The Desktop Notifications framework provides a standard way of doing
passive pop-up notifications on the desktop. These are designed to
notify the user of something without interrupting their work with a
dialog box that they must close. Passive popups can automatically
disappear after a short period of time.

Conky is a system monitor for X originally based on the torsmo code.
Since it's original conception, Conky has changed a fair bit from it's
predecessor. Conky can display just about anything, either on your root
desktop or in it's own window. Conky has many built-in objects, as well
as the ability to execute programs and scripts, then display the output
from stdout.

Monitord is a compact Perl-based tool for watching the health of UNIX
systems. Monitord monitors the local system by watching the process
table, load average figures, the amount of free space in file systems,
and the output of custom monitoring scripts.

The shunt utilites: shunt, exactly, and flyisofs, were originally
written for burning multi-set CDROM backups using mkiosfs and cdrecord.
The key utility -- shunt -- manages recursive access to piped I/O, so that
programs may be restarted and continue to use an existing pipe.

rdiff-backup backs up one directory to another, possibly over a network.
The target directory ends up a copy of the source directory, but extra
reverse diffs are stored in a special subdirectory of that target
directory, so you can still recover files lost some time ago. The idea
is to combine the best features of a mirror and an incremental backup.
rdiff-backup also preserves subdirectories, hard links, dev files,
permissions, uid/gid ownership, modification times, extended attributes,
acls, and resource forks. Also, rdiff-backup can operate in a bandwidth
efficient manner over a pipe, like rsync. Thus you can use rdiff-backup
and ssh to securely back a hard drive up to a remote location, and only
the differences will be transmitted. Finally, rdiff-backup is easy to
use and settings have sensical defaults.

ncdu is an ncurses version of the famous old 'du' unix command. It
provides a fast and easy interface to your harddrive. Where is your disk
space going? Why is your home directory that large? ncdu can answer
those questions for you in just a matter of seconds.

Bacula is a set of computer programs that permit you (or the system
administrator) to manage backup, recovery, and verification of
computer data across a network of computers of different kinds.
In technical terms, it is a network Client/Server based backup program.
Bacula is relatively easy to use and efficient, while offering many
advanced storage management features that make it easy to find and
recover lost or damaged files. Due to its modular design, Bacula is
scalable from small single computer systems to systems consisting of
hundreds of computers located over a large network.

libstatgrab is a library that provides cross platform access to
statistics about the system on which it's run. It's written in C and
presents a selection of useful interfaces which can be used to access
key system statistics. The current list of statistics includes CPU
usage, memory utilisation, disk usage, process counts, network traffic,
disk I/O, and more.

Filelight creates an interactive map of concentric segmented-rings that
helps visualise disk usage on your computer.
It is like a pie-chart, but the segments nest, allowing you to see not
only which directories take up all your space, but which directories and
files inside those directories are the real culprits.

Logpp is a tool for preprocessing event logs and feeding relevant
information to other programs for storing or in-depth analysis.
During its work, logpp reads lines appended to input files (like tail(1)
in -f mode), matches the lines with patterns (e.g., regular
expressions), converts matching lines according to given templates, and
writes the results to given destinations.
Logpp supports multi-line matching and several types of output
destinations like regular files, FIFOs, external programs, and the
system logger.Therefore, logpp can act as a filter in front of the
more complex event log analysis system and increase the system's
performance by weeding out irrelevant log data; it can work as a syslog
gateway between the system logger and the application that doesn't use
syslog(3); it can convert multiline log messages to shorter single
line messages, and accomplish other log pre-processing tasks.

Puppet lets you centrally manage every important aspect of your system using
a cross-platform specification language that manages all the separate
elements normally aggregated in different files, like users, cron jobs,
and hosts, along with obviously discrete elements like packages, services,
and files.
Puppet's simple declarative specification language provides powerful classing
abilities for drawing out the similarities between hosts while allowing them
to be as specific as necessary, and it handles dependency and prerequisite
relationships between objects clearly and explicitly.
Puppet is written entirely in Ruby.
A cross-platform Ruby library for retrieving facts from operating systems.
Supports multiple resolution mechanisms, any of which can be restricted to
working only on certain operating systems or environments.
Facter is especially useful for retrieving things like operating system names,
IP addresses, MAC addresses, and SSH keys.
ocaml apps compiled using it.
Issue was that the configure script which tried threads gets confused by
the spurious OpenBSD linker warnings about sprintf and falls back to VM
threads.
