Projects
gqueue: a printing queues monitor with a system tray support.
You can see all the printing jobs for a printer as well remove it.
mynetmonitor: a net monitor with system tray support
in which you can choose the interface to monitor and set a connect/disconnect command.
I have tested gqueue and mynetmonitor on Mandrake 9.2 with gnome, kde and xfce.
Teaching activity (in italian): some slides from
my lessons.
