LMarbles is an Atomix clone with a slight change in concept. Instead of assembling molecules you create figures out of marbles. Nevertheless, the basic game play is the same: If a marble starts to move it will not stop until it hits a wall or another marble.

To make it more interesting there are obstacles like one-way streets, crumbling walls and portals.

As Marbles is meant as a puzzle game you play against a move limit and not a time limit. This way you have as much time as you need to think.

Mandriva Linux is the operating system of choice for users keen on all things advanced.
Linux power users will welcome the advanced Web experience, enhanced hardware compatibility and expanded development options brought by Limited Edition 2005, along with significant performance gains. Firefox 1.0.2 offers the most advanced Web browsing experience, with multi-tabbed navigation, pop-up blocking, increased speed, and unmatched security.
Limited Edition also offers the RSS reader Akregator. RSS is a format used to simplify the aggregation and syndication of Web content. RSS feeds contain news and updates from websites and blogs, providing personalized access to information.
Limited Edition 2005 is built to optimize and increase performance. It has been developed with x86-64 technology in mind, which allows for the use of more powerful applications. Support for dual-core technology adds to potential performance, allowing the use of advanced new processors.
Developers and power users running demanding multimedia configurations will appreciate the additional power those features provide. Some special optimizations enhance the overall speed delivered by the system. For instance, KDE 3.3 is 10% faster, thanks to special tuning by Mandriva.
Addressing both the x86 and x86-64 architectures, Limited Edition 2005 is the only Linux system to allow the seamless installation and running of 32-bit applications on 64-bit platforms. This will allow users to benefit from all the power and performance of 64-bit technology while continuing to use vital 32-bit applications.
Developers will welcome the ability to develop 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the same application on the same machine, without the need to use chroot. Finally, Limited Edition allows you to copy the contents of the DVD to the hard disk during installation, removing the need to use the DVD for subsequent software installation, and so saving even more time.
Limited Edition 2005 provides better support for removable devices such as digital cameras, CD-ROM drives and USB keys through immediate detection of devices as they are plugged in, and by allowing you to boot the installation from a USB key.
Also available is DKMS which allows kernel modules to be dynamically built for each kernel on your system in a simplified and organized fashion.
A special feature that will certainly appeal to gamers and enthusiasts is that the new release from Mandriva has support for the Xbox console, empowering users to bridge the divide between gaming and other computer activities.

mod_auth_useragent2 is an Apache module that can be used to limit access to documents by means of the User-Agent.

As an authentication method, this is really unsafe because it is easy to change the User-Agent in most browsers, but it could be used to prevent stupid bots and spiders from accessing your Web sites.

libshape is library for limiting the download rate of programs.

libshape library works entirely in user space with existing programs through LD_PRELOAD.

Are tested with threaded programs. This limiting is done entirely in user space. You only need to start Your program with

$ LIBSHAPE_CFG=/home/user/.libshape/program1
LD_PRELOAD=libshape.so
./program1

to limit download rate to 14Kbps You need to convert this rate to Bps:

$ echo $[14 * 1024 / 8] > /home/user/.libshape/program1

You cant dissable limiter, but you can set it to very high limit.

You can change download rate on the fly. Changes will occur in 1-5 seconds, becous there are some buffers in kernel space.

CCux Linux is a GNU/Linux Distribution especially optimized for i686 and higher Processor Architectures.
For Package Management it uses the old fashioned rpm Format in connection with the also well known apt Tools.
Using that, it features automatic Dependency resolving when installing new Software and so making the Installation of new Software much more easier.
But the main Feature is still the Optimization for modern CPU Architectures. Many other Distros still use old fashioned Standards for that and therefor limit the Possibility to gain a high performance System.
