Banshee Music Player Sees First Release In 12 Months
================================================================================
Like the follow up to a debut album, fans of Banshee music player have had a long wait for a new release 12 months, in fact.
But the development rockstars behind the Mono-based media app havent been idle in that time.
The [release of Banshee 2.9.0][1], the first development milestone on the road to the next stable release (Banshee 3.0, fact fans), fixes 36 bugs, sees the app ported to GTK3 (not an easy undertaking by any stretch) and adds music sync for devices running Symbian.
*All 3 N95 owners will be pleased. *
Other improvements include:
- Support for GNOME Software Store listing
- Quicker submission of successful Scrobbles
- .amr file import
- More Accurate Seek
- Keywords for Unity & GNOME Shell search
- DAP Sources now remembered between sessions
The timing of this release couldnt be better. I highlighted Banshee [in a post on music players that support album art browsing last week][2].
**Getting Banshee 2.9.0**
So far theres no word on when this latest release will be available on Ubuntu.
But, if you like to be prepared, you can add the Banshee Team PPA. This should, at some point in the not-so-distant future, be updated with the latest version of Banshee and any updated dependencies required for it to run.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:banshee-team/ppa
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install banshee
Once installation has completed Banshee can be launched from the Unity Dash, GNOME Shell activities overlay, or Mint Menu.

First Look at GNOME 3.10 on Arch Linux
================================================================================
**After approximately two weeks of testing, the Arch Linux developers promoted earlier today, October 7, the recent GNOME 3.10 desktop environment to the stable channels, allowing users to upgrade their six-month-old GNOME 3.8 installation.**
I am one of those users, and I am extremely happy to get a pure GNOME 3.10 experience on my Arch Linux machine. I'm also proud to say that the desktop environment runs very well, and looks good, just as expected.
I want to remind everyone that the GNOME 3.10 desktop environment has been officially announced by the GNOME Project on September 25, 2013, and that it introduces several new applications that I'm excited to test these days.
If you're using Arch Linux and GNOME as your main desktop environment, then you can upgrade your GNOME installation to version 3.10 right now, using the sudo pacman -Syu command in a terminal. Don't forget to restart your computer for the changes to be applied.
This is also one of the biggest updates I've done since I use the Arch Linux operating system, with a total download size of approximately 300 MiB and a total installed size of 1.1 GB.

As you can see from the screenshot above, and as expected from our previous reports about the new features and functionality included in the GNOME 3.10 desktop environment, I can tell you that it runs and feels very good.
After I've restarted my machine, I've quickly noticed a new effect for the login manager, as well as the new unified system status area (which looks amazing and it's very handy), and a new wheel-like button next to the Login button, from where you can change the desktop environment if you have more than one.
I have to admit that after the desktop has been loaded, I was a little disappointed as my installed GNOME extensions were not working, which I use to beautify the GNOME desktop environment. At first, I thought that they were disabled by the upgrade process, but after a little bit of research I've realized that none of them was compatible with GNOME 3.10.
Therefore, I've pointed my Firefox web browser to the GNOME Extensions website, where I was able to upgrade some of them (the most important ones) and beautify my GNOME 3.10 desktop with third-party themes.
As for [the new applications brought by GNOME 3.10][1], none of them was installed with the upgrade. I had to manually install them from the default Arch Linux software repository. Unfortunately, the [GNOME Software application does not exist][2]. Maybe it will be added in the next days.

![](http://i1-news.softpedia-static.com/images/extra/LINUX/large/gnome310arch-large_006.jpg)
Another interesting thing I've noticed is that I have a new "Open Terminal" function when I right click on the desktop, which really comes in handy if you work a lot with the Terminal app like I do.
How's your GNOME 3.10 experience so far?

================================================================================
We have talked about what [Cinnamon][1] and [Nemo File Manage][2])r is in some of our [previous articles][3]. But if you still dont know what Cinnamon is, here you are:
Cinnamon is a desktop environment developed by the [Linux Mint][4] Team initially for Linux Mint. The desktop environment offers a more comfortable and modern experience to users.
If you love Unity (Ubuntu Default) like I do so much. I will advice you to try Cinnamon once and see. Installing Cinnamon doesnt mean you elimination Unity. NO.
The latest version of Cinnamon 1.8 is not yet available in Ubuntu repositories hence thanks to PPA, we can.
Some new features have been included in Cinnamon 1.8 including Screensaver, Cinnamon Control Center and [more][5].
**Installing Cinnamon.**
Open the Terminal and the run the following commands:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gwendal-lebihan-dev/cinnamon-stable

The Utilite Linux Mini PC
================================================================================
Hello guys!
Sometimes we need to test or use another Linux distribution than the one we use to complete our daily tasks and setting up a virtual machine is not always the best solution. Have you heard about the **Utilite** Linux Mini PC?
![](http://180016988.r.cdn77.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/utilite-computer-3.jpg)
utilite-computer-3The Utilite is a very good choice for users looking for a Linux Mini PC at an affordable price. This device is launched by Compulab, which is the manufacturer of the MintBox. Mintbox is a little Pc box which runs Linux Mint operating system. Utilite ARM-based Linux computer costs only **$99**, a fair price if we take in consideration what this device has to offer.
The **[Utilite][1]** linux device has **2 GB of RAM** and **4 GB of internal storage**, which can be extended using a micro-SD card. This mini computer supports both Ubuntu Linux and Google Android. If you like, you can also upgrade the device the Utilite Standard which comes with with a **dual core processor** and **2 GB of RAM** along with **8 GB of internal memory** and micro-SD card support. This device is the first ARM-based model from the company to feature Freescales i.MX6 processor family and in my opinion is the best way to run Ubuntu and other GNU/Linux operating systems without buying expensive hardware.
The Utilite has single core, dual core and quad core options for the processor and an also support HDMI + DVI, 2x GbE, Wi Fi and Bluetooth. There is also the Utilite Pro which comes with a quad core processor and 2 GB of RAM along with 32 GB of internal memory. Utilite Pro has support for:
- micro-SD card

Unity 8 updated with fancy new previews
================================================================================
Ubuntu converged is the next-generation pure Ubuntu experience, convergence-enabled operating system that is to power phones, tablets and desktops with fresh, new, innovative interfaces, behaviors and capabilities.
[Unity 8][1] is a critical part of Ubuntu converged, new Unity version traversing an impressive development road across the latest months, seeing new and new features, polish and additions on a constant basis.
Unity 8 has been updated to yet-another meaningful release, introducing significantly improved and refined previews for its content (images, video clips, music tracks, etc).
Running Unity 8, navigating to the Applications scope and clicking & holding on an application, the user is to notice the revamped previews for the previewing areas with:
- images are now more clearly rendered
- the text positioned at the top of the preview has been removed
- descriptions are more readable and properly located inside the preview
essentially, a more pleasant preview view.
![](http://iloveubuntu.net/pictures_me/unity%208%20new%20previews%20friends.png)
![](http://iloveubuntu.net/pictures_me/unity%208%20new%20previews%20vlc.png)
The newly-revamped previews have been implemented in multiple scopes, including the Videos scope, too; long-pressing on a video clip, pushes the clip into its dedicated preview, where the user is to be delighted by repositioned buttons, new listed entries with handy informations (`Format, Dimensions, Size`), relocated title, as well as by the newly-added play-like icon rendered on top of the clip's thumbnail.
Meaning, the user is now able to open video clips by both:
- hitting the `Play` button
- clicking directly on the thumbnail, action that opens the clip via the default video player
The Music scope follows the new designs, expressing its music previews with no header, resized thumbnails (filling now a more natural portion of the screen) and repositioned buttons.
![](http://iloveubuntu.net/pictures_me/unity%208%20music%20scope%20new%20previews.png)
Moreover, the images from the Photos scope are now exposed with the mentioned refinements, permitting more accurate observations of images with a more clean, clear look.
![](http://iloveubuntu.net/pictures_me/unity%208%20images%20new%20previews.png)
The new preview-wise enhancements add a significant instantly-noticeable elegance to Unity 8, while presenting items with more intuitive, easily-graspable informations, overall improvements surrounded by class and eyecandy gains.
Unity 8 is [available][2] for testing via Ubuntu 13.10's Ubuntu Software Center.

Use Python To SSH To Your Machine
================================================================================
It is time for some python programming. I love automating stuff and this time I will show you guys how to connect to your machine via **ssh using python** and run command on it. It is not hard, but at the same time not very easy to do this in python, since there are many modules and libraries to do this task. Are you curious about the module we will use in this tutorial?
We will use pxssh class of the pexpect module in Python which is used to to take care of some of the automation needs, like ssh and ftp. Do you want to make your sysadmin lifestyle as easy as possible? Then, why dont you focus on this tutorial and try to learn as much as possible? Ok ,ok, i got your attention now, so let me give you guys a simple description about pxssh. You can also get information about pxssh by typing help(pxssh) after importing it in a python interactive shell.
**Pxssh Description**
Pxssh is based on pexpect. Its class extends pexpect.spawn to specialize setting up SSH connections. I use pxssh frequently for making ssh connections in python. Pxssh uses the shell prompt to synchronize output from the remote host. In order to make this more robust it sets the shell prompt to something more unique than just $ or #. This should work on most Borne/Bash or Csh style shells.
You can read more about pxssh [here][1].
Now let the fun begin.
In the first step, we import everything we need and assign machine details to variables like shown in Figure 1.
![](http://180016988.r.cdn77.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/ssh1.png)
Figure 1
Then we create a function which will use pxssh to create and start a connection with the ssh server.
![](http://180016988.r.cdn77.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/ssh2.png)
Figure 2
Study carefully how we use try and except so we can handle errors. Read more about error handling in python here.
What is the next step?
The next step is to create a function which will send the command to the machine after the ssh connection between two machines is established.
![](http://180016988.r.cdn77.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/ssh3.png)
Figure 3
![](http://180016988.r.cdn77.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/ssh4.png)
Figure 4
Now close the file and save it. It is ready to run.
