Features at a glance

The application features painting tools with brushes and colors, support for layers and channels, gradients, airbrush, erase tool, simple geometric forms, undo and redo support, zoom, color selections, as well as many filters. In addition, it allows users to create brushes from squares and circles, load and save images in the app’s native file format, add, merge, reorder and remove layers, or to load GIMP brushes, pipe brushes, patterns and gradients.

The program also allows users to use patterns and colours for filling the background, import and export images in any other format that is supported by the ImageMagick program, create layers with transparency, use RGB(A), gray(A) and color models, use high-quality scaling, and much more.

Run Tor Browser 5.5.5 to Access Deep Web Using Ubuntu 16.04 ‘Xenial Xerus’ LTS’


What are the Deep Web ?

The deep web, deep net, invisible web, or hidden web are parts of the World Wide Web whose contents are not indexed by standard search engines for any reason. The deep web is opposite to the surface web.

The deep web includes many very common uses such as web mail, online banking but also paid for services with a paywall such as video on demand, and many more.


If you’re into computer security at all you may have heard of terms like “Deep Web” and “Dark Web”. The terms can be confusing so here are the basics:

The Internet: This is the easy one. It’s the common Internet everyone uses to read news, visit Facebook, and shop. Just consider this the “regular” Internet.

The Deep Web: The deep web is a subset of the Internet that is not indexed by the major search engines. This means that you have to visit those places directly instead of being able to search for them. So there aren’t directions to get there, but they’re waiting if you have an address. The Deep Web is largely there simply because the Internet is too large for search engines to cover completely. So the Deep Web is the long tail of what’s left out.

The Dark Web: The Dark Web (also called Darknet) is a subset of the Deep Web that is not only not indexed, but that also requires something special to be able to access it, e.g., specific proxying software or authentication to gain access. The Dark Web often sits on top of additional sub-networks, such as Tor, I2P, and Freenet, and is often associated with criminal activity of various degrees, including buying and selling drugs, pornography, gambling, etc. While the Dark Web is definitely used for those things more than the standard Internet or the Deep Web, there are many legitimate uses for the Dark Web as well.

Tor Browser Bundle is a free and platform-independent application designed to allow users to browser the Web anonymously through the powerful Tor network on the Linux, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X operating systems, without the need to use any third-party software.



Features at a glance
It is a portable software, allowing users to use directly from a USB flash drive, running a pre-configured web browser to protect their anonymity. The Tor software is the key component of Tor Browser Bundle, protecting users by bouncing their communications around a distributed network of relays, which are run by volunteers all around the world.

What New in version 5.5.5 :

  • Update Firefox to 38.8.0esr
  • Update Tor Launcher to 0.2.7.9 (Bug 10534: Don’t advertise the help desk directly anymore, translation updates)
  • Update HTTPS-Everywhere to 5.1.6
  • Update NoScript to 2.9.0.11
  • Bug 18726: Add new default obfs4 bridge (GreenBelt)

Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) Daily Build is Available Now For Download (Testing)


source : itfoss.com

“Yakkety Yak” is the code name for Ubuntu 16.10, scheduled for release October 2016. Yes, we’re talking about Ubuntu 16.10, which has been dubbed “Yakkety Yak” by Canonical founder Mark Shuttleworth on the day the company launched their sixth LTS (Long Term Support) release, Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus).

We’ve covered the entire development cycle of the Ubuntu 16.04 LTS operating system, and we’re planning on covering the one of the upcoming Ubuntu 16.10 OS too, keeping you guys informed of the new features that are about to be implemented as they’re revealed.

We took a quick look under the hood of the first 64-bit daily build Live ISO image of Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) to tell you what’s new, but there’s nothing new to report because it includes the same components that are available in the Ubuntu 16.04 ISOs.

We’ve already told you earlier that the Ubuntu developers have already put together a draft release schedule for Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak), and it looks like the distro will be officially released on October 20, 2022


WHAT NOW?

Update / Upgrade to Linux kernel 4.5.2 on Ubuntu / Linux Mint Derivative System

Update / Update to Linux kernel 4.5.2 on Ubuntu / Linux Mint Derivative System

 Linux kernel 4.5.2 is released, Available for Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial Xerus, Ubuntu 15.10 wily werewolf, Ubuntu 15.04 vivid Vervet, ubuntu 14.10 Utopic Unicorn, Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr (LTS), Linux Mint 17.1, Linux Mint 17.2, Linux Mint 17.3 and other Ubuntu derivative systems
Linux kernel is the essential part of any Linux operating system. It is responsible for resource allocation, low-level hardware interfaces, security, simple communications, basic file system management, and more. Written from scratch by Linus Torvalds (with help from various developers), Linux is a clone of the UNIX operating system. It is geared towards POSIX and Single UNIX Specification compliances.

Linux kernel 4.5.2 is the second maintenance build for the latest and most advanced kernel branch, which more and more GNU/Linux operating system are adopting lately, including the popular openSUSE Tumbleweed and Arch Linux rolling distributions.

Includes powerful features

Linux provides users with powerful features, such as true multitasking, multistack networking, shared copy-on-write executables, shared libraries, demand loading, virtual memory, and proper memory management.

Initially designed only for 386/486-based computers, now Linux supports a wide range of architectures, including 64-bit (IA64, AMD64), ARM, ARM64, DEC Alpha, MIPS, SUN Sparc, PowerPC, as well as Amiga and Atari machines.

What’s new in Linux kernel 4.5.2

Looking at the appended shortlog, Linux kernel 4.5.2 adds minor improvements to the Btrfs, OverlayFS, NFS, and EXT4 filesystems, as well as to the ARM, ARM64 (AArch64), MIPS, PA-RISC, PowerPC (PPC), s390, and x86 architectures. Core kernel, crypto, and sound changes are also present.

Moreover, the networking stack received various enhancements as well, in particular for things like IPv6, IPv4, DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture), Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP), Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP), the mac80211 framework, Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), and the XFRM IP framework.

As with any new maintenance release of a Linux kernel, numerous drivers have been updated, and Linux kernel 4.5.2 includes improvements for GPIO (general-purpose input/output), the AMDGPU open-source video driver, HID, iiO, hwmon, IOMMU, MMC, networking (mostly Ethernet), NVDIMM, PCMCIA, PINCTRL, SCSI, USB, Virtio, and Xen.

Install Google Chrome 50 on Ubuntu 16.04 ‘Xenial Xerus’ LTS (Amd64)



Google Chrome, or Chrome, is a web browser software that tries to compete with major players, such as Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, and even the Opera web browser. It is available for the Linux, Android, iOS, Microsoft Windows, and Mac OS X operating systems.

Ubuntu 16.10 Will be Codenamed “Yakkety Yak”



After Ubuntu 16.04 released, will release its latest version 16.10 will be called ‘Yakkety Yak’.

With Ubuntu 16.04 shipping today, attention by Canonical and Ubuntu developers is quickly turning to the next six-month installment, Ubuntu 16.10. Normally Mark reveals the next Ubuntu codename in a lengthy blog post highlighting the plans for the next six months of development, how the codename relates to their next release’s focus, etc.

But this evening Mark posted just a very short blog post where at first I wasn’t sure if he was serious or not about the Ubuntu 16.10 codename. For 16.10, whose codename starts with ‘Y’,

Shuttleworth has ditched the dictionary to deliver a far snappier soliloquy:

Yakkety yakkety yakkety yakkety yakkety yakkety yakkety yakkety yak. Naturally


The development codename of an Ubuntu release takes the form “Adjective Animal”. Initially these weren’t in alphabetic order – until Dapper DRAKE (6.06).
Up next: Ubuntu 17.04 Z Z. Will it be “Zooming Zebra” :)? Or maybe Zealous Zorse? We’ll find out in 6 months!

Ubuntu Release Issue


How to : Install Unity 8 Desktop on Ubuntu 16.04 ‘Xenial Xerus’ LTS

The Unity 8 Desktop Preview is the new Unity 8 desktop shell running on the Mir display technology. It’s called a preview, because it’s a pre-release view of technology and designs that are not yet ready for general consumption as a full desktop experience. It’s there for developers, and anyone else who is interested, to test and review how the Unity 8 stack works in the desktop experience with an eye to full Ubuntu convergence.

Unity 8 uses Mir display technology. Proprietary video drivers do not yet offer the required level of support for Mir, so your experience if you’re using the binary block nVidia or AMD drivers will be somewhat disappointing. 


Unity 8 Desktop Preview :


Unity 8 still won’t be the default in Ubuntu 15.10 though. When Ubuntu 16.04 LTS arrives next April, there will likely be two “stable” system images to choose from: One with Unity 7 and the old X.org server, and one with Unity 8 and the new Mir server.

With a lot of work, Unity 8 could be ready to provide a solid convergence experience on an Ubuntu phone later this year. But average Ubuntu users won’t be using Unity 8 until at least Ubuntu 16.04 a year from now. It’s also unclear how many users will opt for the new Unity 8 desktop and how many will stick with the tried-and-true Unity 7 desktop.

Scopes :

How to : Install Unity 8 Desktop on Ubuntu 16.04 ‘Xenial Xerus’ LTS

Installing the latest Unity 8 user interface on the daily build version of Ubuntu 15.10 or Ubuntu 16.04 LTS is as easy as pie. Before anything else, please note that, at the moment, the operating system is using the Unity 7 interface available in all supported Ubuntu OSes.
