Linux Voice Introduction
Linux Voice Introduction
This month in Linux Voice.
Everyone is happier when things are tidy – even your computer. But most of us are not especially happy about the business of doing the tidying. If we could line up a smart vacuum or a robot feather duster to do the work, a great many of us would be very pleased to focus on other tasks.
The inside of your computer doesn't get cluttered like your garage or your medicine cabinet, but it does collect its own kind of clutter: logs, cached data, temporary files, crash reports. Part of clutter might be system services that still start up when you boot your computer even though you've forgotten why. In this month's Linux Voice we look at Stacer, an easy-to-use tool that will help you tidy up your Linux system. Also inside, we introduce you to a Linux tool that will track your investment portfolio and show you how to create a presentation in Inkscape using the JessyInk add-on.
