GNOME's Vala programming language lets you use the GLib2 object system at the heart of the GNOME desktop without having to do object-oriented programming in ANSI C. Unlike Mono or Java, a Vala program does not require any virtual machine or runtime libraries, so people who use your Vala objects don't even have to know they are not written in C.

"Sugar is based on the GNOME platform, using tools and libraries such as GTK+ and Telepathy (in the same vein that Xfce uses some GNOME libraries). Sugar is geared toward children, with a focus on delivering an interface that allows unique interaction, as well as educational applications. And while Sugar features modified applications such as browsers, chat, games and basic editing tools with children in mind, it stands out from some other "education" software compilations through programs like Pippy, an application designed to teach children the basics of programming with Python."

This release is a snapshot of development code. Although it is buildable and usable, it is primarily intended for testing and hacking purposes. GNOME uses odd minor version numbers to indicate development status.

This tutorial shows how you can set up a Fedora 10 desktop (GNOME) that is a full-fledged replacement for a Windows desktop, i.e. that has all the software that people need to do the things they do on their Windows desktops. The advantages are clear: you get a secure system without DRM restrictions that works even on old hardware, and the best thing is: all software comes free of charge.

IconAs part of its initiative to improve the usability of the Linux desktop, Canonical has made a proposal for a desktop notification system for both GNOME and KDE. Mark Shuttleworth announced the proposal on his blog earlier this week. The mockup video shows notification more or less like the 3d party Growl system for Mac OS X. Since we are talking Linux here, the meat is in the implementation details and cross-desktop compatibility.

Icon"Mainstream Linux distributions typically default to one of two desktop environments, KDE or GNOME. Both of these environments provide users with an intuitive and attractive desktop, as well as offering a large raft of multimedia software, games, administration programs, network tools, educational applications, utilities, artwork, web development tools and more. However, these two desktops focus more on providing users with a modern computing environment with all the bells and whistles featured in Windows Vista, rather than minimising the amount of system resources they need. For users and developers who want to run an attractive Linux desktop on older hardware, netbooks, or mobile internet devices, neither KDE or GNOME may be a viable option, as they run too slowly on low spec machines (such as less than 256MB RAM and a 1 GHz process

"So the first step is finding a terminal on your Linux system, and I haven't seen a Linux distribution yet that didn't include several by default. On KDE look in your start menus for Konsole, and on Gnome look for Terminal or Gnome-Terminal. There are dozens of different terminals: xterm, aterm, rxvt, eterm, and many more. Apparently Linux geeks love terminals.

"The Vala compiler, valac, compiles Vala code into C code, which is then compiled with gcc into object code. A big issue when you try to use a high-level language in a traditionally C environment is language bindings: where they come from, how well maintained they are, and whether there are bugs in them. Using a high-level language can be more frustrating than just using C if the bindings are not high quality. Vala includes tools that use GLib introspection, which lets you generate a Vala binding for any GLib object. The packages of Vala for Fedora 9 include bindings to GLib2, GTK+2, SDL, SQLite, WebKit, libsoup, libglade-2, hildon, hal, gstreamer, cairo, and dbus -- thus, many of the libraries you would want for a GLib2/GTK+2 based desktop or handheld application are already available to a Vala application.

Internal friction within the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) project led to the departure of Walter Bender—the project's former president of software—earlier this year. He launched Sugar Labs, a non-profit organization dedicated to improving and encouraging adoption of the Sugar environment, an interactive software platform that was originally designed by OLPC to implement constructivist education philosophies.
