  • Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 32 Bit!
    Welcome to Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 32 Bit! What is Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7? Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 is a full replacement for Microsoft©s Windows and Macintosh©s Mac OS for any Intel based PC. Of course we recommend you check the system requirements first to make sure your computer meets our standards. The 64 bit version of Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 works faster than the 32 bit version on a 64 bit PC however the 32 bit version has support for Frets On Fire and a few other 32 bit applications that won©t run on 64 bit. We have worked hard to make sure that you can justify using 64 bit without sacrificing too much compatibility. I would say that Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 64 bit is compatible with 99.9% of all the GNU/Linux applications out there that will work with Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 32 bit. Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 is based on Ubuntu 8.04 but includes KDE 3.5 as the default interface and has the Mac4Lin Gnome interface for Mac users. What is Different Than Windows and Mac? You see with Microsoft©s Windows OS you have to defragment your computer, use an anti-virus, and run chkdsk or a check disk manually or automatically once every 3 months in order to maintain a normal Microsoft Windows environment. With Macintosh©s Mac OS you don©t have to worry about fragmentation but you do have to worry about some viruses and you still should do a check disk on your system every once in a while or whatever is equivalent to that in Microsoft©s Windows OS.

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.

  • Resumen Los Widgets, Pequeñas Aplicaciones De Escritorio, Se Han Convertido En Objeto De Estudio Para Este Trabajo
    Resumen Los widgets, pequeñas aplicaciones de escritorio, se han convertido en objeto de estudio para este trabajo. Se ha analizado y estudiado su entorno, funcionamiento y estructura. Como resultado se ha obtenido una definición del concepto de widget, con diferentes ejemplos prácticos, y una comparativa entre las compañías más destacadas que ofrecen widgets (Apple, Microsoft, Yahoo!, Google y Opera) así como de las diferencias a nivel de estructura e implementación que se encuentran entre sus widgets. En el apartado de estudio también se ha dado atención a los usuarios de estas aplicaciones, explicando cuáles son sus necesidades, costumbres y posibilidades de elección en este campo. Otro de los apartados trata de cubrir algunas de las tecnologías más relevantes implicadas en la creación posterior de un widget, la aplicación Dashcode, el lenguaje de programación JavaScript, y los canales RSS. El tema de los widgets también ha dado lugar a todo un apartado de desarrollo. Se ha creado un widget para la plataforma de Apple, Macintosh. El widget proporciona al usuario las últimas noticias y resultados del mundo deportivo, concretamente de dos deportes, fútbol y baloncesto. Todas las fases del proceso de creación del widget han sido descritas de principio a fin, desde los bocetos iniciales a la puesta en funcionamiento, pasando por el prototipado e implementación. De manera adicional, también se ha incluido un apartado dedicado al diseño de widgets, con algunas y consejos a tener en cuenta al diseñar widgets en general. Por último se han vertido diferentes conclusiones fruto del presente trabajo y de la reflexión sobre la situación actual de este campo, sin olvidar los aspectos a mejorar, las áreas en que se está trabajando y las perspectivas de futuro.

  • Examination of Gdesklets Dependencies
    Examination of gDesklets Dependencies S.Fourmanoit M.Pirnat Montr´eal and Cleveland, March 20, 2005. 1 Foreword This document tries to determine what is, at the time of writing, the minimal set of dependencies required to compile and run gDesklets on an up-to-date desktop system. The author spent several hours testing, as systematically as time permitted, all possible avenues, following often-contradictory indications provided by official documentation, emails, forums, automated build source, how-tos and bug reports. It is not by any means a canonical reference on gDesklets installation, merely a report of what seems the current state of this software regarding its dependency tree. 2 Test system Most of the gDesklets user base uses Linux, although the software is also sup- ported on numerous other platforms; it is even being actively ported to Win- dows. For the sake of this report, the author built a reference platform using Gentoo Linux. The base system was built from the Gentoo 2004.3 x86 Stage 1 tarball, and all the default profile USE flags were cautiously adjusted to be1: Use flag Description +mmx Adds support for optimizations for Pentium MMX and Athlon class processors +3dnow Adds support for 3dnow multimedia processor instructions +x86 indicates that architecture is x86 +nptl Enable support for Native POSIX Threads Library +nptlonly Remove suport for previous pthread interface -oss Adds support for OSS (Open Sound System) -apm Adds APM (Advanced Power Management) support -arts Adds support for aRts: the KDE sound daemon -avi Adds Win32 AVI support and also adds avifile (Library for avi) support 1Flags in red were selected, while those in blue were not.

LUCRE stands for Local and User-Created Services. The project is part of the Flexible Services research programme, one of the programmes of the Strategic Centre for Science, Technology and Innovation in the ICT field (TIVIT) and funded by Tekes (the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation) and the participating organizations. The Flexible Service Programme creates service business activity for global markets. The programme has the aim of creating a Web of Services. The programme creates new types of ecosystems, in which the producers of services, the people that convey the service and the users all work together in unison. As part of such ecosystems, LUCRE will develop an easy-to-use, visual service creation platform to support the creation of context aware mobile services. The goal is to support user-driven open innovation: the end- users (people, local businesses, communities) will be provided with tools to compose new services or to modify existing ones. The service creation platform will build on the technology of existing mashup tools, widget frameworks, and publish/subscribe mechanisms.
