Basic asp NET dev environment in Ubuntu 12 04

I recently had to do a small example of integrating the system I am currently working on into an asp.NET application.  Not having a windows machine handy I though I would give Mono a try.  Fortunately setting up a basic dev environment was really simple.  NOTE: this is a very basic dev environment with no IDE or frameworks installed etc, it was perfect for what I needed but may not be appropriate for full blown development. First install xsp2: sudo apt-get install mono-xsp2 then: mkdir -p ~/dotnet cd dotnet gedit Default.aspx Then paste in the following: <%     HelloWorldLabel.Text = "Hello, world!"; %> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html > <head runat="server">     <title>Untitled Page</title> </head> <body>     <form id="form1" runat="server">     <div>       ...

BBC to Le Monde Ubuntu Phone Press Round Up

The BBC was among several well-known press outlets to cover the Ubuntu Phone showing during Mobile World Congress 2015. The veteran British broadcaster published a two minute video  on Canonical�s pitch at MWC on the technology section of its news website. In the clip  auntie�s  resident technology reporter Rory Cellan-Jones gives the Meizu MX4 Ubuntu Edition a quick paw before asking Canonical CEO Jane Silber if Ubuntu has a chance of going mainstream in a mobile world dominated by apps, Android and other emerging alternatives. Silber � who, incidentally is one of the nicest people you could ever meet � walks Cellan-Jones through the key proposition of the Ubuntu Phone concept (i.e., Scopes) and explains the advantages the technology brings.

Beautiful BURG boot loader gets Ubuntu 11 04 PPA

BURG is the sexy version if Grub. Here's how to install it in Ubuntu 11.4 Fear not, a forward thinking chap, Nate Muench, has knocked up a PPA that publishes BURG for use in Ubuntu 11.04. Note that the files are the same packages as supplied for Ubuntu 10.10 but built for Ubuntu 11.04. Confusing? A bit. Do they work fine? Yes. Install BURG Bootloader in Ubuntu 11.04 Upgrading your boot-manager to BURG is not recommended unless youre aware of what youre doing and how to reverse any changes.
