  • 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. Matthew Helmke Administrator, Ubuntu Forums Ubuntu Kung Fu is a fantastic compendium of useful, uncommon Ubuntu knowledge.

  • Linux Virtual Delivery Agent 7.17
    Linux Virtual Delivery Agent 7.17 Feb 26, 2018 The Linux Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) enables access to Linux virtual desktops and applications, anywhere, from any device where Citrix Receiver is installed. You can create Linux virtual desktops and applications based on an RHEL, CentOS, SUSE, or Ubuntu distribution. Prepare your Linux virtual machines, install the new software on them, configure your Delivery Controller, and then use Citrix Studio to make the desktops and applications available to users. https://docs.citrix.com © 1999-2017 Citrix Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. p.1 What's new Feb 26, 2018 What's new in 7.17 Version 7.17 of the Linux VDA includes the following new features and enhancements: Previously available as an experimental feature, adaptive transport is a fully supported feature in this release. Adaptive transport is a new data transport mechanism for XenApp and XenDesktop. It is faster, more scalable, improves application interactivity, and is more interactive on challenging long-haul WAN and internet connections. Users can use a smart card connected to the client device for authentication when logging on to a Linux virtual desktop session. Users can also use the smart card within the session. Use cases include adding a digital signature to a document, encrypting or decrypting an email, or authenticating to a website that requires smart card authentication. For more information, see Pass-through authentication by using smart cards. Starting with this release, Linux VDA 3D Pro supports vGPU for NVIDIA Pascal GPUs (Tesla P40) and vGPU hardware encoding. For information about graphics configuration, see Configure graphics.
