The CRC32 module calculates CRC sums of 32 bit lenghts. It generates the same CRC values as ZMODEM, PKZIP, PICCHECK and many others.

Despite its name, this module is able to compute the checksum of files as well as strings.

Use epoll, sendfile, from Perl. Mostly Linux-only support now, but more syscalls/OSes planned for future.

Perlbal is a single-threaded event-based server supporting HTTP load balancing, web serving, and a mix of the two.

General ruby packages

Ruby is an interpreted scripting language for quick and easy
object-oriented programming. It has many features for processing text
files and performing system management tasks (as in Perl). It is
simple, straight-forward, and extensible.

* Ruby features:

- Simple Syntax

- *Normal* Object-Oriented features (class, method calls, for
example)

- *Advanced* Object-Oriented features(Mix-in, Singleton-method, for
example)

- Operator Overloading

- Exception Handling

- Iterators and Closures

- Garbage Collection

- Dynamic Loading of Object Files (on some architectures)

- Highly Portable (works on many UNIX machines; DOS, Windows, Mac,
BeOS, and more)

MSpec is a specialized framework that is syntax-compatible with RSpec for basic things like describe, it blocks and before, after actions. MSpec contains additional features that assist in writing the RubySpecs used by multiple Ruby implementations. Also, MSpec attempts to use the simplest Ruby language features so that beginning Ruby implementations can run it.

RubyGems is the Ruby standard for publishing and managing third party
libraries.

RubySpec is a community-driven project to create an executable specification (RSpec compatible) for the Ruby programming language, core libraries and standard libraries.

Again, as usual, nothing officially supported

Middleware to access a smart card using SCard API (PC/SC)

This package is based on the package 'opensc' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

OpenSC provides a set of libraries and utilities to access smart cards.
Its main focus is on cards that support cryptographic operations. It
facilitates their use in security applications such as mail encryption,
authentication, and digital signature. OpenSC implements the PKCS#11
API so applications supporting this API, such as Mozilla Firefox and
Thunderbird, can use it. OpenSC implements the PKCS#15 standard and
aims to be compatible with every software that does so, too.

This package is based on the package 'openssh' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

SSH (Secure Shell) is a program for logging into and executing commands
on a remote machine. It is intended to replace rlogin and rsh and
provides secure encrypted communication between two untrusted hosts
over an insecure network. X Window System connections and arbitrary
TCP/IP ports can also be forwarded over the secure channel.

This package is based on the package 'pcsc-ccid' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

This package provides the source code for a generic USB CCID
(Chip/Smart Card Interface Devices) driver. See [1] for the USB CCID
specifications from the USB working group.

This package contains a generic USB CCID (Chip/Smart Card Interface
Devices) driver, as well as a driver for the GemPC Twin serial reader.

These drivers are meant to be used with the PCSC-Lite daemon from the
pcsc-lite package.

This package is based on the package 'pcsc-lite' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

The purpose of PCSC Lite is to provide a Windows(R) SCard interface in
a very small form factor for communicating with smart cards and
readers. PCSC Lite can be compiled directly for a desired reader driver
or can be used to dynamically allocate/deallocate reader drivers at
runtime (the default behavior).

PCSC Lite uses the same winscard API as used in Windows(R).

Security aware people should read the SECURITY file for possible
vulnerabilities to pcsclite, how you can fix them, and how some will be
fixed.

For information on how to install drivers please read the DRIVERS file.

Memory cards will be supported through the MCT specifications, which is
an APDU like manner sent normally through the SCardTransmit() function.
This functionality is done in the driver.

These packages are not supported, or guaranteed even to work

This package is based on the package 'alsa' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

ALSA stands for Advanced Linux Sound Architecture. It supports many
PCI and ISA PnP sound cards.

This package contains the standard ALSA library, utilities, and init
scripts to start the sound system on your Linux box. To set it up, run
yast2 or alsaconf. They detect ALSA-supported PCI and ISA PnP cards.

This package is based on the package 'alsa-firmware' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

Various firmware data files for ALSA drivers.

This package is based on the package 'alsa-oss' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

This package contains the wrapper library and script to run OSS
applications using ALSA API.

This package is based on the package 'alsa-plugins' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

This package contains the extra plug-ins for the ALSA library.

This package is based on the package 'alsa-tools' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

Various tools for ALSA including DSP loaders.

This package is based on the package 'alsa-utils' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

This package contains utility programs supporting ALSA, Advanced Linux
Sound Architecture.

This package is based on the package 'esound' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

A multiplexing and caching sound daemon. It can use ALSA or OSS for
sound output. Many projects, including Enlightenment and GNOME, use
esound to play and record their sounds.

This package is based on the package 'fdupes' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

FDUPES is a program for identifying or deleting duplicate files
residing within specified directories

This package is based on the package 'fxload' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

This program can download firmware into FX and FX2 EZ-USB devices as
well as the original AnchorChips EZ-USB. It is intended to be invoked
by hotplug scripts when the unprogrammed device appears on the bus.

Primarily as an aid for developers, this can also be used to update
firmware on devices that boot from I2C serial EEPROMs. For that use,
as well as downloading firmware to all other off-chip memory, a second
stage loader must first be downloaded.

Provides implementations for atomic memory update operations on a
number of architectures. This allows direct use of these in reasonably
portable code. Unlike earlier similar packages, this one explicitly
considers memory barrier semantics, and allows the construction of code
that involves minimum overhead across a variety of architectures.
