Source: Freshmeat Daily News LoggedFS is a a fuse-filesystem in which it's possible to log every single operation in syslog. With this, one can see every read, write, open, chmod, etc. operation on a filesystem. Since it is fuse-based, you don't need to change anything in your kernel or hard disk partition to use it. The configuration file allows you to choose for which types of file you would like to log operations. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes: There's a new configuration file in XML, which allows you to be more precise on what you want to log and what you don't want to to log.
Source: Freshmeat Daily News Common Configuration Parser (CCP) is a program that reads configuration files and upgrades them. It takes an oldfile (typically the configuration file currently in use) and a newfile (typically the default new configuration file) and optionally a template (a file that describes how the generated configuration file should look) and merges the files into one, creating a new configuration file that has the changes made to the old file in addition to the new options included in the new file. It is completely independent of the program that created the configuration file, and can be used for many different purposes such as merging changes between an old user-edited configuration file and a .rpmnew file generated by RPM during upgrades. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes: Now only strips comments in the beginning of lines (fixes bug #15364). The use of keys with special characters (such as []) in them has been fixed. No longer defines the package CCP. Now reacts to the CCP_VERBOSE and CCP_VERYVERBOSE environment variables.
Source: Freshmeat Daily News Impact is a finite element program for simulation of dynamic events such as car crashes or other large deformation events. It is kept very simple to make it intuitive to use and easy to change and extend. The program includes a NURBS based pre-processor for modelling, a solver with editor, a post-processor, and a graph plotter for results viewing. Impact also interfaces with several other programs, such as Nastran and Gmsh. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes: This release contains a range of bugfixes and optimizations. Selection is now multitudes faster since the tree does not expand automatically. The boundary button now supplies all boundary curves on a surface. Delaunay triangulation mesh of surfaces is slightly improved. Objects selected in the tree can easily be erased with the delete button. Clearer visual of selected objects. Triangle surfaces are now possible, including rotated surfaces. A reversed direction option when creating some of the surfaces was added.
Source: Freshmeat Daily News TDE (Techisa Desktop Environment) is a lightweight alternative desktop environment developed using Qt. The project's goal is to provide users with a comfortable environment using as few resources as possible. Only a Brazillian Portuguese translation is currently available. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes: Better support for KDE desktop files. Improved recognition of KDM/GDM sessions. New icon search paths. Enhancements to the TDE menu. Better handling of links and properties. TDESU shows correct error codes. Thumbnails. A tree view in the file browser. tdeopen accepts new parameters: [file name] directly executes a file or associated application, and -f [source] [destination] shows a popup allowing user to copy, move, or link.
Source: Freshmeat Daily News The main purpose of LoFiMo is, as the name states, to monitor log files. It does this in real time, i.e. shows the contents of log files as they are changing. The user can connect to LoFiMo with a Web browser or use the console for plain text output. When using a Web browser, the output can be formatted with cascading stylesheets, which the user can define. Thus, it is possible to highlight certain log entries with different colors and fonts. It is also possible to play sounds or execute commands (send an email, play sound with a custom player, etc.) when a log entry matches a filter. LoFiMo can parse Apache style log files and syslog style log files. Among others, there are filters that can parse iptables logs and merge multiple log lines of Postfix into a single one. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes: This release adds some documentation, fixes a bug in Postfix log processing, and adds the ability to filter Postfix log entries by status (e.g. to highlight bounced and deferred email).
Source: Freshmeat Daily News Webminstats is a Webmin module designed to store system information in an rrdtool database and to display historic (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, and custom) graphs. It is modular in design, so as to be able to log everything from CPU usage to email box size. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes: A new display system was added, which allows you to split parameters on several graphs. This can help when you have parameters with many different ranges, or too many parameters on a module. A new module was added to monitor the UPS.
Source: Freshmeat Daily News SnortSMS is a highly configurable sensor management system that provides the ability to remotely administer Snort [and Barnyard] based Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), push configuration files, add/edit rules, and monitor system health and statistics, all from a simple and clean Web interface console. Whether you have one or multiple Snort sensors, it can help unify and syncronize all sensor configurations. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes: The interface layout has been updated. There are code fixes (a rule import bug) and code clean-up.
Source: Freshmeat Daily News KTechlab is an IDE for electronic circuits and microcontrollers. It can perform simulation of a variety of components (logic, integrated, linear, nonlinear, and reactive), simulation and debugging of PIC microcontrollers via gpsim, and comes with its own closely-linked and complementary high level languages: FlowCode and Microbe. It has been designed to be as easy to use and unintrusive as possible; all components and FlowParts have context sensitive help, and simulating electronics is as simple as dragging components onto the work area and creating connectors that autoroute themselves between their pins. FlowCode allows users new to PICs to instantly create their own programs, while the electronic simulation allows stepping through a PIC's assembly program inside a circuit. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes: Simulation support for transistors, inductors, and op-amps. Translations into French, Italian, and Spanish. Support for SDCC, a C compiler that supports PICs. Programming of PICs. High-level-language debugging (C and Microbe). Symbol inspection in the debugger, including mouse-over tooltip display. Voltage and current probes for the oscilloscope.

Source: Freshmeat Daily News GObject Builder (GOB) is a simple preprocessor for easily creating GObjects (glib objects). It reads a class description file with inline C code and produces .c and .h object files for you. It allows you to easily use most of the features of the GObject system and avoids typos by reducing the amount of code needed. In general, the amount of code is about the same as for OO languages such as Java or C++, but you still have to only use C and you get all the power of the GObject system. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes: A major segfault has been fixed.
Source: Freshmeat Daily News GirlyAero is based on the theme pack Aero, modified to have a feminine feel, with pastel accents, while still retaining the dark reverse Aqua-style feel that the original has. It is not dependent on the original Aero theme. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes: The symlinks in the IceWM theme have been fixed so that the maximise and minimise buttons show up correctly and reliably.
