The reform2_lpc module allows for interaction with the NXP LPC11U24 Cortex-M0 MCU system controller in the Reform 2 open hardware laptop. It provides battery status information and is necessary to completely shut down the system when powering it off via userspace.

python-spython is a Python library to interact with Singularity containers.

libnetfilter_conntrack is a userspace library providing a programming interface (API) to the in-kernel connection tracking state table. The library libnetfilter_conntrack has been previously known as libnfnetlink_conntrack and libctnetlink. This library is currently used by conntrack-tools among many other applications.

This package provides the statically-linked btrfs from the btrfs-progs package. It is meant to be used in initrds.

inputattach dispatches input events from several device types and interfaces and translates so that the X server can use them.

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

strace is a system call tracer, i.e. a debugging tool which prints out a trace of all the system calls made by a another process/program.

This package provides statically-linked e2fsck command taken from the e2fsprogs package. It is meant to be used in initrds.

x86_energy_perf_policy displays and updates energy-performance policy settings specific to Intel Architecture Processors. Settings are accessed via Model Specific Register (MSR) updates, no matter if the Linux cpufreq sub-system is enabled or not.

The PSM Messaging API, or PSM API, is Intel's low-level user-level communications interface for the True Scale family of products. PSM users are enabled with mechanisms necessary to implement higher level communications interfaces in parallel environments.

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 contains utilities for accessing the powercap Linux kernel feature through sysfs. It includes an implementation for working with Intel RAPL. It provides the commands powercap-info and powercap-set.

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.

This package provides the following binaries to drive the Linux Device Mapper multipathing driver:

1. multipath - Device mapper target autoconfig.

2. multipathd - Multipath daemon.

3. mpathpersist - Manages SCSI persistent reservations on dm multipath devices.

4. kpartx - Create device maps from partition tables.

The EVDI is a Linux kernel module that enables management of multiple screens, allowing user-space programs to take control over what happens with the image. It is essentially a virtual display for which applications using the libevdi library can add, remove, and receive screen updates.

The EVDI driver uses the standard Linux DRM. Its displays can be controlled by standard tools such as xrandr and display settings applets in graphical environments

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.

Iotop is a Python program with a top like user interface to show the processes currently causing I/O.

This program allows you read and control device brightness. Devices include backlight and LEDs. It can also preserve current brightness before applying the operation, such as on lid close.

The appropriate permissions must be set on the backlight or LED control interface in sysfs, which can be accomplished with the included udev rules.

mbpfan is a fan control daemon for Apple Macbooks. It uses input from the coretemp module and sets the fan speed using the applesmc module. It can be executed as a daemon or in the foreground with root privileges.

FBGrab is a framebuffer screenshot program that captures the Linux framebuffer and converts it to a PNG image. It can also convert a framebuffer dump file (copy) to a PNG image.

Tools for loading and managing Linux kernel modules, such as modprobe, insmod, lsmod, and more.

Modprobed-db is a useful utility for users wishing to build a minimal kernel via a make localmodconfig. In a nutshell, this make target creates a config based on the current config and a list of modules you define (that modprobed-db keeps for you). It then disables any module option that is not needed thus not building extraneous modules. This results in a system-specific, streamlined kernel package and footprint as well as reduced compilation times.

Modprobed-db simply logs every module ever probed on the target system to a text-based database ($XDG_CONFIG_HOME/modprobed-db), which can be read directly by make localmodconfig as described above.

cachefilesd is a userspace daemon that manages the cache data store that is used by network file systems such as AFS and NFS to cache data locally on disk. The content of the cache is persistent over reboots.
