| desktop-file-utils 0.11 | GPL | Utilities for working with desktop entries |
| desktop-file-utils contains a couple of command line utilities for working with desktop entries. It requires GLib and popt to compile, because the implementation requires Unicode utilities and such. Right now the only documentation is "desktop-file-install --help". desktop-file-validate takes a single argument, the file to validate. | ||

| fluxbox 0.9.15.1 | MIT | Windowmanager based on the original blackbox-code |
| Fluxbox is yet another windowmanager for X. It's a fork from the origi- nal blackbox-0.61.1 code. Fluxbox looks like blackbox and handles styles, colors, window placement and similar thing exactly like black- box. So what's the difference between fluxbox and blackbox then? The answer is: LOTS! Have a look at the homepage for more info ;) | ||

| shared-mime-info 0.19 | GPL | Shared MIME-Info Specification |
| This is the freedesktop.org shared MIME info database. Many programs and desktops use the MIME system to represent the types of files. Frequently, it is necessary to work out the correct MIME type for a file. This is generally done by examining the file's name or contents, and looking up the correct MIME type in a database. For interoperability, it is useful for different programs to use the same database so that different programs agree on the type of a file, and new rules for determining the type apply to all programs. This specification attempts to unify the type-guessing systems currently in use by GNOME, KDE and ROX. Only the name-to-type and contents-to-type mappings are covered by this spec; other MIME type information, such as the default handler for a particular type, or the icon to use to display it in a file manager, are not covered since these are a matter of style. In addition, freedesktop.org provides a shared database in this format to avoid inconsistencies between desktops. This database has been created by converting the existing KDE and GNOME databases to the new format and merging them together. | ||
| xlockmore 5.22 | MIT | An X terminal locking program |

Xlockmore runs a provided screensaver until you type in your password. Install the xlockmore package if you need a locking program to secure X sessions. | ||
Linux reseller Bryce Coad had audiences eating out of his hand as he demonstrated the operating system running OpenOffice.org [. . .] Igor Portugal, technical head at Linux reseller Asterisk, which made its first appearance at the show in 1999, says Orix, Linfox Logistics, the Health and Disability Commission and Vita New Zealand are among its customers. Portugal collected a wad of business cards from visitors to his stand, many of which he expected to turn into sales. — ComputerWorld Expo 2002
