Application (package) [YYYY-MM-DD] Update
Additional configuration settings

Un-installed applications (by uninstall date):

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

Simple Settings

  • SUDO - keep environment variable http_proxy, https_proxy (to keep proxy settings for apt-get etc)
  • SUDO - keep environment variable GREP_OPTIONS (keep grep options)
  • SUDO - keep environment variable DISPLAY, XAUTHORITY (avoid doing xhost local:root before launching X pgm)
  • SUDO - keep environment variable HOME (e.g. to keep git aliases and settings when using etckeeper)
Defaults        env_reset, env_keep="http_proxy https_proxy GREP_OPTIONS DISPLAY XAUTHORITY HOME"
  • SUDO - Allow truecrypt and rfkill w/o password:
ALL     ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/truecrypt
ALL     ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/rfkill
  • CRON - cron script for automatic backup of wikis on Noekeon's (see config files).
  • PROXY - script for automatic setup of network environment (proxy, ssh...) (see config files).
  • Security — Disabled control-alt-del in console as recommended in Ubuntu Server Guide. Comment out the following line in the file /etc/init/control-alt-delete.conf:
#exec shutdown -r now "Control-Alt-Delete pressed"
  • Add user www for synchronization of /data/www folder (localhost page):
sudo useradd -g www-data -G users -u 999 -s /bin/bash -m www
sudo passwd www
su - www
ssh-keygen                                         # Or copy .ssh/ copy from other www users

Detailed Application Settings

VirtualBox

  • See virtual machine configuration log.
  • Installed with apt (original version 4.2.8)
  • VirtualBox is launched as user root (because it seems that only the current user and root can access PulseAudio in a same X session — see [3])
  • Allow user beq06659 to launch VirtualBox through user root. Add to /etc/sudoers:
beq06659	ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/VirtualBox
  • Helper script to add to e.g. ~/bin :
#First allow user vbox to connect to X11
#xhost +SI:localuser:vbox
#sudo su vbox -c /usr/bin/VirtualBox&

#New config - run VirtualBox as root to allow sound
sudo /usr/bin/VirtualBox&
  • Create a launcher in ~/.local/share/applications/virtualbox-root.desktop
#!/usr/bin/env xdg-open
