BurnOutPC.com has just posted their review on some XTracPads Accessories

The goodies XTracPads send me were really effective in making my mousing experience a lot better. The MouseGrips are something that I use daily on my MX510, and I won't take them off ! Their great. Looking at the MouseDotz, it's just a matter of preference, their pre-cut and fairly thin so they should stay on your mouse for a long while, but teflon tape works just as good and comes with any mouse pad you buy, also with a XTracPads. The Instaglide does make your mouse glide better, but it also requires constant swiping of the bottom every few days so I wouldn't really want to do that. But yeah it works. Overall three nice products, I was most impressed by the MouseGrips.

NGOHQ.com posted NGO ATI Optimized Driver v1.7.2

The NGO ATI Optimized Driver is a modified version of the ATI Catalyst driver. The main purpose is to satisfy the users with better performance, image quality and compatibility. The NGO ATI Optimized Driver can enhance your experience in games, multimedia and general usage. This project is especially suited for enthusiasts and gamers that want to have the best gaming experience.

This driver includes ATI Control Panel and ATI Tray Tools by Ray Adams (Optional). We've preferred to include Control Panel over Catalyst Control Center due to the lower memory usage and flexibility. You can use ATI Tray Tools to take full control and to adjust advanced features while the Control Panel will give you basic control options. With ATI Tray Tools you can create game profiles and assign specific settings for each application.

DebianAdmin posted a guide about Network File System (NFS) Server and Client Configuration in Debian

NFS was developed at a time when we weren’t able to share our drives like we are able to today - in the Windows environment. It offers the ability to share the hard disk space of a big server with many smaller clients. Again, this is a client/server environment. While this seems like a standard service to offer, it was not always like this. In the past, clients and servers were unable to share their disk space.
