Ubuntu

mmm, Kubuntu 9.10 64 bit (Why not? Flashplayer 64bit fairly – as in enough for me – stable )

first: sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade ; sudo apt-get install openssh-server

opera 10.01 from opera’s site (deb) ; flash 10 from : http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/64bit.html ( *.so to plugin dir and viola!)

java with : sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-fonts ( from http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-java-runtime-environment-jre-in-ubuntu-9-10-karmic.html )

and then some…

sudo apt-get mc htop nmap

edit ~/.bashrc uncomment alias ll=ls -l

Going to ubuntu from opensuse….

first: opera: (from: http://en.kioskea.net/faq/sujet-3788-installing-opera-10-under-ubuntu-9-04-jaunty)

sudo wget -O – http://deb.opera.com/archive.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo bash -c ‘echo “deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/ sid non-free ” > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opera.list’
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install opera

python unicode numeric

This should not have been so difficult!

>>> print unichr(234)
ê
>>> print unichr(235)
ë

as oneliner: python -c “print unichr(234)”

Linux golden rules

Use the tool that was made for the job eg: ntfs in Linux is as simple as ntfs-3g – it handles mount and fuse, no more race conditions with stale lockfiles(/etc/mtab~)
Simplicity is its power!! eg, lots of small simple tools to eventually do big things (thinking to big to fast?)
