Welcome to LinuxUser!


This is a special section dedicated to presenting useful and interesting software that helps in our daily work with Linux on the desktop. Here you will learn how to use standard software more efficiently, gain valuable background knowledge, and discover exciting new software packages.

KTools: KHotKeys74
KHotkeys lets you type a single key instead of a long command. You can even configure your system to respond with a complex operation at the wave of a mouse.
DeskTOPia: SuxPanel78
The major desktops like KDE and Gnome include a panel by default, but users with simpler environments may need a way to organize applications on the desktop. SuxPanel is a handy and versatile panel tool.
Display Managers KDM and GDM80
The display manager is the first GUI you'll see when you log in. KDM and GDM are the managers of choice for KDE and Gnome, but the display manager is remarkably independent of the desktop. You'll learn how to configure a display manager in Linux.
Command Line: Audio Formats83
You don't need a GUI to convert audio files. We'll show you how you can grab tracks from audio CDs and convert sound files to other formats, all from the command line.
