Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Players
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Players :: MP3
About: Cymbaline is a learning music player. It sets a score for each
track based on your listening habits, and you can set thresholds to create
playlists with your favorite tracks automatically. In random mode, it will
play your favorite tracks more often. It also allows album-based
navigation: you can start playing the next album, skip 2 albums ahead, go
to a specific album, etc. It has a random queue mode where you see a list
of randomly chosen tracks that play consecutively. The queue is also built
based on song scores.
Changes: A random queue startup bug was fixed. The gom mixer is used
instead of aumix (because aumix is broken in Ubuntu). ALSA is used instead
of OSS in the Pymad player engine. Loading of .ogg and .mod files was
disabled because they're not played by Pymad.

[018] - GNU ddrescue 1.8-pre2 (Development)
by Antonio Diaz Diaz (http://freshmeat.net/users/ant_diaz/)
Thu, Jan 10th 2008 11:25
System :: Recovery Tools
About: GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool. It copies data from one file
or block device (hard disc, cdrom, etc) to another, trying hard to rescue
data in case of read errors. GNU ddrescue does not truncate the output
file if not asked to. So, every time you run it on the same output file,
it tries to fill in the gaps. The basic operation of GNU ddrescue is fully
automatic. That is, you don't have to wait for an error, stop the program,
read the log, run it in reverse mode, etc. If you use the logfile feature
of GNU ddrescue, the data is rescued very efficiently (only the needed
blocks are read). Also you can interrupt the rescue at any time and resume
it later at the same point.
Changes: The new option "--synchronous" has been added.

modifications. The main goal of this project is to provide a framework for
Flex 2/EJB3/Spring/Pojo application development with full AMF3/RemoteObject
benefits.
Changes: The main enhancements in this release are Guice/Warp services and
a sample application, full compatibility with Flex3 beta3, and fixes for
problems where Gravity (GDS push feature) didn't compile and
Authentication error handling didn't work.

Changes: This version fixes problems with the user-configurable
definitions and variables (/def and /set) commands. URLs in the output
window are now underlined to give the user visual indication that they can
be activated. New code has been added to clean URLs, removing some common
MU* characters (such as quotation marks) before sending them to the Web
browser. A menu option has been implemented, allowing users to add a
current connection to their World Connector.

[030] - libviper 1.3.0
by TragicWarrior (http://freshmeat.net/users/TragicWarrior/)
Thu, Jan 10th 2008 15:53
Software Development :: Libraries
About: libviper is an API for quickly developing console, curses-based
interfaces with mouse support (GPM). It's a good alternative to the panels
library. The API preserves many of the familiar ncurses monikers. It also
provides, basic, GTK-like window signal handling.
Changes: The default state of newly created windows was set to NORESIZE.
When this bit is set, windows will not feature the "resize grip" in the
border. Ground work for multiple workspaces was incorporated and
predefined window management was moved out of the library in favor of a
better event framework. New callbacks were implemented for border
manipulation freeing, which allows "window-focus" and "window-unfocus"
events to be overridden without consequence. Trivial code clean-ups were
done.

About: magicErmine allows the same Linux executable to be run on a wide
range of different distributions. Like statifier, It makes one executable
file with no run-time dependencies from a dynamically linked executable
and all of its libraries. Unlike statifier, it is able to add arbitrary
files to the packed executable, such as configuration files or pixmaps.
Changes: Support for litle-endian ARM (OABI) was added. A potential
problem with packaging on systems without /lib/tls and /usr/lib/tls
directories was fixed.

[047] - rsyslog 3.10.1 (Development)
by Rainer Gerhards (http://freshmeat.net/users/rgerhards/)
Thu, Jan 10th 2008 06:55
System :: Logging
About: Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd. Among other
features, it offers support for reliable syslog over TCP and RFC 3195,
writing to MySQL and PostgreSQL databases, fully configurable output
formats (including great timestamps), the ability to filter on any part of
the syslog message, and on-the-wire message compression. It is designed as
a drop-in replacement for stock syslogd and thus is able to work with the
same configuration file syntax. Of course, some enhanced features require
changing the configuration file, but in general, this should be fairly
easy.
Changes: This version is a bug fixing and minor feature enhancement
release. It fixes a race condition, some memory leaks, and some
documentation bugs of 3.10.0. Performance has also been somewhat improved.
Feature-wise, it offers a new disk queue mode, which in its current form is
of limited usefulness. In its current form, the disk queue is of advantage
for users who expect large queues, which can now be kept on disk. This
release is a recommended update for all users of the v3 series.

System :: Boot
System :: Installation/Setup
System :: Recovery Tools
About: Super Grub Disk is a bootable floppy or CDROM that is oriented
towards system rescue, specifically for repairing the booting process.
Super Grub Disk is simply a Grub Disk with a lot of useful menus. It can
activate partitions, boot partitions, boot MBRs, boot your former OS
(Linux or another one) by loading menu.lst from your hard disk,
automatically restore Grub on your MBR, swap hard disks in the BIOS, and
boot from any available disk device. It has multi-language support, and
allows you to change the keyboard layout of your shell.
Changes: Gfxboot support was removed. Some distributions use an old
Gfxboot-GRUB version, and it conflicted with the SGD Gfxboot version. This
issue made some users trying to boot Linux on these systems get a blank
screen instead of a menu.

[059] - Virtual Machine Manager 0.5.3
by Daniel Berrange (http://freshmeat.net/users/danielpb/)
Thu, Jan 10th 2008 22:52
System :: Systems Administration
About: The Virtual Machine Manager (virt-manager for short) is a desktop
application for managing virtual machines. Since it uses libvirt, it is
capable of managing machines from any hypervisor supported by libvirt. Xen
is the current primary target. The application's views provide summaries
and detailed statistics on performance and resource utilization. A wizard
facilitates creation of new guest domains, both para-virtualized and
fully-virtualized. Console access is enabled either to a text based serial
console or fully graphical access via an embedded VNC client.
Changes: This is a bug fix release. The sizing of the VNC window was fixed
for screens where the physical size is less than the guest screen size. The
"new vm" button is switched back to its old more obvious style and
placement. Restoration of VMs is working again for local connections. A
menu for sending special key sequences to the guest is added. Lots of
other miscellaneous bugs were fixed.
