According to [Only Ubuntu](http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2008/05/auto-mounting-internal-drives-in-ubuntu.html), to
|
||||
enable auto-mounting of internal drives on bootup, edit the file `/etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi` and change
|
||||
the line
|
||||
|
||||
<merge key="storage.automount_enabled_hint" type="bool">false</merge>
|
||||
|
||||
to this:
|
||||
|
||||
<merge key="storage.automount_enabled_hint" type="bool">true</merge>
|
||||
|
||||
From now on, internal drives should appear on your Desktop.

At work we have the [Kerio Mailserver](http://www.kerio.com/mailserver) Appliance for VMware which is based on Fedora
|
||||
Core 6. Since they use the ugly `[yum](http://yum.baseurl.org/)`, I decided to install `[apt-rpm](http://apt-rpm.org/)`.
|
||||
I'm still missing something like `[aptitude](http://algebraicthunk.net/~dburrows/projects/aptitude/)`, but it is okay now.
|
||||
|
||||
`apt-rpm` expects some `*.list` files in the `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/` directory - as does the Ubuntu `apt-get`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Repositories
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
Since I had some time to find all repos, here's ist an overview:
|
||||
|
||||
* **os.list** (pre-installed, shortened to the neccessary ones)
|
||||
|
||||
# Name: Operating system and updates
|
||||
|
||||
### Fedora Core Linux
|
||||
#repomd http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/$(VERSION)/$(ARCH)/core
|
||||
#repomd http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/$(VERSION)/$(ARCH)/updates
|
||||
rpm http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/$(VERSION)/$(ARCH) core updates
|
||||
|
||||
#offline: repomd http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/ fedora/linux/core/$(VERSION)/$(ARCH)/os/
|
||||
repomd http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/ fedora/linux/extras/$(VERSION)/$(ARCH)/
|
||||
#offline: repomd http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/ fedora/linux/core/updates/$(VERSION)/$(ARCH)/</code>
|
||||
|
||||
* **dries.list**
|
||||
|
||||
# Name: Dries Repository
|
||||
|
||||
#repomd http://ftp.belnet.be/packages/dries.ulyssis.org/fedora/linux/$(VERSION)/$(ARCH)/dries
|
||||
rpm http://apt.sw.be fedora/$(VERSION)/en/$(ARCH) dries</code>
|
||||
|
||||
* **freshrpms.list**
|
||||
|
||||
# Name: freshRPMs
|
||||
|
||||
# core and updates are used in os.list
|
||||
rpm http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/$(VERSION)/$(ARCH) extras freshrpms</code>
|
||||
|
||||
* **livna.list**
|
||||
|
||||
# Name: livna
|
||||
|
||||
repomd http://rpm.livna.org fedora/$(VERSION)/$(ARCH)
|
||||
repomd http://rpm.livna.org fedora/testing/$(VERSION)/$(ARCH)</code>
|
||||
|
||||
* **remi.list**
|
||||
|
||||
# Name: Les RPM de Remi
|
||||
|
||||
repomd http://rpms.famillecollet.com fc$(VERSION).$(ARCH)</code>
|
||||
|
||||
The difference between the **`rpm`** and the **`repomd`** is simple: A `repomd` points to a single repository whereas
|
||||
`rpm` can point to different in one line. Example:
|
||||
|
||||
repomd http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/$(VERSION)/$(ARCH)/core
|
||||
repomd http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/$(VERSION)/$(ARCH)/updates
|
||||
|
||||
is exactly the same as
|
||||
|
||||
rpm http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/$(VERSION)/$(ARCH) core updates
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Notice the two last words in the last example. The resemble the two directories of the two `repomd` statements. You
|
||||
know it is a repository if the path contains a folder `repodata`, such as [this one](http://ayo.freshrpms.net/fedora/linux/6/i386/core/repodata).
|
||||
|
||||
Knowing that, you can find more Repos using [Google](http://google.com/search?q=allinurl%3A+i386+repodata+repomd+%2B6+fc+OR+fedora) with an
|
||||
[advanced query](http://letmegooglethatforyou.com/?q=allinurl%3A+i386+repodata+repomd+%2B6+fc+OR+fedora).

If you get the following error while updating the package list:
|
||||
|
||||
W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net jaunty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 632D16BB0C713DA6
|
||||
|
||||
You need to manually update the key. The key-ID is the last 8 digits of the key, in this case: *0c713da6*.
|
||||
|
||||
Now fetch the key from the Ubuntu keyserver:
|
||||
|
||||
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 0c713da6
|
||||
|
||||
And finally add the new key to the apt-keyring:
|
||||
|
||||
gpg --export --armor 0c713da6 | sudo apt-key add -
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
You can even automate this a bit with the following shell script:
|
||||
|
||||
{% highlight bash %}
|
||||
#!/bin/bash
|
||||
KEYID=${1:-8}
|
||||
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv $KEYID
|
||||
gpg --export --armor $KEYID | sudo apt-key add -
|
||||
{% endhighlight %}
|
||||
|
||||
This will only use the last 8 digits of the first parameter as KEYID. So you can even call it with the full 16 digits.

To automount FUSE mounts, there's a nice tool called [afuse](http://afuse.sourceforge.net/).

To create ASCII art or just some colorful things with lots of ANSI color codes, there's the package
|
||||
[aewan](apt://aewan) - [Ascii-art Editor Without A Name](http://aewan.sf.net/).
|
||||
|
||||
aewan itself saves the files in an own format. But there's the tool `aecat` which lets you cat those files - and thus
|
||||
you can also write the output into another file to get a normal file with ANSI codes which can be shown using the
|
||||
normal `cat`.
|
||||
|
||||
aecat colorful.aew > colorful.txt

The default soundcard to be used with ALSA is that with the index 0 in `/proc/asound/cards`. Usually this is the first
|
||||
found sound device.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to change this order, you have to find out the name of the kernel module used for that card and then add
|
||||
the desired `index` to it in a modprobe file. I appended these lines to my `/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf`:
|
||||
|
||||
options snd-hda-intel index=-2
|
||||
options snd-usb-audio index=0
|
||||
|
||||
This way, the internal sound card (which was the primary one) now gets some other index and the USB mini speakers get
|
||||
the index 0 and therefore become the new default device for any sounds.

One huge problem in a standard Ubuntu install is that not all programs are actually using the PulseAudio daemon but
|
||||
instead still use ALSA. This is especially true with the [flashplugin](apt://flashplugin-installer). Since PulseAudio
|
||||
and ALSA can't use the hardware device at the same time, they block each other which leads to hangs and maybe even
|
||||
crashes of programs (e.g. browser).
|
||||
|
||||
The fix is relatively easy and consists of telling ALSA to use its `pulse` plugin for output - which routes the sound
|
||||
to PulseAudio instead of directly to hardware. It is explained at [pulseaudio.org](http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup#ALSAApplications).
|
||||
|
||||
Basically you only have to create a file `/etc/asound.conf` with these few lines:
|
||||
|
||||
~~~
|
||||
pcm.!default {
|
||||
type pulse
|
||||
}
|
||||
ctl.!default {
|
||||
type pulse
|
||||
}
|
||||
~~~
|
||||
|
||||
This tells all ALSA apps to use the PulseAudio output by default. Some notes may also be found on [wiki.ubuntu.com](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio).
|
||||
|
||||
You should also check that you have installed [libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio](apt://libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio) instead of the `-alsa` one.

If you wish to change the behavior upon pushing e.g. the power button, you can edit the config files located in
|
||||
`/etc/acpi/events/`. To disable the power button, you would edit the file `powerbtn` there and change the `action` line
|
||||
to:
|
||||
|
||||
{% highlight ini %}
|
||||
action=/bin/true
|
||||
{% endhighlight %}

[apt-cacher](apt://apt-cacher) and [apt-cacher-ng](apt://apt-cacher-ng) both act as a proxy between `apt-get` or
|
||||
`aptitude` and the Debian repositories. It stores the packages upon first request and loads them from cache on further
|
||||
ones. If you have 2 or more Ubuntu PCs in your network, you can save a massive amount of bandwidth with it.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Installation
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install the package [apt-cacher](apt://apt-cacher) or [apt-cacher-ng](apt://apt-cacher-ng)
|
||||
1. Make sure it is running (sometimes you might have to edit a file `/etc/default/apt-cacher` or
|
||||
`/etc/default/apt-cacher-ng` to enable it)
|
||||
1. Now do the following on **ALL PCs** in your network - including the one with `apt-cacher(-ng)` installed:
|
||||
* Create a file `/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01proxy` with the following contents: (replace the IP by the IP of the PC with
|
||||
`apt-cacher(-ng)` installed)
|
||||
|
||||
Acquire::http::Proxy "http://192.168.0.1:3142";
|
||||
|
||||
* Create a file `/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99clean` with the following contents: (this will keep the local apt-cache clean)
|
||||
|
||||
DPkg::Post-Invoke {"/usr/bin/find /var/cache/apt/archives/ -type f -mtime 2 -name *.deb -exec /bin/rm -f {} \; || true";};
|
||||
|
||||
That was it. All packages will be cached on the `apt-cacher(-ng)`-PC and the local caches will be kept clean.
