These days there is no need to get a fever, they weren't 37,5 degrees. Occasionally our PC catches a fever. When the processes are many, there are too many resources and the PC is not exactly the latest release, we risk overheating it too much Read more…
SoX is a tool for editing audio files via the command line in Linux. Some past projects will allow the use through GUI, but they were in time abandoned all and there remained only the command line (not that I mind). Often the audio file is set to a silent Read more…
With today's article we complete the article in the 31 May on client-to-server printing, no drivers whatsoever. Perhaps not everyone knows that LibreOffice and OpenOffice integrate between their packages to launch some commands through the terminal. These commands are identical for all operating systems (you, Read more…
Today, let's talk about another piece of command line software for Linux: Transcode. This little tool allows you to stabilize a video where the cameraman (the alleged tale) does not have the hand too firm. It can happen on many occasions: over-excitement, crowd, cold, little space, fever, riot, guerriglia urbana, Read more…

Today we talk about BusyBox, a program specially written for “carry” the shell on embedded Linux devices. Among the devices that we can meet with GNU / Linux integrated in the flash memory we find the famous TomTom, some cell phones (Motorola made a trailblazer), and for example many models of decoders for digital terrestrial. Directly Read more…
For those who would like to have more ram, but not if you can afford to mount a virtual board. sudo mount -t tmpfs tmpfs / mnt -o size = 1024m And on reboot everything will return as before.
Gnome has been available for a few days 2.30, this means that the next version will (or it could be) Gnome 3 (which will include Gnome Shell).
