Hoje estreia este filme em Portugal, sobe o nome de “O Terceiro Passo”. E pelas imagens que vi parece-me um bom filme, um que quero ir ver :)

Compiz vs Beryl

Beryl is getting famous, but no one is talking about Compiz were it all “started” .

Beryl and Compiz are two “compositing window managers” for the X Window System that are able to take advantage of OpenGL-acceleration. They bring some of the features found in competitors like Mac OS.

Compiz was released by Novell, and is known to be more stable, light and practical than Beryl. I also think the same. I’ve tested both and my machine ( Centrino 1.6, 512 ram, ATI 9200 64 Mb with Radeon driver ) and its faster with Compiz than Beryl (in the actual time with Compiz 0.3.4 and Beryl 0.1.3).

Beryl is the new name of the Project Quinnstorm, a branch of Compiz. It’s developing quickly and has mutch more plugins that Compiz. Its just a matter of time and pacience for the final final in february and see the result.

Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn is going to have Beryl by default so we expect something fast and great :D

Free Software

Lets get started.

I’ve decided to start with some software I use in Ubuntu, and i would like to share with you.

Mozilla Firefox 2.0 or Epiphany

2 fast and light web browsers, but Epiphany is even more light that firefox. Its a good solution for those who what to speed up thinks.
Mozilla Thunderbird 2

Using Thunderbird 2 Beta 1

I prefer this email client to Evolution because i can separate each account to they’re own folders ( Inbox, sent, draft, etc ), if its possible in evolution i never discovered it.

The other reason i use it, is because i also use Windows for some stuff and so, i can share the profile with the Thunderbird in Windows.

FileZilla

Using FileZilla 3 beta 4.

Ftp Client/Server simples, nice interface. I prefer it to gFTP.

Beta 2 is available in Trevinos repositorys or you can download the pre-compiled tar.gz at the projects page.

For you Windows Users, Firefox, Thunderbird and FileZilla are also available for windows.
