  • Ubuntu Kung Fu
    Prepared exclusively for Alison Tyler Download at Boykma.Com What readers are saying about Ubuntu Kung Fu Ubuntu Kung Fu is excellent. The tips are fun and the hope of discov- ering hidden gems makes it a worthwhile task. John Southern Former editor of Linux Magazine I enjoyed Ubuntu Kung Fu and learned some new things. I would rec- ommend this book—nice tips and a lot of fun to be had. Carthik Sharma Creator of the Ubuntu Blog (http://ubuntu.wordpress.com) Wow! There are some great tips here! I have used Ubuntu since April 2005, starting with version 5.04. I found much in this book to inspire me and to teach me, and it answered lingering questions I didn’t know I had. The book is a good resource that I will gladly recommend to both newcomers and veteran users.

  • Panoramas Shoot with the Camera Positioned Vertically As This Will Give the Photo Merging Software More Wriggle-Room in Merging the Images
    P a n o r a m a s What is a Panorama? A panoramic photo covers a larger field of view than a “normal” photograph. In general if the aspect ratio is 2 to 1 or greater then it’s classified as a panoramic photo. This sample is about 3 times wider than tall, an aspect ratio of 3 to 1. What is a Panorama? A panorama is not limited to horizontal shots only. Vertical images are also an option. How is a Panorama Made? Panoramic photos are created by taking a series of overlapping photos and merging them together using software. Why Not Just Crop a Photo? • Making a panorama by cropping deletes a lot of data from the image. • That’s not a problem if you are just going to view it in a small format or at a low resolution. • However, if you want to print the image in a large format the loss of data will limit the size and quality that can be made. Get a Really Wide Angle Lens? • A wide-angle lens still may not be wide enough to capture the whole scene in a single shot. Sometime you just can’t get back far enough. • Photos taken with a wide-angle lens can exhibit undesirable lens distortion. • Lens cost, an auto focus 14mm f/2.8 lens can set you back $1,800 plus. What Lens to Use? • A standard lens works very well for taking panoramic photos. • You get minimal lens distortion, resulting in more realistic panoramic photos. • Choose a lens or focal length on a zoom lens of between 35mm and 80mm.

  • Software Wars, Business Strategies and IP Litigation
    Software Wars, Business Strategies and IP Litigation Immediately after Oracle America filed a patent infringement suit against Google Inc. in August 2010 the trade press labelled this a “software war.” Their interest was a trial featuring Oracle’s “star” counsel David Boies. In mid-January often cited Florian Mueller of NoSoftwarePatents, wrote “Google is patently too weak to protect Android—Google’s cell phone software.”1 (On April 4 Lead bidder Google offered $900 million for Nortel’s 6,000 patents and applications. A decision is expected in June}. By the end of March he had counted 39 patent infringement suits against Google.2 Whether Oracle wins Oracle v Google or not, Oracle and IBM may become losers. It is important that Oracle not alienate the software development community or its customers as it attempts to monetise the assets from the Sun Microsystems—now Oracle America— acquisition. The Oracle v. Google complaint was carefully targeted at Google’s Android software, avoiding the appearance of monetising the Java language and platform itself. The Android software was developed as open source in conjunction with the Open Handset Alliance. Android's mobile operating system is based on a modified version of the Linux kernel, subject to Linux patents. Google published all of the computer code under an Apache Software Foundation License.3 This license is royalty-free and places no restrictions on derivative products or commercial use. Based on IDC market share estimates by the fourth quarter of 2010, Android phones had 39% of the market. An Oracle asset gained through the acquisition of Sun was the OpenOffice open-source software—one of the only remaining substantial “competitors” to Microsoft’s document processing applications.

  • Introduction to Linux
    Presentation to U3A - Linux Introduction 8 June 2019 – Terry Schuster - [email protected] What is Linux? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux https://www.iotforall.com/linux-operating-system-iot-devices/ In simple terms, Linux is an operating system which was developed to be a home-built version of UNIX, one of the first operating systems which could be run on different brands of mainframe computers with quite different types of hardware. Linux has developed to the extent that it is the leading operating system on servers and other big iron systems such as mainframe computers, and the only OS used on TOP500 supercomputers (since November 2017, having gradually eliminated all competitors). It is used by around 2.3 percent of desktop computers. The Chromebook, which runs the Linux kernel-based Chrome OS, dominates the US K–12 education market. In the mid 2000’s, Linux was quickly seen as a good building block for smartphones, as it provided an out- of-the-box modern, full-featured Operating System with very good device driver support, and that was considered both scalable for the new generation of devices and had the added benefit of being royalty free. It is now becoming very common in IoT devices, such as smart watches/refrigerators, home controllers, etc. etc. BTW, Tux is a penguin character and the official brand character of the Linux kernel. Originally created as an entry to a Linux logo competition, Tux is the most commonly used icon for Linux, although different Linux distributions depict Tux in various styles. The character is used in many other Linux programs and as a general symbol of Linux.

  • KDE Plasma 5
    Arvo Mägi KDE Plasma 5 Tallinn, 2017 1 Sissejuhatus KDE töökeskkonnale pani aluse saksa programmeerija Matthias Ettrich 14.10.1996. 2016. a oktoobris sai populaarne KDE seega 20. aastaseks. Hea ülevaate KDE ajaloost annab artikkel „19 Years of KDE History: Step by Step.” KDE 4.14 ilmumisega oli KDE saavutanud kasutusküpsuse, kuid edasine areng kippus takerduma – vaja oli põhimõttelisi uuendusi. Otsustati võtta kasutusele iseseisvatel moodulitel põhinev KDE 5 arhitektuur – Qt/Frameworks. Kõik KDE rakendusprogrammid, sh Plasma 5 töölaud, kasutavad ainult konkreetse rakenduse jaoks vajalikke mooduleid. Varem kasutati kõigi rakenduste jaoks ühist suurt teeki, mis raskendas muudatuste tegemist ja pidurdas arendustööd. Qt on C++ programmeerimiskeskkond. Pikaajalise toega Qt 5.9 LTS ilmus 31. mail 2017. KDE Frameworks on 70 moodulist koosnev komplekt, mis lihtsustab Qt keskkonnas KDE programmide koostamist. Frameworks veaparandused ja täiendused ilmuvad iga kuu. KDE Plasma 5 töölaud põhineb KDE Frameworksil (KF5). Töölaua veaparandused ilmuvad iga kuu, vajadusel mitu korda kuus, uued versioonid kord kvartalis. Plasma 5.8 LTS, mis on pikaajalise toega (18 kuud), ilmus 4.10.2016, veidi enne KDE 20. aastaseks saamist. Plasma 5.10 ilmus 30.05.2017. Järgmine pikaajalise toega Plasma 5.12 ilmub 2018. a jaanuaris. Plasma 5 töölaud on pälvinud palju kiitvaid hinnanguid ja sobib igapäevaseks tööks. Eeldab kaasaegset, mitme tuumaga protsessori ja piisava mäluga (vähemalt 4 GB) arvutit. SSD kettalt töötab välkkiirelt. Töölaud on keskkond rakendusprogrammide käivitamiseks ja kasutamiseks. KF5-le on üle viidud kõik KDE põhirakendused (failihaldur Dolphin, pildinäitaja Gwenview, konsool Konsole, teksti- redaktor Kate, ekraanitõmmise võtja Spectacle, videoredaktor Kdenlive, plaadikirjutaja K3b jt). Need on KDE Applications koosseisus, mille uued versioonid ilmuvad kolm korda aastas, veaparandused kord kuus.
