An extremly fast, lightweight, yet feature-rich

LXDE default file manager. This is a complete

SpliX is a set of CUPS printer drivers for SPL (Samsung Printer
Language) printers. Some Samsung, Xerox and Dell printers use that

VDE is a virtual network that can be spawned over a set of physical
computer over the Internet
VDE connects together:
(1) real GNU-linux boxes (tuntap)
(2) virtual machines: UML-User Mode Linux, qemu, bochs, MPS.
VDE can be used:
(i) to create a general purpose tunnel (every protocol that runs
on a Ethernet can be put into the tunnel)
(ii) to connect a set of virtual machine to the Internet with no
need of free access of tuntap
(iii) to support mobility: a VDE can stay interconnected despite
of the change of virtual cables, i.e. the change of IP addresses
and interface in the real world
XMMS2 is an audio framework, but it is not a general multimedia player - it
will not play videos. It has a modular framework and plugin architecture for
audio processing, visualisation and output, but this framework has not been
designed to support video. Also the client-server design of XMMS2 (and the
daemon being independent of any graphics output) practically prevents direct
video output being implemented. It has support for a wide range of audio
formats, which is expandable via plugins. It includes a basic CLI interface
to the XMMS2 framework, but most users will want to install a graphical XMMS2
client (such as gxmms2 or esperanza).
Beaver starts up fast and doesn't use a lot of memory.
Beaver's only dependency is GTK+2, so no need to install
other libraries eating your disk space. These things make
Beaver very suitable for old computers and use in small Linux distributions.
Galculator is a GTK 2 based calculator with ordinary notation/reverse
polish notation, a formula entry mode, different number bases

Leafpad is a simple GTK+ based text editor. The user interface is
similar to "notepad", and it aims to be lighter than GEdit and KWrite
and to be as useful as them.
Following features are intended...
- Minimum requirement: for portability
- Minimal menu item: to make full use of features and to learn easily
- No toolbar: to maximize area to view text
- Single document interface (SDI): to set out windows to view at a
time
- Character coding auto detection: to open file quickly without
multi-codeset problem
Leafpad is released under the GNU General Public License (GPL).

with some modifications added by LXAppearance developers to make it a
plugin.
