Un-installed applications (by uninstall date):

[YYYY-MM-DD] Application (package) [YYYY-MM-DD] uninstalled (reason)

Simple Settings

  • [2009-10-19] - Enabled proprietary video device driver NVIDIA (version 280).
  • [2013-05-18] - Enable audio head-phone (see [5]). Edit file /usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/paths/analog-output-headphones.conf as follows:
[Element Speaker]
switch = on
volume = ignore
  • Printer — add Canon network printer (select IPP network printer via DNS-SD for protocol).
    • Set Color Model to CMYK

Detailed System Settings

1st install

  • INSTALL LOG

File System

  • To be completed

Network

Preferences

  • To be completed

Users

  • Added to group users (for write access to mnemosyne):
    mich

Detailed Application Settings

Screensaver

  • gnome-screensaver does not work anymore. It simply show a black screen
  • Use xscreensaver instead, and select glslideshow for a slideshow.
  • UPDATE ISSUES — viewer used by glslideshow maintains a cache at ~/tmp/.xscreensaver-getimage.cache. Delete that file when updating the set of images in the slideshow.

Using xscreensaver without OpenGL

  • Package chbg does not exist anymore.
  • I could build package xv, but it does nothing under xscreensaver.
  • Use package qiv. Add the following line in .xscreensaver:
  qiv -s -r -S -d 10  -f -u -l -t -i      \
          $HOME/Slideshow               \n\
  • Select qiv as screensaver.

Apparently qiv does not work well with sub-folders. I use the following script (autoln): 

#! /bin/bash
#
# Usage: autoln /path/to/file /path/to/second/file [...]
#
#        will create the following symbolic links:
#
#        _path_to_file         --> /path/to/file
#        _path_to_second_file  --> /path/to/second/file

while [ -n "$1" ]; do
    target="$1"
    symlink=${target//\//_}
    ln -ns "$target" "$symlink"
    shift
done

In the command line: 

find -L /home/mich/Slideshow -type f -print0  | xargs -0 autoln

Remote support

  • autonoekeon.sh is run automatically at logon:
#! /bin/bash

autossh -M 0 -f -N -n -q -R 54895:localhost:22 noekeon
To connect, first setup port forwarding, then connect via localhost:
autossh -M 0 -f -N -n -q -L 22221:localhost:54895 noekeon
ssh mike@localhost -p 22221
  • Script on desktop to setup vnc remote (vnctunnelnoekeon):
#! /bin/bash

# Save current stdout / stderr
exec 3>&1
exec 4>&2

# Redirect stdout / stderr
exec > >(tee /tmp/stdout.tmp)
exec 2> >(tee /tmp/stderr.tmp >&2)

# Deleting current .ssh/known_hosts
echo "Deleting current .ssh/known_hosts"
rm .ssh/known_hosts

# Open a vncserver
echo "Opening a virtual desktop for remote desktop sharing..."
vnc4server :1 -geometry 1440x900 -depth 8 -rfbport 5901

# TRAP EXIT --> Will remove port forwarding and kill the VNC server
trap "upnpc -d 12322 TCP; vnc4server -kill :1; rm /tmp/vnctunnelnoekeon-tail-f.tmp" EXIT

ssh -f -n -R12301:localhost:5901 -R12322:localhost:22 noekeon sleep 300
