For those of you working with multiple machines (windows workstations or servers), here are a few useful switches to know when you are working w/ Remote Desktop:

For servers: /console is extremely useful if you use a standard and shared account w/ some of your colleagues

For workstations (and/or servers): /f, /v and /span are very useful based on your use (support vs actual work on the remote machines)

OpenGEU 8.10 aka Luna Serena

Submitted by phil on Sun, 04/05/2009 - 09:15

Having tried out elive, I looked for other linux distros using the Enlightenment window manager. And to my surprise, I ran into Luna Serena or OpenGEU.

The power and flexibility of Ubuntu and Gnome.
The magnificence and beauty of E17.
Perfect and fast even for a Virtual Machine.
Finally a fully functional Enlightenment Desktop.
OpenGEU: when a Gnome reaches Enlightenment.
