Subject: 6 Best Free Linux Boot Utilities

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

Boot time has a real impact on the first impression of the speed of a system. The time taken for the computer to be ready for use is also important in realising a positive experience for the user. One of the most dramatic ways to improve boot times is to install a solid state drive. However, if you are not looking to replace your mechanical disk drive, there are a number of tools available for Linux that can also help to significantly improve boot times. A word of caution. Before using this type of software, we would strongly recommend that you backup your system as there is always a slight risk of data corruption. In this article, we also identify software to help you customise the boot loader, and to create bootable live USB drives without burning optical media.

Subject: New EU-level spat over open standards

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

The European parliament is currently consulting on a wide-ranging draft European Commission regulation on European standardisation. Voting in the Internal Market and Consumer Protection Committee, which is spearheading the legislation, is set to take place in March. The initiative is intended to create a comprehensive, effective, broadly applicable standardisation system. The Foundation for a Free Information Infrastructure (FFII) has criticised the proposal as paving the way for standards which are poorly compatible with open source software.

Subject: Move The Navigation Buttons Back To The Left In Nautilus 3+ Linux

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

NautilusNav-icon With the ever-changing world of Linux, you can expect things to be different for no apparent reason. Some changes are good, and some just cause trouble for users. In this case, it can just flat-out be annoying. Most people will instinctively look to the left of the file manager for navigation links, such as back and forward. In Nautilus 3+, that’s not where you will find them. Instead, they were moved to the right side of the address bar. That’s not a very natural place for them to be, so today, I’ll show you one way to move them back to the left.

Subject: PC Linux OS 2012.02: nice and stable

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

There are not so many distributions in the Linux galaxy which have names directly showing the purpose of the distribution's creation. I honestly do not think that Bodhi is going to enlighten anybody or Fedora can stay on your head. As opposed to these, PCLinuxOS directly says that it is a Linux operating system intended to be used on PCs.

Subject: Truncate KVM/QEMU Raw Disk Image

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

Most modern filesystems allow you to create virtual disk files without pre-allocating disk space. These virtual disks grow in size as the space is needed. The default virtual disk image type in KVM/QEMU is a sparse “raw” disk image which consumes real disk space as files are added. Interestingly, when files are deleted the virtual disk does not shrink. This makes sense as deleting files from a filesystem doesn’t typically erase the data but only the reference to where the data is stored on the disk. What follows is a recipe to reclaim this disk space.

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

Recently there has been a lot of talk about Hierarchical-Z/HyperZ support for R600g since its set to provide a measurable performance benefit the open-source Radeon driver for modern GPUs. This support has still not been mainlined and there are still a few issues to work out, but at least the support is stable for the older "R300g" driver and has been around for quite a while at this point. For those wondering what to expect from HiZ/HyperZ performance boosts, here is a preview.
