3G woes: maybe NetworkManager isn't that bad?
,----[ Quote ]
| I won't talk here about the awful user
| interfaces (supplied by the carriers and you
| must use them) which make your eyes hurt, brain
| explode and usability die (compared with them
| NetworkManager is a breeze). My problem here is
| with making them both work together on the same
| computer, which on Linux is natural: you add
| the connections in NM (with a wizard) and just
| select whatever you want from a menu.

Five tips for a more efficient Linux desktop
,----[ Quote ]
| For me, the Linux desktop is all about being
| efficient. Yes, I do enjoy the eye candy as
| well. But having an incredibly efficient
| desktop just makes for much faster, more
| reliable work. And much to the surprise of
| most users, Linux should be hailed as the
| king of desktop efficiency. There are many
| ways to have an efficient desktop in Linux,
| but I have narrowed the list down to these
| five tips. Even if you employ only a couple
| of these techniques, your desktop experience
| will become far more efficient.

| One of the essential ingredients to running a successful business is

Be a Productive Linux User
,----[ Quote ]
| Use Terminator: Terminator is a nice way to free your valuable screen space
| from multiple terminal windows. Instead of using one terminal window for each
| task, divide an existing window horizontally or vertically each time you need
| a new terminal window. So if you find yourself using 8 terminal windows, you
| can use Terminator and pack your terminals into 2 windows.

Be super-productive with Linux

| It might sound a bit weird but the kind of Operating System youâre probably

| responsible entity when it comes to productivity, but somewhere
| down-the-line, we can hold your operating system responsible for the same.

Why Open Source contributes to productivity
,----[ Quote ]
| Open source software has become quite popular lately and I think itâs awesome
| that free software like Amarok, Open Office, GIMP and so on, are becoming so
| good that they not only rival their paid counterparts, but surpass them in
| many ways.

Kubuntu days...productive days
,----[ Quote ]
| So, what is the point? It is that, for non technical users, as I am, Kubuntu
| have reached a point where I'm able to do with linux everything I used to be
| able to do in windows, install it, make partitions, configure a network,
| install apps, share printers and directories, configure wifi devices, create
| users, etc. very easily. In fact, I can do more things now that I could in
| windows.
|
| We can improve a lot though, but it has been a confirmation of what I already
| knew (we all know). With linux I'm more productive, even in tedious actions
| like the ones I've done these days.

Switching from KDE to WinXP #2
,----[ Quote ]
| Conclusion
|
| I have looked at several features that KDE?s Konqueror has but that
| WinXP's Explorer doesn't have. I have also mentioned a few of the
| things I don't like about Explorer and often why I think Konqueror's way of
| doing it is better. You may have noticed that there is nothing positive
| about Explorer. That is true and it is not for lack of trying. The fact is,
| for me, the way I work, there is just nothing special about Explorer. I
| didn't find any feature that struck me as being especially cool or useful
| that Konqueror didn?t also have.
|
| Switching from KDE to WindowsXP at work has seriously impaired my
| productivity.
