Three Apps That Keep Linux Squeaky Clean
Have you cleaned up your Linux installation lately? On its face, that question might wrongly mark me as a Linux newbie, much like a Linux newcomer asking about antivirus and antimalware software. But I am far from being a newbie to Linux. That said, three program packages designed to clean out your Linux dustbins can keep your OS working like new.
I admit that sounds like a sales pitch hawking some must-have maintenance tool for Microsoft Windows. But BleachBit, GtkOrphan and Startup Manager can give you more control over how your Linux distro behaves. These Linux apps can help you fix some missteps when an occasional package installation goes astray.
Let's face facts. As good as the Linux OS is, troublesome stuff sometimes happens. When it does, BleachBit and GtkOrphan can do a good job of taking out the trash and wiping away the cobwebs. This can go a long was to helping you solve small problems before they become major complications.
