Free wheeling software for linux

IMWheel is a daemon for X11, which watches for mouse wheel actions and outputs them as keypresses.

This is a not so short little ditty that does the simple conversion of mouse button presses into key presses. By grabbing only the 4th and 5th mouse buttons the program is able to receive input from the Intellimouse series mice.

There is also a modified version of gpm included that has, already, support for the Intellimouse, and I added a wheel fifo. The user library may also be used, although this may need to be debugged. See the gpm section below for more.

The wheel button can always be used as middle button, this program does not affect how the XServer, nor GPM, react towards it. A mouse with a wheel button is a 3 button mouse, and should be configured as such!

Installation:

The `configure shell script attempts to guess correct values for various system-dependent variables used during compilation.

It uses those values to create a `Makefile in each directory of the package. It may also create one or more `.h files containing system-dependent definitions.

Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status that you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, a file `config.cache that saves the results of its tests to speed up
reconfiguring, and a file `config.log containing compiler output (useful mainly for debugging `configure).

If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try to figure out how `configure could check whether to do them, and mail diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README so they can be considered for the next release.

If at some point `config.cache contains results you dont want to keep, you may remove or edit it.

The file `configure.in is used to create `configure by a program called `autoconf. You only need `configure.in if you want to change it or regenerate `configure using a newer version of `autoconf.

The simplest way to compile this package is:

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.

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. Optionally, type `make check to run any self-tests that come with the package.

4. Type `make install to install the programs and any data files and documentation.

5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the source code 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.

Kdenlive is a non-linear video editor for KDE. Kdenlive project provides all project management and editing tools while relying on a separate rendering program (currently PIAVE) to perform the editing operations.
Support is planned for transitions, effects, multiple file formats, and full project and asset management support. The current beta release is capable of editing raw DV or AVI DV files, with tools such as move, razor, and resize, selecting parts of clips using in/outpoints, and exporting the result to another raw DV file.
You may playback/preview the contents of the timeline at any point during the edit. Full project save/load is supported.
Enhancements:
- New image formats
- Added support for gimp xcf and exr.
- Other supported formats are: png, jpeg, gif (non animated), xcf, exr, tiff, svg, mp3, vorbis, wav, flash, mpeg, avi, dv, wmv,... You can even insert another Kdenlive project in the timeline!
- Effects and Transitions
- Many fixes, and effects and transitions can now be copied from a clip to another.
- Export formats
- Theora export is now available if FFMPEG was compiled with theora support.
- Timeline
- Improved markers, allow insertion of of several clips in one operation, added "remove empty space" feature, multi clip selection tool
- Metadata
- Kdenlive can now read and write metadata in video and audio files
- Video preview
- Overlay project timecode on the video preview. Click in monitor to play / pause, mouse wheel to seek, multi track view (monitor is split in 4 zones, each one showing a different track),
- Project management
- User can define a frame that will be used as thumbnail for each video clip in the project
- General
- Many fixes to the undo / redo system, lots of ui fixes and enhancements

So far, we have successfully ported a customized uClinux (http://www.uclinux.org) kernel to the iPod, and written a simple user interface for it dubbed podzilla. Many additional Applications have been written, adding many capabilities not found in Apples firmware.

Our bootloader allows for you to choose between either iPodLinux or Apples firmware each time you turn on your iPod. iPodLinux is currently safe to install on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation iPods.

We are currently accepting Donations towards the purchase of a fourth generation iPod for us to test with. The fourth generation click wheel, mini, U2, Photo, and Shuffle iPods are NOT currently supported. For the latest information on 4th gen development, read the Fourth Generation Project Status.

Links is graphics and text mode WWW browser, similar to Lynx. Links displays tables, frames, downloads on background, uses HTTP/1.1 keepalive connections, and features Javascript.

Main features:
- Links runs on Linux, BSD, UNIX in general, OS/2, Cygwin under Windows, AtheOS, BeOS, FreeMint.
- Links runs in graphics mode (mouse required) on X Window System (UN*X, Cygwin), SVGAlib, Linux Framebuffer, OS/2 PMShell, AtheOS GUI
- Links runs in text mode (mouse optional) on UN*X console, ssh/telnet virtual terminal, vt100 terminal, xterm, and virtually any other text terminal. Mouse is supported for GPM, xterm, and OS/2. Links supports colors on terminal.

- Font resampling (antialiasing) for virtually unlimited pitch range, LCD optimization of fonts and images.
- Builtin fonts in the executable without reliance on any fonts installed in the system
- User-adjustable menu, HTML font size and image zoom factor.
- User-adjustable display gammas (red, green, blue), viewing-condition correction gamma and precise calibration of both monitor and Links on a calibration pattern

- Support for one-wheel mice (vertical scroll), two-wheel mice (vertical and horizontal scroll) and smooth scrolling by grabbing the plane with a mouse (no wheel needed).
- Easy installation, the browser is just one executable and no more files.

KPowersave provides battery monitoring and suspend/ standby triggers for KDE.
It is based on the powersave package and therefore supports APM and ACPI.
Whats New in 0.6.2 Stable Release:
- This release depends on powersave >= 0.12.18.
- It fixes autosuspend and inactivity detection (workarounds for broken X libraries), fixes the DCOP function for autosuspend, fixes detection/handling if DBUS/HAL/powersaved are not running, fixes the config dialog to respect DPMS timeout rules, checks the applet menu before trigger autosuspend, fixes distribution detection in configure, and changes the default bug reporting links for dists.
- It adds missing DCOP functions, allows changing brightness with the mouse wheel over the applet icon, and updates the autosuspend blacklist and translations.

Xfce 4 Radio Plugin is a plugin to control your V4l radio device.

Usage:

First, add the plugin to your panel.

Then, to switch your radio on/off, simply left-click on the plugin’s icon (by default it says “- off -”, if it’s turned on it displays the current frequency).

Once turned on, the middle button will show you the station preset menu. This is also the place to set the frequency you’d like to tune your radio to.

The mouse wheel allows you to change frequency or station preset. You can choose your preferred behaviour in the properties dialog (right-click menu).
