KMyGLCubeSaver 1.0a(KDE Screensaver)
This is an OpenGL screensaver for KDE4, which shows a rotating cube whose faces are shown on one or more images contained in a directory.
KMyGLCubeSaver supports images with the extension *. jpg *. bmp *. png *. jpg *. gif
They must be included in the hidden directory $HOME/.myglcubesaver. This directory is created automatically.
In the setup window, you can lock the rotation of the cube around one or more axes, modify the time to change the image and choose whether you want to see the images sequentially or randomly.

Nepomuk Virtuoso Converter 1.1(KDE Other Utility)
With the release of KDE SC 4.4 Nepomuk will depend on Virtuoso for data storage. Officially only 6.1.0 and higher will be supported.
Since, however, many people already tested Nepomuk in KDE SC 4.4 with Virtuoso 5.0.12 and the database format changed significantly we provide this conversation tool.
Simply start it after installing Virtuoso 6.1.0 and let it do the conversion automatically.
Distribution packagers are encouraged to run the converter before starting Nepomuk with the --auto parameter.
Get Virtuoso 6.1.0 from http://sourceforge.net/projects/virtuoso/files/
changelog:
1.1
* The converter now makes sure that Nepomuk is disabled.
* Full text indexing is now enabled in the new DB. This way there is no need to wait for Virtuoso to update the index once Nepomuk is started.
* Updated Virtuoso 5 to 5.0.13.
