Out-of-the-box configuration
Do the following (as root) to help make Ubuntu less terrible:
# setup the timezone dpkg-reconfigure tzdata # use bash you idiot dpkg-reconfigure -plow dash # install daemons apt-get install openssh-server samba # install libraries apt-get install libncurses5-dev # install man pages apt-get install manpages-posix manpages-posix-dev # c++ toolchain apt-get install g++ # install 32-bit libs and headers (if on a 64-bit host) apt-get install ia32-libs libc6-dev-i386 # install tools apt-get install subversion git-core tree minicom shed valgrind lzop # install dos2unix & unix2dos apt-get install tofrodos ln -s /usr/bin/fromdos /usr/bin/dos2unix ln -s /usr/bin/todos /usr/bin/unix2dos # install nfs sudo apt-get install nfs-common # sort out the 'ohh.. did you mean this?' dpkg -r command-not-found command-not-found-data # sort out 'sudo' echo "attie ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL" >> /etc/sudoers # stop X sed -i -r "s/(stop on runlevel \[0)(16\])/\12\2/" /etc/init/gdm.conf
And if you will be using U-Boot:
apt-get install uboot-mkimage
Do the following (as your user)
# generate an SSH key pair ssh-keygen # remove the guff rm -rdf ~/Desktop/ ~/Documents/ ~/Music/ ~/Pictures/ ~/Public/ ~/Templates/ ~/Videos/ ~/examples.desktop
Also see bashrc, samba, Xresources
Other useful package names
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| mysql-server | MySQL Server |
| libmysqlclient-dev | MySQL CLI tools |
| libapache2-mod-fastcgi | Apache FastCGI module |
| python-dev | Python development files |
Disabling Automounting
To enable or disable automount open a terminal and type gconf-editor followed by the [Enter] key.
Browse to /apps/nautilus/preferences/.
The media_automount key controls whether to automatically mount media. If set to true, then Nautilus will automatically mount media such as user-visible hard disks and removable media on start-up and media insertion.
There is another key media_automount_open. This controls whether to automatically open a folder for automounted media. This key can also be set in the Nautilus (file manager) window. From the Edit menu in Nautilus select Preferences and then select the Media tab.
If set to true, then Nautilus will automatically open a folder when media is automounted. This only applies to media where no known x-content/* type was detected; for media where a known x-content type is detected, the user configurable action will be taken instead.
Apache (for development use ONLY)
sudo tasksel install lamp-server
Important config files are:
-
/etc/apache2/apache2.conf -
/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/*
Checking the Version
lsb_release -aConfiguring System Services
I like sysv-rc-conf. Simples
Python Libraries
Run as root:
sudo apt-get install python-cheetah
Serial Console
/etc/init/ttyS0.conf
# ttyS0 - getty # # This service maintains a getty on ttyS0 from the point the system is # started until it is shut down again. start on stopped rc or RUNLEVEL=[2345] stop on runlevel [!2345] respawn exec /sbin/getty -L 115200 ttyS0 vt102
