Installing Eclipse PDT on Ubuntu Maverick 10.10

I had some issues installing Eclipse PDT on Ubuntu Maverick 10.10. Finally, the solution could be found here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EclipsePDT




Installation

From Synaptic Package Manager and Update Site
NOTE: On Ubuntu 10.10 this method will install Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo) and PDT 2.1.

Install Eclipse

* Open Synaptic Package Manager (System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager)
* Find the package "eclipse" and mark it for installation
* Click Apply

Install PHP Development Tools (PDT)

* Open Eclipse and specify your workspace (Applications->Programming->Eclipse)
* Help->Install New Software
* Select the Galileo Update site
* Select the PHP Development Tools (PDT) Feature
* Install...

BUT! ... you have to know that you need to run Eclipse as root for the second part of the installation. If you don't do it, you will not get an error. You will just not be able to access PDT features :-( ...

Following symlinks in a Samba share

If you have a Samba share, and the Samba share has some symlinks to other folders, then you will not be able to access those "symlink folders" with a basic Samba setup.

If you do want to access the folder, you need to add this to the #### Networking #### section of your /etc/samba/smb.conf file:

wide links = yes
unix extensions = no

Restart your Samba daemon:

$ sudo service smbd restart

... and you're done! :-)

mod_deflate brakes streaming of audio/video in Firefox (with combination of Quicktime plugin)

Submitted by Jochus on 11 Jan 2011 - 09:54

I recently had a problem with Firefox 3.6.12 and the Quicktime plugin. When I wanted to play an audio file, the audio file gets cut after 3 seconds, even if the audio file was longer than 3 seconds.
The problem was related to the mod_deflate compression of Apache HTTPD on our files. You need to disable this option for audio/video files.

We changed this detail in our .htaccess file:

<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
	# Insert filter
	SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
 
	# Netscape 4.x has some problems...
	BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html
 
	# Netscape 4.06-4.08 have some more problems
	BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip
 
	# MSIE masquerades as Netscape, but it is fine
	BrowserMatch \bMSIE !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html
 
        # Don't compress images/audio/video
        SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \\.(?:gif|jpe?g|png|mp3|mp4|wav|avi|mpe?g)$ no-gzip dont-vary
 
	# Make sure proxies don't deliver the wrong content
	<IfModule mod_headers.c>
		Header append Vary User-Agent env=!dont-vary
	</IfModule>
</IfModule>

Installing adobe flashplugin for Firefox in Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 (64 bit)

Submitted by Jochus on 30 Dec 2010 - 16:14

I had some troubles installing the Adobe Flash plugin in Firefox. "The normal way" (working through the Firefox browser) failed in an error: adobe-flashplugin is virtual. The solution is:

  • $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sevenmachines/flash
$ sudo aptitude update
$ sudo aptitude install flashplugin64-installer
  • Restart Firefox and enjoy your new Adobe Flash Player! :-)
