How to install Zim Text Editor in Ubuntu / Linux Mint

zim-equationzim-equation

Zim has been updated recently to version 0.58 bringing more bug fixes, especially for the bug that prevented the application to start after crashing. This new release allows users to export LaTeX equations and interwiki links are now working fine.

If you have no idea about Zim, it's a graphical (WYSIWYG) text editor written in Python and GTK+ developed by Jaap Karssenberg who wants to bring the concept of a wiki to your Linux desktop. Zim is also considered a personal journal or to-do list.

It can also serve as a distraction-free writing tool that, for example, helps users write novels, short stories, or complex LaTeX equations for Math projects using the 'Equation Editor' plugin.

Zim allows simple formatting or markup for typed text (italics, numbered list, checkbox list, bullet lists, headings, etc.), insert/attach images, link to other wiki pages.

Zim Installation

Open the terminal and install it with the following commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jaap.karssenberg/zim
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install zim

How to Free up Unused Memory in Ubuntu/Linux Mint

 

ubuntu-logo

Check Memory Usage in Real-Time

  • You can check your current memory usage using this command:



                       watch -n 1 free -m




  • This command will also display in real-time your system memory usage:


                           watch -n 1 cat /proc/meminfo

Free Up Unused Memory


   Command 1

                                       sudo sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=3

NOTE: this action won't make your system faster nor it will affect its stability and performance, it will just clean up memory used by the Linux Kernel on caches.

Command 2
Here is another command that can help you free up memory either used or cached (page cache, inodes, and dentries):

sudo sync && echo 3 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

Install and enable XScreensaver in ubuntu 12.04.2

XScreensaver in ubuntu 12.04.3

XScreenSaver is the standard screen saver collection shipped on most Linux and Unix systems running the X11 Window System. I released the first version in 1992. I ported it to MacOS X in 2006, and to iOS in 2012.On X11 systems, XScreenSaver is two things: it is both a large collection of screen savers; and it is also the framework for blanking and locking the screen.On MacOS systems, these screen savers work with the usual MacOS screen saving framework (X11 is not required).On iOS devices, it is an application that lets you run each of the demo modes manually.

XScreenSaver is a collection of about many free screensavers for Linux.

sudo apt-get remove gnome-screensaver
sudo apt-get install xscreensaver xscreensaver-gl-extra xscreensaver-data-extra

create file for autostart enter following command in terminal:

sudo gedit /etc/xdg/autostart/screensaver.desktop

after that copy and paste the following code in file:

[Desktop Entry]
    Name=Screensaver
    Type=Application
    Exec=xscreensaver -nosplash

Save and Exit the file.
