Linux Today News FEDORA, STILL PUSHING THE ENVELOPE "The latest release of Fedora is out, offering a number of major improvements over its predecessor. Just exactly what does it have to offer the end user, and is it worth the upgrade?" DROID BY MOTOROLA SALES HIT 250K "Verizon Wireless sold 250,000 units of its Droid by Motorola phone, according to eWEEK, which has also given the Droid a rave review. Meanwhile, the rumor of a Google-branded Android phone refuses to die, Palm's CEO trash-talks the Droid, and tomorrow Google will unveil its Linux-based Chrome OS, say various reports." INTRODUCING OPENSHOT "OpenShot (Figure 1) is a non-linear editor (NLE) for video. The "non-linear" qualifier simply means that you can play, edit, and mix video footage in any order or at any point you wish. In addition to this random access a modern digital NLE is typically non-destructive, thereby allowing free experimentation with edits and effects while leaving your original material in pristine condition." WHAT WE TALK ABOUT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT ZEITGEIST "There is a tangible confusion around as to what Zeitgeist is and what it isn�t; what it can do and what it can�t do. This is partly our own fault because we could have communicated this whole thing better..." FREEING DISK SPACE WITH ">" " can free disk space when "rm" cannot."

HOW TO DOWNGRADE GNOME DISPLAY MANAGER 2.28 TO 2.20 IN UBUNTU 9.10 "IMHO the new gdm 2.28 shipped by default with Ubuntu 9.10 is really just work in progress. It�s fine for what it currently supports, but it does not support the range of functionality that gdm 2.20 does. Perhaps the biggest issue is Multiseat X." MAKING YOUR MIXED KDE AND GNOME DESKTOP LOOK COOL "Here�s a howto for Debian and Mandriva which explains how to make your desktop look nice if you�re using a mix of KDE and GTK+. Because Ubuntu is based on Debian, this howto might also apply to Ubuntu, but I have not verified this." STORAGE VENDORS CUT COSTS WITH OPEN SOURCE "Two data storage vendors are out with new products this week that they claim can save users a bundle over more traditional storage systems. Nexenta and ParaScale both use open source software and commodity hardware to lower storage costs for enterprises." OPEN MESSAGING FOR THE OPEN WEB: INSTALLING AND CONFIGURING MOZILLA RAINDROP ON "I was intrigued by Raindrop and having used other Mozilla lab experimental software I was determined to see what all the hype was about.

"Godin writes today about embracing the "lifetime value" of a customer. Open source projects may not have customers, but it pays to think about the lifetime value of users as well." LIVEBLOG: GOOGLE CHROME OPERATING SYSTEM ARRIVES "Today, November 19th, we're finally going to get a good look at Google's Chrome desktop operating system. Join me as I give a live overview." UBUNTU'S CANONICAL AND GOOGLE PARTNER TO CREATE CHROME "Some people may see Google's Chrome operating system as competing with existing Linux desktop distributions.

What should be in the default installation?" COOPERATIVE BUG ISOLATION FOR FEDORA 12 "We distribute specially modified versions of popular open source software packages. These special versions monitor their own behavior while they run, and report back how they work (or how they fail to work) in the hands of real users like you." EVO GAME CONSOLE GOES LIVE EVO Open Source Game Console Goes Live: Game On Nov. 20 streaming event: Derrick Samuels debuts the final version of EVO FEDORA 12 BOASTS ENHANCED PERFORMANCE, IMPROVED REPORTING, BETTER GRAPHICS "Today, Fedora 12 was released (November 17, 2009).

This was in 2004, in the days before the iPhone when smart phones were found only in the pockets of executives and sales people." 10 YEARS OF SOURCEFORGE.NET "Most people think of SourceForge.net these days as another huge web site with lots of ads, but very few understand its humble beginnings or how challenging it was to even launch the darn thing without the powers-that-be at VA killing it off in a fit of well-intentioned hari kiri."
