Quick resume of the installation process.

Dependencies

Install dependecies first.

sudo apt update

Compile Tomahawk Music Player on Ubuntu 18.04

Just because I loved this music player but the project is abandonned and not available in Ubuntu 18.04 repository...

So I wanted to keep notes to compile it on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

Get the sources

Use the packages for Debian 9.x in https://github.com/tomahawk-player/tomahawk/wiki/Debian-Build-Instructions

glmark2 for nVidia cards

The goal of this gist is to help users who was in the same case as me after the installation of the nVidia drivers.

Issue

While running glmark2 after the driver installation, I got a nice surprise:

Erreur de segmentation (core dumped)

Adobe Acrobat Reader installation on ElementaryOS - Loki

Just keeping track of my searching about this topic because I got only 💩 instructions...

The `Elementary Way` to do it 😎

In order to keep the system clean as possible, I will just install the required dependencies:

Eddy from the AppCenter
The installation package: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/unix/9.x/9.5.5/enu/AdbeRdr9.5.5-1_i386linux_enu.deb

LibreOffice 6.x with Dark Theme and Icons for ElementaryOS

Just a quick gist to keep track of what was needed to have the latest libreoffice version with Dark Theme and the ElementaryOS Icon pack to be accorded with the ElementaryOS distribution.

Get the software

If you never used ppa before, you will need to install this package first software-properties-common.

sudo apt install software-properties-common

Enable 2.1 audio output in PulseAudio

I'm using a 2.1 speakers kit from Logitec but most of the time it is always detected as 2.0... 😒

So I decided to make some research and found a solution that works everytimes (on Ubuntu based distribs).

It seems to work also on Arch Linux, see comment from @ilikenwf.

Before patching

As you can see, my audio output is not patched.

Raspberry Pi 2/3B/B+/4B Wireless Bridge using Ubuntu Server 18.04 ARM Image and Netplan

The initial goal of this project is to use the raspberry pi in place of my Wireless Range Extender and then going from 3 wireless networks (2.4ghz, 2.4ghz extended, 5ghz) at home to only one (5ghz). This way I'm reducing the exposition to radio waves for the whole familly at home.

Let's go technical

Ok, enough drama for now, let's go technical. 😁
