Subject: XFCE 2.4.0 - Window/Backdrop Manager and Toolbar for X
Date: 19 Mar 1999 19:02:34 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
==========================================================================
== XFce 2.4.0, "the Cholesterol Free Desktop Environment" now available ==
==========================================================================
A) What is XFce ?
- -----------------
XFce is now a set of applications including a powerful Window Manager
(xfwm) compatible with MWM(tm), OpenLook(tm), GNOME (partially) and KDE
hints, a toolbar/application launcher (xfce), a backdrop manager (xfbd),
a system sound manager for X11 (xfsound), a user friendly interface for
mouse configuration (xfmouse) and a pager (xfpager) providing a miniature
view of all XFce desktops.
Unlike so many other X applications, XFce is very easy to use and to
configure, thanks to menus, all mouse driven !
Features pull down menus with color icons, 3D widgets, etc.
Visit now :
HTTP://www.xfce.org
Other mirror sites should be updated very soon :
HTTP://www.linux-kheops.com/pub/xfce/
HTTP://tsikora.tiac.net/xfce/
HTTP://xfce.penguincomputing.com/
XFce is available in source and binary format for Linux (libc5 and glibc rpms
and tarballs), FreeBSD and Solaris 2.6 Intel Edition !
B) What XFce looks like ?
- -------------------------
Take a look at the snapshots at HTTP://www.xfce.org/en/snapshots.html
C) What's XFce for ?
- --------------------
XFce is a toolbar and a kind of desktop environment (XFce standing for XForms
Cool Environment)
With XFce, no need to learn any definition language, or type any configuration
file. XFce does it itself ! Just use the mouse to define your preferences.
XFce provides an elegant and easy way to start all your X-Window applications,
using nice color icons, popup menus, etc.
D) Why should I use XFce ?
- --------------------------
If you're new to Linux and you don't want to learn about any complicated
interface, if you're looking for a real nice interface, or you want to have at
home an interface close to the commercial one you use at work on your expensive
UNIX server, then XFce is made for you.
Moreover, XFce is free and it's extremely stable (never gets "core dump" or
unexpected end)
XFce's help system is entirely in HTML format, including frames and screen
captures.
XFce is now available in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Hungarian,
Portuguese and Slovak !
E) What's new in version 2.4.0 ?
- --------------------------------
Changelog :
version 2.4.0b :
* Improve Compatibility with Linux Kernel 2.2.x
version 2.4.0 :
* New XFPager module
* New XFMouse module
* Improved configurations and startup files
* New default backdrop
* "XFce won't die" bug fixed
* Improved support of KDE in XFwm
F) What archive format are currently available ?
- ------------------------------------------------
XFce is shipped in source format and statically linked binary format.
XFce is available for any Linux system, FreeBSD and SUN Solaris 2.6/Intel
in tar.gz standard format, and RPM (Red Hat Package Management) format for
Red Hat 4.x and 5.x (libc6 compatible)
G) Where do I get this marvelous program ?
- -------------------------------------------
Please visit the official web site for XFce :
HTTP://www.xfce.org
and other mirror sites around the world (may or may not feature the latest
version)
HTTP://tsikora.tiac.net/xfce/

The 5th Annual Linux Expo website has been updated to include Technical and
Business Track information. Share the latest developments in Linux technology
May 18-22nd, in Raleigh, NC. Also, just announced the ExtremeLinux Track,
www.extremelinux.org
The scope of this track, organized by members of the ExtremeLinux mailing list
is ExtremeLinux and Beowulf as it pertains to the following: (1)Introducing
cluster creation and programming to the wider community of Linux programmers
and users. (2) To serve as a platform for introducing and furthering the
adoption of Linux amongst business and other non-scientific users, and thus to
be a platform for showcasing scientific and non-scientific applications. (3)
To have talks on the "Linux" aspects of extremelinux, talks that would be
interesting to the linux user and programmer community at large, for example,
kernel programming like filesystems, system administration, etc.
The program will consist of a highlighted speaker, an extremelinux technical
track(with in Linux Expo), tutorials, and a BoF session. The ExtremeLinux
folks will host live demonstrations at their booth and other cluster related
booths will be part of the program.
The ExtremeLinux sessions will cost $35 to attend, while the technical
program, EL Highlighted Speaker, and BoF;s be included in the rest of Linux
Expo.

Subject: Using TrueType fonts on Unix X11
Date: 19 Mar 1999 19:02:49 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Recent versions of X11 have TrueType support build in. For those with
older X11 versions, and not willing to recompile X11, an easy and quick
solution is to convert TrueType fonts to X11 bitmap fonts.
Many TrueType fonts look better than most standard X11 fonts. Especially
Web documents will often improve dramatically in legibility when using
TrueType fonts.
A manual for easy conversion of TrueType to X11 fonts is at:

Hi there.
This is to announce the general availability of the above CD's, as
follows
Linux Kernel Archives Volumes 1 & 2
This is a two CD set containing all known Linux kernel release
tarballs from v0.01 through v2.1.83 that can still be found (or at
least, those that I have managed to find so far).
Note that a full list of kernel tarballs known to have been released
can be viewed at the following URL, which also contains payment
details:
http://www.memalpha.cx/kernel.versions.html
Be warned in advance that the above document is around 150k in size,
and it does NOT contain any graphics images - its length is simply due
to the number of kernel tarballs and patch files that have been
released in the last eight years...
Please also note that volume 3 is NOT currently available, simply
because I don't currently have enough hard disk space to put it
together ready for burning, but I expect to remedy that situation in
mid-April...
Best wishes from Riley.

=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
The program tsinvest is for the programmed trading of equities. It is
useful for day trading. The new version has one additional command
line switch, -d5, for "noise trading" in highly speculative markets.
The program has a web site at http://www2.inow.com/~conover/ntropix/
- From the lsm:
Title: tsinvest-0.5.tar.gz
Version: 0.5
Entered-date: February 15, 1999
Description: Quantitative financial analysis of equities.
The optimal gains of multiple equity
investments are computed. The program decides
which of all available equities to invest in
at any single time, by calculating the
instantaneous Shannon probability of all
equities, and using statistical estimation
techniques to estimate the accuracy of the
calculated Shannon probability. Entropic
techniques are used throughout. A tutorial is
presented in the man(1) pages. A companion
equity market simulation program is included.

pppcosts is a small utility that calculates and displays the time (and phone
costs) you have been online using a modem or ISDN ppp connection. The time
and costs are saved, so that you can use pppcosts to keep track of your
monthly phone costs. Cost files for many phone companies are included. If
your phone company isn't on the list, then you can create a costfile on your
own, which is very easy.

[Please feel free to pass this to anyone you think may be interested.]
This is an announcement regarding the next meeting of the Southern Tier
of New York Linux User Group (STNY LUG).
It will be held at the offices of the ISP Spectra.Net. Direction details
are below. We will be conducting our own "Holy War" on a variety of topics.
We will be discussing the relative merits of Windowing Systems (fvwm, twm,
KDE, GNOME/Enlightenment) and shells (bash, sh, ksh, csh, tcsh, ash). We
might even break into "emacs vs vi" if we are feeling raucous!
The rest of the session will be the same old thing: laughing, eating, and
talking about all things computer, especially about Linux and Open Source
software.
Date: March 23, 1999
Time: 7 pm
Where: Spectra.Net
271 Main St.
Johnson City, NY 13790
Directions:
http://maps.yahoo.com/py/maps.py?Pyt=Tmap&addr=271+Main+St.&csz=Johnson+City%2C+NY&Get+Map=Get+Map
Come with ideas for future LUG activities, or with problems you are having with
your home/work system!
The current location for the STNY LUG web site can be seen here:

but it will be moving (soon, hopefully) to

Subject: XTide 2.1.2, tide clock and tide predictor
Date: 19 Mar 1999 19:03:48 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
XTide 2.1.2 is now available from ftp://ftp.flaterco.com/xtide/.
XTide is a free tide clock and tide prediction package that has been
honored with inclusion on some Linux CDs. Please refer to the
documentation at http://www.flaterco.com/xtide/ for full information.
If you wish to receive e-mail notifications of all changes to the
XTide software, just e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] asking to get on the
"XTide Beta List."
Changelog for XTide 2.1.2 (1999-03-15)
- --------------------------------------
Add support for color specifications having the deprecated #RRGGBB format,
which recently resurfaced on Debian.
Patch from Falk Hueffner for Timestamp::tm2utc. On his Alpha (BSD?), time_t
is 64 bits but gmtime returns NULL if the time_t is out of a certain range,
which was leading to segfaults.
Fixed reporting of MKTIME_FAILED errors caused by bad timestamps on the -b
and -e switches.
