NCDU a ncurses based disk analyzer added

Slackware package created for ncdu a nice disk analyzer. Pretty fast and efficient, and does the job when you do not want to run into a gui. The particular usage is when some files should be actually consuming less space but they consume more and we get erratic results with df.

The source code can be found here. And the slackware x64 package can be found here.

Here are a few screenshots.

Android Roms – cyanomodgen 7.1 & miui 1.12.9

Been using cm7 for quite some time on my motorola defy. Was wondering how miui would work so put it up 2 days back and was happy to see some nice features.

So I compiled a small comparison of the roms -

CM7.1 Miui 1.12.9
Dialer calls grouped, shows number of calls calls are not grouped by contact
dialer does not search contact for matching numbers as you type dialer searches contacts for matching numbers as you type
default launcher adw go
file manager OI good one, shows memory usage on startup
app killer not available available, press home key for 2-3 seconds
call recording not available available
pulldown menu on home / notification widgets better worse
power button menu available not available
music player seeking support available not available
blacklisting available available
inbuilt firewall not available available, but does not seem to be foolproof, some applications got their way around this
tablet tweaks available not available
quiet hours available not available
mute camera shutter available not available

Android security check

Following is a security check done using avast beta version, limited applications checked, installed android versio is 2.3.7, kernel 2..32.9, CM7.1

Why does cardio trainer need to access contacts?

Just too many apps needing to know about identity!!!
