Download Full Version Linux Mint 7

I wanted to do this for a few months now but I never found a few quiet hours for it… I finally installed Linux Mint 7 on my PC, alongside with Windows XP for now. I gave Ubuntu a try last year but I gave up on it because of the many difficulties with the hardware. What happened with Ubuntu is that I barely made the sound to work after long hours of trying and I just couldn’t make it to properly recognize my wide screen display, never. That’s why, although I liked its looks and functionality, I decided to give up on it.
Somebody recommended Linux Mint here, it was Dusan if I remember correctly, and now I finally had the chance to install it. I chose the latest release, Linux Mint 7 Gloria.  I went for the “install inside Windows” option for now and I guess it’s the best way to go for a Windows user that just wants to explore the Linux Mint option without getting too complicated. This menu will appear if you insert your Linux Mint CD while running Windows and you’ll get to install it like any other program.


Well, not quite like any other program though. You will have to reboot to complete the installation and then when you will start your computer you will be asked which operating system you want to use for that session, Windows or Linux Mint.

The whole process shouldn’t take more than 15 to 20 minutes to complete. After that you’ll have the possibility to explore Linux Mint and trust me, it’s quite appealing. The first thing that I checked when I first started Linux Mint was the sound. And guess what? It worked! I set up the network connection with no difficulty and even the display problem that I had in Ubuntu was solved in a couple of minutes! With everything up and running I just had to relax and enjoy Linux Mint. It looks great, it’s fast and the functionality is marvelous once you get used to the differences between Linux Mint and Windows.

The Control Center is just what the Windows Control Panel should be, a great interface to your system properties and controls. There are several programs that are pre-installed, like Firefox or Gimp, but you can always add new free programs easily.


I am very impressed with Linux Mint, very impressed. The looks are awesome and you’ll have no trouble in getting all your hardware to work, at least I had none of that. The only thing that keeps me from uninstalling Windows XP right now is that I have some Windows programs that I really need for my work and those programs don’t work under Linux yet. When they will work I guess I’ll have no regrets, I’ll switch to Linux Mint right away. For now I’m going to keep both operating systems, so I’ll have a dual boot PC, but I’m going to use Linux Mint for my day-to-day tasks like surfing the web or writing and keep Windows just for the special tasks that require special programs.
I strongly encourage you to try Linux Mint, it’s open source, completely free of charge, and from what I see a way better operating system than Windows – faster, more secure and great looking without requiring huge memory resources. You can download it from the link below, than make yourselves a bootable CD and go!

Download Full Version Gridy

 Gridy

Features Overview

• Adds an invisible grid to Windows and any window you move or resize is snapped to that grid.
• Can make a window semi-transparent.
• Can minimize all windows but the active one.

Review
Gridy is a tiny freeware utility that can add an invisible grid on your Windows desktop and snap any window that you move or resize to that grid. I’d call it a freeware program for order and symmetry maniacs, and some people argue that I’m one of those myself. I like my windows to be arranged nicely on my desktop, so Gridy might provide great help in doing that. You won’t have much to do after installing the program.  For example, while a window is active, press and hold the Win key and press the arrow keys to move the window in fixed intervals. The snapping effect can also be achieved by simply moving or resizing that window. If you double click the tray icon the help screen will pop up with the various available actions and shortcut keys.

If you right click the tray icon you can modify some of the parameters of the program, make windows transparent and some other actions.

You can also use Gridy to close all the windows except the active one, resize a window to a predefined size or set a window to be always on top.

Features Overview

• Allows you to create bootable Live USB drives for a variety of Linux distributions
• Works both from Windows and Linux
• Can also be used to load various system utilities like partition managers or system repair tools.

Review
UNetbootin is a small freeware utility that allows you to create bootable USB drives for a wide range of Linux distributions. I decided to install and test Linux Mint on my PC and I didn’t want to create a bootable CD, it’s much easier and comfortable to use and USB disk for that purpose. Although UNetbootin supports dozens of Linux distributions and versions it still does not support the latest version of Linux Mint. That was not a big problem though, I downloaded the .iso file and loaded it into the program easily.

The USB disk that I inserted was recognized automatically by the program, so everything was ready to go.

It took less than five minutes to create the bootable USB disk and it was extremely easy, I just had to make a few clicks and wait.

You can also use this freeware program to run several system utilities from an USB disk, partition managers or system recovery tools.

Download Full Version Find And Run Robot

 

Find And Run Robot

Features Overview

• Easy to use, no configuration needed to run.
• Extremely customizable.
• Lightweight and fully portable.
• Dozens of skins and plugins available.

Review
I was using Launchy to find an easy way to launch programs in my very crowded computer. I had no problems with it so far, maybe just the lack of more customization options was a bit annoying. Many of you recommended another freeware alternative, Find And Run Robot (FARR), a program made by Mouser from DonationCoder.com. I had it on my “to be tested list” for quite some time now and yesterday I finally decided to give it a try. The first thing that I thought of was the memory footprint, so I started both Launchy and FARR and compared the memory usage. As you can see from the picture below FARR is way lighter than Launchy, only around 3.5 megs needed while running in the background.

Next I tried to see how fast it is, and believe me, it’s pretty fast! And the searches might get faster and faster because it caches programs you launch for instantaneous repeat searches and adaptive scoring. The program is described as the “ultimate program for keyboard maniacs” and as one of these maniacs I tend to agree with that description. You just have to press a key (pause/break is the default one) to display the FARR window, then just type the first letters of the program you want to run and the results appear right away. Then hit enter to launch the top result and that’s it. But wait, there’s more! FARR also allows you to run web searches, send email, manipulate files or control on-screen windows.

Last but not least this is one of the most customizable pieces of software I’ve ever seen. You can change the hotkeys, fonts, just about anything related to the program. You might be able to change the world too if you try hard enough

The program author posted a very nice list of the unique features in Find And Run Robot, you can read it here. There is also a great community around the program and several plugins and skins that were created to enhance this freeware gem.

Features Overview

• Several built-in utilities like extended delete or synchronize folders.
• Enable or disable commands which are added by other applications to the context menu.
• Customize the “Send to…” submenu.
• Can add commands which run external programs in the context menu.

Review
I was using MmmFree to customize the Windows Explorer context menu but since several readers recommended FileMenu Tools as a much better free program for that purpose I finally decided to give it a try. FileMenu Tools is basically a freeware program that allows you to customize the Windows Explorer context menu while adding several features to it. That’s right, it not only gives you the power change the existing entries but it adds a whole bunch of interesting features. If you take a look at the screenshot below you can see which are these features, I’m just going to name a few of the most interesting ones: split or join files, synchronize folders, advanced delete, shred files, duplicate files, pack to folder.

You can keep just the features that you like and need and that’s a big plus. As mentioned before you can also enable or disable the commands that were added to the context menu by other programs. You can do that easily with FileMenu Tools, just a few clicks and the context menu will look just the way you want it.

Last but not least you can add commands which can run any installed program of your choice.

The only thing that I found annoying about this program is that you can’t access the menu by right clicking on any of the entries, you have to use the toolbar buttons or the menu once you select an entry.

RealVNC Enterprise 5.0.0

Quote: Select all

RealVNC - system implements remote administration using the protocol RFB (Remote FrameBuffer). Many PC users often need to access your computer without being this close to him. In such a situation may be useful VNC.Programma program consists of server and client side (server side must be installed on the computer that you want to gain remote access). From many other similar programs is characterized by simple installation and configuration. VNC lets you work with the same desktop computer with a variety of platforms. Thus, users of Windows operating systems can easily work with desktop remote server that is running the operating system Unix.

Minutes of VNC, which uses a program is a simple protocol remote access to graphical user interface. The basis of this protocol on a simple principle: to display a rectangle containing the pixel data in the given coordinates x and y. Due to the different coding schemes such seemingly inefficient way to display the components of the interface becomes a powerful tool for transferring graphic information.

VNC It consists of two components: server and client. VNC-server generates a display image, and subsequently the user sees on his screen. VNC-client, connecting to the VNC-server, constantly asks for an updated image of the display at the VNC-server. At high speeds, connection requests are carried out very often, which allows the user to see a smooth picture when you move the desktop components such as windows running programs. At low speeds the above requests are done less frequently, which may affect the display of graphical objects changing their positions or when the information contained therein.

VNC Enterprise Edition - a product for Windows, Unix and Mac, which includes a full security architecture, built-in transmitter files and advanced tools for framing. For businesses of all sizes. From start to finish, designed and created the first developers of VNC, Enterprise Edition provides security, stability and easily controlled by remote control with a minimum of interference.

Features:
• Built-in sessions, provides protection from connection tracking, attacks to intercept packets of data and information, and much more.
• Authorization Server uses 2048-bit RSA keys to verify identity.
• Authorization user name and password supports up to 256 characters.
• Secure communications with 128-bit AES - the choice of experts for high-quality encryption.
• Platform-Native Authentication eliminates the need for separate VNC and system passwords. Members get access to desktops, using the same username and password as the login. For Windows, this is the identification of a NT-Domain or Active Directory, and for Unix - via NIS / NIS +.
• Single HTTP & VNC allows VNC Server to serve VNC Viewer for Java and VNC sessions through a single TCP port, simplifying NAT and firewall.
• Scaling the desktop to a certain size, in certain proportions, no matter what size you choose.
• Cross-platform interaction with the rest of the VNC Enterprise.
• File Transfer lets you copy files between your server and viewer computers over the connection VNC, without the need for additional settings.
• Tools for Windows help equip automation equipment and software configuration of VNC across your enterprise.

RealVNC is a server and client application for the Virtual Network Computing (VNC) protocol to control another computer's screen remotely. RealVNC is produced by the company RealVNC Ltd., Which was founded by the same AT & T team that created the original VNC program. RealVNC can be seen as a continuation of the original VNC program. RealVNC runs on Windows, Mac OS X (Enterprise edition only), and many Unix-like operating systems (Free & Enterprise editions only). There is also a RealVNC client which runs on the Java platform. There are beta versions of the Enterprise edition for Pocket PC and 'VNC-over-HTTP' tunnelling for Windows and Linux.

VNC has a wide range of applications including system administration, IT support and helpdesks. It can also be used to support the mobile user, both for hot desking within the enterprise and also to provide remote access at home, or on the road. The system allows several connections to the same desktop, providing an invaluable tool for collaborative or shared working in the workplace or classroom. Computer support within the geographically spread family is an ever popular use.

For the individual user, one common scenario is using VNC to help troubleshoot the computer of a distant less-technically-savvy relative. In other words, sitting at your desk in Baltimore, you could use VNC to take control of your relative's PC in California and show them how to install and use some new software package by actually doing it yourself.

A very common business application of VNC is in remote system administration, where it is used to allow administrators to take control of employee machines to diagnose and fix problems, or to access and administer server machines without making a trip to the console. VNC can also be used to provide a flexible hot-desking and road-warrior environment by allowing employees to access their office desktop and server machines from any machine in the company's offices or from other remote sites, regardless of the type of computers involved at either end.

VNC is widely used in educational contexts, for example to allow a distributed group of students simultaneously to view a computer screen being manipulated by an instructor, or to allow the instructor to take control of the students' computers to provide assistance. Of course, as these examples illustrate, the variety of uses of VNC is really as diverse as the many millions of VNC users.
