mkvtoolnix "Works great! and the GUI is highly recommended" |
mkvtoolnix-gui "Easy to use and very powerful." |
nautilus-gksu "Very useful" |
nautilus-open-terminal "Vital" |
gextractwinicons "AMAZING little app! Easily extracts icons from EXEs and DLLs. Read groups and individual icons, save in PNG and ICO, preserving all attributes in filename. VERY helpful" |
seahorse-plugins "Necessary for integration with Nautilus (you can Encrypt/Decrypt/Sign files using right-click!) Just remember to REBOOT for integration with Nautilus work! (maybe LOGOUT will do it)" |
seahorse "Really powerful! At first, I thought this was only a tool to manage Gnome's passwords... but you can actually do SO much more... create and edit SSH keys, OpenPGP keys (using GPG), Publsh to key servers, and even add a picture to your key! SO good! (and it gets better if you use the seahorse-plugins companion for nautilus)" |
libfile-mimeinfo-perl "Neat commands! MUCH more options than xdg equivalents" |
ghex "Simple, easy, efficient. Very nice app" |
assogiate "Intuitive, solid GUI, great documentation. Great features (lots of options to recognize a file pattern, mime parent and alias, etc). Its one of those must-have tools for configuring and customizing your desktop.. Should be default in any distro" |
system-config-samba "Very nice GUI! I wish all tools in Mint/Ubuntu have GUI like this" |
quicksynergy "Simply AMAZING! And MUCH better than its Windows counterpart. Easy and intuitive." |
gnome-network-admin ""Official" GUI tool to change computer name. Can change both /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts. Why this is not shipped as default anymore?" |
acetoneiso "THE best tool to convert to ISO, also to mount/extract some ISO" |
hedgewars "Amazing, and very well polished. Top-notch Worms clone." |
wine "Wine is absolutely awesome. I use it a lot for old, little Win apps. Does a remarkable job for large ones too! The more i use it, the more impressed i am by how good it is!" |
dosbox "A must for old gamerz" |
sensors-applet "By far the best sensor/temperature/monitoring gnome applet ive found. Detected 11 sensors out-of-the-box (4 voltage, 4 fans, 3 temps). GUI is powerful, flexible and very intuitive. Can customize icon, low/high and label for EACH sensor... great!" |
aisleriot "I LOVE it, specially BACKBONE variation! Really addictive! This is NOT like Solitaire: it has more than 80 card games, Solitaire being just ONE of them!" |
gnome-games "Aisleriot (Solitaire) is AWESOME, specially BACKBONE variant. Sudoku and Mines are also great" |
virtualbox-guest-additions "Essential companion for VirtualBox-OSE" |
virtualbox-ose "Its almost too good to be tue! It works frawlessly, TONS of options and features, and easy (and complete) GUI" |
