Touchégg is an application that runs in the background and transform the gestures you make on your touchpad or touchscreen into visible actions in your desktop.

The inotify-tools packages provides a C library and command-line tools to use Linux' inotify mechanism, which allows file accesses to be monitored.

This package provides a WiiMote driver that follows the Linux input convention. Specifically, that allows you to use the D-pad as a gamepad.

This package provides a way to record and replay device descriptions and events, making it possible to emulate input devices through the Linux kernel's input system. Emulated devices are for most practical purposes indistinguishable from real devices.

It provides a command line program and also a Python library.

As a consequence of its monolithic design, file system code for Linux normally goes into the kernel itself---which is not only a robustness issue, but also an impediment to system extensibility. FUSE, for "file systems in user space", is a kernel module and user-space library that tries to address part of this problem by allowing users to run file system implementations as user-space processes.

GNU Linux-Libre is a free (as in freedom) variant of the Linux kernel. It has been modified to remove all non-free binary blobs.

Hotspot is a standalone GUI for performance data analysis. It aims to be similar to KCachegrind, but for data collected with perf, a profiler for use with the kernel Linux. Its main feature is graphically visualizing a perf.data file.

Keyd is a keyboard remapping utility with intuitive ini configuration file format. Keyd has several features, many of which are traditionally only found in custom keyboard firmware like QMK.

Dual Function Keys is a plugin for interception-tools that allows one to send arbitrary keycodes when a given key is tapped or held.

kernel-hardening-checker is a tool for checking the security hardening options of the Linux kernel. Provided preferences are based on suggestions from various sources, including:

• KSPP recommended settings

• CLIP OS kernel configuration

• Last public grsecurity patch (options which they disable)

• SECURITY_LOCKDOWN_LSM patchset

• Direct feedback from the Linux kernel maintainers

This tool supports checking Kconfig options and kernel cmdline parameters.

haveged generates an unpredictable stream of random numbers for use by Linux's /dev/random and /dev/urandom devices. The kernel's standard mechanisms for filling the entropy pool may not be sufficient for systems with high needs or limited user interaction, such as headless servers.

haveged runs as a privileged daemon, harvesting randomness from the indirect effects of hardware events on hidden processor state using the HAVEGE algorithm. It tunes itself to its environment and provides the same built-in test suite for the output stream as used on certified hardware security devices.

The quality of the randomness produced by this algorithm has not been proven. It is recommended to run it together with another entropy source like rngd, and not as a replacement for it.

GNU Linux-Libre is a free (as in freedom) variant of the Linux kernel. It has been modified to remove all non-free binary blobs.

This package provides userspace helpers for memory error detection and correction (EDAC).

FuseISO is a FUSE module to mount ISO file system images (.iso, .nrg, .bin, .mdf and .img files). It supports plain ISO9660 Level 1 and 2, Rock Ridge, Joliet, and zisofs.

Udev is a daemon which dynamically creates and removes device nodes from /dev/, handles hotplug events and loads drivers at boot time.

Procps is the package that has a bunch of small useful utilities that give information about processes using the Linux /proc file system. The package includes the programs free, pgrep, pidof, pkill, pmap, ps, pwdx, slabtop, tload, top, vmstat, w, watch and sysctl.

efibootmgr is a user-space application to modify the Intel Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) Boot Manager. This application can create and destroy boot entries, change the boot order, change the next running boot option, and more.

The Falco security libraries include libsinsp and libscap. libscap manages the data capture process, while libsinsp is a system inspection library that enriches events from libscap with machine state. libsinsp also performs events filtering with rule evaluation through its internal rule engine. These libraries are used by the sysdig command-line utility.

Collection of tools to query what type of USB devices are connected to the system, including lsusb. The experimental usbreset command included in the package, but be aware that it may not work for all devices.

Libnfsidmap is a library holding multiple methods of mapping names to ids and visa versa, mainly for NFSv4. It provides an extensible array of mapping functions, currently consisting of two choices: the default nsswitch and the experimental umich_ldap.

This package provides Python bindings for interacting with GPIO devices that avoids the usage of older system-wide /sys interface.

snapscreenshot saves a screenshot of one or more Linux text consoles as a Targa (.tga) image. It can be used by anyone with read access to the relevant /dev/vcs* file(s).
