Prevent Your Laptop From Overheating With Thermald And Intel P-State [Updated] Linux Thermal Daemon (thermald) is a tool developed by Intel's Open Source Technology Center which monitors and controls the CPU temperature, preventing it from overheating.

Thermald tries to prevent the CPU from overheating without a significant impact on performance by using some specific Intel functions available in the Linux Kernel. According to the Ubuntu wiki, thermald can control cooling using: active or passive cooling devices as presented in sysfsthe Running Average Power Limit (RAPL) driver (Sandybridge upwards)the Intel P-state CPU frequency driver (Sandybridge upwards)the CPU freq driverthe Intel PowerClamp driver It's worth mentioning that thermald applies various cooling methods only when the temperature reaches a certain threshold, so you may not notice a difference while using it if your laptop doesn't usually get very hot. Write a shell script to monitor CPU usage and send an e-mail. Write a shell script to monitor CPU usage and send an e-mail. Linux Shell script to list users in a system.

Build a Killer Customized Arch Linux Installation (and Learn All About Linux in the Process) Welcome to RoboLinux. Ohloh, the open source network. Linux. File transfer over sound card. Before I even start, a word of warning: Never try these programs with your headphones on.

THEY MAKE LOUD NOISES! It is possible to configure these programs to make noises way louder than you ever imagined your headphones could make. You can damage your hearing when playing with audio programming. Tinnitus isn't fun. This will be you if you don't take my warning seriously: Background and problem I have an old laptop laying about. Ah, I thought, and wrote a program that encoded data in sound. The basic protocol is trivial: For every character: For every bit: Send a short pulse if the bit is 1. This is nice and not very error prone. The crux isn't the signal generation (which is laughably trivial), it is the analysis on the receiving end; or rather dealing with the noise in the signal.

So, the second approach would be to use a Fourier transform, to select the part of the spectrum where our signal resides (400 Hz is what I chose). How to Install Ubuntu Linux on your PS3 - PS3 Articles.

It has been built on the top of SparkyLinux 3.2 “Annagerman” and it’s fully compatible with Debian “testing” Jessie. SparkyLinux “GameOver” is a special edition of our distro targeted to game players. “GameOver” 3.2 offerts : - access to games compiled for Linux platform - access to “popular” and “modern” games via Steam and Desura platforms - access to many games created for MS Windows platform via Wine and PlayOnLinux - New! – access to “old” games created for machines and systems (discontinued) via emulators Stronger ‘xz’ compression lets me shrink the iso image and put more stuff on it. Main page - SimpleScreenRecorder - Maarten Baert's website. Last modified: Thu, 13 Aug 2015Refresh What is SimpleScreenRecorder?

SimpleScreenRecorder is a Linux program that I've created to record programs and games. There were already a few programs that could do this, but I wasn't 100% happy with any of them, so I created my own. My original goal was to create a program that was just really simple to use, but as I was writing it I started adding more and more features, and the result is actually a pretty powerful program. PyGTK: Python GUI Programming. GTK is the Gnome desktop graphics library first developed for Gimp, the GNU Image Manipulation Program. The GTK libraries were packaged into a Python GUI library known as PyGTK. These libraries closely resemble the capabilities of the GTP "C" libraries.

Alternative GUI development libraries exist for Python including those based on VW_windows, Qt and the Tk tool kit. Python and PyGTK are typically native packages on Linux and are easily installed on MS/Windows as MSI installations. CGI Shell scripts. This tutorial covers the basics of using bash shell scripts for web server CGI. Default Red Hat Linux directory configurations for Apache are used in this tutorial. The HTML ISINDEX tag is used for data input to the script. CGI uses two methods to pass data between the browser and the web server, GET and POST. The GET method passes data in the URL and is the method employed here. The web server will pass environment variables into the execution environment of the CGI shell script which also may be used.

Kolibri Downloads. Booting from USB flash - KolibriOS wiki. 10 best alternative operating systems. Right now, someone, somewhere is developing the killer operating system feature of the future - a feature that will change computing and make us wonder how we lived without it. However, the person responsible probably isn't grafting away in the labs of Microsoft, Apple or Red Hat - he or she is more likely to be working in a bedroom or loft. Big companies can grow reticent to change, slow to move and adopt new technologies.

Features must be escalated through approval bodies, management and bean-counters. Hobbyist projects don't have those commercial pressures and can experiment freely. It might seem audacious to claim that the next Windows is cooking in some part-time coder's house, but it's nothing new. The most successful projects often begin life in ways we'd never expect, and it can take a while for their potential to be fully realised. Into the future We'll look at the best alternative operating systems, with the potential to change the computing landscape over the next decade.
