Backup? Fuggetaboutit!
Konserve is a small backup utility that lives in the KDE 3.x system tray, and it makes backups so easy, so automatic, that you'll probably forget all about it... until you desperately need that file you accidentally deleted.
Let's install Konserve and create a backup job to better understand the program.
If you use an APT-enabled distro, try apt-get install konserve. Otherwise, head over to http://konserve.sourceforge.net/download.html and grab the source code or a pre-compiled binary for SUSE, Debian, Mandrake, or Gentoo. Build the code (if necessary), install the application, and start the program from the K menu icon, or enter whereis konserve on the command line and run the binary that whereis finds. On Debian, the path is probably /usr/bin/konserve; on SUSE, it's likely to be /opt/kde3/bin/konserve. If a little red soup can labelled "K" appears in your system tray, Konserve is running (and will automatically start with any reboot, unless you close it first).

Samsung, Red Hat to Work on Linux Drivers for Future TechThe metaverse is expected to uproot system design as we know it, and Samsung is one of many hardware vendors re-imagining data center infrastructure in preparation for a parallel 3D world. Samsung is working on new memory technologies that provide faster bandwidth inside hardware for data to travel between CPUs, storage and other computing resources. The company also announced it was partnering with Red Hat to ensure these technologies have Linux compatibility. |
