VirtualBox

Type: Dynamically expanding image
Location: /home/tanyeun/.VirtualBox/VDI/WindowsXP.vdi
Size: 10.00 GB (10737418240 Bytes)

I left 10G because I thought XP needs lots of MEM space
but the truth is it only takes about 4 G

add user to group of VirtualBox:
vi /etc/group
vboxusers:x:120:user

press right ctrl to free the mouse from the VM

# Integration ---
if we add device -> Install Guest Additions
then we can combine windows and linux together which is pretty cool
back to non-combination mode using HOST + L (HOST = right ctrl)

# Audio
Host Audio Driver: OSS Audio Driver

Mapple-bbs on Ubuntu

1. download Mapple-BBS at
  http://processor.tfcis.org/~itoc/doc/101_install.htm

2.
-root- # mkdir /home/bbs

-root- # vipw
         // bsd
         bbs:*:9999:99::0:0:BBS Administrator:/home/bbs:/bin/tcsh
         // linux
         bbs:x:9999:999:BBS Administrator:/home/bbs:/bin/bash

-root- # joe /etc/group
   // bsd 
         bbs:*:99:bbs
   // linux
         bbs:*:999:bbs
shell:
You have modified /etc/passwd.
You may need to modify /etc/shadow for consistency.
Please use the command `vipw -s' to do so.


-root- # passwd bbs
shell:
passwd: Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info
passwd: password unchanged
// probably cause edit /etc/shadow failed
then manually edit vi /etc/shadow

or the above might replace by simply using "adduser bbs" command

-root- # tar xvfz /tmp/MapleBBS-3.10-20yymmdd-PACK.tgz -C /home/

-root- # chown -R bbs:bbs /home/bbs
 

Intro

I am at Grainger Lib, UIUC, thinking of the need of a cyber space to keep track of my
everyday improvement in case of forgetting anything

I used to keep track of everything on BBS, which is a Chinese ASCII interface on telnet
but it is regarded unsafe and got blocked from wifi and appears very slow on wireline

at first I set up Mapple-BBS on the VM ware on Windows and use it offline
it runs very well but after some unknown problem on my VM that cannot access to
the internet make me to decide change my OS to linux

so that 's the origin reason I create this blog. ^_^
