  • UKUI: a Lightweight Desktop Environment Based on Pluggable
    2016 International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Computer Science (AICS 2016) ISBN: 978-1-60595-411-0 UKUI: A Lightweight Desktop Environment Based on Pluggable Framework for Linux Distribution Jie YU1, Lu SI1,*, Jun MA1, Lei LUO1, Xiao-dong LIU1, Ya-ting KUANG2, Huan PENG2, Rui LI1, Jin-zhu KONG2 and Qing-bo WU1 1College of Computer, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha, China 2Tianjin KYLIN Information Technology Co., Ltd, Tianjin, China *[email protected] *Corresponding author Keywords: Desktop environment, Ubuntu, User interface. Abstract. Ubuntu is an operating system with Linux kernel based on Debian and distributed as free and open-source software. It uses Unity as its default desktop environment, which results in more difficulties of usage for Microsoft Windows users. In this paper, we present a lightweight desktop environment named UKUI based on UbuntuKylin, the official Chinese version of Ubuntu, for Linux distribution. It is designed as a pluggable framework and provides better user experience during human-computer interaction. In order to evaluate the performance of UKUI, a set of testing bench suits were performed on a personal computer. Overall, the results showed that UKUI has better performance compared with Unity. Introduction Linux is a freely available operating system (OS) originated by Linux Torvalds and further developed by thousands of others. Typically, Linux is packaged in a form known as a Linux distribution for both desktop and server use. Some of the most popular mainstream Linux distributions are Red Hat [1], Ubuntu [2], Arch [3], openSUSY [4], Gentoo [5], etc. There are several desktop environments available for nowadays modern Linux distributions, such as XFCE [6], GNOME [7], KDE [8] and LXDE [9].

  • For Dr Landau's PHYS8602 Course
    For Dr Landau’s PHYS8602 course Shan-Ho Tsai ([email protected]) Georgia Advanced Computing Resource Center - GACRC January 7, 2019 You will be given a student account on the GACRC’s Teaching cluster. Your username will be your UGA MyID and the password is your UGA MyID password. You will be able to access/use this account for the duration of the course. At the end of the semester your account will be deleted, so make sure to transfer (download) any files that you would like to keep to your local machine/drive by the end of the semester. 1 Machine characteristics • Machine name: Teaching cluster • Login node (node where you login to) name: teach.gacrc.uga.edu • Operating System: 64-bit Linux (CentOS 7.6) • Types of nodes: – The login node is an Intel Xeon. – The compute nodes (nodes where your programs will run) are Intel Xeons. – The cluster also has two interactive nodes, which are AMD Opterons. These nodes are used to run applications that have a graphical front-end, such as graphing programs. • NOTE: No jobs should be run on the login node!!! 2 Where do I find documentation about GACRC and the teaching cluster? • Webpage: http://gacrc.uga.edu/ Provides a general overview of GACRC. • Wiki: https://wiki.gacrc.uga.edu/wiki/Main Page Provides documentation about the teaching cluster, including how to connect to it, how to transfer files, how to compile code, how to run jobs, what software packages are installed, etc. • Training Opportunities: https://wiki.gacrc.uga.edu/wiki/Training GACRC provides free training workshops on how to use computing clusters, how to use Linux, etc.

  • Kali Linux 2021.1 Release (Command-Not-Found)
    Published on Tux Machines (http://www.tuxmachines.org) Home > content > Kali Linux 2021.1 Release (Command-Not-Found) Kali Linux 2021.1 Release (Command-Not-Found) By Roy Schestowitz Created 24/02/2021 - 11:16pm Submitted by Roy Schestowitz on Wednesday 24th of February 2021 11:16:42 PM Filed under GNU [1] Linux [2] Security [3] How you choose to interact with Kali is completely up to you. You may want to access Kali locally or remotely, either graphically or on the command line. Even when you pick a method, there are still options you can choose from, such as a desktop environment. By default, Kali uses Xfce, but during the setup process, allows for GNOME, KDE, or no GUI to be selected. After the setup is complete, you can install even more. We have pre-configurations for Enlightenment, i3, LXDE, and MATE as well. [...] When we use Kali, we spend a significant amount of time using the command line. A lot of the time, we do it using a local terminal (rather than in a console or remote SSH). With the options of desktop environments, there are also choices when it comes to the terminals (same with what shell to use). [4] Also: Kali Linux 2021.1 released: Tweaked DEs and terminals, new tools, Kali ARM for Apple Silicon Macs [5] GNU Linux Security Source URL: http://www.tuxmachines.org/node/148105 Links: [1] http://www.tuxmachines.org/taxonomy/term/144 [2] http://www.tuxmachines.org/taxonomy/term/63 [3] http://www.tuxmachines.org/taxonomy/term/59 [4] https://www.kali.org/blog/kali-linux-2021-1-release/ [5] https://www.helpnetsecurity.com/2021/02/24/kali-linux-2021-1-released/.
