RE: Project Managers
by Keith Watson 20 Aug '02

20 Aug '02

Was this the sort of thing you were after? GRAN PM 1.6 http://freshmeat.net/releases/93584/ GRAN PM is Web-based project management software, which includes a task management system, bug tracking software, and employee timesheet tracking. It makes it easy to identify program bugs and enhancements, identify important items that need to be brought to the attention of management, detect resource conflicts and scheduling problems, and provide clear reports on the status of all projects and tasks.

OEone's Linux desktop experiment enters a new phase
by Keith Watson 20 Aug '02

20 Aug '02

Although it's not strictly GPL, an interesting bit of software if only because they're trying to break out of the Windows/Mac model. I'm not that sure they've succeeded.

lm_sensors, sensord and temperatures
by bsamuels＠beenthere-donethat.org.uk 19 Aug '02

19 Aug '02

I have, at last, managed to get lm_sensors working on my Tyan Thunder K7 dual processor board and I am monitoring the results with Gkrellm. This gives me two levels of warning. (1) Chips are getting hot - sound the alarm and (2) Turn the thing off before it cooks. Can anyone tell me what temperature values I should set for these and ditto for the chassis temperature? As I have also managed to get this machine to turn itself off after shutting down (shutdown -h now) I can also set Gkrellm to activate this at the higher temperature of the two levels. I can also run sensord to log temperature levels but have had to disable it because it keeps logging a chassis intrusion detection alarm. Although the board has a header for this it is not connected. Anyone know a way of disabling this? Many thanks Barry Samuels

E-Mail Chess
by Keith Watson 19 Aug '02

19 Aug '02

Are there any chess players out there? I'm looking for software that supports the playing of chess games via e-mail. There's quite a list on Sourceforge and Freshmeat. Any feedback on the relative merits or personal experiences of chess software for GNU/Linux would be appreciated. Keith ____________ The beginning of wisdom is calling things by their right names.

Linux Standard Base Specification
by Keith Watson 19 Aug '02

19 Aug '02

I've just been reading a Newsforge article about the above <http://newsvac.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=02/08/16/1952202> and wondered if anyone has taken the time to read through the formal specification for the above? It seems a great idea but I found the volume of input a bit overwhelming. It there a "LSB for Dummies" out there somewhere? Keith ____________ Is there life before death? Zen saying

Any old harddrives?
by Keith Watson 19 Aug '02

19 Aug '02

I'm putting together a scratch system for a friend of mine with somewhat limited means. To date I've got everything but a hard drive. Has anyone got an old 2Gb, 3Gb or similar sized hard drive going spare? (and before you ask, yes it will have GNU/Linux as one of the boot options, depending on the size of the disk, but I'm also looking at supplying a Knoppix CD) Keith ____________ This ain't no technological breakdown, this is the Road to Hell.

QEmacs, a surprising editor
by MJ Ray 16 Aug '02

16 Aug '02

I just downloaded and installed the qemacs editor. (Debian: apt-get install qemacs.) If you open an HTML file with it, it renders it and lets you edit the rendered version a bit. You can get at the source for more serious changes with M-x xml-mode, but it surprised me that a sub-200k editor contains an CSS-based HTML renderer. Amazing, eh? It also can edit utf-8 (multilingual) with a variety of input methods taken from Yudit. It's still early days for this editor (and I've filed some bugs against it), but it's quite promising and I thought I'd let you all know. QEmacs is at http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemacs/ Yudit is at http://www.yudit.org/
