Free suse software for linux

Kickoff for Suse 10.1 contains some packages needed to run kickoff in Suse 10.1. I modified the spec file from package kdebase3 included in openSUSE 10.2 to force the compilation of Kickoff in Suse 10.1.

You must have installed KDE 3.5.5 and beagle in order to install and run it.

Use it at your own risk, I am not responsible of any damage that could cause if you install them.

The packages provided are: kdebase3, kdebase3-beagle and liblazy.

Suse Kickoff for Kubuntu is a version of the new Kickoff KDE menu for Suse, made to work on a Kubuntu workstation.

Tweak it some more by installing beagle and kerry. Thanks to jvc jvcharles you can download the 2.2 mb file right here and you can change the launch button by renaming the .png and mng image files in the /kicker/pics folder.

The openSUSE project is a worldwide community program sponsored by Novell (http://www.novell.com) that promotes the use of Linux everywhere. openSUSE Linux provides anyone with free and easy access to the worlds most usable Linux distribution, SUSE Linux.
The goals of the openSUSE project are:
Make SUSE Linux the easiest Linux distribution for anyone to obtain, and the most widely used open source platform.
Provide an environment for open source collaboration tha makes SUSE Linux the worlds best Linux distribution for new and experienced Linux users.
Dramatically simplify and open the development and packaging processes to make SUSE Linux the platform of choice for Linux hackers and application developers.
Currently, SUSE Linux is an unsupported, open source only, preliminary edition of SUSE Linux that contains bleeding-edge packages and represents the latest development snapshot. If you intend to test for bugs or contribute patches, this version is for you...
Whats New in 10.2 Stable Release:
- After a lot of work, we proudly announce the availability of openSUSE 10.2, formerly known as SUSE Linux 10.x As usual, we ship all the latest open source packages available at the time. But we want to give a special mention to the redesigned GNOME and KDE desktop, Firefox 2.0, ext3 as the new default file system, support for internal SD card readers, new power management and, last but not least, our improved package management. Wed like to thank you all for testing heavily, reporting bugs, giving feedback on mailing lists. Have a lot of fun!
Whats New in 10.3 Beta 2 Development Release:
- Its my pleasure to announce the availability of openSUSE 10.3 Beta2. Many thanks to everyone who has contributed to this release of openSUSE! Important Changes Since Beta2: kernel 2.6.22.3; glibc 2.6.1; the YaST infrastructure was improved to allow writing complete YaST modules; bootloader improvements - openSUSE 10.3 will use chainloader if it detects additional installations in other partitions, otherwise configfile sections will be used; improved package lists of 1-CD GNOME and KDE; countless bug fixes in every component.

SystemXInfo is a Karamba theme, and requires superkaramba 0.37+. SystemXInfo displays:

- Kernel and KDE versions
- CPU Model + Clock (Mhz)
- CPU Performance Graph
- CPU & Case Temperature
- Ethernet Connection Statistcs
- WiFi Connection Statistics
- RAM & Swap Usage
- 3 Partitions Usage
- Uptime and Date

This is made for systems that have 1 Ethernet and 1 WiFi Connections enabled and running.

My Linux box is running SuSE 10.0 + KDE 3.5.1

For WiFi, replace "ra0" with your module name (ex. wlan0)

Under CPU INFO:

I got text "O/C @2700Mhz", as mine is. You can change the text to your o/c specs, or delete it ... as you wish.

To show CPU and Case temperatures use the correct config line to sensors result.

Also you can modify this script further to suit your system configurations.

Thanks to the creator of original Talv 0.1 applet, that was modified further by me.

Submount is a system for automatically mounting and unmounting removable media drives like cdroms and floppy disk drives. It works with the Linux 2.6 kernel series.

A backport to the 2.4 kernel series is available now as well. Once installed, it allows removable media drives to be accessed as if they were permanently mounted.

Installing

Submount is composed of two part: a kernel module called "subfs" and a user program titled "submountd". Both must be properly installed for submount to work. The software is contained in the two directories underneath the submount directory. To build and install the software, read the files titled "INSTALL" in both directories. A few binary packages are now available.

For many distributions, there are packages for 2 different kernels available. This usually means one is for the original distribution kernel, and the second for a kernel released with recent security updates included. Check the package name and the version of the kernel installed on your system carefully to make sure that they match.

For Redhat, Fedora, and Mandrake, Choose the RPM that matches your kernel package. For Debian, download the subfs-modules package that matches your kernel-image deb, download the submountd package, and install both. The .tgz packages for Slackware 9.1 were built for the basic ide kernels, but also work for the scsi.s kernels, and hopefully for others. If you want a package for a different stock kernel from these distributions (such as smp) email me directly.

SuSE 9 contains version 0.2 of submount, with the kernel modules included in the kernel packages, and the userspace portion in a separate "submount" package. The package is included with the professional version, but not with the personal edition, so if you have the latter, get the package from SuSEs ftp site. Theres no integration with yast, however, so youll still have to edit your /etc/fstab file by hand.

SuSE 9.1 will use submount to handle removable media by default.
