Ubuntu Phone OS Unveiled by Canonical

Posted on January 9, 2013 by dvs007

 Ubuntu  phone has been unveiled by Mark Shuttleworth in London, on Jan 2 ,2013
Calling the product launch a “significant next step in our history”, Shuttleworth demoed the device and spoke of Canonical’s plans for taking the device to an already saturated mobile market.

Naturally neat and organised

We bring the world to your fingertips, and organise it all beautifully. Swipe from the home screen to filter your searches to apps, people, music and so on. Swipe from the top to see your incoming messages. Everything is stylish, elegant and crisp.
Everything you expect in a phone
Ubuntu includes native applications covering all the essentials you expect in a phone: telephony and voicemail, SMS and MMS, email, web browsing, photography, music and video
       

Customise to your needs

Operators have room to enhance Ubuntu with their own services, content, apps and branding without breaking compatibility with the broader Ubuntu app ecosystem. Canonical engages with OEMs and operators to enable them to ship phones with custom capabilities, or offer exclusive items for their audience.
Content can be surfaced in the home screen and search, apps can be pre-installed and there are ample opportunities for branding the device. With an extensible cloud framework on every Ubuntu device, you can deliver custom services to your audience that fit neatly into a global cloud ecosystem.

A truly global solution

Ubuntu is already used in over 70 countries and has been translated into over 40 languages. With 20 million desktop users around the world, it is both an established platform and an established global brand.

Backed by Canonical

Canonical is the global software vendor that provides commercial and design support to the Ubuntu project. Today, our hardware enablement team supports the pre-installation of Ubuntu on millions of new PCs shipped worldwide, annually.
Thanks to Canonical’s relationships with its OEM partners, Ubuntu has an enormous retail presence in key emerging economies, with branded merchandising and trained retail staff in over 1,000 stores.

Specifications

So what sort of guts does it take to run the phone OS? Or, to put it another way, how ‘lean’ is ‘lean’?
This is where things get interesting.
A “low end” Ubuntu Phone will require, at a minimum:
  • Dual-core A9 ARM Processor
  • 1GB of RAM
  • 4GB Flash Storage + SD
  • 800×400 WVGA Screen
  • Multi-touch
To run the phone with ‘convergence’ enabled (a fancy way of saying ‘you can dock it and it will run a full desktop) the requirements are a bit higher:
  • Quad-core A9 ARM Processor
  • 1GB of RAM
  • 32GB Flash + SD
  • Minimum of 720p screen resolution
  • Multi-touch

Resolve shared library problem with Eclipse on Ubuntu (Android developers)

Posted on January 8, 2013 by dvs007
While starting android development on Ubuntu using Eclipse, you may get some errors like

/home/catia/android-sdks/platform-tools/aapt: error while loading shared libraries: 
libz.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

or  while trying to start the simulator,

/home/catia/android-sdks/tools/mksdcard: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory 
[2012-01-01 19:00:18 - SDK Manager] Failed to create the SD card. 
[2012-01-01 19:00:18 - SDK Manager] Failed to create sdcard in the AVD folder.

or any other like these..This is because, Android SDK is compiled for a 32-bit GNU/Linux system, and your  system is a 64-bit system. To solve this error, install the 32-bit versions of all the most commonly used libraries, by installing the ia32-libs package 

Go to the terminal and type the following command.

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

This will solve the issue.

All You Need to Know about Linux File Permission

Posted on November 10, 2012 by dvs007

Hope this will help you to understand different file permissions and  how to changes the permission of a file or directory in a UNIX/LINUX system.
Syntax;
chmod [numeric combination] [filename]
here [numeric combination] is created using the following criteria.
Owner
(User who owns the file.)		 Group
(Group that owns the file)		 Anybody
(Other)
non 0 0 0
read 4 4 4
write 2 2 2
execute 1 1 1
if you want to make your file read only by owner, then use
chmod 400 filename
if only executed by others

chmod 001 filename

if read/write by the owner and only read by everyone else
chmod (4+2)(4)(4)  file
which is;

chmod 644 filename

With this if all need executable rights
chmod (4+2+1)(4+1)(4+1)  file
that’s it;

chmod 755 filename

This can also be calculated in a more professional way.

when we are checking the permissions of files using “ls -l” command in the terminal we get a results which looks like “– rwx r-x r– file “.

this can be interpreted as;
- rwx r-x r-- file 
--111 101 100
here;
    r  read
    w  write
    x executable
    - non
 




Where now when we convert each set binary digits to decimal,












Binary
Decimal






000
0




001
1




010
2




011
3












Binary
Decimal






100
4




101
5




110
6




111
7














We get the numeric values we wonted. In this case its 754


So we have to use the command.


chmod 754 file
