__Eclipse juno__
The tab font is very large by default, you can change it by tweaking the css :''/usr/local/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.platform_4.2.0.v201206081400/css/e4_default_gtk.css''
Subversion : Install Subversive with the SVNKit 1.7.x .
__ Create icon in taskbar __Create file {{.local/share/applications/opt_eclipse.desktop}} with the following contents:
{{{[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Eclipse
Comment=Eclipse Integrated Development Environment
Icon=/usr/local/eclipse/icon.xpm
Exec=/usr/local/eclipse/eclipse
Terminal=false
Categories=Development;IDE;Java;
}}}
! Intellij Idea
I got some tips from Sridhar and ended up creating this file [intellij-idea.desktop] in mij intellije ./bin directory, and run the command:
{{{xdg-desktop-menu install --novendor intellij-idea.desktop
}}}
That gave me an icon in the applications list, and after starting it, you can right-click and "Keep in dock" it.
To identify the value for {{StartupWMClass}} you issue the command {{xprop WM_CLASS}} and click the IntelliJ window.
I also attached a similar [desktop file|sublime.desktop] for Sublime Text Editor
! Subversion
 
Unfortunately 12.04 comes with an old 1.6 subversion, so I upgraded that to 1.7.1 with the two debs at [http://svn-ref.assembla.com/download-clients.html#Ubuntu] (also locally available in the Downloads dir now)
! Citrix
Install the Citrix receiver .deb file from the Citrix download site.Additionally I had to download a "Verisign Class 3 Public Primary CA - G5" from [http://www.verisign.com/repository/roots/root-certificates/PCA-3G5.pem] and download it to ''/opt/Citrix/ICAClient/keystore/cacerts/PCA-3G5.pem''
(in Ubuntu 12.10, this last thing is not necessary anymore)
! Wireless driver
 
I added a file named ´´intel-5300-iwlagn-disable11n.conf´´ to /etc/modprobe.d containing the following to get my wireless working properly (I had lots of SYN_SENT TCP sessions) :
{{{options iwlagn 11n_disable=1
}}}
! Memory usage Eclipse
Running Eclipse with the OpenJDK, it requires excessive amounts of storage (I don't mean heap storage), run top command, and it will have "VIRT 1.8G" and "RES 1.1G", leaving hardly any memory left for anything else (I only have 2G in my laptop)I removed openjdk and downloaded the sun6 jdk, now I get "VIRT 911M" and "RES 310M".
! Suspend resume fix
For my wife's ASUS X54L I had to tweak some for the suspend/resume to work.Thanks to the guy who posted: [http://thecodecentral.com/2011/01/18/fix-ubuntu-10-10-suspendhibernate-not-working-bug/comment-page-8]

! Samsung NP900X3C tweaks
Everything works out of the box, except:
* keyboard backlight, the Fn keys (F9 F10) do not work, a workaround can issuing these commands :
{{echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/samsung/leds/samsung::kbd_backlight/brightness}}
to turn it off. echo a higher number to turn it on (higher = more light) * suspend with on/off button, if you press the power button when the laptop is on, you get a nice prompt: \\
[samsung-poweroff.png] \\
, clicking the suspend option does nothing. What does work is clicking the right most button and selecting suspend. This link to [nonobis|http://blog.nonobis.nl/?p=11/] describes an excellent update to udev to make the backlit fn-keys work perfectly.
__eclipse__
Eclipse tweaks again, both added the .gtkrc-2.0 (see [Installatie Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope#GTKRC]), and changed the {{e4_default_gtk.css}}, see [http://blog.nanthrax.net/2012/07/change-tab-font-in-eclipse-juno/]
__Keyboard backlight__
The keys do not work, so the following workaround. \\
First a sudo rule, so anyone can execute the required cmd:
{{{User_Alias ALLEN = gast,metskemCmnd_Alias NETBOOK_CMDS = /usr/local/sbin/kbdlight *ALLEN ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: NETBOOK_CMDS
}}}
If you press the Fn keys (F9 and F10), the following pops up in the kern.log:
%%small
{{{Oct 15 20:01:22 gneisenau kernel: [22026.303943] atkbd serio0: >Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x97 on isa0060/serio0).
Oct 15 20:01:22 gneisenau kernel: [22026.303954] atkbd serio0: >Use 'setkeycodes e017 ' to make it known.
Oct 15 20:43:15 gneisenau kernel: [24030.623358] atkbd serio0: > Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x96 on isa0060/serio0).
Oct 15 20:43:15 gneisenau kernel: [24030.623370] atkbd serio0: >Use 'setkeycodes e016 ' to make it known.
^}}}
/%
You can use the {{setkeycodes}} to map a scancode to a keycode.
You first should find what keycodes are still free, the {{xmodmap -pk}} command will show you that, in my case, I used the following codes:
{{{root@gneisenau:/var/log# setkeycodes e016 93
root@gneisenau:/var/log# setkeycodes e017 97
}}}
--- did not finish this tweak ----
But found this [http://blog.nonobis.nl/?p=11/] an excellent description of how to fix the backlight issue by correcting udev.
