Free very small software for linux

grml-small is a bootable CD (Live-CD) based on Knoppix and Debian. grml-small includes a collection of GNU/Linux software for system administrators and provides automatic hardware detection.

Whereas grml (without the -small) provides more than about 2.1GiB of software on a 700MB-ISO, grml-small is a very small rescue system for systemadministrators.

It is not necessary to install anything to a harddisk, you dont even need a harddisk to run it. Due to on-the-fly decompression grml-small includes about 150 MB of software and still fits on a business card CD-ROM or USB device with 50MB.

Initial release of grml-small, a very small version of the grml-system. Notice that there are several hacks to reduce the ISO-size, so you wont find for example documentation and manpages on the ISO.

grml-small provides support for booting via USB, see http://wiki.grml.org/doku.php?id=usb for details.

Kernel is based on vanilla kernel 2.6.12 including several patches (MPPC/MPPE, Reiser4, Squashfs,...) but compared with the normal grml system the kernel features have been reduced. See http://grml.org/kernel/ for more details.

A Small MUD project is a minimal MUD implementation.

A Small MUD is a minimal MUD implementation, with some mildly intelligent mobs running around creating rooms.

A few pointers when reading the source code... the World class contains the "cells" in the dungeon - all those are created randomly by the mobs.

The MobFactory class contains and controls all mobs in the world - the class holds a reference to the World class.

Cells are specified by the World::CELL struct and mobs by the MobFactory::MOB struct. The SmallHandler class contains the World, MobFactory, and active sockets list (via SocketHandler).

Finally, the SmallSocket class handles all socket communication and the ListenSocket template class acts as the socket listen server.

Very Simple Control Protocol Daemon is a daemon for home automation tasks.
VSCP protocol is a very simple and free protocol for SOHO automation tasks & friends. The protocol is so easy that everyone can grasp the idea behind it in a few minutes.
Therefore its also very easy to construct and use VSCP aware modules and components. Nodes just start up and then serve the control solution reliable and stable for ever and ever and ever.
The protocol is free and is not designed to conquer the world and every Small Office and HOme. Very Simple Control Protocol Daemon is constructed just because its fun to make tiny little things work together.
Enhancements:
- The port was changed from 1681 to the IANA registered 9598. Scripts for Digitemp support and the first version of the ODIN database were added.

Damn Small Linux Not is built on Damn Small Linux technology. Damn Small Linux Not is also small, bigger than DSL but smaller than most. Damn Small Linux Not provides a reliable, and compact array of applications based mostly on the GTK2 libraries.
DSL-N is not an evolution of DSL, it is not intended as progress over the philosophy of DSL, but is intended for a different user, or the same user under different circumstances.
Main features:
- it is small
- it has software which is feature full
- it takes advantage of redundant lib dependencies and suits to pack features into a tight distribution
- DSL-N has a modern kernel and does not squeeze out critical modules that would limit compatibility
Like DSL, DSL-n can:
- Boot from from a CD as a live Linux distribution (LiveCD)
- Boot from a USB pen drive
- Boot from within a host operating system (thats right, it can run *inside* Windows)
- Run very nicely from an IDE Compact Flash drive via a method we call "frugal install"
- Transform into a Debian OS with a traditional hard drive install
- Run fully in RAM
- Modularly grow -- DSL-N is highly extendable without the need to customize
- The applications in DSL-N were chosen because they are functional, usable, and relatively compact. Unlike DSL, DSL-N has GTK2 applications, that means DSL-N will need more ram and CPU cycles than DSL. To have a pleasant experience, we recommend at least 64MBs and 300MHz.
DSL-N, unlike DSL, does not have a hard size cap, but it is being developed by the DSL team, and we hate bloat! So, dont expect DSL-N to get too big.
Why are you making this offshoot of DSL when DSL is so successful? Because a 50MB, GTK2 based distribution, with a 2.6.x kernel and excellent hardware detection/support is a contradiction in terms. DSL-N represents our best effort to stay compact while providing for the needs of those who want the Bling Bling such as SATA support, Gnumeric, Abiword, gMplayer.
Enhancements:
- Added "noprompt noeject" to default boot options for frugal installs.
- Fixed madwifi wireless.
- Fixed chpasswd vs passwd. "secure" boot option now works correctly.
- Added gnu-utils into the base iso.
- Fixed USB2 not loading bug
- Improved mydsl=hdxy when specified to not also search this makes it consistent with restore boot option.
- Enhanced exitcheck to prompt warning if no backup device is selected when requested to save special settings.
- Fixed multi user hard drive install bug.
- Added murgaLua Lua/Fltk development toolkit.

SMA software consists of a small collection of programs that perform different tests for association between genotypes at a single marker and a binary disease status.

Simple Sound for Small Devices (libsssd) is a simple cross-platform audio library. Simple Sound for Small Devices is designed primarily for games on portable devices such as smart phones, PDAs, and hand-helds.
Simple Sound for Small Devices is designed as a very portable, cross-platform API for sound playback on small and embedded devices. Target platforms include smartphones, PDAs, Smart displays, webpads and embedded systems.
Target OSes include Linux (OSS/Free), Win32, WinCE/PPC/Smartphone, Symbian, and AmigaDE (both hosted and native). The library is biased toward real-time audio applications (like games), but is suitable for a wide array of other uses.
Installation:
To install the libsssd library, cd to the src direcotry and type make install
To make the demo applications, cd to the test directory and type make
Enhancements:
- Updated code to work with libsndfile 1.0.5
- Modularized each function for OSs that support tool libraries (AmigaDE)
- Added initAudio() and freeAudio() functions to allocate the control structure as different compilers may not pack the struct the same.
- Added support to init the audio player with different sample rates, bit depths, and channels (stereo, mono). Added support for user setting max number of playing channels and max number of cached samples at init time.
- fixed bug in player thread overflow functions (la,lb)
