advanced filesystem features while focusing on fault
tolerance, repair, and easy administration. The btrfs
filesystem is designed to support the requirement of high
performance and large storage servers.

7. Garuda GNOME(environment)
GNOME is a modern desktop environment
which is both clean and beautiful. It is focused
on ease of use.

8. GNOME
is a free and open-source desktop environment for Unix-like operating systems. GNOME was
originally an acronym for GNU Network Object Model Environment, but the acronym was dropped
because it no longer reflected the vision of the GNOME project.gnome is developed by The “GNOME
Project” which is composed of both volunteers and paid contributors, the largest corporate contributor
being Red Hat.It is an international project that aims to develop software frameworks for the
development of software, to program end-user applications based on these frameworks, and to
coordinate efforts for internationalization and localization and accessibility of that software.

9. GNOME
Basically,Gnome have also 4 subparts as follows:
➔ GNOME 1
➔ GNOME 2
➔ GNOME 3
➔ GNOME 4

10. GNOME 1
GNOME was started on 15 August 1997 by “Miguel de Icaza” and
“Federico Mena” as a free software project to develop a desktop
environment and applications for it.It was founded in part because K
Desktop Environment, which was growing in popularity, relied on the
Qt widget toolkit which used a proprietary software license until
version 2.0 (June 1999).In place of Qt, GTK (GNOME Toolkit, at that
time called GIMP Toolkit) was chosen as the base of GNOME. GTK
uses the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL), a free
software license that allows software linking to it to use a much wider
set of licenses, including proprietary software licenses.GNOME itself
is licensed under the LGPL for its libraries, and the GNU General
Public License (GPL) for its applications.

11. GNOME 2
The desktop has a launcher menu for quick access to installed programs and file locations; open windows may
be accessed by a taskbar along the bottom of the screen, and the top-right corner features a notification area for
programs to display notices while running in the background. However, these features can be moved to almost
any position or orientation the user desires, replaced with other functions or removed altogether.
