The current documentation describes a proposal for version 4 of the operating system. Contents 1 Aurora Documentation, Release 0.2.0 2 Contents CHAPTER 1 Audience This project files and the accompanying documentation are intended for developers of gNewSense 4. These files are probably not suited to end users of gNewSense. They will, however, be able to use Aurora as the default theme on the system if it is accepted. External links: Source files| Downloads| Report issues 3 Aurora Documentation, Release 0.2.0 4 Chapter 1. Audience CHAPTER 2 Contents 2.1 Overview gNewSense is an operating system based on Debian. The upcoming version of gNewSense, version 4, will be based on Debian 7, also known as Wheezy. As a derivative, gNewSense needs to modify some components of the system so that they look like gNewSense and refer to gNewSense resources instead of Debian’s. Aurora is a visual theme for gNewSense made to replace Debian’s default appearance. It includes wallpapers, back- ground images for different components of the system, an icon theme and themes for different desktop environments such as GNOME, KDE and Xfce. 2.1.1 System installer 2.1.2 Boot loader 2.1.3 Desktop themes 2.2 Installation Download and install Aurora’s packages: • aurora-backgrounds_0.2.0-1_all.deb • aurora-icon-theme_0.2.0-1_all.deb • gnome-aurora-theme_0.2.0-1_all.deb • grub-aurora-theme_0.2.0-1_all.deb Or download the source tarball if you prefer to install the files manually.

    Author: Angelo Fraietta ([email protected]) Address: PO Box 859, Hamilton NSW, 2303 Submission Category: Paper – Abstract reviewed Title: “Smart budgeting for a Smart Controller” Keywords: Algorithmic Composition; MIDI Controllers; Recycled Hardware; Software In 1998, I was involved in two collaborative projects -- the “Laser Harp1” and the “Virtual Drum Kit”2 -- where performers controlled MIDI sound engines using MAX and analogue to MIDI converters. In both cases, analogue signals were converted into MIDI messages, manipulated with an algorithm through MAX, converted back to MIDI, and finally sent to an external sound engine. At least three separate pieces of equipment3 were required for a performance; each introducing associated software and hardware costs, physical space requirements, and latency in performance. Space restrictions could be reduced by using alternative control voltage (CV) to MIDI converters, such as the I- Cube or some other custom device; however, these devices still require the use of an algorithmic or programmable logic control (PLC) software package on a host computer in order to execute all but the simplest of algorithms or patches. Although one could use a laptop computer, “weight and size isn't everything when it comes to stage (or touring) fitness. The plastic casing and the display on hinges sure don't encourage one to drop the PB [Power Book] from a table.”4 Ultimately, some sort of stand-alone device or “Smart 1 Alex Cockburn.

  • Lab Worksheet 13 Boot Process and GRUB
    CST8207: GNU/Linux Operating Systems I Lab Worksheet 13 Boot Process and GRUB This is Lab Worksheet 13 - not an Assignment This Lab Worksheet contains some practical examples that will prepare you to complete your Assignments. You do not have to hand in this Lab Worksheet. Make sure you complete the separate Assignments on time. Quizzes and tests may refer to work done in this Lab Worksheet; save your answers. Before you get started - REMEMBER TO READ ALL THE WORDS You must have your own Fedora 12 virtual machine (with root permissions) running to do this lab. You cannot do the lab on the Course Linux Server because you do not have root permissions on that machine. Boot Process and GRUB 1 Commands, topics, and features covered Use the on-line help (man command) for the commands listed below for more information. The Class Notes also cover the use of these commands and the syntax of GRUB pathnames. ➢ df – display space available (optionally inodes available) on all mounted file systems ➢ grub – GRand Unified Bootloader (legacy version 0.9x - not the Version 2 GRUB numbered 1.9x) The man page is useless. See this instead: http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/grub.html ➢ mount – display a list of all mounted file systems, including devices, types, and mount points ➢ uname – display system name, kernel release and version number, machine, processor, and O/S type ➢ /etc/inittab – documentation on Run Levels; contains the default Run Level ➢ /boot/grub/ – directory containing GRUB configuration files, especially the main GRUB configuration file named (in legacy GRUB 0.9x) grub.conf or menu.lst ➢ /proc/cmdline – a copy of whatever was on the GRUB kernel line at boot time 2 Use your host O/S - do snapshot - use root - need second disk • Since this lab requires you to reboot your Linux virtual machine multiple times, you will find it easier to open this lab document in Open/Libre Office in your Windows host O/S, not inside Fedora where you will have to keep closing it to reboot (and can't read it while you are doing so).

  • Installation Et Configuration De Debian GNU/Hurd
    Installation et configuration de Debian GNU/Hurd Philip Charles, Neal Walfield, HurdFR 1 Introduction « Le Hurd, GNU, GNU/Hurd... Des mots qui reviennent souvent, un système dont on parle beaucoup mais qu’on voit rarement. Vous voulez essayer et juger par vous-même ? Ce guide est fait pour vous. Seulement, soyez prévenu : installer un système expérimental n’est pas de tout repos !» Présentation de l’installation Il existe principalement deux méthodes d’installation de Debian GNU/Hurd : la méthode d’installation croisée (crosshurd) depuis Debian GNU/Linux, et l’installation depuis les CDs. crosshurd crosshurd permet aux utilisateurs de Debian GNU/Linux d’installer facilement et rapidement un système Debian GNU/Hurd sur leur ordinateur (dual-boot). Les avantages de cette solution : – Très rapide : elle ne nécessite pas de graver de CD, de rebooter pour installer, toute la préparation peut se faire sur son système Debian habituel ; – Toujours à jour : puisque crosshurd va télécharger automatiquement les paquets dont il a besoin, vous aurez dès le début la dernière version. Mais elle n’est pas sans inconvénients : – Elle nécessite une installation fonctionnelle de Debian GNU/Linux sur le poste où vous installez Debian GNU/Hurd ;1 – Elle nécessite une connexion rapide : vous devez télécharger l’ensemble des paquets de base, ce qui représente plusieurs dizaines de MiB. Tous les paquets additionnels pourront être installés depuis les CDs ou téléchargés ; – Elle ne fonctionne pas tout le temps : contrairement aux CDs qui représentent un instant t des paquets où l’ensemble est jugé fonctionnel, il arrive que crosshurd ne fonctionne pas pendant quelques jours.

  • Operating Systems Learning Environment with Vmware
    Operating Systems Learning Environment with VMware Akalanka Mailewa and Jayantha Herath Department of Computer Science St. Cloud State University St. Cloud, Minnesota 56301 [email protected] [email protected] Abstract There is both local and global need for high-quality trained system programmers with the ability to learn in a short period of time and stay current with the recent advances and tools available in the cyber infrastructure. Computing programs can help to meet this demand by redesigning their operating systems courses and allowing more students to succeed at the entry level. Authors have developed a VMware based operating systems course to enhance the computing curriculum. Students download tools available in cyber infrastructure to install and use several virtual operating systems and make changes to internals. Both the public and private sectors will benefit with the greater number of highly-skilled trained system programmers. To assess and evaluate the changes made authors distributed the course modules among our students. This paper describes authors’ experience in developing the project based active operating systems learning environment. 1 Introduction We identified many deficiencies in teaching a traditional lecture based operating systems class and the importance of transforming the course into a project based learning environment. The lecture based environment is relatively passive. An effective OS class could provide links to connect other courses such as computer architecture, digital design, distributed systems, security, networking, parallel computing in the curriculum, and importantly the needs of industry. Successful application of active learning with rapidly changing tools available in the cyber infrastructure in the learning process is a way to remove the deficiencies.
