I just noticed a problem with OpenVPN. My Client was not able to resolute Hostnames in the remote network. That was because the VPN-Server acts as DHCP for the Client and need an option to push the DNS-Server to the Clients.

File Encryption using LUKS
LUKS (Linux Unified Key Setup) is a part of dm-crypt which provides encryption for block devices by the Linux Kernel. It is possible to encrypt a whole hard drive or a container which can be stored in a native file system containing unencrypted files.
You will learn how to create such an encrypted container here. Some common scenarios could be to store the container on an cloud service such as (Dropbox, Google Drive, Own Cloud and co.) or to store sensible data own your own devices or at your workplace.
Preload – Speed up your Linux
Preadload is a daemon that runs in background of your system just as every daemon does.
This daemon creates statistics of your process and application usage. And that is all that is need for speeding up the start of applications by about 50%.
Preload is one of the applications i usually install right after setting up a new desktop distribution. Die effect on the response time of a system is clearly observable. Everything goes faster an makes much more fun

Start applications minimized
If you want to start applications minimized you can use kstart:
kstart --iconify APPLICATION
Notice that kstart is a KDE-Application and i am not sure if this will work with any other window-manager then Kwin. I think it will not.
Kstart has much more options. Have a look at:
kstart --help
