They are input devices, output devices, storage devices and processing devices. The main input devices include the keyboard, mouse, microphone and scanner. The main output devices include the monitor, speakers, headphones and printer. The main storage devices include the hard disk drive, compact disks, USB pen drives and flash cards. The main processing device is the CPU. Chapter 4 – You have already learned how to switch on a computer in Classes 1 and 2. You should know that ‘booting up’ a computer turns on the power to the CPU. The CPU then loads the operating system so that the user can tell the computer what to do. The operating system uses a ‘graphical’ environment, or picture, so that you can see what the computer is doing. You can talk to the computer through clicking on small pictures called icons. This is easier than using the keyboard and typing all commands as text. This means you don’t to remember all the commands that make the computer do work. Practical Exercises 1. Turn on the computer, login to the MX-16 Desktop, then restart the computer. 2. After restarting the computer from the MX-16 Desktop, use the Grub Menu to select the Windows 8 operating system for ‘booting up’. 3. Login to the Windows 8 Start Menu. Select the Desktop from there and open a game. 4. Select and open a Paint or Wordpad program from the Windows 8 Start Menu. Open. 5. Shutdown the Windows 8 operating system from the Start Menu and Login window. Homework Exercises (in addition to book exercises) Name these computer devices and write I for input device, O for output device, and S for storage device. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16.

Ctrl + home key – moves cursor to the top of a document 5. Ctrl + end key – moves cursor to the bottom of a document 6. Page Up – moves the cursor or page up one screen 7. Page Down – moves the cursor or page down one screen 8. Insert – turns on/off the adding of text to the cursor position in a line 9. drag – holding down a mouse button and moving the mouse 10. drop – releasing a held down mouse button after moving the mouse Summary Paragraph Chapter 5 – You learned the names of the buttons on the keyboard in Classes 1-2. Now you will learn more of the keys used when typing words into documents. These special keys are called Navigation keys. Navigation means ‘movement’ and these keys move the mouse cursor or arrow pointer around the words and lines of text being typed in a word processor. They make it easier to type a sentence, paragraph or story. You will learn more about the special ways to type text in the next chapter of your book. Practical Exercises 1. You will use Tux Type to practice typing on the keyboard. Complete as many lessons as you can each time you are in the computer classroom. Try to type words without looking at the keyboard letters and numbers. This is called Touch Typing. Try to memorize the ‘home row’ of keys pictured below. [a s d f j k l ;] Class Three [Final Term] Study Notes from Chapters 6-7: Vocabulary 1. word processor – a special kind of text editor 2. Microsoft Word – a Windows word processor program 3. Libre Officer Writer – a Linux word processor program 4. document – any kind of text saved by a word processor program 5. formatting – changing the style of letters typed in a word processor program 6. ribbon – top tool bar of Paint or Microsoft Word 7. color box – tool bar with colors for text in a word processor program 8. magnifier – used to make text bigger or smaller – by zooming in or out 9. crop tool – used to cut a piece out of a picture 10. skew tool – used to stretch pictures Summary Paragraphs Chapter 6 – A word processor is a program for writing, editing, formatting and saving text. The style, size and color of letters can be changed easily. The program also checks for spelling mistakes. All of the tools for doing these changes are located at the top of the page and the icons just need to be clicked on to work. Tool tips are messages that tell you what each tool does. They appear when you move the mouse pointer over the tool icons. You will learn how to make changes to text after it has been typed and how to save documents. Chapter 7 – Drawing with a computer program can be fun. You will practice with several ‘paint’ programs. They all have tools for drawing – like brushes, lines, adding text to a picture, shapes, etc. After finishing a drawing, you can save it and work on it again later if you want to make changes. You can resize a picture, rotate it, even stretch it out of its original shape. You will learn the names of all the tools and how to use them. When you have finished practicing you will be able to add your own pictures to stories you may write with the word processor. Practical Exercises 1.

  • Resurrect Your Old PC
    Resurrect your old PCs Resurrect your old PC Nostalgic for your old beige boxes? Don’t let them gather dust! Proprietary OSes force users to upgrade hardware much sooner than necessary: Neil Bothwick highlights some great ways to make your pensioned-off PCs earn their keep. ardware performance is constantly improving, and it is only natural to want the best, so we upgrade our H system from time to time and leave the old ones behind, considering them obsolete. But you don’t usually need the latest and greatest, it was only a few years ago that people were running perfectly usable systems on 500MHz CPUs and drooling over the prospect that a 1GHz CPU might actually be available quite soon. I can imagine someone writing a similar article, ten years from now, about what to do with that slow, old 4GHz eight-core system that is now gathering dust. That’s what we aim to do here, show you how you can put that old hardware to good use instead of consigning it to the scrapheap. So what are we talking about when we say older computers? The sort of spec that was popular around the turn of the century. OK, while that may be true, it does make it seem like we are talking about really old hardware. A typical entry-level machine from six or seven years ago would have had something like an 800MHz processor, Pentium 3 or similar, 128MB of RAM and a 20- 30GB hard disk. The test rig used for testing most of the software we will discuss is actually slightly lower spec, it has a 700MHz Celeron processor, because that’s what I found in the pile of computer gear I never throw away in my loft, right next to my faithful old – but non-functioning – Amiga 4000.

  • Archons (Commanders) [NOTICE: They Are NOT Anlien Parasites], and Then, in a Mirror Image of the Great Emanations of the Pleroma, Hundreds of Lesser Angels
    A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES WATCH THIS IMPORTANT VIDEO UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact MUST-SEE THE OCCULT REASON FOR PSYCHOPATHY Organic Portals: Aliens and Psychopaths KNOWLEDGE THROUGH GNOSIS Boris Mouravieff - GNOSIS IN THE BEGINNING ...1 The Gnostic core belief was a strong dualism: that the world of matter was deadening and inferior to a remote nonphysical home, to which an interior divine spark in most humans aspired to return after death. This led them to an absorption with the Jewish creation myths in Genesis, which they obsessively reinterpreted to formulate allegorical explanations of how humans ended up trapped in the world of matter. The basic Gnostic story, which varied in details from teacher to teacher, was this: In the beginning there was an unknowable, immaterial, and invisible God, sometimes called the Father of All and sometimes by other names. “He” was neither male nor female, and was composed of an implicitly finite amount of a living nonphysical substance. Surrounding this God was a great empty region called the Pleroma (the fullness). Beyond the Pleroma lay empty space. The God acted to fill the Pleroma through a series of emanations, a squeezing off of small portions of his/its nonphysical energetic divine material. In most accounts there are thirty emanations in fifteen complementary pairs, each getting slightly less of the divine material and therefore being slightly weaker. The emanations are called Aeons (eternities) and are mostly named personifications in Greek of abstract ideas.

  • Pulseaudio Rationale Pulseaudio Rationale
    2021/07/28 16:43 (UTC) 1/7 PulseAudio Rationale PulseAudio Rationale With the release of the first beta of what will be version 14.2, PulseAudio has been introduced as default audio server in Slackware Linux. This historical change comes out mostly from necessity, as the bluetooth stack BlueZ has dropped the ALSA plugin for audio output, making the presence of PulseAudio mandatory for playing any audio coming from Bluetooth devices. From Slackware's Changelog: After upgrading to BlueZ 5 recently, everything seemed to be working great, but then it was pointed out that Bluetooth audio was no longer working. The reason was that the newer BlueZ branch had dropped ALSA support and now required PulseAudio. So with some trepidation, we began investigating adding PulseAudio to Slackware. Going back to BlueZ 4 wasn't an option with various dependent projects either having dropped support for it, or considering doing so. After several iterations here refining the foundation packages and recompiling and tweaking other packages to use PulseAudio, it's working well and you'll likely not notice much of a change. But if you're using Bluetooth audio, or needing to direct audio through HDMI, you'll probably find it a lot easier to accomplish that. Best of all, we're finally a modern, relevant Linux distro! ;-) Before this moment, there was no technical need for introducing PulseAudio as a basic component of the distribution, and linking the audio components directly to ALSA devices gave all the features needed by users without PA's known backsides. Removing PulseAudio Completely It should be noted that, as PulseAudio is now a basic system component, with many applications directly linked to it, the following procedure for removing PulseAudio is unsupported.
