+内核编程常常看起来像是黑魔法，而在亚瑟 C 克拉克的眼中，它八成就是了。Linux内核和它的用户空间是大不相同的：抛开漫不经心，你必须小心翼翼，因为你编程中的一个bug就会影响到整个系统。浮点运算做起来可不容易，堆栈固定而狭小，而你写的代码总是异步的，因此你需要想想并发会导致什么。而除了所有这一切之外，Linux内核只是一个很大的、很复杂的C程序，它对每个人开放，任何人都去读它、学习它并改进它，而你也可以是其中之一。 + +学习内核编程的最简单的方式也许就是写个内核模块：一段可以动态加载进内核的代码。模块所能做的事是有限的——例如，他们不能在类似进程描述符这样的公共数据结构中增减字段（LCTT译注：可能会破坏整个内核及系统的功能）。但是，在其它方面，他们是成熟的内核级的代码，可以在需要时随时编译进内核（这样就可以摒弃所有的限制了）。完全可以在Linux源代码树以外来开发并编译一个模块（这并不奇怪，它称为树外开发），如果你只是想稍微玩玩，而并不想提交修改以包含到主线内核中去，这样的方式是很方便的。 + +在本教程中，我们将开发一个简单的内核模块用以创建一个**/dev/reverse**设备。写入该设备的字符串将以相反字序的方式读回（“Hello World”读成“World Hello”）。这是一个很受欢迎的程序员面试难题，当你利用自己的能力在内核级别实现这个功能时，可以使你得到一些加分。在开始前，有一句忠告：你的模块中的一个bug就会导致系统崩溃（虽然可能性不大，但还是有可能的）和数据丢失。在开始前，请确保你已经将重要数据备份，或者，采用一种更好的方式，在虚拟机中进行试验。 + +### 尽可能不要用root身份 ### + +> 默认情况下，**/dev/reverse**只有root可以使用，因此你只能使用**sudo**来运行你的测试程序。要解决该限制，可以创建一个包含以下内容的**/lib/udev/rules.d/99-reverse.rules**文件： +> +> SUBSYSTEM=="misc", KERNEL=="reverse", MODE="0666" +> +> 别忘了重新插入模块。让非root用户访问设备节点往往不是一个好主意，但是在开发其间却是十分有用的。这并不是说以root身份运行二进制测试文件也不是个好主意。 + +#### 模块的构造 #### + +由于大多数的Linux内核模块是用C写的（除了底层的特定于体系结构的部分），所以推荐你将你的模块以单一文件形式保存（例如，reverse.c）。我们已经把完整的源代码放在GitHub上——这里我们将看其中的一些片段。开始时，我们先要包含一些常见的文件头，并用预定义的宏来描述模块： + + #include + #include + #include + + MODULE_LICENSE("GPL"); + MODULE_AUTHOR("Valentine Sinitsyn "); + MODULE_DESCRIPTION("In-kernel phrase reverser"); + +这里一切都直接明了，除了**MODULE\_LICENSE()**：它不仅仅是一个标记。内核坚定地支持GPL兼容代码，因此如果你把许可证设置为其它非GPL兼容的（如，“Proprietary”[专利]），某些特定的内核功能将在你的模块中不可用。 + +### 什么时候不该写内核模块 ### + +> 内核编程很有趣，但是在现实项目中写（尤其是调试）内核代码要求特定的技巧。通常来讲，在没有其它方式可以解决你的问题时，你才应该在内核级别解决它。以下情形中，可能你在用户空间中解决它更好： + +> - 你要开发一个USB驱动 —— 请查看[libusb][1]。 +> - 你要开发一个文件系统 —— 试试[FUSE][2]。 +> - 你在扩展Netfilter —— 那么[libnetfilter\_queue][3]对你有所帮助。 + +> 通常，内核里面代码的性能会更好，但是对于许多项目而言，这点性能丢失并不严重。 + +由于内核编程总是异步的，没有一个**main()**函数来让Linux顺序执行你的模块。取而代之的是，你要为各种事件提供回调函数，像这个： + + static int __init reverse_init(void) + { + printk(KERN_INFO "reverse device has been registered\n"); + return 0; + } + + static void __exit reverse_exit(void) + { + printk(KERN_INFO "reverse device has been unregistered\n"); + } + + module_init(reverse_init); + module_exit(reverse_exit); + +这里，我们定义的函数被称为模块的插入和删除。只有第一个的插入函数是必要的。目前，它们只是打印消息到内核环缓冲区（可以在用户空间通过**dmesg**命令访问）；**KERN\_INFO**是日志级别（注意，没有逗号）。**\_\_init**和**\_\_exit**是属性 —— 联结到函数（或者变量）的元数据片。属性在用户空间的C代码中是很罕见的，但是内核中却很普遍。所有标记为**\_\_init**的，会在初始化后释放内存以供重用（还记得那条过去内核的那条“Freeing unused kernel memory…[释放未使用的内核内存……]”信息吗？）。**\_\_exit**表明，当代码被静态构建进内核时，该函数可以安全地优化了，不需要清理收尾。最后，**module\_init()**和**module\_exit()**这两个宏将**reverse\_init()**和**reverse_exit()**函数设置成为我们模块的生命周期回调函数。实际的函数名称并不重要，你可以称它们为**init()**和**exit()**，或者**start()**和**stop()**，你想叫什么就叫什么吧。他们都是静态声明，你在外部模块是看不到的。事实上，内核中的任何函数都是不可见的，除非明确地被导出。然而，在内核程序员中，给你的函数加上模块名前缀是约定俗成的。 + +这些都是些基本概念 - 让我们来做更多有趣的事情吧。模块可以接收参数，就像这样： + + # modprobe foo bar=1 + +**modinfo**命令显示了模块接受的所有参数，而这些也可以在**/sys/module//parameters**下作为文件使用。我们的模块需要一个缓冲区来存储参数 —— 让我们把这大小设置为用户可配置。在**MODULE_DESCRIPTION()**下添加如下三行： + + static unsigned long buffer_size = 8192; + module_param(buffer_size, ulong, (S_IRUSR | S_IRGRP | S_IROTH)); + MODULE_PARM_DESC(buffer_size, "Internal buffer size"); + +这儿，我们定义了一个变量来存储该值，封装成一个参数，并通过sysfs来让所有人可读。这个参数的描述（最后一行）出现在modinfo的输出中。 + +由于用户可以直接设置**buffer\_size**，我们需要在**reverse\_init()**来清除无效取值。你总该检查来自内核之外的数据 —— 如果你不这么做，你就是将自己置身于内核异常或安全漏洞之中。 + + static int __init reverse_init() + { + if (!buffer_size) + return -1; + printk(KERN_INFO + "reverse device has been registered, buffer size is %lu bytes\n", + buffer_size); + return 0; + } + +来自模块初始化函数的非0返回值意味着模块执行失败。 + +### 导航 ### + +> 但你开发模块时，Linux内核就是你所需一切的源头。然而，它相当大，你可能在查找你所要的内容时会有困难。幸运的是，在庞大的代码库面前，有许多工具使这个过程变得简单。首先，是Cscope —— 在终端中运行的一个比较经典的工具。你所要做的，就是在内核源代码的顶级目录中运行**make cscope && cscope**。Cscope和Vim以及Emacs整合得很好，因此你可以在你最喜爱的编辑器中使用它。 + +> 如果基于终端的工具不是你的最爱，那么就访问[http://lxr.free-electrons.com][4]吧。它是一个基于web的内核导航工具，即使它的功能没有Cscope来得多（例如，你不能方便地找到函数的用法），但它仍然提供了足够多的快速查询功能。 + +现在是时候来编译模块了。你需要你正在运行的内核版本头文件（**linux-headers**，或者等同的软件包）和**build-essential**（或者类似的包）。接下来，该创建一个标准的Makefile模板： + + obj-m += reverse.o + all: + make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) modules + clean: + make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) clean + +现在，调用**make**来构建你的第一个模块。如果你输入的都正确，在当前目录内会找到reverse.ko文件。使用**sudo insmod reverse.ko**插入内核模块，然后运行如下命令： + + $ dmesg | tail -1 + [ 5905.042081] reverse device has been registered, buffer size is 8192 bytes + +恭喜了！然而，目前这一行还只是假象而已 —— 还没有设备节点呢。让我们来搞定它。 + +#### 混杂设备 #### + +在Linux中，有一种特殊的字符设备类型，叫做“混杂设备”（或者简称为“misc”）。它是专为单一接入点的小型设备驱动而设计的，而这正是我们所需要的。所有混杂设备共享同一个主设备号（10），因此一个驱动(**drivers/char/misc.c**）就可以查看它们所有设备了，而这些设备用次设备号来区分。从其他意义来说，它们只是普通字符设备。 + +要为该设备注册一个次设备号（以及一个接入点），你需要声明**struct misc\_device**，填上所有字段（注意语法），然后使用指向该结构的指针作为参数来调用**misc\_register()**。为此，你也需要包含**linux/miscdevice.h**头文件： + + static struct miscdevice reverse_misc_device = { + .minor = MISC_DYNAMIC_MINOR, + .name = "reverse", + .fops = &reverse_fops + }; + static int __init reverse_init() + { + ... + misc_register(&reverse_misc_device); + printk(KERN_INFO ... + } + +这儿，我们为名为“reverse”的设备请求一个第一个可用的（动态的）次设备号；省略号表明我们之前已经见过的省略的代码。别忘了在模块卸下后注销掉该设备。 + + static void __exit reverse_exit(void) + { + misc_deregister(&reverse_misc_device); + ... + } + +‘fops’字段存储了一个指针，指向一个**file\_operations**结构（在Linux/fs.h中声明），而这正是我们模块的接入点。**reverse\_fops**定义如下： + + static struct file_operations reverse_fops = { + .owner = THIS_MODULE, + .open = reverse_open, + ... + .llseek = noop_llseek + }; + +另外，**reverse\_fops**包含了一系列回调函数（也称之为方法），当用户空间代码打开一个设备，读写或者关闭文件描述符时，就会执行。如果你要忽略这些回调，可以指定一个明确的回调函数来替代。这就是为什么我们将**llseek**设置为**noop\_llseek()**，（顾名思义）它什么都不干。这个默认实现改变了一个文件指针，而且我们现在并不需要我们的设备可以寻址（这是今天留给你们的家庭作业）。 + +#### 关闭和打开 #### + +让我们来实现该方法。我们将给每个打开的文件描述符分配一个新的缓冲区，并在它关闭时释放。这实际上并不安全：如果一个用户空间应用程序泄漏了描述符（也许是故意的），它就会霸占RAM，并导致系统不可用。在现实世界中，你总得考虑到这些可能性。但在本教程中，这种方法不要紧。 + +我们需要一个结构函数来描述缓冲区。内核提供了许多常规的数据结构：链接列表（双联的），哈希表，树等等之类。不过，缓冲区常常从头设计。我们将调用我们的“struct buffer”： + + struct buffer { + char *data, *end, *read_ptr; + unsigned long size; + }; + +**data**是该缓冲区存储的一个指向字符串的指针，而**end**指向字符串结尾后的第一个字节。**read_ptr**是**read()**开始读取数据的地方。缓冲区的size是为了保证完整性而存储的 —— 目前，我们还没有使用该区域。你不能假设使用你结构体的用户会正确地初始化所有这些东西，所以最好在函数中封装缓冲区的分配和收回。它们通常命名为**buffer\_alloc()**和**buffer\_free()**。 + + static struct buffer *buffer_alloc(unsigned long size) + { + struct buffer *buf; + buf = kzalloc(sizeof(*buf), GFP_KERNEL); + if (unlikely(!buf)) + goto out; + ... + out: + return buf; + } + +内核内存使用**kmalloc()**来分配，并使用**kfree()**来释放；**kzalloc()**的风格是将内存设置为全零。不同于标准的**malloc()**，它的内核对应部分收到的标志指定了第二个参数中请求的内存类型。这里，**GFP_KERNEL**是说我们需要一个普通的内核内存（不是在DMA或高内存区中）以及如果需要的话函数可以睡眠（重新调度进程）。**sizeof(*buf)**是一种常见的方式，它用来获取可通过指针访问的结构体的大小。 + +你应该随时检查**kmalloc()**的返回值：访问NULL指针将导致内核异常。同时也需要注意**unlikely()**宏的使用。它（及其相对宏**likely()**）被广泛用于内核中，用于表明条件几乎总是真的（或假的）。它不会影响到控制流程，但是能帮助现代处理器通过分支预测技术来提升性能。 + +最后，注意**goto**语句。它们常常为认为是邪恶的，但是，Linux内核（以及一些其它系统软件）采用它们来实施集中式的函数退出。这样的结果是减少嵌套深度，使代码更具可读性，而且非常像更高级语言中的**try-catch**区块。 + +有了**buffer\_alloc()**和**buffer\_free()**，**open**和**close**方法就变得很简单了。 + + static int reverse_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *file) + { + int err = 0; + file->private_data = buffer_alloc(buffer_size); + ... + return err; + } + +**struct file**是一个标准的内核数据结构，用以存储打开的文件的信息，如当前文件位置（**file->f\_pos**)、标志(**file->f\_flags**），或者打开模式（**file->f\_mode**)等。另外一个字段**file->privatedata**用于关联文件到一些专有数据，它的类型是void *，而且它在文件拥有者以外，对内核不透明。我们将一个缓冲区存储在那里。 + +如果缓冲区分配失败，我们通过返回否定值（**-ENOMEM**）来为调用的用户空间代码标明。一个C库中调用的**open(2)**系统调用(如 **glibc**)将会检测这个并适当地设置**errno** 。 + +#### 学习如何读和写 #### + +“read”和“write”方法是真正完成工作的地方。当数据写入到缓冲区时，我们放弃之前的内容和反向地存储该字段，不需要任何临时存储。**read**方法仅仅是从内核缓冲区复制数据到用户空间。但是如果缓冲区还没有数据，**revers\_eread()**会做什么呢？在用户空间中，**read()**调用会在有可用数据前阻塞它。在内核中，你就必须等待。幸运的是，有一项机制用于处理这种情况，就是‘wait queues’。 + +想法很简单。如果当前进程需要等待某个事件，它的描述符（**struct task_struct**存储‘current’信息）被放进非可运行（睡眠中）状态，并添加到一个队列中。然后**schedule()**就被调用来选择另一个进程运行。生成事件的代码通过使用队列将等待进程放回**TASK\_RUNNING**状态来唤醒它们。调度程序将在以后在某个地方选择它们之一。Linux有多种非可运行状态，最值得注意的是**TASK\_INTERRUPTIBLE**（一个可以通过信号中断的睡眠）和**TASK\_KILLABLE**（一个可被杀死的睡眠中的进程）。所有这些都应该正确处理，并等待队列为你做这些事。 + +一个用以存储读取等待队列头的天然场所就是结构缓冲区，所以从为它添加**wait\_queue\_head_t read\_queue**字段开始。你也应该包含**linux/sched.h**头文件。可以使用DECLARE\_WAITQUEUE()宏来静态声明一个等待队列。在我们的情况下，需要动态初始化，因此添加下面这行到**buffer\_alloc()**： + + init_waitqueue_head(&buf->read_queue); + +我们等待可用数据；或者等待**read\_ptr != end**条件成立。我们也想要让等待操作可以被中断（如，通过Ctrl+C）。因此，“read”方法应该像这样开始： + + static ssize_t reverse_read(struct file *file, char __user * out, + size_t size, loff_t * off) + { + struct buffer *buf = file->private_data; + ssize_t result; + while (buf->read_ptr == buf->end) { + if (file->f_flags & O_NONBLOCK) { + result = -EAGAIN; + goto out; + } + if (wait_event_interruptible + (buf->read_queue, buf->read_ptr != buf->end)) { + result = -ERESTARTSYS; + goto out; + } + } + ... + +我们让它循环，直到有可用数据，如果没有则使用**wait\_event\_interruptible()**（它是一个宏，不是函数，这就是为什么要通过值的方式给队列传递）来等待。好吧，如果**wait\_event\_interruptible()**被中断，它返回一个非0值，这个值代表**-ERESTARTSYS**。这段代码意味着系统调用应该重新启动。**file->f\_flags**检查以非阻塞模式打开的文件数：如果没有数据，返回**-EAGAIN**。 + +我们不能使用**if()**来替代**while()**，因为可能有许多进程正等待数据。当**write**方法唤醒它们时，调度程序以不可预知的方式选择一个来运行，因此，在这段代码有机会执行的时候，缓冲区可能再次空出。现在，我们需要将数据从**buf->data** 复制到用户空间。**copy\_to\_user()**内核函数就干了此事： + + size = min(size, (size_t) (buf->end - buf->read_ptr)); + if (copy_to_user(out, buf->read_ptr, size)) { + result = -EFAULT; + goto out; + } + +如果用户空间指针错误，那么调用可能会失败；如果发生了此事，我们就返回**-EFAULT**。记住，不要相信任何来自内核外的事物！ + + buf->read_ptr += size; + result = size; + out: + return result; + } + +为了使数据在任意块可读，需要进行简单运算。该方法返回读入的字节数，或者一个错误代码。 + +写方法更简短。首先，我们检查缓冲区是否有足够的空间，然后我们使用**copy\_from\_userspace()**函数来获取数据。再然后**read\_ptr**和结束指针会被重置，并且反转存储缓冲区内容： + + buf->end = buf->data + size; + buf->read_ptr = buf->data; + if (buf->end > buf->data) + reverse_phrase(buf->data, buf->end - 1); + +这里， **reverse\_phrase()**干了所有吃力的工作。它依赖于**reverse\_word()**函数，该函数相当简短并且标记为内联。这是另外一个常见的优化；但是，你不能过度使用。因为过多的内联会导致内核映像徒然增大。 + +最后，我们需要唤醒**read\_queue**中等待数据的进程，就跟先前讲过的那样。**wake\_up\_interruptible()**就是用来干此事的： + + wake_up_interruptible(&buf->read_queue); + +耶！你现在已经有了一个内核模块，它至少已经编译成功了。现在，是时候来测试了。 + +### 调试内核代码 ### + +> 或许，内核中最常见的调试方法就是打印。如果你愿意，你可以使用普通的**printk()** （假定使用**KERN\_DEBUG**日志等级）。然而，那儿还有更好的办法。如果你正在写一个设备驱动，这个设备驱动有它自己的“struct device”，可以使用**pr\_debug()**或者**dev\_dbg()**：它们支持动态调试（**dyndbg**）特性，并可以根据需要启用或者禁用（请查阅**Documentation/dynamic-debug-howto.txt**）。对于单纯的开发消息，使用**pr\_devel()**，除非设置了DEBUG，否则什么都不会做。要为我们的模块启用DEBUG，请添加以下行到Makefile中： + +> CFLAGS_reverse.o := -DDEBUG +> +> 完了之后，使用**dmesg**来查看**pr_debug()**或**pr_devel()**生成的调试信息。 +> 或者，你可以直接发送调试信息到控制台。要想这么干，你可以设置**console_loglevel**内核变量为8或者更大的值（**echo 8 /proc/sys/kernel/printk**），或者在高日志等级，如**KERN_ERR**，来临时打印要查询的调试信息。很自然，在发布代码前，你应该移除这样的调试声明。 + +> 注意内核消息出现在控制台，不要在Xterm这样的终端模拟器窗口中去查看；这也是在内核开发时，建议你不在X环境下进行的原因。 + +### 惊喜，惊喜！ ### + +编译模块，然后加载进内核： + + $ make + $ sudo insmod reverse.ko buffer_size=2048 + $ lsmod + reverse 2419 0 + $ ls -l /dev/reverse + crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 10, 58 Feb 22 15:53 /dev/reverse + +一切似乎就位。现在，要测试模块是否正常工作，我们将写一段小程序来翻转它的第一个命令行参数。**main()**（再三检查错误）可能看上去像这样： + + int fd = open("/dev/reverse", O_RDWR); + write(fd, argv[1], strlen(argv[1])); + read(fd, argv[1], strlen(argv[1])); + printf("Read: %s\n", argv[1]); + +像这样运行： + + $ ./test 'A quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog' + Read: dog lazy the over jumped fox brown quick A + +它工作正常！玩得更逗一点：试试传递单个单词或者单个字母的短语，空的字符串或者是非英语字符串（如果你有这样的键盘布局设置），以及其它任何东西。 + +现在，让我们让事情变得更好玩一点。我们将创建两个进程，它们共享一个文件描述符（及其内核缓冲区）。其中一个会持续写入字符串到设备，而另一个将读取这些字符串。在下例中，我们使用了**fork(2)**系统调用，而pthreads也很好用。我也省略打开和关闭设备的代码，并在此检查代码错误（又来了）： + + char *phrase = "A quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog"; + if (fork()) + /* Parent is the writer */ + while (1) + write(fd, phrase, len); + else + /* child is the reader */ + while (1) { + read(fd, buf, len); + printf("Read: %s\n", buf); + } + +你希望这个程序会输出什么呢？下面就是在我的笔记本上得到的东西： + + Read: dog lazy the over jumped fox brown quick A + Read: A kcicq brown fox jumped over the lazy dog + Read: A kciuq nworb xor jumped fox brown quick A + Read: A kciuq nworb xor jumped fox brown quick A + ... + +这里发生了什么呢？就像举行了一场比赛。我们认为**read**和**write**是原子操作，或者从头到尾一次执行一个指令。然而，内核确实无序并发的，随便就重新调度了**reverse\_phrase()**函数内部某个地方运行着的写入操作的内核部分。如果在写入操作结束前就调度了**read()**操作呢？就会产生数据不完整的状态。这样的bug非常难以找到。但是，怎样来处理这个问题呢？ + +基本上，我们需要确保在写方法返回前没有**read**方法能被执行。如果你曾经编写过一个多线程的应用程序，你可能见过同步原语（锁），如互斥锁或者信号。Linux也有这些，但有些细微的差别。内核代码可以运行进程上下文（用户空间代码的“代表”工作，就像我们使用的方法）和终端上下文（例如，一个IRQ处理线程）。如果你已经在进程上下文中和并且你已经得到了所需的锁，你只需要简单地睡眠和重试直到成功为止。在中断上下文时你不能处于休眠状态，因此代码会在一个循环中运行直到锁可用。关联原语被称为自旋锁，但在我们的环境中，一个简单的互斥锁 —— 在特定时间内只有唯一一个进程能“占有”的对象 —— 就足够了。处于性能方面的考虑，现实的代码可能也会使用读-写信号。 + +锁总是保护某些数据（在我们的环境中，是一个“struct buffer”实例），而且也常常会把它们嵌入到它们所保护的结构体中。因此，我们添加一个互斥锁（‘struct mutex lock’）到“struct buffer”中。我们也必须用**mutex\_init()**来初始化互斥锁；**buffer\_alloc**是用来处理这件事的好地方。使用互斥锁的代码也必须包含**linux/mutex.h**。 + +互斥锁很像交通信号灯 —— 要是司机不看它和不听它的，它就没什么用。因此，在对缓冲区做操作并在操作完成时释放它之前，我们需要更新**reverse\_read()**和**reverse\_write()**来获取互斥锁。让我们来看看**read**方法 —— **write**的工作原理相同： + + static ssize_t reverse_read(struct file *file, char __user * out, + size_t size, loff_t * off) + { + struct buffer *buf = file->private_data; + ssize_t result; + if (mutex_lock_interruptible(&buf->lock)) { + result = -ERESTARTSYS; + goto out; + } + +我们在函数一开始就获取锁。**mutex\_lock\_interruptible()**要么得到互斥锁然后返回，要么让进程睡眠，直到有可用的互斥锁。就像前面一样，**\_interruptible**后缀意味着睡眠可以由信号来中断。 + + while (buf->read_ptr == buf->end) { + mutex_unlock(&buf->lock); + /* ... wait_event_interruptible() here ... */ + if (mutex_lock_interruptible(&buf->lock)) { + result = -ERESTARTSYS; + goto out; + } + } + +下面是我们的“等待数据”循环。当获取互斥锁时，或者发生称之为“死锁”的情境时，不应该让进程睡眠。因此，如果没有数据，我们释放互斥锁并调用**wait\_event\_interruptible()**。当它返回时，我们重新获取互斥锁并像往常一样继续： + + if (copy_to_user(out, buf->read_ptr, size)) { + result = -EFAULT; + goto out_unlock; + } + ... + out_unlock: + mutex_unlock(&buf->lock); + out: + return result; + +最后，当函数结束，或者在互斥锁被获取过程中发生错误时，互斥锁被解锁。重新编译模块（别忘了重新加载），然后再次进行测试。现在你应该没发现毁坏的数据了。 + +### 接下来是什么？ ### + +现在你已经尝试了一次内核黑客。我们刚刚为你揭开了这个话题的外衣，里面还有更多东西供你探索。我们的第一个模块有意识地写得简单一点，在从中学到的概念在更复杂的环境中也一样。并发、方法表、注册回调函数、使进程睡眠以及唤醒进程，这些都是内核黑客们耳熟能详的东西，而现在你已经看过了它们的运作。或许某天，你的内核代码也将被加入到主线Linux源代码树中 —— 如果真这样，请联系我们！ +

+一般当说到Linux桌面上的应用，我总是将这些应用划分为两大类，频繁使用的和一些别的应用。下边我为大家介绍的是一些自己日常使用的应用。 + +1） **Firefox** — 有时我也会使用用其他的浏览器，但最近[火狐浏览器][1]已经成为我可以长期信赖的朋友。可靠的、 安全的、 跨平台的，火狐浏览器完全满足了我的日常冲浪需求。 + +除了访问书签和网页，我还依靠火狐浏览器来处理我的各种部署在局域网服务器上的工作，如 [Plex][2], [Zoneminder][3], 路由器/WEB应用防火墙, 及我的文件服务器。所有这些均可以使用火狐浏览器进行访问。 + +2） **Parcelite**— 如果没有一个像样的剪贴板管理器我简直没法开始工作，至少对我来说，你无法找到在GNOME 下的[Parcelite][4]有什么不足。使用简单，易于访问而且它提供了很多的有用的选项。Parcelite选项应有尽有，包括了从热键设置到空格处理方式。尽管已经有很多的剪贴板管理器，但它们却很难击败 Parcelite。 + +3） **Bittorrent Sync** — 我已经使用过了各种开源替代方案进行文件同步，但是他们在正式发布之前还需要进行进一步开发。应该说[Bittorrent Synchas][5]从来没有让我失望过。它运行和安装都很简单和方便，这多亏了新的GUI的实现，而且 Bittorrent Sync 允许我快速地从一台机器到另外一台机器传输巨大的视频文件，而无需浪费时间去将大量的文件同步到“云端”。 + +我还发现它是与别人分享大型文件的最佳方法，在分享的同时能一直保持 IP 地址和目录的隐蔽。尽管有许多的替代品，我仍然坚定地成为了Bittorrent Sync的骨灰粉丝。 + +4） **System Monitor** — 因为TOP实在是滚动地太快了，所以我个人更喜欢一个具有选项卡式的 GUI，因为它能够让我的眼睛更轻松些。使用 GNOME 的系统监视器，我可以很快地发现一个失控的进程，并且轻松地kill掉它而不需吹灰之力。与[TOP][7]这样的终端程序不同的是，我可以实时的以图形化的方式去查看我的 CPU、 内存和磁盘的使用情况。作为一个拥有正常视觉的人，很难找到一个比用条形图来展示我还拥有多少的空间的更好方式。当然这也同样适用于其它的实时资源使用情况的监视。 + +5） **PulseAudioControl** — 每一天，我总是需要在多个声音设备之间来回穿梭。有时我需要将其中一个设为默认设备，然后却可能会从火狐浏览器音频完全切换到到另一个设备。因为我想控制我的尽可能多的音频，然后我就发现 [PulseAudioControl][8]是一个无价的工具。 + +### 一些别的软件 ### + +在本节中，我将分享我使用，但可能并不一定是每天都使用的应用程序。许多这些应用程序都是开放源代码的，有一些不是，但是它们对我个人都非常具有价值。 + + +6） **Skype** — 无论是拨入[Jupiter Broadcasting][9] 收听每周共同主持的播客，或者只是简单联系一个业务，[Skype][10] 见证了互联网视频会议的发展史。测试完成无数的替代品后，我总是会发现自己还是终回到了Skype。即使有真的很棒的开源选择像[Ekiga][11] 和 [Jitsi][12]，而在最后Skype总是与大家同在 —— 切换到Skype是一件很幸运的事。 + +7）**Kdenlive** — 我使用两个不同的视频编辑器，当我要处理一个需要大量编辑的视频剪辑项目的时候，[Kdenlive][13]是我用于图片合成和编辑大型的复杂的视频的工具。我已经成功地在 Kdenlive 里边做过6个素材轨道的编辑，但同样的负载量早已经让别的视频剪辑软件崩溃了。 + +8）**OpenShot** — 大多数情况下，我会将[OpenShot][14]作为视频剪辑任务的首选神兵利器。快速的编辑和两个素材轨道工作区让你可以流畅而操作简单。我还发现它提供了很棒的无与伦比的特效。调制标题效果和超赞的的视频转场效果使OpenShot在我自己的视频项目上成为一款超棒的视频制作软件。 + +9）**SpiderOak** — 在使用了无数云备份服务这么多年后， [SpiderOak][15] 已经成为了我的至爱。易于安装和使用，我超喜欢它所提供的增量选项而且使用起来是如此的简单。只需一次设置，不再操心，之后SpiderOak将会挑起你的文件搬运大任。 + +10） **Dropbox** — 许多年来，我已经与[Dropbox][16] 爱恨交织。尽管它的跨平台特性这意味着我可以从任何位置访问文件，我慢慢地发现我自己越来越少依赖这个基于云计算的备份解决方案。尽管如此，它允许我从任何 web 浏览器中访问文件，即使是从我不经常使用的计算机，这使得抛弃 Dropbox 更是难上加难。 + +11） **Writer** — 自从我第一次在Windows的OpenOffice里面使用过它之后，我一直都在使用[Writer][17]。今天，我使用LibreOffice 所带的Writer来满足我的需求，它可以做一切一个文字处理器可以做的事情。现在，公正地说，一些专有的办公套件可能会提供附加功能在Writer中是没有的，但是99%的人需要的功能在Writer这里都有。就我个人而言，我会永远是一个LibreOffice Writer粉。 + +12）**SimpleScreenRecorder** — 多年来，我发现自己使用 [SimpleScreenRecorder][18]远超过其他同类软件，它能很好支持多监视器模式，再加上它甚至可以捕获基于 OpenGL 的应用程序的视频。易于使用和可靠的 SimpleScreenRecorder 让我的工作更加得心应手。我把它推荐给那些只是偶尔需要，懒得使用其它屏幕捕捉软件的同学们。 + +13）**SimpleScan** — 当我需要扫描文档的时候，我一点都不想将大把大把的时间花费在配置的臃肿的程序上。 [Simple Scan][19] 可以在这方面做得很好。智能的SANE扫描数据库，Simple Scan将与市面上的任何扫描仪或多功能一体打印机/扫描仪很好的进行协作。此外还有一点好处就是它会设置成的最佳分辨率，当然你还可以很方便手动调整任何你需要的设置。 + +14）**Baobab**（磁盘使用分析器） — 我不断听到关于如何硬盘价格已回落。这或许没错，但现实却是我却囊中羞涩。这意味着我需要充分利用我能利用的所有硬盘空间，为了实现这个目的，我使用 [Baobab][20] 来观察我在我的硬盘上的可用空间，而且还可以直观地看到到底是哪一个目录正在蚕食我宝贵的硬盘空间。 + +### 真正的具有生产力的软件 ### + +谈到我所依赖的这些软件，我们真正关心的是他们能为我们完成什么样的任务，而不是它们所拥有的光辉头衔和自身的许可证。linux不需要软件的传奇时代早已过去。多数的计算机上的工作，除了有限的几个例外，大都可以在linux桌面上轻松地如我所说的那样完成。 + +很明显有一些对于你来说是必不可少的软件，但是也许不是我必须用的。你所倚重的软件是什么？您可在下方进行评论并与我们的读者进行分享那些优秀的软件。

+测试版/不稳定版的Debian给开发者提供了一个比当前稳定版更新的环境以及软件。你们注意到了么？其实这些稳定版啊不稳定版啊神马的都是别名，比方说稳定版其实就是Debian的稳定发行版，而测试版将会是下一个Debian的稳定发行版（当然那是测试后的事了）。截至发稿为止，当前Debian的稳定发行版是Wheezy 7.x，将会成为下一个稳定版的测试版则是Jessie。 + +当你需要一款应用的最新版本的时候，启用测试版/不稳定版将会是不二的选择。当初我因为工作需要，要安装个Apache的 2.4.x到我的Debian Wheezy。测试版需要的是2.4.x的，可是我的软件库里面只有2.2.x的。所以最好的解决方案当时是将测试版下下来啦。 + +通常来说当我们想尝试最新版本的应用时，都应该只在测试版软件库中搜索。 + +在这篇文章里我将教大家如何在不弄坏你系统的前提下设置好测试、不稳定版的Debain系统并在上面安装软件。 + +> Stable < Testing < Unstable （稳定 < 测试版 < 不稳定版） +> Wheezy < Jessie < Sid + +### 1. 设置测试版/不稳定版的apt源 ### + +第一步是把测试版/不稳定版的源加到你的sources.list文件里。在Debian Wheezy系统上，/etc/apt/sources.list理应长得像这样： + + $ cat /etc/apt/sources.list + +---------- + + ... + deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main + deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main + deb-src http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main + ... + +把你repo服务器的链接记下来，比如：http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ + +这个repo服务器将会是离你最近的一个服务器； 在不同的地理位置会有不同的url，这个将会用于下一步。 + +如果想加测试/不稳定源，则需要在sources.list文件加上这些东西： + + # Testing repository - main, contrib and non-free branches + deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian testing main non-free contrib + deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian testing main non-free contrib + + + # Testing security updates repository + deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free + deb-src

+ deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian jessie main non-free contrib + deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free + deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian sid main non-free contrib + +### 2. 钉住 apt！这非常重要 ### + +> 在加了测试/不稳定的repo之后，当你更新系统的时候所有安装过并且可用的软件就会立马更新，而后你的系统就被你玩火自焚了。 + +所以需要设置一些规则，以便选定的软件包在正常的更新时不会被更新到一个不稳定的测试版本。 + +我们需要使用“钉住APT”的方式来告诉apt系统，除了我们希望使用测试版或不稳定版的特定软件包之外，其它的总是使用稳定版的软件包来更新。 + +可以通过如下两个文件之一来设置如何设置APT的优先级来“钉住”。 + + /etc/apt/preferences + 或 + /etc/apt/preferences.d/my_preferences + +打开这两个文件之一（如果没有的话就创建一个），然后输入如下内容： + + Package: * + Pin: release a=stable + Pin-Priority: 700 + + Package: * + Pin: release a=testing + Pin-Priority: 650 + + Package: * + Pin: release a=unstable + Pin-Priority: 600 + +前面我们提到过，稳定版指的是你当前的debian版本，测试版是下一个，而不稳定版则是更远的将来发行版。上面的设置中最主要的是优先级（Pin-Priority）。当前的稳定版应该有最高的优先级，这就是说，正常的apt-get操作只会从当前的稳定版的软件库（现在是wheezy）里面安装软件。 + +#### 更新包缓存 #### + +在增加了新的软件库和指定了优先规则后，需要更新一下包缓存。 + + $ sudo apt-get update + +#### 确认APT规则 #### + +我们必须确认“钉住”的设置正确，优先级也没问题。使用 apt-cache 的 policy 参数来检查： + + $ apt-cache policy apache2 + apache2: + Installed: (none) + Candidate: 2.2.22-13 + Version table: + 2.4.7-1 0 + 600 http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ unstable/main amd64 Packages + 2.4.6-3 0 + 650 http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ testing/main amd64 Packages + 2.2.22-13 0 + 700 http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages + +如上的输出，确认在wheezy 稳定版中， 2.2.22 版本的Apache是选定的版本，它有最高的优先级。 + +### 3. 从测试版/不稳定版软件库中安装软件 ### + +现在可以从测试版或不稳定版中选择一个特定的软件来安装它了。假如说我们要从测试版软件源中安装 apache2。 + +有两个不同的方法，并且其结果也有所不同。 + +#### 方式一 #### + + # apt-get install apache2/testing + +上述命令会从测试版软件库中安装 apache2，并从稳定版软件库中安装其依赖包（稳定版通过apt规则确定）。这个命令在某些情况下会失败，比如安装的软件包（apache2）所需的依赖包在稳定版软件库中没有更新到可以支持该软件时。 + +#### 方式二 #### + + # apt-get -t testing install apache2 + +上述命令会从测试版软件库中安装apache2，并从测试版软件库中安装其依赖包。这要比上面的命令工作的更好。 + +所以，要安装较新的软件包，直接从测试版/不稳定版的软件库中安装就行了。注意，优先级号码不只是一个数字而已，还有其特定意义。可以查看 apt_preferences的man页面了解更多： + + $ man 5 apt_preferences + +### 总结 ### + +使用“钉住”方式的测试版/不稳定版的软件库是一个获取较新版本软件包的一个好办法，不过其实并不推荐使用它们。如果弄错了，可能会从也许不兼容的分支上下载软件包，这会把你的系统搞乱。 + +一个更好的方式是，使用向后移植的软件库来安装更新的包。它从测试版和不稳定版的软件库中获取较新版本的软件包，但是为当前的稳定版软件库而编译。所以，对于 debian wheezy来说，你可以使用wheezy-backports 软件库。访问http://backports.debian.org/ 了解更多。 + +### 资源 ### + +- [https://wiki.debian.org/AptPreferences][1] +- [https://wiki.debian.org/DebianTesting][2] +-

+保护你的Linux系统的九个老生常谈 +================================================================================ +在现在这个世道中，保障基于Linux的系统的安全是十分重要的。但是，你得知道怎么干。一个简单反恶意程序软件是远远不够的，你需要采取其它措施来协同工作。那么试试下面这些手段吧。 + +![](http://www.efytimes.com/admin/useradmin/photo/2Rak10143PM6172014.jpeg) + +### 1. 使用SELinux ### + +[SELinux][1]是用来对Linux进行安全加固的，有了它，用户和管理员们就可以对访问控制进行更多控制。SELinux为访问控制添加了更细的颗粒度控制。与仅可以指定谁可以读、写或执行一个文件的权限不同的是，SELinux可以让你指定谁可以删除链接、只能追加、移动一个文件之类的更多控制。（LCTT译注：虽然NSA也给SELinux贡献过很多代码，但是目前尚无证据证明SELinux有潜在后门） + +### 2. 订阅漏洞警报服务 ### + +安全缺陷不一定是在你的操作系统上。事实上，漏洞多见于安装的应用程序之中。为了避免这个问题的发生，你必须保持你的应用程序更新到最新版本。此外，订阅漏洞警报服务，如[SecurityFocus][2]。 + +### 3. 禁用不用的服务和应用 ### + +通常来讲，用户大多数时候都用不到他们系统上的服务和应用的一半。然而，这些服务和应用还是会运行，这会招来攻击者。因而，最好是把这些不用的服务停掉。（LCTT译注：或者干脆不安装那些用不到的服务，这样根本就不用关注它们是否有安全漏洞和该升级了。） + +### 4. 检查系统日志 ### + +你的系统日志告诉你在系统上发生了什么活动，包括攻击者是否成功进入或试着访问系统。时刻保持警惕，这是你第一条防线，而经常性地监控系统日志就是为了守好这道防线。 + +### 5. 考虑使用端口试探 ### + +设置[端口试探（Port knocking）][4]是建立服务器安全连接的好方法。一般做法是发生特定的包给服务器，以触发服务器的回应/连接（打开防火墙）。端口敲门对于那些有开放端口的系统是一个很好的防护措施。 + +下面是来自 http://www.portknocking.org/ 的示意图： +

+ +### 6. 使用Iptables ### + +Iptables是什么？这是一个应用框架，它允许用户自己为系统建立一个强大的防火墙。因此，要提升安全防护能力，就要学习怎样一个好的防火墙以及怎样使用Iptables框架。 + +### 7. 默认拒绝所有 ### + +防火墙有两种思路：一个是允许每一点通信，另一个是拒绝所有访问，提示你是否许可。第二种更好一些。你应该只允许那些重要的通信进入。（LCTT译注：即默认许可策略和默认禁止策略，前者你需要指定哪些应该禁止，除此之外统统放行；后者你需要指定哪些可以放行，除此之外全部禁止。） + +### 8. 使用入侵检测系统 ### + +入侵检测系统，或者叫IDS，允许你更好地管理系统上的通信和受到的攻击。[Snort][3]是目前公认的Linux上的最好的IDS。 + +### 9. 使用全盘加密 ### + +加密的数据更难窃取，有时候根本不可能被窃取，这就是你应该对整个驱动器加密的原因。采用这种方式后，如果有某个人进入到你的系统，那么他看到这些加密的数据后，就有得头痛了。根据一些报告，大多数数据丢失源于机器被盗。 +

+到底开发者需要掌握多少门语言？ +================================================================================ +![](http://a2.files.readwrite.com/image/upload/c_fill,h_900,q_70,w_1600/MTIyNzYyNjIwNDU2Njk4NDcw.jpg) + +> 诸如Apple、Facebook及Google这样的大公司正在开发他们自己的编程语言，开发者们被迫只有适应。 + +前不久的世界开发者大会上，Apple公布了它的新开发语言[Swift][1]。这是最近大型技术公司们开发的一大波新语言中的最新成员，这些新语言某种程度上都是专门应用于他们自己的平台。 + +对iOS开发者，Apple有Swift；而[Facebook 有 Hack][2] —— 一门用于后端开发的语言。与此同时，Google已经拥有了它自己的Javascript替代者 Dart，以及一门新的通用编程语言Go。 + +这一波又一波的新语言，给开发者们带来了许多问题。也许其中最严重的问题正如我一位同事[Adriana Lee][3]在Apple发布Swift后所说： + +> （开发者们到底还得学习多少门语言？） +> ——Adriana Lee (@adra_la) [June 2, 2014][4] + +### 计算机语言的通天塔 ### + +目前已经存在的[编程语言有数百种][5]，同时还有更多的语言正在涌现。其中许多都是被设计用在相对较窄的应用程序范围内，大多数甚至从未走出过项目小组的范围。 + +与此类似，大技术公司开发的新语言其实也是伴随着公司一起成长的。[通用语言的鼻祖，C语言][6]，就源于上世纪70年代初的AT&T贝尔实验室。Java，目前作为Android app开发的主要语言，诞生于上世纪90年代[Sun公司的Microsystems系统][7]。 + +发展到现在，不同之处在于，公司们拥抱新语言、从而想要延伸的特定商业目标的范围不一样了 —— 这一过程同时建立了一个忠心耿耿的开发者基础，他们被牢牢锁定在了某个公司的特定平台上。这类一石二鸟的战略，最早可以追溯到Sun对Java的采用，当时公司就将其作为了挑战微软PC桌面统治地位的一种手段。（事情虽然没有像Sun计划的那样发展下去，但在Google转向Android之前，Java大体上也算是在企业中间件系统中找到了自己的一席之地。） + +这么看来，Apple的Swift其目标也就很明确了。Swift应该不会辜负公司前期的大肆宣传，通过磨平Objective-C那粗糙的毛边，看起来它能够成功简化iOS app开发者的开发过程。但是同样还是这些开发者，他们却需要学习一门新语言的输入和输出，而这些功能很可能在其他地方都不会用到。 + +### 大公司们为什么要重复造轮子 ### + +“不要重复造轮子”这一哲学在绝大多数开发者心中根深蒂固，大公司们对此却并不买账。那他们为何不只是修改下现有语言用于新的用途呢？ + +答案很简单，公司们发明他们自己的语言，是因为他们有这个能力。设计一门新语言可能很复杂，但对资源要求却并不很高。困难之处也就在对其提供支持，包括提供软件资源（共享代码库、API、编译器、文档等）以及赢得开发者的心意。大公司们在这两方面尤其擅长。 + +还有一个事实，现有语言通常很难硬塞进如今的复杂代码框架中。举个栗子，[Facebook决定发明的Hack][8]，就是一个普遍适用于Web开发的[脚本语言PHP][9]的超集合（superset）。 + +Facebook的Hack最近已经比较普遍，其主要目标就是改进代码的稳定性，针对这一目的，它强制在程序运行之前对数据类型进行检测。这样的检测确保了一个程序，比方说，不会将一个整数解析为一个字符串，这样的错误如果捕获不到很可能会导致不可预知的后果。在Hack中，这些检测会预先执行，以便程序员能够在程序上线前早早发现这样的错误。 + +据Facebook的Hack项目组核心成员Julien Verlaguet透露，公司之前尝试过用一门现有语言实现更高效的编程。但是Facebook的大部分代码都是由PHP编写的，公司实际上已经建立了一个支持PHP及其分支的软件架构。即使能够让PHP同其他语言编写的代码协同工作，实现的难易程度和运行速度都无法满足要求。 + +“比如说我们尝试用Scala重写PHP代码库，”Verlaguet说。“Scala是一门设计优秀的漂亮语言，但是它与PHP完全不兼容。每次我需要从Scala的代码库部分调用PHP的时候，都会损失性能。我们很愿意使用一门现有语言，但是对于我们来说，这条路行不通。” + +于是，Facebook发明了Hack，它与PHP一样能够共用公司现有的架构。Verlaguet介绍说，Facebook的代码库主体已经从PHP迁移到了Hack，同时公司将Hack开源，希望独立开发者们能够帮公司找到Facebook以外的用途。 + +“你仍然可以使用PHP，”他说，“但是我们希望你有使用Hack的欲望。” + +### 谁说了算 ### + +公司和开发者之间有一种微妙的平衡。公司可以按照自己的喜好发明语言。但是如果开发者都不愿使用这门语言，那就没人用了，公司以外的人也就没人愿意将自己的职业生涯托付给这家公司。 + +公司在开发过程中同时使用不同的语言，这并不少见。例如，你可能用Objective-C开发iOS app，但却用Java开发Android app。对开发者来说，这从来都不是症结所在，因为Objective-C和Java都是通用面向对象语言。它们用途广泛适用于很多场合。 + +然而，Hack、Dart、Go和Swift，到目前为止，仍然只适用于严格特定公司的编程解决方案，往往和公司选择的编程环境相对应。诚然，现在下结论可能还太早。比方说Hack，就可以用在一些后端的实现中；它只是太新了，以至于Facebook还没有任何数据供人们如此使用。 + +不是开发者不能学习多门语言。事实上，大多数人已经掌握了多门语言。这好比罗曼斯语（由拉丁语演变而成的语言），如果你会说西班牙语，再去学法语就比那些不会西班牙语的人简单许多。与此类似，如果你已经会Java，再学Ruby或Perl就简单得多。如果你会PHP，基本上就已经学会了Hack。 + +与此相反，学习多门语言更多的是一个习惯问题。如果Java已经解决了你的问题，你就不再有动机去学Ruby。如果你用Objective-C编写iOS app感觉很爽，你就不会有强烈的意愿去学Swift。 + +另外，对于一些开发者来说，封闭生态系统的语言只会使每个人的生活变得更糟。例如，自由设计师Jack Watson-Hamblin就告诉我说，像Apple这样强势推出Swift，其实是在冒险增加程序员的负担，同时将开发者社区割裂开来： + +> 程序员掌握多门语言固然重要，但是不断强迫他们紧跟新语言，却是行不通的。如果我正在开发一个简单的跨平台app，我可不想被迫掌握四门语言再来完成它。如果真的需要，我也只想使用一门语言。 + +Watson-Hamblin就主张说，当每家公司都为了自家需要发明自己的语言时，程序员的注意力被分散，开发的视野也局限于一种，这只会拖慢整个开发进程。他说，“如果拿公司负责一门语言与负责一个开源社区相比较，这两者的区别就好比一家大企业与一个初创小公司的区别”。社区生来就更加灵活，适应能力更强。 + +当然，Apple有[许多非常好的理由推出Swift从零开始][10]，就像当初Facebook发明Hack的时候一样。我并不是说，大公司不会强迫开发者接受这种改变，在这方面，有些公司一直都很让人讨厌。 + +“新语言的发明，伴随着霸权的支配，”Verlaguet说，“被迫不停追赶，确实令人沮丧，但另一方面，你又多了一种解决问题的新语言。反过来想想，要是全世界的程序员都用同样一门语言做所有事情，即使啥都凑合着能干，这门语言也一定干得不怎么样”。 + +题图来自于[Flickr user Ruiwen Chua][11]，CC 2.0 +

-我不会涉及太多关于加密原理的细节，但要明白最基本的原理，即使是最简单的实现，这是必须的。要加密和解密一个文件，需要两把“钥匙”。一把是私钥，正如名字所示，属于私有的。我宁愿把私钥看作是真实的钥匙-你想要多少就可造出多少，但这样做是不明智的。同样的私钥你造的越多，某些不怀好意的人得到其中一把的机率就越大，他们就会闯入你的公寓（额，我的意思的文件）。

-这种一对多的情况也有个很酷的副作用。如果你用你的私钥来加密一些东西，任何人都可以用你提供的公钥来解密它们。这听起来很傻，但这种情景很有用。虽然加密的文件不能免于被窥视，但是它能保证此文件确实来自于你而没有被恶意改动过。用你的公钥能解密的文件仅仅只能是用你私钥加密过的。用这种方式，用私钥加密的文件即是数字“签名”文件。

revenues on June 18, showing continued demand and momentum for its Linux and open-source technologies. Red Hat has been particularly busy of late, acquiring a pair of companies and launching its Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 (RHEL) flagship platform. - -For the quarter, Red Hat reported revenue of $424 million, which is a 17 percent year-over-year gain. - -![](http://www.serverwatch.com/imagesvr_ce/7990/icon-redhatlinux-r.jpg) - -"The main driver of our total revenue growth was subscription revenue of $372 million," Red Hat CFO Charlie Peters said during his company's earnings call. "Subscription revenue was up 18 percent year-over-year and it's important to point out that this renewable revenue stream now constitutes 88 percent of total revenue." - -Looking forward, Red Hat provided second quarter guidance for approximately $432 million to $436 million in revenue. - -One of the key metrics for growth that Red Hat provides is its top 30 deals during a given quarter. Peters noted that for the first time, all of the top 30 deals were valued at over $1 million. - -"We also had a Q1 record with four deals that were in excess of $5 million and one that was greater than $10 million," Peters said. "Cross-selling was strong with 65 percent of these deals including one or more components from our group of applications development and emerging technologies offerings." - -At the core of Red Hat's product portfolio is the Red Hat Enterprise Linux platform, which hit a major milestone last week with the debut of RHEL 7. - -"RHEL 7 is significant because it was designed to meet both modern data center and next generation IT requirements for cloud, Linux containers and Big Data," Red Hat CEO Jim Whitehurst said during the earnings call. "As the worlds of physical, virtual and cloud systems converge Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 delivers a true foundation for open hybrid cloud that will serve as the backbone for future application architectures." - -### Acquisitions and Cloud Provide Opportunities for Further Growth ### - -Red Hat has also been busy acquiring a pair of companies that further expand the company's ability to grow. In April, Red Hat acquired Inktank, the lead commercial sponsor behind the Ceph open-source storage filesystem. And on June 18, Red Hat announced the acquisition of OpenStack services vendor eNovance. - -"With eNovance as a part of the Red Hat consulting team, we can enhance our consulting resources to be able to reach more customers with world-class OpenStack technologies and implementation services," Whitehurst said. - -While cloud remains a growth opportunity for Red Hat, Whitehurst sees growth also coming from continuing to take market share away from other server operating system platforms. In particular, Whitehurst noted that there is still a continued move from mainframe and Unix to Linux. - -"I was just on the phone today with a massive European customer that is literally just ready to start on the journey right now," Whitehurst said. "We continue to believe we're taking share from Windows especially with net new workloads." - -Another driver of growth for Red Hat is the maturity and expansion of its sales force. - -"We definitely have more boots on the street because we have been hiring consistently," Whitehurst said. "But I think our sales guys are more experienced, they are better trained, their confidence level is high and their enthusiasm is high." - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -via: http://www.serverwatch.com/server-news/red-hat-revenues-power-forward-in-2015.html - -译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) - -本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/sources/news/20140630 KDE Connect Adds Android File Sending, Touchpad Emulation.md b/sources/news/20140630 KDE Connect Adds Android File Sending, Touchpad Emulation.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..a477b6abef --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/news/20140630 KDE Connect Adds Android File Sending, Touchpad Emulation.md @@ -0,0 +1,51 @@ +KDE Connect Adds Android File Sending, Touchpad Emulation +================================================================================ +**A new version of KDE Connect for Android that adds a number of new features has been released.** + +![KDE Connect can now share files between desktop and mobile](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/kde-connect-share-feature.jpg) +KDE Connect can now share files between desktop and mobile + +KDE Connect for Android and the Plasma desktop now allow the touchscreen of a connected device to be used as a touchpad for your computer. + +This additional wireless input device will act just like a basic mouse, though doesn’t (yet) support multitouch features like two finger scrolling or right-clicking. + +Android’s share intent now supports KDE Connect, allowing you to send files from Android to your desktop and vice versa using a menu entry in the Dolphin file manager or by pushing files using a new command line option. + +Similar features for [iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite][1] and [Android ‘L’ and Chrome OS][2] are planned to debut this fall. + +The updated version also fixes a number of bugs and includes numerous improvements, including support for FreeBSD systems. + +Full Feature List: + +- Share files to/from Android and KDE +- Touchpad emulation +- Receive notifications from Android 4.3+ on desktop +- Shared clipboard supports copy and paste between phone and PC +- Multimedia remote control for select desktop media players (MPRIS) +- Battery status +- Wi-Fi connection sharing +- RSA Encryption + +### Download KDE Connect 0.7 ### + +The KDE Connect Android application is free to download from the Google Play and F-Droid stores. + +- [Download KDE Connect from Google Play][3] + +To make use of the newest features you will also need to install the latest version of KDE Connect (version 0.7) for Plasma.

Plus: Android versus Windows, and Cinnamon versus Unity in Ubuntu 14.04** - -Microsoft became infamous for its very negative early remarks about open source software. But restructuring at the company may be giving it a more positive attitude toward open source. CNet reports on changes in Microsoft's perceptions and behavior when it comes to open source software. - -> According to [CNet][1]: -> -> But Microsoft's feud with open source has been sputtering for quite some time, and the senior managers who led the anti-open source charge are gone from the scene -- or at least no longer in positions of authority. Open source is now routinely used by corporations around the world, and the company's sniffy put-downs only fed into the perception of Microsoft as out of touch. -> -> Some of that new thinking reflects the change at the top of the corporate pyramid, with Satya Nadella replacing Ballmer as CEO in early February. Since taking over, Nadella has talked up his vision of a Microsoft whose future isn't shackled to its Windows past. -> -> [More at CNet][2] -> -> ![](http://www.itworld.com/sites/default/files/microsoft-open-source-communist_1.jpg) -> -> Microsoft and Communist Open Source -> Image credit: [Curako's Blog][3] - -Okay, I hate to be a Negative Ned here, but I'm firmly in the "trust but verify" camp when it comes to Microsoft and open source. Yes, a new CEO and other changes may be helping Microsoft to adjust to living in an open source world. But change never comes easy or fast in such a large organization, so I think the jury is still out on whether or not Microsoft has really changed for the better when it comes to open source software. - -Also, I've never forgotten the company's "embrace, extend, extinguish" strategy that they used in the past to destroy competitive software products. That alone is reason enough to keep a wary eye on Microsoft's involvement with any open source project. Perhaps the company really has changed, but maybe it hasn't. I think it bears watching for at least another few years to see if enduring change has really set in or not. - -### Android versus Windows ### - -ZDNet has an article that covers the top end-user Linux distributions. It notes that Windows still rules the desktop for now, but Android may eventually be the big kahuna among end-user operating systems by the end of this year. - -> According to [ZDNet][4]: -> -> If smartphones and tablet sales continue to grow as expected, Android tablet vendors continue to erode Apple's market share, and PCs continue their decline, Android may end up being the top end-user operating system by the end of 2014—regardless of what happens with the proposed Android PCs. -> -> Taken as a whole, Android clearly rules the Linux end-user space. No, you may not think of it as a desktop yet —although AMD and Intel would both like you to change your mind about that — but Android is on its way to being the top end-user operating system of all. -> -> [More at ZDNet][4] -> -> ![](http://www.itworld.com/sites/default/files/android-devices-versus-windows-pcs.jpg) -> Image credit: [ZDNet][4] - -The numbers mentioned in the article aren't really a surprise, given the mobile revolution that's happened over the last ten years. The desktop just isn't as important as it used to be, and Microsoft just never really mattered in mobile devices. Even now, as they struggle desperately for traction in tablets and phones, Microsoft is still mostly irrelevant in the mobile devices market. - -Google has wreaked absolute havoc on Microsoft's efforts in mobile and is now beginning to be a threat to Microsoft in the desktop market. Between Chrome OS and Android, Google has been battering Microsoft on a number of fronts. If you look at Amazon's list of [top selling desktops][5] and [top selling laptops][6], you see plenty of Chrome OS computers and even some Android PCs. So people are actually buying alternatives to Windows computers and aren't bothered in the least by it. - -### Cinnamon versus Unity in Ubuntu 14.04 ### - -Tech Republic takes a look at whether or not Cinnamon is a viable replacement for Unity in Ubuntu 14.04. The article includes instructions on how to install Cinnamon in Ubuntu 14.04. - -> According to [Tech Republic][7]: -> -> If you want a performance-centric desktop that doesn't toss aside feature and customization, Cinnamon is for you. Cinnamon is a straight-forward desktop interface that pretty much anyone can use -- from your IT staff to your grandmother. It really is that easy to use. Cinnamon doesn't surprise you, it doesn't trick you, but it also (in my opinion) doesn't wow you. But that's not what Cinnamon is about. This take on the desktop is all about functionality -- on a standard level. It doesn't break rules, push envelopes, or have new tricks up its sleeve. -> -> Cinnamon is a fairly pedestrian desktop that takes the bits and pieces of what's worked well over the years and cobbles them together into one, well-designed piece. So, if you're okay with using a desktop that looks and feels a bit long in the tooth (but one that functions very, very well), Cinnamon is for you. If you lean towards the bleeding edge of design and prefer a more modern look and feel, Cinnamon will most likely disappoint. -> -> [More at Tech Republic][7] -> -> ![](http://www.itworld.com/sites/default/files/cinnamon-versus-unity-in-ubuntu-1404.jpg) -> -> Image credit: [Tech Republic][7] - -I'll have to weigh in on the side of Cinnamon here. While Unity has its pluses, I have never really been able to warm up to it. Cinnamon is closer to a more traditional desktop interface and that seems to work the best for me. - -But as always, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The great thing about Linux is that it offers so many different choices. So you really can't go wrong with Unity or Cinnamon, just use whichever one you like best. - -What's your take on all this?

The argument doesn't generally boil down to which distribution is truly best suited for new users, but which distribution is favored by those in the debate. If we set our personal preferences aside, a clearer picture can arise. But even that clarity can quickly get obscured by the needs and desires of the new users. Given that, I decided to take a different approach to finding the “best distro for new users." My criteria for best distribution must not only be easy to use, but also must appeal to a more modern design aesthetic brought about by the ever-growing thrust of the mobile interface metaphor. - -For the purposes of this examination, to be included in the short list a distribution must: - -- Be incredibly user-friendly -- Include, out of the box, all common apps -- Include some form of an app store -- Offer a modern user interface. - -Let me explain each criteria. - -### User-friendliness ### - -This is such a hotly debatable topic. But the truth of the matter is – a new user must be able to pick up a flavor of Linux and just start using it, with little to no explaining. If too much explanation must be given, then the distribution is not user friendly. I hate to be that guy, but nearly any user can sit in front of a Windows 7 or OS X desktop and start using it with almost zero coaching. That is what every Linux desktop should shoot for. - -### Common apps ### - -Users should not have to install the necessities out of the box. Period. And just what are the necessities? The list grows shorter every year. Currently, the list of must-have apps are: - -- Web browser: Either Chrome or Firefox (sorry, all other browsers need not apply) -- Email client: Thunderbird is the obvious choice -- Office Suite: LibreOffice. End of story -- Music player: Play local files and connect to streaming services (such as Spotify). - -That's the short list of apps nearly every user depends upon. - -### App store ### - -Thanks to that ever-growing dependency on mobile devices, users have grown accustomed to app stores. Linux has had these for quite some time (Synaptic being one of the oldest). Without a well thought-out app store, users will struggle with adding software in the Linux environment. This is, without a doubt, crucial. - -### Modern interface ### - -I've mentioned the mobile landscape a number of times already. Thanks to iOS and Android, users have grown fond of the modern UI. The desktop needs to follow suit and draw the attention of users with a unique, modern, yet easy-to-use interface. The old metaphor is no longer as effective in a multi-touch-friendly, mobile world. -Top three distros - -With the criteria in place, which distributions meet (or exceed) our needs? First, let's examine the top three candidates. Each of the following meets (or exceeds) the criteria. - -#### Ubuntu #### - -[Ubuntu Linux][1] has long reigned the king of user-friendly Linux. Out of the box, it's a challenge to find a desktop (Unity) that is more engaging and easy to use... even for those unfamiliar to the platform. The desktop layout, although different, is logical and intuitive. With the addition of one of the single most powerful search tools of any desktop environment, Ubuntu Unity should be considered a crowning achievement among the Linux faithful. - -#### Linux Mint #### - -If there is a distribution set to usurp the crown from the king, it is [Linux Mint][2]. Linux Mint takes a more standard approach to the desktop, but layers just enough eye candy and variation to make it stand out from the long-in-the-tooth desktop metaphor. Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu, so it does benefit from the stability and reliability found in its big brother. - -#### Linux Deepin #### - -New to the user-friendly list is [Linux Deepin][3]. This relatively new distribution hails from China and should be making some serious waves. Why? Because it takes the Linux desktop and turns it into a thing of artistic beauty; while at the same time retaining a high level of user-friendliness. When the newest iteration of this distribution is released, I expect big things. Linux Deepin takes the GNOME 3 desktop and retools it into something completely different and completely marvelous. - -### Scoring the Distros ### - -With the top contenders listed, let's compare each to our criteria and rank each. Scoring for the distributions is as such: For each criteria, the distributions are ranked first to last (first getting 1 point, last getting 3 points). In the end, all scores are totaled to determine the winner -- lowest score wins. - -#### User-friendliness #### - -This is probably the tightest of categories and hardest to judge. Each distribution is tops in user-friendliness in different ways. In the end, I'd rank the top three: - -1. Linux Mint - -2. Ubuntu Linux - -3. Linux Deepin - -Why? Mint gains a slight edge simply because it still holds to the old metaphor of start menu, task bar, and desktop icons. The margin of victory is incredibly slim though, as both Ubuntu and Linux Deepin require next to zero learning curve – even for the yet-to-be-initiated. - -#### Common apps #### - -The only reason this category is hard to judge is because each distribution includes all of the necessary applications. Although Linux Deepin currently offers Kingsoft Office (one of the finest mobile office suite solutions), the plans are to default to LibreOffice in the 2014 release. - -One of my issues with the common apps falls into that of audio players. Though I stream a lot of music (using the Spotify client), when I play music on my local drive, I always use Clementine. The default players are: - -- Ubuntu: Rhythmbox -- Linux Mint: Banshee -- Linux Deepen: DMusic. - -Of the three, Banshee (Figure 1) offers the most features, DMusic (Figure 2) offers the best interface, and (surprisingly enough) Rhythmbox (Figure 3) is, by far, the least reliable. - -![](http://www.linux.com/images/stories/41373/banshee.png) - -banshee - -![](http://www.linux.com/images/stories/41373/dmusic.png) - -dmusic - -![](http://www.linux.com/images/stories/41373/rhythmbox.png) - -rhythmbox - -So, how do they score? Like so: - -1. Linux Mint - -2. Ubuntu Linux - -3. Linux Deepin - -#### App store #### - -This category cannot go without being addressed. Why? Because the app store can easily make or break a Linux distribution for a new user. There will always be apps needed and no new user wants to jump through the hoops of learning the command line. Each distribution has their own take on the app store. - -- Ubuntu: Ubuntu Software Center -- Mint: Software Manager -- Linux Deepin: Deepin Software Center - -It should be said, that each of these tools is based on the Ubuntu Software Center. What is odd about this is that it is the Ubuntu Software Center that lands squarely on the bottom. The primary reason for this is the Ubuntu Software Center is very slow – even on an incredibly powerful machine. - -I would order the app stores as such: - -1. Linux Deepin - -2. Linux Mint - -3. Ubuntu Linux - -Each of the app stores functions in a very similar manner. The reason Linux Deepin gets the top bill is twofold: The interface is easier to navigate and the application opens far faster than either the Ubuntu Software Manager or the Mint Software Manager. - -#### Modern interface #### - -This is the category in which Linux Mint falls way, way behind. Even though it does offer a bit of eye candy and a more shallow learning curve, Linux Mint still suffers from what is, by comparison, a very outdated desktop. Even on powerful hardware (with solid graphics), Linux Mint still looks like it could very easily have been transported from the late 1990s. To that end, we must look to either Ubuntu Linux or Linux Deepin to bring us into the future. The winner is: - -1. Linux Deepin - -2. Ubuntu Linux - -3. Linux Mint - -What Linux Deepin does is use GNOME 3 to create an amalgam of GNOME and OSX that works so beautifully, you think you're dealing with a piece of interactive art. - -### The overall winner ### - -Although this is very rudimentary, the order of our best Linux distro for new users would be: - -1. Linux Mint with a collective score of 7 - -2. Linux Deepin with a collective score of 8 - -3. Ubuntu Linux with a collective score of 9 - -If you're wondering about the 'writer opinion' of this piece, know this: I have used Ubuntu Linux for years (and still do). I have recently been quoted as saying “If there's a Linux distro that will sway me from Ubuntu, it's Linux Deepin.” Although I appreciate Linux Mint for what it is, I only use it for testing purposes. With that said, Linux Mint is the clear winner, when it comes to best Linux distribution for new users. - -Here's the real truth of this matter – you can't go wrong with any of these Linux desktops. They each shine in their own right. If you're looking for a true beauty, go with Linux Deepin. If you want a combination of beauty and ease of use, go with Ubuntu Linux. If you just want simplicity and you don't care about eye candy, go with Linux Mint. No matter which way you go, it's a win-win-win scenario. - -What do you think? How would you rank the three chosen desktops? Or, would you write in a completely different Linux distribution for best in show for the new users (and why)? - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -via: http://www.linux.com/news/software/applications/775873-the-best-linux-distribution-for-new-users/ - -译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) - -本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 - -[1]:http://www.ubuntu.com/ -[2]:http://www.linuxmint.com/ -[3]:http://www.linuxdeepin.com/index.en.html diff --git a/sources/talk/20140611 HTG Explains--What is Unix and Why Does It Matter.md b/sources/talk/20140611 HTG Explains--What is Unix and Why Does It Matter.md index 5ab74993a3..bb30d87f14 100644 --- a/sources/talk/20140611 HTG Explains--What is Unix and Why Does It Matter.md +++ b/sources/talk/20140611 HTG Explains--What is Unix and Why Does It Matter.md @@ -1,4 +1,3 @@ -[translating | sailing] HTG Explains: What is Unix and Why Does It Matter? ================================================================================ ![](http://cdn.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/ken-thompson-and-dennis-richie-at-pdp-11.jpg) diff --git a/sources/talk/20140617 14 Apps To Boost Ubuntu.md b/sources/talk/20140617 14 Apps To Boost Ubuntu.md deleted file mode 100644 index 2b9e43d017..0000000000 --- a/sources/talk/20140617 14 Apps To Boost Ubuntu.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,80 +0,0 @@ -14 Apps To Boost Ubuntu -================================================================================ -Making the switch to Ubuntu – or any popular Linux distribution – is more than the mere act of changing operating systems. You must also have apps that allow you to get work done. - -In this article, I'll be sharing critical applications that I rely on, and I’ll talk about how I use them in my daily activities. - -### Apps for Daily Use ### - -Generally when it comes to software on the Linux desktop, I drop app titles into one of two categories. These would be stuff I use every day, and everything else. Below are applications I find myself running each and every day. - -1) **Firefox** – Sometimes I use other browsers, but lately [Firefox][1] has been my long trusted friend. Reliable, safe and cross platform, Firefox is generally what I use for my daily browsing needs. - -In addition to accessing bookmarks and webpages, I also rely on Firefox to handle my various LAN server duties as well. Duties such as: [Plex][2], [Zoneminder][3], router/WAPs, and my file server. All of these are accessed each day using Firefox. - -2) **Parcelite** – I can't begin to function without a decent clipboard manager, and for me, you can't beat [Parcelite][4] on the GNOME desktop. Simple to use, easy to access and it's also chalked full of useful options. Parcelite options include everything from hotkeys to white space handling. There are a ton of great clipboard managers out there, but it's tough to beat what Parcelite offers. - -3) **Bittorrent Sync** – I have used various open source alternatives for file syncing that needed more development before being released. That being said [Bittorrent Synchas][5] NEVER let me down. It's easy to run and install thanks to the new GUI offering, and Bittorrent Sync allows me to transfer huge video files quickly from machine to machine without wasting time syncing stuff to the "cloud." - -I've also found it to be a fantastic way to share large files easily with others, while maintaining IP address and directory privacy along the way. Despite the numerous alternatives available, I remain firmly grounded as a Bittorrent Sync fanboy. - -4) **System Monitor** – Because TOP only goes so far, I prefer a tabbed GUI as it's much easier on my eyes. Using GNOME's [System Monitor][6], I can quickly discover a runaway process and easily kill it without ever needing to break a sweat. Unlike a terminal app like [TOP][7], I can also get a visual perspective using graphs in real-time for my CPU, memory and disk usage. Being a visual person, it's difficult to beat the bar graph showing me how much space I have. Same applies to real-time resource usage as well. - -5) **PulseAudioControl** – Each day, I tend to bounce between multiple sound devices. Sometimes I need to make one the default, but then switch from Firefox audio to another device altogether. Because I like to have as much control over my audio as possible, I've found that [PulseAudioControl][8] is an invaluable tool. - -### Everything else software ### - -In this section, I'll share apps that I use, but may not necessarily use each and every day. Many of these apps are open source, some are not, all are of great value to me personally. - -6) **Skype** – Whether it's calling into [Jupiter Broadcasting][9] to co-host a weekly podcast, or simply catching up with a business contact, [Skype][10] is how Internet video conversations happen. After testing countless alternatives, I always find myself coming back to Skype. Even though there are really awesome open source options like [Ekiga][11] or [Jitsi][12], at the end of the day Skype is where everyone is at – good luck getting people to switch. - -7) **Kdenlive** – I use two different video editors, and when it comes to banging out a heavily edited video, [Kdenlive][13] is the tool I use for picture in picture compositing and editing really large, complex videos. I've successfully managed 6 track edits in Kdenlive that have crashed in other video editors. - -8) **OpenShot** – For the most part, [OpenShot][14] is my goto video editor for most of my video editing tasks. Quick edits, and two track work goes by quickly and easily using this editor. I have also found that it offers great effects that are difficult to match elsewhere. Blender title effects and great video transitions make OpenShot a fantastic editor for my own projects. - -9) **SpiderOak** – After using countless cloud backup services over the years, I've settled on [SpiderOak][15] as my favorite. Easy to use and setup, I love the incremental options provided and how simple it is use. Just set it and forget it, then SpiderOak does all the heavy lifting. - -10) **Dropbox** – I've had a love/hate relationship with [Dropbox][16] for many years now. Despite being cross platform, which means I can access files from anywhere, I'm slowly finding my self less and less reliant on this cloud-based backup solution. Still, it does allow me to access files from any web browser even if it's not from a computer I'm normally using, which makes dropping the Dropbox habit even harder. - -11) **Writer** – I've been relying on [Writer][17] since I first used it on Windows via OpenOffice. Today, I am using Writer with LibreOffice and for my needs, it does everything I could need a word processor to do. Now it's fair to point out that some proprietary office suites might offer additional functionality not found in Writer, however 99% of what most people need is covered here with Writer. For me personally, I'll always be a LibreOffice Writer fan. - -12) **SimpleScreenRecorder** – Over the years, I've come to find myself using [SimpleScreenRecorder][18] over other alternatives as it does a nice job with multiple monitor support, plus it can even capture OpenGL applications as well. Easy to use and reliable, SimpleScreenRecorder has served me well. I recommend it to anyone who is tired of playing with other screen capturing software that only works some of the time. - -13) **SimpleScan** – When I need to scan a document, I don't want to spend a lot of time configuring a bloated program. [Simple Scan][19] is great in this capacity. Rocking the SANE scanner database, Simple Scan will work with just about any scanner or all-in-one printer/scanner you throw at it. What's also nice is that it's setup to work with the best resolution out of the box, yet you're still free to make any manual adjustments you see fit. - -14) **Baobab** (Disk Usage Analyzer) – I keep hearing how hard drive prices have come down. Be that as it may, the fact is I'm not made of money and each dollar I spend is usually part of a tight budget. This means I need to make the best use of the hard drive space I have available. To help me do this, I rely on [Baobab][20] to give me both a clear view of my available space on my hard drive, but also a clearer picture of which directories are eating away at my precious hard drive space. - -### Apps That Really Work, Regardless ### - -When it comes to applications I rely on, it's really less about their titles and licenses and more about the tasks that they allow me to accomplish. The myth that Linux doesn't really have required software is becoming a thing of the past. Most computing tasks, barring a few limited exceptions, can be done easily from the Linux desktop as I've explained above. - -Obviously there are applications that are "must haves" for you, that I might not use myself.

It’s the latest in a rash of new languages developed by big tech companies, in some cases for specific use with their own platforms. - -Apple has Swift for iOS developers; [Facebook has Hack][2], a language for back-end development. Google, meanwhile, has its own entries—the would-be Javascript replacement Dart and a new general programming language called Go. - -This rash of new languages raises a number of issues for developers. Perhaps the most significant is one my colleague [Adriana Lee][3] raised after Apple's Swift announcement: - -> (How many languages are devs supposed to learn?) -> — Adriana Lee (@adra_la) [June 2, 2014][4] - -### A Computer-Language Babel ### - -There are already [hundreds of programming languages][5] in existence, and more are popping into existence all the time. Many are designed for use in a relatively narrow range of applications, and large numbers never catch on beyond small groups of coders. - -Similarly, big tech companies have been developing new languages for about as long as there have been big tech companies. The [seminal general-purpose language C][6] originated at AT&T Bell Labs in the early 1970s. Java, now the primary language for development of Android apps, was [born at Sun Microsystems][7] in the 1990s. - -What's different these days is the extent to which companies embrace new languages to further their specific business objectives—a process that also has the effect of creating a dedicated base of developers who are effectively "locked in" to a company's particular platform. That sort of dual strategy dates back at least to Sun's introduction of Java, which the company promoted as a way to challenge Microsoft's dominance on the PC desktop. (Things didn't work out the way Sun planned, although Java eventually found a home in enterprise middleware systems before Google adopted it for Android.) - -It's also clearly Apple's goal with Swift. Should it live up to the company's early hype, Swift seems likely to simplify iOS app development by filing the rough edges off Objective-C, the current lingua franca of iOS and Mac OS X developers. But it will also require those same developers to learn the ins and outs of a new language that they're unlikely to use anywhere else. - -### Why Companies Roll Their Own ### - -Which cuts against the ingrained "don’t reinvent the wheel” philosophy that animates most developers. So why don't more companies just adopt already existing languages to new uses? - -One answer is simply that companies build their own languages because they can. Designing a new language can be complex, but it's not particularly resource-intensive. What's hard is building support for it, both in terms of providing software resources (shared code libraries, APIs, compilers, documentation and so forth) and winning the hearts and minds of developers. Companies are uniquely positioned to do both. - -There's also the fact that existing languages are often difficult to shoehorn into today's complex code frameworks. Take, for instance, [Facebook's decision to create Hack][8], a superset of the [scripting language PHP][9] that's commonly used in Web development. - -Facebook's main goal with Hack—a common one these days—was to improve code reliability, in this case by enforcing data-type checking before a program is executed. Such checks ensure that a program won't, say, try to interpret an integer as a string of characters, an error that could yield unpredictable results if not caught. In Hack, those checks take place in advance so that programmers can identify such errors long before their code goes live. - -According to Julien Verlaguet, a core developer on Facebook’s Hack team, the company first looked for an an existing language that might allow for more efficient programming. But much of Facebook was already built on PHP, and the company has built up a substantial software infrastructure to support PHP and its offshoots. While it's possible to make PHP work with code written in a different language, it's not easy—nor is it fast. - -“Let’s say I try to rewrite our PHP codebase in Scala,” Verlaguet said. “It’s a well designed, beautiful language, but it’s not at all compatible with PHP. Everytime I need to call to PHP from the Scala part of the code base, I’ll lose performance speed. We would have liked to use an existing language but for us, it just wasn’t an option.” - -Instead, Facebook invented Hack, which has enough in common with PHP that it can share the company's existing infrastructure. The vast majority of the Facebook codebase has been migrated from PHP to Hack, said Verlaguet, but the company has open sourced the language in hopes that independent developers will find uses for it outside of Facebook. - -“You can still use PHP,” he said. “But we’re hoping you’ll want to use Hack.” - -### Who Holds The Power ### - -Therein lies the balance of power between companies and developers. Companies can make their languages as specific as they like. But if developers don’t want to use them, nobody is going to—outside, that is, of anyone who might harbor hopes of one day working at the company that invented the language. - -It’s not unusual for companies to make it easiest to develop in one language over another. For example, you would use Objective-C to develop iOS apps, but Java to develop Android apps. This has never been a major sticking point with developers because both Objective-C and Java are general purpose object-oriented languages. They’re useful for a number of purposes. - -Hack, Dart, Go, and Swift, however, so far have only proven useful for particular company-designated programming solutions, usually in tandem with that company’s programming environment of choice. Granted, it may be too soon to judge. Hack, for example, can be used in several back-end implementations; it’s just so new that Facebook doesn’t yet have any data that people want to use it that way. - -It’s not that developers aren’t capable of learning multiple languages. Most already do. Think of them like the Romance languages—if you know Spanish, it’ll be easier to learn French and so on than if you didn’t already know one. Likewise, if you already know Java, it’ll be easier to learn Ruby or Perl. And if you know PHP, you basically already know Hack. - -On the contrary, it’s more of a question of habit. If Java already solves your specific problems, you don’t have any incentive to learn Ruby. And if you are happy coding iOS apps in Objective-C, you’re not going to feel very tempted to pick up Swift. - -To some developers, though, ecosystem-specific languages just make life harder for everybody. Freelance designer Jack Watson-Hamblin, for instance, told me that initiatives like Apple's Swift risk overburdening programmers and fragmenting the developer community: - -> It's important for programmers to know multiple languages, but forcing them to keep up with new languages all the time doesn't make sense. If I'm making a simple cross-platform app, I don't want to have to know four languages to do it. I only want to use the single-purpose language if I really need to. - -Watson-Hamblin argues that when companies each build their own language for their own needs, it slows down overall progress both by dividing the attention of coders and by enforcing a monolithic perspective on development within that language. "When companies are in charge of a language vs. an open-source community, it's like the difference between a corporation and a start-up," he said. Communities are more flexible and adaptive by definition. - -Of course, Apple had [a lot of very good reasons to start from scratch][10] with Swift, just as Facebook did when it invented Hack. That doesn't mean it's not going to force change on developers—some of it doubtless unwelcome. - -“As new languages are invented, it gets more hegemonic,” said Verlaguet. “It can be frustrating to have to keep up. But on the other hand, you’re more likely to have a new language to fit your exact problem. Imagine the reverse—a world where programmers used the same language for everything. It’d be a language that could do everything poorly but nothing well.” - -Lead image by [Flickr user Ruiwen Chua][11], CC 2.0 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -via: http://readwrite.com/2014/06/17/apple-swift-facebook-hack-google-dart - -译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) - -本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 - -[1]:https://developer.apple.com/swift/ -[2]:http://readwrite.com/2014/03/20/facebook-new-programming-language-hack -[3]:http://readwrite.com/author/adriana-lee#awesm=~oGfPbJlSrFBamJ -[4]:https://twitter.com/adra_la/statuses/473537386266112000 -[5]:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programming_languages -[6]:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_(programming_language) -[7]:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_(programming_language) -[8]:http://readwrite.com/2014/03/20/facebook-new-programming-language-hack -[9]:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHP -[10]:http://blog.erratasec.com/2014/06/why-it-had-to-be-swift.html#.U58BJI1dXtA -[11]:https://www.flickr.com/photos/ruiwen/3260095534 \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/sources/talk/20140623 9 ASCII Games You'll Want to Play Again and Again.md b/sources/talk/20140623 9 ASCII Games You'll Want to Play Again and Again.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..cc1cf60b2b --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/talk/20140623 9 ASCII Games You'll Want to Play Again and Again.md @@ -0,0 +1,190 @@ +9 ASCII Games You'll Want to Play Again and Again +================================================================================ +Modern Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) offer exceptional gaming capabilities, and have contributed to the trend of astonishing leaps in graphics fidelity. There is not a year that has gone by without a game being released that makes significant advances in technical graphics wizardry. Computer graphics have been advancing at a staggering pace. At the current rate of progress, in the next 10 years it may not be possible to distinguish computer graphics from reality. + +Personally, these developments do not overly interest me. I find little fascination playing games that focus so much on the visuals they neglect the essential elements. Too often the storyline and game play has been compromised for visual quality.

The vast majority of these games are aesthetically pleasing. Popular games often have full motion video, vector graphics, 3D graphics, realistic 3D rendering, animation, texturing, a physics engine, and much more. Early computer games did not have these graphic techniques. The earliest video games were text games or text-based games that used text characters rather than vector or bitmapped graphics. + +Text-based games often receive little coverage in the Linux press.

LLVM, in contrast, is relatively youthful and modular and allows free and proprietary languages to be added as modules. + +The core of LLVM is ‘open source’. GCC is copyleft and unreservedly free software and doesn’t allow plug-ins or other means to add proprietary extensions to the GCC code. The argument, as delivered by Eric Raymond, is that “FSF can no longer prevent proprietary vendors from plugging into a free compiler to improve their tools. That horse has left the barn; the strategic goal of the anti-plug-in policy has been definitively busted.” + +LLVM has been sponsored by Apple as a replacement for GCC on OS X and Apple hardware and has grown in popularity, especially among users of the BSDs. Advocates of LLVM see it as a putative replacement for GCC in the wider market for applications developers and mobile devices. The argument against GCC is that its complexity, and the commitment of its developers to copyleft licensing, constrains the possibilities for proprietary developers, who do not want to release their language or architectural specifications under a copyleft licence. Apple, of course, has a long history of antipathy to free software, and doesn’t allow applications licensed under copyleft licences to be distributed through its App Store. + +To this extent, the argument between LLVM and GCC is a retread of the historic differences between GNU/Linux and the BSDs, between ‘open source’ and free software. Open source developers allow the code to be reused in any context, free or proprietary. Free software is restrictive in that it insists that the code, and any modifications to the code, must remain free in perpetuity. Advocates of free software would argue that the integrity of copyleft licensing has been instrumental in the spread of GCC, and has taken Linux and free software into places it would not otherwise have reached, and that free software cannot be bought or corrupted by commercial or corporate interests. Open source advocates argue that open source is more free because the user has no restrictions and can do what he or she likes, including developing closed source versions of the code. + +Since the beginning, the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) was vital to the spread of free software. Compilers were a rare and expensive commodity and the compilers of the proprietary software companies were rife with ‘features’ that were non-compliant with ANSI programming standards. Porting software between different machines and operating systems was an unnecessarily complicated task. GCC, the first truly free cross-platform compiler, commoditised this process. + +GCC was a breakthrough product for applications developers and mobile device developers – not just those who were committed to the idea of free software. Not only was GCC free and portable, its ubiquity and commonality across different architectures made it easier to port software between machines and to expect robust and consistent results – as the likes of John Gilmore, Michael Tiemann and David Henkel- Wallace were to discover when they made GCC and its development the key selling point of Cygnus Solutions, the first company to make money by selling free software. + +The primary technical difference between LLVM and GCC emerges in the separation between the modules that form the ‘front ends’, ‘middle end’ and ‘back ends’ of both GCC and LLVM. ‘Front ends’ are used to interpret the code specific to the translation of a particular language. The ‘middle end’ optimises the translated code. The ‘back ends’ take the optimised code and apply the results to a specific target architecture. LLVM separates these modules into distinct entities, but for semantic and historical reasons, GCC obfuscates the separation between the modules. + +Perhaps untypically for a free software project, it is a difficult process to add a new language or architecture to GCC and the adding of proprietary plug-ins is not allowed. There is little clear separation between the modules, and the path of least resistance is to add any feature under a free software licence. The early ports of C++ and Objective C (via Apple) are cited as examples where the original developers might have preferred to keep the code in-house and proprietary, and instead released the code as free software. + +In contrast, LLVM has allowed, or perhaps even encouraged, the addition and development of proprietary languages and architectures – one example being Nvidia’s NVCC for GPU computing, based on Clang and LLVM. The source code of NVCC is inaccessible to free software or ‘open source’ developers. + +Richard Stallman’s [take on this][1] is characteristically resolute: “In the free software movement, we campaign for the freedom of the users of computing. The values of free software are fundamentally different from the values of open source, which make‘bettercode’theultimategoal. IfGCCwere to change from a free compiler into a platform for non-free compilers, it would no longer serve the goal of freedom very well. + +“The Clang and LLVM developers reach different conclusions from ours because they do not share our values and goals. They object to the measures we have taken to defend freedom because they see the inconvenience of them and do not recognise (or don’t care about) the need for them. I would guess they describe their work as ‘open source’ and do not talk about freedom.” + +The GCC developers are unlikely to compromise on the licensing terms. While LLVM is fashionable among certain sectors of industry, because it is young and new and has been quicker to jump on developing trands in programming languages, the prevailing wind is towards greater openness, and GCC’s resolve to be incorruptible and free from commercial interests, may be the greater asset in the long term. The Unix companies learnt something from the Unix wars of the Eighties and Nineties. Languages and operating systems are tools, and are better open and shared. GCC is free software and belongs to nobody. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: http://www.linuxuser.co.uk/features/staying-free-should-gcc-allow-non-free-plug-ins + +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[1]:http://lwn.net/articles/582241 \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/sources/talk/20140626 Joy of Programming--Fail Fast.md b/sources/talk/20140626 Joy of Programming--Fail Fast.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..31fe1a14fd --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/talk/20140626 Joy of Programming--Fail Fast.md @@ -0,0 +1,58 @@ +Joy of Programming: Fail Fast! +================================================================================ +![](http://www.opensourceforu.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/fail-350x262.jpg) + +> When a problem occurs in the software, it should fail immediately, in an easily noticeable way. This “fail fast” behaviour is desirable, and we’ll discuss this important concept in this column. + +At first, a “fail fast” might appear to be a bad practice affecting reliability — why should a system crash (or fail), when it can continue execution? For this, we need to understand that fail fast is very relevant in the context of Heisenbugs. + +Consider Bohrbugs, which always crash for a given input, for example, with a null-pointer access. These bugs are easier to test, reproduce and fix. Now, all experienced programmers would have faced situations where the bug that caused the crash just disappears when the software is restarted. No matter how much time and effort is spent to reproduce the problem, the bug eludes us. These bugs are known as Heisenbugs. + +The effort required to find, fix and test Heisenbugs is an order of magnitude more than the effort required for Bohrbugs. One strategy to avoid Heisenbugs is to turn them into Bohrbugs. How? By anticipating the possible cases in which Heisenbugs can arise, and trying to make them Bohrbugs. Yes, it is not easy, and it is also not always possible, but let us look at a specific example where it is useful. + +Concurrent programming is one paradigm where Heisenbugs are common. Our example is a concurrency-related issue in Java. While iterating over a Java collection, we are supposed to modify the collection only through the Iterator methods, such as the remove() method. During iteration, if another thread attempts to modify that underlying collection (because of a programming mistake), the underlying collection will get corrupted (i.e., result in an incorrect state). + +Such an incorrect state can lead to an eventual failure — or if we are fortunate (actually, unfortunate!), the program continues execution without crashing, but gives the wrong results. It is difficult to reproduce and fix these bugs, because such programming mistakes are non-deterministic. In other words, it is a Heisenbug. + +Fortunately, the Java Iterators try to detect such concurrent modifications, and if found, will throw a `ConcurrentModificationException`, instead of failing late — and that too, silently. In other words, the Java Iterators follow the “fail fast” approach. + +What if a `ConcurrentModificationException` is observed in production software? As the Javadoc for this exception observes, it “…should be used only to detect bugs.” In other words, `ConcurrentModificationExceptions` are supposed to be found and fixed during software development, and should not leak to production code. + +Well, if production software does get this exception, it is certainly a bug in the software, and should be reported to the developer and fixed. At least, we know that there was an attempt for concurrent modification of the underlying data structure, and that’s why the software failed (instead of getting wrong results from the software, or failing later with some other symptoms, for which it is not feasible to trace the root cause). + +The “fail-safe” approach is meant for developing robust code. A very good example of writing fail-safe code is using assertions. Unfortunately, there is a lot of unnecessary controversy surrounding the use of asserts. The main criticism is this: the checks are enabled in the development version, and disabled in release versions. + +However, this criticism is wrong: asserts are never meant to replace the defensive checks that should be put in place in the release version of the software. For example, asserts should not be used to check if the argument passed to a function is null or not. Instead, an if condition should be used to check if the argument is passed correctly, or else an exception, or a premature return, should be performed, as appropriate to the context. However, asserts can be used to do additional checks for assumptions that are made in the code, which are supposed to hold true. For example, a condition that checks that the stack is not empty after a push operation is performed on it (i.e., checking for “invariants”). + +So, fail fast, be assertive, and you’re on the way to developing more robust code. + + + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via:http://www.opensourceforu.com/2011/12/joy-of-programming-fail-fast/ + +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[1]: +[2]: +[3]: +[4]: +[5]: +[6]: +[7]: +[8]: +[9]: +[10]: +[11]: +[12]: +[13]: +[14]: +[15]: +[16]: +[17]: +[18]: +[19]: +[20]: \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/sources/talk/20140626 Linux Administration--A Smart Career Choice.md b/sources/talk/20140626 Linux Administration--A Smart Career Choice.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..924056cdd1 --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/talk/20140626 Linux Administration--A Smart Career Choice.md @@ -0,0 +1,41 @@ +Linux Administration: A Smart Career Choice +================================================================================ +![](http://www.opensourceforu.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/linux.jpeg) + +> This is a good year for IT professionals with a number of new jobs in emerging technologies like Big Data and Analytics, and Social Mobile Analytics and Cloud (SMAC) as employers look to strengthen their technological force. + +If we were to believe the reports by [Dice.com][1] and Linux foundation released in mid Feb, 2014, this year will be a high octane year for Linux professionals and aspirants particularly.

So, how do you become a pro Linux system admin? Well, the right mix of certification, education and experience will obviously land you the perfect Linux job, but if you are clueless about a place to start, then a degree in computers is what you should be looking at. This could be B.Tech with Computer Science or IT as specialisation or Bachelors in Computer Application or even a Bachelor in Science with IT as specialisation will do.

However, it ultimately boils down to selecting the right certification to gain the maximum RoI. There are many Linux based certifications, the most famous of which is Red Hat Certification Program, which teaches general Linux related skills along with specific system administration skills. + +In addition to the vendor sponsored certifications, there is a vendor-independent Linux Professional Institute Certification offered by Linux Professional Institute, a non-profit organisation based in Toronto, Canada. + +These exams can be taken by anyone irrespective of their nationalities. The LPI programs have three level hierarchies that include LPIC-1: Junior Level Linux Administration, LPIC-2: Advanced Level Linux Administration and LPIC 3: Senior Level Linux Administration. In order to be considered seriously for any system administrator job opportunity in one must possess at least one of the above described certifications. The LPI also has partnerships with SUSE, which is the vendor for a famous enterprise operating system going by the same name. CompTIA, which is a global IT certification agency also provided a Linux+ certification which was phased out after an agreement between LPI and CompTIA. + +### Salaries and Benefits ### + +The compensations for Linux administrators are generally on the higher side. As per PayScale, the annual median salary is around INR 3 lacs for entry level professionals (as updated on 27th March, 2014). With experience, there is an exponential increase in the salary levels as individuals with 5+ years of experience getting annual packages in seven figures. +Well, with the grass being greener for Linux professionals this year, you won’t get a better opportunity or time for pursuing career as a Linux system administrator. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: http://www.opensourceforu.com/2014/04/career-overview-linux-administrator/ + +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[1]:http://dice.com/ \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/sources/talk/20140630 Ubuntu 14.04 LTS--Customizing Unity.md b/sources/talk/20140630 Ubuntu 14.04 LTS--Customizing Unity.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..80bb5b9492 --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/talk/20140630 Ubuntu 14.04 LTS--Customizing Unity.md @@ -0,0 +1,62 @@ +Ubuntu 14.04 LTS: Customizing Unity +================================================================================ +Although the Unity Desktop Manager has made HUGE performance and usability strides since the initial release in Ubuntu 11.10, some people are still put off by a number of the limitations in customizing the look and behavior of the window manager.

During that time, we've seen an absolutely breathtaking rate of change unlike any other development cycle that has ever existed. When it came time for Google to dive in to the smartphone wars, the company took its rapid-iteration, Web-style update cycle and applied it to an operating system, and the result has been an onslaught of continual improvement. Lately, Android has even been running on a previously unheard of six-month development cycle, and that's slower than it used to be. For the first year of Android’s commercial existence, Google was putting out a new version every two-and-a-half months. + +注：youtube视频地址开始 + + +Google's original introduction of Android, from way back in November 2007. +注：youtube视频地址结束 + +The rest of the industry, by comparison, moves at a snail's pace. Microsoft updates its desktop OS every three to five years, and Apple is on a yearly update cycle for OS X and iOS. Not every update is created equal, either. iOS has one major design revision in seven years, and the newest version of Windows Phone 8 looks very similar to Windows Phone 7. On Android, however, users are lucky if anything looks the same this year as it did last year. The Play Store, for instance, has had five major redesigns in five years. For Android, that's normal. + +Looking back, Android's existence has been a blur. It's now a historically big operating system. Almost a billion total devices have been sold, and 1.5 million devices are activated per day—but how did Google get here? With this level of scale and success, you would think there would be tons of coverage of Android’s rise from zero to hero. However, there just isn’t. Android wasn’t very popular in the early days, and until Android 4.0, screenshots could only be taken with the developer kit. These two factors mean you aren’t going to find a lot of images or information out there about the early versions of Android. + +The problem now with the lack of early coverage is that *early versions of Android are dying*. While something like Windows 1.0 will be around forever—just grab an old computer and install it—Android could be considered the first cloud-based operating system. Many features are heavily reliant on Google’s servers to function. With fewer and fewer people using old versions of Android, those servers are being shut down. And when a cloud-reliant app has its server support shut off, it will never work again—the app crashes and displays a blank screen, or it just refuses to start. + +Thanks to this “[cloud rot][1]," an Android retrospective won’t be possible in a few years. Early versions of Android will be empty, broken husks that won't function without cloud support. While it’s easy to think of this as a ways off, it's happening right now. While writing this piece, we ran into tons of apps that no longer function because the server support has been turned off. Early clients for Google Maps and the Android Market, for instance, are no longer able to communicate with Google. They either throw an error message and crash or display blank screens. Some apps even worked one week and died the next, because Google was actively shutting down servers during our writing! + +To prevent any more of Android's past from being lost to the annals of history, we did what needed to be done. This is 20+ versions of Android, seven devices, and lots and lots of screenshots cobbled together in one space.

While 1.0 was the first version to ship on hardware, there were several beta versions only released in emulator form with the SDK. The emulators were meant for development purposes only, so they don’t include any of the Google Apps, or even many core OS apps. Still, they’re our best look into the pre-release days of Android. + +![The emulator’s default qwerty-bar layout running the Milestone 3 build.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/blackberrrry.png) +The emulator’s default qwerty-bar layout running the Milestone 3 build. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Before whimsical candy code names and [cross-promotional deals with multinational food corporations][2], the first public release of Android was labeled "m3-rc20a"—"m3" standing for "Milestone 3." While Google may not have publicized the version number—and this build didn't even have a settings app to check—the browser user agent identifies this as "Android 0.5." + +In November 2007, two years after Google acquired Android and five months after the launch of the iPhone, [Android was announced][3], and the first emulator was released. Back then, the OS was still getting its feet under it. It was easily dismissed as "just a BlackBerry clone." The emulator used a qwerty-bar skin with a 320x240 display, replicating an [actual prototype device][4]. The device was built by HTC, and it seems to be the device that was codenamed "Sooner" according to many early Android accounts. But the Sooner was never released to market. + +[According to accounts][5] of the early development days of Android, when Apple finally showed off its revolutionary smartphone in January 2007, Google had to "start over" with Android—including scrapping the Sooner. Considering the Milestone 3 emulator came out almost a year after Apple's iPhone unveiling, it's surprising to see the device interface still closely mimicked the Blackberry model instead. While work had no doubt been done on the underlying system during that year of post-iPhone development, the emulator still launched with what was perceived as an "old school" interface. It didn't make a good first impression. + +At this early stage, it seems like the Android button layout had not been finalized yet. While the first commercial Android devices would use “Home," “Back," “Menu," and “Search" as the standard set of buttons, the emulator had a blank space marked as an "X" where you would expect the search button to be. The “Sooner" hardware prototype was even stranger—it had a star symbol as the fourth button. + +![From left to right: the home screen, an open notification, and the “apps" folder.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/noti3.png) +From left to right: the home screen, an open notification, and the “apps" folder. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +There was no configurable home screen or widgets, just a simple dock of icons at the bottom that could be cycled through or tapped on. While touch screen support worked for some features, Milestone 3 was primarily controlled with a five-way d-pad—an anachronism that Android still supports to this day. Even this early version of Android could do animations. Icons would grow and shrink as they entered and exited the dock’s center window. + +There was no notification panel yet, either. Notification icons showed up in the status bar (shown above as a smiley face), and the only way to open them was to press "up" on the d-pad while on the home screen. You couldn't tap on the icon to open it, nor could you access notifications from any screen other than home. When a notification was opened, the status bar expanded slightly, and the text of the notification appeared in a speech bubble. Once you had a notification, there was no manual way to clear it—apps were responsible for clearing their own notifications. + +App drawer duties were handled by a simple "Applications" folder on the left of the dock. Despite having a significant amount of functions, the Milestone 3 emulator was not very forthcoming with app icons. "Browser," "Contacts," and "Maps" were the only real apps here. Oddly, "recent calls" was elevated to a standalone icon. Because this was just an emulator, icons for core smartphone functionality were missing, like alarm, calendar, dialer, calculator, camera, gallery, and settings. Hardware prototypes demoed to the press had [many of these][6], and there was a suite of Google Apps up and running by this point. Sadly, there’s no way for us to look at them. They’re so old they can't connect to Google’s servers now anyway. + +![Milestone 3's menu system in the browser, the wallpaper interface, and the volume control.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/menu.png) +Milestone 3's menu system in the browser, the wallpaper interface, and the volume control. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The now-deprecated menu system was up and running in Milestone 3. Hitting the hardware menu button brought up a gray list with a blue gradient highlight, complete with hardware keyboard shortcuts. In the screenshot above, you can see the menu open in the browser. Going to a second level, like the zoom menu, turned the first level of the menu oddly transparent. + +Surprisingly, multitasking and background applications already worked in Milestone 3. Leaving an app didn't close it—apps would save state, even down to text left in a text box. This was a feature iOS wouldn’t get around to matching until the release of iOS 4 in 2010, and it really showed the difference between the two platforms. iOS was originally meant to be a closed platform with no third-party apps, so the platform robustness wasn’t a huge focus. Android was built from the ground up to be a powerful app platform, and ease of app development was one of the driving forces behind its creation. + +Before Android, Google was already making moves into mobile with [WAP sites][7] and [J2ME flip phone apps][8], which made it acutely aware of how difficult mobile development was. According to [The Atlantic][9], Larry Page once said of the company’s mobile efforts “We had a closet full of over 100 phones, and we were building our software pretty much one device at a time.” Developers often complain about Android fragmentation now, but the problem was much, much worse before the OS came along. + +Google’s platform strategy eventually won out, and iOS ended up slowly adding many of these app-centric features—multitasking, cross-app sharing, and an app switcher—later on. + +![The dialer screen that pops up when you press numbers on the home screen, an incoming call, and the call conferencing interface.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/call10000.png) +The dialer screen that pops up when you press numbers on the home screen, an incoming call, and the call conferencing interface. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Despite not having a dialer icon, Milestone 3 emulator was equipped with a way to make phone calls. Pressing anything on the keyboard would bring up the screen on the left, which was a hybrid dialer/contact search. Entering only numbers and hitting the green phone hardware button would start a phone call, and letters would search contacts. Contacts were not searchable by number, however. Even a direct hit on a phone number would not bring up a contact. + +Incoming calls were displayed as an almost-full-screen popup with a sweet transparent background. Once inside a call, the background became dark gray, and Milestone 3 presented the user with a surprisingly advanced feature set: mute, speakerphone, hold, and call conferencing buttons. Multiple calls were presented as overlapping, semi-transparent cards, and users had options to swap or merge calls. Swapping calls triggered a nice little card shuffle animation. + +![The contacts list, an individual contact, editing a contact, and the recent calls screen.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/recent100.png) +The contacts list, an individual contact, editing a contact, and the recent calls screen. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Contacts was a stark, black and blue list of names. Contact cards had a spot for a contact picture but couldn't assign one to the space (at least in the emulator). The only frill in this area was XMPP presence dots to the left of each name in Contacts. An always-on XMPP connection has traditionally been at the heart of Android, and that deep integration already started in Milestone 3. Android used XMPP to power a 24/7 connection to Google’s servers, powering Google Talk, cloud-to-device push messaging, and app install and uninstall messages. + +![The browser’s fake Google homepage, the address bar, and the history interface.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/browser3.png) +The browser’s fake Google homepage, the address bar, and the history interface. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The browser ran Webkit 419.3, which put it in the same era as Mac OS X 10.4's Safari 2. The homepage was not Google.com, but a hard-coded home.html file included with Android. It looked like Google.com from a thousand years ago. The browser's OS X heritage was still visible, rendering browser buttons with a glossy, Aqua-style search button. + +The tiny BlackBerry-style screen necessitated a separate address bar, which was brought up by a "go to" option in the browser's menu. While autocomplete didn't work, the address bar live searched your history as you typed. The picture on the right was the History display, which used thumbnails to display each site. The current thumbnail was in front of the other two, and scrolling through them triggered a swooping animation. But at this early stage, the browser didn’t support multiple tabs or windows—you had the current website, and that was it. + +![A video-screengrab-derived Google Maps Photoshop, the directions interface, and the gallery test view.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/maps.png) +A video-screengrab-derived Google Maps Photoshop, the directions interface, and the gallery test view. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +From the beginning, Google knew maps would be important on mobile, even shipping a Maps client on the Milestone 5 emulator. That version of Google Maps was the first thing we came across that died from cloud rot. The client can't load information from Google’s servers, so the map displayed as a blank, gray grid. Nothing works. + +Luckily, for the first screenshot above, we were able to piece together an accurate representation from the Android launch video. Old Google Maps seemed fully prepared for a non-touch device, listing hardware key shortcuts along the bottom of the screen. It’s unclear if places worked, or if Maps only ran on addresses at this point. + +Hidden behind the menu were options for search, directions, and satellite and traffic layers. The middle screenshot is of the directions UI, where you could even pick a contact address as a start or end address. Maps lacked any kind of GPS integration, however; you can't find a "my location" button anywhere. + +While there was no proper gallery, on the right is a test view for a gallery, which was hidden in the "API Demos" app. The pictures scrolled left and right, but there was no way to open photos to a full screen view. There were no photo management options either. It was essentially a test of a scrolling picture view. + +![The time picker and calendar, with ridiculous kerning issues, and the vertical list test, featuring Ars.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/datetimeshoutout.png) +The time picker and calendar, with ridiculous kerning issues, and the vertical list test, featuring Ars. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +There was also no settings app, but we can look at the original time and date pickers, thanks to the API Demos. This demonstrates how raw a lot of Android was: kerning issues all over the place, a huge gap in between the minute digits, and unevenly spaced days of the week on the calendar. While the time picker let you change each digit independently, there was no way to change months or years other than moving the day block out of the current month and on to the next or previous month. + +Keep in mind that while this may seem like dinosaur remnants from some forgotten era, this was only released six years ago. We tend to get used to the pace of technology. It's easy to look back on stuff like this and think that it was from 20 years ago. Compare this late-2007 timeframe to desktop OSes, and Microsoft was trying to sell Windows Vista to the world for almost a year, and Apple just released OS X 10.5 Leopard. + +One last Milestone 3 detail: Google gave Ars Technica a shoutout in the Milestone 3 emulator.

Released in February 2008, “Milestone 5" dumped the stretched-out BlackBerry interface and went with a totally revamped design—Google's first attempt at a finger-friendly interface. + +This build was still identified as "Android 0.5" in the browser user agent string, but Milestone 5 couldn't be more different from the first release of Android. Several core Android features can directly trace their lineage back to this version. The layout and functionality of the notification panel was almost ready to ship, and, other than a style change, the menu was present in its final form, too. Android 1.0 was only eight months away from shipping, and the basics of an OS were starting to form. + +One thing that was definitely not in its final form was the home screen. It was an unconfigurable, single-screen wallpaper with an app drawer and dock. App icons were bubbly, three-color affairs, surrounded by a square, white background with rounded corners. The app drawer consisted of an "All" button in the lower-right corner, and tapping on it expanded the list of apps out to the left. Above the "All" button was a two icon dock where "Contacts" and "Dialer" were given permanent home screen real estate. The four blocks above that were an early version of Recent Apps, showing the last apps accessed. With no left or right screens and a whole column taken up by the dock and recent apps, this layout only allowed for 21 app squares before the screen would be filled. The emulator still only sported the bare-minimum app selection, but in an actual device, this design didn't appear like it would work well. + +Holding down the "end call" button brought up a super early version of the power menu, which you can see in the rightmost picture. Google didn't have the normal smartphone nomenclature down yet: "Turn Off Screen" would best be described as "Lock screen" (although there was no lock screen) and "Turn Off Radio" would be called "Airplane mode" today. + +![From left to right: the surprisingly modern notification panel, the menu open in Google Maps (Maps doesn't work anymore), and the new finger-friendly list view.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/noti2.png) +From left to right: the surprisingly modern notification panel, the menu open in Google Maps (Maps doesn't work anymore), and the new finger-friendly list view. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +All the way back in Milestone 5, Google had the basics of the notification panel nailed down. It pulled down from the top of the screen just like it does on any modern smartphone. Current notifications displayed in a list. The first version of the notification panel was an opaque white sheet with a ribbed “handle" on the bottom and an orange dot in the center. Notifications were pressable, opening the appropriate app for that notification. No one bothered to vertically align the app icons in this list, but that's OK. This was gone in the next update. + +Sticky notifications went into an "ongoing" section at the top of the panel. In this build, that seemed to only include phone calls. The "Latest Event" notifications were clearable only after opening the appropriate app. Users surprisingly managed to sign in to Google Talk over the built-in XMPP connection. But while the notification panel displayed "new chat message," there wasn't actually an instant messaging app. + +The artwork in Milestone 5 was all new. The app icons were redrawn, and the menu switched from a boring BlackBerry-style text list to full-color, cartoony icons on a large grid. The notification panel icons switched from simple, sharp, white icons to a bubbly green design. There was now a strange black line under the signal bar indicator with no apparent purpose. The tiny list view from earlier builds really wasn't usable with a finger, so Milestone 5 came with an overall beefier layout. + +![The dialer, recent calls, and an incoming call.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/phonestuff.png) +The dialer, recent calls, and an incoming call. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +M5 was the first build to have a dialer, albeit a fairly ugly one. Numbers were displayed in a gradient-filled bar containing a bizarre speech-bubble-styled backspace button that looked like it was recycled from some other interface. Alignment issues were everywhere. The numbers on the buttons weren't vertically aligned correctly, and the “X" in the backspace button wasn’t aligned with the speech bubble. You couldn't even start a call from the dialer—with no on-screen “dial" button, a hardware button was mandatory. + +Milestone 5 had a few tabbed interfaces, all of which demonstrated an extremely odd idea of how tabs should work. The active tab was white, and the background tabs were black with a tiny strip of white at the bottom. Were background tabs supposed to "shrink" downward? There was no animation when switching tabs. It wasn't clear what the design tried to communicate. + +Recent Calls, shown in the second picture, was downgraded from a top-tier app to a tab on the dialer. It ditched the crazy crosshair UI from earlier builds and, thanks to the chunkier list view, now displayed all the necessary information in a normal list. + +Unlike the dialer, the incoming call screen had on-screen buttons for answering and ending a call. Bizarrely, the incoming call screen was stuck to the bottom of the display, rather than the top or center. It was possibly left over from the old 4:3 BlackBerry screens. + +![An active call, the disabled touchscreen error message, and the call screen with a second call on hold.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/callsstuff.png) +An active call, the disabled touchscreen error message, and the call screen with a second call on hold. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The in-call interface looked normal but made zero sense in practice. Today, to stop your face from pressing buttons while on a call, phones have proximity sensors that turn the screen off when the sensor detects something. Milestone 5 didn’t support proximity sensors, though. Google’s haphazard solution was to disable the entire touch screen during a call. At the same time, the in-call screen was clearly overhauled for touch. There were big, finger-friendly buttons; *you just couldn't touch anything*. + +M5 featured a few regressions here from the old Milestone 3 build. Many decent-looking icons from the old interface were replaced with text. Buttons like "mute" no longer offered on-screen feedback that they were active. Merging calls was cut completely. + +![The browser’s primary menu, the browser’s secondary menu, the crazy zoom control, and the window interface.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/browser4.png) +The browser’s primary menu, the browser’s secondary menu, the crazy zoom control, and the window interface. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The browser menu got the usual touch overhaul, and for the first time a "more" button appeared. It functioned as an [extra menu for your menu][1]. Rather than turning the 3x2 grid into a 3x4 grid, Milestone 5 (and many successive versions of Android) used a long, scrolling list for the additional options. Pinch zoom wasn't supported (supposedly a [concession to Apple][2]), so Android went with the ridiculous looking zoom control in the third picture above. Rather than something sensible like a horizontal, bottom-aligned zoom control, Google stuck it smack in the middle of the screen. The last picture shows the Browser’s "window" interface, which allowed you to open multiple webpages and semi-easily switch between them. + +![Google Maps’ layers section screen, search interface, and directions screen.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/amps.png) +Google Maps’ layers section screen, search interface, and directions screen. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Google Maps still didn't work, but the little UI we accessed saw significant updates. You could pick map layers, although there were only two to choose from: Satellite and Traffic. The top-aligned search interface strangely hid the status bar, while the bottom-aligned directions didn't hide the status bar. Direction's enter button was labeled with "Go," and Search's enter button was labeled with a weird curvy arrow. The list goes on and demonstrates old school Android at its worst: two functions in the same app that should look and work similarly, but these were implemented as complete opposites. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

While the Android 0.5 milestone builds were "early looks," by now 1.0 was only two months away. Thus, Android 0.9 was labeled "beta." On the other side of the aisle, Apple already released its second version of the iPhone—the iPhone 3G—a month prior. The second-gen iPhone brought a second-gen iPhone OS. Apple also launched the App Store and was already taking app submissions. Google had a lot of catching up to do. + +Google threw out a lot of the UI introduced in Milestone 5. All the artwork was redone again in full-color, and the white square icon backgrounds were tossed. While still an emulator build, 0.9 offered something that looked familiar when compared to a released version of Android. Android 0.9 had a working desktop-style home screen, a proper app drawer, multiple home screens, a lot more apps, and fully functional (first-party only) widgets. + +Milestone 5 seemingly had no plan for someone installing more than 21 apps, but Android 0.9 had a vertically scrolling app drawer accessible via a gray tab at the bottom of the screen. Back then, the app drawer was actually a drawer. Besides acting as a button, the gray tab could be pulled up the screen and would follow your finger, just like how the notification panel can be pulled down. There were additional apps like Alarm Clock, Calculator, Music, Pictures, Messaging, and Camera. + +This was the first build with a fully customizable home screen. Long pressing on an app or widget allowed you to drag it around. You could drag an app out of the app drawer and make a home screen shortcut or long press on an existing home screen shortcut to move it. + +0.9 is a reminder that Google was not the design powerhouse it is today. In fact, some of the design work for Android was farmed out to other companies at the time. You can see one sign of this in the clock widget, which contains the text “MALMO," the home town of design firm [The Astonishing Tribe][2]. + +![The “Add to Home" dialog in Android 0.9.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/widgets.png) +The “Add to Home" dialog in Android 0.9. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +There were only three widgets: Clock, Picture frame, and Search. The Search widget didn't even have a proper icon in the list—it used the Picture icon. Perhaps the most interesting item here was a "Purchased pictures" option in the wallpaper choices—a leftover from the days when purchasing ringtones on a dumbphone was a common occurrence. Google was either planning on selling wallpapers, or it was already adding a carrier at some point. The company never went through with the plan. + +![A collection of widgets, an open folder, renaming a folder, and the copy/paste menu.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/fcp.png) +A collection of widgets, an open folder, renaming a folder, and the copy/paste menu. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The left screen, above, shows the widgets for Google Search and pictures. Search didn't do anything other than give you a box to type in—there was no auto complete or additional UI. Typing in the box and hitting "Go" would launch the browser. The bottom row of icons revealed a few options for "shortcuts" from the long press menu, which created icons that opened an app to a certain screen. Individual contacts, browser bookmarks, and music playlists were all shortcuts that could all be added to the home screen in 0.9. + +"Folders" was an option under the shortcuts heading despite not being a shortcut to anything. Once a blank folder was created, icons could be dragged into it and rearranged. Unlike today, there was no indication of what was in a folder; it was always a plain, white, empty-looking icon. + +0.9 was also the first Android version to have OS-level copy/paste support. Long pressing on any text box would bring up a dialog allowing you to save or recall text from the clipboard. iOS didn't support copy/paste until almost two years later, so for a while, this was one of Android's big differentiators—and the source of many Internet arguments. + +![From left to right: Android 0.9’s new menu, recent apps, power options, and lock screen.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/stuff.jpg) +From left to right: Android 0.9’s new menu, recent apps, power options, and lock screen. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Android 0.9 was really starting to show its maturity.

Recent Apps blurred the exposed background, but that was strangely applied here and not on other popups like the "Add to home" dialog or the home screen folder view. The power menu was at least included in the blurry background club, and it was redesigned with icons and more commonly accepted names for functions.

The battery indicator was redrawn and changed to a darker shade of green, and the other status bar icons switched to black, white, and gray.

The application button was canned and replaced with the time the notification arrived, and the "latest events" text was swapped out for a simpler "notifications." The empty parts of the panel were now gray instead of white, and the bottom gripper was redesigned. The pictures seem misaligned on the bottom, but that was because Milestone 5's notification panel had white space around the bottom of the panel.

But overall, the UI was still very rough—the text box was much taller than it should be, and the "done" button with a checkbox was a one-of-a-kind icon for this screen. "Done" was basically a "close" button, which means it should probably have been a right-aligned "X" button. + +The main OS didn't have a settings screen in this build, but the browser finally had its own settings screen.

Eventually Google would fully embrace alternative smartphone communications and split up contacts and dialer into separate apps. + +Most of the dialer weirdness in Milestone 5 was wiped out in Android 0.9. The "minimizing" tabs were replaced with a normal set of dark/light tabs. The speech bubble backspace button was changed to a normal backspace icon and integrated into the number display. The number buttons were changed to circles despite everything else in the OS being a rounded rectangle (at least the text was vertically aligned this time). The company also fixed the unbalanced "one," "star," and "pound" keys from Milestone 5. + +Tapping on the number display in Android 0.9 would start a call. This was important, as it was a big step in getting rid of the hardware "Call" and "End" keys on Android devices. The incoming call screen, on the other hand, went in the complete opposite direction and removed the on-screen “Answer" and “Decline" buttons present in Android 0.5. Google would spend the next few versions fumbling around between needing and not needing hardware call buttons on certain screens. With Android 2.0 and the Motorola Droid, though, call buttons were finally made optional. + +All of the options for the in-call screen were hidden under the menu button. Milestone 5 didn't support a proximity sensor, so it took the brute force route of disabling the touch screen during a call. 0.9 was developed for the G1, which had a proximity sensor. Finally, Google didn't have to kill the touch sensor during a call. + +![The individual contacts screen and edit contacts screen for Android 0.9 and 0.5.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/CONTACTS.png) +The individual contacts screen and edit contacts screen for Android 0.9 and 0.5. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Milestone 5 had confusing labels for some contact information, like e-mail only being labeled "primary" instead of something like “primary e-mail." Android 0.9 corrected this with horizontal headers for each section. There were now action icons for each contact type on the left side, too. + +The edit contact screen was now a much busier place. There were delete buttons for every field, per-contact ringtones, an on-screen "more info" button for adding fields, a checkbox to send calls directly to voicemail, and "Save and "discard changes" buttons at the bottom of the list. Functionally, it was a big improvement over the old version, but it still looked very messy. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

The alarm app featured a plain analog clock with a scrolling list of alarms on the bottom. Rather than some kind of on/off switch, alarms were set with a checkbox.

The all-important "My Location" button finally arrived, meaning this version of Maps supported GPS location. + +The directions interface was revamped. The weird speech bubbles with misaligned plus buttons were swapped out for a more communicative bookmark icon, the swap field button moved to the left, and the go button was now labeled "Route." + +![The Google Maps layers selector, search history, and the now-broken street view mode.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/maps3.png) +The Google Maps layers selector, search history, and the now-broken street view mode. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +"Layers" was renamed "Map Mode" and switched to a radio button list. Only one map type was available at a time—you couldn't see traffic on the satellite view, for instance. Buried in the menu was a hastily thrown together search history screen. History seemed like only a proof-of-concept, with giant, blurry search icons that rammed up against search terms on a transparent background. + +Street View used to be a separate app (although it was never made available to the public), but in 0.9 it was integrated into Google Maps as a Map Mode. You could drag the little pegman around, and it would display a popup bubble showing the thumbnail for Street View. Tapping on the thumbnail would launch Street View for that area. At the time, Street View showed nothing other than a scrollable 360 degree image—there was no UI on the interface at all. + +![Our first look at the Google Maps search interface.

Like many early Android designs, Messaging wasn't sure if it should be a dark app or a light app. The first visible screen was the message list, a stark black void of nothingness that looked like it was built on top of the settings interface. After tapping on “New Message" or one of the existing conversations, though, you were taken to a white and blue scrolling list of text messages.

The primary screen was mostly just four big, chunky navigation buttons that would take you to each music view. At the bottom of the app was a "now playing" bar that only contained the track name, artist, and a play/pause button. The song list had only a bare minimum interface, only showing the song name, artist, album and runtime. Album art was the only hope of seeing any color in this app. It was displayed as a tiny thumbnail in the album view and as a big, quarter-screen image in the Now Playing view. + +Like most parts of Android in this era, the interface may not have been much to look at, but the features were there.

The G1 was released into a market dominated by the iPhone 3G and the [Nokia 1680 classic][2]. (Both of those phones went on to tie for the [best selling phone][3] of 2008, selling 35 million units each.) Hard numbers of G1 sales are tough to come by, but T-Mobile announced the device broke the one million units sold barrier in April 2009. It was way behind the competition by any measure. + +The G1 was packing a single-core 528Mhz ARM 11 processor, an Adreno 130 GPU, 192MB of RAM, and a whopping 256MB of storage for the OS and Apps. It had a 3.2-inch, 320x480 display, which was mounted to a sliding mechanism that revealed a full hardware keyboard. So while Android software has certainly come a long way, the hardware has, too. Today, we can get much better specs than this in a watch form factor: the latest [Samsung smart watch][4] has 512MB of RAM and a 1GHz dual-core processor. + +While the iPhone had a minimal amount of buttons, the G1 was the complete opposite, sporting almost every hardware control that was ever invented. It had call and end call buttons, home, back, and menu buttons, a shutter button for the camera, a volume rocker, a trackball, and, of course, about 50 keyboard buttons. Future Android devices would slowly back away from thousand-button interfaces, with nearly every new flagship lessening the number of buttons. + +But for the first time, people saw Android running on actual hardware instead of a frustratingly slow emulator. Android 1.0 didn't have the smoothness, flare, or press coverage of the iPhone. It wasn't as capable as Windows Mobile 6.5. Still, it was a good start. + +![The default app selection of Android 1.0 and 0.9.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/apps.png) +The default app selection of Android 1.0 and 0.9. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The core of Android 1.0 didn't look significantly different from the beta version released two months earlier, but the consumer product brought a ton more apps, including the full suite of Google apps. Calendar, Email, Gmail, IM, Market, Settings, Voice Dialer, and YouTube were all new. At the time, music was the dominant media type on smartphones, the king of which was the iTunes music store. Google didn't have an in-house music service of its own, so it tapped Amazon and bundled the Amazon MP3 store. + +The most important addition to Android 1.0 was the debut of Google's store, called "Android Market Beta." While most companies were content with calling their app catalog some variant of "app store"—meaning a store that sold apps and only apps—Google had much wider ambitions. It went with the much more general name of "Android Market." The idea was that the Android Market would not just house apps, but everything you needed for your Android device. + +![The first Android Market client. Screenshots show the main page, “my downloads," an app page, and an app permissions page.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/market.png) +The first Android Market client. Screenshots show the main page, “my downloads," an app page, and an app permissions page. +Photo by [Google][5] + +At the time, the Android Market only offered apps and games, and developers weren't even able to charge for them. Apple's App Store had a four-month head start on the Android Market, but Google's big differentiator was that Android's store was almost completely open. On the iPhone, apps were subject to review by Apple and had to meet design and technical guidelines. Potential apps also weren't allowed to duplicate the stock functionality. On the Android Market, developers were free to do whatever they wanted, including replacing the stock apps. The lack of control would turn out to be a blessing and a curse. It allowed developers to innovate on the existing functionality, but it also meant even the trashiest applications were allowed in. + +Today, this client is another app that can no longer communicate with Google's servers. Luckily, it's one of the few early Android apps [actually documented][6] on the Internet. The main screen provided links to the common areas like Apps, Games, Search, and Downloads, and the top section had horizontally scrolling icons for featured apps. Search results and the "My Downloads" page displayed apps in a scrolling list, showing the name, developers, cost (at this point, always free), and rating. Individual app pages showed a brief description, install count, comments and ratings from users, and the all-important install button. This early Android Market didn’t support pictures, and the only field for developers was a description box with a 500-character limit. This made things like maintaining a changelog very difficult, as the only spot to put it was in the description. + +Right out of the gate, the Android Market showed permissions that an app required before installing. This is something Apple wouldn't get around to implementing until 2012, after an iOS app was caught [uploading entire address books][7] to the cloud without the user's knowledge. The permissions display gave a full rundown of what permissions an app was using, although this version railroaded users into agreeing. There was an “OK" button, but no way to cancel other than the back button. + +![Gmail showing the inbox, the inbox with the menu open. ](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/gmail1.01.png) +Gmail showing the inbox, the inbox with the menu open. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The next most important app was probably Gmail. Most of the base functionality was here already. Unviewed messages showed up in bold, and labels displayed as colored tags. Individual messages in the Inbox showed the subject, author(s), and number of replies in a conversation. The trademark Gmail star was here—a quick tap would star or unstar something. As usual for early versions of Android, the Menu housed all the buttons on the main inbox view. Once inside a message, though, things got a little more modern, with "reply" and "forward" buttons as permanent fixtures at the bottom of the screen. Individual replies could be expanded and collapsed just by tapping on them. + +The rounded corners, shadows, and bubbly icons gave the whole app a "cartoonish" look, but it was a good start. Android's function-first philosophy was really coming through here: Gmail supported labels, threaded messaging, searching, and push e-mail. + +![Gmail’s label view, compose screen, and settings on Android 1.0.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/gmail3.png) +Gmail’s label view, compose screen, and settings on Android 1.0. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +But if you thought Gmail was ugly, the Email app took it to another level. There was no separate inbox or folder view—everything was mashed into a single screen. The app presented you with a list of folders and tapping on one would expand the contents in-line. Unread messages were denoted with a green line on the left, and that was about it for the e-mail interface.

Physical keyboards and tons of hardware buttons were mandatory, as Android devices were still not allowed to be sold without a d-pad or trackball. Base smartphone functionality like auto-rotate wasn't here yet, either. Updates for built-in apps weren't possible through the Android Market the way they were today. All the Google Apps were interwoven with the operating system. If Google wanted to update a single app, an update for the entire operating system needed to be pushed out through the carriers.

It was the first Android version to have a public, marketed code name: Cupcake. From here on out, Android releases would have alphabetical, snack-themed names. + +The most important Cupcake addition was easily the on-screen keyboard. For the first time, it was possible for OEMs to build a slate-style Android device without a thousand hardware keyboard keys and a complicated slide mechanism. + +Android's key labels could switch between uppercase and lowercase, depending on if caps lock was on or not. While it was off by default, there was an option to turn on the suggestion bar, which appeared along the top edge of the keyboard. Keys with ellipses in the popup, like the "u," above, could be held down to input [diacritical marks][1], which would display in a popup. The keyboard could switch to numbers and alternate characters, and long pressing on the period key would bring up even more punctuation. + +![Composite images of the app lineup in 1.5 and 1.1 and the notification panels from each version.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/abweave.png) +Composite images of the app lineup in 1.5 and 1.1 and the notification panels from each version. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +New icons were added for the new "Camcorder" functionality, and Google Talk was broken out from IM into its own separate app. The Amazon MP3 and Browser icons were redesigned, too. The Amazon MP3 icon was changed primarily because Amazon was planning on launching other Android apps soon, and the "A" icon was far too generic. The browser icon was easily the worst in Android 1.1, so it was changed and no longer resembled a desktop OS dialog box. The last app drawer change was to "Pictures," which was renamed to "Gallery." + +The notification panel was redesigned again as well. The panel background got a weave texture, and the gradients on notifications were smoothed out. Android 1.5 had a lot of little design changes to core OS pieces that affected all apps. On the "Clear notifications" button, you could see the new system-wide button style, which had a gradient, a thinner outline, and less shadowing than the old version. + +![The “Add to Home" dialog boxes in 1.5 and 1.1.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/widget.png) +The “Add to Home" dialog boxes in 1.5 and 1.1. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Third-party widgets were another headline feature of Cupcake, and they still remain one of Android's defining features.

The Calendar widget could only show a single event for the day, and tapping it would open the calendar. It wouldn't let you choose what calendars to display, and widgets weren't resizable—it only ever looked like this. The music widget was blue—despite the music app not having a drop of blue in it—and showed the song and artist name, along with play and next buttons. + +Also in the left shot, the first three folders on the bottom row were a new feature called "Live Folders." These were accessible under the new top-level "Folders" section in the "Add to Home" menu, which you can see in the center picture. Live Folders showed the content of an application without having to open that application. The ones that came with Cupcake were all contacts-related, showing all of the user's contacts, contacts with phone numbers, or starred contacts. + +Rather than icons, Live Folders used a simple list view that popped up over the home screen. Contacts were just for starters, Live Folders was a whole API that developers could use. Google demoed a folder of books from the Google Books app, and it was possible to have an RSS feed or top stories from a website as a live folder. Live folders were one of the few Android ideas that didn't work out, and the feature was shut down in Honeycomb. + +![The camcorder and camera UI, with on-screen shutter buttons.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/device-2013-12-26-11016071.png) +The camcorder and camera UI, with on-screen shutter buttons. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +If you couldn't tell from the new "Camcorder" icon, video recording was added to Android in 1.5. The two icons, camera and camcorder, were actually the same app, and you could jump between the two of them with an option in the menu labeled "Switch to camera" and "Switch to camcorder." Video quality on the T-Mobile G1 was not that great. A test video on "High" quality output; a .3GP video file with a resolution of 352 x 288 and a lagtastic frame rate of 4 FPS. + +Along with the new video feature, the Camera app saw a few much-needed UI tweaks. A thumbnail in the top left showed the last picture that was taken, and tapping on it would jump to the camera roll in the Gallery. The circle icon on the top right of both screens was an on-screen shutter button, meaning that, post 1.5, Android devices no longer required a hardware camera button. + +This interface was actually much closer to the Android 4.2 design than many of the subsequent camera apps. While later designs would add silly leather textures and more controls to the camera, Android went back to basics with later designs, and that 4.2 redesign shares a lot in common with this. What was a primitive layout in Android 1.5 became a minimal, full-screen viewfinder in Android 4.2. + +![Google Talk running in the Google Talk app versus Google Talk running in the IM app.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/gtalk-im.png) +Google Talk running in the Google Talk app versus Google Talk running in the IM app. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Android 1.0's IM app was used for Google Talk functionality, but in Android 1.5, Google Talk was broken off into its own app. Support for it in the IM app was removed. Google Talk (above, left) was clearly based on the IM app (above, right), but as soon as the stand alone app was released in 1.5, work on the IM app was abandoned. + +The new Google Talk app had a redesigned status bar, presence lights on the right side, and a redesigned mobile icon, which was a gray monogram of the bugdroid. The blue compose bar switched to a more sensible gray in the chat view, and the message backgrounds changed from light green and white to light green and green. With a stand alone app, Google could add Gtalk-only features like chatting "off the record," which would stop Gmail from saving a copy of every chat. + +![The calendar in Android 1.5 got a lot lighter.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/cal15.png) +The calendar in Android 1.5 got a lot lighter. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The calendar dumped the ugly white squares on a black background and changed to an all-light app. The background of everything became white, and day-of-the-week headers were changed to blue.

Instead of two big circles, the zoom controls became two halves of a rectangle with rounded corners. These new controls applied to the browser, Google Maps, and the gallery. + +The browser had lots of work done on the zoom functionality. After zooming in or out, the "1x" button would return you to the standard zoom level. The button in the bottom right corner would zoom all the way out of the page and display a magnifying rectangle over the page, which you can see in the center image. Grabbing the rectangle and releasing it would zoom that part of the page to a "1x" view. Android didn't have acceleratable scrolling, which made the max scrolling speed pretty slow—this was Google's solution for navigating a long webpage. + +Another addition to the browser was the ability to copy text on a webpage—previously you could only copy text from an input box. Selecting "copy text" from the menu would activate highlight mode, and dragging your finger over text in a Web page would highlight it. The G1’s trackball was very handy for super-precise movement like this and could control the mouse cursor. There were no draggable handles, and as soon as you lifted your finger off the screen, Android would copy the text and remove the highlight, so you had to be ridiculously precise to get any use out of the copy feature. + +The browser in Android 1.5 would crash a lot—much more than in previous versions. Just viewing Ars Technica in desktop mode would crash the browser, as did many other sites. + +![](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/lockscreen.png) +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The default lock screen and pattern lock screen both changed their empty, black backgrounds to the same wallpaper as the home screen. + +The lighter background on the pattern unlock screen revealed the sloppy job Google did on the alignment of the circles.

On June 14, 2009, Google Maps was the first packed-in Android app to be updated via the Android Market. While every other app required a full system release to be updated, Maps was broken out of the OS, free to receive out-of-cycle updates whenever a new feature was ready. +> +> Moving apps out of the core OS and onto the Android Market would be a big focus for Google going forward. In general, OTA updates were a big initiative—they required the cooperation of the OEM and the carrier, both of which could drag their feet. Updates also didn’t make it to every device. Today, the Android Market gives Google a direct line to every Android phone with no such interference from outside parties. +> +> These were problems for a later date, though. In 2009, Google had only two unskinned phones to support, and the early Android carriers were seemingly responsive to Google’s update needs. This early move would prove to be a very proactive decision on Google’s part. At first, the company went this route only with its most important properties—Maps and Gmail—but later it would port the majority of the packed-in apps to the Android Market. Later initiatives like Google Play Services even brought app APIs out of the OS and into Google’s store. +> +> As for the new Maps at the time, it gained a new directions interface, along with the ability to give mass transit and walking directions. For now, directions were given on a plain black list—turn-by-turn-style navigation would come later. +> +> June 2009 was also the time Apple launched the third iPhone—the 3GS—and the third version of iPhone OS. iPhone OS 3's headline features were mostly catch-up items like copy/paste and MMS support. Apple's hardware was still nicer, and the software was smoother, more cohesive, and better designed. Google's insane pace of development was putting it on a path to parity though. iPhone OS 2 launched just before the Milestone 5 build of Android 0.5, which makes five Android releases in the span of the yearly iOS release cycle. + +Android 1.5 gave the YouTube app the ability to upload videos to the site. Uploading was accomplished by sharing a video from the Gallery to the YouTube app, or by opening a video directly from the YouTube app. This would bring up an upload screen, where the user would set things like the video title, tags, and access rights. Photos could be uploaded to Picasa, Google's original photo site, in a similar fashion. + +There were little tweaks all over the OS. Favorite contacts now showed a picture in the contacts list (although regular contacts were still pictureless). The third picture shows the new auto-rotate option in the settings—this was also the first version to support automatically switching orientations based on readings from the devices’ internal sensors. + +Cupcake did a great job of improving Android, particularly in terms of hardware options. The on-screen keyboard meant a hardware keyboard was no longer necessary. Auto rotate brought the OS a little closer to the iPhone, and an on-screen camera shutter button meant that hardware camera buttons were now optional, too. Shortly after the release of 1.5, a second Android device came out that would show the future direction of the platform: the HTC Magic. The Magic (right) didn’t have a hardware keyboard or a camera button. It was a solid, slider-less slate device that relied on Android’s on-screen buttons to get the job done. + +Android flagships started with the most buttons possible—a hardware qwerty phone—and slowly began whittling the button count down over time. While the Magic was a big step, eliminating an entire keyboard and a camera button, it still used start and end call buttons, four system buttons, and a trackball. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

Despite the myriad of updates, Google was still adding basic functionality to Android. Donut brought support for different screen sizes, CDMA support, and a text-to-speech engine. + +Android 1.6 is a great example of an update that, today, would have little reason to exist as a separate point update. The major improvements basically boiled down to new versions of the Android Market, camera, and YouTube. In the years since, apps like this have been broken out of the OS and can be updated by Google at any time. Before all this modularization work, though, even seemingly minor app updates like this required a full OS update. + +The other big improvement—CDMA support—demonstrated that, despite the version number, Google was still busy getting basic functionality into Android. + +The Android Market was christened as version "1.6" and got a complete overhaul. The original all-black design was tossed in favor of a white app with green highlights—the Android designers were clearly using the Android mascot for inspiration. + +The new market was definitely a new style of app design for Google. The top fifth of the screen was dedicated to a banner logo announcing that this app is indeed the “Android Market." Below the banner were buttons for Apps, Games, and Downloads, and a search button was placed to the right of the banner. Below the navigation was a thumbnail display of featured apps, which could be swiped through. Below that were even more featured apps in a vertically scrolling list. + +![The new Market design, showing an app page with screenshots, the apps categories page, an app top list, and the downloads section.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/marketpages.png) +The new Market design, showing an app page with screenshots, the apps categories page, an app top list, and the downloads section. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The biggest addition to the market was the inclusion of app screenshots. Android users could finally see what an app looked like before installing it—previously they only had a brief description and user reviews to go on. Your personal star review and comment was given top billing, followed by the description, and then finally the screenshots. Viewing the screenshots would often require a bit of scrolling—if you were looking for a well-designed app, it was a lot of work. + +Tapping on App or Games would bring up a category list, which you can see in the second picture, above. After picking a category, more navigation was shown at the top of the screen, where users could see "Top paid," "Top free," or "Just in" apps within a category. While these sorta looked like buttons that would load a new screen, they were really just a clunky tabbed interface. To denote which "tab" was currently active, there were little green lights next to each button. The nicest part of this interface was that the list of apps would scroll infinitely—once you hit the bottom, more apps would load in. This made it easy to look through the list of apps, but opening any app and coming back would lose your spot in the list—you’d be kicked to the top. The downloads section would do something the new Google Play Store still can't do: simply display a list of your purchased apps. + +While the new Market definitely looked better than the old market, cohesion across apps was getting worse and worse. It seemed like each app was made by a different group with no communication about how all Android apps should look. + +![The Camera viewfinder, photo review screen, and menu.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/device-2013-12-27-145949.png) +The Camera viewfinder, photo review screen, and menu. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +For instance, the camera app was changed from a full-screen, minimal design to a boxed viewfinder with controls on the side. With the new camera app, Google tried its hand at skeuomorphism, wrapping the whole app in a leather texture roughly replicating the exterior of a classic camera. Switching between the camera and camcorder was done with a literal switch, and below that was the on-screen shutter button. + +Tapping on the previous picture thumbnail no longer launched the gallery, but a custom image viewer that was built in to the camera app. When viewing a picture the leather control area changed the camera controls to picture controls, where you could delete, share a picture, or set the picture as a wallpaper or contact image. There was still no swiping between pictures—that was still done with arrows on either side of the image. + +This second picture shows one of the first examples of designers reducing dependence on the menu button, which the Android team slowly started to realize functioned terribly for discoverability. Many app designers (including those within Google) used the menu as a dumping ground for all sorts of controls and navigational elements. Most users didn't think to hit the menu button, though, and never saw the commands. + +A common theme for future versions of Android would be moving things out of the menu and on to the main screen, making the whole OS more user-friendly. The menu button was completely killed in Android 4.0, and it's only supported in Android for legacy apps. + +![The battery and TTS settings.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/settings1.png) +The battery and TTS settings. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Donut was the first Android version to keep track of battery usage. Buried in the "About phone" menu was an option called "Battery use," which would display battery usage by app and hardware function as a percentage. Tapping on an item would bring up a separate page with relevant stats. Hardware items had buttons to jump directly to their settings, so for instance, you could change the display timeout if you felt the display battery usage was too high. + +Android 1.6 was also the first version to support text-to-speech (TTS) engines, meaning the OS and apps would be able to talk back to you in a robot voice. The “Speech synthesizer controls" would allow you to set the language, choose the speech rate, and (critically) install the voice data from the Android market. Today, Google has its own TTS engine that ships with Android, but it seems Donut was hard coded to accept one specific TTS engine made by SVOX. But SVOX’s engine didn’t ship with Donut, so tapping on “install voice data" linked to an app in the Android Market. (In the years since Donut’s heyday, the app has been taken down. It seems Android 1.6 will never speak again.) + +![From left to right: new widgets, the search bar UI, the new notification clear button, and the new gallery controls.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/grabbag16.png) +From left to right: new widgets, the search bar UI, the new notification clear button, and the new gallery controls. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +There was more work on the widget front.

Verizon licensed the word "droid" from Lucasfilm and started up the ["Droid Does" campaign][2]—a shouty, explosion-filled set of commercials that positioned the device (and by extension, Android) as the violent, ass-kicking alternative to the iPhone. The press frequently declared the T-Mobile G1 as trying to be an “iPhone Killer," but the Droid came out and owned it. + +Like the G1, the Droid had a hardware keyboard that slid out from the side of the phone. The trackball was gone, but some kind of d-pad was still mandatory, so Motorola placed a five-way d-pad on the right side of the keyboard. On the front, the Droid switched from hardware buttons to capacitive touch buttons, which were just paint on the glass touchscreen. Android 2.0 also finally allowed devices to do away with the “Call" and “End" buttons. So together with the demotion of the d-pad to the keyboard tray, the front buttons could all fit in a nice, neat strip. The result of all this streamlining was the best-looking Android device yet. The T-Mobile G1 looked like a Fisher-Price toy, but the Motorola Droid looked like an industrial tool that you could cut someone with. + +![The lock and home screens from 2.0 and 1.6.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/intro202.png) +The lock and home screens from 2.0 and 1.6. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Some of Verizon's grungy ad campaign leaked over to the software, where the default wallpaper was changed from a calm, watery vista to a picture of dirty concrete. The boot animation used a pulsing, red, Hal 9000 eyeball and the default notification tone shouted "[DRRRRROOOOIIIIDDDD][3]" every time you received an e-mail. Éclair was Android’s angsty teenager phase. + +One of the first things Android 2.0 presented to the user was a new lock screen. Slide-to-unlock was patented by Apple, so Google went with a rotary-phone-inspired arc unlock gesture. Putting your finger on the lock icon and sliding right would unlock the device, and sliding left from the volume icon would silence the phone. A thumb naturally moves in an arc, so this felt like an even more natural gesture than sliding in a straight line. + +The default homescreen layout scrapped the redundant analog clock widget and introduced what is now an Android staple: a search bar at the top of the home screen. SMS Messaging and the Android Market were also given top billing in the new layout. The app drawer tab was given a sharp redesign, too. + +![The app drawers and pictures of the “Add to Home" menus.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/icons.png) +The app drawers and pictures of the “Add to Home" menus. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Android was developed at such a breakneck pace in the early days that the Android Team could never really plan for future devices when making interface art. The Motorola Droid—with its 854×480 LCD—was a huge bump up in resolution over the 320×480 G1-era devices. Nearly everything needed to be redrawn. Starting from scratch with interface art would pretty much be the main theme of Android 2.0. + +Google took this opportunity to redesign almost every icon in Android, going from a cartoony look with an isometric perspective to straight-on icons done in a more serious style. The only set of icons that weren't redrawn were the status bar icons, which now look very out of place compared to the rest of the OS. These icons would hang around from Android 0.9 until 2.3. + +There were a few changes to the app lineup as well. Camcorder was merged into the camera, the IM app was killed, and two new Google-made apps were added: Car Home, a launcher with big buttons designed for use while driving, and Corporate Calendar, which is identical to the regular calendar except it supports Exchange instead of Google Calendar. Weirdly, Google also included two third-party apps out of the box: Facebook and Verizon's Visual VM app. (Neither works today.) The second set of pictures displays the “Add to Home screen" menu, and it received all new art, too. + +![A Places page, showing the “Navigate" option, the Navigation disclaimer, the actual Navigation screen, and the traffic info screen.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/nav2.png) +A Places page, showing the “Navigate" option, the Navigation disclaimer, the actual Navigation screen, and the traffic info screen. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Beyond a redesign, the clear headline feature of Android 2.0 was Google Maps Navigation. Google updated Maps to allow for free turn-by-turn navigation, complete with a point of interest search and text to speech, which could read the names of streets aloud just like a standalone GPS unit. Turning GPS navigation from a separate product into a free smartphone feature pretty much [destroyed][4] the standalone GPS market overnight. TomTom’s stock dropped almost 40 percent during the week of Android 2.0’s launch. + +But navigation was pretty hard to get to at first. You had to open the search box, type in a place or address, and tap on the search result. Next, after tapping on the "Navigate" button, Google showed a warning stating that Navigation was in beta and should not be trusted. After tapping on "accept," you could jump in a car, and a harsh-sounding robot voice would guide you to your destination. Hidden behind the menu button was an option to check out the traffic and accidents for the entire route. This design of Navigation hung around forever. Even when the main Google Maps interface was updated in Android 4.0, the Android 2.0 stylings in the Navigation section hung around until almost Android 4.3. + +Maps would also show a route overview, which contained traffic data for your route. At first it was just licensed by the usual traffic data provider, but later, Google would use information from Android and iOS phones running Google Maps to [crowd source traffic data][5]. It was the first step in Google's dominance of the mobile map game. After all, real-time traffic monitoring is really just a matter of how many points of data you have. Today, with hundreds of millions of Google Maps users across iOS and Android, Google has become the best provider of traffic data in the world. + +With Maps Navigation, Android finally found its killer app. Google was offering something no one else could. There was finally an answer to the "Why should I buy this over an iPhone?" question. Google Maps didn't require PC-based updating like many GPS units did, either. It was always up-to-date thanks to the cloud, and all of those updates were free. The only downside was that you needed an Internet connection to use Google Maps. + +As was greatly publicized during the [Apple Maps fiasco][6], accurate maps have become one of the most important features of a smartphone, even if no one really appreciates them when they work. Mapping the world is really only solvable with tons of person power, and today, Google’s “Geo" division is the largest in the company with more than [7,000 employees][7]. For most of these people, their job is to literally drive down every road in the world with the company’s camera-filled Street View cars. After eight years of data collection, Google has more than [five million miles][8] of 360-degree Street View imagery, and Google Maps is one of the biggest, most untouchable pillars of the company. + +![The Car Home screen, and, because we have room, a horizontal version of Navigation.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/carhome1.png) +The Car Home screen, and, because we have room, a horizontal version of Navigation. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Along with Google Maps Navigation came "Car Home," a large-buttoned home screen designed to help you use your phone while driving. It wasn't customizable, and each button was just a shortcut to a standard app. The Motorola Droid and its official [car dock accessory][9] had special magnets that would automatically trigger Car Home. While docked, pressing the hardware home button on the Droid would open Car Home instead of the normal home screen, and an on-screen home button led to the normal home screen. + +Car Home, while useful, didn’t last long—it was cut in Android 3.0 and never came back. GPS systems are almost entirely used in cars while driving, but encouraging users to do so with options like “search," which would bring up a keyboard, is something that Google’s lawyers probably weren’t very fond of. With [Apple’s CarPlay][10] and Google’s [Open Automotive Alliance][11], car computers are seeing a resurgence these days. This time, though, there is more of a focus on safety, and government organizations like the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration are on board to help out. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

The dialer changed its name to "Phone" and the dial pad buttons changed from circles to rounded rectangles. Buttons for voicemail, call, and delete were placed at the bottom. This screen is a great example of Android’s lack of design consistency in the pre-3.0 days. Just on this screen, the tabs used sharp-cornered rectangles, the dial pad used rounded rectangles, and the sides of the bottom buttons were complete circles. It was a grab bag of UI widgets where no one ever tried to make anything match anything else. + +One of the new features in Android 2.0 was "Quick Contacts," which took the form of contact thumbnails that were added all over the OS. Tapping on them would bring up a list of shortcuts to contact that person through other apps. This didn't make as much sense in the contacts app, but in something like Google Talk, being able to tap on the contact thumbnail and call the person was very handy. + +![](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/calls.png) +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Android 2.0 was finally equipped with all the on-screen buttons needed to answer and hang up a call without needing a hardware button, and the Droid took advantage of this and removed the now-redundant buttons from its design. Android’s solution to accept or reject calls was these left and right pull tabs. They work a lot like slide-to-unlock (and would later be used for slide-to-unlock)—a slide from the green button to the right would answer, and a slide from the red button to the left would reject the call. Once inside a call, it looked a lot like Android 1.6. All the options were still hidden behind the menu button. + +Someone completely phoned-in the art for the dialpad drawer. Instead of redrawing the number "5" button from Android 1.6, they just dropped in bold text that said "Dialpad" and called it a day. + +![The Calculator and Browser.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/calcubrowser.png) +The Calculator and Browser. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The calculator was revamped for the first time since its introduction in Android 0.9. The black glass balls were replaced with gradiented blue and black buttons. The crazy red on-press highlight of the old calculator was replaced with a more normal looking white outline. + +The browser's tiny website name bar grew into a full, functional address bar, along with a button for bookmarks. To save on screen real estate, the address bar was attached to the page, so the bar scrolled up with the rest of the page and left you with a full screen for reading. Android 1.6's unique magnifying rectangle zoom control and its associated buttons were tossed in favor of a much simpler double-tab-to-zoom gesture, and the browser could once again render arstechnica.com without crashing. There still wasn't pinch zoom. + +![The camera with the settings drawer open, the flash settings, and the menu over top of the photo review screen.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/cam2-these-are-settigns.jpg) +The camera with the settings drawer open, the flash settings, and the menu over top of the photo review screen. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The camera app gained an entire drawer on the left side, which opened to reveal a ton of settings.

They were no longer redundant when compared to the on-screen options.

The most important of which is that it finally supported Microsoft Exchange. The Android 2.0 version of Email finally separated the inbox and folder views instead of using the messy mashed-together view introduced in Android 1.0. Email even had a unified inbox that would weave all your messages together from different accounts. + +The inbox view put the generic Email app on even ground with the Gmail app. Combined inbox even trumped Gmail's functionality, which was an extremely rare occurrence. Email still felt like the unwanted stepchild to Gmail, though. It used the Gmail interface to view messages, which meant the inbox and folders used a black theme, and the message view oddly used a light theme. + +The bundled Facebook app had an awesome account sync feature, which would download contact pictures and information from the social network and seamlessly integrate it into the contacts app. Later down the road when Facebook and Google stopped being friends, [Google removed this feature][1]. The company said it didn't like the idea of sharing information with Facebook when Facebook wouldn't share information back, thus a better user experience lost out to company politics. + +(Sadly, we couldn't show off the Facebook app because it is yet another client that died at the hands of OAuth updates. It's no longer possible to sign in from a client this old.) + +The last picture shows the auto brightness control, which Android 2.0 was the first version to support. The Droid was equipped with an ambient light sensor, and tapping on the checkbox would make the brightness slider disappear and allow the device to automatically control the screen brightness. + +As the name would imply, Android 2.0 was Google's biggest update to date. Motorola and Verizon brought Android a slick-looking device with tons of ad dollars behind it, and for a time, “Droid" became a household name. + +### The Nexus One—enter the Google Phone ### + +![](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/nexus_4_lineup.jpg) + +In January 2010, the first Nexus device launched, appropriately called the "[Nexus One][2]". The device was a huge milestone for Google. It was the first phone designed and branded by the company, and Google planned to sell the device directly to consumers. The HTC-manufactured Nexus One had a 1GHz, single-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S1 SoC, 512MB of RAM, 512MB of storage, and a 3.7-inch AMOLED display. + +The Nexus One was meant to be a pure Android experience free of carrier meddling and crapware. Google directly controlled the updates. It was able to push software out to users as soon as it was done, rather than having to be approved by carriers, who slowed the process down and were not always eager to improve a phone customers already paid for. + +Google sold the Nexus One [directly over the Web][3], unlocked, contract-free, and at the full retail price of $529.99. While the Nexus One was also sold at T-Mobile stores on-contract for $179.99, Google wanted to change the way the cell phone industry worked in America with its online store. The idea was to pick the phone first and the carrier second, breaking the control the wireless oligarchy had over hardware in the United States. + +Google's retail revolution didn't work out though, and six months after the opening on the online phone store, Google shut the service down. Google cited the primary problem as low sales. In 2010, Internet shopping wasn't the commonplace thing it is today, and consumers weren't ready to spend $530 on a device they couldn’t first hold in their hands. The high price was also a limiting factor; smartphone shoppers were more used to paying $200 up front for devices and agreeing to a two-year contract. There was also the issue of the Motorola Droid, which came out only three months earlier and was not significantly slower. With the Droid’s huge marketing campaign and "iPhone Killer" hype, it already captured much of the same Android enthusiast market that the Nexus One was gunning for. + +While the Nexus One online sales experiment could be considered a failure, Google learned a lot. In 2012, it [relaunched its online store][4] as the "Devices" section on Google Play. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

The new OS wasn't a huge release, so it still kept the codename "Éclair." Android development was chugging along at an unheard-of pace, with Google averaging a new OS release every two-and-a-half months over the last 15 months. + +Thanks mostly to the marketing efforts of Verizon and the "Droid" line of phones, Android was gaining in popularity. The OS was still considered ugly, though, and while the Android engineers at the time seemed to have almost no formal design training, in Android 2.1 they tried to spruce things up a bit by slathering on heavy-handed animation effects wherever they could. The result was an OS that seemed to be desperately trying to prove that it could do animation effects. Many of the new additions felt more like tech demos than user-experience improvements. + +![The lock and home screens from Android 2.1 and 2.0.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/21.png) +The lock and home screens from Android 2.1 and 2.0. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Android 2.0's rotary dial lock screen was kicked to the curb after only one version and replaced with the same pull tabs the incoming call screen used. The lock screen clock was an attempt at a uniquely Android font, but as typefaces go, it was pretty hideous looking. + +One of the biggest features in Android 2.1 was "Live Wallpapers"—interactive or moving images that could be set as the wallpaper. The default Live Wallpaper was a grid of squares with blue, red, yellow, and green lights continually streaking across it. Tapping on the screen would send lights firing out in all four directions from the center of your tap. While Live Wallpapers looked neat (and was a unique feature over the iPhone), the animated backgrounds sucked up battery power and CPU cycles. It seemed to make the whole phone run a little slower. + +On the home screen, the default Google Search widget was given a lot more padding and now sits centered in its row. Page indicators now lived in the bottom left and right corners of the screen, and the number of home screen pages jumped from three to five. The app drawer tab at the bottom was replaced with an icon showing a grid of squares, a metaphor that Google still uses today. + +![A picture showing the app drawer design and a composite image showing the app selection for Android 2.1 and 2.0.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/21icons.png) +A picture showing the app drawer design and a composite image showing the app selection for Android 2.1 and 2.0. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +With the new app drawer icon came a totally new app drawer. Instead of a tabbed container that lifted up from the bottom of the screen, the app drawer displayed as a full-screen interface. The carbon fiber weave was removed, and the background switched to a plain black background—a decision that would stick around all the way up to KitKat. + +Google decided to add a floating, semi-transparent home icon to the bottom of the app drawer to give people an easy way out of the full-screen tab interface. This could be seen as a precursor to the on-screen home button that was introduced in Android 4.0. + +The app drawer was given a tacky graphics effect, too. While scrolling, the icons at the top and bottom of the list would bend inward and appear to move deeper into the phone, sort of like the opening scroll in Star Wars. + +There were a few changes to the icons. "Amazon MP3" and "Alarm Clock" both lost their first names, along with their premium alphabetical real-estate at the top of the app drawer. Two new apps showed up: News and Weather, and Google Voice, which was Google's telecommunication service. Since the Nexus One was not a Verizon phone, Verizon's Visual Voicemail app was dumped. + +![The revamped clock app.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/clo2ck.png) +The revamped clock app. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Along with the name change, the clock app got a total revamp. Tapping on the clock shortcut no longer opened the alarms page; instead it went to a "desk clock" interface (left picture, above) with a background that matched the wallpaper. The clock used the same font from the lock screen, pulling in weather from the new News And Weather app. + +The new alarm page cleaned up a lot of the weirder design decisions made in the old version. The analog clock and selectable clock designs were dead. The checkboxes were replaced with a green on/off light, which was much easier to parse than "gray check/green check." While it might be hard to see from the thumbnail (click for a bigger version), the old alarm design displayed AM and PM next to the time. The 2.1 design did away with that, only showing the relevant meridian. A digital clock was placed at the bottom, and the clock icon took you back to the desk clock interface. + +![The Gallery and individual image screens from 2.1 and 2.0.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/gallery1.png) +The Gallery and individual image screens from 2.1 and 2.0. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Google's desire to improve the look of Android was most evident in the 2.1 Gallery, which was all about heavy-handed animation effects and transparencies. When the app opened, individual pictures flew in from the top of the screen and shuffled into little piles that made up an album. When opening an album, the picture stack separated, and the photos slid into a grid formation. Everything you touched would pop open, squish, and stretch like a spring-loaded piece of Jell-o. + +There was no "normal" background for the Gallery. It would randomly pick a picture on the screen and heavily distort it for use as a background image. When that picture scrolled off-screen, it would pick a new background image, so the tone of the background always matched your pictures. + +The top left of the screen housed a breadcrumbs bar. It displayed your current location and any folders between you and the main screen—it could be thought of as an early precursor to the "Up" button that would debut in Android 3.0. In the top right was a link to the camera app, which still sported the same faux-leather design that debuted in Android 1.6—the two designs could not be more different. + +While the camera was another weird, one-off design, never was the wild UI disparity between Android apps more apparent than in the new Gallery. It didn't use Android buttons, menus, or any of the existing UI paradigms. It even hid the status bar in every screen—you could barely tell you were looking at Android. + +In the individual photo view, you could finally swipe between images, which removed the need for chunky left and right arrows. For some reason, the color-matched background wasn't on this screen. It was the only part of the app where the background is black. Zoom controls were in the top-right (still no pinch zoom), and commands were held in a single strip along the bottom of the screen. Hitting the "menu" button (software or hardware) didn't bring up a 2×3 grid of options like every other app—the items in the bottom strip just changed from two options to three other options. + +![The animation-filled Gallery app.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/gallery2.png) +The animation-filled Gallery app. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The first picture, above, shows an album view. You could scroll horizontally through a large album or use the fast scroll bar at the bottom of the screen. Long pressing on a picture (or, bizarrely, pressing the hardware menu button) would bring up a "checkbox" interface, where you could tap on several pictures to select them. After you've selected pictures, you could then batch share, delete, or rotate them. + +The menus on this screen and the next individual picture screen were semi-transparent speech bubbles that would spring out of their respective buttons when tapped on. Again, this was about as far away from the normal Android conventions as you could get. The Gallery was also one of the first apps to have an overscroll effect. When you hit the end of the photo wall, the entire surface would skew in the direction of the scrolling. + +The 2.1 Gallery was the first photo client to show your cloud-stored Picasa photos along with local pictures. These were marked with a white camera shutter icon in the bottom left corner of a thumbnail. This would later become Google+ Photos. + +No Android app before or since had looked like the gallery. There was good reason for that—it wasn’t made by Google! The app was farmed out to Cooliris, who didn't bother following a single existing Android UI paradigm. While the app was usable, all the animations and effects made it seem like a case of style over substance. + +![The "News and Weather" app showing... the news and weather.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/newsandweather.png) +The "News and Weather" app showing... the news and weather. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Compare the Gallery to the other new Android 2.1 app: News And Weather. While the Gallery was a transparency-filled animation fest, News And Weather was all about dark gradients and contrasting colors. This app powered the weather display on the desk clock app, and it even came with a home screen widget. The first screen just showed the weather and a six-day forecast for your current location. Along the top of the screens were tabs, next to the city name was a small "i" button that would bring up a temperature and precipitation graph. You could slide your finger along the graph to get exact temperatures and precipitation for any given minute. + +The big innovation in this app was swipeable tabs, an idea that would eventually become a standard Android UI convention. After the weather were a bunch of user configurable news tabs, and besides tapping on the tabs to switch to them, you could just swipe horizontally across the screen and the tab would change.

At the time, Google CEO Eric Schmidt was a member of Apple’s board of directors. In fact, during the original iPhone presentation, [Schmidt was the first person on stage][] after Steve Jobs, and he joked that the two companies were so close they could merge into “AppleGoo." + +While Google was developing Android, the relationship between the two companies slowly became contentious. Still, Google largely kept Apple happy by keeping key iPhone features, like pinch zoom, out of Android. The Nexus One, though, was the first slate-style Android flagship without a keyboard, which gave the device the same form factor as the iPhone. Combined with the newer software and Google branding, this was the last straw for Apple. According to Walter Isaacson’s biography on Steve Jobs, after seeing the Nexus One in January 2010, the Apple CEO was furious, saying "I will spend my last dying breath if I need to, and I will spend every penny of Apple's $40 billion in the bank, to right this wrong... I'm going to destroy Android, because it's a stolen product. I'm willing to go thermonuclear war on this." + +All of this happened behind closed doors, only coming out years after the Nexus One was released. The public first caught wind of this growing rift between Google and Apple when, a month after the release of Android 2.1, an update shipped for the Nexus One called “[2.1 update 1.][2]" The updated added one feature, something iOS long held over the head of Android: pinch-zoom. + +While Android supported multi-touch APIs since version 2.0, the default operating system apps stayed clear of this useful feature at the behest of Jobs. After reconciliation meetings over the Nexus One failed, there was no longer a reason to keep pinch zoom out of Android. Google pushed all their chips into the middle of the table, hit the update button, and was finally “all-in" with Android. + +With pinch zoom enabled in Google Maps, the Browser, and the Gallery, the Google-Apple smartphone war was on. In the coming years, the two companies would become bitter enemies. A month after the pinch zoom update, Apple went on the warpath, suing everyone and everything that used Android. HTC, Motorola, and Samsung were all brought to court, and some of them are still in court. Schmidt resigned from Apple’s board of directors. Google Maps and YouTube were kicked off of the iPhone, and Apple even started a rival mapping service. Today, the two players that were almost "AppleGoo" compete in smartphones, tablets, laptops, movies, TV shows, music, books, apps, e-mail, productivity software, browsers, personal assistants, cloud storage, mobile advertising, instant messaging, mapping, and set-top-boxes... and soon the two will be competing in car computers, wearables, mobile payments, and living room gaming. + +### Android 2.2 Froyo—faster and Flash-ier ### + +[Android 2.2][3] came out four months after the release of 2.1, in May 2010. Froyo featured major under-the-hood improvements for Android, all made in the name of speed. The biggest addition was just-in-time (JIT) compilation. JIT automatically converted java bytecode into native code at runtime, which led to drastic performance improvements across the board. + +The Browser got a performance boost, too, thanks to the integration of the V8 javascript engine from Chrome. This was the first of many features the Android browser would borrow from Chrome, and eventually the stock browser would be completely replaced by a mobile version of Chrome. Until that day came, though, the Android team needed to ship a browser. Pulling in Chrome parts was an easy way to upgrade. + +While Google was focusing on making its platform faster, Apple was making its platform bigger. Google's rival released the 10-inch iPad a month earlier, ushering in the modern era of tablets. While some large Froyo and Gingerbread tablets were released, Google's official response—Android 3.0 Honeycomb and the Motorola Xoom—would not arrive for nine months. + +![Froyo added a two-icon dock at the bottom and universal search.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/22-2.png) +Froyo added a two-icon dock at the bottom and universal search. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The biggest change on the Froyo homescreen was the new dock at the bottom, which filled the previously empty space to the left and right of the app drawer with phone and browser icons. Both of these icons were custom-designed white versions of the stock icons, and they were not user-configurable. + +The default layout removed all the icons, and it only stuck the new tips widget on the screen, which directed you to click on the launcher icon to access your apps. The Google Search widget gained a Google logo which doubled as a button. Tapping it would open the search interface and allow you to restrict a search by Web, apps, or contacts. + +![The downloads page showing the “update all" button, the Flash app, a flash-powered site where anything is possible, and the “move to SD" button. ](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/small-market-2.jpg) +The downloads page showing the “update all" button, the Flash app, a flash-powered site where anything is possible, and the “move to SD" button. +Photo by [Ryan Paul][4] + +Some of the best additions to Froyo were more download controls for the Android Market. There was now an “Update all" button pinned to the bottom of the Downloads page. Google also added an automatic updating feature, which would automatically install apps as long as the permissions hadn't changed; automatic updating was off by default, though. + +The second picture shows Adobe Flash Player, which was exclusive to Froyo. The app plugged in to the browser and allowed for a “full Web" experience. In 2010, this meant pages heavy with Flash navigation and video. Flash was one of Android's big differentiators compared to the iPhone. Steve Jobs started a holy war against Flash, declaring it an obsolete, buggy piece of software, and Apple would not allow it on iOS. So Android picked up the Flash ball and ran with it, giving users the option of having a semi-workable implementation on Android. + +At the time, Flash could bring even a desktop computer to its knees, so keeping it on all the time on a mobile phone delivered terrible performance. To fix this, Flash on Android's browser could be set to "on-demand"—Flash content would not load until users clicked on the Flash placeholder icon. Flash support would last on Android until 4.1, when Adobe gave up and killed the project. Ultimately Flash never really worked well on Android. The lack of Flash on the iPhone, the most popular mobile device, pushed the Internet to eventually dump the platform. + +The last picture shows the newly added ability to move apps to the SD card, which, in an era when phones came with 512MB of internal storage, was sorely needed. + +![The car app and camera app. The camera could now rotate.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/22carcam-2.png) +The car app and camera app. The camera could now rotate. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The camera app was finally updated to support portrait mode. The camera settings were moved out of the drawer and into a semi-transparent strip of buttons next to the shutter button and other controls. This new design seemed to take a lot of inspiration from the Cooliris Gallery app, with transparent, springy speech bubble popups. It was quite strange to see the high-tech Cooliris-style UI design grafted on to the leather-bound camera app—the aesthetics didn't match at all. + +![The semi-broken Facebook app is a good example of the common 2x3 navigation page.

Google Goggles was included but also broken. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Unlike the Facebook client included in Android 2.0 and 2.1, the 2.2 version still sort of works and can sign in to Facebook's servers. The Facebook app is a good example of Google's design guidelines for apps at the time, which suggested having a navigational page consisting of a 3x2 grid of icons as the main page of an app. + +This was Google's first standardized attempt at getting navigational elements out of the menu button and onto the screen, where users could find them. This design was usable, but it added an extra roadblock between launching an app and using an app. Google would later realize that when users launch an app, it was a better idea to show them content instead of an interstitial navigational screen. In Facebook for instance, opening to the news feed would be much more appropriate. And later app designs would relegate navigation to a second-tier location—first as tabs at the top of the screen, and later Google would settle on the "Navigation Drawer," a slide-out panel containing all the locations in an app. + +Also packed in with Froyo was Google Goggles, a visual search app which would try to identify the subject of a picture. It was useful for identifying works of art, landmarks, and barcodes, but not much else. These first two setup screens, along with the camera interface, are all that work in the app anymore. Today, you can't actually complete a search with a client this old. There wasn't much to see anyway; it was a camera interface that returned a search results page. + +![The Twitter app, which was an animation-filled collaboration between Google and Twitter.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/twitters-2.png) +The Twitter app, which was an animation-filled collaboration between Google and Twitter. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Froyo included the first Android Twitter app, which was actually a collaboration between Google and Twitter. At the time, a Twitter app was one of the big holes in Android's app lineup. Developers favored the iPhone, and with Apple's head start and stringent design requirements, the App Store's app selection was far superior to Android's. But Google needed a Twitter app, so it teamed up with the company to get the first version out the door. + +This represented Google's newer design language, which meant it had an interstitial navigation page and a "tech-demo" approach to animations. The Twitter app was even more heavy-handed with animation effects than the Cooliris Gallery—everything moved all the time. The clouds at the top and bottom of every page continually scrolled at varying speeds, and the Twitter bird at the bottom flapped its wings and moved its head left and right. + +The Twitter app actually featured an early precursor to the Action Bar, a persistent strip of top-aligned controls that was introduced in Android 3.0 . Along the top of every screen was a blue bar containing the Twitter logo and buttons like search, refresh, and compose tweet. The big difference between this and the later action bars was that the Twitter/Google design lacks an "Up" button in the top right corner, and it actually uses an entire second bar to show your current location within the app. In the second picture above, you can see a whole bar dedicated to the location label "Tweets" (and, of course, the continuously scrolling clouds). The Twitter logo in the second bar acted as another navigational element, sometimes showing additional drill down areas within the current section and sometimes showing the entire top-level shortcut group. + +The 2.3 Tweet stream didn't look much different from what it does today, save for the hidden action buttons (reply, retweet, etc), which were all under the right-aligned arrow buttons. They popped up in a speech bubble menu that looked just like the navigational popup. The faux-action bar was doing serious work on the create tweet page. It housed the twitter logo, remaining character count, and buttons to attach a picture, take a picture, and a contact mention button. + +The Twitter app even came with a pair of home screen widgets. The big one took up eight slots and gave you a compose bar, update button, one tweet, and left and right arrows to view more tweets. The little one showed a tweet and reply button. Tapping on the compose bar on the large widget immediately launched the main "Create Tweet," rendering the "update" button worthless. + +![Google Talk and the new USB dialog.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/talkusb.png) +Google Talk and the new USB dialog. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Elsewhere, Google Talk (and the unpictured SMS app) changed from a dark theme to a light theme, which made both of them look a lot closer to the current, modern apps. The USB storage screen that popped up when you plugged into a computer changed from a simple dialog box to a full screen interface. Instead of a text-only design, the screen now had a mutant Android/USB-stick hybrid. + +While Android 2.2 didn’t feature much in the way of user-facing features, a major UI overhaul was coming in the next two versions. Before all the UI work, though, Google wanted to revamp the core of Android. Android 2.2 accomplished that. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

Something like "Navigate to [address]" would fire up Google Maps and start turn-by-turn navigation to your stated destination. You could also send texts or e-mails, make a call, open a Website, get directions, or view a location on a map—all just by speaking. + +注：youtube视频地址 + + +Voice Actions was the culmination of a new app design philosophy for Google. Voice Actions was the most advanced voice control software for its time, and the secret was that Google wasn’t doing any computing on the device. In general, voice recognition was very CPU intensive. In fact, many voice recognition programs still have a “speed versus accuracy" setting, where users can choose how long they are willing to wait for the voice recognition algorithms to work—more CPU power means better accuracy. + +Google’s innovation was not bothering to do the voice recognition computing on the phone’s limited processor. When a command was spoken, the user’s voice was packaged up and shipped out over the Internet to Google’s cloud servers. There, Google’s farm of supercomputers pored over the message, interpreted it, and shipped it back to the phone. It was a long journey, but the Internet was finally fast enough to accomplish something like this in a second or two. + +Many people throw the phrase “cloud computing" around to mean “anything that is stored on a server," but this was actual cloud computing. Google was doing hardcore compute operations in the cloud, and because it is throwing a ridiculous amount of CPU power at the problem, the only limit to the voice recognition accuracy is the algorithms themselves. The software didn't need to be individually “trained" by each user, because everyone who used Voice Actions was training it all the time. Using the power of the Internet, Android put a supercomputer in your pocket, and, compared to existing solutions, moving the voice recognition workload from a pocket-sized computer to a room-sized computer greatly increased accuracy. + +Voice recognition had been a project of Google’s for some time, and it all started with an 800 number. [1-800-GOOG-411][1] was a free phone information service that Google launched in April 2007. It worked just like 411 information services had for years—users could call the number and ask for a phone book lookup—but Google offered it for free. No humans were involved in the lookup process, the 411 service was powered by voice recognition and a text-to-speech engine. Voice Actions was only possible after three years of the public teaching Google how to hear. + +Voice recognition was a great example of Google’s extremely long-term thinking—the company wasn't afraid to invest in a project that wouldn’t become a commercial product for several years. Today, voice recognition powers products all across Google. It’s used for voice input in the Google Search app, Android’s voice typing, and on Google.com. It’s also the primary input interface for Google Glass and [Android Wear][2]. + +The company even uses it beyond input. Google's voice recognition technology is used to transcribe YouTube videos, which powers automatic closed captioning for the hearing impaired. The transcription is even indexed by Google, so you can search for words that were said in the video. Voice is the future of many products, and this long-term planning has led Google to be one of the few major tech companies with an in-house voice recognition service. Most other voice recognition products, like Apple’s Siri and Samsung devices, are forced to use—and pay a license fee for—voice recognition from Nuance. + +With the computer hearing system up and running, Google is applying this strategy to computer vision next. That's why things like Google Goggles, Google Image Search, and [Project Tango][3] exist. Just like the days of GOOG-411, these projects are in the early stages. When [Google's robot division][4] gets off the ground with a real robot, it will need to see and hear, and Google's computer vision and hearing projects will likely give the company a head start. + +![The Nexus S, the first Nexus phone made by Samsung.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/NS500.png) +The Nexus S, the first Nexus phone made by Samsung. + +### Android 2.3 Gingerbread—the first major UI overhaul ### + +Gingerbread was released in December 2010, a whopping seven months after the release of 2.2. The wait was worth it, though, as Android 2.3 changed just about every screen in the OS. It was the first major overhaul since the initial formation of Android in version 0.9. 2.3 would kick off a series of continual revamps in an attempt to turn Android from an ugly duckling into something that was capable of holding its own—aesthetically—against the iPhone. + +And speaking of Apple, six months earlier, the company released the iPhone 4 and iOS 4, which added multitasking and Facetime video chat. Microsoft was finally back in the game, too. The company jumped into the modern smartphone era with the launch of Windows Phone 7 in November 2010. + +Android 2.3 focused a lot on the interface design, but with no direction or design documents, many apps ended up getting a new bespoke theme. Some apps went with a flatter, darker theme, some used a gradient-filled, bubbly dark theme, and others went with a high-contrast white and green look. While it wasn't cohesive, Gingerbread accomplished the goal of modernizing nearly every part of the OS. It was a good thing, too, because the next phone version of Android wouldn’t arrive until nearly a year later. + +Gingerbread’s launch device was the Nexus S, Google’s second flagship device and the first Nexus manufactured by Samsung. While today we are used to new CPU models every year, back then that wasn't the case. The Nexus S had a 1GHz Cortex A8 processor, just like the Nexus One. The GPU was slightly faster, and that was it in the speed department. It was a little bigger than the Nexus One, with a 4-inch, 800×480 AMOLED display. + +Spec wise, the Nexus S might seem like a tame upgrade, but it was actually home to a lot of firsts for Android. The Nexus S was Google’s first flagship to shun a MicroSD slot, shipping with 16GB on-board memory. The Nexus One had only 512MB of storage, but it had a MicroSD slot. Removing the SD slot simplified storage management for users—there was just one pool now—but hurt expandability for power users. It was also Google's first phone to have NFC, a special chip in the back of the phone that could transfer information when touched to another NFC chip. For now, the Nexus S could only read NFC tags—it couldn't send data. + +Thanks to some upgrades in Gingerbread, the Nexus S was one of the first Android phones to ship without a hardware D-Pad or trackball. The Nexus S was now down to just the power, volume, and the four navigation buttons. The Nexus S was also a precursor to the [crazy curved-screen phones][6] of today, as Samsung outfitted the Nexus S with a piece of slightly curved glass. + +![Gingerbread changed the status bar and wallpaper, and it added a bunch of new icons.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/appdrawershop.png) +Gingerbread changed the status bar and wallpaper, and it added a bunch of new icons. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +An upgraded "Nexus" live wallpaper was released as an exclusive addition to the Nexus S. It was basically the same idea as the Nexus One version, with its animated streaks of light. On the Nexus S, the "grid" design was removed and replaced with a wavy blue/gray background. The dock at the bottom was given square corners and colored icons. + +![The new notification panel and menu.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/32.png) +The new notification panel and menu. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The status bar was finally overhauled from the version that first debuted in 0.9. The bar was changed from a white gradient to flat black, and all the icons were redrawn in gray and green. Just about everything looked crisper and more modern thanks to the sharp-angled icon design and higher resolution. The strangest decisions were probably the removal of the time period from the status bar clock and the confusing shade of gray that was used for the signal bars. Despite gray being used for many status bar icons, and there being four gray bars in the above screenshot, Android was actually indicating no cellular signal. Green bars would indicate a signal, gray bars indicated “empty" signal slots. + +The green status bar icons in Gingerbread also doubled as a status indicator of network connectivity. If you had a working connection to Google's servers, the icons would be green, if there was no connection to Google, the icons turned white. This let you easily identify the connectivity status of your connection while you were out and about. + +The notification panel was changed from the aging Android 1.5 design. Again, we saw a UI piece that changed from a light theme to a dark theme, getting a dark gray header, black background, and black-on-gray text. + +The menu was darkened too, changing from a white background to a black one with a slight transparency. The contrast between the menu icons and the background wasn’t as strong as it should be, because the gray icons are the same color as they were on the white background. Requiring a color change would mean every developer would have to make new icons, so Google went with the preexisting gray color on black. This was a change at the system level, so this new menu would show up in every app. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

Long pressing a word would highlight it in orange and make draggable handles appear on either side of the highlight. You could then adjust the highlight using the handles and long press on the highlight to bring up options for cut, copy, and paste.

At a time when the OS was getting a darker design, the neon green banner and white list made the Market a lot brighter. + +However, the same green background image was used across phones, which meant on lower resolution devices, the green banner was even bigger. Users complained so much about the wasted screen space that later updates would make the green banner scroll up with the content. At the time, horizontal mode was even worse—it would fill the left half of the screen with the static green banner. + +![An app page from the Market showing the collapsible text section, the "My apps" section, and Google Books screenshots.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/5rest-of-market-and-books.png) +An app page from the Market showing the collapsible text section, the "My apps" section, and Google Books screenshots. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +App pages were redesigned with collapsible sections. Rather than having to scroll through a thousand-line description, text boxes were truncated to only the first few lines. After that, a "more" button needed to be tapped. This allowed users to easily scroll through the list and find things like pictures and "contact developer," which would usually be farther down the page. + +The other parts of the Android homescreen wisely toned down the green monster. The rest of the app was mostly just the old Market with new green navigational elements. Any of the old tabbed interfaces were upgraded to swipeable tabs. In the right Gingerbread image, swiping right-to-left would switch from "Top Paid" to "Top Free," which made navigation a little easier. + +Gingerbread came with the first of what would become the Google Play content stores: Google Books. The app was a basic book reader that would display books in a simple thumbnail grid. The "Get eBooks" link at the top of the screen opened the browser and loaded a mobile website where you could buy books. + +Google Books and the “My Apps" page of the Market were both examples of early precursors to the Action Bar. Just like the current guidelines, a stickied top bar featured the app icon, the name of the screen within the app, and a few controls. The layout of these two apps was actually pretty modern looking. + +![The new Google Maps.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/maps1.png) +The new Google Maps. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Google Maps (which, again, at this point was on the Android Market and not exclusive to this version of Android) now featured another action bar precursor in the form of a top-aligned control bar. This version of an early action bar featured a lot of experimenting. The majority of the bar was taken up with a search box, but you could never type into the bar. Tapping on it would open the old search interface from Android 1.x, with a totally different bar design and bubbly buttons. This 2.3 bar wasn't anything more than a really big search button. + +![The new business pages, which switched from black to white.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/maps2-Im-hungry.png) +The new business pages, which switched from black to white. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Along with Places' new top billing in the app drawer came a redesigned interface. Unlike the rest of Gingerbread, this switched from black to white. Google also kept the old buttons with rounded corners. This new version of Maps helpfully displayed the hours of operation of a business, and it offered advanced search options like places that were currently open or thresholds for ratings and price. Reviews were brought to the surface, allowing a user to easily get a feel for the current business. It was now also possible to "star" a location from the search results and save it for later. + +![The new YouTube design, which, amazingly, sort of matches the old Maps business page design.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/youtube22.png) +The new YouTube design, which, amazingly, sort of matches the old Maps business page design. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The YouTube app seemed completely separate from the rest of Android, as if whoever designed this had no idea what Gingerbread would end up looking like. Highlights were red and gray instead of green and orange, and rather than the flat black of Gingerbread, YouTube featured bubbly buttons, tabs, and bars with rounded corners and heavy gradients. The new app did get a few things right, though. All the tabs could be horizontally swiped through, and the app finally added a vertical viewing mode for videos. Android seemed like such an uncoordinated effort at this stage. It’s like someone told the YouTube team “make it black," and that was all the direction they were given. The only Android entity this seemed to match was the old Google Maps business page design. + +Despite the weird design choices, the YouTube app had the best approximation yet of an action bar. Besides the bar at the top with an app logo and a few buttons, the rightmost button was labeled “more" and would bring up options that didn’t fit in the bar. Today, this is called the “Overflow" button, and it's a standard UI piece. + +![The new Google Talk, which supported voice and video calls, and the new Voice Actions interface.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/talkvoice.png) +The new Google Talk, which supported voice and video calls, and the new Voice Actions interface. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +One last update for Gingerbread came with Android 2.3.4, which brought a new version of Google Talk. Unlike the Nexus One, the Nexus S had a front-facing camera—and the redesigned version of Google Talk had voice and video calling. The colored indicators on the right of the friends list were used to indicate not only presence, but voice and video availability. A dot was text only, a microphone was text or voice, and a camera was text, voice, or video. If available, tapping on a voice or video icon would immediately start a call with that person. + +Gingerbread is the oldest version of Android still supported by Google. Firing up a Gingerbread device and letting it sit for a few minutes will result in a ton of upgrades. Gingerbread will pull down Google Play Services, resulting in a ton of new API support, and it will upgrade to the very newest version of the Play Store. Open the Play Store and hit the update button, and just about every single Google app will be replaced with a modern version. We tried to keep this article authentic to the time Gingerbread was released, but a real user stuck on Gingerbread today will be treated to a flood of anachronisms. + +Gingerbread is still supported because there are a good number of users still running the now ancient OS. Gingerbread's staying power is due to the extremely low system requirements, making it the go-to choice for slow, cheap phones. The next few versions of Android were much more exclusive and/or demanding on hardware. For instance, Android 3.0 Honeycomb is not open source, meaning it could only be ported to a device with Google's cooperation. It was also only for tablets, making Gingerbread the newest phone version of Android for a very long time. 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich was the next phone release, but it significantly raised Android’s systems requirements, cutting off the low-end of the market. Google is hoping to get cheaper phones back on the update track with 4.4 KitKat, which brings the system requirements back down to 512MB of RAM. The passage of time helps, too—by now, even cheap SoCs have caught up to the demands of a 4.0-era version of Android. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

Compared to the iPhone, its level of polish and design just didn't hold up. On the other hand, one of the few operating systems that could stand up to iOS's aesthetic acumen was Palm's WebOS. WebOS was a cohesive, well-designed OS with several innovative features, and it was supposed to save the company from the relentless march of the iPhone. + +A year after launch though, Palm was running out of cash. The company never saw the iPhone coming, and by the time WebOS was ready, it was too late. In April 2010, Hewlett-Packard purchased Palm for $1 billion. While HP bought a product with a great user interface, the lead designer of that interface, a man by the name of Matias Duarte, did not join HP. In May 2010, just before HP took control of Palm, Duarte jumped ship to Google. HP bought the bread, but Google hired the baker. + +![The first Honeycomb device, the Motorola Xoom 10-inch tablet.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Motorola-XOOM-MZ604.jpg) +The first Honeycomb device, the Motorola Xoom 10-inch tablet. + +At Google, Duarte was named the Director of Android User Experience. This was the first time someone was publicly in charge of the way Android looked. While Matias landed at Google during the launch of Android 2.2, the first version he truly impacted was Android 3.0, Honeycomb, released in February 2011. + +By Google's own admission, Honeycomb was rushed out the door. Ten months prior, Apple modernized the tablet with the launch of the iPad, and Google wanted to respond as quickly as possible. Honeycomb was that response, a version of Android that ran on 10-inch touchscreens. Sadly, getting this OS to market was such a priority that corners were cut to save time. + +The new OS was for tablets only—phones would not be updated to Honeycomb, which spared Google the difficult problem of making the OS work on wildly different screen sizes. But with phone support off the table, a Honeycomb source drop never happened. Previous Android versions were open source, enabling the hacking community to port the latest version to all sorts of different devices. Google didn't want app developers to feel pressured to support half-broken Honeycomb phone ports, so Google kept the source to itself and strictly controlled what could and couldn't have Honeycomb. The rushed development led to problems with the software, too. At launch, Honeycomb wasn't particularly stable, SD cards didn't work, and Adobe Flash—one of Android's big differentiators—wasn't supported. + +One of the few devices that could have Honeycomb was [the Motorola Xoom][1], the flagship product for the new OS. The Xoom was a 10-inch, 16:9 tablet with 1GB of RAM and a dual-core, 1GHz Nvidia Tegra 2 processor. Despite being the launch device of a new version of Android where Google controlled the updates directly, the device wasn't called a "Nexus." The most likely reason for this was that Google didn't feel confident enough in the product to call it a flagship. + +Nevertheless, Honeycomb was a major milestone for Android. With an experienced designer in charge, the entire Android user interface was rebuilt, and most of the erratic app designs were brought to heel. Android's default apps finally looked like pieces of a cohesive whole with similar layouts and theming across the board. Redesigning Android would be a multi-version project though—Honeycomb was just the start of getting Android whipped into shape. This first draft laid the groundwork for how future versions of Android would function, but it also used a heavy-handed sci-fi theme that Google would spend the next few versions toning down. + +![The home screens of Honeycomb and Gingerbread.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/homeskreen.png) +The home screens of Honeycomb and Gingerbread. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +While Gingerbread only experimented with a sci-fi look in its photon wallpaper, Honeycomb went full sci-fi with a Tron-inspired theme for the entire OS. Everything was made black, and if you needed a contrasting color, you could choose from a few different shades of blue. Everything that was made blue was also given a "glow" effect, making the entire OS look like it was powered by alien technology. The default background was a holographic grid of hexagons (a Honeycomb! get it?) that looked like it was the floor of a teleport pad on a spaceship. + +The most important change of Honeycomb was the addition of the system bar. The Motorola Xoom had no hardware buttons other than power and volume, so a large black bar was added along the bottom of the screen that housed the navigational buttons. This meant the default Android interface no longer needed specialized hardware buttons. Previously, Android couldn't function without hardware Back, Menu, and Home keys. Now, with the software supplying all the necessary buttons, anything with a touch screen was able to run Android. + +The biggest benefit of the new software buttons was flexibility. The new app guidelines stated that apps should no longer require a hardware menu button, but for those that do, Honeycomb detects this and adds a fourth button to the system bar that allows these apps to work. The other flexibility attribute of software buttons was that they could change orientation with the device. Other than the power and volume buttons, the Xoom's orientation really wasn't important. The system bar always sat on the "bottom" of the device from the user's perspective. The trade off was that a big bar along the bottom of the screen definitely sucked up some screen real estate. To save space on 10-inch tablets, the status bar was merged into the system bar. All the usual status duties lived on the right side—there was battery and connectivity status, the time, and notification icons. + +The whole layout of the home screen changed, placing UI pieces in each of the four corners of the device. The bottom left housed the previously discussed navigational buttons, the bottom right was for status and notifications, the top left displayed text search and voice search, and the top right had buttons for the app drawer and adding widgets. + +![The new lock screen and Recent Apps interface.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/lockscreen-and-recent.png) +The new lock screen and Recent Apps interface. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +(Since the Xoom was a [heavy] 10-inch, 16:9 tablet, it was primarily meant to be used horizontally. Most apps also supported portrait mode, though, so for the sake of our formatting, we're using mostly portrait mode shots. Just keep in mind the Honeycomb shots come from a 10-inch tablet, and the Gingerbread shots come from a 3.7-inch phone. The densities of information are not directly comparable.) + +The unlock screen—after switching from a menu button to a rotary dial to slide-to-unlock—removed any required accuracy from the unlock process by switching to a circle unlock. Swiping from the center outward in any direction would unlock the device. Like the rotary unlock, this was much nicer ergonomically than forcing your finger to follow a perfectly straight path. + +The strip of thumbnails in the second picture was the interface brought up by the newly christened "Recent Apps" button, now living next to Back and Home. Rather than the group of icons brought up in Gingerbread by long-pressing on the home button, Honeycomb showed app icons and thumbnails on the screen, which made it a lot easier to switch between tasks. Recent Apps was clearly inspired by Duarte's "card" multitasking in WebOS, which used full-screen thumbnails to switch tasks. This design offered the same ease-of-recognition as WebOS's task switcher, but the smaller thumbnails allowed more apps to fit on screen at once. + +While this implementation of Recent Apps may look like what you get on a current device, this version was very early. The list didn't scroll, meaning it showed seven apps in portrait mode and only five apps in horizontal mode. Anything beyond that was bumped off the list. You also couldn't swipe away thumbnails to close apps—this was just a static list. + +Here we see the Tron influence in full effect: the thumbnails had blue outlines and an eerie glow around them. This screenshot also shows a benefit of software buttons—context. The back button closed the list of thumbnails, so instead of the normal arrow, this pointed down. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

This also shows the notification panel and the new quick settings. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The default app icons were slashed from 32 to 25, and two of those were third-party games. Since Honeycomb was not for phones and Google wanted the default apps to all be tablet-optimized, a lot of apps didn't make the cut. We lost the Amazon MP3 store, Car Home, Facebook, Google Goggles, Messaging, News and Weather, Phone, Twitter, Google Voice, and Voice Dialer. Google was quietly building a music service that would launch soon, so the Amazon MP3 store needed to go anyway. Car Home, Messaging, and Phone made little sense on a non-phone device, Facebook and Twitter still don't have tablet Android apps, and Goggles, News and Weather, and Voice Dialer were barely supported applications that most people wouldn't miss. + +Almost every app icon was new. Just like the switch from the G1 to the Motorola Droid, the biggest impetus for change was probably the bump in resolution. The Nexus S had an 800×480 display, and Gingerbread came with art assets to match. The Xoom used a whopping 1280×800 10-inch display, which meant nearly every piece of art had to go. But again, this time a real designer was in charge, and things were a lot more cohesive. Honeycomb marked the switch from a vertically scrolling app drawer to paginated horizontal drawer. This change made sense on a horizontal device, but on phones it was still much faster to navigate the app drawer with a flingable, vertical list. + +The second Honeycomb screenshot shows the new notification panel. The gray and black Gingerbread design was tossed for another straight-black panel that gave off a blue glow. At the top was a block showing the time, date, connection status, battery, and a shortcut to the notification quick settings, and below that were the actual notifications. Non-permanent notifications could now be dismissed by tapping on an "X" on the right side of the notification. Honeycomb was the first version to enable controls within a notification. The first (and at the launch of Honeycomb, only) app to take advantage of this was the new Google Music app, which placed previous, play/pause, and next buttons in its notification. These new controls could be accessed from any app and made controlling music a breeze. + +!["Add to home screen" was given a zoomed-out interface for easy organizing.

Honeycomb showed a zoomed-out view of all the home screens along the top of the screen, and it filled the bottom half of the screen with a tabbed drawer containing widgets and shortcuts. Items could be dragged out of the bottom drawer and into any of the five home screens. Gingerbread would just show a list of text, but Honeycomb showed full thumbnail previews of the widgets. This gave you a much better idea of what a widget would look like instead of an app-name-only description like "calendar." + +The larger screen of the Motorola Xoom allowed the keyboard to take on a more PC-style layout, with keys like backspace, enter, shift, and tab put in the traditional locations. The keyboard took on a blueish tint and gained even more spacing between the keys. Google also added a dedicated smiley-face button. :-) + +![Gmail on Honeycomb versus Gmail on Gingerbread with the menu open. Buttons were placed on the main screen for easier discovery.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/thebasics.png) +Gmail on Honeycomb versus Gmail on Gingerbread with the menu open. Buttons were placed on the main screen for easier discovery. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Gmail demonstrated all the new UI concepts in Honeycomb. Android 3.0 did away with hiding all the controls behind a menu button. There was now a strip of icons along the top of the screen called the Action Bar, which lifted many useful controls to the main screen where users could see them. Gmail showed buttons for search, compose, and refresh, and it put less useful controls like settings, help, and feedback in a dropdown called the "overflow" button. Tapping checkboxes or selecting text would cause the entire action bar to change to icons relating to those actions—for instance, selecting text would bring up cut, copy, and select all buttons. + +The app icon displayed in the top left corner doubled as a navigation button called "Up." While "Back" worked similarly to a browser back button, navigating to previously visited screens, "Up" would navigate up the app hierarchy. For instance, if you were in the Android Market, pressed the "Email developer" button, and Gmail opened, "Back" would take you back to the Android Market, but "Up" would take you to the Gmail inbox. "Back" might close the current app, but "Up" never would. Apps could control the "Back" button, and they usually reprogrammed it to replicate the "Up" functionality. In practice, there was rarely a difference between the two buttons. + +Honeycomb also introduced the "Fragments" API, which allowed developers to use a single app for tablets and phones. A "Fragment" was a single pane of a user interface. In the Gmail picture above, the left folder list was one fragment and the inbox was another fragment. Phones would show one fragment per screen, and tablets could show two side-by-side. The developer defined the look of individual fragments, and Android would decide how they should be displayed based on the current device. + +![The calculator finally used regular Android buttons, but someone spilled blue ink on the calendar.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/calculendar.png) +The calculator finally used regular Android buttons, but someone spilled blue ink on the calendar. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +For the first time in Android's history, the calculator got a makeover with non-custom buttons, so it actually looked like part of the OS. The bigger screen made room for more buttons, enough that all the calculator functionality could fit on one screen. The calendar greatly benefited from the extra space, gaining much more room for appointment text and controls. The action bar at the top of the screen held buttons to switch views, along with showing the current time span and common controls. Appointment blocks switched to a white background with the calendar corner only showing in the top right corner. At the bottom (or side, in horizontal view) were boxes showing the month calendar and a list of displayed calendars. + +The scale of the calendar could be adjusted, too. By performing a pinch zoom gesture, portrait week and day views could show between five and 19 hours of appointments on a single screen. The background of the calendar was made up of an uneven blue splotch, which didn't look particularly great and was tossed on later versions. + +![The new camera interface, showing off the live "Negative" effect.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/camera.png) +The new camera interface, showing off the live "Negative" effect. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The giant 10-inch Xoom tablet did have a camera, which meant that it also had a camera app. The Tron redesign finally got rid of the old faux-leather look that Google came up with in Android 1.6. The controls were laid out in a circle around the shutter button, bringing to mind the circular controls and dials on a real camera. The Cooliris-derived speech bubble popups were changed to glowing, semi-transparent black boxes. The Honeycomb screenshot shows the new "color effect" functionality, which applied a filter to the viewfinder in real time. Unlike the Gingerbread camera app, this didn't support a portrait orientation—it was limited to landscape only. Taking a portrait picture with a 10-inch tablet doesn't make much sense, but then neither does taking a landscape one. + +![The clock app didn't get quite as much love as other areas.

Google sometimes gave up when it came time to design a tablet-sized interface, like here, where it just threw the alarm interface into a tiny, centered dialog box. + +![The Music app finally got the ground-up redesign it has needed forever.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/muzack.png) +The Music app finally got the ground-up redesign it has needed forever. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +While music received a few minor additions during its life, this was really the first time since Android 0.9 that it received serious attention. The highlight of the redesign was a don't-call-it-coverflow scrolling 3D album art view, called "New and Recent." Instead of the tabs added in Android 2.1, navigation was handled by a Dropbox box in the Action Bar. While "New and Recent" had 3D scrolling album art, "Albums" used a flat grid of albums thumbnails. The other sections had totally different designs, too. "Songs" used a vertically scrolling list of text, and "Playlists," "Genres," and "Artists" used stacked album art. + +In nearly every view, every single item had its own individual menu, usually little arrows in the bottom right corner of an item. For now, these would only show "Play" and "add to Playlist," but this version of Google Music was built for the future. Google was launching a Music service soon, and those individual menus would be needed for things like viewing other content from that artist in the Music Store and managing the cloud storage versus local storage options. + +Just like the Cooliris Gallery in Android 2.1, Google Music would blow up one of your thumbnails and use it as a background. The bottom "Now Playing" bar now displayed the album art, playback controls, and a song progress bar. + +![Some of the new Google Maps was really nice, and some of it was from Android 1.5.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/maps.png) +Some of the new Google Maps was really nice, and some of it was from Android 1.5. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Google Maps received another redesign for the big screen.

Search was again the primary function, given the first spot in the action bar, but this time it was an actual search bar you could type in, instead of a search bar-shaped button that launched a completely different interface. Google finally gave up on dedicating screen space to actual zoom buttons, relying on only gestures to control the map view. While the feature has since been ported to all old versions of Maps, Honeycomb was the first version to feature 3D building outlines on the map. Dragging two fingers down on the map would "tilt" the map view and show the sides of the buildings. You could freely rotate and the buildings would adjust, too. + +Not every part of Maps was redesigned. Navigation was untouched from Gingerbread, and some core parts of the interface, like directions, were pulled straight from Android 1.6 and centered in a tiny box. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

This new design was hugely important as it came really close to Google's "cards" interface. By displaying Apps or other content in little blocks, Google could seamlessly transition its app design between screens of various sizes with minimal effort. Content could be displayed just like photos in a gallery app—feed the layout renderer a big list of content blocks, enable screen wrapping, and you were done. Bigger screens saw more blocks of content, and smaller screens only saw a few at a time. With the content display out of the way, Google added a "Categories" fragment to the right side and a big featured app carousel at the top. + +While the design was ready for an easily configurable interface, the functionality was not. The original shipping version of the market was locked to a landscape orientation and was Honeycomb-exclusive. + +![The app page and "My Apps" interface.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/device-2014-02-12-190002.png) +The app page and "My Apps" interface. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +This new market sold not only apps, but brought Books and Movies rentals into the fold as well. Google was selling books since 2010; it was only ever through a Website. The new market unified all of Google's content sales in a single location and brought it one step closer to taking on Apple's iTunes juggernaut, though selling all of these items under the "Android Market" was a bit of a branding snafu, as much of the content didn't require Android to use. + +![The browser did its best to look like Chrome, and Contacts used a two-pane interface.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/browsercontactst.png) +The browser did its best to look like Chrome, and Contacts used a two-pane interface. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The new Browser added an honest-to-goodness tabs strip at the top of the interface. While this browser wasn't Chrome, it aped a lot of Chrome's design and features. Besides the pioneering tabs-on-top interface, it added Incognito tabs, which kept no history or autocomplete records. There was also an option to have a Chrome-style new tab page consisting of thumbnails of your most-viewed webpages. + +The new Browser even synced with Chrome. After signing in to the browser, it would download your Chrome bookmarks and automatically sign in to Google Web pages with your account. Bookmarking a page was as easy as tapping on the star icon in the address bar. Just like Google Maps, the browser dumped the zoom buttons and went with all gesture controls. + +The contacts app was finally removed from the phone app and broken out into a standalone app. The previous contacts/dialer hybrid was far too phone-centric for how people use a modern smartphone. Contacts housed information for e-mails, IM, texting, addresses, birthdays, and social networks, so tying it to the phone app makes just as much sense as trying it to Google Maps. With the telephony requirements out of the way, contacts could be simplified to a tab-less list of people. Honeycomb went with a dual pane view showing the full contact list on the left and contacts on the right. This again made use of a Fragments API; a hypothetical phone version of this app could show each panel as a single screen. + +The Honeycomb version of Contacts was the first version to have a quick scroll feature. When grabbing the left scroll bar, you could quickly scroll up and down, and a letter preview showed your current spot in the list. + +![The new YouTube app looked like something out of the Matrix.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/youtubes.png) +The new YouTube app looked like something out of the Matrix. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +YouTube thankfully dumped the "unique" design Google came up with for 2.3 and gave the video service a cohesive design that looked like it belonged in Android. The main screen was a horizontally scrolling curved wall of video thumbnails that showed a most popular or (when signed in) personalized selection of videos. While Google never brought this design to phones, it could be considered an easily reconfigurable card interface. The action bar shined here as a reconfigurable toolbar. When not signed it, the action bar was filled with a search bar. When you were signed in, search shrank down to a button, and tabs for "Home," "Browse," and "Your Channel" were shown. + +![Honeycomb really liked to drive home that it was a computer interface with blue scaffolding.

Movie Studio completes the Tron look with an orange theme. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The lone new app in Honeycomb was "Movie Studio," which was not a self-explanatory app and arrived with no explanations or instructions. As far as we could tell, you could import video clips, cut them up, and add text and scene transitions. Editing video—one of the most time consuming, difficult, and processor-intensive things you can do on a computer—on a tablet felt just a little too ambitious, and Google would completely remove this app in later versions. Our favorite part of Movie Studio was that it really completed the Tron theme. While the rest of the OS used blue highlights, this was all orange. (Movie Studio is an evil program!) + +![Widgets!](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/device-2014-02-12-202224.png) +Widgets! +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Honeycomb brought a new widget framework that allowed for scrolling widgets, and the Gmail, Email, and Calendar widgets were upgraded to support it. YouTube and Books used a new widget that auto-scrolled through cards of content. By flicking up or down on the widget, you could scroll through the cards. We're not sure what the point of being constantly reminded of your book collection was, but it's there if you want it. While all of these widgets worked great on a 10-inch screen, Google never redesigned them for phones, making them practically useless on Android's most popular form factor. All the widgets had massive identifying headers and usually took up half the screen to show only a few items. + +![The scrollable Recent Apps and resizable widgets in Android 3.1.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/31new.jpg) +The scrollable Recent Apps and resizable widgets in Android 3.1. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Later versions of Honeycomb would fix many of the early problems 3.0 had. Android 3.1 was released three months after the first version of Honeycomb, and it brought several improvements. Resizable widgets were one of the biggest features added. After long pressing on a widget, a blue outline with grabbable handles would pop up around it, and dragging the handles around would resize the widget. The Recent Apps panel could now scroll vertically and held many more apps. The only feature missing from it at this point was the ability to swipe away apps. + +Today, an 0.1 upgrade is a major release, but in Honeycomb, point releases were considerably smaller. Besides the few UI tweaks, 3.1 added support for gamepads, keyboards, mice, and other input devices over USB and Bluetooth. It also offered a few more developer APIs. + +![Android 3.2's compatibility zoom and a typical stretched-out app on an Android tablet.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/device-2014-02-14-131132.jpg) +Android 3.2's compatibility zoom and a typical stretched-out app on an Android tablet. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Android 3.2 launched two months after 3.1, adding support for smaller sized tablets in the seven- to eight-inch range. It finally enabled SD card support, which the Xoom carried like a vestigial limb for the first five months of its life. + +Honeycomb was rushed out the door in order to be an ecosystem builder. No one will want an Android tablet if the tablet-specific apps aren't there, and Google knew it needed to get something in the hands of developers ASAP. At this early stage of Android's tablet ecosystem, the apps just weren't there. It was the biggest problem people had with the Xoom. + +3.2 added "Compatibility Zoom," which gave users a new option of stretching apps to the screen (as shown in the right picture) or zooming the normal app layout to fit the screen. Neither option was ideal, and without the app ecosystem to support it, Honeycomb devices sold pretty poorly. Google's tablet moves would eventually pay off though.

In May 2011, Google launched "[Google Music Beta][1]," an online music locker that came along with a new Google Music app. + +The new Google Music app for 2.2 and up took a few design cues from the Cooliris Gallery, of all things, going with a changing, blurry image for the background. Just about everything was transparent: the pop-up menus, the tabs at the top, and the now-playing bar at the bottom. Individual songs or entire playlists could be downloaded to the device for offline playback, making Google Music an easy way to make sure your music was on all your devices. Besides the mobile app, there was also a Webapp, which allowed Google Music to work on any desktop computer. + +Google didn't have content deals in place with the record companies to start a music store yet, so its stop-gap solution was to allow users to store songs online and stream them to a device.

It was the first update to come to phones since Gingerbread, which meant the majority of Android's user base went almost a year without seeing an update. 4.0 was all about shrinking the Honeycomb design to smaller devices, bringing on-screen buttons, the action bar, and the new design language to phones. + +Ice Cream Sandwich debuted on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, one of the first Android phones with a 720p screen. Along with the higher resolution, the Galaxy Nexus pushed phones to even larger sizes with a 4.65-inch screen—almost a full inch larger than the original Nexus One. This was called "too big" by many critics, but today many Android phones are even bigger. (Five inches is "normal" now.) Ice Cream Sandwich required a lot more power than Gingerbread did, and the Galaxy Nexus delivered with a dual core, 1.2Ghz TI OMAP processor and 1GB of RAM. + +In the US, the Galaxy Nexus debuted on Verizon with an LTE modem. Unlike previous Nexus devices, the most popular model—the Verizon version—was under the control of a carrier, and Google's software and updates had to be approved by Verizon before the phone could be updated. This led to delays in updates and the removal of software Verizon didn't like, namely Google Wallet. + +Thanks to the software improvements in Ice Cream Sandwich, Google finally achieved peak button removal on a phone. With the on-screen navigation buttons, the capacitive buttons could be removed, leaving the Galaxy Nexus with only power and volume buttons. + +![Android 4.0 shrunk down a lot of the Honeycomb design.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/2home.png) +Android 4.0 shrunk down a lot of the Honeycomb design. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The Tron aesthetic in Honeycomb was a little much. Immediately in Ice Cream Sandwich, Google started turning down some of the more sci-fi aspects of the design. The sci-fi clock font changed from a folded over semi-transparent thing to a thin, elegant, normal-looking font. The water ripple touch effect on the unlock circle was removed, and the alien Honeycomb clock widget was scrapped in favor of a more minimal design. The system buttons were redesigned, too, changing from blue outlines with the occasional thick side to thin, even, white outlines. The default wallpaper changed from the blue Honeycomb spaceship interior to a streaky, broken rainbow, which added some much-needed color to the default layout. + +The Honeycomb system bar features were split into a two-bar design for phones. At the top was the traditional status bar, and at the bottom was the new system bar, which housed the three system buttons: Back, Home, and Recent. A permanent search bar was added to the top of the home screen. The bar persisted on the screen the same way the dock did, so over the five home screens, it took up 20 icon spots. On the Honeycomb unlock screen, the small inner circle could be moved anywhere outside the larger circle to unlock the device. In Ice Cream Sandwich, you had to actually hit the unlock icon with the inner circle. This new accuracy requirement allowed Google to add another option to the lock screen: a camera shortcut. Dragging the inner circle to the camera icon would directly launch the camera, skipping the home screen. + +![A Phone OS meant a ton more apps, and the notification panel became a full-screen interface again.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/appsandnotic40.png) +A Phone OS meant a ton more apps, and the notification panel became a full-screen interface again. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The App drawer was still tabbed, but the "My Apps" tab from Honeycomb was replaced with "Widgets," which was a simple 2×3 thumbnail view of widgets. Like Honeycomb, this app drawer was paginated and had to be swiped through horizontally. (Android still uses this app drawer design today.) New in the app drawer was an Android Google+ app, which existed separately for some time. Along with it came a shortcut to "Messenger," the Google+ private messaging service. ("Messenger" is not to be confused with "Messaging," the stock SMS app.) + +Since we're back to a phone now, Messaging, News and Weather, Phone, and Voice Dialer returned, and Cordy, a tablet game, was removed. Our screenshots are from the Verizon variant, which, despite being a Nexus device, was sullied by crapware like "My Verizon Mobile," and "VZ Backup Assistant." In keeping with the de-Tronification theme of Ice Cream Sandwich, the Calendar and Camera icons now looked more like something from Planet Earth rather than alien artifacts. Clock, Downloads, Phone, and Android Market got new icons, too, and "Contacts" got a new icon and a new name, becoming "People." + +The Notification panel got a big overhaul, especially when compared to the [previous Gingerbread design][2]. There was now a top header featuring the date, a settings shortcut, and a "clear all." While first Honeycomb allowed users to dismiss individual notifications by tapping on an "X" in the notification, Ice Cream Sandwich's implementation was much more elegant: just swipe the individual notifications to the left or right and they cleared. Honeycomb had blue highlights, but the blue tone was all over the place. Ice Cream Sandwich unified almost everything to a single blue (hex code #33B5E5, if you want to get specific). The background of the notification panel was made transparent, and the "handle" at the bottom changed to a minimal blue circle with an opaque black background. + +![The main page of the Android Market changed back to black.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/market.png) +The main page of the Android Market changed back to black. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The Market got yet another redesign. It finally supported portrait mode again and added Music to the lineup of content you can buy in the store.

This lineup shows the categories page, featured, a top apps list, and an app page. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +These screenshots give us our first look at the refined version of the Action Bar in Ice Cream Sandwich. Almost every app got a bar at the top of the screen that housed the app icon, title of the screen, several function buttons, and a menu button on the right. The right-aligned menu button was called the "overflow" button, because it housed items that didn't fit on the main action bar. The overflow menu wasn't static, though, it gave the action bar more screen real-estate—like in horizontal mode or on a tablet—and more of the overflow menu items were shown on the action bar as actual buttons. + +New in Ice Cream Sandwich was this design style of "swipe tabs," which replaced the 2×3 interstitial navigation screen Google was previously pushing. A tab bar sat just under the Action Bar, with the center title showing the current tab and the left and right having labels for the pages to the left and right of this screen. A swipe in either direction would change tabs, or you could tap on a title to go to that tab. + +One really cool design touch on the individual app screen was that, after the pictures, it would dynamically rearrange the page based on your history with that app. If you never installed the app before, the description would be the first box. If you used the app before, the first section would be the reviews bar, which would either invite you to review the app or remind you what you thought of the app last time you installed it. The second section for a previously used app was “What’s New," since an existing user would most likely be interested in changes. + +![Recent apps and the browser were just like Honeycomb, but smaller.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/recentbrowser.png) +Recent apps and the browser were just like Honeycomb, but smaller. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Recent apps toned the Tron look way down.

It now looked like a neutral UI piece that would be at home in any time period. + +The Browser did its best to bring a tabbed experience to phones. Multi-tab browsing was placed front and center, but instead of wasting precious screen space on a tab strip, a tab button would open a Recent Apps-like interface that would show you your open tabs. Functionally, there wasn't much difference between this and the "window" view that was present in past versions of the Browser. The best addition to the Browser was a "Request desktop site" menu item, which would switch from the default mobile view to the normal site. The Browser showed off the flexibility of Google's Action Bar design, which, despite not having a top-left app icon, still functioned like any other top bar design. + +![Gmail and Google Talk—they're like Honeycomb, but smaller!](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/gmail2.png) +Gmail and Google Talk—they're like Honeycomb, but smaller! +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Gmail and Google Talk both looked like smaller versions of their Honeycomb designs, but with a few tweaks to work better on smaller screens. Gmail featured a dual Action Bar—one on the top of the screen and one on the bottom. The top of the bar showed your current folder, account, and number of unread messages, and tapping on the bar opened a navigation menu. The bottom featured all the normal buttons you would expect along with the overflow button. This dual layout was used in order display more buttons on the surface level, but in landscape mode where vertical space was at a premium, the dual bars merged into a single top bar. + +In the message view, the blue bar was "sticky" when you scrolled down. It stuck to the top of the screen, so you could always see who wrote the current message, reply, or star it. Once in a message, the thin, dark gray bar at the bottom showed your current spot in the inbox (or whatever list brought you here), and you could swipe left and right to get to other messages. + +Google Talk would let you swipe left and right to change chat windows, just like Gmail, but there the bar was at the top. + +![The new dialer and the incoming call screen, both of which we haven't seen since Gingerbread.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/inc-calls.png) +The new dialer and the incoming call screen, both of which we haven't seen since Gingerbread. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Since Honeycomb was only for tablets, some UI pieces were directly preceded by Gingerbread instead. The new Ice Cream Sandwich dialer was, of course, black and blue, and it used smaller tabs that could be swiped through. While Ice Cream Sandwich finally did the sensible thing and separated the main phone and contacts interfaces, the phone app still had its own contacts tab. There were now two spots to view your contact list—one with a dark theme and one with a light theme. With a hardware search button no longer being a requirement, the bottom row of buttons had the voicemail shortcut swapped out for a search icon. + +Google liked to have the incoming call interface mirror the lock screen, which meant Ice Cream Sandwich got a circle-unlock design. Besides the usual decline or accept options, a new button was added to the top of the circle, which would let you decline a call by sending a pre-defined text message to the caller. Swiping up and picking a message like "Can't talk now, call you later" was (and still is) much more informative than an endlessly ringing phone. + +![Honeycomb didn't have folders or a texting app, so here's Ice Cream Sandwich versus Gingerbread.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/thenonmessedupversion.png) +Honeycomb didn't have folders or a texting app, so here's Ice Cream Sandwich versus Gingerbread. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Folders were now much easier to make. In Gingerbread, you had to long press on the screen, pick "folders," and then pick "new folder." In Ice Cream Sandwich, just drag one icon on top of another, and a folder is created containing those two icons. It was dead simple and much easier than finding the hidden long-press command. + +The design was much improved, too. Gingerbread used a generic beige folder icon, but Ice Cream Sandwich actually showed you what was in the folder by stacking the first three icons on top of each other, drawing a circle around them, and using that as the folder icon. Open folder containers resized to fit the amount of icons in the folder rather than being a full-screen, mostly empty box. It looked way, way better. + +![YouTube switched to a more modern white theme and used a list view instead of the crazy 3D scrolling](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/youtubes.png) +YouTube switched to a more modern white theme and used a list view instead of the crazy 3D scrolling +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +YouTube was completely redesigned and looked less like something from The Matrix and more like, well, YouTube. It was a simple white list of vertically scrolling videos, just like the website. Making videos on your phone was given prime real estate, with the first button on the action bar dedicated to recording a video. Strangely, different screens used different YouTube logos in the top left, switching between a horizontal YouTube logo and a square one. + +YouTube used swipe tabs just about everywhere. They were placed on the main page to browse and view your account and on the video pages to switch between comments, info, and related videos. The 4.0 app showed the first signs of Google+ YouTube integration, placing a "+1" icon next to the traditional rating buttons. Eventually Google+ would completely take over YouTube, turning the comments and author pages into Google+ activity. + +![Ice Cream Sandwich tried to make things easier on everyone.

Here is a screen for tracking data usage, the new developer options with tons of analytics enabled, and the intro tutorial. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Data Usage allowed users to easily keep track of and control their data usage. The main page showed a graph of this month's data usage, and users could set thresholds to be warned about data consumption or even set a hard usage limit to avoid overage charges. All of this was done easily by dragging the horizontal orange and red threshold lines higher or lower on the chart. The vertical white bars allowed users to select a slice of time in the graph. At the bottom of the page, the data usage for the selected time was broken down by app, so users could select a spike and easily see what app was sucking up all their data. When times got really tough, in the overflow button was an option to restrict all background data. Then, only apps running in the foreground could have access to the Internet connection. + +The Developer Options typically only housed a tiny handful of settings, but in Ice Cream Sandwich the section received a huge expansion. Google added all sorts of on-screen diagnostic overlays to help app developers understand what was happening inside their app. You could view CPU usage, pointer location, and view screen updates. There were also options to change the way the system functioned, like control over animation speed, background processing, and GPU rendering. + +One of the biggest differences between Android and the iOS is Android's app drawer interface. In Ice Cream Sandwich's quest to be more user-friendly, the initial startup launched a small tutorial showing users where the app drawer was and how to drag icons out of the drawer and onto the homescreen. With the removal of the off-screen menu button and changes like this, Android 4.0 made a big push to be more inviting to new smartphone users and switchers. + +![The "touch to beam" NFC support, Google Earth, and App Info, which would let you disable crapware.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/2014-03-06-03.57.png) +The "touch to beam" NFC support, Google Earth, and App Info, which would let you disable crapware. + +Built into Ice Cream Sandwich was full support for [NFC][1]. While previous devices like the Nexus S had NFC, support was limited and the OS couldn't do much with the chip. 4.0 added a feature called Android Beam, which would let two NFC-equipped Android 4.0 devices transfer data back and forth. NFC would transmit data related to whatever was on the screen at the time, so tapping when a phone displayed a webpage would send that page to the other phone. You could also send contact information, directions, and YouTube links. When the two phones were put together, the screen zoomed out, and tapping on the zoomed-out display would send the information. + +In Android, users are not allowed to uninstall system apps, which are often integral to the function of the device. Carriers and OEMs took advantage of this and started putting crapware in the system partition, which they would often stick with software they didn't want. Android 4.0 allowed users to disable any app that couldn't be uninstalled, meaning the app remained on the system but didn't show up in the app drawer and couldn't be run. If users were willing to dig through the settings, this gave them an easy way to take control of their phone. + +Android 4.0 can be thought of as the start of the modern Android era. Most of the Google apps released around this time only worked on Android 4.0 and above. There were so many new APIs that Google wanted to take advantage of that—initially at least—support for versions below 4.0 was limited. After Ice Cream Sandwich and Honeycomb, Google was really starting to get serious about software design. In January 2012, the company [finally launched][2] *Android Design*, a design guideline site that taught Android app developers how to create apps to match the look and feel of Android. This was something iOS not only had from the start of third-party app support, but Apple enforced design so seriously that apps that did not meet the guidelines were blocked from the App Store.

The Android Market became the Google Play Store, Google Books became Google Play Books, Google Music became Google Play Music, and Android Market Movies became Google Play Movies & TV. While the app interfaces didn't change much, all four content apps got new names and icons. Content purchased in the Play Store would be downloaded to the appropriate app, and the Play Store and Play content apps all worked together to provide a fairly organized content experience. + +The Google Play update was Google's first big out-of-cycle update. Four packed-in apps were all changed without having to issue a system update—they were all updated through the Android Market/Play Store. Enabling out-of-cycle updates to individual apps was a big focus for Google, and being able to do an update like this was the culmination of an engineering effort that started in the Gingerbread era. Google had been working on "decoupling" the apps from the operating system and making everything portable enough to be distributed through the Android Market/Play Store. + +While one or two apps (mostly Maps and Gmail) had previously lived on the Android Market, from here on you'll see a lot more significant updates that have nothing to do with an operating system release. System updates require the cooperation of OEMs and carriers, so they are difficult to push out to every user. Play Store updates are completely controlled by Google, though, providing the company a direct line to users' devices. For the launch of Google Play, the Android Market updated itself to the Google Play Store, and from there, Books, Music, and Movies were all issued Google Play-flavored updates. + +The design of the Google Play apps was still all over the place. Each app looked and functioned differently, but for now, a cohesive brand was a good start. And removing "Android" from the branding was necessary because many services were available in the browser and could be used without touching an Android device at all. + +In April 2012, Google started [selling devices though the Play Store again][1], reviving the direct-to-customer model it had experimented with for the launch of the Nexus One. While it was only two years after ending the Nexus One sales, Internet shopping was now more common place, and buying something before you could hold it didn't seem as crazy as it did in 2010. + +Google also saw how price-conscious consumers became when faced with the Nexus One's $530 price tag. The first device for sale was an unlocked, GSM version of the Galaxy Nexus for $399. From there, price would go even lower. $350 has been the entry-level price for the last two Nexus smartphones, and 7-inch Nexus tablets would come in at only $200 to $220. + +Today, the Play Store sells eight different Android devices, four Chromebooks, a thermostat, and tons of accessories, and the device store is the de-facto location for a new Google product launch. New phone launches are so popular, the site usually breaks under the load, and new Nexus phones sell out in a few hours. + +### Android 4.1, Jelly Bean—Google Now points toward the future ### + +![The Asus-made Nexus 7, Android 4.1's launch device.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/ASUS_Google_Nexus_7_4_11.jpg) +The Asus-made Nexus 7, Android 4.1's launch device. + +With the release of Android 4.1, Jelly Bean in July 2012, Google settled into an Android release cadence of about every six months. The platform matured to the point where a release every three months was unnecessary, and the slower release cycle gave OEMs a chance to catch their breath. Unlike Honeycomb, point releases were now fairly major updates, with 4.1 bringing major UI and framework changes. + +One of the biggest changes in Jelly Bean that you won't be able to see in screenshots is "Project Butter," the name for a concerted effort by Google's engineers to make Android animations run smoothly at 30FPS. Core changes were made, like Vsync and triple buffering, and individual animations were optimized so they could be drawn smoothly. Animation and scrolling smoothness had always been a weak point of Android when compared to iOS. After some work on both the core animation framework and on individual apps, Jelly Bean brought Android a lot closer to iOS' smoothness. + +Along with Jelly Bean came the [Nexus][2] 7, a 7-inch tablet manufactured by Asus. Unlike the primarily horizontal Xoom, the Nexus 7 was meant to be used in portrait mode, like a large phone. The Nexus 7 showed that, after almost a year-and-a-half of ecosystem building, Google was ready to commit to the tablet market with a flagship device. Like the Nexus One and GSM Galaxy Nexus, the Nexus 7 was sold online directly by Google. While those earlier devices had shockingly high prices for consumers that were used to carrier subsidies, the Nexus 7 hit a mass market price point of only $200. The price bought you a device with a 7-inch, 1280x800 display, a quad core, 1.2 GHz Tegra 3 processor, 1GB of RAM, and 8GB of storage. The Nexus 7 was such a good value that many wondered if Google was making any money at all on its flagship tablet. + +This smaller, lighter, 7-inch form factor would be a huge success for Google, and it put the company in the rare position of being an industry trendsetter. Apple, which started with a 10-inch iPad, was eventually forced to answer the Nexus 7 and tablets like it with the iPad Mini. + +![4.1's new lock screen design, wallpaper, and the new on-press highlight on the system buttons.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/picture.png) +4.1's new lock screen design, wallpaper, and the new on-press highlight on the system buttons. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The Tron look introduced in Honeycomb was toned down a little in Ice Cream Sandwich, and Jelly Bean took things a step further. It started removing blue from large chunks of the operating system. The hint was the on-press highlights on the system buttons, which changed from blue to gray. + +![A composite image of the new app lineup and the new notification panel with expandable notifications.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/jb-apps-and-notications.png) +A composite image of the new app lineup and the new notification panel with expandable notifications. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The Notification panel was completely revamped, and we've finally arrived at the design used today in KitKat. The new panel extended to the top of the screen and covered the usual status icons, meaning the status bar was no longer visible when the panel was open. The time was prominently displayed in the top left corner, along with the date and a settings shortcut. The clear all notions button, which was represented by an "X" in Ice Cream Sandwich, changed to a stairstep icon, symbolizing the staggered sliding animation that cleared the notification panel. The bottom handle changed from a circle to a single line that ran the length of the notification panel. All the typography was changed—the notification panel now used bigger, thinner fonts for everything. This was another screen where the blue introduced in Ice Cream Sandwich and Honeycomb was removed. The notification panel was entirely gray now except for on-touch highlights. + +There was new functionality in the panel, too. Notifications were now expandable and could show much more information than the previous two-line design. It now showed up to eight lines of text and could even show buttons at the bottom of the notification. The screenshot notification had a share button at the bottom, and you could call directly from a missed call notification, or you could snooze a ringing alarm all from the notification panel. New notifications were expanded by default, but as they piled up they would collapse back to the traditional size. Dragging down on a notification with two fingers would expand it. + +![The new Google Search app, with Google Now cards, voice search, and text search.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/googlenow.png) +The new Google Search app, with Google Now cards, voice search, and text search. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The biggest feature addition to Jelly Bean for not only Android, but for Google as a whole, was the new version of the Google Search application. This introduced "Google Now," a predictive search feature. Google Now was displayed as several cards that sit below the search box, and it would offer results to searches Google thinks you care about. These were things like Google Maps searches for places you've recently looked at on your desktop computer or calendar appointment locations, the weather, and time at home while traveling. + +The new Google Search app could, of course, be launched with the Google icon, but it could also be accessed from any screen with a swipe up from the system bar. Long pressing on the system bar brought up a ring that worked similarly to the lock screen ring. The card section scrolled vertically, and cards could be a swipe away if you didn't want to see them. Voice Search was a big part of the updates. Questions weren't just blindly entered into Google; if Google knew the answer, it would also talk back using a text-To-Speech engine. And old-school text searches were, of course, still supported. Just tap on the bar and start typing. + +Google frequently called Google Now "the future of Google Search." Telling Google what you wanted wasn't good enough. Google wanted to know what you wanted before you did. Google Now put all of Google's data mining knowledge about you to work for you, and it was the company's biggest advantage against rival search services like Bing. Smartphones knew more about you than any other device you own, so the service debuted on Android. But Google slowly worked Google Now into Chrome, and eventually it will likely end up on Google.com. + +While the functionality was important, it became clear that Google Now was the most important design work to ever come out of the company, too. The white card aesthetic that this app introduced would become the foundation for Google's design of just about everything. Today, this card style is used in the Google Play Store and in all of the Play content apps, YouTube, Google Maps, Drive, Keep, Gmail, Google+, and many others. It's not just Android apps, either. Many of Google's desktop sites and iOS apps are inspired by this design. Design was historically one of Google's weak areas, but Google Now was the point where the company finally got its act together with a cohesive, company-wide design language. + +![Yet another YouTube redesign. Information density went way down.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/yotuube.png) +Yet another YouTube redesign. Information density went way down. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Another version, another YouTube redesign. This time the list view was primarily thumbnail-based, with giant images taking up most of the screen real estate. Information density tanked with the new list design. Before YouTube would display around six items per screen, now it could only display three. + +YouTube was one of the first apps to add a sliding drawer to the left side of an app, a feature which would become a standard design style across Google's apps. The drawer has links for your account and channel subscriptions, which allowed Google to kill the tabs-on-top design. + +![Google Play Service's responsibilities versus the rest of Android.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/playservicesdiagram2.png) +Google Play Service's responsibilities versus the rest of Android. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +### Google Play Services—fragmentation and making OS versions (nearly) obsolete ### + +It didn't seem like a big deal at the time, but in September 2012, Google Play Services 1.0 was automatically pushed out to every Android phone running 2.2 and up. It added a few Google+ APIs and support for OAuth 2.0. + +While this update might sound boring, Google Play Services would eventually grow to become an integral part of Android. Google Play Services acts as a shim between the normal apps and the installed Android OS, allowing Google to update or replace some core components and add APIs without having to ship out a new Android version. + +With Play Services, Google had a direct line to the core of an Android phone without having to go through OEM updates and carrier approval processes. Google used Play Services to add an entirely new location system, a malware scanner, remote wipe capabilities, and new Google Maps APIs, all without shipping an OS update. Like we mentioned at the end of the Gingerbread section, thanks to all the "portable" APIs implemented in Play Services, Gingerbread can still download a modern version of the Play Store and many other Google Apps. + +The other big benefit was compatibility with Android's user base. The newest release of an Android OS can take a very long time to get out to the majority of users, which means APIs that get tied to the latest version of the OS won't be any good to developers until the majority of the user base upgrades. Google Play Services is compatible with Froyo and above, which is 99 percent of active devices, and the updates pushed directly to phones through the Play Store. By including APIs in Google Play Services instead of Android, Google can push a new API out to almost all users in about a week. It's [a great solution][3] to many of the problems caused by version fragmentation. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

Still, the relentless march of updates must continue, and in November 2012 Android 4.2 was released. 4.2 was still called "Jelly Bean," a nod to the relatively small amount of changes that were present in this release. + +![The LG-made Nexus 4 and Samsung-made Nexus 10.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/unnamed.jpg) +The LG-made Nexus 4 and Samsung-made Nexus 10. +Photo by Google/Ron Amadeo + +Along with Android 4.2 came two flagship devices, the Nexus 4 and the Nexus 10, both of which were sold direct by Google on the Play Store. The Nexus 4 applied the Nexus 7 strategy of a quality device at a shockingly low price and sold for $300 unlocked. The Nexus 4 had a quad-core 1.5 GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro, 2GB of RAM and a 4.7-inch 1280×768 LCD. Google's new flagship phone was manufactured by LG, and with the manufacturer switch came a focus on materials and build quality. The Nexus 4 had a glass front and back, and while you couldn't drop it, it was one of the nicest-feeling Android phones to date. The biggest downside to the Nexus 4 was the lack of LTE at a time when most phones, including the Verizon Galaxy Nexus, came with the faster modem. Still, demand for the Nexus 4 greatly exceeded Google's expectations—the launch rush crashed the Play Store Web site on launch day. The device sold out in under an hour. + +The Nexus 10 was Google's first 10-inch Nexus tablet. The highlight of the device was the 2560×1600 display, which was the highest resolution in its class. All those pixels were powered by a dual core, 1.7GHz Cortex A15 processor and 2GB of RAM. With each passing month, it's looking more and more like the Nexus 10 is the first and last 10-inch Nexus tablet. Usually these devices are upgraded every year, but the Nexus 10 is now 16 months old, and there's no sign of the new model on the horizon. Google is doing well with smaller-sized 7-inch tablets, and it seems content to let partners [like Samsung][1] explore the larger end of the tablet spectrum. + +![The new lock screen, wallpaper, and clock widget design.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/JBvsjb.jpg) +The new lock screen, wallpaper, and clock widget design. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +4.2 brought lots of changes to the lock screen. The font was centered and used an extremely thick weight for the hour and a thin font for the minutes. The lock screen was now paginated and could be customized with widgets. Rather than a simple clock on the lock screen, users could replace it with another widget or add extra pages to the lock screen for more widgets. + +![The lock screen's add widget page, the list of widgets, the Gmail widget on the lock screen, and swiping over to the camera.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/locksc2reen.jpg) +The lock screen's add widget page, the list of widgets, the Gmail widget on the lock screen, and swiping over to the camera. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The lock screen now worked like a stripped-down version of the home screen. Page outlines would pop up on the left and right sides of the lock screen to hint to users that they could swipe to other pages with other widgets. Swiping to the left would show a simple blank page with a plus sign in the center, and tapping on it would bring up a list of widgets that were compatible with the lock screen. Lock screens were limited to one widget per page and could be expanded or collapsed by dragging up or down on the widget. The right-most page was reserved for the camera—a simple over would open the camera interface, but you weren't able to swipe back. + +![The new Quick Settings panel and a composite image of the app lineup.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/42fix.png) +The new Quick Settings panel and a composite image of the app lineup. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +One of the biggest additions to 4.2 was the new "Quick Settings" panel. Android 3.0 brought a way to quickly change power settings to tablets, and 4.2 finally brought that ability to phones. A new icon was added to the top right corner of the notification panel that would switch between the normal list of notifications and the new quick settings screen. Quick Settings offered faster access to screen brightness, network connections, and battery and data usage without having to dig through the full settings screen. The top level settings button in Android 4.1 was removed, and a square was added to the Quick Settings screen for it. + +There were lots of changes to the app drawer and 4.2's lineup of apps and icons. Thanks to the wider aspect ratio of the Nexus 4 (5:3 vs 16:9 on the Galaxy Nexus), the app drawer on that device could now show a five-wide grid of icons. 4.2 replaced the stock browser with Google Chrome and the stock calendar with Google Calendar, both of which brought new icon designs. The Clock and Camera apps were revamped in 4.2, and new icons were part of the deal. "Google Settings" was a new app that offered shortcuts to all the existing Google Account settings around the OS, and it had a unified look with Google Search and the new Google+ icon. Google Maps got a new icon, and Google Latitude, which was part of Google Maps, was retired in favor of Google+ location. + +![The browser was replaced with Chrome, and the new camera interface with a full screen viewfinder.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/chroemcam.jpg) +The browser was replaced with Chrome, and the new camera interface with a full screen viewfinder. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The stock browser did its best Chrome imitation for a while—it took many cues from Chrome’s interface, many Chrome features, and was even using Chrome’s javascript engine—but by the time Android 4.2 rolled around, Google deemed the Android version of Chrome ready to replace the imitator. On the surface, it didn't seem like much of a difference; the interface looked different, and early versions of Chrome for Android didn't scroll as smoothly as the stock browser. Under the hood, though, everything was different. Development of Android's main browser was now handled by the Google Chrome team instead of being a side project of the Android team. Android's default browser moved from being a stagnant app tied to Android releases to a Play Store app that was continually updated. Today there is even a beta channel that receives several updates per month. + +The camera interface was redesigned. It was now a completely full-screen app, showing a live view of the camera and places controls on top of it. The layout aesthetic had a lot in common with the [camera design][2] of Android 1.5: minimal controls with a focus on the viewfinder output. The circle of controls in the center appeared when you either held your finger on the screen or pressed the circle icon in the bottom right corner. When holding your finger down, you could slide around to pick the options around the circle, often expanding out into a sub-menu. Releasing over a highlighted item would select it. This was clearly inspired by the Quick Controls in the Android 4.0 browser, but arranging the options in a circle meant your finger was almost always blocking part of the interface. + +![The clock app, which went from a two-screen app to a feature-packed, useful application.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/clock-1.jpg) +The clock app, which went from a two-screen app to a feature-packed, useful application. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The clock application was completely revamped, going from a simple two-screen alarm clock to a world clock, alarm, timer, and stopwatch. The clock app design was like nothing Google introduced before, with an ultra-minimal aesthetic and red highlights. It seemed to be an experiment for Google. Even several versions later, this design language seemed to be confined only to this app. + +The clock's time picker was particularly well-designed. It showed a simple number pad, and it would intelligently disable numbers that would result in an invalid time. It was also impossible to set an alarm time without implicitly selecting AM or PM, forever solving the problem of accidentally setting an alarm for 9pm instead of 9am. + +![The new system UI for tablets used a stretched-out phone interface.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/tablet2.jpg) +The new system UI for tablets used a stretched-out phone interface. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The most controversial change in Android 4.2 was made to the tablet UI, which switched from a unified single bottom system bar to a two-bar interface with a top status bar and bottom system bar. The new design unified the phone and tablet interfaces, but critics said it was a waste of space to stretch the phone interface to a 10-inch landscape tablet. Since the navigation buttons had the whole bottom bar to themselves now, they were centered, just like the phone interface. + +![Multiple users on a tablet, and the new gesture-driven keyboard.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/2014-03-06-14.55.png) +Multiple users on a tablet, and the new gesture-driven keyboard. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +On tablets, Android 4.2 brought support for multiple users.

But at the 2013 edition, Google made just as many improvements without having to update the OS. + +One of the biggest things announced at the show was an update to Google Talk, Google's instant messaging platform. For a long time, Google shipped four text communication apps for Android: Google Talk, Google+ Messenger, Messaging (the SMS app), and Google Voice. Having four apps that accomplished the same task—sending a text message to someone—was very confusing for users. At I/O, Google killed Google Talk and started their messaging product over from scratch, creating [Google Hangouts][2]. While initially it only replaced Google Talk, the plan for Hangouts was to unify all of Google's various messaging apps into a single interface. + +The layout of the Hangouts UI really wasn't drastically different from Google Talk. The main page contained your open conversations, and tapping on one opened a chat page. The design was updated, the chat page now used a card-style display for each paragraph, and the chat list was now a "drawer"-style interface, meaning you could open it with a horizontal swipe. Hangouts had read receipts and a typing status indicator, and group chat was now a primary feature. + +Google+ was the center of Hangouts now, so much so that the full name of the product was actually "Google+ Hangouts." Hangouts was completely integrated with the Google+ desktop site so that video and chats could be made from one to the other. Identity and avatars were pulled from Google+, and tapping on an avatar would open that person's Google+ profile. And much like the change from Browser to Google Chrome, core Android functionality was passed off to a separate team—the Google+ team—as opposed to being a side product of the very busy Android engineers. With the Google+ takeover, Android's main IM client now became a continually developed application. It was placed into the Play Store and received fairly regular updates. + +![The new navigation drawer interface.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/navigation_drawer_overview1.png) +The new navigation drawer interface. +Photo by [developer.android.com][3] + +Google also introduced a new design element for the action bar: the navigation drawer. This drawer was shown as a set of three lines next to the app icon in the top-right corner. By tapping on it or dragging from the edge of the screen to the right, a side-mounted menu would appear. As the name implies, this was used to navigate around the app, and it would show several top-level locations within the app. This allowed the first screen to show content, and it gave users a consistent, easy-to-access place for navigation elements. The nav drawer was basically a super-sized version of the normal menu, scrollable and docked to the right side. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

Play Music's design was unified with the new Play Store released a few months earlier, with a responsive white card layout. Music was also one of the first major apps to take advantage of the new navigation drawer style. Along with the new app, Google launched Google Play Music All Access, an all-you-can-eat subscription service for $10 a month. Google Music now had a subscription plan, à la carte purchasing, and a cloud music locker. This version also introduced "Instant Mix," a mode where Google would cloud-compute a playlist of similar songs. + +![A game showing support for Google Play Games.

Developers could build Play Games support into their game, which would easily let them integrate achievements, leaderboards, multiplayer, matchmaking, user accounts, and cloud saves by using Google's back-end services. + +Play Games was the start of Google's big push into gaming. Just like standalone GPS units, flip phones, and MP3 players, smartphone makers were hoping standalone gaming devices would be turned into nothing more than a smartphone feature bullet point. Why buy a Nintendo DS or PS Vita when you had a smartphone with you? An easy-to-use multiplayer service would be a big part of this, and we've still yet to see the final consequence of this move. Today, Google and Apple are both rumored to be planning living room gaming devices. + +![Google Keep, Google's first note taking service since Google Notebook.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/goooglekeep.jpg) +Google Keep, Google's first note taking service since Google Notebook. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +It was clear some products were developed in time for presentation at Google I/O, [but the three-and-a-half hour keynote][1] was already so massive, some things were cut from being announced. Once the smoke cleared three days after Google I/O, Google introduced Google Keep, a note taking app for Android and the Web. Keep was a fairly straightforward affair, applying the responsive Google Now-style design to a note taking app. Users could change the size of the cards from a multi-column layout to a single column view. Notes could consist of plain text, checklists, voice note with automatic transcription, or pictures. Note cards could be dragged around and rearranged on the main screen, and you could even assign a color to a note. + +![Gmail 4.5, which switched to the new navigation drawer design and merged the action bars, thanks to some clever button elimination.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/gmail.png) +Gmail 4.5, which switched to the new navigation drawer design and merged the action bars, thanks to some clever button elimination. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +After I/O, not much was safe from Google's out-of-cycle updating. In June 2013, Google released a redesigned version of Gmail. The headline feature of the new design was the new navigation drawer interface that was introduced a month earlier at Google I/O. The most eye catching change was the addition of Google+ profile pictures instead of checkboxes. While the checkboxes were visibly removed, they were still there, just tap on a picture. + +![The new Google Maps, which switched to an all-white Google Now-style theme.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/newmaps11.png.) +The new Google Maps, which switched to an all-white Google Now-style theme. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +One month later, Google released a completely overhauled version of Google Maps to the Play Store. It was the first ground-up redesign of Google Maps since Ice Cream Sandwich. The new version fully adopted the Google Now white card aesthetic, and it greatly reduced the amount of stuff on the screen. The new Google Maps seemed to have a design mandate to always show a map on the screen somewhere, as you’ll be hard pressed to find something other than the settings that fully covers the map. + +This version of Google Maps seemed to live in its own little design world. The white search bar “floated" above the map, with maps showing on the sides and top of the bar. That didn't really make it seem like the traditional Action Bar design. The navigation drawer, in the top left on every other app, was in the bottom left. There was no up button, app icon, or overflow button on the main screen. + +![The new Google Maps cut a lot of fat and displayed more information on a single screen.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/newmaps21.png) +The new Google Maps cut a lot of fat and displayed more information on a single screen. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The left picture shows what popped up when you tapped on the search bar (along with the keyboard, which had been closed). In the past, Google would show an empty page below a blank search bar, but in Maps, Google used that space to link to the new “Local" page. The “blank" search results displayed links to common, browsable results like restaurant listings, gas stations, and attractions. At the bottom of the results page was a list of nearby results from your search history and an option to manually cache parts of the map. + +The right set of images shows location page. The map shown in the top of the Maps 7 screenshot isn’t a thumbnail; that’s the full map view. In the new version of Google Maps, a location was displayed as a card that “floats" overtop of the main map, and the map was repositioned to center on the location. Scrolling up would move the card up and cover the map, and scrolling down would show the whole map with the result reduced to a small strip at the bottom. If the location was part of a list of search results, swiping left and right would move through the results. + +The location pages were redesigned to be much more useful at a glance. On the first page, the new version added critical information, like the location on a map, the review score, and the number of reviews. Since this is a phone, and the software will be dialing for you, the phone number was deemed pointless and was removed. The old version showed the distance to the location in miles, while the new version of Google Maps showed the distance in terms of time, based on traffic and preferred mode of transportation—a much more useful metric. The new version also put a share button front and center, which made coordination over IM or text messaging a lot easier. + +### Android 4.3, Jelly Bean—getting wearable support out early ### + +Android 4.3 would have been an incredible update if Google had done the traditional thing and not released updates between 4.3 and 4.2 through the Play Store. If the new Play Store, Gmail, Maps, Books, Music, Hangouts, Keep, and Play Games were bundled into a big brick as a new version of Android, it would have been hailed as the biggest release ever. Google didn't need to do hold back features anymore though. With very little left that required an OS update, at the end of July 2013, Google released the seemingly insignificant update called "Android 4.3." + +![Android Wear plugging into Android 4.3's Notification access screen.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/2014-03-28-12.231.jpg) +Android Wear plugging into Android 4.3's Notification access screen. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +Google made no qualms about the low importance of 4.3, calling the newest release "Jelly Bean" (the third one in a row). Android 4.3's feature list read like a laundry list of things Google couldn't update from the Play Store or through Google Play Services, mostly consisting of low-level framework changes for developers. + +Many of the additions seemed to fit a singular purpose, though—Android 4.3 was Google's trojan horse for wearable computing support. 4.3 added support for Bluetooth Low Energy, a way to wirelessly connect Android to another device and pass data back and forth while using a very small amount of power—an integral feature to a wearable device. Android 4.3 also added a "Notification Access" API, which allowed apps to completely replicate and control the notification panel. Apps could display notification text and pictures and interact with the notification the same way users do—namely pressing action buttons and dismissing notifications. Doing this from an on-board app when you have the notification panel is useless, but on a device that is separate from your phone, replicating the information in the notification panel becomes much more useful. One of the few apps that plugged into this was "Android Wear Preview," which used the notification API to power most of the interface for Android Wear. + +The "4.3 is for wearables" theory explained the relatively low number of features in 4.3: it was pushed out the door to give OEMs time to update devices in time for the launch of [Android Wear][2]. The plan seems to have worked. Android Wear requires Android 4.3 and up, which has been out for so long now that most major flagships have updated. + +Android 4.3 was not all that exciting, but Android releases from here on out didn't need to be all that exciting. Everything became so modularized that Google could push updates out as soon as they were done through Google Play, rather than drop everything in one huge brick as an OS update. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

The company [teamed up with Nestlé][1] to name the OS "KitKat," and it launched on Halloween, October 31, 2013. Nestlé produced limited-edition Android-shaped KitKat bars, and KitKat packaging in stores promoted the new OS while offering a chance to win a Nexus 7. + +KitKat launched with a new Nexus device, the Nexus 5. The new flagship had the biggest display yet: a five-inch, 1920x1080 LCD. Despite the bigger screen size, LG—again the manufacturer for the device—was able to fit the Nexus 5 into the same dimensions as a Galaxy Nexus or Nexus 4. + +The Nexus 5 was specced comparatively to the highest-end phones at the time, with a 2.3Ghz Snapdragon 800 processor and 2GB of RAM. The phone was again sold unlocked on the Play Store, but while most phones with specs like this would go for $600-$700, Google sold the Nexus 5 for only $350. + +One of the most important improvements in KitKat was one you couldn't see: significantly lower memory usage. For KitKat, Google started a concerted effort to lower memory usage across the OS and bundled apps called "Project Svelte." After tons of optimization work and a "low memory" mode that disabled expensive graphical effects, Android could now run on as little as 340MB of RAM. Lower memory requirements were a big deal, because devices in the developing world—the biggest growth markets for smartphones—often ran on only 512MB of RAM. Ice Cream Sandwich's more advanced UI significantly raised the system requirements of Android devices, which left many low-end devices—even newly released low-end devices—stuck on Gingerbread. The lower system requirements of KitKat meant to bring these cheap devices back into the fold. With KitKat, Google hoped to finally kill Gingerbread (which, at the time of writing, is around 20 percent of the market). Just in case the lower system requirements weren't enough, there have even been reports that Google will [no longer license][2] the Google apps to Gingerbread devices. + +Besides bringing low-end phones to a modern version of the OS, Project Svelte's lower memory requirements were to be a boon to wearable computers, too. Google Glass [announced][3] it was also switching to the slimmer OS, and [Android Wear][4] ran on KitKat, too. The lower memory requirements in Android 4.4 and the notification API and Bluetooth LE support in 4.3 came together nicely to support wearable computing. + +KitKat also featured a lot of polish to the core OS interfaces that couldn't be updated via the Play Store. The System UI, Dialer, Clock, and Settings all saw updates. + +![KitKat's transparent bars on the Google Now Launcher.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/1homescreenz.png) +KitKat's transparent bars on the Google Now Launcher. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +KitKat not only got rid of the unpopular lines to the left and right sides of the lock screen—it completely disabled lock screen widgets by default! Google obviously felt multiple lock screens and multiple home screens were a little to complicated for new users, so lock screen widgets now needed to be enabled in the settings. The lopsided time here and in the clock app was switched to a symmetrical weight, which looked a lot nicer. + +In KitKat, apps had the ability to make the system and status bars transparent, which significantly changed the look of the OS. The bars now blended into the wallpaper and any other app that chose to enable transparent bars. The bars could also be completely hidden by any app via a new feature called “immersive" mode. + +KitKat was the final nail in the “Tron" coffin, removing almost all traces of blue from the operating system. The status bar icons were changed from a blue to a neutral white. The status and system bars on the home screen weren’t completely transparent; a dark gradient was added to the top and bottom of the screen so that the white icons would still be visible on a light background. + +![Tweaks to Google Now and the folders.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/nowfolders.png) +Tweaks to Google Now and the folders. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The home screen that shipped with KitKat on the Nexus 5 was actually exclusive to the Nexus 5 for a few months, but it could now be on any Nexus device. The new home screen was called the "Google Now Launcher," and it was actually [the Google Search app][5]. Yes, Google Search grew from a simple search box to an entire home screen, and in KitKat, it drew the wallpaper, icons, app drawer, widgets, home screen settings, Google Now, and, of course, the search box. Thanks to Search now running the entire home screen, any time the home screen was open and the screen was on, voice commands could be activated by saying “OK Google." This was pointed out to the user with introductory “Say 'OK Google' text in the search bar, which would fade away after a few uses. + +Google Now was more integrated, too. Besides the usual swipe up from the system bar, Google Now was also the leftmost home screen. The new version brought some design tweaks as well. The Google logo was moved into the search bar, and the whole top area was compacted. A few card designs were cleaned up, and a new set of buttons at the bottom led to reminders, customization options, and an overflow button with settings, feedback, and help. Since Google Now was part of the home screen, it got transparent system and status bars, too. + +Transparency and “brightening up" certain parts of the OS were design themes in KitKat. Black was removed in the status and system bars by switching to transparent, and the black background of the folders was switched to white. + +![A screenshot showing the new, cleaner app screen layout, and a composite image of the app lineup.](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/apps.png) +A screenshot showing the new, cleaner app screen layout, and a composite image of the app lineup. +Photo by Ron Amadeo + +The KitKat icon lineup changed significantly from 4.3. To be more dramatic, it was a bloodbath, with Google removing seven icons over the 4.3 loadout. Google Hangouts could handle SMS now, so the Messaging app was removed. Hangouts also took over Google+ Messenger duties, so that app shortcut was cut. Google Currents was removed as a default app, as it would soon be killed—along with Google Play Magazines—in favor of Google Play Newsstand. Google Maps was beaten back into a single icon, which meant Local and Navigation shortcuts were removed. The impossible-to-understand Movie Studio was cut, too—Google must have realized no one wants to edit movies on a phone. Thanks to the home screen “OK Google" hotword detection, the Voice Search icon was rendered redundant and removed. Depressingly, the long abandoned News & Weather app remained. + +There was a new app called “Photos"—really the Google+ app—which took over picture management duties. On the Nexus 5, the Gallery and Google+ Photos were pretty similar, but in newer builds of KitKat present on Google Play Edition devices, the Gallery was completely replaced by Google+ photos. Play Games was an interface for Google’s back-end multiplayer service—a Googly version of Xbox Live or Apple’s Game Center. Google Drive, which existed for years as a Play Store app, was finally made a default app. Google bought Quickoffice back in June 2012, now finally deeming the app acceptable for inclusion by default. While Drive opened Google Documents, Quickoffice opened Microsoft Office Documents. If keeping track, that was two document editing apps and two photo editing apps included on most KitKat loadouts. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

After a long press, 4.4 presented a slightly zoomed out view—you could see the current home screen and the screens to the left and right of it. Tapping on the “widgets" button would open a full screen list of widget thumbnails, but after long-pressing on a widget, you were thrown back into the zoomed-out view and could scroll through home screen pages and place the icon where you wanted.

If you wanted to call someone in your contacts, just type their name in; if you wanted to call a business, just type the business name in and the dialer would search through Google Maps’ extensive database of phone numbers.

At the bottom of the settings was a "Printing" screen, and any printer OEM could make a plugin for it. Google Cloud Print was, of course, one of the first supporters. Once your printer was hooked up to Cloud Print, either natively or through a computer with Chrome installed, you could print to it over the Internet. Apps needed to support the printing framework, too. Pressing the little "i" button on Google Drive would show information about the document and give you the option to print it.

Unlike the old time picker, which required you to pick a time period, this just defaulted to AM (again making it possible to accidentally be off by 12 hours). + +### Today—Android everywhere ### + +![](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/android-everywhere2.png) +Photo by Google/Sony/Motorola/Ron Amadeo + +What started out as a curious BlackBerry clone from a search engine company became the most popular OS in the world from one of the biggest titans in the tech industry. Android has become Google's de-facto consumer operating system, and it powers phones, tablets, Google Glass, Google TV, and more. [Parts of it][1] are even used in the Chromecast. In the future, Google will be bringing Android to watches and wearables with [Android Wear][2], and the [Open Automotive Alliance][3] will be bringing Android to cars. Google will be making a renewed commitment to the living room soon, too, with [Android TV][4]. The OS is such a core pillar of Google, that events that are supposed to cover company-wide products, like Google I/O, end up becoming Android launch parties. + +![Top row: the Google Play content stores.

The design of things like Google Now have affected everything the company produces, with even the desktop sites like Search, Google+, YouTube, and Maps getting in on the card design unity. The design keeps evolving as well. Google's next plan is to [unify design][6] across not just Android, but all of its products. The goal is to take something like Gmail and make it feel the same, whether you're using it on Android, a desktop browser, or a watch. + +Google outsourced so many pieces of Android to the Play Store, that version releases are becoming less and less necessary. Google decided the best way to beat carrier and OEM update issues was to sidestep those roadblocks completely. From here on out, there isn't much left to include in an Android update other than core under-the-hood changes—but even many APIs have been pushed to Google Play Services. If you just look at version releases, it seems like Android development has slowed down from the peak 2.5-month release cycle. But the reality is Google can now continually push out improvements to the Play Store in a never-ending, somewhat subtler stream of updates. + +With 1.5 million activations per day, Android has no where to go but up. In the future, Android will be headed from phones and tablets to cars and watches, and the lower system requirements of KitKat will drive phones to even lower prices in the developing world. The bottom line? More and more people will get online. And for many of those people, Android will be not just their phone but their primary computing device. With Android leading the charge for Google in so many areas, the OS that started off as a tiny acquisition has become one of Google's most important products. + +---------- + +![Ron Amadeo](http://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content//uploads/authors/ron-amadeo-sq.jpg) + +[Ron Amadeo][a] / Ron is the Reviews Editor at Ars Technica, where he specializes in Android OS and Google products.

Legacy GRUB had many virtues, but it became old and its developers did yearn for more functionality, and thus did GRUB 2 come into the world. - -GRUB 2 is a major rewrite with several significant differences. It boots removable media, and can be configured with an option to enter your system BIOS. It's more complicated to configure with all kinds of scripts to wade through, and instead of having a nice fairly simple `/boot/grub/menu.lst` file with all configurations in one place, the default is `/boot/grub/grub.cfg`. Which you don't edit directly, oh no, for this is not for mere humans to touch, but only other scripts. We lowly humans may edit `/etc/default/grub`, which controls mainly the appearance of the GRUB menu. We may also edit the scripts in `/etc/grub.d/`. These are the scripts that boot your operating systems, control external applications such as memtest and os_prober, and theming`./boot/grub/grub.cfg` is built from `/etc/default/grub` and `/etc/grub.d/*` when you run the update-grub command, which you must run every time you make changes. - -The good news is that the update-grub script is reliable for finding kernels, boot files, and adding all operating systems to your GRUB boot menu, so you don't have to do it manually. - -We're going to learn how to fix two of the more common failures. When you boot up your system and it stops at the grub> prompt, that is the full GRUB 2 command shell. That means GRUB 2 started normally and loaded the normal.mod module (and other modules which are located in /boot/grub/[arch]/), but it didn't find your grub.cfg file. If you see grub rescue> that means it couldn't find normal.mod, so it probably couldn't find any of your boot files. - -How does this happen? The kernel might have changed drive assignments or you moved your hard drives, you changed some partitions, or installed a new operating system and moved things around. In these scenarios your boot files are still there, but GRUB can't find them. So you can look for your boot files at the GRUB prompt, set their locations, and then boot your system and fix your GRUB configuration. - -### GRUB 2 Command Shell ### - -The GRUB 2 command shell is just as powerful as the shell in legacy GRUB. You can use it to discover boot images, kernels, and root filesystems. In fact, it gives you complete access to all filesystems on the local machine regardless of permissions or other protections. Which some might consider a security hole, but you know the old Unix dictum: whoever has physical access to the machine owns it. - -When you're at the `grub>` prompt, you have a lot of functionality similar to any command shell such as history and tab-completion. The `grub rescue>` mode is more limited, with no history and no tab-completion. - -If you are practicing on a functioning system, press C when your GRUB boot menu appears to open the GRUB command shell. You can stop the bootup countdown by scrolling up and down your menu entries with the arrow keys. It is safe to experiment at the GRUB command line because nothing you do there is permanent. If you are already staring at the `grub>` or `grub rescue>`prompt then you're ready to rock. - -The next few commands work with both `grub>` and `grub rescue>`. The first command you should run invokes the pager, for paging long command outputs: - - grub> set pager=1 - -There must be no spaces on either side of the equals sign. Now let's do a little exploring. Type ls to list all partitions that GRUB sees: - - grub> ls - (hd0) (hd0,msdos2) (hd0,msdos1) - -What's all this msdos stuff? That means this system has the old-style MS-DOS partition table, rather than the shiny new Globally Unique Identifiers partition table (GPT). (See [Using the New GUID Partition Table in Linux (Goodbye Ancient MBR)][1]. If you're running GPT it will say (hd0,gpt1). Now let's snoop. Use the ls command to see what files are on your system: - - grub> ls (hd0,1)/ - lost+found/ bin/ boot/ cdrom/ dev/ etc/ home/ lib/ - lib64/ media/ mnt/ opt/ proc/ root/ run/ sbin/ - srv/ sys/ tmp/ usr/ var/ vmlinuz vmlinuz.old - initrd.img initrd.img.old - -Hurrah, we have found the root filesystem. You can omit the msdos and gpt labels. If you leave off the slash it will print information about the partition. You can read any file on the system with the cat command: - - grub> cat (hd0,1)/etc/issue - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS \n \l - -Reading /etc/issue could be useful on a multi-boot system for identifying your various Linuxes. - -### Booting From grub> ### - -This is how to set the boot files and boot the system from the grub> prompt. We know from running the ls command that there is a Linux root filesystem on (hd0,1), and you can keep searching until you verify where /boot/grub is. Then run these commands, using your own root partition, kernel, and initrd image: - - grub> set root=(hd0,1) - grub> linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-29-generic root=/dev/sda1 - grub> initrd /boot/initrd.img-3.13.0-29-generic - grub> boot - -The first line sets the partition that the root filesystem is on. The second line tells GRUB the location of the kernel you want to use. Start typing /boot/vmli, and then use tab-completion to fill in the rest. Type root=/dev/sdX to set the location of the root filesystem. Yes, this seems redundant, but if you leave this out you'll get a kernel panic. How do you know the correct partition? hd0,1 = /dev/sda1. hd1,1 = /dev/sdb1. hd3,2 = /dev/sdd2. I think you can extrapolate the rest. - -The third line sets the initrd file, which must be the same version number as the kernel. - -The fourth line boots your system. - -On some Linux systems the current kernels and initrds are symlinked into the top level of the root filesystem: - - $ ls -l / - vmlinuz -> boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-29-generic - initrd.img -> boot/initrd.img-3.13.0-29-generic - -So you could boot from grub> like this: - - grub> set root=(hd0,1) - grub> linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda1 - grub> initrd /initrd.img - grub> boot - -### Booting From grub-rescue> ### - -If you're in the GRUB rescue shell the commands are different, and you have to load the normal.mod andlinux.mod modules: - - grub rescue> set prefix=(hd0,1)/boot/grub - grub rescue> set root=(hd0,1) - grub rescue> insmod normal - grub rescue> normal - grub rescue> insmod linux - grub rescue> linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-29-generic root=/dev/sda1 - grub rescue> initrd /boot/initrd.img-3.13.0-29-generic - grub rescue> boot - -Tab-completion should start working after you load both modules. - -### Making Permanent Repairs ### - -When you have successfully booted your system, run these commands to fix GRUB permanently: - - # update-grub - Generating grub configuration file ... - Found background: /usr/share/images/grub/Apollo_17_The_Last_Moon_Shot_Edit1.tga - Found background image: /usr/share/images/grub/Apollo_17_The_Last_Moon_Shot_Edit1.tga - Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-29-generic - Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-3.13.0-29-generic - Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-27-generic - Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-3.13.0-27-generic - Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-24-generic - Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-3.13.0-24-generic - Found memtest86+ image: /boot/memtest86+.elf - Found memtest86+ image: /boot/memtest86+.bin - done - # grub-install /dev/sda - Installing for i386-pc platform. - Installation finished.

In an earlier article, I [advised against using Neobundle][5] because of its rapid development and minimal English documentation. Now, more than a year later, both problems are more manageable. - -Why use an extension manager? Vim supports a healthy number of plugins, but its unmodified structure makes administering them difficult because extension files can be spread over several directories. Vim extension managers simplify things. Pathogen, Vundle, and NeoBundle create the directory ~/.vim/bundle, with a separate subdirectory for all the files of each extension. This structure allows users to easily and thoroughly delete extensions, either manually or via a file manager, and helps minimize potential conflicts when you have a couple of dozen extensions. - -NeoBundle openly models itself on Vundle. Like Vundle, it both installs and updates extensions. However, the help file openly admits that "Neobundle is not a stable plugin manager. If you want [a] stable plugin manager, you should use Vundle." New releases, the help warns, "may break compatibility" – a comment that is less than reassuring, coming from the developers. - -So why should you use NeoBundle? One reason is that Vundle works only with [Git][6], while NeoBundle also supports [Subversion][7] and [Mercurial][8] repositories. Another reason is that, if you want to keep extension updates from breaking your Vim ecosystem, you can lock NeoBundle so that it uses only a specific version of any particular extension. - -In addition, NeoBundle's creator, Shougo Matsuishita, is adding its command structures to several other extensions in order to reduce the list of commands they use. Currently, NeoBundle supports three such extensions: [unite.vim][9], a file and buffer manager that works within Vim; [vimshell.vim][10], a scripting shell for Vim; and [vimproc.vim][11], which works within vimshell.vim to allow asynchronous events. That's an idiosyncratic collection, and all three are poorly documented in English, so average users may wish to forgo them. Before tackling any of them, most users should focus on the basics of NeoBundle. - -### Installing and initializing NeoBundle ### - -NeoBundle requires Vim 7.2.051 or higher and requires git be installed, and depends on [cURL][12] for downloading files. You can install NeoBundle manually, but the fast way to install it is to clone its repository on GitHub using cURL. From your home directory, enter the following command to copy the files for NeoBundle into .vim/bundle/neobundle.vim, where the extension can manage itself: - - curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Shougo/neobundle.vim/master/bin/install.sh | sh - -You also need to modify your .vimrc file. NeoBundle's GitHub page offers a sample .vimrc file, but copying it means installing five plugins you may not want. This is the minimal content that you need: - - if has('vim_starting') - set nocompatible - set runtimepath+=~/.vim/bundle/neobundle.vim/ - call neobundle#begin(expand('~/.vim/bundle/')) - NeoBundleFetch 'Shougo/neobundle.vim' - call neobundle#end() - filetype plugin indent on - -These lines set up and start NeoBundle, and set NeoBundle to update itself just like any other plugin. NeoBundle defaults to updating itself from GitHub repositories, so if you use GitHub, all you have to do is specify the maintainer's username and the directory for the plugin; in the lines above, NeoBundleFetch needs to specify only "Shougo/neobundle.vim" instead of the complete path on GitHub. If you want to use another site instead, including one that supports Subversion or Mecurial, you need to add the complete URL to the repository. - -If you want to install other NeoBundle plugins, use this generic form: - - curl -k https://github.com/[MAINTAINER]/ [PLUGIN PATH] > ~/.vim/bundle/[PLUGIN PATH] - -or, to give a more specific example, you can install the [vim-abolish plugin][13], a super-charged search and replace extension, with the command - - curl -k https://github.com/tpope/vim-abolish > ~/.vim/bundle/abolish - -To have the extension updated automatically, add a line below the NeoBundleFetch line that gives the path to its repository. For example: - - NeoBundle 'tpope/vim-abolish' - -Optionally, you can specify a particular branch or revision of NeoBundle to use, preventing any updates. This option can be useful if you are using extensions that are in rapid development and you want to avoid having them break when you update any other extensions. For instance: - - NeoBundle 'Shougo/vimshell', { 'rev' : '3787e5' } - -Another option is to place the directive NeoBundleCheck on a line at the end of the NeoBundle stanza in .vimrc. When this line is present, NeoBundle checks for uninstalled bundles and prompts you to install them. You can also run the utility `:NeoBundleInstall` from within NeoBundle to initialize or update installed extensions. - -### NeoBundle utilities ### - -Many of NeoBundle's utilities function similarly to Vundle's, but they are differently named. You use the utilities to administer plugins from within NeoBundle: - -- Run `:NeoBundleUpdate` when you install or update extensions, and when you manually remove an extension's files. It can be followed by a specific plugin, such as "/Shougo/neobundle.vim," or without a plugin name to configure all plugins that are installed but not configured. The command NeoBundleInstall! provides the same functionality. -- `:NeoBundle {REPOSITORY URI} [[REVISION}] [,OPTIONS}]]` configures an extension while locking it into a specified version, preventing any updates. -- `:NeoBundleList` lists unintialized extensions. -- `:NeoBundleClean` runs an interactive utility for removing unused extensions. - -These utilities are also available in slightly different forms when you run NeoBundle with unite.vim. You can learn more about the utilities in all their forms by running the command `:help neobundle`. - - Deciding whether to use NeoBundle - -NeoBundle is a powerful tool, but its seemingly permanent state of rapid development can be a blessing or a curse, depending on your preferences. If you want the latest features and extensions, NeoBundle can make Vundle and Pathogen look decidedly old-fashioned. - -However, with the online help itself warning of instability, ignoring the possibility of the latest version of one extension interfering with the proper functioning of another would be rash. At the very least, you should specify in your .vimrc a version of NeoBundle that you know to be stable. You might also do the same for any extension that you use regularly. With this precaution, you can enjoy following the development of NeoBundle and its related extensions while avoiding the consequence of working on the bleeding edge. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -via: http://www.openlogic.com/wazi/bid/348084/Managing-Vim-extensions-with-NeoBundle - -译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) - -本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 - -[1]:https://github.com/Shougo/neobundle.vim -[2]:http://olex.openlogic.com/packages/vim -[3]:https://github.com/gmarik/Vundle.vim -[4]:https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen -[5]:http://www.openlogic.com/wazi/bid/262302/Three-tools-for-managing-Vim-plugins -[6]:http://olex.openlogic.com/packages/git -[7]:http://olex.openlogic.com/packages/subversion -[8]:http://olex.openlogic.com/packages/mercurial -[9]:https://github.com/Shougo/unite.vim -[10]:https://github.com/Shougo/vimshell.vim/blob/master/doc/vimshell.txt -[11]:https://github.com/Shougo/vimproc.vim/blob/master/doc/vimproc.txt -[12]:http://olex.openlogic.com/packages/curl -[13]:https://github.com/tpope/vim-abolish \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/sources/tech/20140617 Make Ubuntu 14.04 Look Like Mac With Zukimac Theme.md b/sources/tech/20140617 Make Ubuntu 14.04 Look Like Mac With Zukimac Theme.md deleted file mode 100644 index ae92f1ac56..0000000000 --- a/sources/tech/20140617 Make Ubuntu 14.04 Look Like Mac With Zukimac Theme.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,52 +0,0 @@ -（翻译中 by runningwater） -Make Ubuntu 14.04 Look Like Mac With Zukimac Theme -================================================================================ -![](http://itsfoss.itsfoss.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Make_Ubuntu_Look_Like_Mac_OS.jpeg) - -Ubuntu Unity itself is a beautiful desktop but people over the world are smitten by the looks of Mac OS X.

So at the time of this post, Wheezy 7.x is the Stable release and Jessie is the Testing source which is going to be the next stable release. - -At times, when you need to get a more recent version of a particular application, then the testing/unstable repository is a good option. I had the task of installing Apache 2.4.x onto a Debian wheezy system. But the repo had only 2.2.x and the testing repo had the required 2.4.x version. So the solution is to grab it from the testing repo. - -Most of the time, when looking for newer versions of software applications, we would fiddle with the "Testing" repository only. - -This post is going to show you how to setup the Testing and Unstable sources on a Debian system and how to install software from them, without breaking your existing system. - -> Stable < Testing < Unstable -> Wheezy < Jessie < Sid - -### 1.

Do some apt pinning - Important ! ### - -> After adding the testing and unstable repos, if you update the system then all available updates for all installed applications would be installed right away, leading the system to an unpredictable state. - -Therefore some rules have to be setup in order to restrict the package selection during regular updates/upgrades. - -This is done through "apt pinning" where we tell the apt system to use only the stable system as always, but we may select to install a particular package from the testing or unstable repository if we wish to. - -The apt pinning preferences can be configured into either of the following 2 files. - - /etc/apt/preferences - OR - /etc/apt/preferences.d/my_preferences - -Open either of the 2 locations (create one if it does not exist) and fill the following into the file - - Package: * - Pin: release a=stable - Pin-Priority: 700 - - Package: * - Pin: release a=testing - Pin-Priority: 650 - - Package: * - Pin: release a=unstable - Pin-Priority: 600 - -Mentioned earlier, stable will point to your current debian version, testing to the next, and unstable would be further away in future.

Install apps from testing/unstable source ### - -Now its time to pick a particular package out from the testing or unstable repo and install it. So lets say we want to install apache2 from testing source. - -There are 2 ways to do it and each has a different effect. - -#### Method 1 #### - - # apt-get install apache2/testing - -The above command will install the apache2 package from the testing source and install dependencies from stable source (or whatever the apt policy holds). This command fail in situations where the dependencies are outdated compared to what the installation package (apache2) needs. - -#### Method 2 #### - - # apt-get -t testing install apache2 - -The above command will install apache2 from testing source and install all dependencies from testing source as well. This should work better than the above command. - -So to install newer version of any package, simply head towards the testing/unstable sources and enjoy. Note that the priority numbers are not just plain numbers, but have special meanings. Check the man page on apt preferences to learn more about them - - $ man 5 apt_preferences - -### Summary ### - -Using the testing/unstable repository with pinning is an easy way to get newer versions of packages, but it is not recommended. If done wrong, it can mess up the system by pulling packages from different branches that may not be compatible. - -A more recommended method to install updated packages is using the backports repository. It provides newer versions of selected packages from testing/unstable repo, but compiled for the current stable version. So on debian wheezy you can use wheezy-backports repository.

The commands that we discussed were about enough to help a developer survive in the Git world. In this post, we will try to explore how to manage your time effectively and make full use of the features that Git provides. - -> Note: Some commands in this article include part of the command in square brackets (e.g. `git add -p [file_name]`). In those examples, you would insert the necessary number, identifier, etc. without the square brackets. - -### 1. Git Auto Completion ### - -If you run Git commands through the command line, it’s a tiresome task to type in the commands manually every single time. To help with this, you can enable auto completion of Git commands within a few minutes. - -To get the script, run the following in a Unix system: - - cd ~ - curl https://raw.github.com/git/git/master/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash -o ~/.git-completion.bash - -Next, add the following lines to your ~/.bash_profile file: - - if [ -f ~/.git-completion.bash ]; then - . ~/.git-completion.bash - fi - -Although I have mentioned this earlier, I can not stress it enough: If you want to use the features of Git fully, you should definitely shift to the command line interface! - -### 2. Ignoring Files in Git ### - -Are you tired of compiled files (like `.pyc`) appearing in your Git repository? Or are you so fed up that you have added them to Git? Look no further, there is a way through which you can tell Git to ignore certain files and directories altogether. Simply create a file with the name `.gitignore` and list the files and directories that you don’t want Git to track. You can make exceptions using the exclamation mark(!). - - *.pyc - *.exe - my_db_config/ - - !main.pyc - -### 3. Who Messed With My Code? ### - -It’s the natural instinct of human beings to blame others when something goes wrong. If your production server is broke, it’s very easy to find out the culprit — just do a `git blame`. This command shows you the author of every line in a file, the commit that saw the last change in that line, and the timestamp of the commit. - - git blame [file_name] - -![git blame demonstration](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946443git-ninja-01.png) - -And in the screenshot below, you can see how this command would look on a bigger repository: - -![git blame on the ATutor repository](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946441git-ninja-02.png) - -### 4. Review History of the Repository ### - -We had a look at the use of `git log` in a previous tutorial, however, there are three options that you should know about. - - -- **--oneline** – Compresses the information shown beside each commit to a reduced commit hash and the commit message, all shown in a single line. -- **--graph** – This option draws a text-based graphical representation of the history on the left hand side of the output. It’s of no use if you are viewing the history for a single branch. -- **--all** – Shows the history of all branches. - -Here’s what a combination of the options looks like: - -![Use of git log with all, graph and oneline](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946444git-ninja-03.png) - -### 5. Never Lose Track of a Commit ### - -Let’s say you committed something you didn’t want to and ended up doing a hard reset to come back to your previous state. Later, you realize you lost some other information in the process and want to get it back, or at least view it. This is where `git reflog` can help. - -A simple `git log` shows you the latest commit, its parent, its parent’s parent, and so on. However, `git reflog` is a list of commits that the head was pointed to. Remember that it’s local to your system; it’s not a part of your repository and not included in pushes or merges. - -If I run `git log`, I get the commits that are a part of my repository: - -![Project history](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946446git-ninja-04.png) - -However, a `git reflog` shows a commit (`b1b0ee9` – `HEAD@{4}`) that was lost when I did a hard reset: - -![Git reflog](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946447git-ninja-05.png) - -### 6. Staging Parts of a Changed File for a Commit ### - -It is generally a good practice to make feature-based commits, that is, each commit must represent a feature or a bug fix. Consider what would happen if you fixed two bugs, or added multiple features without committing the changes. In such a situation situation, you could put the changes in a single commit. But there is a better way: Stage the files individually and commit them separately. - -Let’s say you’ve made multiple changes to a single file and want them to appear in separate commits. In that case, we add files by prefixing `-p` to our add commands. - - git add -p [file_name] - -Let’s try to demonstrate the same. I have added three new lines to `file_name` and I want only the first and third lines to appear in my commit. Let’s see what a `git diff` shows us. - -![Changes in repo](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946449git-ninja-06.png) - -And let’s see what happes when we prefix a `-p` to our `add` command. - -![Running add with -p](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946450git-ninja-07.png) - -It seems that Git assumed that all the changes were a part of the same idea, thereby grouping it into a single hunk. You have the following options: - -- Enter y to stage that hunk -- Enter n to not stage that hunk -- Enter e to manually edit the hunk -- Enter d to exit or go to the next file. -- Enter s to split the hunk. - -In our case, we definitely want to split it into smaller parts to selectively add some and ignore the rest. - -![Adding all hunks](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946452git-ninja-08.png) - -As you can see, we have added the first and third lines and ignored the second. You can then view the status of the repository and make a commit. - -![Repository after selectively adding a file](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946454git-ninja-09.png) - -### 7. Squash Multiple Commits ### - -When you submit your code for review and create a pull request (which happens often in open source projects), you might be asked to make a change to your code before it’s accepted. You make the change, only to be asked to change it yet again in the next review. Before you know it, you have a few extra commits. Ideally, you could squash them into one using the rebase command. - - git rebase -i HEAD~[number_of_commits] - -If you want to squash the last two commits, the command that you run is the following. - - git rebase -i HEAD~2 - -On running this command, you are taken to an interactive interface listing the commits and asking you which ones to squash. Ideally, you `pick` the latest commit and `squash` the old ones. - -![Git squash interactive](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946455git-ninja-10.png) - -You are then asked to provide a commit message to the new commit. This process essentially re-writes your commit history. - -![Adding a commit message](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946457git-ninja-11.png) - -### 8. Stash Uncommitted Changes ### - -Let’s say you are working on a certain bug or a feature, and you are suddenly asked to demonstrate your work. Your current work is not complete enough to be committed, and you can’t give a demonstration at this stage (without reverting the changes). In such a situation, `git stash` comes to the rescue. Stash essentially takes all your changes and stores them for further use. To stash your changes, you simply run the following- - - git stash - -To check the list of stashes, you can run the following: - - git stash list - -![Stash list](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946458git-ninja-12.png) - -If you want to un-stash and recover the uncommitted changes, you apply the stash: - - git stash apply - -In the last screenshot, you can see that each stash has an indentifier, a unique number (although we have only one stash in this case). In case you want to apply only selective stashes, you add the specific identifier to the apply command: - - git stash apply stash@{2} - -![After un-stashing changes](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946461git-ninja-13.png) - -### 9. Check for Lost Commits ### - -Although `reflog` is one way of checking for lost commits, it’s not feasible in large repositories. That is when the `fsck` (file system check) command comes into play. - - git fsck --lost-found - -![Git fsck results](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946463git-ninja-14.png) - -Here you can see a lost commit. You can check the changes in the commit by running git show [commit_hash] or recover it by running `git merge [commit_hash]`. - -`git fsck` has an advantage over `reflog`. Let’s say you deleted a remote branch and then cloned the repository. With `fsck` you can search for and recover the deleted remote branch. - -### 10. Cherry Pick ### - -I have saved the most elegant Git command for the last. The `cherry-pick` command is by far my favorite Git command, because of its literal meaning as well as its utility! - -In the simplest of terms, `cherry-pick` is picking a single commit from a different branch and merging it with your current one. If you are working in a parallel fashion on two or more branches, you might notice a bug that is present in all branches. If you solve it in one, you can cherry pick the commit into the other branches, without messing with other files or commits. - -Let’s consider a scenario where we can apply this. I have two branches and I want to cherry-pick the commit `b20fd14: Cleaned junk` into another one. - -![Before cherry pick](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946465git-ninja-15.png) - -I switch to the branch into which I want to cherry-pick the commit, and run the following: - - git cherry-pick [commit_hash] - -![After cherry pick](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946467git-ninja-16.png) - -Although we had a clean `cherry-pick` this time, you should know that this command can often lead to conflicts, so use it with care. - -### Conclusion ### - -With this, we come to the end of our list of tips that I think can help you take your Git skills to a new level. Git is the best out there and it can accomplish anything you can imagine. Therefore, always try to challenge yourself with Git. Chances are, you will end up learning something new! - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -via: http://www.sitepoint.com/10-tips-git-next-level/ - -译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) - -本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 - -[1]:http://www.sitepoint.com/git-for-beginners/ -[2]:http://www.sitepoint.com/getting-started-git-team-environment/ diff --git a/sources/tech/20140624 Super Pi Brothers.md b/sources/tech/20140624 Super Pi Brothers.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..9e0ef9b0fd --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/tech/20140624 Super Pi Brothers.md @@ -0,0 +1,70 @@ +Super Pi Brothers +================================================================================ +I don't game as much as I used to. Although I've certainly spent countless hours of my life in front of a Nintendo, SNES, or after that, playing a first-person shooter on my computer (Linux only, thank you), these days, my free time tends to go toward one of the many nongaming hobbies I've accumulated. Recently though, I found myself dusting off my Wii console just so I could play an NES and SNES game I re-purchased for it. The thing is, those games require using a somewhat strange controller, and I already have a modified SNES controller that can connect over USB. That was enough to encourage me to search for a better solution. Of course, I simply could connect three or four consoles and stack up games in my living room, but I've grown accustomed to ripping my CDs and DVDs and picking what I want to listen to or watch from a central media center. It would be nice if I didn't have to get up and find a cartridge every time I wanted to switch games. This, of course, means going with emulation, but although in the past I'd had success with a modified classic Xbox, I didn't have that hardware anymore. I figured someone must have gotten this set up on the Raspberry Pi, and sure enough, after a brief search and a few commands, I had a perfect retro-gaming arcade set up on a spare Raspberry Pi. + +One nice thing about the Raspberry Pi project is the large number of people out there with identical hardware. For me, that meant instead of having to go through someone else's instructions, knowing I'd likely have to tweak it to suit my setup, I basically could follow someone else's guide verbatim. In my case, I found the RetroPie project, which wrapped up all of the commands you would need to install everything on a Raspberry Pi into a single large script. At the end, you have the RetroArch project fully installed and configured, which includes all of the major emulators you'd want and a centralized method to configure them, plus an EmulationStation graphical front end the Pi can boot directly into that makes it simple to navigate to the game you want, all from a gamepad. + +### Install RetroPie ### + +Before you install RetroPie, you will want to make sure your Raspbian distribution (the default Linux distribution for a Raspberry Pi, and the one this project assumes you will use) is completely up to date, including any new firmware images. This just means a few common `apt` commands. Although you certainly could connect a keyboard to your Raspberry Pi for this step, I've found it more convenient to `ssh` in to the device so I could copy and paste commands: + + $ sudo apt-get update + $ sudo apt-get -y upgrade + +Now that the Raspberry Pi is up to date, make sure the git and dialog packages are installed, and then use git to download RetroPie: + + + $ sudo apt-get -y install git dialog + $ cd + $ git clone --depth=0 + ↪git://github.com/petrockblog/RetroPie-Setup.git + +This will create a RetroPie-Setup directory containing the main setup script. Now you just need to go inside that directory and execute it: + + $ cd RetroPie-Setup + $ chmod +x retropie_setup.sh + $ sudo ./retropie_setup.sh + +This script presents you with an in-terminal menu (Figure 1) where you can choose to perform a binary installation or source installation, set up RetroPie, or perform a series of updates for the RetroPie setup script and binaries. Choose either the binary or source installation. The binary installation won't take as much time, but you may risk running older versions of some of the software. The source installation requires you to compile software, so it takes longer, but at the end, you will have the latest possible versions of everything. Personally, I opted for the binary install, knowing I always could re-run the script and go with the source install if I found any problems. + +![](http://www.linuxjournal.com/files/linuxjournal.com/ufiles/imagecache/medium-350px-centered/u1002061/11576f1.png) + +#### Figure 1. RetroPie Setup Menu #### + +This part of the process will take quite some time on a vanilla Raspbian image, as there are a lot of different packages to download and install. Once the installation completes, go back to the main RetroPie setup screen and select SETUP from the main menu. In this submenu, you can tweak settings, such as whether to start EmulationStation from boot (recommended) and whether to enable a splash screen. In my case, I enabled both settings as I intended my device to be a standalone emulation machine. Note that if you do allow EmulationStation to start up from boot, you still can always ssh in to the machine and run the original RetroPie configuration script to change the settings. + +### Adding ROMs ### + +You also can add ROMs within the RetroPie setup screen. If you choose the Samba method in the menu, you then can locate a local Samba mountpoint on your network, and you can copy ROMs from that. With the USB stick method, RetroPie will generate a directory structure on a USB stick that you plug in to your Raspberry Pi that represents the different emulators it supports. After this point, you can take that USB stick to another computer and copy ROMs over to the appropriate directory, and the next time you plug it in to the Raspberry Pi, it automatically will sync the files over. Finally (and this is what I did), you just can use scp or rsync to copy over ROMs to the appropriate directory under ~/RetroPie/roms/. So for instance, NES games would be copied to ~/RetroPie/roms/nes/. + +Once you are done with the configuration and exit out of the RetroPie setup script, you will want to reboot back into EmulationStation, but before you do, you should reconfigure the memory split on the Raspberry Pi so that it is set to 192 or 128, so run: + + + $ sudo raspi-config + +and go to the Advanced Settings to change the memory split setting. Now you can reboot safely. + +### EmulationStation ### + +Once you reboot, you should be greeted with the initial EmulationStation screen, which will prompt you to set up your joystick, gamepad or keyboard buttons so it can work with the EmulationStation menu. Note that this doesn't affect how your controllers work within games, just within the EmulationStation menu. After your controller or controllers are set up, you should be able to press right and left on your controller to switch between the different emulator menus. In my case, all of the buttons on my gamepad were going to be used within games, so I made a point to bind a key on a separate keyboard to the menu function so I could exit out of games when I was done without having to reboot the Raspberry Pi. + +EmulationStation will show you only menus that represent emulators for which it has detected ROMs, so if you haven't copied ROMs for a particular emulator yet, you will want to do that and potentially restart your Raspberry Pi before you can see them. Also, by default, your controller will not be configured for any games, but if you press the right arrow enough times within EmulationStation, you will get to an input configuration screen that allows you to map keys on your controller to keys inside a game. The nice thing about this setup is that after you configure the keys, it will apply appropriately within each emulator. + +That's it. From this point, you can browse through your collection of games and press whatever button you bound to Accept to start playing. At first I was concerned the Raspberry Pi wouldn't have the horsepower to play my games, but so far, it has been able to play any games I tried without a problem. + +### Resources ### + +The RetroPie Project: [http://blog.petrockblock.com/retropie][1] + +RetroPie Installation Docs: [https://github.com/petrockblog/RetroPie-Setup][2] + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/super-pi-brothers + +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[1]:http://blog.petrockblock.com/retropie +[2]:https://github.com/petrockblog/RetroPie-Setup \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/sources/tech/20140701 Get OpenVPN up and running, enjoy your privacy.md b/sources/tech/20140701 Get OpenVPN up and running, enjoy your privacy.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..54ee1ff9c2 --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/tech/20140701 Get OpenVPN up and running, enjoy your privacy.md @@ -0,0 +1,499 @@ +Get OpenVPN up and running, enjoy your privacy +================================================================================ +![](http://parabing.com/assets/uploads/2014/06/openVPN-featured.jpg) + +> We are fanatic supporters of privacy. Not so much because we have super secrets to hide, but because we consider privacy as a basic human right. So we believe that anytime anyone chooses to exercise that right on the net, then they should have unencumbered access to all the necessary tools and services. OpenVPN is such a service and there are also many tools (clients) which allow us to utilize and enjoy that service. + +By establishing a connection to an [OpenVPN][1] server, we basically create a secure communications channel between our device and the remote host OpenVPN runs on. Although traffic flowing between these two end-points can be intercepted, it is strongly encrypted and thus practically useless to the interceptor. In addition to the OpenVPN acting as the facilitator of this encrypted channel (or tunnel), we may configure the server to also play the role of our Internet gateway. By doing so, we can for example hook up to any open, inherently insecure WiFi network, then immediately connect to the remote OpenVPN server and start using any Internet-enabled application without worrying of prying eyes or bored administrators. (Note though that we still need to trust any administrator in the vicinity of the OpenVPN server. But more on that towards the end of the post.) + +This article is a step-by-step guide on how to setup OpenVPN on [Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS][2]. The OpenVPN host computer may be a VPS in the cloud, a virtual machine running on one of our computers at home, or even that somewhat aged box we tend to forget we have. + +### Step 01 -- System Preparation ### + +We gain access to a command shell in the Ubuntu Server host, for example by remotely connecting to it via SSH, and immediately refresh the local repository database: + + sub0@delta:~$ sudo apt-get update + +To perform any upgrades for all installed packages and the operating system itself, we type: + + sub0@delta:~$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade + +If a new kernel gets pulled in, a system reboot will be required. After refreshing and upgrading, it’s time to install OpenVPN: + + sub0@delta:~$ sudo apt-get -y install openvpn easy-rsa dnsmasq + +Notice that we installed three packages with apt-get: + +- openvpn provides the core of OpenVPN +- easy-rsa contains some handy scripts for key management +- dnsmasq is the name server we’ll be using later on, when our OpenVPN server box/VM will assume the role of a router for all OpenVPN clients` + +### Step 02 -- Master certificate and private key for the Certificate Authority ### + +The most important –and admittedly the most crucial– step during the setup of an OpenVPN server, is the establishment of a corresponding Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). This infrastructure comprises the following: + +- A certificate (public key) and a private key for the OpenVPN server +- A certificate and a private key for any OpenVPN client +- A master certificate and a private key for the Certificate Authority (CA). This private key is used for signing the OpenVPN certificate as well as the client certificates. + +Beginning with the latter, we create a convenient working directory + + sub0@delta:~$ sudo mkdir /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa + +and then copy easy-rsa’s files to it: + + sub0@delta:~$ sudo cp -r /usr/share/easy-rsa/* /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa + +Before we actually create the keys for the CA, we open /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/vars for editing (we like the nano text editor but this is just our preference): + + sub0@delta:~$ sudo nano /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/vars + +Towards the end of the file we assign values to a set of variables which are read during the creation of the master certificate and private key. Take a look at the variables we assigned values to: + + export KEY_COUNTRY="GR" + export KEY_PROVINCE="Central Macedonia" + export KEY_CITY="Thessaloniki" + export KEY_ORG="Parabing Creations" + export KEY_EMAIL="nobody@parabing.com" + export KEY_CN="VPNsRUS" + export KEY_NAME="VPNsRUS" + export KEY_OU="Parabing" + export KEY_ALTNAMES="VPNsRUS" + +It goes without saying that you may assign different values, more appropriate for your case. Also take particular note of the last line, in which we set a value to the KEY_ALTNAMES variable. This line is not part of the original vars file but we nevertheless append it at the end of said file, or the build-ca script we’re going to run next will fail. + +To save the changes in vars we hit [CTRL+O] followed by the [Enter] key. To quit nano we hit [CTRL+X].

[y/n]:y + + 1 out of 1 certificate requests certified, commit? [y/n]y + Write out database with 1 new entries + Data Base Updated + root@delta:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa# + +The base name we chose for the keys was “laptop”, so after the build-key finished we got keys/laptop.crt (certificate) and keys/laptop.key (private key). Those two keys for the particular client along with the CA’s certificate file go together, and it’s a good idea to copy them to a directory where our user (sub0) has full access to. We can, for example, create a new directory in the user’s home directory and copy those three files there: + + root@delta:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa# mkdir /home/sub0/ovpn-client + root@delta:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa# cd keys + root@delta:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys# cp ca.crt laptop.crt laptop.key /home/sub0/ovpn-client + root@delta:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys# chown -R sub0:sub0 /home/sub0/ovpn-client + root@delta:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys# cd .. + root@delta:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa# + +The directory ovpn-client must be securely copied to our laptop. We are allowed to distribute those three files to more than one clients, as long as they are all ours. Of course, should we need a different certificate-private key couple, we run the build-key script again. + +### Step 06 -- OpenVPN server configuration ### + +In a little while our OpenVPN server will be up and running. But first, there are some configuration changes that need to be made. There’s a sample configuration file in /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/sample-config-files which is excellent for our setup. That file is named server.conf.gz: + + root@delta:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa# cd /etc/openvpn + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# cp /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/sample-config-files/server.conf.gz . + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# gunzip -d server.conf.gz + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# mv server.conf delta.conf + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# + +As you can see, we copied server.conf.gz into the /etc/openvpn directory, uncompressed it and renamed it to delta.conf. You may choose any name you like for your OpenVPN server’s configuration file, as long as it has the “.conf” extension. Whatever the base name, we now open the configuration file with nano: + + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# nano delta.conf + +Here are the changes and additions we should make. + +- First, we locate the lines + + cert server.crt + key server.key + +and make sure they reflect the names of our OpenVPN server’s certificate and private key. In our case, those lines were changed into + + cert delta.crt + key delta.key + +- We locate the line + + dh dh1024.pem + +and replace “1024″ with “2048″: + + dh dh2048.pem + +- At the end of the configuration file we add the following two lines: + + push "redirect-gateway def1" + push "dhcp-option DNS 10.8.0.1" + +Those last two lines instruct the clients to use OpenVPN as the default gateway to the Internet, and also use 10.8.0.1 as the server to deal with DNS requests. Notice that 10.8.0.1 is the IP address of the tunnel network interface OpenVPN automatically creates upon startup. If the clients were to use any other server for name resolution, then we would have a situation in which all DNS requests were served from a possibly untrustworthy server. To avoid such DNS leaks, we instruct all OpenVPN clients to use 10.8.0.1 as the DNS server. + +We start our OpenVPN server like this: + + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# service openvpn start + +By default, OpenVPN listens for connections on port 1194/UDP. One way to see that is with the netstat tool: + + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# netstat -anup + Active Internet connections (servers and established) + Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name + udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:54149 0.0.0.0:* 555/dhclient + udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1194 0.0.0.0:* 3024/openvpn + udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:53 0.0.0.0:* 2756/dnsmasq + udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:68 0.0.0.0:* 555/dhclient + udp6 0 0 :::60622 :::* 555/dhclient + udp6 0 0 :::53 :::* 2756/dnsmasq + +All is well, though we have no properly configured DNS server for the clients yet. + +### Step 07 -- A DNS service for OpenVPN clients ### + +That’s why we’ve installed dnsmasq for. We open up its configuration file + + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# nano /etc/dnsmasq.conf + +locate this line + + #listen-address= + +and change it into the following one: + + listen-address=127.0.0.1, 10.8.0.1 + +We also locate this line + + #bind-interfaces + +and delete the hash character on the left: + +bind-interfaces + +To make dnsmasq take these changes into account, we just restart the service: + + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# service dnsmasq restart + * Restarting DNS forwarder and DHCP server dnsmasq [ OK ] + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# + +As it is now, dnsmasq listens for DNS requests from the loopback (lo) and also from the tunnel (tun0) interface. The output of netstat confirms that: + + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# netstat -anup + Active Internet connections (servers and established) + Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name + udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:57219 0.0.0.0:* 638/dhclient + udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1194 0.0.0.0:* 911/openvpn + udp 0 0 127.0.0.1:53 0.0.0.0:* 1385/dnsmasq + udp 0 0 10.8.0.1:53 0.0.0.0:* 1385/dnsmasq + udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:68 0.0.0.0:* 638/dhclient + udp6 0 0 :::39148 :::* 638/dhclient + +### Step 08 -- Router functionality ### + +We want the VM/box our OpenVPN server runs on to behave like a router, and that means that IP forwarding must be enabled. To enable it right now, from the root account we just type + + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward + +To make this setting persistent across reboots we open up /etc/sysctl.conf + + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# nano /etc/sysctl.conf + +locate the line + + #net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 + +and remove the hash character on the left: + + net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 + +There are also some iptables-related rules we should activate: + + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# iptables -A FORWARD -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# iptables -A FORWARD -s 10.8.0.0/24 -j ACCEPT + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# iptables -A FORWARD -j REJECT + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.8.0.0/24 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# + +And of course we want these rules activated every time Ubuntu boots up, so we add them inside /etc/rc.local: + + #!/bin/sh -e + # + # rc.local + # + # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel. + # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other + # value on error. + # + # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution + # bits. + # + # By default this script does nothing. + + iptables -A FORWARD -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT + iptables -A FORWARD -s 10.8.0.0/24 -j ACCEPT + iptables -A FORWARD -j REJECT + iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.8.0.0/24 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE + + service dnsmasq restart + + exit 0 + +Please notice the line before the last one: + +service dnsmasq restart + +> This is crucial: During system startup dnsmasq tries to come up before OpenVPN does. But without OpenVPN there is no tunnel interface (tun0) present so naturally dnsmasq fails. A bit later, when /etc/rc.local is read the tun0 interface is present, so at this point we restart dnsmasq and everything is as it's supposed to be. + +### Step 09 -- Client configuration ### + +In Step 05 we created the directory ovpn-client inside our user’s home directory (/home/sub0, in our example). In there we have the CA certificate plus the client certificate and private key. There’s only one file missing and that’s the configuration file for the client. A sample file we can use is inside /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/sample-config-files: + + root@delta:/etc/openvpn# exit + exit + sub0@delta:~$ cd ~/ovpn-client + sub0@delta:~/ovpn-client$ cp /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/sample-config-files/client.conf . + sub0@delta:~/ovpn-client$ + +We open up client.conf for editing and immediately locate the following line: + + remote my-server-1 1194 + +This “my-server-1″ string is a placeholder and we are now going to replace it for our server’s public domain name or public IP. If we do have a public domain name already assigned to the server, then there’s nothing more to do than put it in place of my-server-1. Things get a tiny bit more involved if there’s no public domain name for our server. What’s the public IP for it? One way to find out is by typing the following: + + sub0@delta:~/ovpn-client$ curl ipecho.net/plain ; echo + +(If instead of a numeric IP address you get an error, just wait a few seconds and try again.) So now we know our server’s public IP, but is it static or dynamic? Well, if we’re dealing with a server at home or even at the office, chances are it has a dynamic IP address. In that case it is advisable to use a free dynamic DNS service, such as the one provided by http://www.noip.com. In the case of NoIP, assuming we have chosen the free domain dnsalias.net then we may end up with a line like this + + remote ovpn.dnsalias.net 1194 + +where “ovpn” is the hostname we’ve given to the server. On the other hand, if our server is hosted in the cloud then it probably has a static public IP address. In that case, the remote directive inside client.conf will look like the following: + + remote 1.2.3.4 1194 + +There are two more lines we need to modify: + + cert client.crt + key client.key + +In our case, the certificate and private key files for the client are named laptop.crt and laptop.key respectively, so our client.conf contains these two lines: + + cert laptop.crt + key laptop.key + +After making sure the changes to client.conf are saved, we need to securely transfer the whole ovpn-client directory to the client. One way to do so is by using the scp command (secure copy or copy over SSH). An alternative is provided by the excellent and free FileZilla, which supports FTP over SSH connections (SFTP). + +### Step 10 -- Connecting and testing ### + +![](http://parabing.com/assets/uploads/2014/06/01-Firewall.png) + + +So how do we actually connect to the remote OpenVPN server? It all depends on the type of the device we have in hand and of course on the operating system is runs. In a bit we are going to examine the cases of four different OS families — or OS categories, if you will: Linux, Windows, OS X and iOS/Android. Note though that no matter the device or the OS, for the connection to be successful we need to be outside of the OpenVPN server’s local network. In addition, if there’s a firewall in front of the server –and it probably is– then we ought to put a new rule in place which essentially states something like this: + +*Redirect all incoming UDP packets for port 1194 to port 1194/UDP of the server’s public-facing network interface.* + +That’s some simple firewall rule, don’t you think? And without further ado, let’s establish our first connection to the fabulous OpenVPN server of ours. + +**Linux**. All we need is the openvpn package installed. One way to connect to the remote OpenVPN server is to fire up a terminal, change to the ovpn-client directory and from the root user account –or with the assistance of sudo– type something like this: + + /usr/sbin/openvpn --config client.conf + +Anytime we want to terminate the connection we just hit [CTRL+C]. + +**Windows**. A free OpenVPN client is the so called [OpenVPN Desktop Client][3]. The configuration file client.conf must be renamed to client.ovpn and that’s the file we should give to the OpenVPN Desktop Client. The application will read client.ovpn and create a new connection profile for the OpenVPN server. + +![](http://parabing.com/assets/uploads/2014/06/02-Connected.jpg) + +**OS X**. A free OpenVPN client for OS X is [tunnelblick][4]. There is also [Viscosity][5] which is commercial and happens to be our favorite. Viscosity will read client.conf and create a new connection profile for the remote server. + +iOS/Android. An excellent choice is OpenVPN connect. It is free of charge and available from the [App Store][6] as well as the Google [Play store][7]. + +Regardless of the computing platform, sometimes we’d like to check if we’re actually using the OpenVPN server we think we’re using. One way to do that is by following this simple 4-step procedure: + +Prior to connecting to the OpenVPN server we… + +- visit a site such as [whatip.com][8] and take note of our public IP +- visit [dnsleaktest.com][10, perform the standard test, take note of the name servers we’re using + +![](http://parabing.com/assets/uploads/2014/06/03-DNS.png) + +After connecting to the OpenVPN server we repeat the above two steps. If we get two different public IPs, this means we do go out on the net through the remote OpenVPN server. In addition, if we get two different sets of name servers, then there are no DNS leaks. + +### Final thoughts ### + +I use three different OpenVPN servers, all custom-made. One of them runs on the pfSense router at my home office in Thessaloniki, Greece. I use this server when I’m out of office and want secure access to the home LAN. The other two OpenVPN servers are hosted on two different VPSes, one in Reykjavik, Iceland, and the other in New Jersey, USA. Whenever I’m out and about and feel like using a random WiFi hotspot, I don’t even have to think of the security implications: I simply connect to the Reykjavik server and start surfing the web normally. There are also some times when I want to casually check out a service which is geographically restricted to the US. In these not-so-common cases the New Jersey server comes in handy, for when I connect to it I get a public IP from the U, S of A and hence access to that otherwise restricted service. It is worth noting that some service providers maintain blacklists with numerous well-known VPN companies. And that’s *exactly* one of the advantages of setting up your own OpenVPN server on a VPS provider of your choosing: It’s unlikely that this provider is blacklisted. + +No matter where the physical location of your server is, OpenVPN ensures that the traffic flow between the client and the server is strongly encrypted. What happens to the traffic leaving the OpenVPN server is another story. Depending on the application-layer protocol it may still be encrypted, but it could be unencrypted as well. So unless you have absolute control of the OpenVPN server and of the local network it belongs to, you cannot fully trust the administrator at the other end. The moral of this is apparent: If you really care about your privacy, then you should keep in mind that your own behavior may indeed undermine it. + +One example will hopefully get the point across. You have a well configured OpenVPN server in the cloud. You use any random WiFi hotspot anytime you feel like it and without the slightest bit of worry, thanks to that heroic OpenVPN server. Then you fire up your favorite mail client to get your email from this good, old mail server which still uses plain SMTP. Guess what? Your username and password leave the OpenVPN server in plain text, i.e. unencrypted. At the same time a bored administrator in the vicinity of the OpenVPN server could be easily sniffing-out your credentials and storing them in their ever-growing list named “random happy people.txt”. + +So what do you do? Simple. You continue using your OpenVPN server, but refrain from using applications which talk old and/or insecure protocols. + +Enjoy your brand new OpenVPN server! + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: http://parabing.com/2014/06/openvpn-on-ubuntu/ + +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[1]:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Openvpn +[2]:http://www.ubuntu.com/server +[3]:http://swupdate.openvpn.net/downloads/openvpn-client.msi +[4]:https://code.google.com/p/tunnelblick +[5]:https://www.sparklabs.com/viscosity +[6]:https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/openvpn-connect/id590379981?mt=8 +[7]:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.openvpn.openvpn +[8]:http://www.whatip.com/ +[9]:https://dnsleaktest.com/ \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/sources/tech/20140702 Command Line Tuesdays--Part Three.md b/sources/tech/20140702 Command Line Tuesdays--Part Three.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..ccaab0075c --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/tech/20140702 Command Line Tuesdays--Part Three.md @@ -0,0 +1,84 @@ +暑假 先来一发 Luoxcat 翻译 +Command Line Tuesdays – Part Three +================================================================================ +Today, mr Shotts takes us on a first part of a guided tour through our file system. We’ll learn how to visit, list files within directories and we’ll learn to use some options for the first time. So let’s begin with the first command of the week. + +### ls ### + +ls is a command used to list files in a directory. It can be used in various ways. These various ways come with using a form of adding an **option** to our command. To make things clearer; You can type only ls. But, you can also add an option, which will modify your command. It can come in useful when you want to sandbox some of the information, when looking for something specific, and the command issues a very long output, you can, for example, narrow it down to only specific information. + +That’s what an option is. And formally we can write it down like this: + + command -option argument + +Command is, well, a command we write in (like pwd, ls or anything else we have learned by now). + +We already stated above the purpose of an option. But let me note it should be written exactly as it’s in the form; With a dash in front of it. So, if the option is l, you should put **-l** after the command. + +An **argument** is an object upon which the command operates (in this case, it will be directories, as we’ll learning how to navigate through them). + +So, let’s try out ls, and use it on the /etc directory in our home folder. This time, without any options. + +![](https://news.opensuse.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Screenshot-30.-06.-2014-184127.png) + +There you go, a whole bunch of files. It also sorts them by colours. The blue ones are directories, the white ones are files, the green one seems like a shell script of some sort. There are more colors, as they represent different file types. + +Next, you can use the same command, but with an option -l added. Option -l will list the same files and directories, but in a long format. In case you need more information: + +![](https://news.opensuse.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Screenshot-30.-06.-2014-184542.png) + +### The Long Format ### + +So, using the long format, you see much more information, and some crazy looking signs like -rw-r–r– at the beginning of all lines. Actually, here’s a scheme, representing what all of the given information actually means. + +![](https://news.opensuse.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Screenshot-30.-06.-2014-184829.png) + +File Name is the name of the file. Modification time is the last time the file has been modified. Size is the size of the file in bytes. Group is the name of the group that has file permissions along with the owner, and Owner is the user who owns the file. The most important one is… + +### …File Permissions ### + +That’s the gibberish at the beginning of every line in long format. The first character is the file type. If it’s a ‘d’, it means the file’s a directory. If it’s ‘-’, it means it’s an ordinary file. The next three characters represent the read, write and execution rights of the file’s owner. The next three are the same rights of the group that also has access to the file, and the last three characters represent rights of everyone else trying to use the file. + +So for example, if we have a file which in long format displays: -rw-r–r–, it means it’s an ordinary file (the first ‘-’), the owner of the file can read and write the file, but he can’t execute it, as it’s not an executable file (the ‘rw-’ characters after the initial ‘-’), and the user group and everyone else can only read the file (you can see ‘r–’ sequence repeating twice. If the user group had ‘rwx’ instead of ‘r–’, it would mean they could read, write and execute the file). + +Next option for ls is ls -la .. – this will list all of the files, as in a usual command, hidden files are not shown. It will list all files in the parent of the working directory in long format. + +### less ### + +Less is a command which will display your text file. For example, you’re looking for text file os-release in /etc. You have succesfully found it there with ls /etc, and now you want to read it. + +You just use less /etc/os-release. + +![](https://news.opensuse.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Screenshot-30.-06.-2014-190252.png) + +..and there you go. + +How do you control less? + +Easy, with your keyboard! + +less will display only one page of your text at a time. To go forward one page, you can press **Page Up, or ‘b’**. To go back one page, you can use **Page Down, or space**. Capital **G** will take you to the end of the text file, while ‘**1G**‘ will take you to the beginning of the text. **/characters** will search for characters inside the text (for example, if you write /suse, it will search for occurances of suse inside your text and mark them). n will repeat the last search you performed, and **h** will display all your options (h, as in haalp!). + +![](https://news.opensuse.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/halp.jpg) + +You quit less with the letter q. + +### file ### + +The file command will show what kind of file is that you’re looking for, be it ASCII text, a jpg image, a bash script etc. As we performed our exercise with /etc/os-release, let’s use it here also. + +![](https://news.opensuse.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Screenshot-30.-06.-2014-191402.png) + +There you go, os-release is an ASCII text file.

-为什么我们不接收不良Linux 接口 -================================================================================ -由于最近The Witcher 2的惨败，我想写下些想法，为什么我们不应该接受来自开发人员的不良接口。 - -最近几年在我们linux的游戏库有太多该死的游戏，导致你现在可以看到来自linux玩家的评论“我已经有很多游戏了！”现在我可以想象到很多熟悉的声音。感谢Valve&Steam，之前我们从来没有看见过这么多自来开发者的注意力。 - -同样由于开发者的提交，我们看见了伴随而来的接口，它们，坦率地说，质量十分的糟糕或者说对于多数人们彻彻底底的不会用。 - -这个问题就是如果我们继续接受低水平质量的接口，Linux就会赢得一个游戏质量水平低的声誉。严肃地想想一个贴图的大怪兽。 - -再想象一下，一个3A开发者给linux推送大量游戏，使用用了The Witcher2接口“eON”的技术。那就是说我们有了大量开发者，就像突然看起来Linux有很多大牌游戏了。然后你可以看见大量的人尝试Linux，却看见它们的游戏运行者糟糕的画面，在同等硬件水品下，就会给它们一个印象，linux对游戏不友好。所以，这对所有人都不好。 - - -我已经看见许多人说“工具包用于接口真的没关系？”。这在我的眼里看来是一个非常天真的声明。当然，这有关系， 它意味Linux的游戏质量光和天的不同。它直接导致我回到关于Linux游戏的认知之上的观点。 -你可以坚持说工具包没有关系和使用任何比较/类比你幻想，但如果工具包是导致问题的根源，如同当我们讨论计算机软件它会占用99%的时间，是的，它当然有关系！ - -如今，我已经看见许多评论，来自其他主流网页声明，我们应该接受它们并且作感谢状，我们毕竟拥有他们。那真是个白痴的声明，那些不看大局的人。 - -![](http://www.gamingonlinux.com/uploads/articles/article_images/1401025331gol2.jpg) - -想想，那些开发者和发行商认为可以接受推送的糟糕linux接口送出了门，总有一天得召回。它们的脑里只有利润。消费者对Linux游戏的感知就会进一步恶化，就是因为这些不良的接口。 - -我完全赞同来子开发者的接口，当然毕竟我运行着这个网站。但是，我作为一个消费者不愿意在windows可运行的游戏付钱，可是在linux运行得却像蜗牛，为什么我应该？为什么你应该？ - -最后增加一个观点：当开发者研究出有问题，发布在社区，你们应该从不攻击它们，这是不可接受的。反馈是很好，骂人是很孩子气，这使得Linux再一次看起来糟糕。 -

+这个争论无疑给许多Linux用户带来了麻烦。争论不能普遍归结为哪个发行版是真正最适合新用户的，而是哪个发行版受这些争论者的喜爱。如果我们撇开个人喜爱，我们会看到更清楚的一面。但即使这样，清晰也很快会被新用户的需求和期望遮蔽。考虑到这点，我决定采取一个不同的方法来找出“对新用户来说最好的发行版”。我评判最好发行版的标准不仅是易用，而且还要呼吁由日益增长的移动界面隐喻推动带来的现代设计美学。 + +为了这次评测，发行版必须要有如下要求： + +- 非常友好 +- 包括，开箱即用，所有常用的应用程序 +- 包括某个形式的应用程序商店 +- 提供一个时尚的用户界面 + +让我解释一下各个标准 + +### 用户友好 ### + +这是一个备受争议的话题。但事实的真相是——新用户必须能够获得一种风格的Linux并开始使用，需要很少或不需要解释。如果必须很出太多解释，那么这个发行版便不是用户友好的。我不想成为那样的人，但是几乎任何用户都可以在近乎零指导的情况下坐在Windows 7或OS X桌面前并开始使用它。这是每一个Linux桌面都应当争取去做的。 + +### 常用应用程序 ### + +安装好系统后用户不应该去安装必需的程序。那么什么是必需的呢？每年列表都会变短。目前，必备的程序列表如下： + +- 网页浏览器：Chrome或者Firefox（对不起，其他的浏览器不需提供） +- 电子邮件客户端：Thunderbird是显而易见的选择。 +- Office办公套件：LibreOffice。就这样。 +- 音乐播放器：播放本地文件以及连接到流媒体服务（比如Spotify）。 + +这是几乎所有用户需要的应用程序的简表。 + +### 应用程序商店 ### + +由于移动设备需求的日益增长，用户已经习惯了应用商店。Linux有应用商店很长时间了（Synaptic是最古老的一个）。没有一个经深思熟虑做的应用商店，用户将会挣扎于在Linux环境中添加软件。毫无疑问，这一点至关重要。 + +### 时尚的界面 ### + +我已经多次提到移动设备的美化。由于iOS和Android，用户越来越喜欢时尚的界面。Linux的桌面需要进行效仿并且用独特的、时尚的和易用的界面来吸引用户注意力。旧的隐喻在多触控友好的移动世界里不再有影响力。 + +排名前三的发行版 + +以文中的标准，哪个发行版本满足了（或超过）我们的需求？首先，让我们来审查一下前三名的候选者。以下哪个满足了（或超过）标准。 + +#### Ubuntu #### + +[Ubuntu Linux][1]一直为用户友好型Linux的王者。开箱即用，寻找一个迷人和易用的桌面（Unity）是一个挑战，甚至是对于那些对平台不熟悉的人。它的桌面布局虽然与众不同，但却是合乎逻辑和很直观的。对于在桌面环境中添加一个最强大的搜索工具，在Linux中Ubuntu Unity应当获得最高成就。 + +#### Linux Mint #### + +如果认为有一个篡夺王位的发行版，那它就是[Linux Mint][2]。Linux Mint做了更多桌面的标准方法，但是图层华丽且多变使其从老旧的桌面隐喻中脱颖而出。Linux Mint基于Ubuntu，所以它得益于“老大哥”Ubuntu的稳定性和可靠性。 + +#### Linux Deepin #### + +用户友好型列表中的新成员是[Linux Deepin][3]。这个相对较新的受欢迎的发行版来自中国，而且应该扬起一些认真的浪波。为什么这样说？因为它使得Linux桌面转变为艺术美；同时也保持了高水平的用户友好性。我期待它的新版本发布将是个大事件。Linux Deepin使用的是GNOME 3桌面并将它重组得完全不同的,完全不可思议。 + +### 各发行版的比分 ### + +在最佳的竞争者名单中，我们来比较一下每一个标准和等级。每个发行版的比分如下：对于每个标准，发行版排名从高到底（第一名得一分，最后一名得三分）。最后，总分决定谁是冠军——最低得分获胜。 + +#### 用户友好性 #### + +这可能是最严密的分类和最艰难的判别。每个发行版以不同的方法在用户友好性上都各有优势。最后，我的排名是： + +1. Linux Mint + +2. Ubuntu Linux + +3. Linux Deepin + +为什么是这样呢？Mint仅有微小的优势，因为它的开始按钮，任务栏和桌面图标仍然使用旧的桌面隐喻。胜者的优势很微小，Ubuntu和Linux Deepin要求的学习曲线近乎为零——甚至是对于未使用者。 + +#### 常用的应用程序 #### + +这一类别难以判断的唯一原因是因为每个发行版都包括所有必要的应用程序。虽然Linux Deepin目前提供的是金山Office（一个最好的移动办公套件解决方案），它计划在2014发行版本中默认使用LibreOffice。 + +常用程序的我的一个问题是关于音乐播放器。虽然我在线听过很多音乐（使用Spotify客户端），但当我播放本地音乐时，总是使用Clementine。他们的默认播放器是： + +- Ubuntu: Rhythmbox +- Linux Mint: Banshee +- Linux Deepen: DMusic. + +三者中，Banshee（图1）提供了最多的功能，DMusic（图2）提供了最好的界面，（令人惊讶的）Rhythmbox（图3）目前最不稳定。 + +![](http://www.linux.com/images/stories/41373/banshee.png) + +banshee + +![](http://www.linux.com/images/stories/41373/dmusic.png) + +dmusic + +![](http://www.linux.com/images/stories/41373/rhythmbox.png) + +rhythmbox + +所以，他们得分多少？如下： + +1. Linux Mint + +2. Ubuntu Linux + +3. Linux Deepin + +#### 应用程序商店 #### + +如果不分析这部分将难进行。为什么呢？因为对于新用户应用商店可以轻易成就或是毁掉一个Linux发行版。总会有应用需求而且没有用户想经过命令行的重重考验。每个发行版都有自己的应用商店。 + +- Ubuntu: Ubuntu软件中心 +- Mint: 软件管理器 +- Linux Deepin: Deepin软件中心 + +应该说，这些工具中的每一个都是基于Ubuntu软件中心。奇怪的是Ubuntu软件中心却正好排在最底。主要原因是Ubuntu软件中心太慢了——甚至在一个非常强大的机器上。 + +我将应用商店排名设为如下： + +1. Linux Deepin + +2. Linux Mint + +3. Ubuntu Linux + +每个应用商店有非常相似的功能。Linux Deepin获得第一的原因有两个：界面易于控制而且程序开启速度远远快于Ubuntu软件中心和Mint软件管理器。 + +#### 时尚的界面 #### + +在这部分Linux Mint远远落后。尽管它提供了一个华美的界面和有很浅的学习曲线，但相比之下它仍然是一个非常过时的桌面。甚至在强大的硬件（有强大的显卡）上，Linux Mint仍然很容易被看成是来自90年代末的桌面。为了评判结果，我们必须看看是Ubuntu Linux还是Linux Deepin能带我们走进未来。胜者是： + +1. Linux Deepin + +2. Ubuntu Linux + +3. Linux Mint + +Linux Deepin使用GNOME 3来制作一个使用起来很漂亮的GNOME和OSX的混合体，你会认为你在处理一件互动的艺术品。 + +### 总冠军 ### + +虽然这是很初步的，对新用户来说最好的Linux发行版顺序应该是： + +1. Linux Mint的总得分是7 + +2. Linux Deepin的总得分是8 + +3. Ubuntu Linux的总得分是9 + +如果你想知道关于这篇文章的作者主张，要知道：我已经使用Ubuntu Linux很多年了（而且仍在用）。我最近一直在说“如果有一个Linux发行版动摇使用Ubuntu的想法，它便是Linux Deepin。”虽然我很欣赏Linux Mint，但我只是用它来进行测试。当说到对新用户最好的Linux发型版，Linux Mint是显而易见的赢家。 + +这件事真正的真相是——你在使用这些桌面中任何一个都不会错。他们都各有所长。如果你追求真正的美丽，使用Linux Deepin吧。如果你想要漂亮外观与易用结合，那就使用Ubuntu Linux。如果你只想要简单而且并不在乎漂亮的外观，那就用Linux Mint。不管你选哪一个，这都是三赢的局面。 + +你怎么认为？你会如何排这三个桌面的名次？或者，你是否会写一个不同的Linux发行版，该发行版在外表上来说对新用户最好的？（还有原因是什么？） + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: http://www.linux.com/news/software/applications/775873-the-best-linux-distribution-for-new-users/ + +译者：[linuhap](https://github.com/linuhap) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[1]:http://www.ubuntu.com/ +[2]:http://www.linuxmint.com/ +[3]:http://www.linuxdeepin.com/index.en.html \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/translated/talk/20140624 Performance benchmarks--KVM vs. Xen.md b/translated/talk/20140624 Performance benchmarks--KVM vs. Xen.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..e6abc80fe0 --- /dev/null +++ b/translated/talk/20140624 Performance benchmarks--KVM vs. Xen.md @@ -0,0 +1,94 @@ +KVM和Xen的性能基准测试 +================================================================================ +在上周，我们讨论了 KVM 和 Xen 的性能上一些令人感兴趣的话题后，我打算自己做一些这方面的研究。我能找到的最新的资料，是来自[2013年 Phoronix Haswell 性能评测][1]上的基准测试。当然，还有[2011年的评测][2]，由于 Xen 已经被收录进 Kernel 3.0，这些曾经都是热门话题。 + +2011年的测试提供了[许多很好的基准报表][3]，我尽最大努力把它们列出的属性重新测试一遍，但少测了两三个基准测试，原因是它们在未经特定优化的配置后跑出来的数据不是很好，或者它们需要跑很长时间才能得到结果。 + +### 测试环境 ### + +测试环境由两台一模一样的超微服务器组成，都配备一颗[Intel 至强 E3-1220][4]（4核，3.10GHz），24G 金士顿 DDR3 内存，4块西数 RE-3 160G 磁盘（组成 RAID10 阵列）。另外 BIOS 也是一模一样。 + +所有测试项目（即实体机和虚拟机）都在 Fedora 20 （开 SELinux）上进行，并且测试过程中没有跑很多的不相关的服务。这里列一下相关服务的版本： + +- Kernel: 3.14.8 +- For KVM: qemu-kvm 1.6.2 +- For Xen: xen 4.3.2 + +根文件系统是 XFS，使用默认配置。虚拟机使用 virt-manager 来创建（virt-mamager 也使用默认配置）。虚拟磁盘使用 raw 镜像，容量为 8GB，虚拟4颗 CPU。Xen 虚拟机使用 [PVHVM][5] 建立虚拟磁盘。 + +### 警告 ### + +也许有人会考虑到 Fedora 是红帽公司所有，红帽一直在维护 KVM，而 Xen 则自从[在2009年红帽重新选择 KVM 作为虚拟化产品][6]后，再没得到这个公司的维护。在本测试中这个因素不会对结果产生任何影响，不过可以在心里稍微注意一下。 + +不考虑资源竞争产生的影响。在大多数虚拟服务器上，你可以跑多个虚拟机，而这些虚拟机会争用 CPU 时间片、磁盘 IO、网络带宽等等资源。在本测试中也不考虑这些因素。一台虚拟机抢到资源少，性能就差，而另一台抢得多，性能就好（LCTT：它们的性能总和，就可以大致当作是 KVM 或 Xen 的性能了）。 + +本测试运行在 Intel 的 CPU 上。如果使用的是 AMD 或 ARM，可能有些数据会不一样。 + +### 结果 ### + +本测试使用裸机作为虚拟服务测试的基准设备。在不跑虚拟机的情况下，两台裸机的性能偏差不会大于0.51% + +在所有测试中，KVM 的性能相比宿主机而言下降了1.5%以内，除了两个测试。第一个是 7-zip 压缩，比宿主机慢了 2.79%。第二个就奇怪了，我们搭了一个邮件服务器，用 PostMark 测试其性能，结果表明 KVM 竟比宿主机快了4.11%。然后我在两台服务器中重新跑了几遍 PostMark 测试，结果性能差异基本不变，浮动在1%以内。由于我对 virtio 的内部机制没有很深的理解，我只能在以后再对这个怪现象进行进一步了解。 + +Xen 的性能相对宿主机而言差异就比较大了。有3个测试性能下降在2.5%以内，剩下的性能下降率都是 KVM 的2～4倍。PostMark 测试的性能比 KVM 慢了14.41%，这结果令我大吃一惊。重新跑了下测试，性能差还是在14%左右。KVM 表现最好的两个测试：CPU 测试和 MAFFT 对齐测试，是 Xen 表现最差的。 + +现在奉上一个总结表： + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

The update speaks to Red Hat's interests in outfitting RHEL with many of the latest enterprise and data center features. Here are the five top-of-the-line new additions to RHEL 7 that caught our eyes. +在前一个主版本发布3年之后，经过至少6个月的[公开测试][1]，RHEL（Red Hat Enterprise Linux）版本7终于发布了。这次更新表明了红帽子公司对于在RHEL中添加最新的以企业和数据为中心的特性的兴趣。这里列举了其中5个最吸引人眼球的新特性。 + +### 1. Docker ### + +RHEL 7中最大的新特性就是[紧密集成][2]了巨受欢迎的应用程序虚拟化技术[Docker][3]。随着[Docker 1.0发布][4]，把它集成到RHEL 7的时机是最合适不过了。 + +用Docker包装的应用程序可以独立于操作系统，所以他们可以在操作系统之间移植并且正常运行。RHEL 7打算尽可能高效地使用Docker，以防止应用程序竞争资源或者为使用哪种运行时环境而困惑。 + +从RHEL的Docker地图上的长期计划表来看，这可能会超越操作系统本身，发展成一系列的Docker容器，它可以支持用最小的开销部署一个系统。这个被称为"[Atomic项目][5]"的计划还处于早期阶段，红帽子公司准备首先将它首先部署在他的Fedora Linux发行版，仅仅当做对前沿技术的测试。 + +### 2. Systemd ### + +包含systemd进程管理器可能引起系统管理员和Linux专家之间激烈的争论。自专用Unix出现以来，systemd就被开发用于替代init系统，它使得启动过程中装载服务更加高效。 + +因为systemd的这个潜在的痛处，红帽子公司没有立刻添加systemd（到RHEL）。早在2010发布的Fedora版本15就已经包含了systemd作为默认项目，这给了红帽子公司一次很好的了解systemd在真实世界的运行的经验。同样，systemd也没有武断地加入RHEL 7，只是作为这个OS大计划的一部分。例如，红帽子公司希望通过使用systemd加强对RHEL 7中Docker容器的支持。 + +### 3. XFS by default ### + +第3个主要的改变是使XFS成为RHEL默认的文件系统，尽管这可能不那么引人瞩目。 + +最初由Silicon Graphics International（硅谷图形公司）创建的XFS在Linux系统上用做生产环境已经很长时间了。在RHEL 7上它将支持高达500TB的文件系统。RHEL 6默认使用ext4，尽管它有XFS选项。红帽子的竞争对手Suse Linux [也支持XFS][6],尽管它安装时[默认使用ext3][7]。 + +非常不幸的是，没有真正的方法可以将RHEL目前使用的其他文件系统，比如ext4或者btrfs移植到XFS。只能备份然后重建（来进行移植）。 + +### 4. 兼容微软的身份管理 ### + +就算是那些不是微软系统粉丝的管理员也对微软目录服务保持勉强的尊重。RHEL 7添加了两个关键的特性以优化处理微软目录服务的方式。跨域认证现在可以在RHEL 7和微软目录服务之间建立，所以目录服务用户可以直接访问Linux侧的资源，不需要再进行一次登录。RHEL 7另一个目录服务相关的附加特性，是基于DNS信息自动发现和加入目录服务（或者其他红帽子认证服务）。 + +### 5. Performance Co-Pilot ### + +进行性能调整的时候看不到实时数据就像是开着挡风玻璃被刷上了油漆的车，所以RHEL 7添加了一个新的性能监控系统PCP([Performance Co-Pilot][8])，PCP最初由Silicon Graphics International（硅谷图形）[创建][9]，但是现在它是RHEL 7的一部分。除了监控和记录系统状态，PCP还为其他子系统提供获取数据的API和工具集，比如正如你猜到的，刚刚介绍的systemd。 + +遵循这个思路，另一个次要的附加特性：新的性能配置文件。RHEL 6已经有符合特殊应用场景的调整RHEL的配置文件。RHEL 7不仅默认有一个新的着重使产量最大化的配置文件，而且包含另一个新的平衡性能表现和能源消耗的配置文件。 + +------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via:http://www.infoworld.com/t/linux/keep-eye-these-5-new-features-in-rhel-7-244023 + +译者：[love_daisy_love](https://github.com/CNprober) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[1]:http://www.infoworld.com/t/linux/red-hat-enterprise-linux-7-beta-now-available-232520 +[2]:http://www.infoworld.com/t/application-virtualization/red-hat-fast-tracks-docker-apps-enterprise-linux-238122 +[3]:http://www.infoworld.com/t/application-virtualization/docker-unleashed-app-portability-gets-boost-231716 +[4]:http://www.infoworld.com/d/application-development/review-docker-10-ready-prime-time-243935 +[5]:http://www.projectatomic.io/ +[6]:https://www.suse.com/products/server/technical-information/ +[7]:https://www.suse.com/products/server/technical-information/ +[8]:http://developerblog.redhat.com/2013/11/19/exploratory-performance-pcp/ +[9]:http://oss.sgi.com/projects/pcp/index.html \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/translated/tech/20140603 Write your first Linux Kernel module.md b/translated/tech/20140603 Write your first Linux Kernel module.md deleted file mode 100644 index c70ec1ec11..0000000000 --- a/translated/tech/20140603 Write your first Linux Kernel module.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,369 +0,0 @@ -编写属于你的第一个Linux内核模块 -================================================================================ -> 曾经多少次想要在内核游荡？曾经多少次茫然不知方向？你不要再对着它迷惘，让我们指引你走向前方…… -内核编程常常看起来像是黑魔法，而在亚瑟 C 克拉克的眼中，它八成就是了。Linux内核和它的用户空间是大不相同的：抛开漫不经心，你必须小心翼翼，因为你编程中的一个bug就会影响到整个系统。浮点数学做起来可不容易，堆栈固定而渺小，而你写的代码总是异步的，因此你需要想想怎样让它并发。而除了所有这一切之外，Linux内核只是一个很大的、很复杂的C程序，它对每个人开放，任何人都去读它、学习它并改进它，而你也可以是其中之一。 - -> “开始内核编程的最简单的方式 -> 是写模块——一段代码 -> 可以用来动态加载进内核。” - -可能，开始内核编程的最简单的方式，就是写模块——一段可以动态加载进内核并从内核移除的代码。模块所能做的事是有限的——例如，他们不能添加或移除像进程描述符这样的常规数据结构域。但是，在其它方面，他们是成熟的内核级的代码，可以在需要时随时编译进内核（这样就可以摒弃所有的限制了）。完全可以在Linux源代码树以外来开发并编译一个模块（这并不奇怪，它称为树外开发），如果你只是想稍微玩玩，而并不想提交修改以包含到主线内核中去，这样的方式是很方便的。 - -在本教程中，我们将开发一个简单的内核模块用以创建一个**/dev/reverse**设备。写入该设备的字符串将以逆序的方式读回（“Hello World”读成“World Hello”）。这是一个流行的节目采访智力游戏，而当你展示能力来实施时，你也可能获得一些奖励分。在开始前，有一句忠告：你的模块中的一个bug会导致系统崩溃（虽然可能性不大，但还是有可能的）和数据丢失。在开始前，请确保你已经将重要数据备份，或者，采用一种更好的方式，在虚拟机中进行试验。 -### 尽可能避免root身份 ### - -> 默认情况下，**/dev/reverse**只有root可以使用，因此你不得不使用**sudo**来测试该程序。要解决该问题，可以创建一个包含以下内容的**/lib/udev/rules.d/99-reverse.rules**文件： -> -> SUBSYSTEM=="misc", KERNEL=="reverse", MODE="0666" -> -> 别忘了重新插入模块。让设备节点让非root用户访问这往往不是一个好主意，但是在开发其间却是十分有用的，这不是说以root身份运行二进制测试文件也不是个好主意。 - -#### 模块的构造 #### - -由于大多数的Linux内核模块是用C写的（除了低级别特定架构部分），所以推荐你将模块以单一文件形式保存（例如，reverse.c）。我们已经把完整的源代码放在GitHub上——这里我们将看其中的一些片段。开始时，我们先要包含一些常见的文件头，并用预定义的宏来描述模块： - - #include - #include - #include - - MODULE_LICENSE("GPL"); - MODULE_AUTHOR("Valentine Sinitsyn "); - MODULE_DESCRIPTION("In-kernel phrase reverser"); - -这里一切都直接明了，除了**MODULE_LICENSE()**：它不仅仅是一个标记。内核坚定地支持GPL兼容代码，因此如果你把许可证设置为其它非GPL兼容的（如，“专利”），特定的内核功能将在你的模块中不可用。 - -### 什么时候不该写内核模块 ### - -> 内核编程很有趣，但是在现实项目中写（尤其是调试）内核代码要求特定的技巧。通常来讲，在没有其它方式解决你的问题时，你才应该沉入内核级别。可能你可以待在用户空间中，如果： - -> - 你开发一个USB驱动 —— 请查看[libusb][1]。 -> - 你开发一个文件系统 —— 试试[FUSE][2]。 -> - 你在扩展Netfilter —— 那么[libnetfilter_queue][3]对你有所帮助。 -> -> 通常，本地内核代码会干得更好，但是对于许多项目而言，这点性能丢失并不严重。 -由于内核编程总是异步的，没有Linux顺序执行得**main()**函数来运行你的模块。取而代之的是，你为各种事件提供了回调函数，像这个： - - static int __init reverse_init(void) - { - printk(KERN_INFO "reverse device has been registered\n"); - return 0; - } - - static void __exit reverse_exit(void) - { - printk(KERN_INFO "reverse device has been unregistered\n"); - } - - module_init(reverse_init); - module_exit(reverse_exit); - -这儿，我们定义了函数，用来访问模块的插入和移除功能，只有第一个是必要的。目前，它们只是打印消息到内核环缓冲区（可以通过**dmesg**命令从用户空间访问）；**KERN_INFO**是日志等级（注意，没有逗号）。**_init**和**_exit**是属性 —— 联结到函数的元数据片（或者变量）。属性在用户空间的C代码中是很罕见的，但是内核中却很普遍。所有标记为**_init**的，会在初始化后再生（还记得那条老旧的“释放未使用的内核内存……”信息？）。**__exit**表明，当代码被静态构建进内核时，该函数可以安全地优化。最后，**module_init()**和**module_exit()**这两个宏将**reverse_init()**和**reverse_exit()**函数设置成为我们模块的生命周期回调函数。实际的函数名称并不重要，你可以称它们为**init()**和**exit()**，或者**start()**和**stop()**，你想叫什么就叫什么吧。在你的模块外，它们被申明成为静态的和不可见的。事实上，内核中的任何函数都是不可见的，除非明确地被导出。然而，在内核程序员中，给你的函数加上模块名前缀是约定俗成的。 - -这些是基本要素 —— 让我们把事情变得更有趣些。模块可以接收参数，就像这样： - - # modprobe foo bar=1 - -**modinfo**命令显示了所有模块接受的参数，而这些也可以在**/sys/module//parameters**下作为文件使用。我们的模块需要一个缓冲区来存储短语 —— 让我们把这大小设置为用户可配置。添加**MODULE_DESCRIPTION()**以下的三行： - - static unsigned long buffer_size = 8192; - module_param(buffer_size, ulong, (S_IRUSR | S_IRGRP | S_IROTH)); - MODULE_PARM_DESC(buffer_size, "Internal buffer size"); - -这儿，我们定义了一个变量来存储该值，将其包裹到一个参数中，并通过sysfs来让所有人可读。参数的描述（最后一行）会出现在modinfo的输出中。 - -由于用户可以直接设置**buffer_size**，我们需要在**reverseinit()**来清除它。你总该检查来自内核外的数据 —— 如果你不这么做，你就是会将你自身置于内核异常之中，设置造成安全漏洞。 - - static int __init reverse_init() - { - if (!buffer_size) - return -1; - printk(KERN_INFO - "reverse device has been registered, buffer size is %lu bytes\n", - buffer_size); - return 0; - } - -来自模块初始化函数的非0返回值意味着模块执行失败。 - -### 导航 ### - -> 但你开发模块时，Linux内核就是你所需一切的源头。然而，它相当大，你可能在查找你所要的内容时会有困难。幸运的是，在浏览庞大的代码库时，有工具可以帮助你干得轻松一点。首先，是Cscope —— 在终端中运行的一个令人肃然起敬的工具。你所要做的，就是在内核源代码的顶级目录中运行**make cscope && cscope**。Cscope和Vim以及Emacs整合得很好，因此你可以在使用你最喜爱的编辑器舒适地工作时来使用它。 - -> 如果基于终端的工具不是你的最爱，那么就访问[http://lxr.free-electrons.com][4]吧。它是一个基于web的内核导航工具，即使它的功能没有Cscope来得多（例如，你不能方便地找到函数的用法），但它仍然提供了足够多的快速查询功能。 -现在是时候来编译模块了。你将需要用于正在运行的内核版本的头文件（**linux-headers**，或者同等软件包）和**build-essential**（或者类似的包）。接下来，该创建一个标准的Makefile模板： - - obj-m += reverse.o - all: - make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) modules - clean: - make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) clean - -现在，调用**make**来构建你的第一个模块。如果你输入的都正确，在当前目录内会发现reverse.ko文件。使用**sudo insmod reverse.ko**插入，然后运行： - - $ dmesg | tail -1 - [ 5905.042081] reverse device has been registered, buffer size is 8192 bytes - -恭喜了！然而，目前这一行还只是在逗你玩而已 —— 还没有设备节点呢。让我们来修复它。 - -#### 混杂设备 #### - -在Linux中，有一种特殊的字符设备类型，叫做“混杂设备”（或者简称为“misc”）。它设计用于只有一个单一接入点的小型设备驱动，而这正是我们所需要的。所有混杂设备共享同一个主设备号（10），因此一个驱动(**drivers/char/misc.c**）就可以查看它们所有设备了，而这些设备用次设备号来区分。在所有其它意义上，它们只是普通字符设备。 - -要为该设备注册一个次设备号（以及一个接入点），你需要声明**struct misc_device**，填上所有字段（注意语法），然后使用指针指向该结构函数来调用**misc_register()**。为了这个能工作，你也需要包含**linux/miscdevice.h**头文件： - - static struct miscdevice reverse_misc_device = { - .minor = MISC_DYNAMIC_MINOR, - .name = "reverse", - .fops = &reverse_fops - }; - static int __init reverse_init() - { - ... - misc_register(&reverse_misc_device); - printk(KERN_INFO ... - } - -这儿，我们为名为“reverse”的设备请求一个第一个可用的（动态的）次设备号；省略号表明我们已经见过的省略的代码。别忘了在模块卸下后注销掉该设备。 - - static void __exit reverse_exit(void) - { - misc_deregister(&reverse_misc_device); - ... - } - -‘fops’字段存储了一个指针，指向结构函数**file_operations**（在Linux/fs.h中已声明），而这真是我们模块的接入点。**reverse_fops**定义如下： - - static struct file_operations reverse_fops = { - .owner = THIS_MODULE, - .open = reverse_open, - ... - .llseek = noop_llseek - }; - -再者，**reverse_fops**包含了一系列回调函数（也称之为方法），当用户空间代码打开一个设备时，就会执行。从该设备读取，向该设备写入，或者关闭文件描述符。如果你忽略了所有这些，就会使用一个灵敏的回调函数来替代。这就是为什么我们明确给**noop_llseek()**设置了**llseek**方法，而它却什么也不干（就像名称中暗指的）。默认部署改变了文件指针，我们现在也不想我们的设备被找到（这是你们的今天的回家作业）。 - -#### 我在关闭时打开 #### - -让我们实施该方法。我们将分配一个新的缓冲区给每个打开的文件描述符，并在它关闭时释放。这事实上并不安全：如果一个用户空间应用程序泄漏了描述符（也许是故意的），它就会霸占RAM，并使系统不可用。在现实世界中，你总得考虑到这些可能性。但在本教程中，这种方法可以接受。 - -我们需要一个结构函数来描述缓冲区。内核提供了许多常规的数据结构：链接列表（双联的），哈希表，树等等之类。然而，缓冲区常常从零开始实施。我们将调用我们的“struct buffer”： - - struct buffer { - char *data, *end, *read_ptr; - unsigned long size; - }; - -**data**是该缓冲区存储的一个指向字符串的指针，而最后部分是字符串结尾后的第一个字节。**read_ptr**是**read()**开始读取数据的地方。缓冲区大小为了完整性而存储 —— 目前，我们还没有使用该区域。你不能假设使用你结构体的用户会正确地初始化所有这些东西，所以最好在函数中封装缓冲区分配和解除。它们通常命名为**buffer_alloc()**和**buffer_free()**。 - - static struct buffer *buffer_alloc(unsigned long size) - { - struct buffer *buf; - buf = kzalloc(sizeof(*buf), GFP_KERNEL); - if (unlikely(!buf)) - goto out; - ... - out: - return buf; - } - -内核内存使用**kmalloc()**来分配，并使用**kfree()**来释放；**kzalloc()**的风格是将内存设置为全零。不同于标准的**malloc()**，它的内核对应部分收到的标志指定了第二个参数中请求的内存类型。这里，**GFP_KERNEL**是说我们需要一个普通的内核内存（不是在DMA或高内存中）以及函数可以按需睡眠（重新编排进程）。**sizeof(*buf)**是一种常见的方式，它用来获取可通过指针访问的结构体的大小。 - -你应该随时检查**kmalloc()**的返回值：解应用NULL指针将导致内核异常。同时也需要注意**unlikely()**宏的使用。它（及其相对宏**likely()**）被广泛用于内核中，用于表明条件几乎总是真的（或假的）。它不会影响到控制流，但是能帮助现代处理器通过分支预测技术来提升性能。 - -最后，注意**gotos**。它们常常为认为是邪恶的，但是，Linux内核（以及一些其它系统软件）采用它们来实施集中式的函数退出。这样的结果是减少嵌套深度，使代码更具可读性，而且非常像更高级语言中的**try-catch**区块。 - -有了**buffer_alloc()**和**buffer_free()**，**open**和**close**方法就变得很简单了。 - - static int reverse_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *file) - { - int err = 0; - file->private_data = buffer_alloc(buffer_size); - ... - return err; - } - -**struct file**是一个标准的内核数据结构，用以存储打开的文件的信息，如当前文件位置（**file->fpos**),标志(**file->flags**），或者打开模式（**file->fmode**)。另外一个字段**file->privatedata**用于关联文件到一些专有数据，它的类型是void *，而且它在文件拥有者以外对内核不透明。我们将一个缓冲区存储在那里。 - -如果缓冲区分配失败，我们通过返回否定值（**-ENOMEM**）来为调用的用户空间代码标明。 - -#### 学会读写 #### - -“read”和“write”方法是真正完成工作的地方。当数据写入到缓冲区时，我们就丢弃它里头先前的内容，并在没有任何临时存储时将短语恢复原状。**read**方法仅仅是从内核缓冲区复制数据到用户空间。但是如果缓冲区还没有数据，**reverseread()**会做什么呢？在用户空间中，**read()**调用会在有可用数据前阻塞它。在内核中，你必须等待。幸运的是，有一项机制用于处理这种情况，就是‘wait queues’。 - -想法很简单。如果当前进程需要等待某个事件，它的描述符（**struct task_struct**存储为‘current’）被放进非可运行（睡眠中）状态，并添加到一个队列中。然后**schedule()**就被调用来选择另一个进程运行。生成事件的代码通过使用队列将等待进程放回**TASKRUNNING**状态来唤醒它们。调度程序将在以后在某个地方选择它们之一。Linux有多种非可运行状态，最值得注意的是**TASKINTERRUPTIBLE**（一个可以通过信号中断的睡眠）和**TASKKILLABLE**（一个可被杀死的睡眠中的进程）。所有这些都应该正确处理，并等待队列为你做这些事。 - -一个用以存储读取等待队列头的天然场所就是结构缓冲区，所以从为它添加**wait_queue_head_t read_queue**字段开始。你也应该包含**linux/sched.h**。可以使用DECLARE_WAITQUEUE()宏来静态声明一个等待队列。在我们这种情况下，需要动态初始化，因此添加下面这行到**buffer_alloc()**： - - init_waitqueue_head(&buf->read_queue); - -我们等待可用数据；或者等待**read_ptr != end**条件成立。我们也想要让等待操作可以被中断（如，通过Ctrl+C）。因此，“read”方法应该像这样开始： - - static ssize_t reverse_read(struct file *file, char __user * out, - size_t size, loff_t * off) - { - struct buffer *buf = file->private_data; - ssize_t result; - while (buf->read_ptr == buf->end) { - if (file->f_flags & O_NONBLOCK) { - result = -EAGAIN; - goto out; - } - if (wait_event_interruptible - (buf->read_queue, buf->read_ptr != buf->end)) { - result = -ERESTARTSYS; - goto out; - } - } - ... - -我们让它循环，直到有可用数据，如果没有则使用**wait_event_interruptible()**（它是一个宏，不是函数，这就是为什么要给队列传递值）来等待。好吧，如果**wait_event_interruptible()**被中断，它返回一个非0值，这个值代表**-ERESTARTSYS**。这段代码意味着系统调用应该重新启动。**file->f_flags**检查以非阻塞模式打开的文件数：如果没有数据，返回**-EAGAIN**。 - -我们不能使用**if()**来替代**while()**，因为可能有许多进程正等待数据。当**write**方法唤醒它们时，调度程序选择一个来以不可预知的方式运行，因此，在这段代码有机会执行的时候，缓冲区可能再次空出。现在，我们需要将数据从**buf->data** 复制到用户空间。**copytouser()**内核函数就干了此事： - - size = min(size, (size_t) (buf->end - buf->read_ptr)); - if (copy_to_user(out, buf->read_ptr, size)) { - result = -EFAULT; - goto out; - } - -如果用户空间指针错误，那么调用可能会失败；如果发生了此事，我们就返回**-EFAULT**。记住，不要相信任何来自内核外的事物！ - - buf->read_ptr += size; - result = size; - out: - return result; - } - -为了让数据能读入到专有组块中，需要进行简单运算。该方法返回读入的字节数，或者一个错误代码。 - -写方法更简短。首先，我们检查缓冲区是否有足够的空间，然后我们使用**copy_from_userspace()**函数来获取数据。再然后**read_ptr**和结束指针会被重置，缓冲区内容会被撤销掉： - - buf->end = buf->data + size; - buf->read_ptr = buf->data; - if (buf->end > buf->data) - reverse_phrase(buf->data, buf->end - 1); - -这里， **reverse_phrase()**干了所有吃力的工作。它依赖于**reverse_word()**函数，该函数相当简短并且标记为内联。这是另外一个常见的优化；但是，你不能过度使用。因为积极的内联会导致内核映像徒然增大。 - -最后，我们需要唤醒**read_queue**中等待数据的进程，就跟先前讲过的那样。**wake_up_interruptible()**就是用来干此事的： - - wake_up_interruptible(&buf->read_queue); - -唷！你现在已经有了一个内核模块，它至少已经编译成功了。现在，是时候来测试了。 - -### 调试内核代码 ### - -> 或许，内核中最常见的调试方法就是打印。如果你愿意，你可以使用普通的**printk()** （假定使用**KERN_DEBUG**日志等级）。然而，那儿还有更好的办法。如果你正在写一个设备驱动，这个设备驱动有它自己的“struct device”，可以使用**pr_debug()**或者**dev_dbg()**：它们支持动态调试（**dyndbg**）特性，并可以根据需要启用或者禁用（请查阅**Documentation/dynamic-debug-howto.txt**）。对于单纯的开发消息，使用**prdevel()**，该函数没有操作符，除非设置了DEBUG。要为我们的模块启用DEBUG，请添加以下行到Makefile中： - -> CFLAGS_reverse.o := -DDEBUG -> -> 完了之后，使用**dmesg**来查看**pr_debug()**或**pr_devel()**生成的调试信息。 -> 或者，你可以直接发送调试信息到控制台。要想这么干，你可以设置**console_loglevel**内核变量为8或者更大的值（**echo 8 /proc/sys/kernel/printk**），或者在高日志等级，如**KERN_ERR**，来临时打印要查询的调试信息。很自然，在发布代码前，你应该移除这样的调试声明。 - -> 注意出现在控制台的内核消息，而不要在Xterm这样的终端模拟器窗口中去查看；那也是你在内核开发时，经常会建议你不要再X环境下进行的原因。 - -### 惊喜，惊喜！ ### - -编译模块，然后加载进内核： - - $ make - $ sudo insmod reverse.ko buffer_size=2048 - $ lsmod - reverse 2419 0 - $ ls -l /dev/reverse - crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 10, 58 Feb 22 15:53 /dev/reverse - -一切似乎就位。现在，要测试模块是否正常工作，我们将写一段小程序来翻转它的第一个命令行参数。**main()**（没有错误检查）可能看上去像这样： - - int fd = open("/dev/reverse", O_RDWR); - write(fd, argv[1], strlen(argv[1])); - read(fd, argv[1], strlen(argv[1])); - printf("Read: %s\n", argv[1]); - -像这样运行： - - $ ./test 'A quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog' - Read: dog lazy the over jumped fox brown quick A - -它工作正常！玩得更逗一点：试试传递单个单词或者单个字母的短语，空的字符串或者是非英语字符串（如果你有这样的键盘布局设置），以及其它任何东西。 - -现在，让我们让事情变得更好玩一点。我们将创建两个进程，它们共享一个文件描述符（因而还有内核缓冲区）。其中一个会持续写入字符串到设备，而另一个将读取这些字符串。在下例中，我们使用了**fork(2)**系统调用，而pthreads也很好用。我也忽略了打开和关闭设备，以及错误检查部分的代码（又来了）： - - char *phrase = "A quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog"; - if (fork()) - /* Parent is the writer */ - while (1) - write(fd, phrase, len); - else - /* child is the reader */ - while (1) { - read(fd, buf, len); - printf("Read: %s\n", buf); - } - -你希望这个程序会输出什么呢？下面就是在我的笔记本上得到的东西： - - Read: dog lazy the over jumped fox brown quick A - Read: A kcicq brown fox jumped over the lazy dog - Read: A kciuq nworb xor jumped fox brown quick A - Read: A kciuq nworb xor jumped fox brown quick A - ... - -这里发生了什么呢？举行了一场比赛。我们认为**read**和**write**是很小的，或者从头到尾一次执行一个指令。然而，内核是并发的野兽，它可以很容易地重排**reverse_phrase()**函数内部某个地方运行着的内核模式部分的写入操作。如果进行**read()**操作的进程在写入操作结束前就被编排进去，就会产生数据不连续状态。这些bug非常难以排除。但是，怎样来处理这个问题呢？ - -基本上，我们需要确保在写方法返回前没有**read**方法能被执行。如果你曾经编写过一个多线程的应用程序，你可能见过同步原语（锁），如互斥锁或者信号。Linux也有这些，但有些细微的差别。内核代码可以运行在进程条件中（“代表”用户空间代码工作，就像我们的方法那样）以及运行在中断条件中（例如，在IRQ处理器中）。如果你的程序处于进程条件中，并且你需要的锁已经被拿走，你的程序就会睡眠并重试直至成功。在中断条件中是无法睡眠的，因此代码在循环中流转，直到有可用的锁为止。关联原语被称为自旋锁，但在我们的环境中，一个简单的互斥锁 —— 在特定时间内只有唯一一个进程能“占有”的对象 —— 就足够了。处于性能方面的考虑，现实的代码可能也会使用读-写信号。 - -锁总是保护某些数据（在我们的环境中，是一个“struct buffer”实例），而且也常常会把它们嵌入到它们所保护的结构体中。因此，我们添加一个互斥锁（‘struct mutex lock’）到“struct buffer”中。我们也必须用**mutex_init()**来初始化互斥锁；**buffer_alloc**是用来处理这件事的好地方。使用互斥锁的代码也必须包含**linux/mutex.h**。 - -互斥锁很像交通信号灯 —— 除非驱动查看并跟踪信号，否则它没什么用。因此，在对缓冲区做操作并在操作完成时释放它之前，我们需要更新**reverse_read()**和**reverse_write()**来获取互斥锁。让我们来看看**read**方法 —— **write**的工作原理相同： - - static ssize_t reverse_read(struct file *file, char __user * out, - size_t size, loff_t * off) - { - struct buffer *buf = file->private_data; - ssize_t result; - if (mutex_lock_interruptible(&buf->lock)) { - result = -ERESTARTSYS; - goto out; - } - -我们在函数一开始就获取锁。**mutex_lock_interruptible()**要么抓取互斥锁然后返回，要么让进程睡眠，直到有可用的互斥锁。就像前面一样，**_interruptible**后缀意味着睡眠可以由信号来中断。 - - while (buf->read_ptr == buf->end) { - mutex_unlock(&buf->lock); - /* ... wait_event_interruptible() here ... */ - if (mutex_lock_interruptible(&buf->lock)) { - result = -ERESTARTSYS; - goto out; - } - } - -下面是我们的“等待数据”循环。当持有互斥锁，或者发生称之为“死锁”的情境时，不应该让进程睡眠。因此，如果没有数据，我们释放互斥锁并调用**wait_event_interruptible()**。当它返回时，我们重新获取互斥锁并像往常一样继续： - - if (copy_to_user(out, buf->read_ptr, size)) { - result = -EFAULT; - goto out_unlock; - } - ... - out_unlock: - mutex_unlock(&buf->lock); - out: - return result; - -最后，当函数结束，或者在互斥锁被占有过程中发生错误时，互斥锁被解锁。重新编译模块（别忘了重新加载），然后再次进行测试。现在你应该没发现毁坏的数据了。 - -### 接下来是什么？ ### -现在，你体验了一把内核侵入。我们刚刚为你揭开了今天话题的外衣，里面还有更多东西供你探索。我们的第一个模块是有意识地写得简单一点，在从中学到的概念在更复杂的环境中也一样。并发、方法表、注册回调函数、使进程睡眠以及唤醒进程，这些都是内核黑客们耳熟能详的东西，而现在你已经看过了它们的运作。或许某天，你的内核代码也将被加入到主线Linux源代码树中 —— 如果真这样，请联系我们！ - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -via: http://www.linuxvoice.com/be-a-kernel-hacker/ - -译者：[GOLinux](https://github.com/GOLinux) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) - -本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 - -[1]:http://www.libusb.org/ -[2]:http://fuse.sf.net/ -[3]:http://www.linuxvoice.com/be-a-kernel-hacker/www.netfilter.org/projects/libnetfilter_queue -[4]:http://lxr.free-electrons.com/ \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/translated/tech/20140607 How To Install iCup 2014 In Linux.md b/translated/tech/20140607 How To Install iCup 2014 In Linux.md deleted file mode 100644 index 1c11d6f7e8..0000000000 --- a/translated/tech/20140607 How To Install iCup 2014 In Linux.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,33 +0,0 @@ -用iCup在linux追世界杯 -================================================================================ -![](http://180016988.r.cdn77.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/icup2014-790x389.png) - -嗨，Linux 极客们， - -在本文简短的叙述中，我将教你如何在Linux中安装一个非常棒的2014FIFA世界杯APP。这个应用叫iCup，支持Windows，Mac以及伟大的Linux。 - -我看足球比赛已经有很长的时间了，所以我得我的电脑上安装这样的应用来保持更新2014世界杯的最新情况。我不想在我朋友们面前看起来一无所知。iCup应用正好提供了每一场赛程、比分、球队教练组等信息。更有提供实时比赛更新，给你正在进行的比赛的最新数据。 - -### 支持一下功能： ### - -- 30种语言支持，完全本地化（使用语言菜单选择） -- 可以随意调整窗口大小的独家灵活的界面 -- 可按天、阶段检索的比赛日历 -- 可视化分组 -- 支持自动转变比赛时间来适应本地时间和格式 -- 一键化社交网络发表比赛评论（支持Facebook，Google+和Twitter） -- 支持代理（支持基本认证和摘要认证方法） - -我已经在Ubuntu12.04LTS上测试并且运很好！目前为止，我没有经历过任何错误或崩溃。你可以十分轻松地安装这个很棒的应用，通过[官方网站][1]你可以得到压缩包，然后你可以解压到任何你喜欢的地方。解压完成后，双击iCup 2014 FREE- Brazil运行。 - -iCup 对我非常有用，我希你也能享受到。 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -via: http://www.unixmen.com/install-icup-2014-linux/ - -译者：[Vic020](http://www.vicyu.net) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) - -本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 - -[1]:http://www.e-link.it/icup/brazil2014/icup-brazil-2014-desktop-app.php \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/translated/tech/20140610 How to set up Internet connection sharing with iptables on Linux.md b/translated/tech/20140610 How to set up Internet connection sharing with iptables on Linux.md deleted file mode 100644 index 3027c6a535..0000000000 --- a/translated/tech/20140610 How to set up Internet connection sharing with iptables on Linux.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,163 +0,0 @@ -Translating by yujianxuechuan,占坑 -How to set up Internet connection sharing with iptables on Linux -怎样使用linux的iptables工具进行网络共享 -================================================================================ -In this tutorial, I'll explain how to share a single Internet connection among multiple devices on Linux. While consumer-grade WiFi routers have become mainstream nowadays, making this problem a non-issue, suppose you don't have one at home. However, say you have a Linux box already assembled with a modem and a LAN card. The modem is connected to the Internet with a dynamic public IP address, and the LAN card connected to your switch/hub. Other devices (Linux/Windows PC, laptop) are connected to the switch without having any Internet connection. To share the Internet connection of the Linux box, you have to turn the box into a gateway, so that it can relay traffic to and from other devices. -在本教程中，我将解释多个设备怎样在linux下共享一个网络连接。目前无线路由器已经成为主流的消费品，从而解决了本文这一问题，假设你家中并没有一台无线路由器。然而，你却有一台已经有"猫"和局lan网卡的的linux主机。"猫"是以动态公有IP地址的模式连接的互联网，主机的lan网卡连接到你的交换机或者集线器。其他设备（如linux或者windows的PC或者笔记本）以网桥的形式连接并无互联网连接。为了共享linux主机的互联网，你必须把主机摄制成网关，于是它才能实现从其他设备中传送和接受信息。 -### Glossary of Terms ### -术语字汇 -- **Private IP address** (non-routeable address) is an IP address used for a Local Area Network (not visible through Internet). -- **Public IP address** (routeable address) is an IP address that is visible through Internet. -- **IP masquerading** is a function that allows set of machines to reach the Internet via a MASQ gateway.

Activate IP forwarding #### -1、激活IP转发 -In order to set up Internet connection sharing, you need to enable IP forwarding on the Linux box with a kernel parameter. Startup kernel parameters stored in /etc/sysctl.conf. -为了设置网络共享，你需要在linux主机上更改一个内核参数来使能IP转发功能。内核启动参数设定在/etc/sysctl.conf文件中。 -Open the file, and locate line with the following parameter "# net.ipv4.ip_forward = 0". Remove hash mark (i.e., uncomment it), and set the value to 1. It should look like the following: -打开这个文件，定位到含有"# net.ipv4.ip_forward = 0"的这一行，移除#号（即取消注释），然后将其值设置为1，改好之后应该和下面的一致。 - net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1 - -You may also activate IP forwaring at run time by the following command: -你还要使激活IP转发功能生效，通过执行下面的命令： - $ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 - $ sudo sysctl -p - -#### 2. NAT configuration #### -2、NAT配置 -Another important part of Internet connection sharing is NAT configuration which can be done using iptables command. iptables maintains four firewall tables: -另一个网络共享的重要部分是NAT配置，这可以通过使用iptables的命令，iptables包含四个防火墙的表格： -- FILTER (the default table) -- NAT -- MANGLE -- RAW -- FILTER (默认表格) -- NAT -- MANGLE -- RAW - -In this tutorial we will use only two tables: FILTER and NAT tables. -这个教程中我们将仅使用两个表格：FILTER和NAT表格。 -First, flush all active firewall rules. -首先，刷新所有活跃的防火墙的规则。 - $ sudo iptables -X - $ sudo iptables -F - $ sudo iptables -t nat -X - $ sudo iptables -t nat -F - -On the INPUT table, you have to set chain FORWARD to ACCEPT target, so all packets passed through the box will be processed correctly. -在输入表格中，你需要设置转发链成可接受的目的地，因此艘游通过主机的数据包将会被正确的处理。 - $ sudo iptables -I INPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT - $ sudo iptables -I FORWARD -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT - -On the NAT table, you have to enable IP masquerading for your WAN interface.

Configuring a private IP address #### -3、配置私有IP地址 -After all configuration is completed on the Linux box, you have to configure the DNS server and default gateway of other devices (Linux/Windows PC, laptop), so that they point to the Linux box. Note that you don't need to set up a DNS server on the Linux box.

Managing Vim extensions with NeoBundle.md @@ -0,0 +1,86 @@ +教你用NeoBundle管理Vim插件 +================================================================================ +[NeoBundle][1] 是一个 [Vim][2] 的插件管理器，以 [Vundle][3] 为基础（Vundle 是一个基于 [Pathogen][4] 的 Vim 插件管理器）。在之前的文章中，我[非常不推荐使用 Neobundle][5]，原因是它当时还处于高速开发阶段（LCTT：意味着不稳定、变数大），并且当时它的英文文档很少。现在，已经过了一年多了，这两个问题都早已不再是问题。 + +我们为什么要使用插件管理器？Vim 支持大量插件，但是由于它没有严格定义框架，插件的文件可以胡乱分布在不同目录下，导致用户管理起来会很困难（LCTT：当然，前提是你有很多插件，还有点小小的强迫症，觉得理一理这些插件心里会舒服点）。而一款插件管理器能让管理变得简单许多。Pathogen, Vundle 和 NeoBundle 的工作就是为不同插件建立一个目录，然后将这些目录扔到 ~/.vim/bundle 目录下。这个文件整理方法可以让你方便彻底地删除插件，使用 'rm -rf <插件目录>' 或直接 'Ctrl + Del' 组合键把插件所在的目录删除就可以了，绝对绿色环保无残留。同时，这种方法还能最大程度避免插件与插件之间的不兼容性。 + +NeoBundle 是一个基于 Vundle 的项目，如同 Vundle，它们都可以安装和升级插件。然而 NeoBundle 的说明文件上明确指出：“NeoBundle 不是一个稳定的插件管理器，如果你想要一个稳定的，请选择 Vundle”。最新的 release-note 上也有警“可能会造成兼容性问题”——这是一个开发者写的注解，说明这个管理器还不能让人放心使用。 + +所以，我们为什么要使用 NeoBundle？它都不能保证稳定运行！好吧，它还是有可取之处的。Vundle 只支持 [Git][6] 这种版本控制系统，而 NeoBundle 可以支持 [Subversion][7] 和 [Mercurial][8]。另一个原因是如果你不想插件升级时破坏你的 Vim 生态环境，你可以锁住 NeoBundle，让它只使用某个插件的固定版本。 + +另外，NeoBundle 创建者，Shougo Matsuishita（LCTT：名字看着像日本人），正在将它的命令接口添加到其他插件项目，以便减少他们的命令使用量。现在 NeoBundle 支持3种插件：[unite.vim][9]，Vim 使用的文件和缓存管理器；[vimshell.vim][10]，Vim 使用的脚本程序；[vimproc.vim][11]，运行于 vimshell.vim 中，用于对异步事件的支持。上面说的都是特殊案例，缺少英文文档，所以用户希望有人能完善它们。在正式使用它们之前，我们需要把注意力先集中在一些基本操作上。 + +### 安装并初始化 NeoBundle ### + +NeoBundle 依赖 Vim 7.2.051 或更高版本，依赖 git，依赖 [cURL][12]（用于下载文件）。你可以手动下载 NeoBundle，也可以使用 cURL 下载它在 GitHub 上的库。在你的 home 目录下使用如下命令，可以将 NeoBundle 插件下载到 .vim/bundle/neobundle.vim 目录里，然后 NeoBundle 就能管理它自己了。 + + curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Shougo/neobundle.vim/master/bin/install.sh | sh + +你还需要修改 .vimrc 文件。NeoBundle 的 GitHub 主页提供一个 .vimrc 范本，使用这个范本后，NeoBundle 会为你下载5个插件。如果不需要它们，你可以使用下面的最小配置： + + if has('vim_starting') + set nocompatible + set runtimepath+=~/.vim/bundle/neobundle.vim/ + call neobundle#begin(expand('~/.vim/bundle/')) + NeoBundleFetch 'Shougo/neobundle.vim' + call neobundle#end() + filetype plugin indent on + +上述配置的作用是：启动 NeoBundle 并且像其他插件一样升级自己。NeoBundle 默认从 GitHub 下载并升级，如果你正好在使用 GitHub，你只需要为这个插件指定维护者的用户名和路径。在上面的配置中，NeoBundleFetch 只需要指定为“Shougo/neobundle.vim”，而不是完整的 GitHub 路径。如果你想使用其他网站，比如是 Subversion 或 Mecurial 的网站，你就需要添加完整的 URL。 + +如果你想安装其他插件，你可以使用下面的命令： + + curl -k https://github.com/[项目维护者]/[插件路径] > ~/.vim/bundle/[插件路径] + +举个例子：你想安装 [vim-abolish][13]，一个超级 NB 的文本搜索和替换插件，就使用下面的命令： + + curl -k https://github.com/tpope/vim-abolish > ~/.vim/bundle/abolish + +如果要让它自动升级，在 NeoBundleFetch 那行下面添加一行： + + NeoBundle 'tpope/vim-abolish' + +再介绍一个小技巧：你可以为插件指定一个分支或版本号。什么意思？NeoBundle 只会关注这个插件的某个分支或版本的更新，而忽略其他更新。如果你使用的某个插件处于高速开发过程，你就可以使用这个技巧，避免用到有 bug 的插件版本。举个例子： + + NeoBundle 'Shougo/vimshell', { 'rev' : '3787e5' } + +还有一个技巧：在 .vimtc 文件内添加一行关于“NeoBundleCheck”的属性。NeoBundle 会检查被卸载的插件，并提示你安装它们。你也可以使用命令“:NeoBundleInstall”（LCTT：这是要在 Vim 编辑器的命令模式下输入）来安装或升级插件。 + +### NeoBundle 用法 ### + +很多 NeoBundle 命令用起来和 Vundle 类似，但命令的名字不一样。下面是 NeoBundle 命令的用法： + +- `:NeoBundleUpdate`：安装或升级插件，如果你手动把一个插件的目录删除了，这个命令会重新安装这个插件。在这个命令后面加上插件名称，就只升级一个插件；不加参数，会将所有己安装但没被记录在案的插件给记录下来。“:NeoBundleInstall”命令效果相同。 +- `:NeoBundle {REPOSITORY URI} [[REVISION}] [,OPTIONS}]]`：将一个插件锁定到固定版本，防止胡乱升级。 +- `:NeoBundleList`：列出所有未初始化的插件。 +- `:NeoBundleClean`：进入交互界面，删除插件。 + +这些命令在配合 unite.vim （LCTT：就是上面举过的32个例子之一）使用时，效果会稍微有些出入。你可以使用“:help neobundle”命令了解更多信息。 + +### 是否使用 NeoBundle，自己决定 ### + +NeoBundle 是强大的工具，正处于高速开发状态。任何处于这种状态的项目，都会被帖上“有前途”和“不稳定”两个标签，看你自己怎么选。如果你想要最新的稳定版本的插件，NeoBundle 可以让 Vundle 和 Pathogen 永远保持在老界面。 + +然而在线帮助文档已经给出警告，它不是个稳定的产品，不及时更新版本可能造成一些插件运行出错。最后，你需要在 .vimrc 文件为你的 Neoundle 和其他插件指定一个稳定的版本。记住这警告，然后你可以在使用这些尖端技术产品时游刃有余。 +

Git自动补全 ### + +如果你在命令行环境中运行Git命令，每次都手动地逐个输入命令是一件很无聊的事。为此，你可以花几分钟时间配置一下Git命令的自动补全功能。 + +在*nix系统运行下列命令下载自动补全脚本： + + cd ~ + curl

~/.git-completion.bash + fi + +尽管我之前已经提到过，但我还是想再强调一下：如果你想使用完整的Git特性，你绝bi应该切换到命令行环境。 + +### 2. 在Git中忽略文件 ### + +你是不是对出现在你Git库里面的编译生成文件（比如`.pyc`)感到很无语？或者你是不是很厌恶不小心将他们添加到了Git？直接看这里，这里有一个方法可以让你告诉Git忽略所有这些文件和目录。只需要创建一个名字为`.gitignore`的文件，里面列出你不想要Git跟踪的文件和目录。可以用感叹号(!)列出例外情况。 + + *.pyc + *.exe + my_db_config/ + + !main.pyc + +### 3. 谁动了我的代码？ ### + +当事情出了乱子时立马责怪别人这是人类的天性。如果你的服务器程序不能正常工作了，要找出罪魁祸首是非常简单的--只需要执行`git blame`。这个命令告诉你文件里的每一行的作者是谁，最后改动那一行的提交，以及提交的时间戳。 + + git blame [file_name] + +![git blame

repository](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946441git-ninja-02.png) + +### 4. 查看库的历史 ### + +在之前的教程里，我们已经看过了如何使用`git log`命令。不管怎样，有3个选项你应该知道。 + +- **--oneline** - 压缩每次的提交信息，只保留一个缩减的Hash值和说明文字，然后把这些都展示在一行里。 +- **--graph** - 这个选项将在左边画出一个文字界面的提交历史图。如果你只有一个分支，用这个选项查看历史时是没什么意义的。 +- **--all** - 显示所有分支历史。 + +这是这3个选项合起来使用的效果： + +![Use of git log with all, graph and oneline](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946444git-ninja-03.png) + +### 5. 不要丢失对某个提交的跟踪 ### + +假设你提交了一些不需要的东西，然后你进行了hard重置回到之前的状态。后来，你发现在这个过程中你丢失了其他一些重要的信息，你想要把这些信息找回来，或者至少可以查看一下这些信息。这就需要`git reflog`帮忙。 + +简单的`git log`只能告诉你最近的提交，这个提交的父提交，父提交的父提交，等等。但是`git reflog`是一个HEAD指向的提交的列表。记住，这个列表依赖于你自己的操作环境，它不是库的一部分，也不包含在push或者merge中。 + +如果执行`git log`命令，可以看到提交历史，这是我的库的一部分： + +![Project history](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946446git-ninja-04.png) + +但是，`git reflog`命令显示了一个被我用hard重置丢掉的提交(`b1b0ee9`-`HEAD@{4}`). + +![Git reflog](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946447git-ninja-05.png) + +### 6. 暂存文件的一部分更改以便进行一次提交 ### + +通常依据特性来提交是一个好的实践方法，意思是说，每一个提交都只添加一个特性或者修复一个bug。想一下如果你一次修复了两个bug或者添加了两个特性但是都还没有提交该怎么办。这种场景下，你可以将他们一起提交。但是有一个更好的办法：单独暂存这些文件，然后分开提交。 + +让我们假设你对一个文件做了多个更改，然后想让这些更改分开提交。这时，我们用带`-p`的添加命令。 + + git add -p [file_name] + +我们来试试这种用法。我添加了3个新行到`file_name`，但是我只想让第1行和第3行出现在我的提交里。让我们看看`git diff`的输出是什么样的。 + +![Changes in repo](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946449git-ninja-06.png) + +然后，我们看看带`-p`选项的`add`命令会发生什么。 + +![Running add with

退出或者跳转到下一个文件 +- 输入 s 分割块 + +在我们这个例子中，我们想把这个块分割成更小的部分，然后选择其中一些忽略另外一些。 + +![Adding all hunks](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946452git-ninja-08.png) + +如你所见，我们已经添加了第1和第3行，忽略了第2行。你可以看到库的状态并且进行一次提交。 + +![Repository after selectively adding a file](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946454git-ninja-09.png) + +### 7. 合并多个提交 ### + +为了进行核查或者发起一个合并请求（这经常发生在开源项目里），对代码进行了修改提交。但在最后代码被接受之前，你也许会被要求修改你的代码。于是你修改代码，但是下一次核查的时候又一次被要求进行修改。不知不觉中，你就已经有了好几个提交。理论上你应该用rebase命令把他们合并起来。 + + git rebase -i HEAD~[number_of_commits] + +如果你想合并最后的两次提交，你应该运行下面的命令。 + + git rebase -i HEAD~2 + +一旦你运行这个命令，你将进入一个交互式界面，它将询问你想要合并哪些提交。你`pick`(拣选)最近的提交然后`squash`(合并)旧的提交。 + +![Git squash interactive](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946455git-ninja-10.png) + +接着你被要求提供一个对新提交的说明。这个过程会重写你的提交历史。 + +![Adding a commit message](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946457git-ninja-11.png) + +### 8. 储藏没有提交的更改 ### + +假设你正在修复一个bug或者添加一个特性，突然你被要求展示一下你的工作成果。你现在的工作还没有完成，不够进行一次提交。这时，`git stash`命令可以用来急救一下。Stash命令跟踪你所有的更改，然后把他们储藏起来以便以后使用。命令如下- + + git stash + +可以多次储藏更改，查看储藏列表，你可以运行下面的命令： + + git stash list + +![Stash list](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946458git-ninja-12.png) + +如果你想取消储藏，覆盖当前的更改，你可以通过下面的命令使用储藏： + + git stash apply + +在最后的这个截图里，你可以看到每个储藏都有一个标识符，是一个唯一的数字（尽管在这里我们只有一个储藏）。如果你想使用某个储藏，你在apply命令后面加上这个唯一的标识符： + + git stash apply stash@{2} + +![After un-stashing changes](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946461git-ninja-13.png) + +### 9. 检查丢失的提交 ### + +尽管`reflog`是一种检查丢失提交的方法，大型的库里却不太实用。这个时候，应该用`fsck`（文件系统检查）命令。 + + git fsck --lost-found + +![Git fsck results](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946463git-ninja-14.png) + +这里你可以看到一个丢失的提交。你可以通过`git show [commit_hash]` 查看提交的更改或者通过运行`git merge [commit_hash]`命令进行恢复。 + +`git fsck`跟`reflog`命令相比有一个优点。假设你删除了一个远程分支，然后clone了这个库。用`fsck`命令你可以找到并且恢复这个删除的远程分支。 + +### 10. 最佳选择 ### + +之前我已经存记下了那些最优雅的Git命令。但是目前为止，`cherry-pick`命令是我最喜欢的Git命令，因为它直白的名字和实用的功能！ + +最简单的情况下，`cherry-pick`从另一个分支里选出单独的一个提交，然后合并到当前分支。如果你正并行工作在两个或者更多的分支上，你也许会发现一个存在于所有分支上的bug。如果你解决了一个分支上的这个bug，你可以拣选这个对应的提交应用到其他分支上，而不会弄乱其他文件或者提交。 + +让我们来考虑一个可以使用这个命令的场景。我有两个分支，我想拣选`b20fd14: Cleaned junk`这个提交到另一个分支上。 + +![Before cherry pick](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946465git-ninja-15.png) + +我切换到想要应用这个拣选出来的提交的分支，然后运行下面的命令： + + git cherry-pick [commit_hash] + +![After cherry pick](http://dab1nmslvvntp.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/1402946467git-ninja-16.png) + +尽管这次我们很干净的用了`cherry-pick`命令，但你应该知道这个命令经常会引起冲突，所以请小心使用。 + +### 总结 ### + +到了这里，我们结束了这个能使你Git能力提升一个级别的列表。Git是最好的版本控制器，它能完成你能想象到的任何事情。所以，经常试着用Git挑战你自己。一不小心你就会学到很多新东西。 + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via:

+接下来你需要一个支持ipv6的路由器/调制解调器。额外地，你的ISP也必须支持ipv6。 + +除了检查网络设备的每一部分，最好查出你是否可以通过ipv6访问网站。 + +有很多网站可以检测你的连接是否支持ipv6. 这里就是个例子：[http://testmyipv6.com/][1] + +下面是在内核中启用ipv6的参数： + + $ sysctl net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 + net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 0 + + $ sysctl net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 + net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 0 + + $ sysctl net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6 + net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6 = 0 + +同样可以在proc文件中检查 + + $ cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6 + 0 + +注意这里的变量是控制ipv6的“禁用”。所以设置1就会禁用ipv6。 + +### 如果它不支持就禁用ipv6 ### + +如果你的网络设备中不支持ipv6，那最好就全部禁用它们。为什么？因为这回引起延迟域查询，在网络连接中不必要地尝试连接到ipv6地址导致延迟等等问题。 + +我也遇到过像这样的问题，apt-get命令偶尔会尝试连接到ipv6地址失败接着检索ipv4地址。看一下下面的输出。 + + $ sudo apt-get update + Ign http://archive.canonical.com

+我在其他的应用上也注意到了相似的问题，如Hexchat，同样Google Chrome也会有时会在查询域名的时候花费更长的时间。 + +所以最好的方案是完全禁用Ipv6来摆脱这些事情。这只需要一点点配置但可以帮助你解决很多你系统上的很多问题。用户甚至反应这可以加速网络。 + +#### 禁用 Ipv6 - 方案1 #### + +编辑文件 - /etc/sysctl.conf + + $

+================================================================================ +与在命令行中导航目录一样令人称道的是，很少有比一遍又一遍重复”cd ls cd ls cd ls……“更令人沮丧的事情了。如果你不是百分百确定你想要进入的下一个目录的名字，那么你不得不使用ls来确认，然后使用cd来进入你想要进的那一个。所幸的是，现在大量的终端和shell语言提供了强大的自动补全功能来处理该问题。但是，你仍然需要一直疯狂地敲击制表键来干这事。如果你和我一样懒惰，你就会对autojump十分痴迷。自动跳转是一个命令行工具，它允许你可以直接跳转到你喜爱的目录，而不用管你现在身在何处。 + +### 在Linux上安装autojump ### + +在Ubuntu或Debian上autojump： + + $ sudo apt-get install autojump + +要在CentOS或Fedora上安装autojump，请使用yum命令。在CentOS上，你需要先[启用EPEL仓库][1]。 + + $ sudo yum install autojump + +在Archlinux上安装autojump： + + $ sudo pacman -S autojump + +如果你找不到适合你的版本的包，你可以从[GitHub][2]上下载源码包来编译。 + +### autojump的基本用法 ### + +autojump的工作方式很简单：它会在你每次启动命令时记录你当前位置，并把它添加进它自身的数据库中。那样，某些目录比其它一些目录添加的次数多，这些目录一般就代表你最重要的目录，而它们的“weight”也会增大。 + +从那儿，你可以使用下面的语法来直接跳转到这些目录： + + autojump [name or partial name of the directory] + +注意，你不需要输入完整的名称，因为autojump会检索它的数据库，并返回最可能的结果。 + +例如，假定我们正在下面的目录结构中工作。 + +![](https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3921/14276240117_9f56b42fec_z.jpg) + +那么下面的命令将直接让你跳到/root/home/doc下，不管你当前位置在哪里。 + + $ autojump do + +如果你也很讨厌打字，那么我推荐你为autojump起个别名，或者使用默认的别名。 + + $ j [name or partial name of the directory] + +另外一个引人注目的功能是，autojump支持 + +还是同样的例子，输入： + + $ autojump d + +然后敲击tab键，将会返回/root/home/doc或者/root/home/ddl。 + +最后，对于高级用户，你可以访问目录数据库，并修改它的内容。它使得使用下面的命令来手动添加一个目录成为可能： + + $ autojump -a [directory] + +如果你突然想要把它变成你的最爱和使用最频繁的文件夹，你可以通过命令的内部参数来手工增加它的weight + + $ autojump -i [weight] + +这将使得该目录更可能被选择跳转。相反的例子是使用内部参数来减少weight： + + $ autojump -d [weight] + +要跟踪所有这些改变，输入： + + $ autojump -s + +这会显示数据库中的统计数据，然而： + + $ autojump --purge + +上面的命令将会把不再存在的目录从数据库移除。 + +简言之，autojump将会受到所有命令行高级用户的欢迎。不管你是在ssh进一台服务器，还是仅仅想要追随复古潮流，敲更少的键来减少导航时间总是件好事。如果你真的热衷于此类工具，你也肯定会看看[Fasd][3]，它应该会很称职。 + +你觉得autojump怎么样？你会经常用它么？发表一下你的评论吧。 +

+[OneDrive][1]（以前称为SkyDrive）是微软的一个广受欢迎的云存储产品。目前OneDrive为每一个新注册用户提供7GB免费存储空间。正如你所想，OneDrive与微软其他软件产品很好地集成。微软还提供了一个独立的OneDrive客户端，它会自动备份照相机拍摄的图片和视频到OneDrive。但你猜怎么着。该客户端可用于除Linux的各大PC/移动平台。

在linux上onedrive-d ### + +虽然onedrive-d最初是为Ubuntu/ Debian开发的，但它仍然支持CentOS/ Fedora的/ RHEL。 + +安装就像输入下面的命令一样容易。 + + + $ git clone https://github.com/xybu92/onedrive-d.git + $ cd onedrive-d + $ ./inst install + +### 第一次配置 ### + +安装之后，你需要进行一次性配置来授予onedrive-d对您OneDrive账户的读/写权限。 + +首先，创建将用于对远程OneDrive账户同步的本地文件夹。 + + $ mkdir ~/onedrive + +接着运行下面的命令开开启一次性配置。 + + $ onedrive-d + +它接着会弹出如下onedrive-d的设置窗口。在“Location”选项中，选择你之前创建的本地文件夹。在“Authentication”选项中，你会看见“You have not authenticated OneDrive-d yet”（“你还没有授权OneDrive-d”）的信息。现在点击"Connect to OneDrive.com"按钮。 +

+一种是“手动使用命令行来同步OneDrive”。就是当你需要与你的OneDrive账户同步时运行： + + $ onedrive-d + +`onedrive-d`接着将扫描本地文件夹与OneDrive帐户的内容并使两者同步。这意味着要么上传一个在本地文件夹新添加的文件，或者从远程OneDrive帐户下载最新发现的文件。如果你从本地文件夹删除任何文件，相应的文件将自动在与OneDrive帐户同步后被删除。同样的事情也会在相反的方向发生。 + +一旦同步完成，你可以使用Ctrl-C杀掉onedirve-d的前台运行进程。 + +![](https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5509/14283967750_b9ebf1b05d_z.jpg) + +另一种方法是将onedrive-d作为一个始终运行的守护进程在开机时自动启动。在这种情况下，后台守护进程会同时监视本地文件夹和OneDrive账户，以使它们保持同步。对于这一点，只需将onedrive-D加入到你桌面[自动启动程序列表][3]中就行了。 + +当onedrive-D作为守护进程在后台运行，你会在桌面状态栏中看到OneDrive图标，如下图所示。每当同步更新被触发，你就会看到一个桌面通知。 + +![](https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3924/14290119448_3b1144db77.jpg) + +要注意的是：根据作者所言，onedrive-d仍在积极开发中。这并不能用于任何形式的生产环境。如果您遇到任何bug，请随时提交一份[bug报告][4]。你的贡献，笔者将不胜感激。 + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via:

Google ### +让我们从一个巨头开始吧：Bing！好吧，只是开个玩笑，事实上应该是Google。坦白讲，你根本不需要使用命令行工具来进行Google搜索。只需要简简单单的一个命令： + + $ xdg-open https://www.google.com/search?q="[query]" + + +它会打开网页浏览器，并转到合适的搜索页面。然而，如果你想要的是从终端窗口查看搜索结果，而不是打开什么网页浏览器，那么我推荐你使用[cli-google][1]。它是一个超级老古董了（最后一次更新是在2009年），但我喜欢它。这是一个简单而直接的应用，它会忠实地干好它应该干的事。 + +安装完cli-google后，你就可以开始用它来搜索了，它的输出是那样的五彩斑斓。你也可以调整搜索结果的数量和你想要的语言，你只需要在终端中敲入： + + $ google + +就可以看到所有的选项了。 + +![](https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5491/14330385480_91b0e138ee_z.jpg) + +### 2. YouTube ### +关于Google，有太多的东西要放进列表来。我会尽量简明扼要，但绝不会放过该有的。对于许多人而言，YouTube是他们快速查找相关内容视频的首选。要在终端中完成此事，我则钟情于[mps-youtube][2]。这个软件可以让你在终端中搜索、下载视频，创建播放列表，以及查看关于视频的评论。安装完mps-youtube后，你可以使用下面的命令来启动： + + $ mpsyt + +然后，输入 h 来查看选项。要查看简明用法，你可以像下面这样： + + /[query] + +来搜索你想知道的一切，然后输入视频的编号来听听它的声音，或者输入： + + i [video-number] + +来看看相关信息，也可以输入： + + d [video-number] + +来下载它。如果你觉得光听还不过瘾，这里还有更好玩的： + + set player mplayer + set show_video True + +现在，你可以在另外一个窗口里头用mplayer来播放视频了。 + +![](https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2925/14517040865_1d54ccce3b_z.jpg) + +### 3. 维基百科 ### +与Google一样，对于维基百科，我也喜欢一个古老的脚本，它干的不赖：[cliWiki][3]。安装完后，赶紧运行一下看看： + + $ cliwiki + +然后，你就可以输入你想要搜索的内容了。如果有直接匹配的条目，终端中就会显示相关页面了。哈，输出内容可真够长的，建议你还是用less命令来看吧。当然，这不是最高效的方法，但你的母的只是想要查看与关键词相关的文本，那这就是你想要的。 + +![](https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2903/14330600657_065d26cdf2_z.jpg) + +### 4. 海盗湾 ### +现在，让我们聊聊龌龊的东西。网上有很多意想不到的（也许你不觉得）工具，可以帮助你在命令行下查找海盗湾上的种子。而在这其中，[pirate-get][4]是我的最爱。它里面蕴藏了大量的选项，你可以通过下面的命令来发现它们： + + $ pirate-get -h + +但是还是简单一些吧： + + $ pirate-get --color -c [category] [query] + +以上命令会返回与查询内容相关的特定搜索类目中的结果，输出结果也是彩色的！那里头，程序会提示你输入你想要的结果的编号，输入后就可以从磁链上下载种子了。简单又容易，仅限于没有版权的资料哦！ + +![](https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3923/14330448479_ae503561e6_z.jpg) + +### 5. Twitter ### +Twitter是迎合潮流的一个很好的搜索引擎。我们已经在[如何在命令行中访问Twitter][5]一文中介绍了它的用法，但是我个人更喜欢[TTYtter][6]。该工具及其强大，它应该有它自身的一席之地，而不再仅仅用于简单搜索了。但在这里，我只想把它当作搜索引擎使用。安装并配置完后，你就可以登陆进去，并使用下面的命令来搜索了： + + /search [query] + +界面在视觉上有点粗糙，但是你很快会习惯的。注意，这里头只能用普通的文字，也可以用哈希标记。 + +![](https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5077/14537153013_cc32a98b08_z.jpg) + +最后来小结一下吧，这里列出了我认为人们使用最多5大搜索引擎，这些搜索引擎都可以通过命令行来访问。这里Google图像和Google地图可能缺席了，但我想这些可能不能很好适应控制台环境吧。我也想要寻找一个音乐搜索引擎，但是没有找到对于本列表“有价值的”。就像你可能已经注意到的那样，列表中的工具在功能和选项上是良莠不齐的：其中一些很简单，而另外一些则功能很复杂。但不管怎么说，最后它们都还是完成了它们的任务。

thing it's doing" 操作的秒数. ‘command’项处于‘Sleep’ +状态的进程正在等待查询, 因此,它并没有消耗任何资源. 对于其他任何进程而言，‘Time’超过一定的秒数表明出现问题. + +在这种情况下,只能通过运行‘show processlist’命令来查询.如果我们有一个糟糕的写查询，让我们来看看情况如何: + + mysql> show processlist;

+啊哈！现在我们看到这里的查询几乎运行了30s. 如果我们不想让它继续运行，可以使用它的'Id'去执行kill命令: + + mysql> kill 132033; + Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) + mysql> + +(注意 由于我们没有改变任何数据,MySQL总是报告0行被影响.) + +明智的使用kill命令能够清除积压的查询.记住,但那不是一种永久的方法 - 如果这些查询来自你的应用,你需要去重写它们,或者将继续看到相同的问题. + +### 另请参阅 ### + +关于不同‘Command’的MySQL文档: + +- [https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/thread-commands.html][1] +
