USB_ModeSwitch is (surprise!) a mode switching tool for controlling
"flip flop" (multiple device) USB gear.
USB_ModeSwitch makes this process easy to handle by taking the important
parameters from a configuration file and doing all the initialization
and communication stuff, with heavy help from "libusb". It is mainly
used automatically - via udev events and rules - to do the switch
without any user interaction. But it can also be run as a command line
tool, usually when trying to make unknown devices work with it.
uschedule is not cron and uschedule is not at - it does offer similar
functionality but is not intended to be a drop-in replacement. It works
differently. It's designed to be different.
'userneu' is a Perl script that parses a list of usernames and additional
information (such as the real name or other information to be put in the
GECOS field in /etc/passwd) and creates Unix accounts and (if desired)
Samba accounts as well. If the script stumbles upon duplicate user names
it can append random characters to the username until it fits.

vbetool is a small application that executes code from the BIOS of your
video card. This is mostly useful for reinitialising the hardware,
for instance after ACPI suspend/resuming.
Videogen calculates XFree86 modelines.
Virtualmin is a virtual hosting management system written by Jamie
Cameron, that integrates cleanly into the Webmin system administration
tool.

Vobcopy copies DVD .vob files to harddisk, decrypting them on the
way (thanks to libdvdread) and merges them into 2 GB files (or
larger) with the name extracted from the DVD. It checks for enough
free space on the destination drive and compares the copied size
to the size on DVD (in case something went wrong during the copying).
volman is a FreeBSD specific volume manager. It acts
as a translator of devd(8) events, probing storage
devices for their file system information, and serving
this over a FIFO based API to which clients can
subscribe. In addition to notifying clients of new
or lost volumes, it will mount and unmount such
volumes at the command of subscribing clients.
It runs as root and allows any local clients the
ability to mount and unmount volumes which are
detected, regardless of any user privileges. This
is intended for single user X11 systems needing
an easy way of accessing USB flash disks on the fly.
DanZFS provides a Python API for checking the status of ZFS without the use of
libzfs by calling the system binaries and parsing the output.
Currently you can: -
1. List the ZFS properties (name, property, value, source)
2. List filesystems, snapshots, and volumes (name, used, available, refer, and
mountpoint)
3. Query the pool IO statistics (name, capacity, operations, and bandwidth)
4. List the pools (name, size, allocated, free, capacity, deduplication, health,
and alternativeroot)
5. Query the pool status (name, state, status, action, scan, config-type,
config-disks, and errors)
6. Replication "daemon" allowing near realtime local and remote replication
using snapshots.
The data from the API calls will be returned as a Python dictionary.
Example code is provided and will be installed into the
${PREFIX}/share/examples/danzfs directory.
