Linux Books

Of course the Internet along with the help of Google is a great source of information. You can answer almost any question you have about Linux and find many tutorials, guides and help. However many people prefer reading this information on a printed book accesssible even when they are not online or don't have a computer in front of them. I've received many e-mails asking me to propose them a few good books regarding Linux commands, administration and for specific distributions such as Ubuntu, Fedora etc. So, I've search for a few good books. Here they are. Happy reading!

avidemux_logo.jpgIn this guide I will describe you how to convert a video file to Xvid/H264 using Avidemux. For those who haven't heard it before, Avidemux is a free video editor for Windows, Linux and MAC. In this tutorial I have used the Linux version.

The idea of writing this guide came to my mind while I was copying videos from my digital camera to my computer. I own a Canon Digital Ixus which although it is and old model I am very satisfied from its images quality. However it captures video using the MJPEG format and PCM audio codec. This means that for a 30 seconds video at 30 frames per rate it needs about 53MB of space in my hard disk disk drive. Although that there are very cheap hard disks nowadays I thought of reencoding these videos so that don't need so much space. So let's move with the guide.

kde.jpgIn the past few days I've been searching around the web for a way to synchronize my KAddressbook contacts and KOrganizer calendar with my Google mail contacts and calendar. For those who don't know what KAddressbook and KOrganizer are I have to mention that they are applications of KDE's Kontact suite. Yeap, I am talking about Linux here. At first I found out GCalDaemon which is using an LDAP server to syncrhonize the Contacts. However the synchronization is one way and therefore it didn't fulfill my needs. And then I found out that the two way synchronization is easy by using KDE's Akonadi and the libgcal library. So, here is a guide I've written on how to synchronize gmail's contacts and calendar with KDE.
