GNOME,
HOWTO,
Tips N Tricks While updating Wired HowTo Guide Linux Style I came across G-Script which is a collection of scripts for use in Gnome’s Nautilus file manager.
And as things go I was searching for a way to add shred to the context-menu of Nautilus just like you can with Thunar plug-ins and ended up finding a new toy to tinker with.
A nautilus script is just an executable shell script (usually bash) that is placed in a special scripts directory so that the Nautilus graphical shell can find it. This is a really neat function of Nautilus, because it allows you to extend the functionality of the file browser to do just about anything. ~ G-Script FAQ

Anything that requires software is demonstrated for either Mac or Windows. How hip and cutting edge can a digital technology rag be if they aren’t even mentioning Linux? For gods sakes my Mother-in-Law can use Xubuntu!!

HOWTO,
Tips N Tricks While I’m at work I use Windows. While I’m at home I use Linux.
While I’m at work I’m usually working. While I’m at home I’m usually working on my next Linux or Programming HOWTO.
Well it’s been a slow copule of weeks at work and I don’t very work to do that is urgent and I’d really like to crank out some Linux howto’s but it’s kind of hard to do on a Windows PC.
Then I discovered Microsoft’s VirtualPC 2004 which is FREE and now I’m posting this from Firefox running on Xubuntu via VirtualPC.
So if or when you’re stuck on a Windows PC and you want to run a Linux LiveCD this article’s for you.

HOWTO,
ScreencastAug 11 2006 - UPDATE
THIS TUTORIAL IS NOT COMPLETE.
It was published by accident via technotati scanning the site.
But for some reason http://screencasting.de has linked to this howto and is driving a fair bit of traffic here. So somebody is finding it useful.
Over the past few months I keep seeing tutorials and howto’s on varying tech subject distributed via screencasts. If done properly I think screencats are very useful. On the other hand I have seen a few that were toture to watch. With broad-band, cheap memory and cheap storage it seems that ‘casting is the next small big thing. I also could have missed the boat and ‘casting could be like so last month.
Anyway after doing some reasearch into the subject of ‘casting on Linux I found Wink, Tutorial and Presentation creation software. Wink is Freeware (not OSS), cross-platform (it has a Windows Client as well), it has audio recording, it outputs to Flash and Standalone EXE and a few other formats, and it entirly GUI driven.

I found this on Ubuntu Wiki:
RadeonDriverHowto: This guide will show you how to use the Free, Open Source driver for many ATI graphics cards called “radeon”. It is similar to the “ati” driver and provides 2D functionality. 3D acceleration is enabled using the drivers from the DRI project such as: r200, r100, r128.
