Huge List of the Best Open-Source Apps

[treesurf]

I would like to toss Gnome-Do on top of the pile. I can't seem to use my computer without it anymore.

+1. Gnome-Do definitely belongs on the list.

Just me or is this a bit biased towards GNOME apps?

Yep. The fact he/she put F-Spot on the list and forgot about the superior digiKam is proof. And let's not forget about K9Copy. Far better than any other DVD ripping tool.

1)
Google Chrome: available in an easy deb from google now, its still classed unstable but runs very well.

2)
Universal Applets: The new and improved Screenlet widgets.

3)
Google Gadgets: a sidebar & widgets, its available in qt and gtk.

Mplayer: handles pretty much any video file, with many frontends! such as gnome-mplayer,and my favorite "smplayer" etc...
Shocked to be honest it aint on the list yet!! It definitely deserves a spot!

SMplayer : bringing mplayer with a qt frontend and theming ability!.

A bit of a warning, this topic was necromanced so the first post has some out-of-date installation instructions. Especially Compiz.

among all the posts above, nobody mentined a Download Manager for linux, may be there is no good Dowload accelator .
pl
- D4x looks terreble and buggy and you can hardly finish a download using it .
- axel is wost application ever it was like designed 20 years ago . and noone works on it.
- Kget works fine (still no good compared to windows' Download Accelerator Plus (DAP))but it is for kde.
- Wget is stupid and buggy. and not as good as Kget.
