After perhaps a hundred re-installs of Linux, countless hours reading Stack Overflow posts, and a roller coaster of triumph and failure, I’m proud to say that we’ve landed on an Ubuntu installation script that meets our needs and makes it trivial for us (or you!) to create a Codestarter laptop.

This blog post explains how to fix the no permissions error the Android Debugger displays when running the adb devices command Linux. The solutions presented here have been tested and found working on Ubuntu Lucid, but they should also work on other Ubuntu and Linux versions as well.

I’ve been working much more in Ubuntu Linux lately on my 2011 Macbook Pro, and the lack of integration for the trackpad has really been driving me crazy. The default synaptics driver does an ok job, but when it comes to things like gestures, the details make all the difference.

When you create a virtual hard disk in VirtualBox or VMware, you specify a maximum disk size. If you want more space on your virtual machine’s hard disk later, you’ll have to enlarge the virtual hard disk and partition.

When you’re running Ubuntu and updating your system frequently, there is a high chance that older kernels that are no longer needed are still installed on your system. Over time, if these older kernels are not removed, precious hard disk space may be wasted and your system’s performance may suffer.

A few years ago Dell began offering the Ubuntu distribution of Linux on its desktops and laptaps, but quietly dropped the option from its online store in 2010 (though it’s still possible to order certain machines with Ubuntu). Today at the Ubuntu Developers Summit Dell announced that it is dipping its toes into back into the Linux laptop market with Project Sputnik, a developer-centric laptop running Ubuntu 12.04 on Dell’s XPS13 Ultrabook hardware.

Juju is DevOps DistilledTM. Through the use of charms, juju provides you with shareable, re-usable, and repeatable expressions of DevOps best practices. You can use them unmodified, or easily change and connect them to fit your needs. Deploying a charm is similar to installing a package on Ubuntu: ask for it and it’s there, remove it and it’s completely gone.

This describes how to update Vagrant’s lucid64.box base box to the latest Guest Additions for VirtualBox 4.0.4. The only wrinkle was that the base box did not have the ppa:debfx/virtualbox repository configured.

"Ok, that Ubuntu issue is a known problem. It saves the assignment of MAC ethX using an udev rule. Have a look at /etc/udev/rules.d and you will find a file 70-persistent-net.rules there. You can savely remove this file. This file is auto-generated by /lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules. You can remove that file as well. From now on, the guest will no longer store the assignment between the MAC and ethX interface."

"The Ubuntu and Debian EC2 images published on http://alestic.com allow you to send in a startup script using the EC2 user-data parameter when you run a new instance. This functionality is useful for automating the installation and configuration of software on EC2 instances."
