After installation of new service on server is nice to update Munin plug-ins.
munin-node-configure
/usr/sbin/munin-node-configure --suggest
/usr/sbin/munin-node-configure --shell | sh
/etc/init.d/munin-node restart
Plug-in list is up-to-date.

1. Install chromium, x11-xserver-utils and unclutter
sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y
sudo apt-get install chromium x11-xserver-utils unclutter
2. We need to prevent screen from going blank and disable screen saver.
– edit /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart and comment # screen saver line and add those lines:
@xset s off
@xset -dpms
@xset s noblank
@chromium --kiosk --incognito http://some.web.
Done.

1. The Debian Avahi (nss-mdns) Bug
There is a known bug doing the rounds in Debian based distros, this includes Ubuntu.
The problem is in the nsswitch.conf file where wins mdns causes a slowdown of DNS resolution on some machines.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s…ahi/+bug/94940
A simple workaround for this problem is to remove mdns4_minimal entry from the nsswitch.conf file, or change mdns4_minimal to just mdns4 (whichever works best for you):
Edit this file- /etc/nsswitch.conf
Scroll down to the entry which says:
hosts: files dns wins mdns4_minimal
and delete the mdns4_minimal entry. (I removed wins as well), s it looks like this:
hosts: files dns
2. Check your DNS in resolv.conf
You should only have two entries (usually) which are your Internet Service Provider’s DNS servers.
Check and/or edit your dns servers:
gksudo scite /etc/resolv.conf
It should look something like this:
search my.isp.com
nameserver 4.4.2.2
nameserver 4.4.2.4
You may have an extra IP address there, possibly your router (192.168.1.1), and if you haven’t got dns servers configured in your router config, this may cause a problem/slowdown as well. EG:
search my.isp.com
nameserver 192.168.1.1
nameserver 4.4.2.2
nameserver 4.4.2.4
Just remove the first one and leave the two ISP DNS server IP’s.

Posted: 02/23/2010 | Author: lokir | Filed under: ubuntu | Tags: swap, swappiness | 1 Comment
The swappiness parameter controls the tendency of the kernel to move processes out of physical memory and onto the swap disk. Because disks are much slower than RAM, this can lead to slower response times for system and applications if processes are too aggressively moved out of memory.
swappiness can have a value of between 0 and 100
swappiness=0 tells the kernel to avoid swapping processes out of physical memory for as long as possible
swappiness=100 tells the kernel to aggressively swap processes out of physical memory and move them to swap cache
The default setting in Ubuntu is swappiness=60. Reducing the default value of swappiness will probably improve overall performance for a typical Ubuntu desktop installation. A value of swappiness=10 is recommended, but feel free to experiment. Note: Ubuntu server installations have different performance requirements to desktop systems, and the default value of 60 is likely more suitable.
To check the swappiness value
cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
To change the swappiness value A temporary change (lost on reboot) with a swappiness value of 10 can be made with
sudo sysctl vm.swappiness=10
To make a change permanent, edit the configuration file with your favorite editor:
gksudo gedit /etc/sysctl.conf
Search for vm.swappiness and change its value as desired. If vm.swappiness does not exist, add it to the end of the file like so:
vm.swappiness=10
Save the file and reboot.
