Review of Linux Mint 12 Lisa Final Release with the new MGSE (Mint Gnome Shell Extension) and MATE (Fork of Gnome 2.3) desktop environments. 0:01 Intro 1:44 Specific Features to Mint 4:24 Pre-Installed Apps 7:45 Conclusion Linux Mint comes ready to use out of the box with the patent encumbered codecs such as MP3, MP4, and Flash pre-installed, as well as a large selection of applications pre-installed including: Banshee Media Player Firefox Web Browser Thunderbird Email Sun Java Complete suite of LibreOffice Gimp Image Editior gThumb Photo Manager UFW (Uncomplicated FireWall) Conclusion: 80% Linux Mint is an excellent Distro for anyone new to Linux or for anyone wanting a traditional style desktop rather than Ubuntu’s Unity desktop environment. Unfortunately it is let down with some speed issues causing it to be a lot slower than Ubuntu 11.10 (which it is based on)

Magic Fire, Transparency, Wobbly Windows, 3D Cube, Transparent Cube, Skydome, 3D Windows and stuff like it… All the stuff that Windows could do on a supercomputer but this time free and for every (aprox 2years old 3D) graphiccard
There is a lot more than eyecandy you can do using linux, after a while you will get the clue behind opensource and stuff but this is what you need do persuade some people so they know linux is far more than a server-OS. Linux is ready for you Desktop! Due to comments a short Machine outline: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200 GeForce 7900GT 256MB 2GB DDR-Dual-Channel RAM 250GB SATA HDD 1680×1050 32bit Operating system is Ubuntu Edgy Eft, Window Manager is Beryl 0.1.3 and NVIDIA beta driver as current in Dec 2006. System usage during work using beryl and the effects shown: aprox 10-15% The rest is used by the video recording process… Only got 8fps because capturing 1680×1050 images is not that easy I guess
!!!: Of course this is mostly Eyecandy, I agree. :!!! And the wobbly windows make me sick ever 10-20min of using them, but it is still nice to show friends what you CAN do with Linux, and not must do. My brother is using beryl on a cheap ATI Readeon he bought for 11€ at eBay in summer 2006, works nearly as perfect besides he is using 1024×768… But Beryl is not that useless, the transparent desktop helps you to find the Windows you lost *g* I normally switch to Beryl when stuck in work or whatever to make up my mind a bit while watching those …

This is a short demo of some graphics applications (SDL, DirectFB, and Qt) running on the Analog Devices BF548 Blackfin Processor under Linux. Find more information at blackfin.uclinux.org

By Greg Kroah-Hartman As A core member of the Linux Kernel team, Greg will show us how to write a kernel patch. This talk will cover the steps necessary to properly compose, describe, and submit a Linux kernel patch. It will cover the basic usage of git, and how that works with the Linux kernel development cycle. Attendees should have a solid grasp of the C language, and know how to build and install, a Linux kernel from scratch (if not,reading the book, Linux Kernel in a Nutshell, free online, ahead of time would be a very good idea.)FOSDEM (Free and Open Source Development European Meeting) is a European event centered around Free and Open Source software development. It is aimed at developers and all interested in the Free and Open Source news in the world. Its goals are to enable developers to meet and to promote the awareness and use of free and open source software. More info at fosdem.org
