10 list of cool apps on linux

in this post I will give some good information about the applicationon the Linux operating system

below are 10 applications you should try the linux os.

1: Floola

Floola isn’t an open source application, but it does run on Linux (as well was OS X and Windows). Floola takes music management (in particular, synching iPods) one step further. With this nifty application, you can download and convert YouTube videos for playback on your iPod. But unlike some other clunkier applications, Floola does this seamlessly and simply. No commands to enter; it’s all GUI. The only possible gotcha is that before you can add videos from YouTube, you have to install ffmpeg on your Linux box. Floola uses ffmpeg for the conversion process.

Don’t expect Floola to have all the bells and whistles that iTunes has. Floola offers Photo support, Snarl (Windows only) support, Growl (Mac only) support, Notes, repair iPods, export lists to HTML, language support, lyrics, duplicate and lost file search, artwork support, video support, Google calendar support, playlists, podcast, lastfm support, and more. Floola is simple to use in Linux, as it comes in an executable binary that you can simply copy to the /usr/bin directory and run with the command Floola.

2: Transkode

Sticking with the multimedia theme, Transkode is a front end for the highly flexible, modular command line toolset Transcode. Transcode is one of the most versatile audio and video converting tools available. Transcode has both a graphical and a text-only interface and supports a vast number of formats including DV, MPEG-2, MPEG-2 Part 2, H.264, Quicktime, AC3, and any format included under libavcodec. Transcode can import DVDs on the fly and record from Video4Linux devices. The problem with Transcode is that the commands can get a bit overwhelming for the average user. Transkode remedies this by employing a user-friendly interface that makes the complex business of converting multimedia format files as simple as it can be.

3: Giver

This is one of those brilliant little pieces of software that, once you start using it, you won’t be able to live without. Giver allows you to easily drag and drop files to users on your network. It will automatically detect other Giver users on your network. When you drag a file (or multiple files) to a user (represented by an avatar) on the Giver window, the files are automatically transferred. The recipient of the files is warned that a user wishes to send files. The user can accept or decline them. The only downside to Giver (as of this writing) is that there is only a candidate available for Ubuntu. I have tried to install on both Fedora and Mandriva with no luck. Ubuntu installation is as simple as apt-get install giver. This application makes transferring files literally as simple as drag and drop. A must-have for company file sharing.

4: Transmission

Sticking with the file sharing motif, Transmission is an outstanding bit torrent client makes for simple torrent management. To seed the client, you simply have to click the torrent link to open up Transmission. We all know that downloading copyrighted data is illegal. But that doesn’t mean clients like Transmission have no use. In enterprises where large-scale data transmission is a must, employing applications like Transmission can enable end users or clients to download large pieces of data much more easily. And having a client like Transmission to make this a no-brainer is a must.

5: BloGTK

No matter what business you’re in, you are most likely affected by a blog of some sorts. And a lot of people do blog. Many companies allow employees to blog and many employees blog even if they aren’t supposed to. There are times when your blogging fix must come in bits and bites, and you have complete your blog in chunks and offline. For this you need a client like BloGTK. BlogGTK can connect to WorPress, Movable Type, MetaWeblog API, Blogger, and more. This client allows formatting, custom tags, categorizing, inserting tables, images, and links and offers a spell check. You can also add excerpts and preview your posts before you upload them.

6: Ark

The Ark application is often overlooked, especially by Linux veterans. Ark is an archival manager. When you click on an archive package link (.tg, .tgz, etc) in your browser, you typically can either save the file or open the file with Ark. Most users just save the file and then drop into the command line and use the tar utility to unpack the archive. Why do this when Ark can handle the task quickly and cleanly? When efficiency becomes a necessity, tools like Ark should not be overlooked, even by expert users. One nice aspect of Ark is that you can open an archive and extract a single file from the package without actually unpacking the file. This can be done from command line but it’s much easier (for most) to have a GUI that lets you right-click a file and select Extract.

7: Tea

Tea is a text editor for programmers of nearly any language. Tea was created with bits of GPL’ed code from a number of other applications to create a one-stop-shop for coders. Tea supports built-in file manager, spell check, built-in search, tabbed layout, multiple encodings, code snippet/session/template support, OpenDoc, RTF, Kword, Abiword, OpenOffice support, SRT-subtitle preview, text analyzer, key customization,  HTML tools, bracket matching, Wikipedia/Docbook/LaTeX support, string-handling functions, bookmarks, and more.

8: Nano

Nano is one of my personal favorite editors. For years I used Pico, until it was crippled by licensing issues. Nano took Pico’s place. Nano is an ncurses-based text editor that is far easier to use than either vi or emacs. Nano takes Pico and improves it, offering UTF-8 support, better color syntax highlighting, copy text without cutting, verbatim input, repeat last search, spell check, indent marked text, search within file browser, and more. Nano works within any terminal window, has an incredibly small footprint, and is as reliable as any editor available. And unlike Pico, Nano is simple to install on nearly any distribution.

9: MultiTail

Imagine being able to use tail to follow multiple files in one window. That is what MultiTail does. MultiTail is a Linux administrators’ dream come true. With the ability to follow any log file (and as many log files as you can stand in one window) MultiTail can stack multiple tails of log files vertically or horizontally, with colors or without. Commands like multitail -s 2 /var/log/messages /var/log/security.log will follow the messages and the security.log logs in two vertical columns in one window. MultiTail is very easy to use.

10: TinyCA

The command-line creation of certificate authorities requires a veritable dance of the fingers at the keyboard. The TinyCA application takes care of all of that typing for you. TinyCA makes the creation of certificate authorities a breeze. With TinyCA, you can create unlimited CAs and SubCAs, server and client certificates with multiple language support. If your IT department needs a CA management tool, you should look at TinyCA first. TinyCA is open source, written in Perl/Gtk, and works with OpenSSL.

linuxmint julia

tentang linuxmint julia

Akhirnya, saya bisa juga membuat sedikit review tentang Linux Mint 10 Julia. Setelah berjuang mendapatkan Linux Mint Julia dengan menggunakan Transmission, karena saya memilih untuk menggunakan file Torrent saat mengunduhnya, serta menggunakan kecepatan 3G dari Telkomsel yang memiliki kecepatan hanya sekitar 45 kbps, selama 4 jam. Karena saya mengunduhnya pada malam hari, maka saya tinggal tidur saat mengunduh Linux Mint 10 Julia. Pagi harinya, saya belum bisa mencoba Linux Mint 10 Julia, karena saya harus ke Rumah Sakit untuk cek darah dan juga fungsi hati. Baru malam inilah saya bisa mencoba Linux Mint 10 Julia. Berikut ini sedikit review yang bisa saya berikan, walaupun sebelumnya saya pernah menulis tentang Linux Mint 10 Julia RC
Berbeda dengan Helena dan Isadora, tampilan awal dari Linux Mint 10 Julia adalah wallpaper Linux Mint yang berwarna agak hitam. Sebelumnya, wallpaper default Linux Mint selalu didominasi warna hijau. Termasuk background GRUB. Banyak pilihan wallpaper yang menarik dan juga cantik untuk menghiasi desktop Linux Mint 10 Julia. Salah satunya adalah Treeish:

Desktop Linux Mint 10 Julia

Selain itu, theme dan icon dari Linux Mint 10 Julia sangatlah menarik. Dengan menggunakan theme default Mint-X-Metal, dan icon Mint-X, membuat Linux Mint 10 Julia sangat berbeda denga Linux Mint sebelumnya yang menggunakan theme Shiki Wise. Icon-icon pada menu dibuat lebih menarik dan juga lebih cantik. Sayangnya saya tidak bisa menampilkan screenshot dari menu Linux Mint ini. Untuk aplikasi bawaan, saya rasa sama dengan pendahulunya, yaitu Linux Mint 9 Isadora yang tetap membawakan GIMP sebagai aplikasi editor gambar. Plugin flash player pada firefox masih tetap ada, sehingga walaupun menggunakan live cd atau live usb, kita masih bisa berselancar pada situs-situs yang memiliki aplikasi flash.

Tampilan file manager Linux Mint 10 Julia sangat menarik. Dengan background berwarna hitam, serta icon folder yang lebih menarik, membuat file manager Linux Mint 10 Julia lebih nyaman.

Yang paling menyenangkan bagi saya adalah wifi Realtek RTL8191/8192 SE pada notebook Axioo Pico PJM milik saya langsung terbaca saat saya mencoba Linux Mint 10 Julia menggunakan Live USB. Karena saya dirumah ada sinyal hotspot, langsung saja saya coba wifi notebook saya. Hasilnya, saya bisa membuat tulisan ini menggunakan Linux Mint 10 Julia Live USB.

network connection Linux Mint 10 Julia

Sepertinya, salah satu dari 2 Linux yang menghuni notebook Axioo Pico PJM milik saya akan tergusur. Entah itu Linux Mint 9 Isadora, atau Fedora 12. Kecantikan dari Julia telah membuat saya jatuh hati dan ingin segera memasangnya pada notebook milik saya. Sepertinya cukup sekian review tentang Linux Mint Julia dari saya. Mungkin suatu saat setelah Linux Mint 10 Julia saya pasang pada notebook milik saya, akan ada sedikit review lagi.

follow the trail of twitter, google seek celebrities

Google seems ambitious for his new social networking known among Hollywood celebrities. At the age of three weeks since its launch, Google + rumored to have a plan to recruit celebrities.
As quoted from the pages of CNN, for starters that Google plans to build verification systems that can identify celebrities who sign + Google account. The validation process is done to prevent someone who mimics (impersonating) celebrities.
According to Brett Schulte, social media consultant from Hollywood celebrities Tweet House, it would resemble the process verification stamp "Verified Account" which has been used Twitter.
Google still searching for the proper verification methods. One method is to use Google to verify, according to Schulte, among others, asking celebrities to send copies of driver's license via fax to Google.
In addition, Google will also compile lists a number of agents and consultants who can send verification requests directly. "They (Google +) are excited to have celebrities," said Schulte.
In 2008, Google launched a trial program in the United States that allows people to validate their identity in his Google profile. That system will check the person's name and phone number, to then be asked for your PIN code when contacted. Once validation is complete, there will be a sign of "verification" in the profiles of people who do the validation.
Stamp "Verified Accounts" on Twitter now it has become a symbol of social status of a celebrity. Brett Schulte himself claimed to have helped a number of celebrities get the verification stamp it, among them is George Michael.
However, Google spokesman denied the plan of recruiting Hollywood celebrities. "We have not provided detailed information about Google + future plans," the statement during a Google spokesman confirmed to CNN. "We still have plans to increase the number of features and functions to be added to Google +."
One plan features will be added to Google + is a "business profile", for a corporate account. Google still searching for methods of verification for company profile.

Strategies for dealing with deadlocks

Strategies for dealing with deadlocks can be divided into threeapproaches, namely:


1. Ignoring the existence of deadlock.

2. Ensure that deadlock will never exist, either by the method ofprevention, by preventing the four conditions of deadlock that will never happen. Avoiding deadlocks method, allowing fourdeadlock conditions, but stop any process that may reach a deadlock.

3. Allowing deadlocks to occur, this approach requires twomethods support each other, namely:

                1. Deadlock detection, to identify when a deadlockoccurs.

                2. Deadlock recovery, restoring the resources needed toprocess the request.


From the explanation of the above approaches, there are fourmethods to overcome the deadlock that will occur, namely:

Ostrich strategy

The simplest approach is to use the ostrich strategy: put your head in the sand and as if there never was a problem at all. A variety of opinion arising in connection with this strategy.According to the mathematician, the way is totally unacceptableand all deadlock situation should be handled. While experts saytechnique, if the computer more often suffered damage caused by a hardware failure, error on the compiler or bugs in the operating system. Then the cost paid for deadlock handling isbigger and better to ignore such a deadlock situation. This method is applicable to UNIX and MINIX operating system.
