Seafile: Robust File Synchronization And Collaboration Tool That You Can Run On Your Linux Server

<div style="text-align: justify;"><b><a href="http://seafile.com/">Seafile</a> is an open source cloud file synchronization and collaboration tool, similar to <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/">Dropbox</a>,</b><b> <a href="http://www.webupd8.org/2012/05/owncloud-4-released-with-file.html">OwnCloud</a> or <a href="http://www.webupd8.org/2012/12/install-sparkleshare-10-in-ubuntu.html">SparkleShare</a>, that you can use on your Linux server or you can sign up for a Seafile account and get 5GB of free space on their servers.</b></div><br /><br /><b>Seafile features:</b><br /><ul><li>Seafile uses file libraries which can be synchronized separately;</li><li>Users can create and join groups;</li><li>File revisions;</li><li>File preview, comments, event notifications;</li><li>Library encryption;</li><li>Share files; </li><li><b>Clients available for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Android and iOS.</b></li></ul><br /><a name='more'></a><br /><h2>Why Seafile?</h2><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">So why use Seafile and not Dropbox, <a href="http://www.webupd8.org/2012/05/owncloud-4-released-with-file.html">OwnCloud</a> or <a href="http://www.webupd8.org/2012/12/install-sparkleshare-10-in-ubuntu.html">SparkleShare</a>? According to the Seafile developers, their tool is more mature than ownCloud or SparkleShare, ready for production (both the server and client) and has an online collaboration feature useful for teamwork, which isn't available in Dropbox.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">However, Seafile does have less features some similar services: for instance, the calendar feature available in ownCloud is not available for Seafile. But Seafile is still very powerful: <b>it doesn't depend on GIT but it does uses a version control model similar to GIT, which is simplified and has some advantages</b> such as: automatic syncing, no history stored on the client side meaning that the data is not stored twice (GIT is not efficient for large files), more user-friendly file conflicts, handles cases such as when the user modifies files when auto-sync is running, file transfer can be resumed and more.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The Seafile Linux client consists of an <b>AppIndicator / tray icon</b> that displays the sync status and lets you open the client (in the browser), disable autosync or restart Seafile, displays sync notifications, and a pretty basic web interface:</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTaRl09t7h9IGMXJRFXOke3Z1LvFUIRw7ft2aQG6Y2Tcfc8LslG1I_vTl96XXZ_orGjEt6JxguidDL-FDcJ3qb3aW31n44h3x2hr_PacNfCqgyCgf56qLVJLmsx6YjmuDGnnj1QSOgjf3y/s1600/seafile-client.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="Seafile Linux client"><img alt="Seafile Linux client" border="0" height="214" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTaRl09t7h9IGMXJRFXOke3Z1LvFUIRw7ft2aQG6Y2Tcfc8LslG1I_vTl96XXZ_orGjEt6JxguidDL-FDcJ3qb3aW31n44h3x2hr_PacNfCqgyCgf56qLVJLmsx6YjmuDGnnj1QSOgjf3y/s320/seafile-client.png" title="Seafile Linux client" width="320" /></a></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Unfortunately, there's no file manager integration so you can't share files, access previous revisions or see the file sync status from the file manager, but like I was saying above, you can see the global sync status thanks to the tray icon. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Most of the features are accessible from the server web interface (which is either installed on your own Linux server or via Seafile's website): there, you can create new private or public libraries, see all the changes / revisions and files, download, upload or create new files and folders, share files, create or join groups, add contacts, post messages to grups, set up group notifications and so on.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you click on library, you'll notice that the interface looks a lot like GitHub:</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipR8DKp4jHDP3XRHyUx8PnLiCoqeCdQoxgaPP_prTYeP05FcQaDU50ERdiWg380YGAMpU4FIVhJh7L0TzP6KPtG3YfJDChPHyWxvRL_cKTbBQjmgtCR42wVJNW0ole3RcfkTArCLG4OAuP/s1600/seafile-server-workspace-library.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="Seafile library example"><img alt="Seafile library example" border="0" height="182" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipR8DKp4jHDP3XRHyUx8PnLiCoqeCdQoxgaPP_prTYeP05FcQaDU50ERdiWg380YGAMpU4FIVhJh7L0TzP6KPtG3YfJDChPHyWxvRL_cKTbBQjmgtCR42wVJNW0ole3RcfkTArCLG4OAuP/s320/seafile-server-workspace-library.png" title="Seafile library example" width="320" /></a></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Here, you can see all the files available in that library, access the library history and so on.

With a minor change, I've also got it to work with Ubuntu 13.04.</div><br /><br /><a name='more'></a><br /><h2>Dodge Windows?</h2><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Unity used to support "window dodge" autohide behaviour until Ubuntu 12.04. <b>Using "dodge windows", the Launcher hides when the active window or a maximized window overlaps it.</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are two window dodge scripts (both packaged as debs so you don't have to set up anything manually) you can use with Ubuntu 12.10 and 13.04: one that adds a "real" window dodge behaviour, just like it was implemented in Unity until Ubuntu 12.04, as described above, and another one that makes the launcher dodge only for maximized windows.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Below you can watch the Unity Dodge Windows script in action, under Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail:</div><br /><center><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/TFdtSAvatig" width="560"></iframe><br />(<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFdtSAvatig">direct video link</a>)</center><br /><br /><br /><h2>Known issues / limitations</h2><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>The Unity Dodge Windows script isn't perfect and has some limitations:</b></div><ul style="text-align: justify;"><li>it doesn't work with multiple monitors;</li><li>if you were using two monitors but disabled / unplugged one, you need to log out and log back in for Unity Dodge Windows to work;</li><li>the icons on the desktop will shift to the left when the launcher hides and move back to their initial location when the launcher is revealed (you can see this in the video above). This isn't a big issue if you're using the script that makes the launcher dodge only for maximized windows, but for the other one you may find it a bit annoying. A work-around is to disable the file manager from handling the desktop (e.g.: using GNOME Tweak Tool: on the "Desktop" tab, set "Have file manager handle the desktop" to OFF). If you find a better work-around, let us know;</li></ul><br />Also, to enable / disable it, you must install / uninstall the package (see below) and log out, then log back in.

Sublime Text 3 Beta Available For Download

<div style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.sublimetext.com/">Sublime Text</a> is probably among the best text/code editors available for Linux, and it's cross-platform so it works on Windows and Mac OS X too. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Sublime Text 2 stable was released about 7 months ago and since then, its developer has been working on a new version: <a href="http://www.sublimetext.com/blog/articles/sublime-text-3-beta">Sublime Text 3</a>. Even though Sublime Text is not free, up until now, users could evaluate it for an unlimited period of time which basically meant you didn't really had to buy it unless you wanted to support the developer. However, the latest Sublime Text 3 beta can only be used if you've purchased a license (USD $70, pretty expensive I'd say), but the old evaluation model might be used later on.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhV1YCkty5328riI70bxOervsp9ByCR8bL7qUyKAQbOnhP4YxWPxcxh_kCHjniTdkVTw-ITS0jraPlZ4jVwv1QzDP3hCYl3QmwwKYPcpdOGRyamie-gPWpk3SW6ONUIN9NANk_zmWBUJ-Sl/s1600/sublime-text-3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="209" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhV1YCkty5328riI70bxOervsp9ByCR8bL7qUyKAQbOnhP4YxWPxcxh_kCHjniTdkVTw-ITS0jraPlZ4jVwv1QzDP3hCYl3QmwwKYPcpdOGRyamie-gPWpk3SW6ONUIN9NANk_zmWBUJ-Sl/s320/sublime-text-3.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">Starting with the latest Sublime Text 3 beta builds, the application now uses <b>Python 3.3</b> for the plugins and also, it runs them out of process so they can't crash the main Sublime Text process anymore.

I-Nex: Tool To List Hardware Information In Linux, Similar To CPU-Z

<div style="text-align: justify;"><b><a href="https://launchpad.net/i-nex">I-Nex</a> is an application that gathers information for hardware components available on your system and displays it using an user interface similar to the popular Windows tool CPU-Z.</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I-Nex can display information for the following components: CPU, GPU, Motherboard, Sound, Hard disks, RAM, Network and USB as well as some system info like the hostname, Linux distribution and version, Xorg, GCC, GLX versions and Linux Kernel info.</div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Besides being able to display hardware information, I-Nex can also generate an advanced report for which you can select what to include and optionally send the report to a service such as Pastebin (and others).

Also, the hardware information is presented in a way that's easier to understand than other such tools.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The only downside is that I-Nex uses a very new Gambas3 version for the user interface so you have to add a PPA for Gambas3, even on Ubuntu 13.04.</div><br />Here are some I-Nex screenshots:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuhDcQmLB88CtyvUUFHnCDgegzDjhaJKcAPttB_blQmCzf9Iegg6mSpmJOx79AIlVtXq1MxofphaeeL6gJ8ca5tD2h8eRwtrzPKcm7Oiyu3xJCT3w9TahtaA47EqE9XYjWaCvBM1VUNexa/s1600/i-nex-hdd.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="HDD"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuhDcQmLB88CtyvUUFHnCDgegzDjhaJKcAPttB_blQmCzf9Iegg6mSpmJOx79AIlVtXq1MxofphaeeL6gJ8ca5tD2h8eRwtrzPKcm7Oiyu3xJCT3w9TahtaA47EqE9XYjWaCvBM1VUNexa/s320/i-nex-hdd.png" width="281" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7rYQRq-AzBHw0gdmJvjdIQGe6au-U4KSkUNeU2vvhQVfSO17djsWcMsqeqjkSJZsmqDcUsrM2WfR2I24ZIBmk6Bn-wu_GIfILCxiOfg7N4uyxkcbybngQa8jwgzieJoLMXWy-6gMoqK9V/s1600/i-nex-cpu.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="CPU"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7rYQRq-AzBHw0gdmJvjdIQGe6au-U4KSkUNeU2vvhQVfSO17djsWcMsqeqjkSJZsmqDcUsrM2WfR2I24ZIBmk6Bn-wu_GIfILCxiOfg7N4uyxkcbybngQa8jwgzieJoLMXWy-6gMoqK9V/s320/i-nex-cpu.png" width="281" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWSVLZHm_6DAfwY_2p5o7S2WIETf_gMDZZxFLnKzhfeN81wxIGwQATP7C5bqeQ_Na2oQzlLFKecYf0m-iPsPsstNFP_fcTZGgNRvzgs-xIb9M4lH5f7aQ3T9oRkxsBDTVrfdrtuvd2XXry/s1600/i-nex-motherboard.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="Motherboard"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWSVLZHm_6DAfwY_2p5o7S2WIETf_gMDZZxFLnKzhfeN81wxIGwQATP7C5bqeQ_Na2oQzlLFKecYf0m-iPsPsstNFP_fcTZGgNRvzgs-xIb9M4lH5f7aQ3T9oRkxsBDTVrfdrtuvd2XXry/s320/i-nex-motherboard.png" width="281" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiB5O9xxCuCjx8GmwD01LDNKt09YuJEQKeuxQV1A2nS_qtAqMySSH3MRf4PVbxDanlHgh0prLdLlmqpqn5C1i344xsZRprA6ZfABEzrvmqVDzme33ThfHCjQL-oSI2fDUnytThQnGhP1NT/s1600/i-nex-sound.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="Sound"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiB5O9xxCuCjx8GmwD01LDNKt09YuJEQKeuxQV1A2nS_qtAqMySSH3MRf4PVbxDanlHgh0prLdLlmqpqn5C1i344xsZRprA6ZfABEzrvmqVDzme33ThfHCjQL-oSI2fDUnytThQnGhP1NT/s320/i-nex-sound.png" width="281" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidC5-JVZI42-HHZOhneZTtOAiDzeLZ_DaEEJNe4Vqo6Z6UVRvONWCCkw5hXJGZrswBLdQ93MfXwLmSaxvwNiITfUajvebgXVGDWpXnmUQB-OGjzXTDOsT3AqFqjn_lK_t4hAFyhzRgvZCF/s1600/i-nex-usb.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="USB"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidC5-JVZI42-HHZOhneZTtOAiDzeLZ_DaEEJNe4Vqo6Z6UVRvONWCCkw5hXJGZrswBLdQ93MfXwLmSaxvwNiITfUajvebgXVGDWpXnmUQB-OGjzXTDOsT3AqFqjn_lK_t4hAFyhzRgvZCF/s320/i-nex-usb.png" width="281" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnQX9DlAWe74LOgxxn4yIWizvYGu73HT2idg8P10NOe4HxCo34rOFUNLQMCSXVrzqNkA5twB04JRIosX_qVBwEeE7ncTswEwI2x_qTV1rxHbnzQyl24b_nAvR61qlQdRK55gKM_zMEb7m3/s1600/i-nex-gpu.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="GPU"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnQX9DlAWe74LOgxxn4yIWizvYGu73HT2idg8P10NOe4HxCo34rOFUNLQMCSXVrzqNkA5twB04JRIosX_qVBwEeE7ncTswEwI2x_qTV1rxHbnzQyl24b_nAvR61qlQdRK55gKM_zMEb7m3/s320/i-nex-gpu.png" width="281" /></a></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Note: just like with others such tools to list hardware information, the data it displays is not always 100% accurate!</b></div><br /><br /><h2>Install I-Nex in Ubuntu</h2><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Like I was saying above, you must add the Gambas3 PPA along with the I-Nex PPA to be able to install I-Nex in Ubuntu.
