Cubie Truck 測試 – ArchLinux 使用無線網路

檢查是否有載入無線網路模組
# lsmod | grep bcmdhd
bcmdhd                497637  0

如果沒有的話
# echo bcmdhd >> /etc/modules-load.d/cubie.conf

建立無線網路設定檔
# cp /etc/netctl/examples/wireless-wpa /etc/netctl/wlan0[@more@]

修改設定檔
# egrep -v ‘^#|^$’ /etc/netctl/wlan0
Description=’A simple WPA encrypted wireless connection’
Interface=wlan0
Connection=wireless
Security=wpa
IP=dhcp
ESSID=’CHTN_T07AW’

連上無線網路
# cd /etc/netctl
# netctl start wlan0

查看無線網路
# ifconfig wlan0

先切換有線網路 eth0
# ifconfig eth0 down

測試是否能連上網路
# ping -c 4 140.111.66.1

Cubie Truck 測試 – Arch Linux 開機執行的檔案

在 Fedora / CentOS Linux 可以在 /etc/rc.d/rc.local,在 Debian / Ubuntu Linux 可以在 /etc/rc.local 中設定開機要執行的一些功能,如:防火牆的設定之類的功能,不過在 Arch Linux 中似乎沒有這一個檔案的存在,但可以用替代的方式,達到這種功能。

Cubie Truck 測試 – 放棄使用 Ubuntu 14.04

原本看到在 Cubie Truck 下載區有 Ubuntu 14.04 非常高興,馬上下載下來使用!
下載網址:http://dl.cubieboard.org/software/a20-cubietruck/ubuntu-14.04/

預設登入的帳號及密碼:root / cubie
不過開機完成後,發現進入的是文字介面,這也還好,反正可以透過網路加裝其它套件,然後發現竟然連 eth0 也沒抓到,這真的是給 Cubie Truck 用的版本嗎?

Adobe Flash Player 15.0.0.239

Adobe Flash Player 15.0.0.239
[@more@]Windows 平台
Internet Explorer:
http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/pdc/15.0.0.239/install_flash_player_ax.exe
Windows 8/8.1 版則要從 Windows Update 中更新

All Other Browsers(Firefox,Safari & Opera):

Cubie Truck 測試 – Ubuntu Desktop 中文化

預設的 Ubuntu Desktop 是英文版的介面

底下是中文化的過程
[@more@]$ sudo locale-gen zh_TW.UTF-8
Generating locales…
  zh_TW.UTF-8… done
Generation complete.
$ sudo update-locale LANG=zh_TW.UTF-8
$ sudo update-locale LANGUAGE=zh_TW.UTF-8

安裝中文語系及中文字形
$ sudo apt-get install fonts-arphic-uming ttf-arphic-ukai language-pack-zh-hant firefox-locale-zh-hant poppler-data language-pack-gnome-zh-hant cmap-adobe-cns1

安裝中文輸入法 gcin
$ sudo apt-get install gcin

重新登出登入後,介面就中文的了!

但 gcin 的圖示無法出現在工作列上,參考下面的連結
http://www.ubuntu-tw.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=217464#forumpost217464

在上面的狀態列上按著「Win」+「Alt」再加上「滑鼠右鍵」,
接著按下「加入面板」就會跳出加入面板的視窗,
這時向下找到「程式狀態通知區」後選擇它並加入,
這樣就會看到 gcin 狀態列了!

但出現圖示之後,發現並不是所有的程式都能使用,試了幾個程式,發現 firefox / leafpad 可以,但 terminal / gedit 則不行,這是…..

所以決定先放棄這一個版本。

Bananian Linux 更新到 14.11

除了可以下載新的 Image 來安裝 Bananian Linux  14.11 外,也可以從已安裝的系統來做升級
1. 登入系統,執行 bananian-update
# bananian-update
[@more@]2. 輸入 yes 進行更新

3. 更新中

4. 更新完成,執行 shutdown -r now 重新啟動
# shutdown -r now

Cubie Truck 測試 – 擴展 Ubuntu root 分割區

因為 Ubuntu root 分割區的大小實在有些小,稍微安裝一下套件就快滿了!

none            985M  172K  985M   1% /run/shm

但在 Ubuntu Desktop 似乎沒有提供 nand-part 這一個指令
$ sudo nand-part
sudo: nand-part: command not found

UDISK 是還未用到的區域,也就是 root 分割區要擴展的區域
