
}

This module provides an interface to concisely yet expressively create classes with Class::Meta. Although I am of course fond of Class::Meta, Ive never been overly thrilled with its interface for creating classes:

package My::Thingy;
use Class::Meta;

BEGIN {
# Create a Class::Meta object for this class.
my $cm = Class::Meta->new( key => thingy );

# Add a constructor.
$cm->add_constructor( name => new );

# Add a couple of attributes with generated accessors.
$cm->add_attribute(
name => id,
is => integer,
required => 1,
);

$cm->add_attribute(
name => name,
is => string,
required => 1,
);

$cm->add_attribute(
name => age,
is => integer,
);

# Add a custom method.
$cm->add_method(
name => chk_pass,
code => sub { return code },
);
$cm->build;
}

This example is relatively simple; it can get a lot more verbose. But even still, all of the method calls were annoying. I mean, whoever thought of using an object oriented interface for declaring a class? (Oh yeah: I did.) I wasnt alone in wanting a more declarative interface; Curtis Poe, with my blessing, created Class::Meta::Declare, which would use this syntax to create the same class:

package My::Thingy;
use Class::Meta::Declare :all;

Class::Meta::Declare->new(
# Create a Class::Meta object for this class.
meta => [
key => thingy,
],
# Add a constructor.
constructors => [
new => { }
],
# Add a couple of attributes with generated accessors.
attributes => [
id => {
type => $TYPE_INTEGER,
required => 1,
},
name => {
required => 1,
type => $TYPE_STRING,
},
age => { type => $TYPE_INTEGER, },
],
# Add a custom method.
methods => [
chk_pass => {
code => sub { return code },
}
]
);

This approach has the advantage of being a bit more concise, and it is declarative, but I find all of the indentation levels annoying; its hard for me to figure out where I am, especially if I have to define a lot of attributes. And finally, everything is a string with this syntax, except for those ugly read-only scalars such as $TYPE_INTEGER. So I cant easily tell where one attribute ends and the next one starts. Bleh.

PhotoRec is a small tool to recover pictures from digital camera memory. Photorec software searches for MOV and JPEG headers, and because there is (usually) no data fragmentation, it can recover the whole file.

It can recover data from CompactFlash, Memory Stick, SecureDigital, SmartMedia, Microdrive, MMC, USB Memory Drives...

PhotoRec is safe to use, it will never attempt to write to the drive or memory support you are about to recover from. Recovered files are instead written in the directory from where you are running the PhotoRec program.

Photorec ignores the filesystem, this way it works even if the filesystem is severely damaged.

It can recover lost files at least from:

· FAT,
· NTFS,
· EXT2/EXT3 filesystem

Digital Camera

PhotoRec has been successfully tested with:

· Canon EOS300D, 10D
· HP PhotoSmart 620, 850, 935
· Nikon CoolPix 775, 5700
· Olympus C350N, C860L, Mju 400 Digital, Stylus 300
· Sony DSC-P9
· Praktica DCZ-3.4
· Casio Exilim EX-Z 750

PhotoRec searchs known file header and because there is no data fragmentation (usually), it can recover the whole file. Photorec recognises numerous file format including:

Mozilla Thunderbird is a full-featured email, RSS and newsgroup client that makes emailing safer, faster and easier than ever before.

It offers some advantages over other mail clients, including junk mail classification. Built from Mozilla code, Mozilla Thunderbird uses Gecko, the most standards-compliant rendering engine in existence.

In addition to the feature set found in Mozilla Mail, Thunderbird has several new features and improvements to make your mail and new experience better.

Here are some key features of "Mozilla Thunderbird":

· Adaptive Junk Mail Controls
· RSS Integration
· Saved Search Folders
- Saved Search Folders display messages based on previously set search criteria. For example, instead of filtering messages into a new folder, you can create a Saved Search Folder that lists all the messages received from a certain person over the past 30 days, even if those messages are stored in different folders and subfolders.
· Global Inbox Support
- POP3 users can now combine all of their POP3 accounts into a single global inbox under local folders.
· Message Grouping
- You can now group messages in a folder by attributes such as date, sender, priority or a custom label. For instance, a folder grouped by date will group messages from today, yesterday, last week, etc. into self-contained groups in the message list pane. (View > Sort By > Grouped By Sort)
· Privacy Protection
- In order to help protect your privacy, Thunderbird now automatically blocks remote image requests in emails from senders you dont know.
· Comprehensive Mail Migration from other Mail Clients
- Switching to Thunderbird has never been easier since Thunderbird can now migrate all of your email data including settings, mail folders and address book data from common mail applications such as the Mozilla 1.x Suite, Outlook Express, Outlook and Eudora.

Whats New in This Release:

· Unescaped URIs passed to external programs
· Privilege escalation through chrome-loaded about:blank windows

Scala is a modern multi-paradigm programming language designed to express common programming patterns in a concise, elegant, and type-safe way.

Scala smoothly integrates features of object-oriented and functional languages including mixins, algebraic datatypes with pattern matching, genericity, and more.

It is well integrated with Java and .NET: the Scala compiler produces standard Java class files or .NET assemblies, and Java/.NET libraries and frameworks can be used without glue code or additional declarations.

Scala is a pure object-oriented language in the sense that every value is an object. Types and behavior of objects are described by classes and traits. Class abstractions are extended by subclassing and a flexible mixin-based composition mechanism as a clean replacement for multiple inheritance.

Whats New in 2.6.0 RC1 Development Release:

· This version introduces some language changes (existential types, lazy values, structural types, etc.) and fixes many bugs.

OpenGroupware.org is a set of applications for contact, appointment, project, and content management. OpenGroupware.org is comparable to Exchange and SharePoint portal servers.

It is accessible using Web interfaces and various native clients, including Outlook. Its servers run on almost any GNU/Linux system, can synchronize with Palm PDAs, and are completely scriptable using XML-RPC.
