Die letzten drei Monate lang habe ich im Rahmen des Sommer-Spezials 2010 von http://www.linux-community.de/ als einer von zehn Teilnehmern kurze Blogbeiträge zu GIMP und anderer freier Bildbearbeitungs- und Grafiksoftware verfasst. Das Ergebnis kann auf der Linux-Community online gelesen werden, meine Beiträge können auch hier gesammelt als PDF-heruntergeladen werden:

One way to trigger actions at an OpenSSH server login, is to use the sshrc file in your sshd configuration folder, usually /etc/ssh.
Use the following command in the sshrc file to send a mail:
mailx -s "$HOSTNAME Remote Login from $USER at `date`" mail@example.com
Of course every other command or notification method can be used too, ...

First of all, if you don't want to install the driver manually, search the openSUSE repositories for it, perhaps it is available by now, as of writing this (2010-07-18) it wasn't.
If you decide to do it manually, here is how it worked for me:
Download driver from http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index5.aspx. The downloaded file is named something like ...

I tried to enabled the default VNC server in openSUSE via YaST - Network Services - Remote Administration (VNC), but whenever I connected to the host via the OS X VNC Client JollyFastVNC, all I got was a black screen.
I double checked firewall and VNC server settings but everything seemed to be configured correctly. ...

Problem:
You have a text file with a link to a file in each line.
Your file linklist.txt may look like this although of course the links don't have to point to the same host, same document type or similar named files.

One fast way to generate grayscale images named *.grayscale.png from multiple *.png images with ImageMagick is to use the zsh command for i (*.png) convert -colorspace Gray $i ${i%.*}.grayscale.png. If you want to override the existing images use for i (*.png) convert -colorspace Gray $i $i instead.
The zsh option short_loops has to be set ...

If you have problems loading Java (not JavaScript) powered Websites in Ubuntu 10.04 try to switch to another implementation.
At first you have to install the Java Flavors you would like to test. If you have no clue which one to try, Suns own implementation is probably a good starting point. Install it with apt-get ...

Viele Benutzer, die bestimmte Aufgaben des täglichen Computeralltags auf der Kommandozeile erledigen oder erledigen müssen, setzen dabei aus gutem Grund auf die Z-Shell.
