Software Render Library is an Open Source software implementation of a polygon-based renderer (like your graphics card).
Main features:
- Transform vertices (from world to screen coordinates)
- Lighting
- Apply fog
- Rasterization of points, lines and triangles
- Texturation
- Z-Buffers
- Alpha blending
- Output to several pixel formats
Installation:
1. `cd to the directory containing the packages source code and type `./configure to configure the package for your system. If youre using `csh on an old version of System V, you might need to type `sh ./configure instead to prevent `csh from trying to execute
`configure itself.
If youre using GNU `make or any other `make program that supports the `VPATH variable, you should instead create a new directory, `cd to it and type `../srlib-src/configure.
This way you can keep the source directory clean and have your sources in a directory which is not modifyable by normal users.
Running `configure takes awhile. While running, it prints some messages telling which features it is checking for.
2. Type `make to compile the package.
3. Type `make install to install the libraries, headers and documentation. At the moment, only static libraries are built; support for shared libraries will be provided soon.
4. You can remove the library binaries and object files from the build directory by typing `make clean. To also remove the files that `configure created (so you can compile the package for a different kind of computer), type `make distclean.
There is also a `make maintainer-clean target, but that is intended mainly for the packages developers. If you use it, you may have to get all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came with the distribution.
Version restrictions:
- Read or write files and file formats, like png or jpeg. Software Render Library expects pixel data in a suitable format in a memory buffer.
- Read and process file formats describing a scene. Software Render Library only takes simple commands like "render this list of triangles" or "apply this certain light".
- Tesselation, i.e. dividing more abstract elements like cubes or spheres into lines and triangles.

Userexitd for TSM is a configurable handler for Tivoli Storage Manager events.
Userexitd for TSM allows an administrator to filter events using regular expressions and run various actions for TSM events, such as sending mail and SNMP traps, writing messages into syslog, and running scripts and programs.
This software consists of two parts: a simple shared library (userexit.so), which is dynamically linked to the TSM Server as a user exit and communicates using a socket with the userexitd daemon, which runs as a separate service. The daemon is configured with an XML configuration file.
Enhancements:
- This release features some code cleanup, a working AIX port, support for reloading configuration on SIGHUP

Frankie Linux is a bootable CD containing the Linux desktop operating system for PC. Frankie Linux runs Linux directly from the CD without installing.

All your available partitions and data storage devices (CD-ROM, USB storage devices, etc.) should be recognized at boot and should be mounted to /mnt/**.

Lots of useful applications are included.And you can also copy the CD to a FAT32 partition, and run it on your hard disk by launching a ms-dos program called loadlin.

A Live-CD is a completely operational Linux system contained on one bootable CD that can de run from any CD-ROM drive, without requering the installation of anything on your hard drive. When you want to return to your previous operating system, reboot and simply remove the CD from your drive. If you want to run Frankie Linux on your harddisk, just copy to a FAT32 Partition.

Frankie Linux is a distro base on Slackware , and it contains almost all usefull software for running full-fledged desktop, including Xwindow graphics user interface and lots of useful applications.

Frankie Linux can also be installed (manually) to a ext2/ext3/Reiserfs partition like other distributions, but you have to configure boot loader manually.

Game Server Startup Script project is a startup script to manage dedicated game servers like Quake3.
Game Server Startup Scripts is a startup script to manage a wide variety of Linux dedicated game servers. It can start/stop/restart/fix dedicated game servers like Quake3, Half Life, Tribes 2, UT2K4, BF1942 and others.
It uses qstat through cron to validate that a game is running as expected. If a game is not running as expected, the game is automatically restarted from the script through cron.
GSSS was written becuase I wanted a way to start up a variety of games in a standard way. Then I also wanted to make sure the games stayed running even after a crash.
So I wrote this perl script. It will start games and through a cron job make sure they stay running. If you have qstat installed it can also verify the game is running like it is suppose to be and not in some strange state where no one can play.
If the game is running but unresponsive, it kills it and starts it again. You can also stop running games cleanly as well.
Games supported by "Game Server Startup Script":
- Quake2
- Quake3
- RTCW
- Half Life
- Unreal
- UT2K3
- UT2K4
- Tribes 2
- NWN
- BF1942
- ET
Enhancements:
- Very minor changes, minor readme changes, clean up
