partimage_0.6.0_i386.zip
It is probably a good idea to have 'Debian unsupported sources' selected in XN before you attempt to install this.  I can guarantee nothing at all, but it works on my systems.

foo2zjs.zip

Foo2zjs is a foomatic printer driver database. This is an updated version of the foo2jzs database that is installed with Xandros 3 (this version includes support for the HP LaserJet 2600n, network printer).  You will need to uninstall the foo2zjs database already installed on your X3 system before you install this.  For more information, the source is included (with the INSTALL and README files), and you can go to http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/

If it gives you any problems, please send me an Email and we can work on the problem at http://forums.xandros.com

gimpshop_2.2.11-1_i386.zip

1Gimpshop is a version of the Gimp (2.2.11) that has been modified to more closely mimic the menu structure and tool layout of Adobe's Photoshop.  For more information see:

http://plasticbugs.com/?page_id-294


If you are happy with the Gimp the way it is, I don't recommend this as an upgrade/update.  This really is for folks who are making the switch from Adobe Photoshop to the Gimp.

  • This is the same package as here (for Xandros 3).
  • Ensure you have Xandros Unsupported repositories checked in XN
  • I also have the following repository enabled in my Xandros 4.1 setup:

    deb http://mirror.home-dn.net/debian-multimedia sarge main

  • It does work.  Please don't hesitate to Email me if you encounter problems!

23653-formatconverter0.7.0.amarokscript.tar.bz2

Amarok Script - (install from Script Manager in the Tools menu)
Changes the audio format of all songs in the current plalist.  This script is currently in beta.  Supported formats for both input and output are .flac, .mp3, .ogg, .wav, .mpc, and .m4a.  Also, .wma, .ra, and .mp4 are accepted as input files (and can be converted to other formats).

Requires
lame -- for .mp3 in and out
flac -- for .flac in and out
oggenc -- for .ogg out
oggdec -- for .ogg in
mppenc -- for .mpc out
mppdec -- for .mpc in
mplayler -- for .wma or .ra in  
...you can get mplayer for X3 and X4 on this page...
faad -- for .mp4/.m4a in
faac -- for .m4a out

I downloaded it here:
NOTE:  Until I can get soundKonverter to make under Xandros 4, this is the best (easiest) way I could find for converting the *.WMA files my digital voice recorder creates.  I have tested it converting a 2.5-hour WMA file to MP3 and OGG.  So far, so good.
