This is a collection of links about software that I use on linux. Almost links are related to programs that run under the GNOME Desktop Environment. Ok, I like GNOME... :-)
Internet |
Mozilla |
www.mozilla.org |
These are some of the most popular browser under Linux. I think Mozilla is the best one, but Galeon has won the favors of many users. Galeon and Skipstone are based on Mozilla's web page rendering engine, Gecko. |
Galeon |
www.sourceforge.net |
Skipstone |
www.muhri.net |
Evolution |
www.ximian.com |
Mail clients. Evolution is the best project I know but it is on beta status. Pronto is very usable when coupled with a database like MySQL or PostgreSQL. Balsa is very light and nice. |
Balsa |
www.balsa.net |
Pronto |
www.muhri.net |
Pan |
pan.rebelbase.com |
The best news reader on Linux. |
XChat |
xchat.org |
The best IRC client of the world. |
GnomeICU |
www.sourceforge.net |
Good ICQ client. |
Graphics |
The Gimp |
www.gimp.org |
Only two words: the best! |
GQView |
www.sourceforge.net |
GQview is a good images viewer with thumbnails preview. gThumb is a thumbnails previewer with viewer capability and more. |
gThumb |
www.sourceforge.net |
Multimedia |
XMMS |
www.xmms.org |
XMMS is a good (not only) mp3 player with a lot of plug-ins and skins. Grip is a new CD player and an interface for the manipulation of audio tracks. Glame will be the Gimp of the audio, a very good project. |

Linux - Why use Windows, since there is a door? |

Mac for productivity. Linux for development. Palm for mobility. Windows for laughs. |

This is Linux Country. On a quiet night, you can hear Windows reboot. |

Alpha Test Version: Too buggy to be released to the paying public / Beta Test Version: Still too buggy to be released / Release Version: Alternate pronunciation of `Beta Test Version' |
(Peter Toneby - IMP Mailing List) |
Debian GNU/Linux: Because reboots are for hardware and kernel upgrades. |
(Adam Lazur - Beowulf Mailing List) |
Your mouse has moved. In order for the change to take effect, Windows must be restarted. Reboot now? [OK] |
