集多系統優勢於一身 Remix OS桌面動手玩

在企業的IT環境內,過去以開放原始碼為主的Linux系列作業系統,僅能夠在一些伺服器的服務或網路設備與Windows抗衡,若是回到用戶端的部署內,Linux幾乎連邊都沾不上。但就在以Linux核心為基礎的Android系統於行動裝置市場崛起後,Windows Client未來將可能面臨Android Client的強大威脅,也就是從Mobile Device正式踏入PC的市場內,進而翻轉整個企業用戶端桌面的世界。

Android真有這項能耐嗎?這可以從技德(Jide)科技所推出的Remix OS看出一點端倪,所謂Remix OS其實由三位香港前Google工程師組成的開發團隊,以Android為基礎所發展出來的系統,而以這個系統所發行出來的行動裝置便是Remix Ultratablet和Remix Mini,其中Remix Mini這個小盒子更是銷售火熱。

Remix Mini其實就是一部迷你的Android電腦,但麻雀雖小確是五臟俱全,因為它在網路支援上內建802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi無線網路、藍牙4.0無線技術、10/100BASE-T乙太網路,影像呈現部分則提供了HDMI連接埠與1080p解析度,可以輕鬆將生活、娛樂、商務等應用通通行動帶著走,完整資訊可以參考官方網站(http://www.jide.com/mini),或是到Remix Mini的台灣官方網站(http://www.remixmini.com.tw/)來看看線上的產品展示。

或許大家會覺得幹嘛這麼麻煩,只要在Windows中安裝一個Android的模擬器,不就可以解決執行Android應用程式的需求嗎?

其實不然,因為BlueStacks這類模擬器雖然也能夠搜尋與安裝Google Play商店中的應用程式,並且在Windows桌面中建立相對的應用程式捷徑,但有許多應用程式無法正常執行,或是雖然可以執行但啟動的速度非常慢,無論如何,這一類的模擬器終究不是原生的Android系統,實在難以普及於一般消費者或商務人士。

外接USB也能有如內接SATA的效能表現嗎?USB 3.0加速類型測試比較

自USB 3.0這一個迷人(?)的連接埠開始廣泛地被運用在主機板與筆記型電腦上,已經有了一年多的時間了,主機板上所使用的USB 3.0控制晶片也琳瑯滿目,從一個埠到可以支援四個埠的晶片都有。而自從AMD A75主機板晶片原生支援USB 3.0,且Intel明年度Ivy Bridge的7系列晶片也要包含此一功能,這樣一個高速外部連接埠的普及速度也將會越來越快了。

What is FTP?

FTP is an acronym for File Transfer Protocol. As the name suggests, FTP is used to transfer files between computers on a network. You can use FTP to exchange files between computer accounts, transfer files between an account and a desktop computer, or access online software archives. Keep in mind, however, that many FTP sites are heavily used and require several attempts before connecting.

An FTP address looks a lot like an HTTP or website address except it uses the prefix ftp:// instead of http://.

Download the ISO file from Debian official website, burn it into a CD/DVD.
Prepare a document to record the selections of the following steps, especially for passwords you will set; prepare a mouse for the touchpad won’t be usable during installation.

Setting up a minimal Debian for VM use

I’ve been just installing a Linux in a VM again (using VirtualBox, tested with 1.5.6). As a minimal system, I choose Debian (with minimal I mean that you don’t get much unused stuff, it boots fast and the disk usage is reasonable. I know that DSL or whatever would be smaller, this is just about getting a decent work system up and running quickly). Here’s a small howto:

  1. Get the Debian Net-Installer from Debian.org (180 MiB)
  2. Install debian, when it comes to package setup deselect “Desktop system
  3. After reboot, install (using apt-get install):
    • x-window-system-core
    • kde-core
    • kdm
    • g++
  4. Reboot
  5. Install the VM additions, but install the kernel headers first using: apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
  6. Reboot, notice that the network doesn’t seem to work any longer
  7. Run dhcpd (as root)

Done. This gives you a quite small debian installation which works fine and uses really little disk space (1.10 GiB including the swap-file).

[Update] dhcpd has to be run as root in case no network connection is found.

Using lsof: 10 Essential Commands To Troubleshoot Your Linux Server

Verified and Tested 10/30/15

Introduction

At some point in their career, everyone is going to troubleshoot an issue. And everyone has their favorite troubleshooting step to use. For a lot of system admins, the first step to do is make sure that everything is up-to-date. For others it’s only a matter of checking log files before finding your solution. For me and others here at Atlantic.Net, it’s lsof; a command line utility used to list information about files that are opened by various processes.

Mostly used for troubleshooting network connection issues, lsof is a powerful yet too-little-known application. If you’re familiar with general Linux commands, lsof is an easy tool to remember because it “lists open files”.

VirtualBox: two network interfaces (NAT and host-only ones) in a Debian guest on Ubuntu

I created a Debian VM on VirtualBox with two interfaces: a NAT one (for accessing internet) and a host-only one. However, I do not know how to make both interfaces work at the same time. If I the define the host-only as the adapter 1, I can access my VM from the host but not the internet; if I define the NAT one as adapter 1, I can access the internet but cannot reach my guest Debian.

All-In-One Redux – Proxmox & FreeNAS

Why?

After using my VMware/NexentaStor All-In-One for a while, I grew tired of VMware’s bloat & limitations. Doing “cool stuff” in VMware requires a license, & vSphere Client only runs on Windows. I got tired of starting up a Windows VM just to manage my hypervisor. That’s the only thing I started Windows up for, and it got old. I wanted something I could manage directly from my primary OS, OS X, as well as lightweight & preferably open source.

There are plenty of hypervisor products on the market today, but I wanted to move to something open source & unix based. KVM has quickly become a big presense in this market, and for a good reason: it’s awesome. It’ll run on just about any hardware you have, and has even been ported to Solaris in the form of SmartOS.
