Install ChromiumOS

1. Get Chromium OS from one of the following places
   1. Download the vanilla build (old but stable): http://chromeos.hexxeh.net/
      1. NOTE: Password is facepunch
   2. Download the nightly build (sync doesn't work): http://download-chromiumos.appspot.com/
      1. NOTE: If you want developer mode, you must change _base_ in the download URL to _test_ as the base image does not have developer tools enabled
      2. NOTE: Password is unknown, instructions for working around this are provided later
      3. NOTE: I could not get syncing working with this build, perhaps due to no API KEYS being provided???
2. NOTE: I could not move past the welcome screen on the 64bit build due to no network being found (32bit worked)

I was tired of Chrome eating all my laptop resources so I decided to put some limit to it with cgroup.

As I was using Ubuntu 12.04 with support for cgroup, I installed the package cgroup-bin and add the following group to the file /etc/cgconfig.conf:

group browsers {
    cpu {
#       Set the relative share of CPU resources equal to 25%
        cpu.shares = "256";
 }

 * BEWARE:

On a recent project, I ran into an issue with Python Selenium webdriver. There's no easy way to open a new tab, grab whatever you need and return to original window opener.

Here's a couple people who ran into the same complication:

• http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17547473/how-to-open-a-new-tab-using-selenium-webdriver
• http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6421988/webdriver-open-new-tab/9122450#9122450
• https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/selenium-users/kah4iEPRopc
• ... and many many more.

So, after many minutes (read about an hour) of searching, I decided to do find a quick solution to this problem.

Some scripts/configurations that greatly improve tmux/vim workflows. The shell scripts target zsh but should be adaptable without much effort for other unix shells.

Features:

• Transparently move between tmux panes and vim windows
• Using the shell, open files in one vim instance per project or directory
• Fully integrated copy/paste between tmux, vim and x11 using simple keybinds(need to install the xclip program)
• Easily send text to any tmux pane without breaking your edit workflow(needs slimux

'vim-tmux-move.zsh', '.vimrc' and '.tmux.conf' cooperate so you can move transparently between tmux panes and vim windows using ALT + (arrow keys or jkhl). It was based on this gist
