Gryphon - OpenSUSE 11.0 - Configuration log

General Setup

First boot

  • Automatic configuration update ⇒ added NVIDIA repository + added auto update repository
  • YaST ⇒ Repositories ⇒ disabled DVD repository

File system

  • Mount sda5 to mnt/sda5
% su
% mkdir /mnt/sda5
% chmod 777 /mnt/sda5
% ln -s /mnt/sda5/home /home
% mv /srv /mnt/sda5/srv
% ln -s /mnt/sda5/srv /srv
  • Enable write access to user in group for NTFS mount (fmask=113,dmask=002 in /etc/fstab)
  • /etc/fstab
...

...
  • Installed package sdram.

YaST Repositories

Applications

Amarok

  • Amarok collection stored in MySQL (host: localhost, port: 3306, DB name: amarok, user: amarok)
  • To set up Amarok MySQL database (see Amarok MySQL HowTo):
% mysql -p -u root
mysql> CREATE DATABASE amarok;
mysql> USE amarok;
mysql> GRANT ALL ON amarok.* TO amarok@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'PASSWORD_CHANGE_ME';
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
  • Installed amarok-packman package (metapackage to install amarok from the packman repository).
  • Selected Xine engine (needed for crossfading).
    • → Now Amarok plays ogg in Gnome desktop too!
  • Crossfading: 0ms (crossfading 100ms handy for making gapless playback, but playback is sometimes jerky when enabled)
  • Fade-out: 1500ms (3500ms much too long)
  • Updated to xine-lib/1.1.15 (solve bug Amarok freeze at track change).

Amule

iplist

  • Installed iplist to deny spying peer. See Amule#iplist.
  • Lists:
    • level1.gz, ads-trackers-and-bad-pr0n.gz,edu.gz,spyware.gz (removed bogon.gz)

Apache 2

  • Configuration files in /etc/apache2.
  • Can be partly configured through YaST package yast2-http-server.
port: 80, interface: 127.0.0.1, 172.19.3.3, open port in firewall, Modules: PHP5.
  • /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
...
<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks     # because /srv is a symlink
    ...
</Directory>
...
  • /etc/apache2/default-server.conf
...
ServerName gryphon
ServerAdmin root@gryphon
  • Apache user is given in /etc/apache2/uid.conf

~/.dir_colors

~/.dir_colors is parsed by /etc/bash.bashrc on openSUSE.

# Configuration file for the color ls utility
#
# This file goes in the /etc directory, and must be world readable.
# You can copy this file to .dir_colors in your $HOME directory to override
# the system defaults.

# COLOR needs one of these arguments: 'tty' colorizes output to ttys, but not
# pipes. 'all' adds color characters to all output. 'none' shuts colorization
# off.
COLOR tty

# Extra command line options for ls go here.
# Basically these ones are:
