Access Linux Platform

Posted on Saturday, February 17th, 2007

From the Linux and Open Source Blog:

Access is finally shipping its next-generation Linux-based operating system and development kit for mobile devices. The company is showing off version 1.0 of Access Linux Platform (ALP). According to Access co-founder and CTO Tomihisa Kamada, �The ACCESS Linux Platform software has been designed from day one specifically for mobile phones and converged devices. We believe this approach has enabled us to deliver an integrated, commercial-grade Linux-based platform that is optimized to provide true flexibility, openness, and customizability.

I think this looks pretty cool, and I can’t wait for some phones to enter the market running this!

Here’s a video of it in action:

I’m really getting sick of those default Windows Movie Maker titles though…

Frozen Bubble 2.0.0 Is Out

Posted on Saturday, October 28th, 2006

One of the most addictive Linux games, Frozen Bubble, just got updated to version 2.0.0. The new version brings you a new single player game mode (multi player training), network (LAN, Internet) game mode (up to 5 players), fully revamped graphics, full joystick support, recording and playback of all games with non-predefined levels and more.

This was one of the first games I played on Linux (On a Knoppix live CD), and I still love it!

SUSE Linux 10.1 “Remastered” available

Posted on Monday, October 16th, 2006

A “remastered” edition of SuSE Linux has been recently released.

“This release combines the 10.1 GM and all online updates that we have released for 10.1 so far, including libzypp, which should make the installing and working experience much smoother for everyone.”

Sounds good! I’ll probably install this if I build myself a new computer.
