How Bootable Xubuntu Linux OS USB Flash Drive Can Improve Your Productivity and Mobility bluewhaleseo.com http://www.bluewhaleseo.com/blog/bootable-xubuntu-linux-os-usb-flash-drive- improve-productivity-mobility/ How bootable Xubuntu Linux OS USB flash drive can improve your productivity and mobility One day my laptop got broken so I had to find a quick solution of how to use information resources that I have available from any computer that I can get access to and even more – to do that in comfort, like from my own machine. Now I want to share my solution with you. This particular setup should be useful to students doing computing courses or for any IT person. However, should you check Ubuntu Software Center you will find a huge library of software that suits almost everyone. Storage device: 8GB USB stick (the faster the better) Operating system: Xubuntu 12.04 Desktop – “perfect for those who want the most out of their desktops, laptops and netbooks with a modern look and enough features for efficient, daily usage. It works well on older hardware too” Table of contents: 1. Create a bootable Xubuntu USB stick (Windows) 2. Add/Remove software on Xubuntu Live USB 3. Configuring the system Add new items to the panel (Optional) Add extra repositories Setting up Sylpheed e-mail client Setting up Pidgin IM client 4. Gallery 5. Conclusion Create a bootable Xubuntu USB stick (Windows) Download Xubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) i386 (32 bit) desktop edition from a mirror in a country close to you Download the latest version of Universal USB Installer Plug in your USB drive. WARNING: Make sure you don’t have any important data on your USB drive as they will be destroyed! Execute Universal USB Installer file and select Xubuntu 12.04 Desktop edition from the top drop-down list Use a Browse button to choose Xubuntu image you just downloaded (in my case it is called xubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso) Select the letter of your USB flash drive and use the slider at the bottom to adjust the size of your home folder where you will keep your files. By default you can use maximum 4GB for your home directory on your USB drive. This is because home directory is a single casper-rw file, which as any other file can not exceed 4GB limit on FAT32 system. For this reason 8GB USB stick is perfect for what we want to achieve and after the process you still will have over 2,5GB free space Click Create > Yes to create a bootable Linux USB flash drive. When process is done click Close Now it’s time to boot our PC from USB drive we just created. Instructions how to boot from DVD/USB/LAN/etc. can be found on a user’s manual of your machine or just google for it. But most of the time it is enough to follow short instructions during the start up of the machine, for example, “ESC – Boot Menu”, “F12 – Boot Device” and so on. Back to Table of Contents Add/Remove software on Xubuntu Live USB It is very likely that when your Xubuntu desktop boots up for the first time you will see “Restricted drivers available” warning. Just click on it and activate drivers that are shown on a list. Since you have your home directory on the USB drive all system/program changes will be saved on it so you don’t need to set up your desktop everytime it boots. Although you might need to activate/install an extra drivers for other machines/devices you are going to use in the future. From now on you are free to set up your system in any way you like or to use one of HowtoForge’s articles to do that, but you also might like the way I set it up, so please have a closer look You can use either Ubuntu Software Center, Synaptic Package Manager from top menu or Terminal from bottom panel to add/remove software. I’ll start from removing software that I don’t like or don’t find it useful to me. firefox – web browser thunderbird – email client Games*, aisleriot – games abiword – word processor gnumeric – spreadsheet orage – a calendar for the Xfce4 desktop environment ristretto – picture viewer leafpad – text editor onboard – on-screen keyboard xfburn – CD/DVD burner xchat – IRC client parole – media player sudo apt-get remove firefox* thunderbird Games* aisleriot abiword gnumeric orage ristretto leafpad onboard xfburn xchat parole Update the system sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade By now you should have ~3.5GB of free space available. Here is the list of software that I’m adding. Depending on your requirements you may want to install different packages or perhaps go for smaller sets to save disk space. It’s up to you really. chromium-browser – web browser emacs – text editor (notepad++ alternative) mc – file manager sylpheed – e-mail client (use IMAP to save disk space) filezilla – FTP client eclipse – a universal tool set for development openjdk-jre-7 – Java Runtime Environment 1.7 libreoffice-* – LibreOffice office suite vlc – media player flashplugin-installer – Adobe Flash Player plugin xubuntu-restricted-extras – various codecs, etc. ttf-mscorefonts-installer – Microsoft TrueType core fonts xfce4-fsguard-plugin – filesystem monitor (Xfce4) ntp – Network Time Protocol (NTP server) bleachbit – frees space and maintains privacy (CCleaner alternative) sudo apt-get install chromium-browser emacs mc sylpheed filezilla eclipse openjdk-7-jre libreoffice vlc flashplugin-installer xubuntu- restricted-extras ttf-mscorefonts-installer xfce4-fsguard-plugin libreoffice-writer libreoffice-calc libreoffice-impress ntp bleachbit Back to Table of Contents Configuring the system Add new items to the panel (for example, disk usage monitor) To add (or remove) an item to the panel right click on a panel (it can be top or bottom one) and select Panel>Add New Items… Pick any item that you are interested in from a list. In our case it is Free Space Checker plugin (xfce4-fsguard-plugin). Click Add and Close if you are done. Now you should see new item on your panel and if you installed Free Space Checker, you will see how much of free space you have for your documents. Back to Table of Contents (Optional) Add extra repositories (for Skype, Adobe Reader and other applications not (Optional) Add extra repositories (for Skype, Adobe Reader and other applications not included in standart Ubuntu repositories) Adding Medibuntu repository sudo -E wget --output- document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/$(lsb_release -cs).list && sudo apt-get --quiet update && sudo apt-get --yes --quiet --allow- unauthenticated install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get --quiet update sudo update-apt-xapian-index We have to make sure we have a text editor in order to edit system configuration files.

From now on you can accomplish much more tasks using almost any PC, laptop or netbook around you.

  • Accesso Alle Macchine Virtuali in Lab Vela
    Accesso alle Macchine Virtuali in Lab In tutti i Lab del camous esiste la possibilita' di usare: 1. Una macchina virtuale Linux Light Ubuntu 20.04.03, che sfrutta il disco locale del PC ed espone un solo utente: studente con password studente. Percio' tutti gli studenti che accedono ad un certo PC ed usano quella macchina virtuale hanno la stessa home directory e scrivono sugli stessi file che rimangono solo su quel PC. L'utente PUO' usare i diritti di amministratore di sistema mediante il comando sudo. 2. Una macchina virtuale Linux Light Ubuntu 20.04.03 personalizzata per ciascuno studente e la cui immagine e' salvata su un server di storage remoto. Quando un utente autenticato ([email protected]) fa partire questa macchina Virtuale LUbuntu, viene caricata dallo storage centrale un immagine del disco esclusivamente per quell'utente specifico. I file modificati dall'utente vengono salvati nella sua immagine sullo storage centrale. L'immagine per quell'utente viene utilizzata anche se l'utente usa un PC diverso. L'utente nella VM è studente con password studente ed HA i diritti di amministratore di sistema mediante il comando sudo. Entrambe le macchine virtuali usano, per ora, l'hypervisor vmware. • All'inizio useremo la macchina virtuale LUbuntu che salva i file sul disco locale, per poterla usare qualora accadesse un fault delle macchine virtuali personalizzate. • Dalla prossima lezione useremo la macchina virtuale LUbuntu che salva le immagini personalizzate in un server remoto. Avviare VM LUBUNTU in Locale (1) Se la macchina fisica è spenta occorre accenderla.

  • Installing Airtime and Icecast Server on Ubuntu Server
    Installing Airtime and Icecast server on Ubuntu Server Base system Install 32-bit Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS (“Lucid”). Latest version is 10.04.3 Just do a minimum installation. You may want to add the openssh package for remote access, but other than that don't install any package sets during server installation. Update the system after installation, and install any editors or utilities you like to have available. Network setup Skip this section if using DHCP. Edit /etc/network/interfaces to provide static IP settings. For example: # The primary network interface auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static ← change from iface eth0 inet dhcp address 10.224.1.208 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 10.224.1.1 Then restart the interface (or reboot): ifdown eth0 ifup eth0 Install Icecast Icecast is available in the Ubuntu repositories, so installation is just: apt-get install icecast2 When you install Airtime, the Icecast configuration files will be replaced, so you can skip the following unless you want to use Icecast without Airtime. Check the Icecast configuration file /etc/icecast2/icecast.xml and note or change the default passwords. To have the icecast server start at system boot, edit /etc/default/icecast2 and set ENABLE=true. Install Airtime Airtime is a Debian package and relies on the gdebi installer program, which is not part of the default Ubuntu server installation. So install this first: apt-get install gdebi Then download the Airtime installer package: wget http://apt.sourcefabric.org/mics/airtime-easy-setup.deb Use gdebi to install the installer package (which adds some repositories and helper scripts to your system) gdebi airtime-easy-setup.deb Now update the package list and install airtime: apt-get update apt-get install airtime Source clients Ices The ices2 client that handles ogg-vorbis streaming is in the Ubuntu repository.
