Petals on a Rose is an intriguing puzzle game for all ages. This website claims that Bill Gates was stumped by it for two days. Its usually played with a group of friends and a set of 5 dice. The game master rolls the dice and tells everyone the answer. This computer version of the puzzle works similarly, only in this case the computer plays as the game master.

To play you just double click the icon to start the program. Type your guess in the "Answer" field and press "Check". If your guess is correct you get congratulated, otherwise you need to try again. If you get tired of guessing you can press the "Give Up" button and youll get the answer to that particular roll.

Just press the "Roll Dice" button at any time to get a new set of numbers.

Always remember, dont tell the answer to anyone!

Have fun, and good luck.

Gapcmon is a gtk/glib desktop monitor program for the apcupsd package. Apcupsd interfaces with UPS power systems on local or networked systems. gapcmon connects to apcupsd via the NIS api to collect and displays the current operational state of the UPS.
A Gtk2/GLib2 GUI application used to monitor UPS devices controlled by the APCUPSD package. The program uses the NIS interface from apcupsd to collect event and status information for display to the end-user. Because of this great interface, this program can be executed on any OS supported machine and use the network socket interface to connect back to apcupsd. Of course apcupsd must be compiled with nis support
(i.e. ./configure --enable-nis --enable-gapcmon ...).
The general design model for gapcmon assumes the user has one or more UPSs attached to one or more tcpip/hosts with network connectivity to/from the gapcmon workstation. Gapcmon provides a Preferences panel to capture the hostname, port, and polling cycle for that UPS; along with an "enable" checkbox to indicate if the monitor for this configuration should be active. Gapcmon collects status and event information for each enabled UPS configuration and presents it to the user via a Detailed Information window.
Main features:
- FreeDesktop.org Spec for Notification Area Icons.
- Unlimited support for multiple UPSs.
- Historical Graph of five data points are charted. A total of 40 points are maintained on the graph. The data points are LINEV, BATTV, BCHARGE, LOADPCT, and TIMELEFT.
- Clicking an notification icon will cause the information window for that monitor to become visible or be hidden, if its already visible.
- Monitor tooltips are available when hovering the mouse over the icon, and contain a quick summary of the ups status.
- Icons are dynamically added or removed when enabled in preferences.
- Icon changes to reflect the operational state of the UPS.
- o where state is (online, onbattery, charging, not communicating, no cable)
- History graph supports popup tooltip for data point under the mouse pointer, showing dataseries name, color, time, and value.
- Configuration of the tcpi/ip hostname, tcp port number, and whether that monitor is currently enabled is provided via a central Preferences page.
- background thread for all network io to keep user interface responsive.

Apollo is an open-source developer test skeleton toolkit for Web Start. Apollo lets you turbo-charge Web Start apps without Web Start to speed up your compile/run/test/debug/goof-off cycle avoiding the hassle of stuffing, signing, uploading or downloading your jars every time you rearrange a comma in your source code.

Apollo is not a replacement for Web Start (OpenJNLP, NetX or any other app launcher). Apollo is more like a test emulator (such as POSE - Palm OS Emulator) helping you to speed up your development between full-blown, time-consuming, irreplaceable, real Web Start workouts.

Apollo cant fake every Web Start bell and whistle (e.g. download on demand) but outshines Suns Web Start dumb dev pack stubs that merely let you compile your source. Apollo lets you popup your household browser and more without calling in the Web Start machinery.

Apollo consists of a jar that you can use to replace Suns javax.jnlpx stubs residing in jnlp.jar that only allow you to compile your code and that ship with Suns Web Start dev pack.

Apollo is a thin wrapper around Suns javax.jnlpx services. If your app runs under Web Start Apollo will automatically detect it and pass all runtime service calls (such as poping up a browser window) on to the Web Start engine. If your app, however, runs without Web Start Apollo will kick in and mimick Web Starts runtime services.

To use Apollo replace all javax.jnlpx imports with apollo. Example:

import javax.jnlpx.*; // Web Start only
import apollo.*; // Web Start plus Apollo-propelled stand-alone launching

To spare you from learning yet another API set Apollo reuses all runtime service class and method names. The only exception is Apollos ServiceManager class that adds type-safe methods to lookup pre-defined runtime services (e.g. lookupBasicService()) avoiding unexpected runtime errors and reducing source code bloat. Example:

import javax.jnlp.*
...
BasicService bs = (BasicService) ServiceManager.lookup( "javax.jnlp.BasicService" );
bs.showDocument( new URL( "http://vamphq.com/times" ) );

becomes

import apollo.*;
...
BasicService bs = ServiceManager.lookupBasicService();
bs.showDocument( new URL( "http://vamphq.com/times" ) );

or

import apollo.*;
...
ServiceManager.lookupBasicService().showDocument( new URL( "http://vamphq.com/times" ) );

Apollo lets you configure the codebase or the online/offline status of your app if you want to run it without Web Start but still use BasicService.getCodeBase() or Basic.isOffline().

By default BasicService.isOffline() returns false (meaning your app is online). If you want to change the setting you can pass the property apollo.offline=true to your app. As an alternative you can also add apollo.properties to your classpath or bundle it with your apps jar in the root directory. Inside the apollo.properties file add the apollo.offline property to match your desired setting. Note, that all apollo properties only work if your app runs without Web Start.

By default BasicService.getCodeBase() uses the working directory returned by the system property user.dir. To use a different codebase pass the property apollo.codebase=your_url_here to your app. As an alternative you can also add the apollo.codebase property to the apollo.properties file in your apps root directory where Apollo picks it up if you run your app without Web Start.

PHP music player controller (PMPC) is a script that allows navigation through your music directory, and the adding of albums or single songs into a playlist. The project also allows you to play, stop, pause, and go back and forth through the playlist.
Apache needs to run as the same user that is running the music players. In other words, it probably needs to run as whatever your username is. This is a setting in /etc/httpd.conf . So, dont run this on a machine thats visible to the web, or make a user with really strict rules applying to them - so they cant run anything but an x session, desktop environment, and the music player, and cant touch much of anything but their home files.
I guess Id serve the pages out of the users home directory if I was doing that.
If you know a better way to get this to work, please let me know. I dont profess to be an apache-configuration guru, and for all I know this method is really just dumb.
If youre running apache as yourself, youll need to change the session.save_path variable in your php.ini to something that you have write access to, or chmod the directory its currently using.
PS: If amarok or xmms was working fine for you before, let me know. Ill have a chance to test them, and code the support for them here in the next couple of days.
Enhancements:
- Huge improvements were made.
- The appearance of the player interface was improved.
- Amarok is now supported.
- Directories with hyphens in their names should play correctly now.

A-foto is a theme (applet) for Superkaramba. A-foto show pictures on your desktop with different frame decorations and has the ability to change picture at present intervals.

Known Issues in this version:
- There is NO "add to line" mode. The organization of presented images is now accomplished through management of contents of the chosen folder. One suggested way of organizing custom slide shows is to create an empty folder and drag LINKS to preferred photos into that folder. Drop that folder onto a-foto. Presently, this appears to be the easiest way to achieve manageability of slide show content. Your alternative suggestions are welcome.
- Starting a second instance of A-foto from SuperKaramba interface may fail. Double-click on afoto.skz file to start additional applets.
- A-foto settings have "historical priority." Settings for 1st afoto applet ever will always be the 1st in line to be used when you open afoto. To get to the settings of the 3rd afoto instance, you need to open 3 afoto applets. We are working on a solution. Any comments and suggestions are welcome
